  1. #Sugar may have been a key ingredient in #human #evolution
    #Fruits, not just #meat, may have fueled #brain growth in our #primate cousins and human ancestors
    A new analysis of existing data from human ancestors, as well as #chimps, suggests that a large proportion of that energy probably came from sugary foods like fruits and #honey. These simple #carbohydrates may have played an important, overlooked role in humankind’s evolutionary story.

  5. Medical technology is amazing, but it works only to a certain point. With modern an on a closed loop is actually a reliable device, and one that rarely tries to kill you! (Previous pumps were also great - you just had to factor in the mental exhaustion of a vital device that tries to kill you 2 or 3 times a month.)

    So now everything is solved: a pump that measures blood-sugar levels every 5 minutes, and compensates by giving higher or lower "basal" rates of insulin. Before every meal you approximate the amount of you will eat and "bolus" appropriately. Even if you get it wrong - compensation will fix it. And this really is cool.

    But... At best you've transformed a large medical issue into a medium plumbing issue. What could possibly go wrong?

    For starters...

    1. The pump needs a battery. When the battery goes low you need to replace it. Unfortunately many of the pumps I've used will alert to a low battery after several _days_ of failing to give enough basal insulin. (#YMMV)
    2. The insulin goes into your body through a : a small pipe you stick in. As soon as you stick something into your body the immune system starts coating it with . This gunk impedes the flow. You need to replace the canula every few days. Naturally there is no indication whether the canula is blocked or something else is wrong.
    3. Insulin keeps 3-7 days outside the refrigerator, depending on temperature and luck. After a while its effects lessens. Naturally there is no indication whether the insulin is too old or something else is wrong.
    4. If your pump is not directly attached, you have a short (60-80cm) pipe between the pump and your body. The primary function of a doorknob or the corners of a table is to catch that pipe when you're going too fast.
    5. It gets hot in . Also in and . Having something stuck to your body for days at a time gets itchy.
    6. Sure, you can move that sticker. Now over a period of years your skin develops tougher tissue - making it unusable for further attachments for many months. If you don't have enough fat, you run out of locations.

    Pumps are great - really they are! But even with them can be exhausting.

  12. If you stop sweetening what you eat and drink you soon stop craving sweetness e.g. sweetened coffee tastes disgusting to me since I got used to drink it without sugar or sweeteners.
    Carbohydrate intake control is, at least to me, far more difficult and has just as big an effect on blood glucose levels.
    Getting the balance right is a daily struggle for diabetics.

  15. 🦷🍭 While #sugar is often blamed for cavities, it's actually the lactic acid produced by #bacteria as they digest #carbohydrates that weakens enamel.

    Human saliva typically neutralizes these #acids within 30 mins. but frequent snacking can keep mouth pH levels low enough to cause permanent damage. Experts recommend waiting at least 20 mins. after eating before brushing to allow enamel to re-harden.

  34. How do carbohydrates improve performance?

    In another study by scientist Colombani, who studied 16,000 articles on the effect of carbohydrates on improving performance.
    The fact is that drugs such as gainers contain easily digestible carbohydrates in large quantities. It turned out that 50% of these studies showed no improvement in performance, and the remaining 50% showed a slight improvement in performance by 1-13%.
