      I'm not sure if your workouts are different now but...please include the workout routine you had when you were experimenting to see if minimal weight training helps to maintain/grow muscles (I'm referrimg to the "only dumbells at home" workout that you have mentioned in another podcast).
      I'm seeing gains with short, minimal but intense workouts ( thank God) so i'm very interested to learn about your routine.

    Don't apologize for tracing the chemistry involved. That's exactly why I follow Mobeed Sayed's channel. With two biochemical researchers for parents that was normal dinnertime conversations a kid in the 60.

I learned a lot of organic chemistry by osmosis.

    I find your teachings very considerate of your audience who no doubt have very different levels of knowledge. It's mostly too much for me; I don't have the basic knowledge and framework into which to slot new information. Nevertheless I find your stuff more satisfying than many "explanations" of insulin resistance that come off more like uninvestigated hypothesis stated as fact and couched in terms of cells with personalities. It seems to me you have the genuine deep knowledge; you don't vomit it all up at once and if I don't fully grasp what you do explain then that's my fault not yours. You're pitching at a level that provides a rare value. Thanks for the education!

The whole process in which a cell goes through mitosis interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Brings back so many memories from 91'.

I knew what you were talking about when you said that you wanted calcium for polarity within the mitochondria from a previous video where you described the elctron transfer chain by helping to push the positive protons to the other side of the membrane and then allowing the proton to go back into the last protein back to the other side of the membrane.

    @peterholt4806 Рік тому +1

    Nic. I love your presentations. Both the detail and your relaxed style. However, and this isn't aimed just at you, I hate the use of the term "Blood sugar". The sugar in blood is Glucose. It is "a sugar" (one of a few ..oses), but it is not what we all know as "sugar". Which is "white stuff". "Table sugar". "Sucrose". I know of quite a few people who have had reports of raised "Blood sugar" and so they have cut down on "sugar", but still continued with high levels of Starch, not realising that it is refined Starch that, more than anything else, raises your blood glucose. It would be more beneficial for population education if you all called it "Blood Starch". I know that Sucrose has its issues in the body, and for intake to be reduced, but for most people with blood glucose issues, your best bet is to give up anything with wheat in, as well as Sucrose.

    Amply enjoyed the longer format than what the attention deficient crowds might prefer.

    Great info, thank you. In this and probably other videos, an important question is: when ingested orally, do any of these agents ever find their way into the cells? I guess this is called "bioavailability" and I'd love to hear more about it.

  • @theursulus
    @theursulus Рік тому

    Hi, I have a question regarding insulin resistance. So, your video outlines the mechanism, nicely done by the way, by which too much glucose/fat creates and over abundance of ROS which in turn can add the incorrect phosphate group to the insulin messenger within the cell. Why doesn't lowering glucose availability fix this. Theoretically if a cell is insulin resistant because of a surplus if ROS then shouldn't simply lowering glucose availability fix this and effectively reset the system? Why is it so hard to reverse insulin resistance? There must be more to it? Or a fast should reset the system at which time glucose metabolism should return to normal.

    I have heard this description more or less detailed and it always seems like pure theory or hypothesis but not proven. I say this because we know betweem the liver and muscle cells we have roughly 600 grams of glycogen/glucose storage. If someone is habitually consuming a high glycemic diet there glycogen storage will always be full. So then the liver has to convert the extra glucose from a meal into triglycerides in order to keep the blood glucose levels in a normal range. So type 2 diabetes isnt a glucose storage issue its a fat storage and liver, mitocondrial dysfunction issue from damage from ectopic fat causing liver disease and dysfunction and obviously mitocondrial dysfunction. Its from habitual flooding the liver with pure fuel sugar and fat primarily from processed food but animal products can be contributory. Processed food is like pure fuel in a whole food digestive system. If it were whole foods animal and plant it would be far harder to cause flooding of fuel because of fiber and how meat is comprised its slower and more evenly digested.

    Superoxide is innately found in the mitochondria, so I should take this information as something the body creates on it's own? We make our own antioxidants or are there more functions for superoxide?
    Glycosylase is reading and fixing errors in genes, what are it's components and how do we help this system? If errors happen 1 out of 100 million times should we consider that cancers are a result of a poorly functioning Glycosylase system, perhaps the body is not receiving the correct nutrition an over abundance of poor nutrition that just adds more stress to the already poorly functioning system.
    How do these systems perform during fasting, during high energy intake, low energy intake over LONG periods of time and will different foods create different components of these systems, specifically Glycosylase?
    Sirtuins sound like messengers in a cell, is that their role in a nutshell?

    • @Physionic
      @Physionic  3 роки тому

      The body generates its own superoxide (this is a ROS), and it generates its own superoxide dismutase (the antioxidant).
      The components of glycosylase are amino acids, just like any other enzyme. I think the only way to help it is by leading a healthy lifestyle and avoiding cancer causing habits (sun with no sunscreen, for example).
      Fasting and low energy intake tend to slow the damaging of our cells, but I'm unsure how it would necessarily affect our repair systems - I don't think it's been studied.
      In a manner of speaking, sure, but that's true of many proteins in our cells (messengers).
