You might recognize it as an ingredient in your favorite skin serums or perhaps noticed it injoint-supporting supplements, but what is collagen? What does collagen do, exactly, and how can you incorporate it into your life? It is the most abundant protein in our bodies, especially type 1 ...
Patrick would benefit from seeing a cardiologist on a regular basis as well as being involved in a healthy heart program which is often offered through hospitals. He may also benefit from seeing a dietitian to see if he can lower his cholesterol levels through diet. After he is treated and ...
So what does this mean for you? It means that increasing GH in the body and increasing IGF-1 too will help to build muscle mass and stimulate cellular renewal. That’s why HGH supplements that focus on both HGH and IGF-1 would be best in releasing HGH naturally and boosting muscle growt...
Fast food, a mainstay of American eating for decades, may have reached a plateau in the United States as the maturing baby-boom generation looks for a more varied menu. Fast foxed still represents a $102 billion a year industry, but growth has turned sluggish recently amid tough competition...
Keto uses macronutrient balances and calls for 90% fat, 6% protein, 4% carbs. These numbers can be adjusted, but the carb number is always the lowest, and fat is always the highest. That doesn’t mean you need to sit down and chug butter, though; the keto diet is very nuanced. Sinc...
The attributes were rated as follows, from most to least convincing: “innovative,”“environmentally friendly,”“healthy,”“nutritious,” and “high in protein.” Willingness to buy (WTB) microalgae-based “meat/fish substitutes” (e.g., microalgae-based sausage and fish balls) and “non-...
Additionally, there isn’t convincing evidence in my opinion that ketosis is crucial for the benefits of the diet. Yes, ketones are protein sparing but only when dietary protein intake is inadequate in the first place. When protein is set appropriately (e.g. 1-1.5 g/lb lean body mass as...
Fructose consumption and its implications on public health are currently under study. This work reviewed the metabolic fate of dietary fructose based on isotope tracer studies in humans. The mean oxidation rate of dietary fructose was 45.0% ± 10.7
Its mechanism of action is via G-protein activation central postsynaptic α2-adrenoreceptors, leading to inhibition of norepinephrine release, resulting in sedative, analgesic, opioid-sparing, and anxiolytic properties, as well as side effects such as hypotension or bradycardia.50,51 Dexmedetomidine has...
Thus, urate-lowering anti-hypertensives (e.g., calcium channel blockers or losartan) could be preferred to minimise gout risk [65,66], as could potassium-sparing diuretics [67]. 4.5. Chronic Kidney Disease CKD status was the largest mediator of the racial differences in male gout (46%) ...
