NAC Supports Visceral Fat Metabolism and Insulin Sensitivity in Obesity

Visceral fat, the abdominal fat that accumulates around organs, is metabolically active. In obesity, visceral fat can cause oxidative stress that can lead to DNA damage that then contributes to cell senescence and inflammation. Senescent cells are old or damaged cells that instead of dying and being cleared by the immune system stay behind and cause harm by secreting inflammatory cytokines and other nasty chemicals. One of the most frequently used biomarkers for senescent cell detection is senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal); p16 gene expression is another biomarker for senescence.

In this current RCT, 40 obese adults (20 in each group) waiting for bariatric surgery were assigned to either 600 mg N-acetylcysteine (NAC) or placebo daily for four weeks prior to surgery. During surgery visceral fat samples were collected and tested for p16 gene expression and SA-β-gal activity. Blood biomarkers were tested before and after the intervention, including three inflammatory markers interleukin-6 (IL-6), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), as well as the glucose metabolism markers fasting glucose, insulin sensitivity (HOMA-IR), and insulin. Total cholesterol, LDL- and HDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides were also tested before and after. Anthropometric measurements of waist circumference, weight, and body mass index were assessed at the beginning and end of the study.

NAC intervention significantly decreased both SA-β-gal activity and p16 gene expression. Blood levels of IL-6, hs-CRP, fasting glucose, and insulin, along with calculations of insulin resistance were significantly reduced in the NAC group compared to placebo. No changes in lipids or anthropometric measurements were noted.

Winter is a good time to let your toenails breath and get exposed to light.  It’s important to give your nails a break from polish, says foot specialist Joy Rowland, DPM.  The danger with keeping your nail polish on too long is that the pigment in the nail polish can soak into the top few layers of the nail and dry it out, Dr. Rowland says.

When that happens, fungus, yeast, bacteria, mold and mildew can develop underneath the nail plate, which can lead to long-term problems. The nail plate is the hard part of the nail that appears on top of the skin.  I personally take a break from pedicures in the wintertime, so my nail beds get a break from being constantly covered in layers of nail polish.  JES Organics foot balm is a great way to keep your feet soft and prevent and/or treat dry skin and cracking.  I use it even when getting pedicures to keep my feet soft in between appointments but it is especially important during the wintertime when I take a break from pedicures.

Delicious Keto Butter Pecan Ice Cream

Amazing Keto Butter Pecan Ice Cream

After searching online for a keto butter pecan ice cream recipe, wasting all of the ingredients and my time making it and then to have an ice cream that was mediocre at best, I decided to try my hand at making up a recipe myself.  I have to say that I did not have high hopes that it would taste like my favorite store-bought ice cream.  But OMG, this recipe is absolutely delicious and even better because it does not have all of the artificial flavors, chemicals and junk.  And it's Keto too!   How much better can it get!  

Recipe Ingredients:

6 TBSP of Butter

1/2 cup of finely chopped pecans

2 cups of Heavy Whipping Cream 

1 cup of unsweetened almond milk 

3/4 cup of Allulose ***

1/8 tsp. of Sea Salt

1 tsp. of Vanilla Extract

Directions:

Melt 6 TBSP of butter into a saucepan.  

Add 1/2 cup of finely chopped pecans into the saucepan of melted butter.  Bring butter and pecans to a rolling boil until butter begins to brown - approximately 3-5 minutes.  This will give the butter a nice caramelization.  Note: Turn down heat to where it will still be boiling.  Avoid burning the butter as burnt pecans/butter is not a pleasant taste!  I have found that on an electric stovetop that 3 minutes is about right.  Put it aside and allow it to cool.  

Set up ice cream maker except for the freezer bowl (bring that out of the freezer after all ingredients prepared together)

Whisk allulose and sea salt together in a mixing bowl or large Pyrex container

Add Almond milk, whipping cream and vanilla extract.  Add in the melted butter/pecan mixture.  

Whisk together until well combined.  

Bring the ice cream freezer bowl out of the freezer and place in the machine per the manufacturer instructions.  Note: it can take at least several days for the container to be fully frozen.  If not fully frozen, then the ice cream consistency will be soupy.  You can check by shaking the container to listen for any signs of water moving around inside.  

Turn on the ice cream maker and pour the ice cream mix into the freezer bowl of the machine.   Follow the manufacturer instructions for how long to keep machine running.  Typically, it is about 25-35 minutes.  If you see the ice cream getting to the top of the machine, probably a good time to turn off the machine.  After the ice cream is finished, just pop in the freezer inside an airtight plastic container and ENJOY!!  The ice cream will get harder after being in the freezer a day or two, otherwise it is more the consistency of a softer serve ice cream.  Either way, it is delicious!

Allulose *** I use the People's Keto Company Keto Sweetener called Allulose Plus

Ice Cream Maker:  I have a 2-quart Cuisinart ice cream machine.

Science

Seven studies done between 2010 and 2015 confirm that the Aeon patches produce a relaxation effect within as little as 20 minutes after patch placement. The patches do this by positively affecting the autonomic nervous system and increasing dopamine production.

The science of phototherapy, which has been around for about 100 years, uses light to improve the health of the body. And modern forms of phototherapy such as Low-Level Laser Therapy, which helps reduce wrinkles in the skin, are very well understood scientifically.

How Our Phototherapy Patches Work

Your body emits heat in the form of infrared light. Our patches are designed to trap this infrared light when placed on the body, which causes them to reflect particular wavelengths of light. This process stimulates specific points on the skin that signal the body to produce health benefits unique to each LifeWave patch.
