Over last 20years, people are not eating more, nor exercising less but still becoming #obese finds this recent study. In below thread, i explain key mechanism of #obesity postulated in this paper & what you can do to break this cycle. #HealthyLiving #gutmicrobiome #MedTwitter Image
First let me share the full paper before i summarize the key points from same: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35460220/
#Obesity prevalence among US adults has soared from 14% to 42% since 1980, but mean calorie intake has not changed much in population. In fact, people are eating less relative to their body sizes. This finding was confirmed in paper using multiple databases

The Effect of #Glyphosate on the #Gutmicrobiome and Neurocognitive Function
sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
1/5 Glyphosate is the active ingredient in the herbicide #RoundUp. In 1996 #geneticallymodified soybeans that could tolerate Round Up were introduced. At that time, Round Up made up just 3.8% of herbicides in use. By 2007 glyphosate use was more than double the next herbicide.
2/5 Glyphosate blocks an enzyme used by plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae, including beneficial bacteria in our #gut. Pathogenic bacteria Clostridia and Salmonella are not affected by glyphosate, allowing them to survive.

I'm absolutely delighted to share my newest review on how the #GutMicrobiota influences adult hippocampal #Neurogenesis! @jfcryan @oliviafoleary @Pharmabiotic @BPL_Journal

Our figure👇 shows key pathways by which #GutMicrobiota is known to influence AHN.

@jfcryan @oliviafoleary @Pharmabiotic @BPL_Journal 2/5 #Neurogenesis (the birth, development, integration, and survival of neurons) in the #hippocampus regulates learning, memory, and mood, but is disrupted by lifestyle factors & diseases, including unhealthy diet, #aging, #stress, #AlzheimerDisease & in 🐭models of #Depression
3/5 (It is hard to measure hippocampal neurogenesis in human tissue, so most of our evidence relies on preclinical studies, along with mixed evidence in post-mortem tissue.

Below's figure outlines some common techniques for measuring neurogenesis)

Good morning! Starting day 2 with another of my favorite #nutrition topics: the food matrix. What does that mean for #health? Food is not simply the sum of its parts. 🤓
#Nutrition2022 #NutritionLiveOnline Image
First up, one of my colleagues in nutrition and the #gut #microbiome, @HolscherLab. Let's #science!

The Gut #Microbiome is implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory arthritides & other health conditions

Gut dysbiosis is a broad term relating to an 'imbalance' of gut microbiota associated with an unhealthy outcome

I find this an interesting topic with several unknowns

🧵 Image
"Gut inflammation is strongly associated with #Spondyloarthritis (SpA), as exemplified by the high prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the even higher occurrence of subclinical gut inflammation in patients with #SpA."

"Gut #Microbiome composition differs across regions and ethnicities, changes over time, and can be influenced by multiple factors, including, among others, diet, lifestyle, hormonal cycles, disease, comorbidity..."

Since this got some attention, and few asked for details, let me elaborate. People were like this is keto, you don't know gluconeogenesis?, we are without sugar since 5 years, etc. So first some basics. 1/ #biochemistry #diet #nutrition
So, what happens when you have had dinner at 9 pm and slept off?
Okay, before that, the brain is a peculiar thing. Its preferred and predominant fuel is glucose.
The food takes roughly 4 hrs to be digested and assimilated. What supplies glucose after 1-2 am? #nutrition #diet
2 things:
1. We've stored glucose as glycogen in liver. So that gets broken down.
2. After few hours of that process, gluconeogenesis (process in which body makes glucose from 5 different things) starts.
They are overlapping processes, first major, second minor (to begin wth). 3/

Lets talk about #Immunity as #Coronavirus is here to stay for a while.Building immunity is a long-term process.Cant be achieved overnight.
Dietary Measures you need to take -
1)Eat Wholesome with emphasis on Protein in Every Meal. Both protein quality & quantity matters
#Thread
2) Vitamin C rich foods like amla,guava,oranges,lime juice or raw greens to be had daily.Note- Heat destroys Vit C.

3) Vitamin A rich foods like eggs, milk & milk products.Or Beta carotene ( precursor of Vit A ) in colorful fruits , veg are important
#Immunity #CoronaPandemic
(iv)Minerals like Zinc,Selenium in the diet are crucial. Sources include nuts,seeds,pulses,whole grains,eggs,meat ,fish,etc.
(v)Fibre -Include good quantity of vegetables,whole fruits,whole grains & pulses in the diet. Gut health should be taken care of.
