“Conclusion
A common dietary enhancer, MSG, has a high tendency to induce the development and progression of metabolic disorders such as obesity, cancer, hypertension and diabetes mellitus via various metabolic mechanisms involving induction of oxidative stress, hyperinsulinemia, dyslipidemia, hyperleptinemia, hyperphagia, GLUT transporters dysfunction and pro-proliferative action. Depending on the dosage, MSG can have both advantageous and detrimental effects, lower doses will enhance energy balance and homeostasis while excessive consumption may result in the initiation of metabolic disorders. Despite the concerns surrounding its safety, MSG is nevertheless still highly consumed globally. We suggest that the use of MSG as flavoring agent should be minimized while further research on the biochemical effects of chronic consumption by humans is highly recommended.”

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is one of the most popular food additives in the world and is often ingested with commercially processed foods. It can be d…

So true! 😓

This is so so true, Britelle Humfrey and I cannot wait to come on your next getaway and Juice Fast!

“You cannot learn other people's lessons for them. They must do the work for themselves and they will do it when they are ready.

We cannot force others to do the work. We can offer them a safe space where they have the possibility to take the opportunities presented to them i they wish. But we cannot do it for, or to, other people.

The irony is, everyone has to work out their own lessons, and if we fix it for them, they will just find themselves in the same situation again, because they have not worked out what they need to do for themselves.

The Universe has personal lessons for us all to learn.

All we can do is love them.
Allow them to be who they are.
Know that the truth is always within them.
Healing will happen in the moment that they are ready.”

One thing I notice is a new freshness and brighter eyes 💞💞💞🙌🙌🙌

One 2021 study analyzed the effects of periodic fasting on the human gut and found that fasting increased the diversity of helpful bacteria in the gut microbiome, including the Christensenella species, which are related to longevity.

The researchers also noted an increase in sirtuins, proteins involved in metabolic regulation that are also associated with longevity.

Periodic fasting (PF) is an increasingly popular approach that assists in the management of metabolic and inflammatory diseases as well as in preventing mechanisms involved in aging. However, little is known about the effects of fasting on gut microbiota ...
