DID YOU KNOW if you have an overgrowth of yeast, it is something that warrants your immediate attention?

The fungus Candida albicans, which can proliferate when we consume too many foods and beverages with yeast, produces enzymes that break down the blood-brain barrier and produce toxic amyloid beta-like peptides, according to the journal Cell Reports. These peptides activate microglial brain cells, helping in partially controlling the fungal infection. The problem is the amyloid peptides are associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

We have worked with clients with yeast overgrowth for decades. We also have the Candida Action Plan at our shopsite if you are interested in self-help information.

DID YOU KNOW that two new studies laud the benefits of organic, grass-fed whey protein powder?

One study from The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition examined serving whey protein before a meal in order to lower blood glucose levels. This is known as a "premeal". Researchers found whey protein premeals lowered post-meal blood glucose, reduced gastric emptying rate, increased peak insulin, and elevated plasma concentrations of GLP-1 (which is what Ozempic's function is).

Another study from Current Developments in Nutrition found evidence that whey protein supplementation may improve multiple clinical indicators of glucose control, along with triglycerides and blood pressure, in groups of adults at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

DID YOU KNOW why one of our wellness tenets is to never eat a carbohydrate alone?

Yet another study, this from The Journal of Nutrition, found that in people without diabetes, adding protein to a carbohydrate-containing meal elicits physiologically significant reductions in glucose. Adding protein also improved glucose reductions in those with type 2 diabetes.

Not only does having protein or healthy fat with carbohydrates slow down the absorption of glucose, it also brings on satiety faster.
