Do you have loved ones or close friends that you want to or are having a hard time explaining to them the high carb consumption is making them fat science?
Here is a piece of it for you. You've got this!
De novo lipogenesis (DNL) is the metabolic process by which the body converts excess carbohydrates into fatty acids, which are then stored as fat in adipose tissue. The term "de novo" means "from new," indicating that this is the creation of fatty acids from non-fat sources, primarily carbohydrates
Here's how the process works:
Carbohydrate Breakdown: When you consume carbohydrates, they are broken down into glucose, which enters the bloodstream. The glucose is either used for energy or stored as glycogen in the liver & muscles
When glycogen stores are full & glucose intake exceeds the body's immediate energy needs, the liver converts excess glucose into acetyl-CoA, a molecule that acts as a building block for fatty acid synthesis
Acetyl-CoA is then converted into fatty acids through a series of enzymatic reactions. The key enzyme in this process is fatty acid synthase, which catalyzes the formation of long-chain fatty acids like palmitate
These fatty acids are combined with glycerol to form triglycerides, which are transported to adipose tissue (fat cells) stored for later use
DNL is most active in the liver but can also occur in other tissues like adipose tissue. While it's a natural metabolic process, excessive DNL, driven by high carbohydrate or sugar consumption, causes fat accumulation & leads to conditions like obesity, insulin resistance, & fatty liver disease

Watch Sam Feltham, Director of Public Health Collaboration, react to the Prime Minister's speech on the critical condition of the NHS.
DM us "PHC" to find out more about how we can help fix the nation's health.

How does our UK NHS practice help 143 of our patients with T2D achieve drug free remission? Cut the carbs, base meals on protein and turn the white stuff green. Instead of rice or potatoes green beans, cabbage or courgettes. Mostly it’s that simple Remember starchy carbs are sugar too 👍

In a new study published in the Journal of Nutrition, eating 1 or more eggs per week led to ~50% lower risk for Alzheimer’s disease among older adults.
Eggs are the top source of choline (after beef liver), which the researchers believe played a role in protecting brain health.

See for yourself why your LDL (aka "bad cholesterol") level is no better than a coin toss at predicting your risk for a stroke or heart attack. What's good for the brain is good for the heart, too! It wouldn't make sense to need a different diet for each organ we possess:)
Ketogenic diet: Good for the brain but bad for the heart? My colleagues @DrPaulMason @BenBikmanPhD and I addressed the issue of benefits of keto diet for mental health but concerns over diet-induced increases in LDL. Please download, read, share and integrate into a better way to approach high LDL concerns.

Fermented foods like yogurt, kefir, and sauerkraut are dietary staples for many cultures worldwide.
Now scientists understand better how eating these foods as part of a balanced diet may contribute to improving gut health:

🧠I was asked online if there is any evidence that animal foods are required for good mental health. For some people, clinical experience and individual anecdotes are not enough evidence.
🧐@GeorgiaEdeMD's talk here youtube.com/watch?v=TXlVfwJ6… is a great starting point for the evidence.

🚨Can you help us to further metabolic mental health science?!
🔬Next year in Oxford we will do the world's first human study on ketogenic diet in ADHD and depression
💊With a worldwide shortage of ADHD medication (bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-ma…), and up to ten year waiting times for diagnosis (itv.com/news/2023-10-16/itv-…), we need more solutions ASAP
📈We will crowdfund for the study this summer, and we need your help!
📢Who do you know in your network who can help to get the message out? I'm looking for podcasts to appear on, radio, TV, Instagram Live with influencers, you name it, to discuss the crowdfund and bring this science to life. If you can think of anyone, please let them know below, and share this to get the message out there.
🙏Thank you!

False equivalencies series...
#8 Diet Coke and Artificial Sweeteners ≠ Diet Coke Worse than Coke
Be an adult and consider the data for what they are and make an adult decision.
👉Literature shows artificial sweeteners can cause glucose intolerance in humans (Nature)
👉Literature shows aspartame at LOW doses (eq 2-4 diet cokes) can induce anxiety behavior in mice 🐁 than can be inherited by future generations (PNAS)... and if you wan to plat the "it's a mouse" card, that just means
(i) you don't understand the practical limitations of conducting research, since this would be impossible to perform in humans in a controlled manner, and...
(ii) do whatever you want because they are your sperm and offspring
refs in show notes
Again, I'm not telling you "should" or "must" but just be an adult and consider the data and how much you need Diet Coke vs just a glass of water
ALSO ... ASIDE ... THANK YOU
You broke my expectations!
I thought me rambling into an iPhone for 27 minutes about myths and misperceptions & false equivalencies would be among my WORST viewed videos, but in its first 2 days it has 16K views, >3,000 Watch Hours and trending up rather than plateauing ... I'm suspecting it will hit 50K views and 5000 watch hours as a solo video rather quickly, youtu.be/gxRLRYEQaEs
I'm impressed and appreciated there seems demand for what I felt was very "vanilla" middle, moderate and reasonable, not sensational tone (I certainly wasn't on a. rocket ship yelling about RCTs I don't cite 😉)
And thanks also to all the very kind words from @ZackStrength @astro_toaster @LowCarbEyeDoc @soonergise and many others recently ... means a lot 😍
Now, for the question... in 2024 so Far how many Diet Coke have you had? Give a # or
A) 0
B) <10
C) 10 - 50
D) >50
