Welcome to our weekly Quanlim Life- Health information and news for Farmers and families.
South Africans, like everybody in the world, like to eat. As the world gets richer, our opportunities to eat more grow, and most of us are genetically programmed to respond — and some of us, at least, are too lax to override our genetic desires. The medical journal The Lancet published research in 2014 that studied the body mass index (BMI) of adults in 186 countries from 1975 to 2014. Obesity rates, defined as a BMI of over 30, had just about tripled. The only problem is that the Lancet study showed that the obesity rates in Mexico and Argentina were higher than in SA. The most-used vegetable oil is palm oil, which is found in a host of very different products: peanut butter, ramen, coffee creamer, makeup, body wash, toothpaste, laundry detergent, deodorant, candles, cat food and baby formula. The reason why it is a climate change problem is that it grows only close to the equator and slash-and-burn agriculture is reducing the natural forests. But this is very bad oil to use -
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, and it’s responsible for regulating blood sugar levels by transporting glucose (sugar) to the cells in the body. The cells then use glucose for energy, or store it for later use. Potassium is generally stored in the fluid inside of the cells, but when there’s too much glucose outside of the cells (blood sugar is too high), potassium moves outside of the cell, raising potassium levels in the blood. Insulin then comes to move glucose into the cell to restore potassium homeostasis, causing potassium levels to drop. When the body either doesn’t produce enough insulin, doesn’t use insulin properly or is insulin resistant, this causes a buildup of glucose in the bloodstream, since glucose isn’t able to enter the cells without insulin. People with low potassium levels will release less insulin, which causes higher blood sugar levels, and increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. When administering insulin, it’s crucial for healthcare providers to monitor potassium levels.

Autoimmune diseases affect over 24 million people in the United States, a concerning figure that emphasizes the need for prevention. A large-scale study suggests that omega-3 fatty acids, the core nutrients in fish oil supplements, may offer long lasting protection against the onset of these conditions. Our bodies don't produce omega-3s naturally, which makes diet and supplements vital sources. These fatty acids naturally curb inflammation, a key factor in autoimmune diseases where the body's defenses mistakenly attack healthy tissues. In the new study, over 20,000 participants were randomly assigned to receive either the supplement or a placebo. Remarkably, after the trial ended, those who had previously taken omega-3 supplements maintained a lowered risk of developing autoimmune diseases for an additional 2 years. This persistent protection was not observed with vitamin D, though its initial benefits looked promising. “Supplementation should be considered only with the addition of a high-nutrient-dense diet, good quality sleep, stress management, and limitation of sedentary behavior,” emphasizes registered dietitian Kristin Kirkpatrick. She also stressed the importance of choosing the right supplements for both safety and maximizing potential benefits. Don't start using unless you know if you need ti and what is wrong inside your body.
Bad Protein
Protein powders are powdered forms of protein that come from plants (soybeans, peas, rice, potatoes, or hemp), eggs, or milk (casein or whey protein). The powders may include other ingredients such as added sugars, artificial flavoring, thickeners, vitamins, and minerals. The amount of protein per scoop can vary from 10 to 30 grams. Supplements used for building muscle contain relatively more protein, and supplements used for weight loss contain relatively less.
What are the risks?
There are numerous risks to consider when using a protein powder. Among them:
- A protein powder is a dietary supplement. The FDA leaves it up to manufacturers to evaluate the safety and labeling of products. So, there's no way to know if a protein powder contains what manufacturers claim.
- We don't know the long-term effects. "There are limited data on the possible side effects of high protein intake from supplements," McManus says.
- It may cause digestive distress. "People with dairy allergies or trouble digesting lactose [milk sugar] can experience gastrointestinal discomfort if they use a milk-based protein powder," McManus points out.
- It may be high in added sugars and calories. Some protein powders have little added sugar, and others have a lot (as much as 23 grams per scoop). Some protein powders wind up turning a glass of milk into a drink with more than 1,200 calories. The risk: weight gain and an unhealthy spike in blood sugar. The American Heart Association recommends a limit of 24 grams of added sugar per day for women and 36 grams for men.
ALzeimer’s disease is an irreversible, progressive brain disease that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills, and eventually even the ability to carry out the simplest tasks. In most people with Alzheimer’s, symptoms first appear after age 60.
Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia among older people. Dementia is the loss of cognitive functioning—thinking, remembering, and reasoning—and behavioral abilities, to such an extent that it interferes with a person’s daily life and activities. Dementia ranges in severity from the mildest stage, when it is just beginning to affect a person’s functioning, to the most severe stage, when the person must depend completely on others for basic activities of daily living.
Scientists took blood samples from a group of currently diagnosed Alzheimer's disease patients and a control group of healthy volunteers. They then isolated the immune-stimulating component of the white blood cells called macrophages. These special cells are known to target and eliminate amyloid fibrils and other waste products that accumulate in the brain before they manifest into detectable disease conditions. The scientists found that Type I macrophage activity is greatly enhanced with optimal saturation of vitamin D3, and Type II immune cells are supported by the presence of curcumin. Researchers found that the action of both Type I and II macrophages are greatly enhanced by the synergistic application of vitamin D3 and curcumin together. They concluded "Our findings demonstrate that active forms of vitamin D3 and curcumin may be an important regulator of immune activities of macrophages in helping to clear amyloid plaques."

Although vitamin C is best known for supporting the immune system, it also helps to heal wounds and repair bones. While it works in conjunction with other supplements, such as iron and zinc — the opposite is true with vitamin B12. High doses of vitamin C actually impedes the absorption of B12. Since B12 is needed for red blood cell formation, nerve function, cell metabolism, and the repair of body tissues, you don’t want to diminish the maximum potential benefit by diminishing its effectiveness. You need to know your Methylation status.
