Not exact matches

The soluble fiber also stabilizes blood sugar by slowing the release of carbohydrates in the digestive system.

Conclusion: Researchers observed reductions in markers of muscle damage and improved athletic performance in subjects taking the whey protein, HMB, and isomaltulose supplement, suggesting that whey protein supplementation can be optimized for muscle recovery during intense conditioning by adding HMB and a slow - release carbohydrate.

This is actually a neat trick — you can tell if your egg protein powder is pure or at least high in albumen and low in carbohydrates, fats and gelling agents by the amount of foam released when you whip them and the duration for which it exists.

What I mean by this is that when we consume a healthy source of fat, fibre or protein with high - carbohydrate or naturally sweetened foods, it slows the release of glucose (sugar) into your bloodstream which will help to prevent a spike in energy followed by an energy crash.

The mechanism by which carbohydrate, including sugars, may affect mood is uncertain, but may involve the synthesis and release of serotonin in the brain.

For example, the carbohydrates in the food break down into another type of sugar, called glucose, which is then absorbed by the stomach and small intestines and released into the bloodstream.

Researchers have investigated the effects of refined sugars on cognitive function, and conclude that «Special care in food selection at meals should be exercised by those with type 2 diabetes since ingestion of rapidly absorbed, high — glycemic index carbohydrate foods further impairs medial temporal lobe function, with food - induced increases in oxidative stress and cytokine release likely explaining the association between food ingestion and reduction in cognitive function in those with type 2 diabetes (1).»

Whole grain pasta is an easy way to get complex carbohydrates that slowly release energy so there isn't a quick energy surge followed by an inevitable crash.

Vitamin B5 - Pantothenic acid is used by the body to aid in the release of energy as well as assist in the metabolizing of fat, protein and carbohydrates.

When ingested, carbohydrates cause the body to respond by releasing insulin into the blood stream — a hormone responsible for shuttling the broken down carbohydrates (which break into molecules of sugar) into the cells to be used for energy production (immediate or stored energy depending on what the body needs at the time).

Protein combined with carbohydrate stimulates a greater release of insulin, which promotes faster uptake of glucose by the muscle cells and faster glycogen storage.

If carbohydrates are removed from the diet or drastically lowered, the insulin levels begin to fall, eventually falling to the point where fat is no longer trapped in fat cells and is released into the blood to be available to be used by the body for fuel.

When glucose levels rise, the body responds to the low carbohydrate diet by releasing a hormone called insulin into the blood.

Insulin is a hormone that is released by the pancreas to clear and transport sugars (carbohydrates) from the blood and into cells.

Everything from not releasing the appetite suppressing hormone to not properly storing or using carbohydrates in the body can be caused by lack of sleep.

When cats eat a high protein, low carbohydrate diet, satiety is reached sooner and glucose is released more slowly by the transformation of protein to glucose (gluconeogenesis).

Omnivores, carnivores, and cats in particular, are harmed by refined sugars and those derived from high glycemic index carbohydrates that the body converts into sugars, which then trigger insulin release and storage of the calories from sugars as fat.
