DID YOU KNOW that one of the reasons older adults suffer from sarcopenia, or loss of muscle mass, is pancreatic enzyme insufficiency?

As we age, we slowly lose the ability to produce sufficient enzymes in our small intestine to break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. This is called pancreatic enzyme insufficiency.

A recent study in Clinical Nutrition found that about 20% of older adults produce too little lipase to break down fats. After adding a pancreatic/digestive enzyme with lipase, the study subjects digested fats much better.

DID YOU KNOW that the state of Florida health department tested arsenic content in some of our most popular candies and found that it did not take much to exceed elevated levels?

They calculated how many pieces/servings it would take to exceed safe levels of arsenic. For example, they found that a child would only need to consume 6 pieces of Jolly Rancher Hard Candy Sour Apple in one year to exceed safe levels of arsenic. For adults, it would only take 15 pieces consumed in one year to exceed safe levels. Many kids and adults eat that many in one week.

If you want to peruse the list of candies screened for arsenic and how much it would take to exceed safe levels, please go to this page.
