    Protein Isn't Actually Protein

Let me clear something up. A protein is not really protein. Here’s what I mean. Serenity Products: https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/ACC99AE8-4A45-45BF-845C-B8D7E815923D 0:00 Introduction: Protein is not protein 0:14 Protein RDAs 2:40 Foods rich in protein 2:57 Protein explained 7:46 Protein for kids 8:58 Learn more about protein! Today, I want to clear up some confusion around protein. Typically, the minimum amount of protein a person needs is 50 grams. You might think that if you consume a beef steak that’s 100 grams or 3.5 ounces, you’re getting double the amount of protein you need for the day. However, there is a difference between the weight of a steak and the amount of protein in the steak. For example, a steak that weighs 100 grams only contains 26 grams of protein. This is because steak also contains fat and water. Proteins also vary in amino acids. We don’t even really have a daily requirement for protein—we actually have a daily requirement for amino acids in the protein. The problem lies in the quality of protein or the bioavailable acids in the food you eat. While some plants have protein, animal sources are a better option for protein than plant sources. Also, know that many infant formulas and foods for toddlers are loaded with soy protein and other plant proteins that can cause problems with digestion. Foods high in protein: 1. Breast milk 2. Eggs 3. Meat 4. Chicken 5. Dairy Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 58, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

    The Initial Warning Sign (DON'T IGNORE)

    Spotting the early signs of dementia is crucial. Learn more about dementia prevention and find out about one surprising early stage of dementia most people don’t know about. You’d never guess that this could be an early sign of dementia! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) 0:00 Introduction: Early warning signs of dementia 0:42 The earliest sign of dementia 1:18 Amyloid beta plaquing in the early stages of dementia 1:51 Brain health and Alzheimer’s disease 2:20 Why do people die from dementia? 2:55 How to prevent dementia 4:05 Alcohol and dementia prevention 5:38 The best diet to prevent dementia Amyloid Beta Plaquing Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20550...

DATA: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science... https://www.nia.nih.gov/news/changes-...https://alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wi... https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/s... Surprisingly, one of the earliest signs of dementia involves the retina. There is a high correlation between problems in the retina and problems in the brain. Problems with night vision or central vision, floaters, and light sensitivity issues are the earliest signs of dementia. Some people develop amyloid-beta plaquing on the retina and may experience problems differentiating shades of grey and other colors. Researchers have found high levels of microbes, typically found in the mouth, in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients. When people die from dementia, it’s usually caused by an infection such as a UTI or lung infection. For some people, surgery can be too much on the body and lead to death. Some people with dementia have a slow, progressive degeneration of the brain to the point they’re bedridden and stop eating and drinking, which ultimately leads to death. Focus on cleaning your brain and reducing inflammation for dementia prevention. The glymphatic system cleans the brain, mainly at night, which is one of the primary purposes of sleep. This system removes malformed proteins and plaquing and rejuvenates the brain. Anything that inhibits sleeping may increase your risk for Alzheimer’s, heart attacks, strokes, cancer, blood sugar issues, and type 2 diabetes. Sleep apnea can also be problematic. You need 8 to 9 hours of sleep! Alcohol significantly interferes with REM sleep and is very damaging to brain health. To prevent Alzheimer’s, you must flood the brain with oxygen. Exercise is one of the best ways to do this! Exercise stimulates the growth of brain cells and the hormone BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor). Adequate sun exposure and high amounts of vitamin D can help support healthy sleep. A diet high in sugar and carbohydrates can starve your neurons. Brain cells love ketones! To get into ketosis, you must lower your carbohydrate intake. If you have any early signs of dementia, try taking ketones as a supplement or MCT oil. Niacin may also be helpful. Take 50 mg daily, slowly increasing to 500 mg per day. Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 59, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.
