Biohack pt II (fats and mindful eating)

(UNFINISHED BUT PUBLISHED)
Continuing the series on the latest findings in health and medicine

FATS and the FDA LIES
-fats for breakfast and all day-HPT axis!
The FDA made a huge mistake interpreting studies on heart disease and have made a whole generation scared to consume fats, This directly led to the massive increase in type ii diabetes.
The glands control the body, hypothalumus-pituitary-thyroid axis is a cascade that starts at the top. These glands require saturated fat to function optimally. The body requires fat to burn fat, Lard, butter, coconut oil and seafood are great choices, yes lard is back. other important bodily functions rely on saturated fat.
- it has been shown that dieters who eat a higher percentage of saturated fat lose more fat than those who eat lesser percentage.
-saturated fat actually reduces lipoproteins (ldl's and hdl's) cholesterol is not the same
-To get calcium incorporated into bone saturated fat is required. In fact it is so important, some doctors advise up to 50% of calories come from them for those patients with osteoporosis. Combine with heavy resistance training for best effect.
-liver health is crucial for proper metabolism. If you always dehydrated, take acetaminophen, similar products, prescriptions or drink alcohol, then your liver is getting shredded on the cellular level. How to protect it? Saturated fats
-breathing! Every airspace of the lungs are coated with a thin layer of surficant which assures that they function efficiently. This layer is 100% saturated fat. People who have eliminated saturated fat from their diets replace this with different kinds of fat, which have proven to be faulty.
-the brain is pretty much a mass of fat and cholesterol. New cells are being generated everyday, not supplying the raw materials is not a wise way to go.
-proper nerve signaling is important for metabolism, immune response and cognitive ability among other functions like insulin release. Saturated fats function as direct signal messengers
-immune sytem: loss of fatty acids in white blood cells hampers it's ability to locate and eradicate foriegn invaderslike viruses, bacteria and fungi.

also:
  • The preferred fuel for your heart, and also used as a source of fuel during energy expenditure
  • Useful antiviral agents (caprylic acid)
  • Effective as an anticaries, antiplaque and anti-fungal agent (lauric acid)
  • Useful to actually lower cholesterol levels (palmitic and stearic acids)
  • Modulators of genetic regulation and prevent cancer (butyric acid)
-Mindful Eating
     I get asked a lot about supplements in my line of work. My answer is if you are not eating and sleeping like you should, dont even bother. Again we go back to mothers wisdom and common sense. We are finding that the health and metabolism are dependent on more than just diet, exercise and yearly physicals. Metabolism varies so much from person to person it is pointless to count calories. Bodybuilders and athletes take digestive enzymes and even potentially lethal insulin to get maximum absorption of nutrients. There is a better and just as effective way to do this.
     It basically comes down to chew and savor until easy to swallow.
 Proper digestion is cooperative process between the oragans, glands, enzymes and you. The team needs to work together smoothly and that requires every player to do their part properly. Your part, the voluntary portion of Digestion, is chewing your food. The better job you do, the easier your team has it, creating a potential for success. It is common knowledge but im guessing 99.999% of us do not masticate properly every meal.
     Meals that are enjoyed and savored are digested at a higher rate than those that are not. Chewed more? Quantum biology? Homemade placebo? Whatever the case may be this is something that we can utilize in our program. Combine eating foods you love in small portions and chew the sheit out of every bite. 2 days of this mindful eating will yield results you can see and feel.
Next up:

   
-breathing techniques why, how and when?

 Physical Education 101 - all of these techniques should be mandatory in school and life. A basic instruction manual for the human body cars and homes are getting more attention. The benefits vs the amount of time required make this another mandatory technique. To hear the following and not implement it into your routine is asinine, to not teach your kids is neglectful.
     Deep breathing benefits are immediate and numerous.  Some of these:

 1. The true detoxifier_ You hear a lot about toxins, cleanses and fasts. The true detoxifier is the exhalation. 70% of toxin release is through the lungs. Deep breathing increases the efficiency. 
    Oxygens true purpose

2. Specific breathing patterns correlate absolutely with certain emotions. This is common knowledge, we all know this. Yet think about what this implies for a minute. Slow deep breathing through the abdomen and fear, anger and panic will never coincide. You control breathing, you control your emotions. You control emotions and you control stress levels. You control stress levels your winning the game of life. You show others how to do it and your on the road to sainthood.    
Think how your body feels when you are tense, angry, scared or stressed. It constricts. Your muscles get tight and your breathing becomes shallow. When your breathing is shallow you are not getting the amount of oxygen that your body needs.
