Introduction
In order to supply energy for regular bodily processes, glucose is necessary. Blood glucose levels rise in diabetics as a result of a relative or total insulin shortage. One hormone is insulin. A hormone is a substance that our bodies' glands secrete. The pancreas is the name for this gland, which is located in the abdomen. Insulin functions as a gatekeeper, permitting glucose to enter the cell. If the body produces too much insulin or if insulin's function is compromised, too much glucose builds up and damages the cells in different organs. Diabetes is a metabolic disease in which the body cannot utilize glucose to meet its energy needs. Insulin is necessary for the entry of glucose into cells, as we have already mentioned. For this reason, when cells cannot use glucose to the fullest extent, the body attempts to generate extra glucose through a process known as glycogenesis. Here's how blood sugar levels continue to rise in the absence of food. Diabetes occurs mostly in two forms. The initial kind, or insulin-dependent diabetes. Only insulin, the primary medication, is effective in treating it. Younger patient age groups frequently experience this. Type II diabetes is the second kind, which is not insulin-dependent. In India, this is a growing trend. People older than 40 are typically affected by this. Exercise, nutrition, and oral medicines can all be used to manage this group.

If uncontrolled diabetes is not caught early enough, it can have harmful effects on all areas of the body. The illness needs to be properly treated even if a person does not now experience its effects. Neglect and complacency are never safe. Keep in mind that maintaining good control over the disease is essential to living a normal life. One of the main risk factors for developing complications from diabetes later in life is poorly managed diabetes. The chart below illustrates a few of these concerns for complications. This isn't meant to frighten you; rather, it's only meant to highlight how crucial it is to manage diabetes.
Diabetes food pyramid
Two of the most crucial things you can do to improve your health are to eat a healthy diet and get regular exercise. You can accomplish this by using the Food pyramid guide, the Physical Activity Guidelines, and the Healthy Eating Guidelines. Eating a healthy diet entails consuming the right proportions of the vitamins, minerals, fats, proteins, and carbs that your body needs to stay healthy. On each shelf of the Food Pyramid, foods that are similar in terms of nutrients are placed together. This provides you with a variety of food options from which to select a nutritious diet. Getting the correct balance of nutrient-dense foods within your calorie range can be achieved by using the Food Pyramid as a guide.
Research indicates that we consume an excessive amount of calories from foods and beverages on the Top Shelf of the Food Pyramid that are high in fat, sugar, and salt. They barely contain any of the vital vitamins and minerals that your body needs. Restricting them is necessary for a healthy diet. You need different nutrients every day depending on where you are in life. These are determined by your age, gender, level of activity, and gender.
Understanding food pyramid
•Restrict your intake of items from the Food Pyramid's top shelf. Considering that these are heavy in fat, sugar, and salt, this is the most crucial Healthy Eating Guideline.
•Use fresh ingredients when preparing and cooking your meals. Because they are often heavy in fat and salt, ready meals and takeout should not be consumed frequently.
•Consistently read the nutrition label; look for excessive amounts of sugar, fat, and salt.
•Consume at least five different colored fruits and veggies each day. Make regular choices of leafy green vegetables. Smoothies can be included in your daily servings of fruits and vegetables, but try to limit your intake to those that contain fruit or vegetables. Look for fat and sugar on the label.
•The greatest foods to feed your body include whole grain bread, potatoes, whole-wheat pasta, brown rice, and high-fiber cereals, especially porridge. These foods also satiate hunger. They offer a gradual release of energy. Recognize that different varieties may have different amounts of calories.
•Instead of frying food, use healthy cooking techniques including steaming, grilling, baking, roasting, and stir-frying. Limit your consumption of fried items like chips.
•Increase your fish intake; it's high in protein and contains essential vitamins and minerals. Make an effort to consume oily fish, such as salmon, sardines, and mackerel,
at least once a week. They contain a lot of omega-3 lipids. Reduced-fat cheese, low-fat/no-sugar yogurts, and yogurt drinks are the better options.
•While preparing or serving meals, use as little or no salt as feasible. Instead, experiment with different flavorings including lemon juice, herbs, spices, pepper, and garlic. Eat as much fresh food as you can. Check the food labels for the amount of salt.
•An adult needs eight to ten glasses or cups of liquid every day. 200 ml is roughly one cup. If you exercise, you will require more. Teens and children should drink often throughout the day. The ideal fluid is water.
•Make time to sit down at a table and eat three meals a day. Eat mindfully and give your food a good chew. You may overeat if you eat while watching TV or using a computer since it can cause you to become distracted by how much food you are consuming. Alcohol contains calories, so if you drink, do it responsibly within advised limits and ideally with meals.
•Always make time for breakfast, as those who eat it are more likely to maintain a healthy weight.
•You shouldn't need to take food supplements if you consume a healthy, balanced diet unless your doctor tells you to. Nonetheless, it is recommended that all sexually active women of reproductive age take 400µg of folic acid daily, ideally as a supplement. Vitamin D deficiency in the diet can be addressed by discussing supplementation with your physician or pharmacist.
•Eating a healthy diet both before and throughout pregnancy lowers the chance that your unborn child may develop lifestyle disorders like obesity and heart disease. Breastfeeding is highly advised since breast milk provides additional protection.
•Take into account how much food, excluding fruits and vegetables, you eat from each shelf of the Food Pyramid if you are overweight.
Conclusion
A diabetic diet's ingredients differ from person to person. A balanced diet is an excellent way to treat diabetes. Making a nutritious diet is made easier with the guidance of the diabetes food pyramid. Diabetes can be beaten with a balanced diet, appropriate medication, and a healthy lifestyle.

2024.05.17 08:16 a4fertility What should couples know before undergoing fertility treatments like IVF or ICSI?

Deciding to pursue fertility treatments like in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a significant step for couples struggling with infertility. While these treatments offer hope for parenthood, it's crucial to be well-informed and prepared before embarking on this journey. This blog post aims to shed light on the essential aspects couples should consider before undergoing IVF or ICSI.
Understanding IVF and ICSI
IVF is a complex series of procedures involving extracting eggs from the female's ovaries, fertilizing them with sperm in a laboratory, and then transferring the resulting embryos into the uterus. ICSI, a specialized form of IVF, involves injecting a single sperm directly into an egg to achieve fertilization. Both IVF and ICSI are assisted reproductive technologies (ART) aimed at addressing various fertility challenges.
Assessing Your Fertility Situation
Before opting for fertility treatments, it's essential to have a thorough evaluation of both male fertility and female fertility. This typically involves a comprehensive medical history review, physical examinations, and diagnostic tests to identify any underlying causes of infertility. Common factors affecting female fertility include ovulation disorders, fallopian tube blockages, endometriosis, and uterine fibroids. Male fertility issues may include low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or abnormal sperm morphology.
Emotional and psychological preparation
Fertility treatments can be emotionally taxing, with a rollercoaster of hope, anxiety, and disappointment. It's crucial for couples to acknowledge and address these emotional challenges together. Consider seeking counseling or joining support groups to connect with others experiencing similar journeys. Open communication and mutual support are key to navigating the emotional aspects of fertility treatment.
Financial Considerations
IVF and ICSI can be expensive, with costs varying depending on the clinic, location, and specific treatment plan. Before starting treatment, research the financial aspects, including medication costs, consultation fees, and laboratory charges. Inquire about potential insurance coverage and explore financing options if needed. Understanding the financial implications upfront helps avoid unexpected expenses and allows for better planning.
Treatment Success Rates and Expectations
IVF and ICSI success rates vary depending on several factors, including age, cause of infertility, and overall health. It's essential to have realistic expectations and understand that multiple treatment cycles may be required to achieve a successful pregnancy. Your fertility specialist can provide personalized information on success rates based on your specific circumstances.
Legal and ethical considerations
Fertility treatment involves complex legal and ethical considerations, especially when using donor sperm, donor eggs, or gestational carriers. Understand the legal implications and ensure you have a clear agreement with all parties involved. Discuss ethical concerns, such as genetic testing of embryos and the potential for multiple pregnancies, with your fertility specialist and make informed decisions based on your values and beliefs.
Lifestyle and health factors
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial during fertility treatment. Follow your doctor's recommendations regarding diet, exercise, and stress management. Avoid smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and recreational drug use, as these can negatively impact fertility and treatment outcomes. Optimize your overall health to enhance your chances of success.
Choosing a Fertility Clinic and Specialist
Selecting the right fertility clinic and specialist is paramount. Research clinics thoroughly, considering their experience, success rates, and patient reviews. Look for a clinic that offers a comprehensive range of services, including diagnostic tests, treatment options, and emotional support. Establish a good rapport with your fertility specialist, ensuring open communication and trust throughout the treatment process.
Alternative options and complementary therapies
While IVF and ICSI are effective treatments for many couples, exploring alternative options and complementary therapies may be beneficial. Acupuncture, yoga, and herbal supplements are some complementary approaches that may support fertility and reduce stress. Discuss these options with your fertility specialist to determine their suitability for your situation.
Conclusion
Embarking on fertility treatment is a significant decision that requires careful consideration and preparation. Understanding the different aspects discussed in this blog post empowers couples to make informed choices and navigate the complexities of IVF or ICSI. Remember, seeking support from fertility specialists, counselors, and support groups can enhance your journey towards parenthood. With knowledge, preparation, and perseverance, many couples can overcome infertility challenges and achieve their dream of having a family.

2024.05.17 07:00 ZelWinters1981 I'm concerned

Hi all, 42 year old Aussie bloke here.
Right off the bat that puts me right in the middle of the image of the typical Aussie fellow having a drink after work. While it isn't every night, that is mostly true.
A bit of backstory:
I grew up in the country to parents who were pensioners, but somehow the step-father always had beer on hand. I wouldn't say that he drank a lot, but it was always there. Maybe there was more happening behind the scenes I was unaware of due to being at school, and later, work where I couldn't see what was going on. He was a heavy smoker though.
My mum and dad split when I was 7 before all this. My dad and his dad also like a drink, but they don't drink anywhere near what I have grown accustomed to consuming. For what it's worth, my mother died just after her 40th from other health issues, my step-father at 67 due to cancer because of smoking, and my dad and his folks are still alive at 64 and around 90, respectively. The amount they would consume I would probably consider a much healthier amount than I would use.
To the recent past, I've drank all my adult life. When I was in steady equal relationships (this is a reference to my last and current relationships in comparison. I may ad more to this if people in the comments want to know more), my consumption wasn't too bad. I became single again and was just having fun with nothing and nobody to reign me in, so I began to drink. A lot.
I became close to my now most recent ex, and that grew into a power exchange dynamic where I held the control. I want to add this was completely safe, sane and consensual. But this had the ramifications of not being kept in check, so I would drink more. And more.
Late 2017 I couldn't eat without wanting to vomit, So by the time Late October came around I decided to forfeit all forms of alcohol for the entire month of November. I did it, but it wasn't easy. The heartburn and other stomach related impacts went away, but at a cost of brain fog, weariness, confusion - at least for the first two weeks or so. I went out to a club in a meet and I prided myself on not consuming alcohol, even though i wanted it. I drank Coke. I found it hard to fit in and have fun, so eventually grabbed a few Keno tickets and a pencil and wrote "cock" and "boobs" on them. Well eventually I was laughing so hard because the whole table got in on the thing and had fun with them.
I rewarded myself on the weekend following the beginning of December by going out on the town. I don't recall how I got home. Rumour has it I only had about eight drinks. I don't know.
I lost my gallbladder in Feb 2020. it may be related but it was also genetic. I was also eating a lot of shit food in the years leading up to it, so I don't know.
About two months ago the signs were returning, but not as fierce. I would randomly get heartburn even if I wasn't eating so I decided maybe I need to do something about it.
About a month ago I decided I would go two weeks without, and see how I felt. I didn't exactly go without, but I switched out heavy beers for very low alcohol beers which were 0,1 standard drinks each. The whole case amounted to 2.4 drinks and there was no way I could sit and smash them all in any one sitting. This worked.
But life is stressful, and I stress drink. I fell off the wagon again after two weeks. In the last three weeks I've had a bottle of whiskey, and around 100 cans of beer.
Compared to some people that may not seem like a lot, but for me and my health, it is a lot.
I like to drink. I don't drink to get intoxicated, maybe a small buzz? But I drink, a lot. My tolerance is high and that means my body is attuned to processing it more often than not.
I look back at the pattern and I see that it's easy to give something up for a period of time when you know you can be rewarded with the next hit at some point at the end of the time period.
I don't crave it, at least I don't recognise it as a craving, but more a habit, a ritual, a reward. I stress drink. I drink to relax, I drink to celebrate. I drink to motivate.
Right now it's a cool, cloudy Friday afternoon in Brisbane QLD. I'm very tempted to crack a can and mow the back yard, but that's exactly the problem: temptation. I could remove temptation, but that won't stop me from buying any so I have access to it.
I don't wanna go down the path of contacting all the suppliers and self-banning it, because I'd simply find another way. I asked my lady to tell me to put a can away if I got one out tonight, and she said "no, this is a you thing, it's your willpower alone that can stop you". She's got a point.
As I said I like to drink, so at the time of writing, I won't be going completely sober. So travel along with me as I begin my journey back into sensible drinking habits!
I see everyone here doing well, and I applaud your efforts!

2024.05.17 06:37 roshomon420 wrong battles

The government and executives are fighting the wrong battles for 0 drug tolerance. They are catching pot dealers, where they are just a small cell in the whole being called drug cartels. If there is no consumers, they are bound to go down.
Majority of people in India who uses cannabis, do it for recreation. They go to the dealer and the dealer pushes something else for them to try. Weed is a gateway drug because people have to get it from dealers who have dangerous substances up to cross sell. People who use alcohol, tobacco and weed. Would prefer weed as it's a safer option comparatively and legalising it would reduce regulated consumption, significant reduce in customers for dealers hence cutting down the demand for list A drugs.

2024.05.17 03:52 Turbulent_Pause6428 Worcester BOH Calls For Increasing State Alcohol Tax

Worcester BOH voted Monday unanimously in favor of increasing the states excise tax on alcohol. They state it has become a "public health challenge" with alcohol killing more people than opiods every year. The vote "sends a message to lawmakers" that they need to increase the tax as a way to combat "dangerous drinking connected to thousands of deaths in Mass". In 2019, there were 3101 alcohol-attributed deaths (5.15% of all deaths statewide). In 2022, it exceeded opiod related deaths for that year (2331). When accounting for unconfirmed deaths, it comes in at 2359. Apparently what the state makes in tax revenue off sales doesn't cover governmental bodies alcohol-related expenses. "The average per person cost of alcohol problems in 2010 (the last year data is available) was $861, amounting to a total cost of $5.6 billion annually statewide. Less than half of that yearly total was paid out by governments in Massachusetts due to budget constraints. The payments for lost productivity, property damage, health care, criminal justice and other costs connected to alcohol consumption averaged $345 per person or $2.2 billion annually. Meanwhile, the average per person revenue from alcohol excise taxes was $11 in 2020". Increasing alcohol tax is an effective way to dump more money into "government's coffers". Maryland was used as an example, which stated they had a positive result from an increase in their alcohol tax. They raised it by 3% in 2020 and raised almost $90 million in revenue. They put some of the extra money raised towards health care programs. They also claim an 11% decrease in alcohol consumption between 2011-2016. Mass "checks most boxes across the board" for lowest alcohol taxes for New England. Taxes were last raised in 1980 in MA, and they estimate it's lost 75% of it's value by not adjusting for inflation every year. As an example, beverages of over 30 proof are at $4.05/gallon whereas adjusted for inflation it should be $16.26/gallon. BOH Vice Chairwoman was hesitant and questioned what impact a vote would have. She said the state faces two certain challenges to this issue. One was Baker making liquor stores essential services during COVID, which she believes caused residents to use alcohol to numb their fear and contributed to addictions. Second was the large community of colleges and universities where drinking is a part of the culture. When she was asked if lawmakers will vote on it, she said "it's facing an uphill battle". She cited stores that sell liquor will likely not be in favor, as they will see a cut in their revenue. Also that some lawmakers may not be in favor as that means less sales which equal less revenue. The Mass Package Stores Association executive director said all that will accomplish is sending more people over state lines to NH (tax-free) or RI to buy their alcohol products or enticing people to illegally order online. A senator (Michael Moore) sits on the states Joint Committee on Revenue and said given how expensive everything is right now, now is not the time to raise the taxes. He believes people in Worcester will drive over state lines to RI and make their purchases which hurts the state as it is and also fears people will consume alcohol over state lines and travel back which could create a public health hazard. He believes education is the way to go. "At what point does the government or the individual have the role to monitor themselves?" In 2011, bills were sent through for an increase in tax and died. BOH also voted unanimously in favor to hold a meeting with lawmakers who's jurisdiction includes Worcester to try and lobby support for increasing alcohol excise tax. They also voted unanimously in favor to hold a meeting with the city's License Commission, which regulates Worcester's alcohol licenses. Currently the city has 293, with 231 on-premises and 62 off-premises and does not limit the number of licenses issued. The city's License Commission chairman says now is not the time to raise taxes either, as most restaurants and bars are struggling to stay open. In March, License Commission allowed bars and restaurants to offer full liquor bottle service for events, whereas previously it was only wine or beer (liquor was restricted since 2018).

2024.05.17 03:51 CategoryPale4755 Why do energy drinks suddenly work on me?

Background: 27F w/ ADHD. My whole life until now, energy drinks and coffee have never given me energy. I don't regularly consumed energy drinks, but would occasionally go for it just cause or in the hopes of getting energy. But it's usually the opposite, makes me sleepy!
Now, seemingly out of nowhere, the past couple months I have been very sensitive to caffeine (energy drinks in particular). Coffee is still no affect but I have been getting mega energy boosts and mental clarity from Celcius and Starbucks Double Shot energy drinks.
Have not changed anything about my diet, exercise routine, alcohol consumption, life style, etc.
Is there any correlation with hormones or to ADHD? Is there some other ingredient in these drinks in particular that somehow affects the brain differently than others??
Thanks!

2024.05.17 02:59 joker3015 How much can binge drinking damage your body / brain?

Hey everyone,
I have a question regarding binge drinkings effect on health vs the everyday drinking that most people associate with alcoholism. I’m 24, and have been drinking since I was 16 or so. Up until college it was only two or 3 times a month on the weekends probably, if that. However, once I got to college I joined a fraternity and alcohol consumption went way up. I was binge drinking 10+ drinks probably 5-6 nights a week the first 2 years of college. Once I turned 21 I started to get pretty rough hangovers and dialed it back a bit, but still binging probably from Wednesday - Saturday with maybe one off day somewhere in there. I have continued binging on the weekends since college, so I have been drinking roughly 7-8 years. I also blackout all of the time, and pretty much always have. Once I start drinking, I won’t stop until the bars close, I run out, or pass out. It has been seeming like I blackout much more frequently now than I did in college, even with less drinks for some reason. Pretty much every binge I blackout or get to the point where I can’t control my words/actions, and this has been the case since high school, it just didn’t seem like a problem then because everyone else was doing it and I didn’t have any responsibilities.
Towards the end of college I noticed I started to feel pretty shitty during the week, definitely not like my normal self. I had never had anxiety, but found myself feeling sort of always on edge, or in a mini fight or flight a lot just going about my normal day. Definitely is a physical feeling as well as a mental one. Add to that pretty tired and fatigued, derealization/depersonalization, definitly less verbal acuity and worse memory. Overall, I noticed I just wasn’t feeling like myself. Ended up getting tested for just about everything, sleep apnea, vitamin deficiencies, hormones, gut issues, food intolerance etc and was pretty much perfect in everything. Honestly at this point I have either tried or tested everything at this point short of going on meds (which I would prefer not to do for personal reasons).
I quit drinking for 5 months last year and while it was nice being hungover and able to make some good progress in the gym, I didn’t feel better. That is what led me to start drinking again, pretty much thinking if I don’t feel better sober I might as well be drinking. However, from everything I’ve seen on here I think I just didn’t give it enough time.
As of now I haven’t drank in about 3 weeks and intend on not drinking for the foreseeable future to see if not drinking can resolve some of these issues. Was anyone else here primarily a weekend binge drinker and find your self in a similar situation with these symptoms, and did quitting drinking help alleviate this? And if so, how long did it take? I’ve read about people taking a year or two to get back to normal, but I thought for some reason if I wasn’t better after 5 months I wouldn’t be after a year or two. Now typing it all out I see I was drinking quite a lot for quite a few years. Would love to hear from you guys and thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me.

2024.05.16 22:33 bigbaconbelly004 Emerging Research: Alcohol and Heart Disease

Alcohol – it's a fixture in many social gatherings, a part of celebrations, and often a means to unwind after a long day. Yet, emerging research is shedding new light on its intricate relationship with heart health, particularly among women. A recent study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology has uncovered intriguing findings that demand attention.
Historically, the impact of alcohol on heart health has been a subject of debate. While moderate alcohol consumption has been linked to potential cardiovascular benefits, excessive intake can lead to detrimental effects. However, the nuances of this relationship, especially concerning gender-specific differences, have been less explored until now.
According to the study, led by Dr. John Smith from the American College of Cardiology, alcohol consumption, even in moderate amounts, poses a greater risk for heart disease among women compared to men. This finding challenges the conventional wisdom that moderate drinking may confer cardiovascular advantages equally across genders.
The research suggests that women who consume alcohol regularly, even at moderate levels, may face a heightened risk of developing heart disease. Factors such as body composition, metabolism, and hormonal differences between men and women could contribute to this contrasting impact of alcohol on heart health.
But what does this mean for the average person with a glass of wine or a beer in hand? It's important to recognize that moderation is key. While the study highlights potential risks associated with alcohol consumption, it doesn't advocate for complete abstinence. Instead, it emphasizes the importance of mindful drinking habits, especially among women.
For those who enjoy a drink, being aware of personal limits and understanding individual health factors is crucial. Regular check-ins with healthcare providers can help assess and manage any potential risks associated with alcohol consumption. Moreover, incorporating healthy lifestyle choices such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can further support heart health.
This research underscores the dynamic nature of scientific inquiry. As our understanding of health and wellness evolves, so too must our behaviors and choices. The findings serve as a reminder that no aspect of our lifestyle exists in isolation – everything from diet and exercise to social habits can influence our well-being.
While the link between alcohol and heart health may seem complex, the message is clear: moderation and awareness are paramount. By staying informed and making conscious choices, we can navigate the intricacies of our health journey with greater clarity and confidence. Let's raise a glass to heart health, with mindfulness and moderation as our guides.

2024.05.16 20:18 smirse Celiac disease, wheat allergy, gluten sensitivity: what are the differences according to a gastroenterologist?

Wheat is the basis of our diet. World Celiac Day, May 16, is an opportunity to take stock of its involvement in several pathologies. Wheat allergy, gluten sensitivity or intolerance, how to navigate it? A gastroenterologist helps us see things more clearly.

Celiac disease (gluten intolerance)

Its causes
This autoimmune disease specifically linked to gluten (notably gliadin ) occurs in a genetically predisposed area . We also talk about gluten intolerance.

Its symptoms

Celiac disease can begin at any age, including in the elderly (20% of people affected are over 60 years old) and affects women more frequently than men.
The diagnostic assessment is less and less often carried out (less than 20% of cases) in the face of classic manifestations: weight loss, bloating, diarrhea, deficiencies, etc. It is most often carried out in the face of non-specific digestive symptoms, symptoms extra digestive (sterility, alopecia, early or severe osteoporosis, recurrent mouth ulcers), or even biological abnormalities (iron deficiency anemia, liver problems, etc.).

The treatment

Strict exclusion of gluten (wheat, spelled, wheat, kamut, rye, barley) for life.
Oatsare tolerated if they are certified gluten-free .

Wheat allergyWheat allergy

Its causesIts causes
Different proteins contained in wheat can cause an allergy: albumins, globulins and gliadins and glutenins (gluten proteins).
Its symptomsIts symptoms
In infants, it can manifest in a chronic form, such as enteropathy, with symptoms similar to those of celiac disease: weight loss, abdominal pain, bloating. ..
In children, various symptoms occur within 2 to 4 hours after ingestion, often within the first year of life. They are similar to those of a classic food allergy : burning and itching in the mouth, rhinoconjunctivitis, eczema, skin rashes, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and even in severe forms anaphylactic shock.
In adolescents and adults, wheat allergy generally takes a particular form which results in symptoms which only appear when the ingestion of wheat is associated with rather intense physical effort, or after taking alcohol or anti-inflammatories. They are varied: digestive disorders, generalized urticaria, difficulty breathing, even anaphylactic shock.
The treatmentThe treatment
In children: elimination of wheat, rye, barley and oats. After the age of 16, 96% of adolescents become tolerant and recover.
In the case of exercise-related allergy: no consumption of wheat in the 4 to 5 hours before or after significant physical exercise.

Non-celiac wheat sensitivity (gluten sensitivity)Non-celiac wheat sensitivity (gluten sensitivity)

Its causesIts causes
It has no clearly defined basis at the moment. The following are implicated: gluten, ATIs (amylase/trypsin inhibitors) and fructans (which are fermentable carbohydrates falling into the category of FODMAPs.
The diagnosis is only made after elimination of wheat allergy and celiac disease.

The treatmentThe treatment
After the elimination of celiac disease and wheat allergy (essential condition), start with a strict gluten-free diet (wheat, rye, barley, oats) for 6 weeks, to confirm the diagnosis in case of disappearance of symptoms.
Then, reintroduction, starting with foods containing traces of gluten and, depending on tolerance, with very gradually increasing quantities, each person having to find their tolerance threshold.

2024.05.16 20:11 Emergency-Bag3326 AITAH for wanting to call the cops on my friend?

I have this friend (in his 40s) that loves to get a bit rowdy when he goes out. He lives far from town (30+ minutes). Even if he’s clearly not in a state to drive (alcohol and drug), there is not talking him to stop/slow his consumption or even stay with one of us in the city instead of taking his car and drive back home.
Us friends have talked often about calling the cops on him because what if he causes an accident, that would be unpardonable, for both him and us, or gets hurt or worst.
But at the same time, do we want to be the ones to have him arrested and get a criminal record? Its always a dilemma in our heads.
I feel both possibilities, either something happens because we didn’t do anything or he gets into trouble because we did do something, there will be consequences.
I’m leaning towards calling, WIBTAH?

2024.05.16 12:58 GroundbreakingAd7105 Methods to deal with sugar addiction

I’ve tried and failed throughout the years to quit sweets (candy), chocolate etc. But now I really want to tackle my addiction as I am on a journey to address all of my vices. I spend hundreds on sweets every month. I will buy multiple packs at a time, eat them all and go back for more. I have triggers such as stress, alcohol, tiredness and hunger, which make me more prone to buying and consuming sweets (candy).
I have a visceral bodily reaction during the consumption of them if I haven’t had them for a while. Like a relaxation in my brain. And also regularly have cravings for sweets in general or a specific snack.
It’s something everyone around me is aware of. I’m in good physical shape, run and lift weights regularly but would like to help my teeth and my wallet, especially in this cost of living crisis. Any tips?
I’ve tried fully stopping. Sugar free sweets just don’t do it for me, it’s doesn’t give me that feeling so actually just makes me want sweets more.

2024.05.16 12:03 tung0310 Why You Should Include Liver in Your Diet

Liver is one of the most nutrient-dense foods available, offering a plethora of benefits that may surprise you. This organ meat is packed with highly bioavailable nutrients including vitamins A, D, B1, B2, B3, B5, choline, iron, zinc, selenium, phosphorus, and methionine, a compound that we will discuss in more detail later.
Is Liver Toxic? While the liver helps detoxify the body, it doesn't retain the toxins. It's advisable to consume liver from grass-fed animals and not to eat it too frequently to avoid vitamin A toxicity. Studies suggest that liver should be consumed within safe limits rather than in excessive amounts.
Why Should You Eat Liver? The human body today has deficiencies or mutations in the MTHFR gene, a crucial gene that can reduce methylation activity. Methylation is the process of adding a methyl group (CH3) to various enzymes, and this function is essential for numerous critical roles. Deficiencies can lead to:
Low Testosterone Levels. Compromised Autoimmune Defense. Reduced Defense Against Adverse Reactions Post-Vaccination.
Methylation Depends on Two Key Nutrients: + Folate and B12: Even if you consume these nutrients from natural foods, they won't be converted into their active forms without the enzymes produced through methylation. Taking synthetic forms of these vitamins (like folic acid and cyanocobalamin) can worsen the condition. Instead, consume natural forms like folate and methylcobalamin. + Eating Liver as a Solution for Folate and B12
Deficiency: Liver is incredibly rich in these vitamins, along with B2, B3, B6, choline, vitamin D, zinc, and methionine, which are beneficial for the methylation process. If you're not a fan of eating liver, consider taking supplements that contain vitamin B12 and folate.
Solutions:
Including liver in your diet, even in moderate amounts, can significantly enhance your nutrient intake and support crucial bodily functions, particularly those related to methylation and detoxification. It's a powerful, natural way to boost your health with essential vitamins and minerals.
