Eating almonds and almond butter can help control blood sugar levels. A study found that meals containing almonds resulted in lower blood sugar and insulin levels after eating compared to meals without almonds. The antioxidants in almonds also increased after eating the almond meal. Further research showed that consuming almonds with high glycemic index foods lowers the glycemic index of the meal and lessens rises in blood sugar, with greater amounts of almonds providing greater benefits. By blunting insulin and blood sugar spikes after meals, almond butter is effective in controlling blood sugar.

The Science of Weight Loss: Why Most Diets Fail & How to SucceedJohn Mauremootoo
In this presentation, I review weight management approaches that have shown success in high quality peer reviewed publications. I begin by listing the evidence filters I use to assess the science, briefly summarise the rising obesity epidemic, reveal the (underwhelming) secret of weight loss - spoiler alert: its calories in vs. calories out! However, the devil is in the detail and the remainder of the presentation unpacks this detail to provide information on the components of weight loss and how to manipulate these components to maximise success and long term well-being.

Carbohydrates provide the body's primary source of energy. They are produced by plants through photosynthesis and converted into glucose when consumed. Glucose is the preferred energy source for blood, brain, and nervous system. Carbohydrates provide 60-65% of daily calories and dietary fiber. They are classified as simple or complex depending on their molecular structure. The glycemic index ranks carbohydrates based on their effect on blood glucose levels compared to glucose. Many factors like fiber, fat, and cooking method influence a food's glycemic index score. Focusing on low glycemic index foods as part of a balanced diet can help control blood sugar and reduce risk of chronic diseases.

This document discusses calcium and its importance for bone health. It recommends daily calcium intake amounts based on age, and notes that calcium comes primarily from dairy products. Not getting enough calcium can lead to osteoporosis and weak bones. It encourages consuming adequate calcium from milk and other dairy or green vegetables every day, especially during growth periods, to build strong bones and prevent osteoporosis. Exercise and sunlight exposure also contribute to bone strength.
Protein is essential for growth, repair, and functions like muscle building, enzyme activity, and immune support. It's composed of amino acids and can be complete (animal sources) or incomplete (plant sources). Animal-based sources include meat, fish, eggs, and dairy, while plant-based sources include legumes, nuts, seeds, and soy. Recommended daily intake varies by age and activity. Protein is crucial for exercise recovery. While supplements are available, a balanced diet is best. Balancing protein with carbs and fats supports overall health.

Potential side effects of high protein intake are also mentioned.
This document provides an overview of functional meat products. It defines functional foods and discusses opportunities and drivers for their development, including growing health issues. Meat can act as an excellent vehicle for delivering bioactive compounds. Strategies for developing functional meat products include modifying animal diets and feed to alter the fatty acid or nutrient composition of meat. Products can also be reformulated by reducing fat content, adding plant proteins, probiotics, dietary fiber, minerals, vitamins, or antioxidants. Unhealthy compounds like sodium can also be reduced. Functional meat products could help address health issues like obesity if their effects are substantiated in human studies.

Protein is an essential nutrient
Needed for optimal health
An inadequate amount leads to
Bloated swollen bellies
Inflammation
Liver failure
Skin hair and nail problems
Loss of muscle mass
Greater bone fracture risk
Infection severity increase
Greater appetite and calorie intake
2nd most plentiful bodily substance next to water
It’s everywhere
Skin
Muscles
Hair
Blood
Body organs
Eyes
Fingernails
Bones
It’s a Macronutrient
Needed it in relatively large amounts
On par with fats and carbohydrates
Larger than micronutrient needs (vitamins & minerals)

Consumption
In animal or plant form
In supplement form
Saliva
Slightly broken down by enzymes in the saliva
Stomach
Further breaks down proteins into smaller chain amino acids
Smaller Intestine
Pancreas enzymes with a buffer reduce acidity level
Allows the smaller chain amino acids to be broken down individually
Microvilli in small intestine allows amino acids to be absorbed and then released into the blood stream
Blood Stream
Amino acids are then transported to cells in the body
Cells
Cells take these amiono acids and uses them for tissue repair and muscle building

Growth & Maintenance
Proteins in body in constant turnover state
Normally, same amount of protein is broken down and used to build and repair tissues
(1). More than likely, this is the recommended daily allowance
Periods of illness, during pregnancy, while breastfeeding, while recovering from an injury or surgery, being older, being an athlete?
(1). More protein is broken down than the body can create
(a). Your body will need more
Balances Fluid
Albumin & Globulin
Proteins in the blood
Attracts & retains water
Levels decrease if inadequate protein is consumed
(1). Results in them not being able to keep blood in blood cells (forced into spaces between cells)
(a). Swelling in the abdomen can be a result of this
Bolsters Immune Health
Proteins form antibodies to fight infection
Protects against viruses and bacteria
(1). Tags foreign invaders for elimination
(a). Enables cells to never forget how to make them
(i). Develops immunity so antibodies can respond quickly once the virus or bacteria invades the body again
Provides Energy
Provides minimum of its energy for bodily needs
This is because it’s widely used throughout the body
Carbs & fats are metabolized more efficiently
Carb & fats shortage, low calorie intake, or a state of fasting
Body can get energy from proteins
(1). It gets it from the amino acids from broken-down skeletal muscle

a. The marketing of Plasmon died down in 1914
Bodybuilding
In the 1950s
a. protein supplementation began to be marketed again
(1). Egg protein was used by competitive bodybuilders
(2). Whey protein came later
(a). for those who wanted to lose weight, gain muscle mass, or use it as a meal replacement
(b). all amino acids
(c). lot or protein packed per serving
(d). not good for people with dairy allergens
(3). Soy protein quick to follow whey
(a). provided a plant-based alternative
(b). losing popularity due to GMO soy being used, food sensitivities, and anti-nutrient properties
(4). Pea protein came around with soy
(a). contains lectins and can cause upset stomachs
(5). Hemp and rice protein are new to the market
(a). great nutrient profile

Weight Management
Feel fuller for longer
Smaller portion sizes
Less frequent snacking
Might reduce body weight and total fat mass
Muscle Growth
improved muscle size and strength
When accompanied with resistance exercise training
Effective for men and women
Maxes out at 1.6 grams per kilogram of body weight
(1). More may be needed for older population
Recovery After Exercise
Speeds up recovery from soreness after exercise
Reduces damage to muscles and improves performance and protein synthesis of the muscles
Added Nutrition
Recommended daily intake is 46 grams for women and 56 grams for men
f this is hard for individuals to reach due to dietary choices, protein supplementation can help them achieve it
People might need more; supplementation is helpful (double the recommended daily intake)
(1). athletes, weightlifters, elderly, and people who might have a chronic illness
Better Athletic Performance
Promotes muscle hypertrophy
Accelerates gains in aerobic and anaerobic power

A. Added Sugars
1. Some have a little
2. Some have a lot
a. 23 grams a scoop in an example
3. American Heart Association recommends 24 grams of added sugar per day for women and 36 grams for men
B. Added Calories
1. An extreme example
a. Some protein powders, when added with milk, can equal more than 1200 calories
b. ’m sure this can happen when other foods are added to the protein shake
(1). peanut butter, bananas, ice cream, etc
2. Risk involved
