Things Worth Noting
Surviving 100 hours without food is a challenging fast that tests physical and mental resilience. In the first 12 hours, the body uses glycogen stores for energy, then shifts to ketosis, burning fat for fuel by 12-36 hours. By 36-72 hours, autophagy may enhance cellular health, but risks like nutrient deficiency and dehydration grow. After […]
Molecular hydrogen tablets dissolve in water to create hydrogen-rich water, delivering powerful health benefits. These tablets release hydrogen gas, a selective antioxidant that fights harmful free radicals, reduces oxidative stress, and eases inflammation. They support cellular health, boost energy, and aid muscle recovery, making them popular among athletes. Research shows they may improve heart health, […]
Ghrelin and leptin regulate hunger and fullness, but many factors disrupt their balance, impacting appetite and weight. Poor diets high in processed foods, sugar, and trans fats spike ghrelin and cause leptin resistance, driving overeating. Low protein or fiber intake fails to curb hunger, while irregular meals destabilize hormones. Sleep deprivation boosts ghrelin and lowers […]
Intermittent fasting (IF) is a popular approach for weight loss, wellness, and potentially longevity, cycling between eating and fasting periods. Methods like the 16:8 (16-hour fast, 8-hour eating window), alternate-day fasting, and the 5:2 diet align with the body’s natural rhythms. Fasting triggers ketosis, burning fat after 12–14 hours, improving insulin sensitivity and reducing oxidative […]
When it comes to nutrition, it’s not just about what you eat or pop as a supplement—it’s about what your body can actually use. That’s where bioavailability comes into play. Bioavailability is the measure of how much of a nutrient, vitamin, mineral, or bioactive compound gets absorbed and utilized in your system. Picture this: you […]
There is some evidence to suggest that warm water may be better for digestion than cold water because it can help to relax the muscles in the digestive tract and increase blood flow to the digestive system. However, the temperature of the water is not the only factor that affects digestion, and individual preferences and […]
