More
than one hundred vitamin B6 - dependent enzymes have been identified, mostly involved in amino
acid metabolism: for oxygen transport via hemoglobin synthesis; in blood sugar regulation via conversion of stored
carbohydrate to energy; in the development of the myelin sheath surrounding nerve cells; in the conversion of alphalinoleic
acid to the essential long - chain fatty
acid DHA; 28 and in the synthesis of neurotransmitters, phospholipids and sphingolipids, the vitamin niacin from tryptophan, and other vital metabolites.5 In addition to its role in enzyme reactions, B6 appears to moderate the action of some steroid hormones such as the glucocorticoid hormones, which in turn influence the metabolism of protein,
carbohydrate and lipids.5, 9 B6 also is a potent antioxidant, rivaling carotenoids and vitamin E in its ability to quench reactive oxidants in the body.29
I would think, if liver helps anxiety, it could be down to a few things: 1) amino
acids (from proteins) are the building blocks of neurotransmitters (brain chemicals), so a diet deficient in one or more amino
acid could contribute to any mental health issue simply because you are unable to make the neurotransmitters; 2) liver is a great source of B Vitamins, important for mental health and managing anxiety and stress; 3) People eating a diet including protein with every meal plus good fats are likely to have better blood sugar balance
than those whose diets have a higher proportion of
carbohydrates.
Isoleucine can be seen as the BCAA which mediates glucose uptake (into a cell) and breakdown (into energy) to a larger degree
than other amino
acids and may serve a role as a hypoglycemic (in diabetics) or as a performance enhancer (if taken preworkout in a
carbohydrate replete state).
The assayed Ma - Pi 2 diet [20] is lower in energy
than the traditional one recommended for diabetic patients, but safe, with adequate satiating effect due to the high fiber content, adequate in protein (12 % of the total energy), with an acceptable amino
acid score, low in fat (15 % of the total energy), and high in complex
carbohydrates (73 %).
Other important minerals are magnesium — necessary for more
than 300 different important biochemical reactions in your body, and good for your heart and blood pressure; potassium — an electrolyte that keeps the body in the correct
acid / base balance and also helps in forming proteins, metabolizing
carbohydrates and building muscle.
VESPA is extremely expensive to produce due to the ingredients which are naturally - occurring, minimally processed insect products (honey, propolis, royal Jelly, wasp extract peptide) rather
than highly processed
carbohydrates, caffeine, B vitamins and / or synthesized amino
acids found in gels, supplements and energy drinks.
Medium chain fatty
acids also provide more energy
than carbohydrates and can aid in high cognitive output without the energy crash.
As shown previously [Rabinowitch & Smith, 1936], though the small amount of
carbohydrates in the diets may be more
than balanced by the potential sugar production from the large amount of protein to keep the ratio of fatty
acid to glucose below the generally accepted level of ketogenesis, the respiratory quotient data suggest another mechanism also.
When compared to these fatty
acids, MCTs are much shorter in length, thus resembling
carbohydrates more
than fat.
Essential fatty
acids control hormonal output a lot more
than carbohydrates do.
A robust biome actually is a substantial aid in
carbohydrate tolerance because the bacteria can convert starches and sugars into fatty

acids make the insulin level rise more
than a milk - powder
carbohydrate meal.
To add a little fuel to the fire, I'd also point out that dietary
carbohydrate intake has been shown to be more strongly correlated with circulating saturated fatty
acids than is dietary saturated fat intake.
When fatty
acids are free from fat cells and ready to be taken up for the chemical reactions to produce energy, the percent of fat used goes way up in comparison to fatty
acids sitting safe in fat cells (especially when through the specific dieting and lactic
acid resistance training a body is forced to mix fat with amino
acids rather
than carbohydrates).
There seem to be a lot of individuals within both the high and low
carbohydrate diet camps saying that fructose is bad for you — that it will raise your triglycerides and uric

carbohydrates.

This condition seen in prolonged fasting, type 1 diabetes and high - fat / low -
carbohydrate diets leads to the production of higher -
