“Tau helps stabilize the fibers, or axons, that nerve cells send out to communicate with their neighbors. > However, during trauma, large numbers of these proteins are shaken free from the axons to drift in the space between the brain's cells.”

“I understand that it would not be possible to make a placebo drink if the whole fruit was used...but I think it is better to consume the berries with the fiber which changes the way sugar is metabolized and also has benefits for the gut microbiome.”

“All five dietary patterns emphasize fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, which provide dietary fiber and antioxidant compounds that help reduce inflammation and support the gut microbiome. Fiber intake even showed the strongest link with a lower risk of death.”

“Instead, gut microbes may convert oat compounds into bioactive molecules that influence cholesterol metabolism alongside fiber fermentation. The participant groups were relatively small and the diet interventions could not be blinded.”

“00:23:16 - When people change from a high fiber to a high protein diet, their gut microbiome undergoes rapid and dramatic change. Study. 00:23:16 - “Putrefactive” bacteria in gut metabolize amino acids and are linked with increased risk of colon cancer.”

“However, control beverages containing fiber, minerals, or vitamins and minerals had no significant effect on flow-mediated dilation. Twice daily wild blueberry consumption for one month also increased long-term flow-mediated dilation.”

“They found that participants who ate the plant-based meat substitutes had higher fiber, sodium, and potassium intake than those who ate animal meat. Their blood lipids showed little improvement, but their diastolic blood pressure decreased, and their insulin sensitivity increased.”

“The average American gets more than half of their daily calories from ultra-processed foods such as soft drinks, chips, cookies, processed meats, and other convenience food items. These types of foods are often high in unhealthy fats and refined sugars and low in beneficial fiber.”

“In comparison, healthy participants' concentrations averaged 28.0 particles per gram. The various particles were in sheets, fibers, fragments, and pellets; most were smaller than 300 micrometers. Participants with higher fecal concentrations tended to have more severe IBD.”

“The researchers attributed these improvements in muscle endurance to naringenin’s capacity to increase the number of oxidative myofibers (muscle fibers that use oxygen) and improve the overall efficiency of aerobic metabolism in the body.”
