*IMPORTANT info for those struggling to lose weight. Your doctor won't tell you this -- and this may be the most important thing you read today* Yesterday I posted reports revealing how Glyphosate (active ingredient in cancer causing Round-up) replaces the amino acid Glycine in your metabolic processes, causing them to fail. This leads to all kinds of diseases including cancer, Alzheimers, Parkinsons, etc. Read it here: https://poal.co/s/health/566113 WHAT IS GLYCINE? Glycine is a simple amino acid that is required to run many of your most critical metabolic processes. It's involved in DNA synthesis, protein synthesis and the methylation process that dictates how you age. It also serves as an important calming neurotransmitter by increasing GABA in the brain. Glycine comes mainly from meat sources, with the highest dietary amount coming from the skin, ligaments and bone marrow of animals. Modern diets however have reduced Glycine consumption since we no longer eat all parts of the animal. GLYCINE & INSULIN RESISTANCE Researchers have found that people who are obese, diabetic and those with insulin resistance have very low levels of Glycine in their blood. What causes this? Well, scientists don't yet know -- there is much debate as to whether it's a cause of obesity and type 2 diabetes or merely a marker. (I personally think that Glyphosate in our food is causing this in large part by blocking the body's ability to use Glycine.) In any event, scientists know that low Glycine is associated with the inability to lose weight. One reason is that Glycine plays a key role in your body's production of human growth hormone, which is essential for building muscle and lean body mass. Body builders know that creatinine is key for building muscle and glycine is needed for your body to make creatinine. *Keep in mind that insulin is the fat storage hormone. When you are insulin resistant and your insulin levels remain high, EVERYTHING you eat is stored as fat. It is critical to break insulin resistance in order to lose weight.* GLYCINE & DETOXIFICATION Glycine also plays an important role in detoxification of your body and removal of cellular "junk" . Your body needs Glycine to make Glutathione, your body's master anti-oxidant. GLYCINE: KEY TO WEIGHT LOSS? Researchers know that increase in Glycine plasma levels improves insulin resistance (metabolic syndrome) and helps with weight loss. It does this in part by improving your metabolism, increasing human growth hormone and increasing GLP1. GLP1 is the hormone your body releases to signal your brain to stop eating. In fact, new diabetes drugs help you lose weight by increasing GLP1 -- and the cost of these new drugs can range as high a $800-$1,300 a month. So how do you achieve better Glycine levels? First, eliminate Glyphosate from your food sources (cleaning and/or buying organic produce). Cut out processed foods that contain high levels of Glyphosate. You can also up your intake of Glycine via supplementation or adding foods such as bone broth, which is high in Glycine. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35013990/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/pmc9091448/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7376793/
