#Nutrition Absorption

[thelastspeecher]

so the biggest thing in this whole fructose malabsorption thing I've been diagnosed with and trying to figure out is the fructose to glucose ratio in foods. apparently, when glucose is consumed at the same time as fructose, it increases fructose absorption. so total fructose content, while important, isn't as important as making sure more glucose is consumed than fructose.

which means.

that fucking BRUSSELS sprouts, the vegetable notorious for being bitter and gross, are on the list of things I have to be careful with, bc while they have negligible sugar, that sugar very slightly is more fructose than glucose.

#why does glucose aid in fructose absorption? fuck if I know #I don't know about nutrition really #I got a C in biochem #my biology degree focused on environmental biology and microbiology #I don't know shit my guy #I'm operating off the organic chem courses I took years ago and they aren't as much help as I'd like #anyways now that I've recovered from being sick I'm back to food diary stuff #bc the general gist of everything I've been told is #''well there's broad rules but everyone is different so you're on your own to find out what you can do good luck'' #uuuuuuuuuuugggggggggggghhhhhhhh #speechie sucks at health #speecher speaks

the effect of what (and how) you eat

okay, this is a big topic. and so this is a long post. i'm going to be going over the effect of what you eat and why it's important to think about what foods you are consuming. don't worry! i do my research-- at the end of the post will be a few resources, and i'll show where i've gotten my information.

lots of dietary advice is available over the internet, but often the people absorbing the information do not understand the why. knowing where your information is coming from,, and not believing everything you read online is key to actually maintaining a good, healthy diet.

before you read: TRIGGER WARNING THERE IS MENTION OF EATING DISORDERS,,

let's start with this: like everything in this age, food is a double-edged sword. overconsumption and underconsumption can both kill you. what you eat; how you eat--it can help or hinder whatever your goals may be.

here's the effect/s: the connection between diet and mental health is profound. while we’ve long understood that diet plays a crucial role in overall health, emerging research in the field of nutritional psychiatry sheds light on how what we eat directly impacts our emotional well-being and mental state.

the brain-gut connection: the gut is closely linked to the brain. trillions of living microbes in our gut have essential functions, including synthesizing neurotransmitters. these neurotransmitters send chemical messages to the brain, regulating sleep, pain, appetite, mood, and emotions.

to improve your gut health, here's what you can do:

by eating a varied diet that includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds, essential nutrients are provided which feeds the beneficial bacteria in the gut. high fibre foods promote gut health by supporting good bacteria.

fermented foods, such as yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, and miso are rich in probiotics—live beneficial bacteria that boost gut health. kombucha (a fermented tea) is another option.

avoiding reducing processed foods can reduce the diversity of good bacteria in your gut. when i say processed foods, i'm referring to ultra-processed foods, for example, fried foods and frozen meals. they may be easy and cheap, but they include preservatives, artificial colouring, chemical flavouring and texturing agents. all of which our bodies are not made to consume. it's ignorant to tell you to avoid processed foods at all costs. that's not realistic, and a horrible mindset. instead, you should manage your intake. enjoy treats every now and then and don't punish yourself for it.

hydration is key to a healthy gut. water supports digestion and nutrient absorption.

stress management, eating well and exercise can also help your gut microbiome's health.

by having a healthy gut microbiome, you are helping your body to have lower chronic inflammation, have regular bowel movements and more effectively absorb nutrients. therefore, you will have a stronger immune system, have clearer skin and support your digestion and metabolism.

why eating protein matters: proteins are made of amino acids, which serve as the fundamental building blocks for various structures in our bodies. these amino acids are essential for forming enzymes, hormones, tissues, and DNA. protein is vital in maintaining and building muscle mass. when activities like strength training and physical exercise are engaged in, protein helps build and repair the muscles.

hemoglobin, a protein in our red blood cells, transports oxygen from our lungs to other tissues. without adequate protein, oxygen delivery would be compromised. antibodies, which defend against infections, are made of proteins. a well-functioning immune system relies on sufficient protein intake. collagen, a protein, maintains the integrity of our skin, hair, and nails. adequate protein supports healthy skin elasticity and wound healing.

the recommended dietary intake for protein relies on factors such as age, weight, height, gender, activity and overall health. remember that individual needs can vary, so consulting with a healthcare provider or registered dietitian is advisable to determine your specific protein requirements.

many diets exist that cut out entire macronutrients (keto for example) but that is not the way. each macronutrient has great importance in helping the body function.

carbohydrates are the body's (including the brain) preferred energy source. they enable muscle contraction during exercise and even at rest. carbs maintain body temperature, support heart function, and aid digestion.

the keto diet comes from the belief that when carbohydrates are not providing energy (are not being consumed), the body will use reserved energy stored in lipids (fat). while this is true, this diet is not maintainable-- it throws the body out of whack, storing more energy to maintain homeostasis.

fats provide energy and are essential for hormone production. they contribute to cell growth, brain health and vitamin absorption.

our brain is composed of ~60% fat. fats are essential for neurotransmitter production, affecting mood, cognition, and hormonal signalling. cholesterol, often associated with heart health, is a precursor for steroid hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone). without adequate cholesterol, our body cannot produce these essential hormones.

effects of diet on mood: firstly, going long periods without eating can cause a drop in blood sugar levels, leading to tiredness and irritability. secondly, consuming excessive amounts of food can make you feel tired and lethargic.

choosing the right carbohydrates can help maintain blood sugar levels. our brain primarily runs on glucose (obtained from carbohydrate-rich foods). you can opt for slow-release carbohydrates to maintain steady energy levels. slow-release carbohydrates (a.k.a low GI food) provide a more sustained and gradual release of energy compared to other carbohydrates. examples include fruits, vegetables, whole grains (grainy bread, brown rice, oats) and sweet potatoes. high GI foods rapidly spike blood sugar levels due to their quick digestion and absorption.

going too long without eating can lead to low blood sugar levels, resulting in irritability and fatigue. overeating to discomfort can also leave you feeling tired and lethargic. consistent, moderate-sized meals help maintain stable blood sugar levels and promote an even mood.

i know, overeating is an issue that one cannot simply 'turn off'. it's important to know the psychology, and if you struggle with it--please talk to a health professional.

here is what i can tell you about overeating:

overeating is typically a learned behaviour and habit. certain foods are associated with pleasure and reward. when enticing food is encountered, we engage in eating behaviour and immediately experience pleasure. this reinforces the habit, making it challenging to change.

overeating may be serving as a coping mechanism for emotions. when feelings of sadness, disappointment, frustration, or even joy arise, someone may turn to food. emotional eating provides temporary relief, reinforcing the behaviour.

the first delicious bite triggers pleasure, satiates our appetite, and improves our emotional state. our memory associates this reward process with eating, leading us to continually seek that pleasure. this is due to immediate reward.

people with eating disorders may disregard their health, body, body image and lifestyle goals. they use food as a way to punish themselves and gain control over their life. restrictive eating disorders can lead to 'binging behaviour'. bingeing serves as a way to numb emotions. anxiety, stress, and depression can trigger binge behaviours. consuming certain foods or substances (like junk food or alcohol) releases dopamine, the “feel-good” neurotransmitter. this chemical rush can lead to physical addiction, reinforcing bingeing. a culture (unfortunately which is abundant in the world today) that emphasizes consumption as a measure of worth can contribute to bingeing. messages about thinness, drinking, and material possessions can drive these behaviours.

i hate that i am having to say this but alcoholism is bad. and caffeine addiction is bad. in no way is harming your health aesthetic or 'a vibe'.

limiting caffeine and alcohol can also improve mood. again, i'd like to stress that there is never going to be one perfect diet, and allowing yourself to enjoy whatever food you like is perfectly fine- as long as you are doing so in moderation.

everything is a balance.

In the heart of a bustling metropolis, inside a state-of-the-art laboratory, Dr. Marcus Everson was on the brink of a groundbreaking discovery. Known for his sharp intellect and striking looks, Marcus dedicated his career to addressing one of humanity's greatest challenges: world hunger.

His latest invention was a potion, shimmering with a promising azure glow, designed to maximize nutritional absorption. The idea was simple yet revolutionary: a few drops could turn a minimal meal into a day's worth of sustenance. The implications for solving global hunger were immense.

Despite the risks, Marcus decided to test the potion on himself. He believed in leading by example, and what better way to demonstrate his confidence in the potion's safety and efficacy? With a steady hand, he administered a small dose, expecting little more than a mild sensation or perhaps a fleeting energy boost.

At first, nothing happened. Marcus felt a flicker of disappointment mixed with relief. He began to make notes, meticulously documenting his initial observations. Minutes ticked by in the quiet hum of his lab.

Then, it started.

A peculiar feeling washed over him, a deep, internal stirring unlike anything he had experienced before. He glanced down, noticing a subtle change in his normally flat abdomen. It was expanding, slowly but perceptibly. Marcus's eyes widened in astonishment. He rushed to the mirror, watching in disbelief as his slim frame began to swell.

Panic set in. He scrambled through his notes, trying to identify a miscalculation or a misstep in his process. But there was nothing, no immediate explanation for this extraordinary reaction.

His body continued to grow, his once lean physique inflating rapidly. The man who had always prided himself on his appearance, who had never struggled with a pound too many, was now ballooning beyond his wildest imagination.

As he surpassed what one might call overweight, then obese, and approached a size that could only be described as morbidly obese, Marcus's mind raced with scientific curiosity and personal horror. The laboratory, once a sanctuary of control and precision, felt like a chamber of unpredictable chaos.

He knew he needed help, but his pride, his reputation as a brilliant scientist, held him back. How could he face the world in this state? How could he explain that his ambition to solve world hunger had led to this bizarre personal catastrophe?

The story ends with Marcus, once a paragon of health and attractiveness, now a man of immense size, alone in his laboratory. The potion that was meant to change the world had indeed changed something - but it was not what he had intended. His journey, marked by a quest for scientific achievement, had taken a turn into the unknown, leaving him in a state of shock and disbelief at his own transformation.
