Low carb / keto diet science stuff, none of the fluff.

[KetoScience @KetoScience]

We need to standardise the definition of what we know of as "low carb" etc, as for too long papers have been published with whatever arbitrary term they wanted to convey.

@CarnivoreAugust @exfatloss Yeah, sorta. This account was on autopilot for years.

@lowcarbGP >about 2016 that we stopped worrying about dietary cholesterol

Who is "we"?

@CaloriesProper Fun fact: FFQ's were invented by Denisovans.

@tecoughlin Interesting, but nothing much to be learned or acted upon from results.

Carbs + protein after endurance training improves mTOR gene expression 🧬

This study recruited 25 healthy participants to 6 weeks of endurance training (4x per week) 🏃‍♂️

Immediately & 1hr post-exercise participants consumed either:

1️⃣ 1.6 g/kg carbohydrate
2️⃣ 0.8 g/kg carbs + 0.8 g/kg protein

After 6 weeks the carbs + protein group showed elevated muscle mTOR gene expression compared to carb only (+46% vs +4%) 📈

However, improvements in VO2max were similar between groups ⚖️

Nutritionally regulated cellular adaptations to endurance training may require > 6 weeks 🗓️

Or is this an example of chasing pathways instead of outcomes?🫀

Morning hyperinsulinemia boosts hepatic glucose uptake and glycogen storage later, highlighting its importance in metabolic regulation.

Less insulin over longer duration more effective than more over a shorter time for glucose metabolism in the afternoon.

Emerging nutrition science, personalized low-carb diets with adequate protein (1.2-2g/kg), and achieving euketonemia (0.5-5mM ketones) offer a promising path for weight loss and management in many individuals with excess body fat.

Reduction in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL particle concentration, small LDL, and large VLDL. However HDL cholesterol and large HDL increased. #heartbloodcholesterol #keto #science https://t.co/5cDUh0hOQk

Moderate changes in dietary protein intake cause adaptive alterations in renal size and function to suit needs, without indications of adverse effects. #organs #keto #science https://t.co/xb0Y9TNqWi

It therefore seems reasonable to assume that dietary carbohydrates mainly fuel malignant cells, while muscle cells are more likely to benefit from an increased fat and protein intake. #cancer #keto #science https://t.co/6PK18ZCDpa

Self-rated hunger decreased in women in the low-carbohydrate/high-protein but not in the high-carbohydrate/low-fat group. #satiety #keto #science https://t.co/i9X3Ug5MXg
