Vitamin Cautions Explained

Precautions exist for Folic Acid, Selenium, Calcium, Zinc, Beta Carotene, Vitamins A, B1, B6, B12, C, D, & E. Why there are so many DESIGN FLAWS in multi-vitamin formulas may be a mystery to some, but after discovering the new vitamin reality presented on this website, the mystery will disappear. 

Have you heard this before?

New large study research found an association between higher vitamin B6 (>35mg) and B12 (>20 mcg) intakes with 50% increased risk of hip fractures. article The reason is unknown, but theories are offered! ref 

FUN FACTS

Plants and trees take in CO2 from the atmosphere to help growth. As CO2 levels increase from the burning of fossil fuels, volcano eruptions, ocean water temperature changes, and melting permafrost, plants and trees have been busy growing faster and larger. In fact this fun fact has lead to the re-greening of many non plant areas of the planet. NASA over the last decade has been measuring this effect from satellites in space taking pictures. article

So far, this re-greening has impacted an area twice the size of the continental United States with new plant and tree coverage. This will significantly slow down any climate changes as this new green area growth will absorb quite a lot of future CO2 emissions. This gives Nations more time to make and implement non CO2 energy changes. article

The Sun is due to flip poles within a year. Have to wait and see what the effects will be from the increased release of electromagnetic energy coupled with this event. Were the Northern Lights showing up in lower altitudes recently a beginning? article

Protein Powders

When Is there a need for extra dietary protein?

  • Body builders looking to quickly add muscle size 
  • Extra protein is used to replace fats and carbohydrates for weight loss 
  • Extra protein is added to prevent muscle loss during the ageing process  
  • To maintain muscle mass during illness recovery or after surgery
  • There is also need for some extra protein the last 2 trimesters of pregnancy

SOURCES OF PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS 

  • Egg Protein
  • Milk Solids Protein (Casein)
  • Milk liquid proteins (Whey)
  • Soy Protein
  • Beef Protein
  • Brown Rice Protein
  • Pea Protein
  • Liver and Yeast Protein
  • Hemp Protein
  • Sunflower (seeds) Protein
  • Nut butter Proteins
  • Grain proteins 

Liver and Brewers Yeast were the first protein supplements. Then Milk, Whey, and Soy became dominate. Whey quickly gained superior status.  Soy protein issues became controversial, and lately as animal disease issues rose up, plant proteins gained popularity.

What are the Different Protein Types and Forms? 

  • Concentrates
  • Isolates
  • Hydrolyzed 

WHAT ARE THE ISSUES FOR PROTEIN POWDERS? 

  • All the sources have issues that need clarification
  • Some sources and formats require different levels of processing
  • Some forms like concentrates are the leasted processed while the isolates need more
  • Cleaner sources like non-GMO and Organic produce healthier finished produces 

 

To be continued 

 

notes

some body builders exhibited Liver and Kidney damages

bone loss was found to increase

onsuming animal forms of extra protein might have increased pH into the acid range for those without enough dietary alkaline minerals to balance.

increase the need for body processes to withdraw these minerals out of bones.

Plant source proteins put less stress on pH change than animal sources. Another reason to eat vegetables.

Also unknown until recently, a high protein diet, more so from animal than plant protein sources, can upset the intestinal tract microbial balance and tip it toward undesirable bacterial types. Again this might be from a pH or acid alkaline balance modification. Animal protein sources contain sulfur, an acid producing mineral, while plant protein sources do not. Animal sources of proteins were mainly used since they contain the complete amino acid profile while plant sources do not. Mixing two or three plant sources together gets closer to complete. Plant proteins are low in the sulfur containing amino acids, the building blocks of protein.
