Podcasts about Bioavailability

In this episode of Daily Value, we look at recent research suggesting that the B12 levels we've always accepted as "normal" might silently be failing our brains. New data reveals that standard B12 thresholds may not adequately shield us from subtle neurological decline. Are current diagnostics overlooking hidden deficiencies? We go into how B12 truly supports your nervous system, the overlooked significance of active B12, and why traditional treatments might need reconsideration, particularly for those struggling with absorption. Perhaps the path to preserving cognitive health lies in rethinking what we thought we knew about vitamin B12.00:00 Introduction: Rethinking Vitamin B12 Levels00:33 Understanding Vitamin B1201:24 The Role of B12 in Neurological Health01:57 Causes and Consequences of B12 Deficiency03:00 Reevaluating B12 Sufficiency Standards04:40 New Research Insights on B12 and Cognitive Health07:30 Dietary Sources and Bioavailability of B1208:50 Supplementation and Treatment Strategies10:50 Challenges in Treating B12 Deficiency11:55 Conclusion: Towards Optimal Cognitive HealthPMID: 39927551PMID: 36774098PMID: 38987879Support the show

Can you love animals, care about the planet, and still feed your dog meat?In this listener-requested episode of our FETCH First Friday series, Stacey Renphrey and I have a grounded, grace-filled conversation on the vegan and lab-grown meat dog food debate—sparked by a recent Dragons' Den episode that funded a vegan kibble brand.Together, we explore the complexities, contradictions, and sacred responsibilities of feeding a carnivore in a world increasingly uncomfortable with the realities of nature, death, and biology.This episode isn't about shame or sides—it's about curiosity, critical thinking, and compassion as we examine the deeper stories at play behind the marketing, science, and ethics of what we put in our dogs' bowls.✨ Topics We Explore:What is a dog, really?
: Reconnecting with biology over belief, and why understanding your dog's physiology matters.The illusion of "clean" food:
How modern marketing disconnects us from the sacredness of death and the truth of nature.What wasn't said on Dragons' Den:
The missing context in the vegan dog food pitch—and why it matters.Bioavailability and the myth of macronutrient math:
Why feeding isn't just about numbers, and what gets lost in lab-based logic.Technocracy, control, and false saviours:
Questioning the rise of food technologies that promise utopia but often serve profit and power.Ethics without biology is ideology:
What happens when good intentions override physiological truths.Re-sacralising the bowl:
How to return reverence, relationship, and grounded ethics to the act of feeding your dog.Insects—innovation or industrial illusion?:
The hype vs. the harm behind insect-based dog foods.

I'm excited to share my conversation with Dr. Scott Sherr, where we dive deep into methylene blue - a compound you've probably seen all over social media lately (those blue tongues!). As someone whose primary research focuses on Alzheimer's disease, I was fascinated to explore the science behind this molecule that dates back to the 1870s and was actually the first drug registered with the FDA in 1897.  The most fascinating insight for me was learning how methylene blue can serve as an electron acceptor in our mitochondria - essentially functioning as a substitute for oxygen when our cells are under stress. This explains why it shows promise for everything from traumatic brain injury to cognitive enhancement and even as a potential alternative to stimulant medications.   If you're interested in optimizing brain performance, understanding mitochondrial health, or simply curious about this blue compound that's suddenly everywhere, this episode provides both the scientific foundation and practical applications you need. Subscribe to The Neuroscience Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

You can find it at balchem.com/realscience.Feeding rumen-protected choline in early lactation has consistently increased milk yield and energy-corrected milk yield, which is more pronounced when cows are fed diets low in metabolizable methionine. Choline feeding also increases milk fat and protein yield, minimizes body condition loss in early lactation, and reduces postpartum disease incidence. Dr. McFadden presents three topics about choline biology in the dairy cow. (01:45)Why should we consider fatty acid feeding when feeding methyl donors like choline and methionine?Choline degradation in the rumen and small intestine, focusing on the role of triethylamine oxide Why should we consider lysophosphatidylcholine as an immunomodulator in fresh cows and preweaning calves?Fatty acid nutrition to optimize methyl donor efficiency. (4:02)Fatty liver is a concern for fresh cows because of its relationship with ketosis, poor fertility and compromised milk production. Cows with fatty liver exhibit low circulating concentrations of phosphatidylcholine, which is a component of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) that transport triglycerides out of the liver. Feeding rumen-protected choline lowers liver triglyceride deposition by supporting the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine and thus, VLDL. Dr. McFadden goes on to explain the two different pathways for phosphatidylcholine in the liver and how those interact with fatty acid metabolism. He describes several experiments that have investigated how rumen-protected choline and supplemental fatty acids interact in lactating cows. Low phosphatidylcholine supply is a key feature of fatty liver in dairy cows, likely due to low polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and low choline supplies. Delivery of post-ruminal PUFA may support phosphatidylcholine synthesis with accompanying improvements in insulin sensitivity, body condition maintenance, and inflammation, but interactions with dietary fatty acid digestibility should be considered. Dr. McFadden gives a list of considerations for fresh cow diets incorporating fat and choline supplementation. Gastrointestinal choline degradation and trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO)  (16:58)Unprotected choline is almost totally degraded in the rumen. Microbes convert choline into trimethylamine (TMA) which is then converted to TMAO in the liver. Rumen-protected choline allows for a large proportion of choline to reach the small intestine intact. However, research shows that choline can also be degraded by microbes in the small intestine in the same pathway, limiting choline bioavailability. Plasma TMAO accumulation is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, inflammation, insulin resistance, obesity, oxidative stress, and cardiovascular disease in rodent and human models. Little research was available regarding if the relationship between TMAO and poor health was causative or just associative. Dr. McFadden's lab infused cows intravenously with TMAO and found that TMAO did not modify milk production or glucose tolerance in early lactation cows.  TMAO does not appear to influence energy metabolism or health in early lactation cows. Choline is subject to both ruminal and lower-gut degradation to TMA, and that influence on choline bioavailability needs to be defined. Data in non-ruminants suggests that unsaturated fatty acid feeding can shift the gut microbes to slow TMA formation. Lysophosphatidylcholine and immunomodulation (28:45)Dr. McFadden gives an overview of neutrophil activation and the oxidative burst that contributes to pathogen killing. The ability to elicit the oxidative burst is diminished in pre-weaned calves and transition cows. When cows were given endotoxin to cause an immune response, circulating lysophosphatidylcholine was decreased. In rodent models, lysophosphatidylcholine promotes the oxidative burst and suppresses long-term inflammation in response to bacterial infection. Dr. McFadden cultured neutrophils from pre-weaned calves with lysophosphatidylcholine and observed an enhanced oxidative burst.Immunosuppression is characterized by low circulating lysophosphatidylcholine concentrations in dairy cows. In  vitro data suggests lysophosphatidylcholine can activate neutrophils, and rumen-protected choline increases circulating lysophosphatidylcholine. Future research is likely to define an immunomodulatory role for choline. Dr. McFadden takes questions from the webinar audience.

Are you ready to take your health into your own hands in the new year? Are you ready to make nutrition and wellness a part of your everyday routine so that you can achieve your health goals and feel your best all year long without it taking over life? You've come to the right place!Welcome to Salad with a Side of Fries, the podcast where balance meets results and wellness seamlessly fits into real life. In this episode, Jenn kicks off the new year by answering listener questions, debunking common nutrition myths and offering her top tips for making health and wellness a part of your everyday routine. She discusses essential supplements, the pros and cons of health-tracking apps, and why eating fresh, whole foods is key to feeling your best. Jenn also shares her approach to tackling some of the most common challenges people face when starting their wellness journey, including maintaining consistency, avoiding misinformation, and figuring out how to stay on track when life gets busy. This episode is a great place to start 2025 off strong (and stay that way). The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE: [4:27] Common nutrition myths to debunk[6:31] Five things to consider to flush out fad diets or misinformation[8:57] What is the difference between weight loss and fat loss[10:40] Is late-night eating harmful to your metabolism[14:49] How to start the year off right with supplements and are electrolyte drinks worth it[19:37] Can health-tracking apps support or hinder health[25:55] How can you maintain a consistent routine of physical activity all year, not just in January[29:49] Suggestions for enjoying sweet treats[31:57] Top nutritional foods to add to your diet. Hint: Fresh is best![34:52] How many carbs can you have daily to lose weight[38:08] How much protein does one need, and from what sources[43:00] Jenn advises anyone working toward setting new goals: consistency is  king[46:56] Consider joining the Healthy Vibe Tribe; it's not too lateKEY TAKEAWAYS: Debunking Nutrition Myths for 2025: Some outdated guidelines, like the food pyramid/MyPlate and meal plans requiring fruit and grain at breakfast, are still in use but should be reconsidered. Additionally, elimination diets and medication-assisted weight loss are gaining media attention, but these are not permanent solutions. Focusing on health, not just weight or the number on the scale, is encouraged for 2025, recognizing that holistic well-being involves more than body metrics.How to Identify Reliable Nutrition Advice: To differentiate reliable nutrition advice from fad diets, consider the source and who benefits from the information. Look for scientifically sound studies, be aware of personal biases, use common sense, and avoid jumping to conclusions based on correlation versus causation. Additionally, avoid getting distracted by clickbait or trendy health advice and focus on understanding your body's needs.Consistency is Key: To maintain a daily exercise routine beyond January, it's essential to plan for your most challenging days, not the ideal ones. Choose realistic goals that are small and measurable, ensuring they can be completed every day, even on busy days. Focus on the process rather than just the outcome (e.g., moving your body for 10 minutes daily instead of solely focusing on weight loss).Mental and Physical Health Are Interconnected: Mental wellness and physical health are deeply connected, with the vagus nerve linking the gut and brain. Starting with physical activities and feeding your body nutritious foods, makes it easier to focus on mental health, creating a positive cycle where each aspect supports the other.QUOTES: [6:00] “I'd like to encourage everybody for 2025 to make the objective health, rather than the number on the scale. And realize that what we do for one area also impacts other areas of our health,  so we don't have to take on the world in January to improve our health.” Jenn Trepeck[16:27] “Quality matters when it comes to supplementation. Formulas that use better ingredients, the more bioavailable ingredients, that are formulated with nutrients that help the body use the proper ingredients are all at play here. So that piece of it is called bioactivity, the body's ability to use it. Bioavailability is the body's ability to absorb it. So we need both things present when we take supplements.” Jenn Trepeck[26:13] "Plan for your most challenging day, not your ideal day."Jenn Trepeck [35:34] " 'How many carbs should I be eating for whatever goal?' is sort of a mixed up question, because it's not the quantity, it's the quality. If what you're eating has tons of fiber, then you can have more  carbohydrates in a day than if the carbs you're eating are all coming from potato chips." Jenn Trepeck[42:31] "You are what you eat, but you are also what you ate, ate.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Learn more about Healthy Vibe Tribe on Jan 6 at 8pm ETReady to jump into the Healthy Vibe Tribe?

Dr. Arshad begins by reviewing the inclusion criteria in the meta-analysis he conducted. He wished only to look at studies where lysine was supplemented in a rumen-protected form. The meta-analysis did not include studies that infused lysine into the abomasum or intestine. In addition, only completely randomized design or randomized complete block design studies were included. Feed ingredients and chemical composition of diets for each experiment were run through NASEM to predict the metabolizable lysine content using the same model so all studies were on the same scale. (6:04)The bioavailability of the different rumen-protected lysine products used in the studies ranged from 22 to 90 percent. If the paper's authors reported bioavailability values, they were used in the meta-analysis. If the paper did not provide bioavailability values, Dr. Arshad contacted authors or lysine product manufacturers to offer them. (13:53)Dr. Arshad discusses the percentage of lysine as a percent of metabolizable protein in the diets as well as differences among the prediction of the flow of amino acids to the small intestine from NASEM, NRC, and CNCPS models. (16:45) Around 40% of the meta-analysis dataset was from early lactation cows where rumen-protected lysine was supplemented starting from 20 days in milk. The rest of the dataset came from mid-lactation cows. The duration of lysine supplementation also varied. Cows supplemented with rumen-protected lysine for more than 70 days In early lactation produced 1.5 kilograms more milk than control cows. Mid-lactation cows supplemented for less than 70 days produced 0.8 kilograms more milk than control cows. Increasing lysine as a percentage of metabolizable protein linearly increased milk and component yield. (20:11)During the transition period, cows not only experience negative energy balance but also negative protein balance, estimated at one kilogram of protein loss from skeletal muscle during that time. Plasma lysine starts to decrease around 21 days before calving but bounces back after seven days in milk. This suggests that lysine utilization by the mammary gland and other tissues is high during the prepartum period. Supplementing lysine before calving and during early lactation should improve the efficiency of protein synthesis and may explain the difference between early and mid-lactation responses observed in the meta-analysis. (24:10)Lysine supplementation improved feed efficiency. Dr. Arshad discusses potential reasons for this and also points out that somatic cell counts were lower for lysine-supplemented cows, suggesting that this amino acid may be important for mammary gland health. He also discusses some of the interactions with methionine found in the meta-analysis. Dr. Zimmerman and Dr. Arshad also hypothesize about the mechanism of action of supplemental lysine increasing milk fat percentage. (30:44)Dr. Arshad describes how he would design the next rumen-protected lysine study given what he learned from the different studies in the meta-analysis. In particular, he would like to see more work with primiparous cows, and dose-titration studies to pinpoint the optimal amount of lysine to supplement and to further explore the impact of lysine on immune function. (42:42)The base diet and bioavailability of the rumen-protected lysine product are critical components to determine the supplementation rate for a particular group of cows. Dr. Arshad details the differences between this meta-analysis and previous meta-analyses regarding lysine supplementation. (46:40) In closing, Dr. Zimmerman was excited to see this meta-analysis and it validated observations from the field. Dr. Weiss underlines the strict inclusion criteria and regression analysis as particularly strong points in the paper. Finally, Dr. Arshad reminds the audience that creating a balanced ration should include essential and non-essential amino acids. He again emphasizes the importance of having an understanding of the bioavailability of rumen-protected products before conducting research projects with them. Lastly, he identifies a research gap regarding lysine supplementation of primiparous cows, which make up 30-35% of herd dynamics.

Dr. Zimmerman presented a Real Science Lecture webinar on December 12th, 2023, titled “Not All Rumen-Protected Products Are Created Equal.” You can find the webinar recording at balchem.com/realscience.  Clay outlines four attributes of a good rumen-encapsulated product. They are feed and TMR stable, ruminal stable, nutrient bioavailability, and good efficacy biologically in the animal.  (6:21)Kari describes a TMR stability test that Balchem has been perfecting based on a paper published in 2016. One to two grams of a rumen-protected product (based on the nutrient composition) is mixed with a half pound of TMR in a Ziploc bag, then the mixture incubates for 0, 6, 12 or 24 hours (based on feeding 1x, 2x, or 3x per day). Once a sample is finished incubating, it's placed in a strainer bag in one liter of distilled water for one minute. Then, the amount of nutrient that was leached into the distilled water is measured. She describes some of the observations and trends they've seen from using this technique on different products. (8:24)Mark asks about the impact of abrasion during the mixing process on encap stability. Kari describes a mineral mix technique using a small ribbon and paddle mixer. In this case, 5-10 pounds of encap product are mixed with 90-95 pounds of a mineral mix for three minutes. Then a sample is analyzed for damage to the encap. Clay does not recommend pelleting any encapsulated product because that will only reduce efficacy. It may not be 100% damage, but it will be significant. (12:41)Scott asks about the freeze-thaw stability of encapsulates. Clay mentions that all of Balchem's encapsulated products are freeze-thaw stable. If a product is not, there will be cracks in the coating and some ruminal stability will be lost. (19:34)When it comes to ruminal stability, matrix encapsulates tend to have lower stability in the rumen, but it varies widely. Some have no ruminal stability; some lose less than 10% in the rumen. Encapsulation is a complex process and there are tradeoffs between some of the steps. For example, between TMR stability or rumen stability and bioavailability, the goal is to find the perfect mix of these to make a high-efficacy product on the farm. Kari describes a rumen stability test that can be conducted on-farm for protected choline and lysine products. Mark describes in situ experiments for rumen stability testing using small Dacron bags in rumen-cannulated animals. He mentions that creating an encap with high rumen stability and high intestinal digestibility is key.  (19:58)Bioavailability is key, but methodologies for assessing bioavailability are a limitation. Kari and Mark discuss the pros and cons of various in situ/in vivo techniques, including mobile bag, abomasal pulse dose, and stable isotope. (29:25)Clay mentions that in vitro techniques are a key piece to product development and testing, but may give erroneous results compared to in vivo testing. Kari describes an experiment she conducted with Mark comparing in vivo and in vitro techniques. She suggests that there may be an argument for creating specific in vitro tests built for different types of protected products.  For example, for a pH-sensitive product, a step mimicking abomasal enzymes would be important. For a fat-coated product, a step mimicking intestinal enzymes for fat breakdown would be important. Clay cautions that a product with only in vitro data should be regarded with skepticism. (44:25)Biological response in the animal is the key final step. Ultimately, you want independent, peer-reviewed data to prove the efficacy of a product. Mark reminds the audience that even if animals don't respond to a product, there are a host of different issues that could be causing that unrelated to the product being tested. Things like water quality, water quantity, stress, cow comfort - there's a whole laundry list of things to consider. (50:39)In closing, Kari recommends that when picking an encap product, ask for the research that hits the four pillars: TMR stability, rumen stability, bioavailability, and animal performance. Mark suggests that you can't make a bad encap good, but you can make a good encap bad if you aren't careful. Clay agrees that the more data, the better. Lastly, we need more work on the feed stability pillar which has been overlooked. It is a critical piece to encap products being effective in the field.
