The Waste Accumulation Theory of Aging Lipofuscin is a complex mixture of oxidized protein and lipid degradation residues, along with lesser amounts of carbohydrates and metals. Iron is predominant among the metals in lipofuscin (3, 4); copper, zinc, and other metals have also been detected (5). Decades might be required for the "natural" accumulation of lipofuscin in the h

GSH = glutathione N-acetylcysteine (NAC) = cysteine supplement ROS = Reactive Oxygen Species SAA = Sulfur Amino Acid In its best-known role, GSH participates in enzyme-mediated reactions to neutralize ROS, preventing the accumulation of ROS damage to DNA, proteins, and lipids. Glutathione peroxidases play a key role in this process by catalyzing the reaction of GSH with peroxides, incl

Wheatgrass has been studied in the treatment of pancytopenia [10], hematological toxicity related to chemotherapy in cancer patients [11], and in thalassemia [12-13]. In Indian studies, wheatgrass has been shown to reduce the requirements of blood transfusion [12-13]. The postulated mechanism of wheatgrass extract is the rapid absorption of chlorophyll and action at the cellular level in

In that video he said that multivitamins can prevent B12 absorption. I don't know if a B complex could be considered a multivitamin. But it is good to know just in case. In the previous videos, it shows that B12 absorption can be compromised. So that means that for a small percentage of people, food or pills cannot help. They would need sublingual or intramuscular injection. It is difficult to ma

QuoteHorsea If we need to ingest only 2.4 mcg of B12 per day, why do the vast majority of B12 pills (or sprays) contain so much more? Apparently anything more than the recommended dose goes to waste. My guess is that extra B12 is excreted. There are exceptions. Very high B12 during pregnancy (with supps) can potentially cause autism on kids. With age you need higher intake dose. It is be

I was referring to the black, kidney, navy beans. Soluble fiber (in large amounts) can also cause delays. For example, cooked oats can create a semi thick gelatin like substance that mechanically plugs down the flow. Apples can cause it too. Also, there are age related declines in smooth muscle function, nerve function, etc., that can play a role. This age decline could be corrected with so

Some fat is good and some type of fats are good. Most people get constipation from eating supplements. If you want to speed things up, check your supplements as the first cause. High fat slows digestion. If you want faster transit time, eat less fat. Eat more vit C (citrus). Too much fat can sink you. All dietary fat goes through the cells before it goes into the blood.

Our synthesis provided convincing evidence that fat-rich meals have an undoubted capacity to transiently modulate postprandial metabolic endotoxemia in humans. Indeed, recent studies have demonstrated that fat absorption and digestion is a step where dissociated LPS can be incorporated into chylomicrons (i.e., lipoproteins responsible for the transport of lipids through the gut barrier) there

Diet which is high in protein generates a large amount of acid in body fluids [2]. The kidneys respond to this dietary acid challenge with net acid excretion, and, concurrently, the skeleton supplies buffer by active resorption of bone resulting in excessive calcium loss [2]. Moreover, acid loading directly inhibits renal calcium reabsorption leading to hypercalciuria in combination with the
