#WALKING🚶‍♂️ CAN HALF THE INFLUENCE OF GENES ON #OBESITY

❎ Watching too much television📺 can worsen your genetic tendency towards obesity,
✅ But you can cut the effect in half if you walk briskly for an hour a day🚶‍♂️⌚, report researchers at the sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/…
American Heart Association's 2012 Scientific Sessions on Epidemiology and Prevention/Nutrition, Physical Activity and Metabolism

❌A sedentary lifestyle🛌 marked by watching TV 4 hours a day increased genetic influence by 50 percent👀
🤓 Each gene that increases BMI 👉 was associated with 0.13 kilograms/square meter (kg/m 2 ) in BMI.
🚴‍♂️ The highest level of physical activity significantly reduced Obese genes 👉 reducing BMI 👉 comparing 0.08 vs. 0.15 kg/m 2
📺The genetic effect on BMI was more pronounced in people who spent 40 hours (0.34 kg/m 2) a week watching television compared to those who spent an hour or less (0.08 kg/m 2)

🚶‍♂️The equivalent of brisk walking for one hour per day was associated with a 0.06 kg/m 2
reduction in the genetic effect on BMI 📺📺 and each 2-hour increase per day in which watching television was associated with a 0.03 kg/m 2 increase in the genetic effect on BMI. Image

Magnesium in Obesity, Metabolic Syndrome, and Type 2 Diabetes

1️⃣Mg2+ Deficiency

Causes: los dietary Mg ínstame, impared gastrointestinal absorption, drugs, ethanol abuse, genetic factors, impaired renal function Image
Moderate/subclinical deficiency of Mg 2+ induces low-grade chronic inflammation < inflammatory cytokines and production of free radicals < hypertension, cardiovascular disorders, metabolic syndrome and diabetes

2️⃣ Mg 2+ and Obesity

Obese subjects > their energy comes from the diet rich in refined cereals and simple sugars > they have liver catabolism of very active glucose.

✔️Several enzymes of glucose oxidation pathways are dependent on Mg 2+

WHAT TIME DEADLINE IS IDEAL FOR DINNER WITHOUT AFFECTING OUR HEALTH? frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

>Nonagenarians and Centenarians were studied in a city in Italy. Image
➡️It was shown that his longevity was based on:
✔️Eat vegetables🥬, fruits🍎 and animal protein (meat)🥩
✔️Moderate physical activity continues🏃‍♂️🚶‍♂️
✔️Low carbohydrate diet
🎯The most striking thing is that they HAD DINNER at 7:30 PM🕰️ and DID NOT EAT FOR 17.5 hours every day after dinner.

They made a comparison with people with metabolic diseases (diabetes, hypertension, etc) that just eating dinner at 9 pm changed their health.👈

😋Consumption of #KIWI 🥝 improves #DREAM 😴

✔️ Kiwis have been shown to contain melatonin (24 µg/g) 👉 regulates circadian rhythm 👉 reconciles and maintains sleep.
✔️ Kiwis contain serotonin (5.8 µg / g) 👉 improves sleep and mood. Image
✔️Kiwis contain folate 👉 improve folate status 👉 improve sleep
Since Folate (Vit. B9) deficiency has been linked to insomnia and restless leg syndrome.
Consuming 2 kiwis🥝🥝 1h before going to bed for 4 weeks significantly improved total sleep time😴 as measured by actigraphy (16.9%) and sleep efficiency (2.4%) mdpi.com/2072-6643/15/1…

Synergistic Action of Membrane-Bound and Water-Soluble Antioxidants in Neuroprotection:
ZEAXANTHIN, LUTEIN, VITAMIN E, VITAMIN C AND OMEGA-3
mdpi.com/1420-3049/26/1…
The potential of dietary micronutrients to maintain membrane fluidity and prevent chronic inflammation focuses on membrane-soluble components that act synergistically (zeaxanthin, lutein, vitamin E and AGPI omega-3) and water-soluble components (vitamin C and various phenols).
The prevention of neurodegeneration during aging and the support of optimal brain function throughout life require the protection of the structure and function of the membrane
