El Alga Mágica http://antiageinglifestyle.com/general/%c2%bfa-que-no-conocias-el-fucoidan http://antiageinglifestyle.com/general/%c2%bfa-que-no-conocias-el-fucoidan#comments Mon, 09 Nov 2009 16:18:21 +0000 Christophe http://antiageinglifestyle.com/?p=38 El fucoi…qué?

Fucoidan

El fucoidan proviene de las algas pardas (Laminaria Japonica) y es un complejo polisacárido sulfatado.
¿Y para que sirve?
Interacciona y modula el sistema inmune, mejorando la comunicación intercelular.

Ahora bien, en serio, ¿para qué sirve?

Si tecleas fucoidan en Google, te saldrán páginas y páginas de estudios y referencia sobre el fucoidan. Parece el alga mágica.
Lo que a mí me llamó la atención, es que vi un reportaje sobre los Japoneses de la isla de Okinoa, aquellos que tienen la esperance de vida más larga de mundo y, según dicen, esto se debe a la ingestión masiva de fucoidan.

Bueno, obviamente es difícil comprobar si gracias a esta sustancia por a vivir hasta los 100 años y más pero después de unas de semanas, os puedo asegurar que ha tenido dos efectos medibles sobre mi organismo.

PRIMERO, no he sufrido ningún catarro desde que estoy tomando fucoidan. No prueba nada me dirás ya que mucha gente no sufre catarros y tampoco toma fucoidan. Cierto pero en mi caso es diferente por sufro un problema de reflujo gástrico debido a mi cardio que cierra mal, lo cual me irrita la garganta y la vuelve vulnerable a los ataques bacteriológico y víricos. En conclusión, sufro de faríngitis crónica y siempre tengo catarros.

SEGUNDO, mi psoriasis ha bajado mucho de intensidad. No es que tuviese una psoriasis galopante y sangrienta, pero sin tengo unas manchitas de piel enrojecida en los brazos. Como soy muy fisno, hago lo posible para que se vayan, incluso he probado la medicina china sin resultados. Bueno, desde que tomo fucoidan, no han desaparecido las manchas por completo, pero si que ha disminuido considerablemente la intensidad del rojo y se forma una capita blanquita que casi desaparece con crema hidratante.

Estoy es todo lo que he notado pero según los expertos, tendría además las propiedades siguientes:

1.Fortalece el sistema inmune
2.Ayuda a combatir alergias
3.Puede mejorar la coagulación sanguínea
4.Promueve el buen flujo de sangre
5.Ayuda a estabilizar el nivel de azúcar
6.Alivio de síntomas estomacales.
7.Mejora la función del hígado= Mejor desintoxicación.

Me either.

That’s why I was so excited about the Nobel Prize winners
for medicine in 2009. You see, they have discovered
something that changes the way we look at aging. It all
deals with something called telomeres.

What are your telomeres?

Well, I asked Dr. Al Sears, board-certified anti-aging
doctor, to give us the details. Here’s what he says…

Telomeres are genetic “caps” over the ends of your
chromosomes. Each time your cells divide, your telomeres
get shorter. And when your telomeres run down, cell
division stops and your life ends. Never before has it been
possible to reverse this process.

But, for the first time ever, we have the ability to activate
the enzyme that rebuilds your telomeres. This enzyme is
called telomerase. It’s in every cell of your body but is often
turned off. Telomerase makes your telomeres longer. That
means your cells could actually get younger as time goes by.

Simply said, telomerase turns back the hands of time.

Now, most doctors had never heard of it before the Nobel Prize
announcements.

A group of scientists stumbled upon it just ten years ago.
They watched in awe as generation after generation of cells
multiplied…without aging.

As one top researcher put it in a Harvard report, “with this
switch turned on, these cells become ‘immortalized’.”

Until very recently, no one knew how to activate it. Today
they do.

For the first time ever, you can slow down and even
reverse aging.

About Fats: Some Key Facts

2009 October 10

by Christophe Schwoertzig  (with the contribution of his friend, firöstur Olaf Sigurjónsson)

  • Eating fat does not make you fat.  Its your body’s response to excess carbohydrates in you diet that makes you fat. Your body has a limited capacity to store excess carbohydrates, but it can easily convert those excess carbohydrates into excess body fat. (You fatten the cattle by feeding them with grain (corn) – pasta and bread.).
  • Weight loss has little to do with will power. You need information, not will power. If you change what you eat, you don’t have to be overly concerned about how much you eat.
  • Food can be good or bad. The ratio of macronutrients – protein, carbohydrate, and fat – in the meals you eat is the key to permanent weight loss and optimal health.
  • The biochemical effect of food has been constant for the last forty million years.  The response to food has been genetically conserved throughout the years. And is unlikely to change in near future.
  • There is a big difference between weight loss and fat loss. Obesity is not simply weight gain. It’s the accumulation of excess body fat.
  • The fact is that every time you eat the macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fat) it generates complex hormonal responses in your body. These responses ultimately determine how much body fat you will store. In terms of weight loss, knowing how to control these responses is the real power of nutrition.
  • Despite eating less fat, people are fatter than ever. Why? Because fat does not make you fat, insulin does. There are two ways to increase insulin – eat too much food at any one meal or eat too many carbohydrates. Some do both simultaneously.
  • Eating fat doesn’t make you fat, as long it’s the right type of fat. Monounsaturated fat has no effect on insulin. On the other hand, saturated fat can increase insulin level by causing the condition known as insulin resistance.   The favorable diet is rich in monounsaturated fat and is designed to generate the production of good eicosanoids, both of which will moderate insulin levels. However if you’re eating too many carbohydrates, adding any type of fat is a real prescription for rapid fat gain.
  • Athletes perform better on high fat diet than on a high carbohydrate diet. Eating a high carbohydrate diet is a guarantee that athletes will never reach their full genetic performance potential. The hormonal consequences elevated insulin and the resulting overproduction of bad eicosanoids impact negatively on athletic performance and training.
  • Exercise alone will rarely overcome the negative effects of a high carbohydrate diet. The food you eat is your main ticket to get and stay in a healthy shape and increase your quality of life.
  • For cardiovascular people, a high carbohydrate diet may be hazardous to their health. Almost by definition, cardiovascular people suffer from elevated insulin levels. A high carbohydrate diet, especially for those patients with a genetically elevated insulin response to carbohydrates can only increase insulin levels and elevated insulin is the greatest predictor of the likelihood of a heart attack.
  • Food may be the most powerful drug you will ever take. Hormones are hundreds of times stronger than drugs. Every time you eat, you start a hormonal cascade. Either you control it or for the next four to six hours it controls you.
  • The quality of your life is controlled by the favorite diet. Less excess body fat, greater mental productivity, better physical performance, and a decreased likelihood of chronic diseases are the essence of a better quality of life. These are also the results of the favorite diet.
