Antibiotics in herds no longer used for growth are now used prophylactically...

http://www.beuc.eu/publications/beuc-x-2014-043_pca_beuc_position_paper_on_antibiotic_resistance.pdf

"Antibiotics should be used to treat existing infections. Individual treatment should always be the norm and herd treatment the exception."

"In France 60% of rural veterinarians’ total turnover comes from antibiotics sales. Self-regulation is not compatible with the responsible use of antibiotics, especially as pharmaceutical laboratories can grant discounts depending on the quantity ordered ."

Eventually cattle are treated like humans. The former because of growth potential of antibiotics the second because of "free" medicine and consuming habits.

For french speaking people:

POUR LE DOSAGE DE L'SANGUIN :

  • Prélèvement de sang veineux, au pli du coude en général. Le tube de prélèvement peut éventuellement contenir un anticoagulant.
  • Pas de conditions particulières.

POUR LE DOSAGE URINAIRE :

Recueil des urines de 24 heures dans un récipient permettant une mesure facile du volume émis (diurèse). Il est souvent associé à un dosage de l'urée dans le sang.

Valeurs normales de l'urée dans le sang

  • Homme : 3 à 8,33 mmol/l soit 0.18 à 0.50 g/l
  • Femme : 2.5 à 8.33 mmol/l soit 0.15 à 0.50 g/l

Valeurs normales de l'urée dans les urines

  • Nouveau-né et nourrisson : 2,5 à 66 mmol/24 h soit 0,15 à 4 g/24 h
  • Enfant jusqu'à 15 ans : 66 à 330 mmol/24 h  soit 4 à 20 g/24 h
  • Adulte : 250 - 580 mmol / 24 h   soit 15 - 35 g / 24 h

Variations physiologiques de l'urée

  • Âge : nourrisson connaissent une baisse de -30% ; adultes>55ans, une hausse de +20 %
  • Sexe : homme/femme +5%
  • Grossesse : baisse ente 30 et 60%
  • Régime hyperprotidique : hausse entre 50 et 80%
  • Jeûne prolongé : forte baisse

From Cell Metabolism paper to your plate: near fasting protocol on 5 days

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2015/06/22/heres-how-a-five-day-diet-that-mimics-fasting-may-reboot-the-body-and-reduce-cancer-risk/

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/lifestyle/wellbeing/diet/11686002/Why-weve-all-been-doing-the-Fast-Diet-wrong.html

Those who read this blog will not be surprised...

If you want to regenerate you have to induce a metabolic stress which mimics our evolutionary past.
Get the protein first or the big salad first but after the two you will be full...
Greens, raw that means salads, with tomatoes, onions, basil, cucumber and red pepper.
Then a steak like bavette (flank steak) or onglet (hanger steak) raw or rare with grain mustard.
At dinner bone broth, soup with mushrooms and fat, lot of fats not refined, not heated, not transformed.
Olive and avocados instead of refined olive oil...
Coconut,
Almonds and other nuts.
Fat meat from lamb, bone marrow, fatty fishes.
According to your metabolism and genomics I advise you to eat some tubers if you do any sport and seasonal raw fruit.
What about dairy?
No lactose so either butter raw from grass fed cattle or completely fermented cheeses. Another time you have to test your results with this amount of dairy.

The way they advocate to do near fasting is interesting especially for people who would not to stop exercise.

Unnecessary antibiotics could have long term side effects

Summary

Acquisition of the intestinal microbiota begins at birth, and a stable microbial community develops from a succession of key organisms. Disruption of the microbiota during maturation by low-dose antibiotic exposure can alter host metabolism and adiposity. We now show that low-dose penicillin (LDP), delivered from birth, induces metabolic alterations and affects ileal expression of genes involved in immunity. LDP that is limited to early life transiently perturbs the microbiota, which is sufficient to induce sustained effects on body composition, indicating that microbiota interactions in infancy may be critical determinants of long-term host metabolic effects. In addition, LDP enhances the effect of high-fat diet induced obesity. The growth promotion phenotype is transferrable to germ-free hosts by LDP-selected microbiota, showing that the altered microbiota, not antibiotics per se, play a causal role. These studies characterize important variables in early-life microbe-host metabolic interaction and identify several taxa consistently linked with metabolic alterations.

Is nutritional epidemiology fake science?

An example of the lack of science in nutritional epidemiological data





Most dietary data is based on people recalling what they ate. This has allowed for dietary guidelines to be formed, but there's a small problem: the data could be wildly inaccurate, and dietary guidelines completely wrong.

We are not what we eat except for essential nutrients!
For the others we are what our body and especially our liver transform from our diet.
So what we eat matter because every nutrient sends a signal to our body and deeply to our genomics.

The prescription of daily activity

http://m.bjsm.bmj.com/content/early/2015/04/23/bjsports-2015-094618.full.pdf



Proportion of weekly waking hours spent in activity modes, ranging from time spent sitting through to vigorous physical activity (adapted from Townsend et al).18,66 Values R, 1, 2, 3 and 4 represent behavioural “gears” synonymous to a car, where R = “reverse”, 1 and 2 = light activities within daily living, 3 and 4 are moderate to vigorous activities either in daily life or as part of leisure-time pursuits, exercise and sport. Many health promotion and physical activity interventions aim to change people's behaviour by attempting to go from R to 3rd gear, missing targeted interventions in 1st and 2nd gear and thus resulting in behavioural “stalling” (relapse), as would occur in a car if one attempted to go from Reverse into 3rd or 4th gear. Avoiding sedentary behaviour at work fulfils engaging people in activity at gears 1 and 2.

Carbobesity: central storage

Fat vs Skinny Man

Central obesity means that fat is stored in your abdomen around the organs.

Fiber and the tricky count of carbs on labels

FUN FACT: FIBER CAN LOWER YOUR CHOLESTEROL!

This one is a little confusing. Fiber, specifically soluble fiber, reduces the bile that is reabsorbed in the GI tract. Bile is a substance produced by the liver and excreted by the gallbladder that helps us absorb dietary fats. Bile is made in the liver using cholesterol. It is stored in the gallbladder and released when there is fat in the GI tract to be absorbed. Dietary fiber prevents the re-absorption of bile in the GI tract (we can re-use bile so we don’t have to keep making it), causing it to be excreted in our fecal matter. The liver is forced to use the cholesterol in our blood to produce more bile, thus decreasing our overall blood cholesterol.
