For those interested in the subject of fructose, this is an interesting study In nature, fructose commonly occurs together with glucose The use of mixed sugars are more metabolically predictive of dietary consequences than that from single monosaccharides studied individually, as metabolism of each type of sugar is not independent from the other (discussed below). Metabolic interaction

Quotefresh How do wild animals figure out what to eat to live energetically? Do they calculate sucrose? That is easy. The only wild animals left are the ones that didn't die. But the humans that go inside a supermarket to get food, they chose among thousands of products. Did you buy food in a supermarket? If so, you made a decision that is not natural.

OK some practical info. 1 cup of grape juice (253 grams of juice) = Glucose = 17.2 grams Fructose = 18.6 grams Total = 35.8 (close to 40 grams) Depending on liver size the capacity could go from 60 grams to 120 grams (large person). With a normal liver glycogen capacity of 80 grams, a cup of grape juice would fill up half the tank (40 grams). With a rate of 10 grams an hour, a c

The closest juice to fill up the liver tank is probably grape juice. Grape juice, canned or bottled, unsweetened, without added ascorbic acid Grape juice, purple, with added vitamin C, from concentrate, shelf stable Sucrose 0.04 g Glucose 6.81 g Fructose 7.36 g The fructose to glucose ratio is 50/50 and there is no sucrose. It should go straight to the liver tank assuming

Ok here is a little explanation. Hempseeds has lots of the aminoacid glycine. Glycine promotes sleep. The sweetener then releases serotonin (neurotransmitter made from tryptophan). Then serotonin makes melatonin.

Aminoacids from protein also converts to glycogen in the liver. A possible guess would be hempseed milk with some sweetener (tsp honey). Find an amount that does not make too energetic. You need the sweetener to release tryptophan. Liquid should be better than solid for sleep (no digestion).

The glycogen in the liver is like a sand clock. It depletes with time to maintain a constant blood glucose level. Three meals in 24 hours 24/3 = 8 hours 8 hours = 80 grams of glycogen (approx). This approximation gives 10 grams per hour (it is probably half during sleep). So you have a daily rate of 10 grams of liver glycogen per hour and from there you could make your calculations.

To summarize, the brain is energetically 100% fruitarian. The body is not. If the brain uses 20% of the energy, then it could be said that humans are approximately 20% fruitarians. In a 2200 calorie diet, 20% = 440 calories. Divide 400/3 (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) and you get about 150 calories (a 1.5 banana). Then the max liver capacity for glycogen is about 80 grams after which it is me

We are two animals in one. Each of the two animals have a different diet. One of the animals does not exist in nature and cannot be compared with another animal. The first animal is the body. The second animal grew on top of the first (on top of the brain stem) and it is the cortex. The second animal feeds from the liver of the first animal. So you have to have two different diets. One to feed th

You can do something about it. Actually, the human brain came about from eating fruit. I don't mean to eat only fruit (not from being a fruitarian. The brain requires fructose but on a demand basis. If you exceed it, then it metabolizes on fat (fatty liver) and triglycerides, which will be bad on thelong term. To make it perfect, you have to account went you ate last before sleep with the purpose

You hear many people say that the circadian rhythm is very important. That you were born with circadian rhythm and that it is like it is. But that is just an easy fabrication made up to look like the rise of the waves with the moon. There is a better explanation. When you wake up, it is not from your circadian rhythm. It is cortisol. Cortisol comes up when the blood glucose is bellow a certain le

Here is another food that supposedly increases energy on males. It works using the same method as honey. In summary, there is an evidence that onions enhance testosterone level in males. The mechanisms by which this occurs is mainly by increasing the production of luteinizing hormone, enhancing the antioxidant defense mechanism in the tests, neutralizing the damaging effects of the generat

As I understand, the black tea would reduce absorption of iron. Honey enhances absorption because of the copper effect. I would not worry too much. The following link shows how honey can have another energetic effect but on males only (hormonal). I think I'll stop posting more honey stuff just in case.

Well, it may not be straight forward. For example, the trick could be in the iron being available and being in its best form. But the study above showed that honey also increase serum copper by 33%. Copper also has an energetic effect. The following link shows how this can have a positive effect on energy. Copper is incorporated into a variety of proteins and metalloenzymes which pe

One way to tell if you are low in iron is if you think you have lactic acid accumulation Lactic Acidosis as a Result of Iron Deficiency It is concluded that iron deficiency by a depletion in the iron-containing mitochondrial enzyme, a-glycerophosphate oxidase, impairs glycolysis, resulting in excess lactate formation, which at high levels leads to cessation of physical activity.

The secret for more energy is iron. Many people don't thrive because of low iron. Honey will significantly increase your iron levels (even in carnivores). Iron supplements are bad. If you take a teaspoon of honey before a meal, it will also multiply the effect of the meal. I think that pollen has iron too. It may be concluded that honey increased antioxidant agents, serum iron and blood in

Many times salt is avoided but this can be bad for your health. Sea salt does not cause hypertension (but regular salt does). Low fluid volume from low sodium intake can cause many problems from brain problems, heart palpitations, to constipation (dryness). The solution is not to drink more water (it makes things worse by peeing the sodium) but to increase fluid by eating sodium. Hyponatraemia

I guess that the argument assumes that plants are capable of wanting and then capable of creating a plan (make a substance that becomes an anti nutrient). What if you use a plant for other purpose, would the plant create another substance?

One aminoacid that plays a big role is glutamine (sold as l-glutamine). It reduces cortisol and stress by repairing. It is used after injury (stress, workout). It is probably the aminoacid that has an immediate effect if you need it. It brings you up right away if sore. It fights infections too.
