SuppVersity - Nutrition and Exercise Science for Everyone

The (ill) health effects of choline and its pre-cursor l-carnitine in animal products like eggs or (red) meats are probably mediated by a diet devoid of prebiotics... however, simply pounding more resistant starches, for example, seems to do more harm than good. If you have been following the SuppVersity  News on Facebook ( a must , btw ;-)), you will be aware of the "TMAO"-issue. If not, here's the gist: The ingestion of certain dietary nutrients - primarily choline, phosphatidylcholine, and its precursor l-carnitine can serve as a precursor for the ultimate generation of an atherogenic metabolite, trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO). TMAO, in turn, has been linked to all sorts of diseases, most prominently cardiovascular disease and the formation of atherosclerotic plaque. Unlike "fish odor disease", the choline/CVD link is unrelated to  your genes : DNA-Fit: Train Acc. to 'ur Genes Is Laziness Built Into 'ur Genes? Keep Muscle While Dieting...

Still throwing away the yolks? Bad idea... even your gains would benefit from the very part of the egg where most of the nutritional value is hidden. You will have read it in the Facebook News  already (if you didn't subscribe, yet, I can only recommend you head over to facebook.com/suppversity right away): whole eggs build more muscle than egg whites. If that's true, generations of bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts have literally  thrown away their gains by separating and trashing the yolks of their beloved (? how one can love egg-whites, only is beyond me, anyway ?) egg- whites . In view of the fact that eggs have always been one of  SuppVersity Readers' Favorites  I thought: why shall I stick to only one egg study? Let's check out what else the egg-o-logy has to offer, these days... Whole eggs are also an excellent source of dietary protein Yolk: Triglyceride & LDL ↓, HDL ↑ Eggs Boost Vit Uptake 3-4-fold Egg-o-logy - All About Eggs Eg...

There are 1bn ways to prepare your eggs and the Internet is a rich source of recipes. You will probably remember the SuppVersity news about the pro-anabolic effects of eggs - whole eggs - from the other day. Now, "gainz" are nice, but as a recent study from the  University of Alabama at Birmingham  indicates (Goss 2017), they are also a highly useful diet food. In their recent experimental trial, Amy Miskimon Goss and colleagues investigated the effects of whole eggs, being consumed as part of a low carb diet on the diet-induced changes in body composition, body fat distribution and selected health parameters in aging men and women.

Don't miss out on a long-neglected superfood. With the latest study from the University of Connecticut  the evidence of beneficial (heart-)health effects of increased egg consumption keep accumulating - and this time, we are up to three eggs per day in healthy subjects. The latest study from the  University of Connecticut  adds to the previously discussed health benefits of eggs . Starting with the important and scientifically warranted premise that HDL function may be more important than HDL concentration in determining risk for cardiovascular disease, the authors Diana M DiMarco, Gregory H Norris, Courtney L Millar, Christopher N Blesso, and Maria Luz Fernandez conducted a study to confirm and quantify the previously observed increases in HDL and LDL particle size, LCATactivity, and plasma apoAII and carotenoid concentrations in unhealthy populations, in a group of 40 men and women 40 men and women [age 18–30 y, BMI (in kg/m²) 18.5–29.9] who were - hopefully just li...
