Le pulsar PSR J0453+1559 a été découvert en 2015, il est remarquable car il s'agit d'un système binaire rare composé de deux étoiles à neutrons. Ce qui a rendu PSR J0453+1559 encore plus surprenant, ce sont les masses des étoiles à neutrons. Alors que l'étoile première a une masse de 1,559 masses solaires, la seconde atteint seulement 1,174 M☉, ce qui en fait l'étoile à neutrons la plus petite connue, une masse si faible qu'elle est difficile à expliquer. Une équipe d'astrophysiciens ont effectué des simulations et arrivent à produire une étoile à neutrons de 1,192 masses solaires... on y est presque. L'étude est parue dans Physical Review Letters.

Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher explore the difference between type one and type two muscle fibers—why they matter, how they function, and how to train them effectively. They discuss why neglecting type two fibers can lead to rapid muscle loss and how simple strength exercises can make a huge difference in keeping you strong, mobile, and functional for life. Join us to hear ways a sedentary lifestyle weakens type two muscle fibers and how small changes in your workouts can have a huge impact on your long-term health. What are type one and type two muscle fibers, and why does it matter? Dr. Fisher explains that type one fibers are built for endurance, while type two fibers generate explosive power—think marathon runners versus sprinters or powerlifters. Dr. Fisher dives deeper into why we shouldn't think of our bodies as purely type one or type two. While genetics play a role, the way we train determines how these fibers develop and function over time. The Size Principle explains how our bodies recruit muscle fibers based on demand. If we only perform light movements, we activate type one fibers, but if we never lift heavy, we neglect type two—leading to faster muscle decline as we age. Amy asks whether someone could go decades only recruiting type one fibers. Dr. Fisher says this is a common issue, especially for sedentary individuals like office workers who don't challenge their muscles regularly. According to Amy, the problem with neglecting type two muscle fibers is that they're the ones that decline the fastest with age. If we spend our 30s, 40s, and beyond avoiding high-effort exercise, we'll lose strength rapidly, making everyday tasks harder over time. Amy points out that as we age, our exercise approach has to evolve. What worked in our 20s might not be enough to maintain type two muscle fibers in our 40s, 50s, and beyond. So how do we train type two fibers? Dr. Fisher emphasizes that you don't need to lift extremely heavy weights. The key is engaging in strength training with sufficient intensity to activate those fibers. Having a personal trainer overseeing your workouts can go a long way in ensuring you're training with sufficient enough intensity. For Amy, the difference between recruiting type one and type two fibers comes down to duration and intensity. For older adults who haven't exercised in years, strength training is a game-changer. Dr. Fisher explains that if the choice is between walking for 20 minutes or strength training for 10 minutes, the latter offers significantly more benefits for health and longevity. Resistance is your ally—when applied safely and at the right intensity, it triggers type two muscle fibers and helps us maintain strength as we age. Amy and Dr. Fisher agree that maintaining muscle is about more than just fitness—it's about preserving independence and quality of life. Dr. Fisher introduces the concept of concentric and eccentric muscle actions, explaining how both play a role in muscle development. The eccentric phase—where the muscle lengthens under tension—may be particularly effective for type two fiber recruitment. He highlights the benefits of exerbotic devices, like those used in The Exercise Coach, which provide more resistance during the eccentric phase. Amy talks about the future of fitness, and how embracing resistance training—especially with innovative tools—will be key to staying strong and functional for life.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

N Engl J Med 2024;390:1481-1492Background: In patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), opening the culprit artery improves outcomes. Nearly half of STEMI patients have disease in other coronary arteries. Whether revascularizing these non-culprit arteries improves outcomes remained uncertain. The PRAMI trial showed improvement in outcomes with complete revascularization but was relatively small, included 465 patients, and did not require the use of fractional flow reserve (FFR).Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The FFR-Guidance for Complete Nonculprit Revascularization (FULL REVASC) trial sought to assess if FFR-guided completed revascularization improves outcomes compared to culprit-only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).The COMPLETE trial was not published by the time the FULL REVASC trial started enrolling patients.Patients: Eligible patients had STEMI and were undergoing PCI or had high risk NSETMI undergoing urgent PCI. High risk NSTEMI included patients with dynamic ST–T-wave changes, ongoing chest pain, acute heart failure, hemodynamic instability independent of electrocardiographic changes, or life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias.Eligible patients had to have multivessel coronary artery disease, defined as one or more lesions in a nonculprit artery with a diameter of ≥ 2.5 mm and a visually graded stenosis of 50 - 99%.Patients were excluded if they had previous CABG, left main disease or cardiogenic shock.Baseline characteristics: The trial randomized 1,542 patients – 778 randomized to culprit-only PCI and 764 randomized to complete revascularization. Patients were recruited from 32 centers in 7 countries.Approximately 91% of the patients had STEMI and 9% had high risk NSTEMI.The average age of patients was 65 years and 76% were men. Approximately 51% had hypertension, 16% had diabetes, 23% were on treatment for hyperlipidemia, 8% had prior myocardial infarction, and 35% were current smokers.The number of residual coronary arteries with stenosis of 50-99% was 1 in 72% of the patients and 2 or more in the rest.Procedures: Patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to undergo culprit-only PCI or FFR-guide complete revascularization. The study was open label.Patients in the culprit-PCI only group did not receive further revascularization during the index hospitalization. Patients in the FFR-guided complete revascularization could receive further revascularization during the index procedure or during the index hospitalization. PCI of non-culprit lesion was recommended if FFR was 0.80 or less.Endpoints: The primary outcome was a composite of death from any cause, myocardial infarction, or unplanned revascularization. The main secondary outcomes were a composite of death from any cause or myocardial infarction and unplanned revascularizationAnalysis was performed based on the intention-to-treat principle. The estimated sample size to achieve 80% with a two-sided alpha of 0.05 was 4,052 patients. This sample size would detect 0.75 risk ratio for the composite outcome of death or myocardial infarction at 1-year assuming 9.9% event rate in the culprit-only PCI. After the publication of the COMPLETE trial, the trial was stopped early due to ethical and feasibility concerns. Consequently, the original key secondary outcome (death from any cause, myocardial infarction, or unplanned revascularization) became the new primary outcome, and events after 1 year of follow-up were included in the primary analysis.Results: The trial was stopped after randomizing 38.1% of the original sample size. Among the patients assigned to the FFR-guided complete-revascularization arm, the procedure was followed in 95.9% of the patients, and among these patients, 17.9% underwent FFR-guided complete revascularization of non-culprit lesions during the primary PCI and the rest during the index hospitalization. Among the patients assigned to culprit-only arm, the assigned strategy was followed in 99.6% of the patients. The median follow-up time was 4.8 years.FFR was 0.8 or less in 392 (47.3%) of non-culprit vessels assessed, and PCI was performed in 369 (94.1%) of these vessels. In total, PCI was performed in 18.8% of the total non-culprit vessels. The average number of stents during the index hospitalization was 1 in the culprit-only PCI group and 2 in the complete revascularization group.The primary composite outcome was not significantly different between both treatment groups (19.0% with complete-revascularization vs 20.4% with culprit-only PCI, HR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.74 - 1.17; p= 0.53). There were also no significant differences in composite endpoint of death from any cause or myocardial infarction (16.5% with complete revascularization vs 15.3% with culprit-only PCI) or unplanned revascularization (9.2% with complete revascularization vs 11.7% with culprit-only PCI).Stent thrombosis and stent restenosis were significantly more frequent in the complete revascularization arm (2.5% vs 0.9%, HR: 2.80, 95% CI: 1.18 – 6.67) and (4.2% vs 2.3%, HR: 1.84, 95% CI: 1.03 – 3.28), respectively.Baseline risk or coronary anatomy did not significantly affect subgroup interactions for the primary outcome.Conclusion: In patients with STEMI or high risk NSTEMI, FFR-guided complete revascularization compared to culprit-only PCI, did not improve the outcomes of death from any cause, myocardial infarction, or unplanned revascularization, over a median follow up time of 4.8 years. Complete revascularization resulted in more stent thrombosis and stent restenosis.The study lost some statistical power by stopping early, resulting in a final power of 74%. We disagree with the authors' decision to halt the trial prematurely based on the findings of the COMPLETE trial. COMPLETE was the first large trial to demonstrate a benefit in hard outcomes when revascularizing stable plaques, and its results warrant further confirmation. Furthermore, COMPLETE used different strategy as FFR was not required.Note to readers: Power measures the study's ability to avoid a Type II error (false negative) and it equals 1 - β with β being the probability of a Type II error. In other words, power represents the probability of correctly rejecting the null hypothesis (H₀) when the alternative hypothesis (H₁) is true. Most clinical trials aim for 80% or 90% power. For example, a study with 80% power has a 20% risk of failing to detect a real effect.Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Marc Velez is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine who has nearly 20 years of experience helping people understand their bodies and rediscover their health. By honoring the ancient wisdom of Chinese medicine while incorporating modern breakthroughs in contemporary wellness medicine, Dr. Marc practices a truly integrative form of natural medicine that seeks to restore harmony to the body and mind. Dr. Marc began his journey into Chinese medicine in his late teens, growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area. Having parents who both suffered from autoimmune disease and the iatrogenic effects of the medical treatments used at that time, he felt a deep calling to discover a better way to treat disease. Rather than focusing on disease as an enemy to be conquered, Dr. Marc came to understand the symptoms of illness as messages spoken by the voice of the body - sometimes whispering, while at other times shouting to get our attention - and ultimately concluded that the highest form of medicine is one that seeks to prevent the occurrence of disease, followed by gently correcting imbalances to restore the body's righteous function. These conclusions were proven repeatedly over the years of practice that followed. Using a unique blend of Eastern and Western medicine approaches, he has successfully restored health to hundreds of patients - correcting digestive problems, curing migraine headaches, soothing anxiety, and putting Type II diabetes and chronic kidney disease into remission. Dr. Marc continues to devote his life's work to the luminous emergence of the human spirit as it manifests through the physical, mental, and spiritual.

In this episode of Fit, Fun, and Frazzled, Nikki talks about a question many women in midlife ask themselves: Is heavy lifting the only way to build strength and improve body composition? As we age, maintaining muscle mass becomes increasingly important, but does that mean we have to push our bodies to muscle failure by lifting heavy weights? This episode explores the science behind muscle growth, discussing the role of different muscle fibers, hormonal changes, and the potential risks that heavy lifting can pose—especially for those in their late 40s and beyond who may struggle with inflammation, back issues, and injury risks. We talk about the differences between Type I and Type II muscle fibers, and how varying your workout routine could offer similar benefits without the strain of heavy lifting. The episode also touches on alternative training methods such as bodyweight exercises, Pilates, resistance bands, and strength-focused yoga, which are kinder to the joints and can still lead to lean muscle mass and body composition improvements. We discuss the importance of muscle stimulation and how exercises focusing on endurance and muscle engagement can provide effective results while reducing the risks of injury. In addition, we address the emotional and mental impacts of pushing to muscle failure and the often-overlooked benefits of more intuitive movement practices. Our conversation emphasizes the importance of listening to your body, balancing different types of workouts, and finding a sustainable routine that builds strength without leading to burnout or physical stress. Key Takeaways: • Heavy lifting isn't the only way to build strength and improve body composition. • Exploring alternative methods like Pilates, bodyweight exercises, and yoga can offer similar benefits with lower risk of injury. • Intuitive movement and listening to your body play a crucial role in developing a sustainable fitness routine. • Addressing the hormonal changes that impact muscle mass and strength as we age.

We are all assuming something about the nature of reality. Our core assumptions exist because there isn't definitive proof for any belief system. In this thought-provoking episode, Catherine and her guest, David Richardson, take a deep dive into the core assumptions that shape our beliefs about reality. In his first book Transparent: How to See Through the Powerful Assumptions That Control You, Dave defines the three primary types of assumers: Type I, Type II, and Type III, each with distinct perspectives on the nature of reality. Type I Assumers believe in a materialistic world where only physical matter and energy are considered real and important. This perspective is the foundation for understanding the world through a purely physical lens. Type II Assumers view reality as primarily non-physical, emphasizing beliefs that focus on spiritual or idealistic objectives. This perspective leads to beliefs in spiritual evolution or sociopolitical perfection as driving forces in the universe. Type III Assumers recognize a dual reality where both physical and non-physical aspects coexist, all created by a higher power. This perspective highlights the importance of acknowledging the Creator and creation in shaping one's view of reality. The impact of these core assumptions are vast and explain virtually everything that is going on in our world today, like how extreme progressives are siding with radical Islamists on college campuses. Have you been wondering why that is? If you look at what Islam teaches, it is the opposite of what Progressivism preaches. They are diametrically opposed. Dave explains how such divergent belief systems are finding a kinship on college campuses across the country. Spoiler alert: It has something to do with their underlying assumptions. Dave also shares his critical assumptions test, an invaluable evangelistic tool that helps individuals evaluate a person's core assumptions and their alignment with reality. This test consists of eight questions that prompt someone to reflect on their beliefs about the nature of reality, the origin of knowledge, and the purpose of human existence. By engaging with this test, you can quickly assess what a person believes and see how their core assumptions affirm or deny reality. Guest bio: David Richardson, author of Transparent: How to See Through the Powerful Assumptions That Control You, is the founder of the Assumptions Institute and its Chief Executive Officer. Prior to founding the Assumptions Institute, Richardson served for 30 years on the staff of Cru, formerly known as Campus Crusade for Christ, devoting most of his ministry to university professors. He holds a B.A. degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of Portland, and an M.A. degree in Theological Studies from the International School of Theology.

“Blood sugar is like comparing water to Kool-Aid – while water flows through our body, Kool-Aid can't flow as well because it's stickier. When we have too much sugar in our bloodstream, our body has a harder time carrying out the processes it needs to.” - Dr. Georgia Nab   About 1 in 5 people in the United States have diabetes but don't know it, according to the CDC. While people generally know sugar isn't good for the body, most people don't know why our consumption of it needs to be managed – not eliminated. In today's show, Dr. Michelle Robin invites Dr. Georgia Nab – a Functional Medicine doctor at Your Wellness Connection – to help people understand what's really happening in the body once we consume sugar and why it's then converted to blood sugar. If you have ever wondered what glycemic and glucose mean – or the difference between metabolic syndrome (prediabetes), Type I, Type I.5, Type II, and Type III – this week's episode will give you a clearer understanding of each one in very simple terms. Dr. Nab even dives into how our blood sugar numbers have a tremendous impact on our hormonal levels and anxiety issues in today's world. She encourages listeners that small changes can make a big difference. At the end of the episode, Dr. Nab will also share why sleep and movement matter in managing your blood sugar – ending with some tips that can help you get on a better path toward wellness. About Today's Guest:  Dr. Georgia Nab entered the chiropractic industry in 1992 by owning a chiropractic clinic in Wichita, Kansas.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: AE Studio @ SXSW: We need more AI consciousness research (and further resources), published by AE Studio on March 27, 2024 on LessWrong. Quick update from AE Studio: last week, Judd (AE's CEO) hosted a panel at SXSW with Anil Seth, Allison Duettmann, and Michael Graziano, entitled "The Path to Conscious AI" (discussion summary here[1]). We're also making available an unedited Otter transcript/recording for those who might want to read along or increase the speed of the playback. Why AI consciousness research seems critical to us With the release of each new frontier model seems to follow a cascade of questions probing whether or not the model is conscious in training and/or deployment. We suspect that these questions will only grow in number and volume as these models exhibit increasingly sophisticated cognition. If consciousness is indeed sufficient for moral patienthood, then the stakes seem remarkably high from a utilitarian perspective that we do not commit the Type II error of behaving as if these and future systems are not conscious in a world where they are in fact conscious. Because the ground truth here (i.e., how consciousness works mechanistically) is still poorly understood, it is extremely challenging to reliably estimate the probability that we are in any of the four quadrants above - which seems to us like a very alarming status quo. Different people have different default intuitions about this question, but the stakes here seem too high for default intuitions to be governing our collective behavior. In an ideal world, we'd have understood far more about consciousness and human cognition before getting near AGI. For this reason, we suspect that there is likely substantial work that ought to be done at a smaller scale first to better understand consciousness and its implications for alignment. Doing this work now seems far preferable to a counterfactual world where we build frontier models that end up being conscious while we still lack a reasonable model for the correlates or implications of building sentient AI systems. Accordingly, we are genuinely excited about rollouts of consciousness evals at large labs, though the earlier caveat still applies: our currently-limited understanding of how consciousness actually works may engender a (potentially dangerous) false sense of confidence in these metrics. Additionally, we believe testing and developing an empirical model of consciousness will enable us to better understand humans, our values, and any future conscious models. We also suspect that consciousness may be an essential cognitive component of human prosociality and may have additional broader implications for solutions to alignment. To this end, we are currently collaborating with panelist Michael Graziano in pursuing a more mechanistic model of consciousness by operationalizing attention schema theory. Ultimately, we believe that immediately devoting time, resources, and attention towards better understanding the computational underpinnings of consciousness may be one of the most important neglected approaches that can be pursued in the short term. Better models of consciousness could likely (1) cause us to dramatically reconsider how we interact with and deploy our current AI systems, and (2) yield insights related to prosociality/human values that lead to promising novel alignment directions. Resources related to AI consciousness Of course, this is but a small part of a larger, accelerating conversation that has been ongoing on LW and the EAF for some time. We thought it might be useful to aggregate some of the articles we've been reading here, including panelists Michael Graziano's book, " Rethinking Consciousness" (and article, Without Consciousness, AIs Will Be Sociopaths) as well as Anil Seth's book, " Being You". There's also Propositions...

Libre Free Two Week Trial My Blood Glucose ResultsToday we're talking about something that affects each and every one of us: our blood glucose levels.Now, you might be thinking, "Blood glucose? Isn't that just a concern for people with diabetes?" But here's the thing: Monitoring your blood glucose is crucial for everyone. It's actually one of the highest risk factors for a number of health issues. And guess what? The food you eat impacts your blood glucose levels, and it affects everyone differently.So, let's dive right in. First off, why is blood glucose so important? Well, consistently high blood glucose levels can lead to serious health problems, and we're not just talking diabetes here, it includes heart disease, kidney failure, and even blindness. It's not just a minor issue; it's a major risk factor for a host of complications.But here's where it gets interesting – and a bit complicated. The way our bodies react to different foods can vary wildly. Research has shown that while one person may get a fast blood glucose increase (or a spike) from eating a bowl of ice cream, this doesn't happen to everyone……That means the same food that spikes one person's blood sugar might not have the same effect on someone else. It's a real eye-opener and a big reason why a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition just doesn't work.Therefore, when a client has a conversation about nutrition, and they ask for my personal opinion on which foods they should eat…… how can I honestly answer that with any real insight? The first step, in my opinion, is to understand how the foods we eat regularly affect our blood glucose levels. And it amazes me that so many of my clients who have been diagnosed as having Type II diabetes, or have pre-diabetes, are not advised to check their blood glucose levels AT ALL!! They're on medication to ‘control it' but never measure their blood glucose levels…..The saying ‘What we measure, we can manage' has never been more applicable here. Type II diabetes is for the vast majority of us, a lifestyle disease, which means that our lifestyle… the things we consistently do day in and day out have caused this to happen. So giving us medication, and providing no advice on how we can change our lifestyle for the better sounds like a backwards way of dealing with it. Now this is where we come up against the first problem….. passive sick care versus active healthcare…If you're not willing to accept that what you're doing day in day out is harming your health, and that in order to change that you're going to have to change something and put some effort in to forming new habits…The sort of person who says things like;‘Well, what should I expect at my age…'And they're just turning 60!! Personally, I expect to be running around and keeping up with those in their 40's!Time will only work against us if consistently make decisions that harm our health.Anyone noticed what happens when you go to the gym consistently for a few months? You start to notice improvements right? Well, if you can start to get a hold on what foods are causing your blood glucose levels to spike, then you can start to manage your type II diabetes better….. and in a lot of cases I've heard of people reversing it entirely! Through LIFESTYLE CHANGES……. They reversed a lifestyle disease…… see how much sense that makes?! Well my philosophy is before you start changing things you need to know where you are right now. That way you can measure the changes… positive or negative that have been...

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog There are almost as many different human metabolic variations as there are people in the world.  Our genetics make us all unique in ways that vary the way we can lose weight or even gain weight. On the other hand, we all had to descend from humans who survived famine, lack of water and lack of nutrition sources, so in one way we are all the same…we have genes that helped us survive times that required of us the ability to maintain our weight even without eating!  The people who genetically were unable to gain fat and keep it to hold them over during famine just didn't make it to an age they could procreate. The rest of us whose ancestors survived, have given the majority of us the genes to maintain body fat.   Unfortunately, we have been blindly unaware of what man's evolution and progress has led us to physically, and most of us are over-fat, and have trouble losing it!  The very genes that allowed us to survive the beginning of man's existence, are the same ones that make it hard to become slender. In addition, in our current societies in the western world, food is plentiful and inexpensive.  Our genes have not changed, but our environment has, and we are becoming sick because of our obesity…how do we survive this “new world”? You may hear a lot about insulin resistance, and I talk about it a lot on my Healthcasts, but it is insulin resistance that has allowed us to survive and has also led us to obesity today.  The humans who were insulin resistant who also held on to their fat in times of starvation are also the humans who have become obese in the face of plenty. We can't change our genes, but we can turn some of the obesity genes off through lifestyle and sometimes with the help of medication. Despite our basic sameness, we are also each individual, and genetically programed so that some of us lose weight if we restrict calories, others lose weight only if they exercise; Some of us don't lose weight with exercise; some people don't lose weight with carbohydrate restriction or fat restriction, and some do.  This is the ugly truth that lies behind the millions of books on diet, none of which work for more than a small number of us, and because it is a diet we can't maintain it...what we need is to determine is the best weight loss program for each of us, by using trial and error, or by using genetic testing that tells us what our best pathway to a normal weight looks like.   To begin we must take baby steps and learn about food and what the words mean that we use when referring to food.  Because there are many people who may have several hurdles to jump before they can live at their healthy weight, we need to all speak the same language of weight loss.   So let's start with a bit of education about food.   WHAT IS A SIMPLE SUGAR?   A simple sugar is a nutrient meant to give you energy for physical activity. Eating a small amount of a simple or a complex sugar before exercise is a good idea. However, if you sit most of your day, working with your brain instead of your body, simple sugars can increase your fat storage because you aren't physically working. This is true whether restricting sugar is your genetic method of weight loss or not. Too many simple sugars make you hungry and cause everyone to overeat.….causing weight gain and fat gain. So what are simple sugars?   Examples of simple sugars:   ·      Sugar, white, cane  and brown ·      Molasses ·      Regular Soda ·      Agave ·      Honey ·      Syrup-maple or any ·      Rice, white and brown ·      Cereals-all ·      Oatmeal ·      Donuts ·      White potatoes ·      Bread ·      Pancakes/waffles ·      Noodles ·      All Grains: wheat, oats, rice, corn and anything made from them including flour ·      Sweet tea ·      All Cakes, brownies, candy, chips, and many energy bars ·      All bagged snacks like pretzels, chips, cookies, and fruit with sugar added ·      Pies and most desserts, except fresh or frozen fruit. ·      Dried Fruit (has sugar added eat frozen fruit instead.) ·      All non-milk-based salad dressings except plain Olive oil and vinegar.   Note: All diet sodas have chemicals that stimulate insulin like sugar.  There are a few brands that use Stevia (an herb that is sweet, and not a chemical) and they are the exception so you can drink those without stimulating fat production.  Other options are unsweetened bubble water or plain water.     Eventually eating a diet filled with simple sugars leads to obesity, and diabetes no matter who you are, therefore if you are in not working physically with your body all day, every day ( machinists, farmers -in the summer, factory workers, outdoor laborers) you should not eat these foods except in small amounts with a protein to lengthen the time until you feel hungry again. The rest of us should rarely eat these foods. They should be considered foods for “special events”.     If you exercise aerobically and/or with weights for more than an hour at a time, then you may eat a small amount of simple sugars but eating small amount of complex sugars is healthier to help you maintain your muscle mass and your exercise stamina while losing fat.       COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES: EAT INSTEAD OF SIMPLE SUGARS     SWEET POTATOES   Sweet potatoes taste sweet and have complex Carbohydrates so it takes longer for them to be digested which means they do not stimulate the secretion of insulin as fast or as high as white potatoes. They are a complex sugar.   Sweet Potatoes also have several health benefits including antioxidant healing role and anti-inflammatory properties.   CHICKPEAS (GARBANZO BEANS, BLACK BEANS AND LENTILS) Legumes like chickpeas, black beans, and lentils are not only complex carbohydrates buy are a great source of dietary fiber, making them wise choices for a filling you up and satisfying the pre-workout carbohydrate requirement.   QUINOA   Quinoa is a good source of plant protein. It can be a substitute for bread or pasta.   WHOLE GRAIN BREADS LIKE DAVE'S LOW CARB & HIGH PROTEIN BREAD   Whole grain bread like Dave's Bread has enough fiber and nut protein to prevent excessive stimulation of your insulin. Too much insulin leads to insulin resistance and causes fat gain instead of giving your cells energy. One piece of bread per meal is all you should eat if you are overweight and or have Type II diabetes in your family. Make sure you are not eating more than 25 grams of carb in any meal.   WILD RICE- is a seed and not a “rice”   You should eat wild rice instead of any other type of rice and only in small amounts.  All complex carbs should be eaten in small portions because in large portions they act just like simple carbs and increase weight gain.     NUTS: Cashews, Almonds, Walnuts, Chestnuts,   Nuts of all kinds can be a substitute for carbs in any form.  A handful of nuts should be enough to decrease your hunger and increase your protein as well as decrease insulin response to eating.   The Combination of foods that you eat is also important.  If you are going to eat any carbohydrate it should be paired with a protein and or a fat.   For example: If you are going to eat a piece of bread, then you can eat it with butter and or peanut butter or cheese or eggs.  This slows the absorption of the carbohydrate from the bread and prevents your blood sugar from surging and plummeting after you eat, leaving you fatigued and sleepy.   In The Dr. Maupin's Diet in my book the Secret Female Hormone, I recommend eating multiple times a day and controlling simple carbs and carbs from sugar and grains.  Scientifically it is a fact that if you eat 25 grams or less of carbohydrate foods from sugar or grains per meal then you can prevent Insulin resistance and the additional fat that follows insulin resistance.  It is also a good way to lose fat.  In my diet a person can eat as much fruit and veggies as they desire, except white potatoes and bananas.   WHAT YOU EAT, IS AS IMPORTANT AS HOW MUCH YOU EAT!   Other Strategies for weight loss include eating a protein with each carb which decreases the total volume of food you eat and increases satiety.   ·      Saving your carbs to be eaten before exercise.   ·      Portion Control of all food.   ·      Limit alcohol.  0- 4 drinks a week   ·      Daily exercise for over an hour/day.   ·      Drink a glass of water before you eat.   ·      Skip dessert   ·      Eat a salad daily   ·      Eat more than half your weight in grams of protein (Meat, cheese, eggs, milk products, whey protein and more)    The basic information was from my over 45 years of practice and Information provided by Inbody.  If you know by experience or you have had your genetics tested to reveal that limiting carbohydrates is needed for you to lose fat, then I hope this blog helped you understand what I mean when I tell you to limit your carbohydrate intake to less than 25 grams per meal.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, we are joined by Al Marriott, known on trail as Lookout. Lookout is a 2023 PCT thru-hiker, and one of the very few who was able to connect their footsteps on a continuous northbound hike through the Sierra. This is the main course of our conversation today as we learn all about the wild conditions Lookout and his crew of 6 fellow hikers endured, including some very close call water crosses, how slow and draining the snow travel was, what snow traction worked best for his group (and it might not be what you expect), the energy requirements for this style of trekking, and the group dynamics of traveling in such close proximity for such a long time through such stressful conditions. This one is a doozy. We wrap the show with a quick overview of how much experience is needed to hike the AT, things that get less appetizing as we get older, and a triple crown of the best places for people watching.

How much does collagen count toward your protein needs? It's an excellent question. There are  a couple things to keep in mind with protein. It's like a prescription med in that if you don't have enough of it, you don't get the benefit. You'd never take an Rx med just half now and half later if it is supposed to be taken 3x a day in the full dose.  Likewise with protein. If you don't get enough for the muscle protein synthesis, that is, the ability to boost an anabolic reaction in the muscle, you may support satiety and blood sugar stabilization but not preserve your lean muscle mass.  Second, all protein is not created equal. Animal protein per calorie has a far higher level of essential amino acids than does plant. All animal protein is not even the same.  And though collagen protein is animal, it's a lower level than plant. Not all collagen protein is a complete essential amino acid source. But even so, it can be deceptive if you're thinking, adding that scoop to your coffee covers your protein needs for morning.  So, let's unpack this in today's episode and a lesser known fact that a Protein Digestibility-corrected Amino Acid Score could also have an effect on your ability to use what you consume.  Are you in? The Stronger Program is open for enrollment!   Start Now: https://www.flippingfifty.com/getstronger More than 20 strains of collagen have been identified. These 5 are most common in those on the shelves you may be staring at literally or virtually.  Type I – present in bones and muscles Type II – cartilage and bones  Type III – blood vessels (and other “hollow” organs) Type VI – skin  Type V – prime protein in skeletal muscle and corneal stroma Type I represents 90% of total collagen content of the body. How Much Collagen for Best Results May Depend on This PDCAAS (Protein Digestibility-corrected Amino Acid Score), collagen protein lacks one indispensable amino acid (tryptophan) and is therefore categorized as an incomplete protein source. Collagen protein displays a low indispensable amino acid profile, yet as a functional food, collagen is a source of physiologically active peptides and conditionally indispensable amino acids that have the potential to optimize health and address physiological needs posed by aging and exercise.  “36% of collagen peptides can be used as protein substitution in the daily diet while ensuring indispensable amino acid requirements are met. This study suggests that the effective amounts of functional collagen peptides (2.5 to 15 g per day) observed in the literature are below the maximum level of collagen that may be incorporated in the standard American diet.” Numerous Studies on Collagen Have Shown:    ·      improvement in skin elasticity  ·      recovery of lost cartilage tissue  ·      reduced activity-related joint pain   ·      strengthened tendons and ligaments  ·      increased lean body mass in elderly men and premenopausal women  ·      increased bone mineral density in postmenopausal women “These studies have investigated supplementation with doses of 2.5 to 15 g of bioactive collagen peptides over periods of three to 18 months. The benefits are reportedly due to bioactive collagen peptides to upregulate the synthesis of extracellular matrix proteins in various tissues via a stimulatory cell effect while providing the specific amino acid building blocks for body collagens.” Ideally, the amino acid scores (AAS) of a protein or protein mixture should not exceed 1.0, i.e., fulfill 100% of the indispensable amino acid requirements while minimizing excess.  This is due to the fact that the body's metabolic needs include both indispensable and dispensable amino acids.  As a consequence, if one or more of the indispensable amino acids are present in excess of requirements, the diet becomes limited in dispensable amino acids, thus unbalanced, even though the PDCAAS remains equal to 1.0.  So, How Much Collagen Based on SAD A level as high as 36% of collagen peptides may be used as protein substitution while maintaining the indispensable amino acid balance and the high protein quality score of the standard American diet (PDCAAS equals to 1.0). The PDCAAS calculation of the daily protein mixture contained 36% collagen peptides and 64% mixed proteins from the standard American diet. More Collagen to Consider: Peptides vs Powders Considering the two, peptides are short strings of amino acids – two or three joined together – making them even easier to digest and absorb. For regeneration of connective tissue in joints, ligaments, bone and skin, or gut collagen peptides are what you want.  Without getting too much into “other” subjects here there are also creatine peptides that support muscle strength, recovery, short bursts of power and supports ATP (energy central).  References: https://www.mdpi.com/2306-5354/9/5/193 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6566836/ Resources: STRONGER 12-week program: https://www.flippingfifty.com/getstronger Other Episodes You Might Like:  What to know about CREATINE Supplementation Over 50: https://www.flippingfifty.com/?s=creatine Collagen or Protein Shakes for Lean Muscles After 50?: https://www.flippingfifty.com/?s=collagen Protein Supplements for Muscle Building: What, When & Why to Exercise for Women 40+: https://www.flippingfifty.com/?s=protein  

There are two types of fun: type I fun, where things feel good and fun in the moment and type II fun, where what you're doing may not be fun, and might even be an uncomfortable or unpleasant but you reminisce about it later and think about it fondly. While there is a time and place for both, learning to enjoy type II fun builds character and gives you rich memories that outlast the fleeting moments of type I. In this episode we discuss what type II fun looks like in the day to day and how it's important to balance your life with a little more of it.Jenny BlakeThis episode is brought to you by Jenny the Nutritionist.
