Podcasts about hyperinsulinemia

In this episode, Dr Odell discusses the critical yet often overlooked issue of insulin resistance—a hidden epidemic affecting nearly 40% of American adults. This sneaky condition, where the body's cells don't respond to insulin, is more than just a number on a chart; it's a major catalyst for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and a host of other metabolic disorders. Join us as he uncovers why insulin resistance is a growing concern for so many people and explore how its widespread impact could be affecting you or someone you love. Dr. Odell will also discuss two competing theories regarding the causes of insulin resistance: the traditional view that cells become less responsive to insulin, and a groundbreaking study from 2024 suggesting that insulin may break down too quickly in the body. Learn about the critical role insulin plays in regulating energy and blood sugar levels, and discover the implications of insulin resistance on overall health. Throughout the episode, he'll discuss practical strategies to reverse insulin resistance through dietary changes, exercise, and weight management. Find out which foods can help improve insulin sensitivity, why exercise is vital for metabolic health, and how lifestyle modifications can significantly reduce insulin resistance and its associated risks.

Episode #167 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: If the stomach rumbles about an hour after having a black coffee, does this mean that the coffee raised insulin? [01:43] Is insulin released only when the food is in the mouth? It feels like when a big, heavy meal is in the stomach for hours I could still add a supplement or snack to it and it wouldn't make a difference, but would there be an additional insulin release? [02:54] I have read that it is recommended to ‘anchor' your weight after a 10% reduction in BF%. Can you say a bit more about this? I presume you would ‘anchor' by scaling back on fasting, and adjusting frequency and intensity in response to any changes in BF% so as to keep it stable. But what happens if you go all the way in one go? Do you need to ‘anchor' for longer at the lower BF% in order for it to become your new set weight or does the research say it's not possible to reset it that low if you didn't pause along the way? [03:35] Is it true that a longer fast (or intense exercise) can stress your body, causing insulin to go up, and, therefore, might even be counterproductive? [14:08] One of the biggest effects of blood glucose and insulin spikes is the damage to small blood vessels. These spikes damage the organs that predominantly rely on small vasculature like kidneys, eyes, nerves in fingers and toes, leading to complications like diabetic kidney failure, macular degeneration, and neuropathy. Hyperinsulinemia is really a microvascular disease. Could you please share how you explain this process to non-medical folks?  I fail to explain to my family members in layperson terms exactly what it is about the spikes of BG and insulin that damages the small blood vessels. [16:24] In The Obesity Code, you wrote about a study where they overfed people to get them to gain weight. The study showed that they had a hard time putting weight on because their bodies knew to burn it off. So my question is, if our bodies experience this effect as per the study, what signs would there be (such as raised temperature and/or heart rate) to get our body to burn the extra calories consumed?

How come weight gain remains a common struggle for individuals with type 2 diabetes, despite maintaining a restricted diet? Harriet Verkoelen sheds light on the misconceptions surrounding insulin and type 2 diabetes, underscoring the importance of insulin resistance testing, and discussing hyperinsulinemia which could be a far more severe risk factor than high glucose levels.The mainstream understanding and treatment of type 2 diabetes could be flawed, but there's not enough attention given to it in medical education. With the potential damage caused by high insulin levels, including coronary heart disease and other chronic diseases, why are we foregoing insulin testing? Harriet's insights on the early signs of insulin resistance, different treatments for type-2 diabetes patients, and the need to cut down on carbs just prove to us there's no question about her dedication to promoting a greater understanding of our body's metabolic health.Get to know our guestHarriet Verkoelen, with her background in nursing and nutrition, has specialized as a diabetes nurse. She advocates a low-carb lifestyle as a solution to reversing type-2 diabetes.“We need to work together and show doctors what the results are so we can work all together. And dietitians need to understand that they also have to change something in their advising. Because as I told you, the test always tells you that you need to eat less carbohydrates. ”Connect with herInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/harrietverkoelen/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/harrietverkoelen.dietist/Website: https://www.harrietverkoelen.nl /  https://www.meetins.nlLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harriët-verkoelen-1023bb13/Amazon: Books by Harriet Verkoelen About the Kraft Test:· Interview of Dr Joseph Kraft· Catherine Crofts PhD on Hyperinsulinemia and K Chances are, you wouldn't be listening to this podcast if you didn't need to change your life and get healthier.

[04:43] Understanding the Impact of Excessive Insulin on Cellular Health and Insulin Resistance ·    Excessive insulin spikes, particularly above 15%, can disrupt cellular processes. ·    Elevated insulin triggers the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) pathway, causing cells to consume more. ·    Common treatments for insulin issues, like medications, may not address the root causes. ·    Fasting and accessing adipocytes (fat cells) can help sensitize insulin and manage glucose levels.  [11:10] Which type of water hydrates the body the best? ·    The type of drink you choose affects the level of hydration it provides. ·    Alkaline water with micro-clustering contains fewer hydrogen molecules that need separation. ·    Some bottled waters may contain BPA and phthalates from plastic, which can disrupt hormones. ·   Ionized water with pre-filters can be an excellent choice for optimal hydration and hormone balance.  [26:05] The Fructose Test: Unveiling the Complexities of Sugar and Insulin ·    Fructose doesn't require insulin to enter cells. ·    Pure crystalline fructose may behave differently from fructose in natural sources. ·    Fiber intake can help mitigate glucose spikes when consuming fructose-rich fruits. ·   Dr. Grego stresses the importance of using herbs and glandulars for holistic health, as they provide a variety of nutrients that work synergistically with the body's natural processes.  [38:59] Understanding the Science of Nutrition: Exploring Diet, Evolution, and the Role of Fats ·    Primate teeth structure and digestive systems are examined to argue that humans are naturally frugivores. ·    All foods eventually break down into carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. ·    Seed oils and processed fats contribute to the formation of white visceral fat. ·   The historical shift from saturated fats to hydrogenated oils and trans fats is a dietary change that wasn't beneficial.  [54:16] Restoring Pancreatic Function in Type 1 and Type 1.5 Diabetes Through Cellular Regeneration ·    The kidneys and liver are examples of organs capable of regeneration, even when a significant portion is lost. ·    Fruits are a powerful energy source, with a significantly higher oxidation-reduction potential than vegetables, meat, and dairy. ·    The body can regenerate new cells, but the outcome depends on whether a worn-out "brick" is replaced with another worn-out one or a healthy, functioning cell.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Alexandra Sowa. As the daughter of a hand surgeon, Dr. Alexandra Sowa was exposed to medicine at a young age. She loved how her father could transform people's lives by giving them back the use of their hands. Check out SoWell: https://lddy.no/13m4s Use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off your entire order. In her internal medicine residency, she saw that same sort of transformation for patients who lost weight and drastically improved their health. Once she knew weight loss medicine was a specialization she could pursue, she never considered anything else. Now Dr. Sowa is a board-certified physician of Internal Medicine, specializing in preventive health, nutrition and obesity medicine. Through her New York City practice, she has helped thousands of patients lose weight and live healthier lives. Dr. Sowa also holds an appointment as a Clinical Instructor in Medicine at the New York University School of Medicine. Outside of her practice, she enjoys communicating health messages to the public through print and television. She has published original articles on health-related topics in publications like The Atlantic, NPR, Slate Magazine and the New York Daily News. She has also served as an on-air health expert for national media outlets like Fox News, CBS News, NPR, and The Doctors. Her medical opinions have been featured in print publications, from the New York Times to U.S. News and World Report to Glamour and Parents Magazine. She is a regular weight-loss expert on SiriusXM radio. She is passionate about optimizing health through food. You can often find her making healthy meals (and a mess!) for her husband and two young sons in the kitchen. In this episode, Dr. Sowa talks about how she got involved in the health space and her passion for preventing metabolic dysfunction. Unfortunately, 88% of Americans are metabolically inflexible; however, Dr. Sowa says there are easy ways to reverse that. Plus, Dr. Sowa talks about the importance of data and your optimal markers. Tune in as we chat about supplements, intermittent fasting, and the importance of quality sleep.

Plus, the idea of prevention always was very attractive to her. Sowa always wondered why doctors want to treat the disease if they could prevent it. At college, she really started to understand a holistic view of what it means to be healthy. Eventually, Dr. Sowa realized a lot of problems in health boils down to metabolic dysfunction. [04:40] Why Are 88% of Americans Metabolically Inflexible? So, Dr. Sowa says the solution is actually pretty straightforward. You can reverse type 2 diabetes; again, it is reversible! Many people think a low-carb and high-fat diet will give you a heart attack or a stroke; that's simply not true. The three macronutrients are carbohydrates, protein, and fat. Out of those three macronutrients, carbohydrates will spike glucose and insulin the most. It makes total sense that we should eat more protein and fat to reverse high insulin. [16:45] What Is An Optimal Range For Fasting Insulin? Optimal is usually under five. Even up to eight is okay for fasting insulin. Anything higher than eight means your body is making too much insulin in response to carbohydrates. When Dr. Sowa does bloodwork, she's looking for metabolic syndrome. Plus, Dr. Sowa wants to look for vitamin deficiencies. Learn more about the kits that Dr. Sowa offers here: https://lddy.no/13m4s Use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off your entire order. [20:50] How Often Should Someone Retest Their Markers? You should test once a quarter. If you are embarking on a new lifestyle change, Dr. Sowa says to test right away. That way, you have the data. Once you start eating keto, then you can see what improves. Your markers are a better victory than what you see on the scale. [24:20] How Dr. Sowa Wants To Help People With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome PCOS is a disease of insulin resistance in the majority of cases. For years, the medical community has gone about treating this in the wrong way. Up to 50% of women with PCOS will go on to develop type two diabetes by the time they're 40. Women with PCOS can make themselves feel better by following a low carbohydrate diet. Sowa developed a kit to help women get a diagnosis. It usually takes women five years and three doctors to understand their diagnosis. [28:10] Why Dr. Sowa Is A Big Fan of Intermittent Fasting   Fasting will reset your hormones. Plus, fasting is a great way to understand your relationship with food and hunger. Remember, you don't have to eat every two hours. In the beginning, it's not necessarily about eating less; it's just about eating less often.   [31:10] Why Dr. Sowa Loves Walking After A Meal Walk after a meal, so your muscles have the ability to take up any glucose. We should be moving right after we eat to take up any free glucose and use it for energy instead of fat storage. Five minutes will make a difference! The sweet spot would be fifteen to twenty minutes. [34:10] How Important Is Quality Sleep Each Night? If you don't get good sleep, sleep, you will be hungry and crave carbohydrates. Good quality and consistent sleep will keep your cortisol levels down. When cortisol spikes from poor sleep, the hunger hormone will also spike. Plus, you will get a spike in insulin. When insulin is high, it will drive hunger. One of the silent epidemics in our country is sleep apnea, where people cannot get good sleep no matter how hard they try. Luckily, Dr. Sowa will screen for sleep apnea. [40:30] The Supplements That Dr. Sowa Recommends Sowa is a fan of her GetSoBalanced supplement. This formula is great for a number of things: Weight management Healthy metabolism Blood sugar regulation Insulin sensitivity Healthy cholesterol levels PCOS symptom relief Gastrointestinal microbial balance Check out GetSoBalanced here: https://lddy.no/13m4s Use ketokamp at checkout for 10% off your entire order.  Also, Dr. Sow loves myo-inositol; it is a natural alternative to Metformin. It's great for both men and women. [46:05] What To Do Before You Take A SoWell Test First, chug water! Next, warm up your hands. Run them under warm water and get the circulation going. Sometimes, you have to massage the finger to get blood to come out. Once you prick your finger, trust the process. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Shana Hussin. She grew up in Wisconsin, and earned her dietetics degree from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in 1999. While very active throughout her entire lifetime, she struggled with weight gain in college, despite following conventional nutrition recommendations and exercising extensively. It took many years to figure out why she was so much bigger then, but the truth revealed itself when Shana discovered hormonal connections between weight gain, and eventually growing sick and fat. Shana has worked in the medical nutrition therapy field for 20 years. Like most dietitians, she recommended strategies to her clients for much of her career that failed them long-term, with little sustainable weight loss. This proved to be frustrating to both practitioner and client. Armed with new knowledge, an open mind, and simple healing concepts, she developed a 5- Step lifestyle improvement program for her clients, resulting in immediate and sustained success. Determined to share correct and effective concepts with as many as she could reach, she started writing. Shana now serves those wanting to learn her teachings with books, digital products, personalized virtual visits, group coaching, Facebook support groups, the Fast To Heal Stories podcast, and her popular 28-Day Finding Nutritional PEACE Group Challenges, which run every season. To learn more about or to sign up for any of her programs, visit fasttoheal.info. Shana and her husband have 3 awesome children and live in Kaukauna, WI. When she is able, she loves reading, running, traveling, sitting in the sunshine, walking with friends, and cheering her children on in whatever they are pursuing. In this episode, Shana opens the show by talking about her son's ulcerative colitis diagnosis. After months of symptoms, the doctors told Shana to prepare to remove her son's colon. Luckily, Shana sought help outside of the conventional medical system and healed her son without removing his organs. Then, Shana speaks about when she questioned her traditional training as a dietician. After getting sick, Shana started to heal herself by dialing back carbs, increasing healthy fats, and eating more protein. Tune in as we chat all about her new book, Fast To Heal: A 5-Step Guide to Achieving Nutritional PEACE and Reversing Insulin Resistance.

After weeks, he still had diarrhea. So, they went and got testing, but nothing was coming back. Three months after he started having symptoms, he had a colonoscopy done, and he was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. He had lost a bunch of weight and couldn't keep up with sports at the age of eleven. Later, the doctor said Shana needed to get ready to take his colon out. However, Shana found experts outside of the conventional medicine that helped heal her son. [13:30] Why Shana Started To Question Her Dietician Training Shana was a dietician for ten years before she started questioning things. She told people to eat low fat, mostly plants and whole grains. Ten years in, Shana's clients weren't getting any better. After having three children, Shana started to develop her own health problems. Shana had four or five canker sores in her mouth, bloating, and a lack of energy. She knew something in her diet had to be the problem. It took a long time to figure out what was wrong. Shana started fasting, dialing back carbs, and increasing fats. After a few months, Shana was sleeping better, her bloating went away, and her canker sores vanished. [23:25] The Lessons That Shana Talks About In Her Book, Fast To Heal Get Fast To Heal: A 5-Step Guide to Achieving Nutritional PEACE and Reversing Insulin Resistance: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0874JXVP7/benazadi-20 P stands for Prepare. Prepare your body for fasting. Get the junk out of your system as much as possible. Eat more whole foods and get your carbohydrates down so your body can adapt to ketones. E stands for Extend Your Fast. Stop eating after dinner. Figure out your trigger and remove it. Start pushing your first meal back in the morning. If you like eating in the morning, close your window sooner at night. A stands for Alter Nutrition As Needed. Women always need to increase their protein. When you're not eating protein and natural fats, then you're going to be ill and hungry. Also, it's time to ditch the seed oils. C stands for Clean, Challenge, and Change Make sure that your fast is clean and you're not stimulating insulin. Challenge days work well for people who have been sick for a long time; pick one day where you will do a twenty-four-hour fast. If you have severe insulin resistance, extended fasts can help you heal. E stands for Ease Your Mind. If you don't sleep and have stress, then your hormones will be out of whack. Stress leads to binge eating and not feeling well. It's a vicious cycle, so you need to get your sleep and stress dialed in. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Sam Apple. He is on the faculty of the MA in Science Writing and MA in Writing programs at Johns Hopkins. Register your FREE spot for the next 7 day keto kickstart challenge with Dr Jason Fung, Dr Ken Berry, Dr Annette Boz and many others: http://www.ketokampchallenge.com This episode originally aired in December 2021 Prior to his arrival at Johns Hopkins, Apple taught creative writing and journalism at the University of Pennsylvania for ten years. He holds a BA in English and Creative Writing from the University of Michigan and an MFA in Creative Nonfiction from Columbia University. Apple is the author of Ravenous American Parent, and Schlepping Through the Alps. He has published short stories, personal essays, satires, and journalistic features on a wide range of topics. In recent years, he has primarily written about science and health. His work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Wired, The Los Angeles Times, The Financial Times Magazine, ESPN The Magazine, The MIT Technology Review, and McSweeney's, among many other publications. Schlepping Through the Alps was a finalist for the PEN America Award for a first work of nonfiction. In this episode, Sam talks about the inspiration behind his book Ravenous: Otto Warburg, the Nazis, and the Search for the Cancer-Diet. We dive into Otto Warburg's work and how the Nazis protected him for his cancer science. Sam explains how sugar can promote cancer growth and what steps you can take to lower your insulin levels. Tune in as we chat about fasting, therapies for cancer, and the importance of exercise.

Plus, Gary Taubes inspired him. Sam was really surprised to learn that that cancer was associated with diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. He wanted to dig further on the connection between cancer and metabolic disease.  [02:10] The Nazis Protected Warburg For His Cancer Research In 1923, Warburg makes this famous discovery called the Warburg Effect. Cancer cells take up a lot more glucose than other cells and burn it without oxygen; they ferment it, just like microorganisms do. Warburg also has made other discoveries about how cells breathe and use oxygen. He wins the Nobel Prize in 1931. In 1933, the Nazis come along. Despite having a Jewish father and being openly gay, the Nazis protected Warburg because they were interested in his cancer research. [06:50] Warburg's Studies Started To Disappear After The War After the war, Warburg's cancer research really starts to disappear. Australia in the 1950s famously discovered the structure of DNA. Eventually, we had a new sort of genetic understanding of cancer where we can now identify specific mutations. So, how cells take up glucose and shift their metabolism was considered irrelevant because of the study of genetics. Warburg's studies take peoeple back to diet, and there's a huge bias against taking diet seriously. [12:20] What Sugar Does To Promote Cancer Growth If cancer is about these metabolic shifts inside of a cell, what is it about the way we eat that affects the way a cell eats? In America, one out of three women are diagnosed with cancer within their lifetime. For men, it's about one in two. Cancer is closely linked to obesity. 13 of the deadliest cancers have been solidly linked to obesity. Sam wanted to know if obesity was causing cancer or if something was driving both. Elevated levels of the hormone insulin are responsible for obesity and give microscopic cancers a chance to grow and thrive. What is it about our diet that causes insulin to rise? Sugar! The increase in sugar consumption maps pretty closely to the rise of diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. [19:30] How A Keto Diet That Will Help You Prevent Cancer Sam is a huge believer that keto is a logical way to prevent cancer. The single most important thing you can do to improve your odds for cancer prevention is to keep your insulin levels low. Hyperinsulinemia promotes the growth of cancer. So, it's important to follow a diet that keeps your insulin levels down. [22:20] Intermittent Fasting Is Another Great Way To Lower Insulin Intermittent fasting is one very successful strategy for keeping insulin down. If you can fast consistently, it seems to work quite effectively on lowering insulin. Fasting can lead to weight loss because it lowers insulin levels in the body. Sam wants to point out that thin people can still have insulin resistance. In some ways, being naturally thin can actually be a disadvantage because you can't store subcutaneous fat. [26:30] How To Optimize Insulin and Glucose Levels To Be Proactive Instead of Reactive You can't outrun a bad diet. However, exercise can help you feel better and make you more inspired to follow a low-carb diet. After workouts, you can be inspired to eat healthily and continue to feel good. Once you understand that sugar is linked to cancer, it should help you ditch it during mealtime. [38:30] Finding Therapies To Target Specific Cancer Mutations When cancer can eat lots of glucose, it's no longer thinking about dying; it's thinking about doing a lot more things. Based on which particular mutation you have, the oncologist will devise a treatment. Unfortunately, targeted therapies to specific mutations haven't been as successful as we would have liked.

Do you have any of the following symptoms ; find it hard to lose weight, gain belly fat, mood swings, darkened skin, tiredness, feeling hungry all the time, headache, migraine or brain fog? Then you may have Hyperinsulinemia. Dr Irene is here in this episode to explain exactly what this disorder is, what causes it and some of the changes you can make to greatly reduce its severity.      KEY TAKEAWAYS Hyper means too much, insulin is the hormone that regulates the amount of glucose in the blood, and ‘emia' means ‘in the blood.' Basically, it means your body is secreting too much insulin.  When the body is trying to reduce the amount of glucose from the food you eat, it releases insulin to help bring the level of glucose down to a safe level. If this happens too often, your body develops an immunity to the insulin and has to produce more for the same effect.  Carbohydrates become glucose when it is digested. The slower the carbohydrate releases the sugar the better it is. This is called the glycemic index.   An insulin surge can cause a sudden drop in sugar levels resulting in lethargy. Lethargy leads you to intake more sugar causing another surge and so on…with enough occurrences you will develop diabetes and a fatty liver. Cut out highly refined, processed carbohydrates and plump for complex carbohydrates with a high glycemic index. BEST MOMENTS ‘A lot of people out there do not know, you are what you eat. A lot of the problems you've got could be due to your diet and your lifestyle.' ‘Too much insulin comes out to bring down the sugar because the body treats it as an emergency.'  ‘The best thing is just do little by little, small changes that you can sustain.'  VALUABLE RESOURCES Join Patreon : http://www.patreon.com/drireneching Instagram: irene.ching.777 Tiktok: @ireneching777 Youtube channel: Dr Irene Ching Twitter: @ireneching7777 Clubhouse: @ireneching1 https://www.facebook.com/irene.ching.735 LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/irene-ching-742623219 ABOUT THE HOST Dr Irene Ching is a medical practitioner who specialises in Family Medicine, Wealth and Life Coach, Property/ Business Investor, Speaker, Quantum Wealth Creation Accelerator and Podcaster : Be Happy, Healthy and Wealthy.

Today I am grateful to have Kara Collier, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist (LDN), and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC) with me for an informative podcast session.  Collier specialises in glucose control and metabolism and has graduated from Purdue University. She is an incredibly talented health professional who has joined us on some of our first few podcasts. Currently, she is conducting research alongside some partners to investigate why so many Americans today are living unhealthy lives, suffering from poor metabolic health and the role lifestyle choices play in aggravating health problems.  Approximately 90% of Americans today are not metabolically healthy based on the results of standardized metabolic testing systems such as the assessment of glucose levels and fasting blood sugar values. So, in this episode today we will be exploring the ‘why' element behind these troubling statistics. Dr. Kara Collier will also be sharing some important and impactful practices that can be adopted in our everyday lives that can lay down the foundation for good metabolic functioning and a healthy life.  Tune in as we touch up on some topics that require urgent addressing and get better insights into how your body works and the role you can play in improving its functioning.  Get your Nutrisense Continuous Glucose Monitor Here www.nutrisense.io/ketokamp use the code BEN30 for $30 off 4 Secrets to Mastering Keto Masterclass.

But this factor does not contribute to the problem on its own. We also have an issue of decreased insulin sensitivity. A problem in which cells do not respond well to insulin signalling. Hyperinsulinemia and less sensitive cells both interact and contribute to insulin resistance.  The old tale of the boy who cried wolf explains a lot about hyperinsulinemia because hyperinsulinemia is just like crying out loud more than you need to, to such an extent that people just start ignoring the message! Likewise, the constant overstimulation of insulin makes the cells less sensitive to insulin. These two changes are the key drivers behind this insulin resistance problem and can result in extreme forms of metabolic dysfunction such as diabetes. The human body is extremely complex which means that it is difficult to establish cause-and-effect relationships where one factor is directly responsible for bringing about a given set of changes. Likewise, with problems related to metabolic health, there are often multiple factors working collectively to bring about a certain change.  Diseases stemming from metabolic issues are also an output of a build-up of decade-long problems for eg a patient only receives a diagnosis for type 2 diabetes, it is estimated that 60 to 70% of our beta cells which produce insulin are damaged beyond repair! Poorly regulated insulin levels could be a consequence of a poorly balanced diet featuring high carbohydrate intake, more than required sugar, and in general low nutrient density and high energy consumption. Eating around the clock and constantly keeping insulin-stimulated can be problematic as well. Similarly, chronic stress and poor sleep quality can disrupt the sensitivity of the cells to insulin as well. [9:57] Advice for people who have received some early signals of insulin-related issues Unhealthy habits and life practices can result in a metabolic breakdown, therefore it is important to come up with a healthier lifestyle. Reduce your Carbohydrates to limit insulin load. You can have about 45 to 60 grams of carbohydrates for each meal. Focus on having nutrient-rich diets!. Exercise is great, especially weight lifting! [14:25] Insulin response: Protein VS Carbohydrate Protein can trigger an insulin response in some individuals but it is not the same as the one triggered by carbohydrates. With carbohydrates it can become extremely challenging to normalise glucose levels  [27:19} Is glucose never exceeding 90 a blessing or a problem in disguise? Keeping in mind the principles of metabolic flexibility, staying strictly below 90 can get problematic. It's not the end goal, having a balanced energy-efficient system is! [37:20] What is CGM? CGM stands for Continuous Glucose monitor. It is a small device that you put on your arm and leave it there for two full weeks to get a picture of your Glucose levels.  CGM can help you keep a check on and understand your body better Get your Nutrisense Continuous Glucose Monitor Here www.nutrisense.io/ketokamp use the code BEN30 for $30 off Resources from this episode:  Get your Nutrisense Continuous Glucose Monitor Here www.nutrisense.io/ketokamp use the code BEN30 for $30 off Follow Kara Collier  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kara-collier-rdn-cnsc-52801a99/ Twitter: https://mobile.twitter.com/kara_collier1 Nutrisense Instagram: www.instagram.com/nutrisenseio  Join the Keto Kamp Academy http://www.ketokampacademy.com   Watch Keto Kamp on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUh_MOM621MvpW_HLtfkLyQ 4 Secrets to Mastering Keto Masterclass.

ORN Zoë Harcombe show notes 9/6/22 Epert in nutritional research In a study in the 70s, she found no evidence dietary fat is harmful. Found more health incidents and mortality when PUFAs were substituted for saturated fats. Found that dietary interventions had no positive influence and quite likely evidence of harm. They are not evidence-based. With protein norm at 15%. a maximum of 30% dietary fat means carbohydrates will be 55%. Harder now to uncover author and sponsorship conflict of interests. Relentless campaigns now against meat and dairy. But no evidence there. Do they want us sick? Eat Real Food. Potato is a real food but not a high nutrient food. Will the starch mess you up? Not if you're metabolically healthy. Could cause oxalate issues. Real food doesn't put fat and carbohydrate together in one package, except for nuts. But people find the combo irresistible, and food manufacturers take advantage. If you're feeling well, don't go near a doctor and don't test. Don't have overwhelming evidence that processed foods are bad. Difference between sugar in fruit and packaged sugar? None. Body doesn't know where the glucose/fructose/sucrose molecule came from. Five A Day Fruits and Vegetables is a complete fairy tale. What does sugar do in the body? We have 4 grams of glucose in our bloodstream at all times. After consuming sugar, insulin gets released to get glucose out of the blood, fructose goes to the liver. Too much fructose causes NAFLD, too much glucose causes diabetes. Hyperinsulinemia – high insulin state as a response to habitually too much sugar. Too much sugar smashes body's delicate mechanism for glucose control. Need a new paradigm on cholesterol. Statins are not the answer. Dairy – Zoë personally eats a lot of it. We don't need fiber. Carbohydrates are not an essential need. Fiber is a subset of carbohydrates and therefore not needed. Can it be a benefit? No trial evidence that says it's any good. Population studies show people who eat fiber tend to be healthier, but they don't prove it's the fiber that is causing the health benefit. Cereal companies want you to think fiber is needed. Eggs are really good. The yolk has the nutrients. Main sugar in rice is glucose. Average serving has 100 grams carbohydrate. Overeating high carb sources can cause blood glucose to drop below 4 gm because of insulin response, causing hypoglycemia. Want blood glucose to be even. With a habitual keto or carnivore diet, the body runs on fats. Fat is the fuel we don't run out of. If eating high meat, do you need extra fat? No, eat the food as it comes. Eat the fat on the meat, don't add more. Don't add butter to the steak if trying to lose weight. Burn the body's fat, not dietary fat. Mixing fat and carbs is the best way to add weight. Studies showing association between red meat and heart disease are population studies showing association between heart disease and affluence. Why don't dairy and meat industries defend themselves? Is honey a good food? It's just sugar with water. Good for wounds. Berries are the best fruit. ZoeHarcombe.com. Sign up and get a weekly email.

Do you have a thyroid problem but were told you were in the "normal range?" Tune in to hear the experts explain why the thyroid can be overlooked. Thyroid is tested in every one of our patient's blood work that comes in for wellness visits including hormones. "Normal" is relative because patients may have normal levels but have symptoms. This is why we go for "OPTIMAL" and symptom resolution! Active hormones need to be checked including T4, but T3 (the most active hormone) is overlooked a lot but is the most important. Dr. Durst and Farideh list several symptoms of thyroid issues while the list goes on! The most common medications that people are put on are synthetic and for T4. T3 and T4 medications are Dr. Durst and Farideh's favorite. Sometimes the ratio of the two can be tweaked to optimize the thyroid level which is why RMD uses a compounding pharmacy. Compounding pharmacies are so important for this reason. Every patient is different and has different levels. Nutrition can cause thyroid problems. Soy can decrease thyroid function. Low Zinc, iodine, fluoride poisoning, etc can also cause thyroid issues. Estrogen dominance in women can also cause issues. Stress is another thing that can play a big part in your thyroid function. Hyperthyroidism can be diagnosed by coming into the office and having hormones drawn along with T3. A lot of times it can be treated with lifestyle changes and sometimes medication. T3 can have a direct effect on muscle building and heart health. Clinical Findings:Depression, Weight gain, Constipation, Headaches/migraine headaches, Brittle, ridged, striated, thickened nails, Rough, dry skin, Menstrual irregularities, Fluid retention, Slow speech, Nails that are easily broken, Anxiety/panic attacks, Decreased memory, Inability to concentrate, Muscle and joint pain, reduced heart rate, Slow movements, Morning stiffness, Puffy face, Swollen eyelids, Decreased sexual interest, Cold intolerance, Cold hands and feet, Swollen legs, feet, hands, abdomen, Insomnia, Fatigue, Low body temperature, Horse, husky voice, Low blood pressure, Muscle weakness, Agitation/Irritability Hypercholesterolemia, Infertility, PMS, Hyperinsulinemia, Some studies supporting T4/T3 Bunevicius, R., et al., “Effect of thyroxine as compared with thyroxine plus triiodothyronine in patients with hypothyroidism,” NEJM 1994; 340(6):424-29.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Sam Apple. He is on the faculty of the MA in Science Writing and MA in Writing programs at Johns Hopkins. Prior to his arrival at Johns Hopkins, Apple taught creative writing and journalism at the University of Pennsylvania for ten years. He holds a BA in English and Creative Writing from the University of Michigan and an MFA in Creative Nonfiction from Columbia University. Apple is the author of Ravenous American Parent, and Schlepping Through the Alps. He has published short stories, personal essays, satires, and journalistic features on a wide range of topics. In recent years, he has primarily written about science and health. His work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Wired, The Los Angeles Times, The Financial Times Magazine, ESPN The Magazine, The MIT Technology Review, and McSweeney's, among many other publications. Schlepping Through the Alps was a finalist for the PEN America Award for a first work of nonfiction. In this episode, Sam talks about the inspiration behind his book Ravenous: Otto Warburg, the Nazis, and the Search for the Cancer-Diet. We dive into Otto Warburg's work and how the Nazis protected him for his cancer science. Sam explains how sugar can promote cancer growth and what steps you can take to lower your insulin levels. Tune in as we chat about fasting, therapies for cancer, and the importance of exercise.

Plus, Gary Taubes inspired him. Sam was really surprised to learn that that cancer was associated with diabetes, insulin resistance, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. He wanted to dig further on the connection between cancer and metabolic disease.  [02:10] The Nazis Protected Warburg For His Cancer Research In 1923, Warburg makes this famous discovery called the Warburg Effect. Cancer cells take up a lot more glucose than other cells and burn it without oxygen; they ferment it, just like microorganisms do. Warburg also has made other discoveries about how cells breathe and use oxygen. He wins the Nobel Prize in 1931. In 1933, the Nazis come along. Despite having a Jewish father and being openly gay, the Nazis protected Warburg because they were interested in his cancer research. [06:50] Warburg's Studies Started To Disappear After The War After the war, Warburg's cancer research really starts to disappear. Australia in the 1950s famously discovered the structure of DNA. Eventually, we had a new sort of genetic understanding of cancer where we can now identify specific mutations. So, how cells take up glucose and shift their metabolism was considered irrelevant because of the study of genetics. Warburg's studies take peoeple back to diet, and there's a huge bias against taking diet seriously. [12:20] What Sugar Does To Promote Cancer Growth If cancer is about these metabolic shifts inside of a cell, what is it about the way we eat that affects the way a cell eats? In America, one out of three women are diagnosed with cancer within their lifetime. For men, it's about one in two. Cancer is closely linked to obesity. 13 of the deadliest cancers have been solidly linked to obesity. Sam wanted to know if obesity was causing cancer or if something was driving both. Elevated levels of the hormone insulin are responsible for obesity and give microscopic cancers a chance to grow and thrive. What is it about our diet that causes insulin to rise? Sugar! The increase in sugar consumption maps pretty closely to the rise of diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. [19:30] How A Keto Diet That Will Help You Prevent Cancer Sam is a huge believer that keto is a logical way to prevent cancer. The single most important thing you can do to improve your odds for cancer prevention is to keep your insulin levels low. Hyperinsulinemia promotes the growth of cancer. So, it's important to follow a diet that keeps your insulin levels down. [22:20] Intermittent Fasting Is Another Great Way To Lower Insulin Intermittent fasting is one very successful strategy for keeping insulin down. If you can fast consistently, it seems to work quite effectively on lowering insulin. Fasting can lead to weight loss because it lowers insulin levels in the body. Sam wants to point out that thin people can still have insulin resistance. In some ways, being naturally thin can actually be a disadvantage because you can't store subcutaneous fat. [26:30] How To Optimize Insulin and Glucose Levels To Be Proactive Instead of Reactive You can't outrun a bad diet. However, exercise can help you feel better and make you more inspired to follow a low-carb diet. After workouts, you can be inspired to eat healthily and continue to feel good. Once you understand that sugar is linked to cancer, it should help you ditch it during mealtime. [38:30] Finding Therapies To Target Specific Cancer Mutations When cancer can eat lots of glucose, it's no longer thinking about dying; it's thinking about doing a lot more things. Based on which particular mutation you have, the oncologist will devise a treatment. Unfortunately, targeted therapies to specific mutations haven't been as successful as we would have liked. However, there are some cases where therapies will successfully target mutations. [42:25] The Best Preventative Measures To Preventing Cancer In The Future Eliminate sugar from your diet. Definitely eliminate liquid sugar from your diet. If you are insulin resistant, you need to reduce those insulin levels. Stop smoking. Cut out refined carbohydrates.

What are the lessons from the first 15 months of pandemic policies vs science? Was science the reason that we discarded lab origin theories before now exploring them? Were policies like lockdowns justified? And why aren't we paying more attention to anti viral therapies like Ivermectin during a pandemic? Why aren't we talking about the "syndemic" within the pandemic? I discuss these questions and more in this short podcast.

Conventional treatment for diabetes has been wrong for many years. Dr Benjamin Bikman explains the real cause of diabetes, and how to naturally reverse diabetes and insulin resistance through diet changes. RELATED VIDEOS: How to REVERSE INSULIN RESISTANCE (5 Easy Ways) https://youtu.be/CfG8rAyJ5vs What is The Cause of Insulin Resistance? Foods That Lower Insulin With Dr Benjamin Bikman: https://youtu.be/oJiuFDrdS6M Type 2 diabetes symptoms result in higher levels of glucose. Is the solution glucose reducing medications such as insulin? Dr Benjamin Bikman makes the case that medication for diabetes is not getting to the cause. The proper diabetes type 2 diet plan meals should include foods that do not spike glucose and insulin that much. This is why the keto diet and intermittent fasting can be a great way to overcome this lifestyle disease. Purchase Dr Benjamin Bikman's latest book Why We Get Sick: https://amzn.to/3foRBE9 Dr. Benjamin Bikman studies diabetes and obesity, and much of what he focuses on is a seemingly obscure condition called insulin resistance. But it's, in fact, not very obscure at all.  What is insulin resistance? Why did Dr. Benjamin Bikman devote his career to studying something like this? Well, insulin resistance is essentially two things. First of all, some cells in your body aren't responding very well to the hormone insulin. Second, you have more insulin than you did before, a condition called hyperinsulinemia. Dr. Bikman's research focus is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that mediate the disruption that causes and accompanies metabolic disorders, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and dementia. Driven by his academic training (Ph.D. in Bioenergetics and postdoctoral fellowship with the Duke-National University of Singapore in metabolic disorders), he is currently exploring the different roles of insulin and ketones as critical drivers of metabolic function. He frequently publishes his research in peer-reviewed journals and presents at international science meetings.

Researchers study preventing cancer and diabetes with the maqui berry NOVA Southeastern University of Florida, May 27, 2021 Aristotelia chilensis, also known as maqui berry, is a fruit-bearing shrub native to South America.  According to a study published in the journal Phytochemical Analysis, maqui berries are rich in anthocyanins, which give the fruits their dark purple color. Anthocyanins are plant pigments that possess many remarkable biological properties, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral and anti-cancer activities. In a recent study, researchers at NOVA Southeastern University in Florida discussed the potential of Chilean maqui berry for use as a nutritional supplement that can help treat hyperinsulinemia and related diseases. Hyperinsulinemia, or higher-than-normal insulin levels, is often caused by insulin resistance, which is said to be the precursor to diabetes. Chronic hyperinsulinemia also promotes cancer growth by allowing insulin to exert its oncogenic effects, which include enhancing growth factor-dependent cell proliferation, among others. The researchers discussed how Chilean maqui berry can help with insulin resistance and reduce cancer risk in an article published in the journal Food Science and Human Wellness. The medicinal benefits of Chilean maqui berry Researchers have long considered nutritional supplementation to be a possible alternative or adjunct treatment to conventional therapies for common ailments and diseases. According to recent studies, maqui berries can reduce postprandial insulin levels by as much as 50 percent and are just as effective as metformin at increasing insulin sensitivity and stabilizing blood glucose levels. Maqui berries’ mechanism of action involves inhibiting sodium-dependent glucosetransporters in the small intestine and slowing the rate of entry of glucose in the bloodstream. Thanks to these actions, maqui berries can effectively reduce the likelihood of blood sugar spikes and prevent the corresponding rise in insulin levels that follows.  At the same time, maqui berries contribute to cancer prevention since chronically high blood glucose levels — besides chronic hyperinsulinemia — are also linked to the development of cancer. In fact, numerous studies have shown that diabetics and prediabetics have an elevated risk of developing cancerous growths. Based on the findings of previous studies, the researchers believe that consistent supplementation with Chilean maqui berries could indirectly reduce the risk of cancer and other diseases that are promoted by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and hyperinsulinemia.     Studies reveal that social isolation and quarantine throughout the COVID-19 pandemic may have a detrimental impact on physical and mental health of people living with pre-existing conditions University of Naples (Italy) and Teva Pharmaceuticals, May 30, 2021   Abstract 803: Impact of social isolation and quarantine on the course of diabetes mellitus and its complications during Covid 19 pandemic in Adjara Region Country of Georgia Abstract 1337: Psychological distress in patients with hypocortisolism during mass quarantine for Covid-19 epidemic in Italy Studies reveal that social isolation and quarantine throughout the COVID-19 pandemic may have a detrimental impact on people living with pre-existing conditions.  Social isolation and quarantine can have a detrimental impact on physical and mental health of people living with pre-existing conditions, according to two studies being presented at the 23rd European Congress of Endocrinology (e-ECE 2021)  The studies bring together research on the impact of social isolation and quarantine for people living with diabetes in the Adjara Region of Georgia, and on patients with hypocortisolism in Italy. Both studies reported that social isolation during the pandemic caused significant psychological and/or physical distress on the observed individuals.  Data from the first study revealed that the impact of quarantine on people living with diabetes in the Adjara Region caused blood pressure (BP) levels to increase in 88.2% of patients with 50% of these cases resulting in high BP hospitalisation. In addition to these physical factors, increased feelings of anxiety and fear were observed on 82% of patients. In the second study, patients with hypocortisolism experienced increased anxiety and depression, associated with a dissatisfaction feeling of self and a reduced resiliency, when compared with Italian healthy controls. As these are all contributing factors to overall health deterioration, these findings suggest further research is required to allow patients with pre-existing conditions to remain fit and healthy during the current pandemic. In the Adjara Region study, Dr Liana Jashi and the research team disseminated an online questionnaire and collected answers from 16 endocrinologists and 22 family and general practice doctors. The study confirmed the negative, indirect effects social isolation and quarantine had on people living with diabetes. It reported a list of negative effects such as the reduced access to medical care, weight gain and increased cigarette and alcohol consumption. Physical activity decreased by 29.8%, a vital preventative to further physical and psychological problems.  "This study highlights that people living with diabetes require greater support during pandemics to maintain exercise and protect their physical and mental health. National health services should use these data and future studies to implement better social care around supporting people with pre-existing conditions," commented Dr Jashi. In the second study, Dr Chiara Simeoli at the University of Naples reported data collected during the last three weeks of the mass quarantine lasted 2 months in Italy, in a web-survey-based, multicenter, case- control research involving 12 different Italian centres. The study confirmed that a large cohort of 478 patients with hypocortisolism, and particularly, 363 with adrenal insufficiency and 115 with congenital adrenal hyperplasia, adequately treated with glucocorticoids, showed higher anxiety and depression, associated with a dissatisfaction feeling of self and a reduced resiliency, when compared with Italian healthy controls, suggesting the detrimental impact of social isolation on mental health of these patients, particularly frail and vulnerable to infections and stress. Moreover, patients with adrenal insufficiency reported a worse quality of life than patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.  "These findings confirmed that beyond the huge impact on physical health, COVID-19 epidemic, social isolation and mass quarantine represent significant psychological stressors, causing severe effects on mental health, even more on people with pre-existing conditions. An empowerment of psychological counselling for these vulnerable patients during COVID-19 should be considered by national health-care services," adds Dr Simeoli.  Both studies indicate that additional larger studies over a longer period of time are needed for further investigation.       Researchers discover link between local oxygen depletion in the brain and Alzheimer's disease University of Seville (Spain), May 24, 2021 The study, published in the journal Nature Aging and led by the laboratories of Dr. Alberto Pascual (CSIC), from the Neuronal Maintenance Mechanisms Group, and Prof. Javier Vitorica (University of Seville/CIBERNED) of the Physiopathology of Alzheimer's Disease Group at IBiS, demonstrates for the first time that low oxygen levels in the so-called senile plaques in the brain reduces the immune system's defensive capacity against the disease. The study also suggests that this lack of oxygen in the brain enhances the action of disorders associated with Alzheimer's disease that are characterized by low systemic oxygen levels, such as atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases. What happens in the brain? A characteristic feature of Alzheimer's patients is the accumulation of highly toxic substances in their brains, known as senile plaques. The brain has an immune system whose main component are the microglial cells, which were first described and named 100 years ago by Pío del Río Hortega, a disciple of Ramón y Cajal. In the absence of damage, these cells facilitate the neurons' function. In response to Alzheimer's disease, microglia defend neurons by surrounding senile plaques, preventing their spread in the brain and decreasing damage. Alzheimer's disease is aggravated by other pathologies, such as cardiovascular diseases, which cause a decrease in oxygen levels in the body. This study has revealed reduced oxygen levels around senile plaques, compromising microglial activity (Image, center). When this is compounded by reduced oxygen supply to the brain due to other systemic pathologies, the microglia are unable to provide protection and there is an increase in the pathology associated with the disease. Relevance Alzheimer's disease is the leading cause of dementia in Spain and around the world. In Spain, its incidence is increasing dramatically as the population ages. Unfortunately, the origin of the disease remains unknown. The mechanism proposed in this study is mediated by the expression of the HIF1 molecule, whose discoverers received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2019. Increased HIF1 levels compromise the mitochondrial activity of microglial cells and limit their protective capacity against disease. This study opens new lines of research to improve the metabolic capacity of microglia, which would enable a sustained response over time against the disease. Indirectly, the study supports previous work highlighting the importance of maintaining good cardiovascular health for healthy aging.   Effect of different doses of melatonin on learning and memory deficit in Alzheimer model Guilan University of Medical Sciences (Iran), May 21, 2021   According to news reporting out of Rasht, Iran, research stated, “Alzheimer Disease (AD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder with a progressive impairment of cognitive function. The pineal gland hormone melatonin (MEL) has been known as a protection agent against AD.” Our news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Guilan University of Medical Sciences: “However, the effect of melatonin in various doses is inconsistent. In this study, we aimed to investigate two doses of MEL on learning and memory in the amyloid-beta (Ab)-induced AD in the rats. Forty-eight male Wistar rats were used in the experiment and randomly divided control, sham, vehicle, AD, AD+MEL10 mg/kg, and AD+MEL 20 mg/kg groups. Intracerebroventricular injection of Ab1-42 was used to develop the animal model of AD. Also, MEL-treated groups received an intraperitoneal injection of MEL for 4 next weeks. The Morris Water Maze (MWM) and Passive Avoidance Learning (PAL) tests were used to examine animals’ learning and memory. The brain of animals was removed for immunohistochemistry for anti- Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP). Intra-peritoneal injection of MEL significantly improve learning and memory in MWM (P=0.000) and PAL test (P=0.000), but there were no significant changes in the two groups that received the melatonin (P>0.05). Histopathological analysis revealed that the clearance of APP deposition in the AD+MEL20 group was considerable compared with the AD+MEL10 group (P=0.000).” According to the news editors, the research concluded: “Our findings indicate that 10 and 20 mg/kg doses of melatonin have similar results on learning and memory in the AD model. But 20 mg/kg of melatonin has significantly more effect on the clearance of APP deposition.”     Effects of flaxseed on blood pressure, body mass index, and total cholesterol in hypertensive patients: A randomized clinical trial Lorestan University of Medical Sciences (Iran), May 25, 2021 Objectives Given the antioxidant properties of flaxseed and its biologically active ingredients, this study was conducted to determine the effects of flaxseed supplementation on body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and total cholesterol levels in patients with hypertension. Methods In this triple-blind clinical trial, 112 patients, with an age range of 35 to 70 years, were randomized to 2 groups receiving 10 g (n=45) and 30 g (n=45) of flaxseed supplementation and 1 group receiving placebo (n=45) for 12 weeks by stratified block randomization. They were evaluated in terms of systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), BMI, and total serum cholesterol. Physical activity was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire–Short Form (IPAQ–SF) and food intake was assessed using the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). The data were analyzed with SPSS, version 22, using the chi-square, Kruskal–Wallis, repeated measures analysis, ANOVA, and ANCOVA tests. Results The interaction effects among the study groups and time on the mean SBP (p = 0.001), DBP (p = 0.001), total cholesterol level (p = 0.032), and BMI (p < 0.001) were significant. During the study, the 30-g group achieved the best results, so that a 13.38-unit decrease in SBP was observed compared to a 1.72 unit increase in the placebo group and a 5.6-unit decrease in DBP was measured compared to a 2.39 unit increase in the placebo group. BMI decreased by 0.86 units compared to 0.06 units in the placebo group. Total cholesterol also decreased by 20.4 units compared to 11.86 units in the placebo group. Conclusion The results of this study showed that flaxseed can be effective in reducing blood pressure, total cholesterol, and body mass index in hypertensive patients in a twelve-week period.     Study: Don't count on caffeine to fight sleep deprivation Michigan State University, May 27, 2021 Rough night of sleep? Relying on caffeine to get you through the day isn't always the answer, says a new study from Michigan State University. Researchers from MSU's Sleep and Learning Lab, led by psychology associate professor Kimberly Fenn, assessed how effective caffeine was in counteracting the negative effects of sleep deprivation on cognition. As it turns out, caffeine can only get you so far. The study -- published in the most recent edition of Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, & Cognition -- assessed the impact of caffeine after a night of sleep deprivation. More than 275 participants were asked to complete a simple attention task as well as a more challenging "placekeeping" task that required completion of tasks in a specific order without skipping or repeating steps. Fenn's study is the first to investigate the effect of caffeine on placekeeping after a period of sleep deprivation. "We found that sleep deprivation impaired performance on both types of tasks and that having caffeine helped people successfully achieve the easier task. However, it had little effect on performance on the placekeeping task for most participants," Fenn said. She added: "Caffeine may improve the ability to stay awake and attend to a task, but it doesn't do much to prevent the sort of procedural errors that can cause things like medical mistakes and car accidents."  Insufficient sleep is pervasive in the United States, a problem that has intensified during the pandemic, Fenn said. Consistently lacking adequate sleep not only affects cognition and alters mood, but can eventually take a toll on immunity.  "Caffeine increases energy, reduces sleepiness and can even improve mood, but it absolutely does not replace a full night of sleep, Fenn said. "Although people may feel as if they can combat sleep deprivation with caffeine, their performance on higher-level tasks will likely still be impaired. This is one of the reasons why sleep deprivation can be so dangerous." Fenn said that the study has the potential to inform both theory and practice.  "If we had found that caffeine significantly reduced procedural errors under conditions of sleep deprivation, this would have broad implications for individuals who must perform high stakes procedures with insufficient sleep, like surgeons, pilots and police officers," Fenn said. "Instead, our findings underscore the importance of prioritizing sleep."     Parkinson's disease more likely in people with depression, study suggests Umea University (Sweden), May 21 2021     People with depression may be more likely to develop the movement disorder Parkinson's disease, according to new research published in Neurology.   According to the authors of the study, depression is more common in people with Parkinson's disease than those without the movement disorder. "We saw this link between depression and Parkinson's disease over a timespan of more than 2 decades, so depression may be a very early symptom of Parkinson's disease or a risk factor for the disease," says study co-author Prof. Peter Nordström, at Umeå University in Sweden. Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder of the nervous system that affects how a person moves, including how they speak and write. As well as problems with movement, Parkinson's disease can also cause cognitive problems, neurobehavioral problems and sensory difficulties. The authors of the study state that depression is more common in patients with Parkinson's disease than in members of the general population. The mood disorder has a major influence on health-related quality of life and could also be involved in more rapid deterioration of cognitive and motor functions. However, few studies have investigated this association for periods of longer than 10 years, with any long-term findings so far inconclusive. For the study, the researchers used a cohort consisting of all Swedish citizens aged 50 years and above as of December 31st, 2005. From this group, they then took the 140,688 people diagnosed with depression . These individuals were each matched with three control participants (a total of 421,718 controls) of the same age and sex who had not been diagnosed with depression. The participants were then followed for up to 26 years. A total of 1,485 people with depression (1.1%) developed Parkinson's disease during this time, compared with 1,775 of those who did not have depression (0.4%). On average, Parkinson's disease was diagnosed 4.5 years after the beginning of the study, with the likelihood of the disorder developing decreasing over time. No sibling link found for depression and Parkinson's disease The researchers calculated that participants with depression were 3.2 times more likely than those without depression to develop Parkinson's disease within a year of the study beginning. After 15-25 years, the researchers found participants with depression were almost 50% more likely to develop the condition. If a participant's depression was severe, their likelihood of developing Parkinson's disease was also higher. For example, those who had been hospitalized for depression five or more times were 40% more likely to develop Parkinson's disease than participants who had been hospitalized for depression just once. In addition to these observations, the researchers examined siblings. No link was found between one sibling having Parkinson's disease and the other having depression. "This finding gives us more evidence that these two diseases are linked," says Prof. Nordström. "If the diseases were independent of each other but caused by the same genetic or early environmental factors, then we would expect to see the two diseases group together in siblings, but that didn't happen." The authors suggest there are a number of mechanisms that could explain their findings. Depression or antidepressive treatment could increase the risk of Parkinson's disease, depression could be an early symptom of Parkinson's disease, or that the two conditions could share environmental causative factors. In the paper, the authors acknowledge that they are unable to evaluate the potential role of substances used in antidepressive treatment as risk factors for Parkinson's disease. The study is an observational one and cannot determine causation. "Our findings suggest a direct association between depression and subsequent [Parkinson's disease], supported by a time-dependent hazard ratio, a dose-response pattern for recurrent depression, and a lack of evidence for coaggregation among siblings," the authors conclude. "Given that the association was significant over more than two decades of follow-up, depression may be a very early prodromal symptom of or a causal risk factor for [Parkinson's disease]." Elsewhere, a study published in December previously suggested that users of methamphetamine are at three times more risk of getting Parkinson's disease than people who do not use illegal drugs.

Did you know that T2 Diabetes, heart disease, and obesity typically have Insulin Resistance in common? It's quite fascinating actually!Hyperinsulinemia is a term that means a person's body has higher levels of insulin than normal. Despite having more insulin, the body does not respond any better to insulin's directions. This makes a human insulin resistant. Most adult Americans have hyperinsulinemia.

Abstract: Understanding kinetic control of biological processes is as important as identifying components that constitute pathways. Insulin-signaling (IS) is central for almost all metazoans and its perturbations are associated with various diseases and aging. While temporal phosphorylation changes and kinetic constants have provided some insights, constant or variable parameters that establish and maintain signal topology are poorly understood. Our iterative experimental and mathematical simulation-based approaches reveal novel kinetic parameters that encode concentration and nutrient dependent information. Further, we find that pulsatile fasting insulin rewires IS akin to memory and in anticipation of a fed response. Importantly, selective kinetic gating of signals and maximum connectivity, between metabolic and growth-factor arms under normo-insulinemic states, maintains network topology. In addition to unraveling kinetic constraints that determine cascade architecture, our findings will help in identifying novel therapeutic strategies that conserve coupling between metabolic and growth-factor arms, which is lost in diseases and conditions of hyperinsulinemia.
