The last week of Shake Up November is upon us. If you will recall; my intentions in creating this challenge was to shed some light on whether or not breakfast is really the most important meal of the day, the difference between “shaking it up” and juicing, the nutritional breakdown of a typical American breakfast, to share recipes and encourage you all to get some quality nutrition in your bellies to start your day off strong, and to create an eBook with shake recipes – But…there’s still one topic I’d like to cover. Intermittent Fasting and whether or not it’s right for you.Last week Monday I wrote about how, what, and when we eat has an affect on our hormones; which can directly affect how efficiently our metabolism is working.

The Impact of Nutrition on Autoimmune Disease – Part 3 8 Comments Thursday, November 7th, 2013 Written by: Matt Baran-MickleBe sure to check out Part 1 and Part 2Metabolism and ImmunityThe obesity epidemic is widely recognized, and while the precise causes are not entirely clear, the presence of excessive nutrient intake and subsequent systemic metabolic dysfunction is not controversial. Obesity is frequently accompanied by a variety of conditions that are collectively referred to as the metabolic syndrome, including high plasma glucose, high plasma fatty acids/triglycerides, hypertension, and insulin resistance; immunological alterations in obesity are increasingly recognized as well, and the presence of chronic inflammation is a hallmark of the condition.(image: Kanneganti & Dixit, 2012)These immunological alterations are quite pronounced, and include the accumulation of activated lymphocytes and innate cells in obese fat tissue, and a depletion of Treg cells, as well as mucosal barrier disruption and dysbiosis. Recent work has begun to unravel the interrelation of immunity and metabolism, and provides some intriguing evidence for our developing understanding of autoimmune disease.Like every other cell, leukocytes require energy and metabolic substrate to maintain normal cellular function, and to divide and proliferate.

Paleo, It’s For Dogs Too! 9 Comments Monday, September 16th, 2013 Written by: David LewisThank you for all of your hard work.Two years ago, my girlfriend’s dog used to be quite lame – he’s a Rottweiler/Mastiff/and probably several other breeds rolled into one. Anyway, for most of his life, he ate the standard dog chow from the grocery store. You know the kind – the pellets of wheat, corn, and whatever else gets thrown away as garbage from factories.When I met her, he was on his last legs

Tabata training is intense: So if you don’t have the guts to do it on your own, find someone to suffer next to you. Trust me that’ll keep you going, if you’d have long surrendered if you had trained alone. Some gyms even offer special courses. Most of you will probably be familiar with the ultra-short + ultra-intense HIIT prescription that’s known as the Tabata protocol. Not really?

Circuit vs. Classic Strength Training, Which System is More …

When you build a circuit training routine, don’t forget: There are lot’s of metabolically demanding kettle- bell exercises to spice things up. There are probably a dozen of reasons why people train. Many of them are really good: Wanting to stay healthy, to live longer, or to excel in your sports. Of others, however, I am not so sure whether they are actually worth pursuing, or do you think training to look like a walking stick to make it to the catwalk was a “good” motivation to go to the gym? Personally I don’t think so and that’s partly why I am hesitant to judge a workout by the amount of energy it may burn.

Semantics: The study or science of meaning in language, the study of the meaning of words. We argue A LOT about nutrition, metabolism, and weight loss. To be honest, often times I feel like this is pretty much all we do.On occasion these arguments are actually worthwhile debates that further our understanding of how the human body works. Unfortunately, MOST of the time these arguments are ones of proxy and semantics – essentially arguing the exact same point, but differing on the definition of terms.
