Perhaps the most common misconception is that  it’s a consequence of carbohydrate overconsumption. Perhaps the most straightforward proof that diabetes is not a result of carbohydrate consumption is the fact that humans consumed significantly more carbohydrates in previous centuries without triggering anything close to the diabetes epidemic our world faces today. Clearly, the fact that diabetes was practically nonexistent before the 1950s but has exponentially propagated in just a few decades indicates that it constitutes a much more complex metabolic dysfunction that is inextricably linked to our modern way of life. This […] - [Inflammation: A tightly regulated biological response that, if uncontrolled, can turn out fateful](https://pnoe.com/blog/weight_management/inflammation-a-tightly-regulated-biological-response-that-if-uncontrolled-can-turn-out-fateful/): Over the last decade, there has been much discussion about inflammation and whether there is such a thing as chronic inflammation, as well as anti-inflammatory agents in terms of food and botanical constituents that could effectively battle it. It seems that it all adds up since chronic inflammation does exist and is at its peak rate, probably due to the contemporary lifestyle. In this post, topics such as what inflammation is as a biological process and what may cause it, its relation to lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, and environmental chemicals, as well as its implication with chronic severe […] - [Semaglutide, the magic pill against obesity: Truth or fallacy?](https://pnoe.com/blog/weight_management/semaglutide-the-magic-pill-against-obesity-truth-or-fallacy/):   Obesity is a highly prevalent, multifactorial, chronic, relapsing disease that affects 650 million adults globally, translating into approximately 30% of men and 35% of women. Obesity requires long-term management and is associated with several physical and mental health complications.

The term stimulants covers a broad class of substances directly affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Many individuals use these drugs for various reasons, including performance enhancement, medical benefits, and recreational purposes. They may be legal or illegal. Since one of the primary mechanisms through which stimulants exert their effects is increased blood flow and heart rate, cardiac dysfunction is one of the main concerns associated with their use, along with other adverse […] - [Dietary Carbohydrates: Catalysts of physical performance and regulators of overall health](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/dietary-carbohydrates-catalysts-of-physical-performance-and-regulators-of-overall-health/): Over the years, social media has fostered a negative view towards carbohydrate (CHO) consumption, advocating that dietary patterns aiming at weight loss should limit or even exclude carbohydrates. These beliefs intensify the debate about the dietary intake of the three primary energy sources (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) during rest and physical activity. Individuals derive about half of their daily energy requirements from carbohydrates on average. However, food abundance and easy accessibility have led to excess carbohydrate intake, particularly plain sugars, placing a significant metabolic burden on the body. Therefore, being mindful of carbohydrates’ quantity, quality, and distribution throughout the day […] - [Weight Loss Shots: The Last Mirage.](https://pnoe.com/blog/weight_management/weight-loss-shots-the-last-mirage/):   Introduction For good reason, weight loss shots have upended the weight loss and pharmaceutical market. For the first time since the beginning of the obesity epidemic sometime in the 1970s, there is hope that we have found the miracle drug, one that you can take and shed off excess weight, the root cause of nearly every chronic disease plaguing our society, economy, and mental health. Such has been their popularity that major grocery retailers have reported a drop in food sales, likely because people are eating less. Moreover, the weight loss induced by these drugs has also proven its […] - [Dietary fat: An essential dietary component rather than the root of all nutritional health issues](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/dietary-fat-an-essential-dietary-component-rather-than-the-root-of-all-nutritional-health-issues/): Over the last three decades, there has been a great revolution against fat due to its suspected association with several nutritional health issues, especially cardiovascular disease. There was a tremendous amount of evidence that indicated dietary cholesterol and saturated fat as the main culprits of cardiovascular disease, thus morbidity and mortality. It was when all the low-fat and no-fat dairy products started to launch, promising even complete substitution of the cholesterol-lowering heart medication if these products were exclusively consumed.  Let’s start from the beginning. Dietary fat intake can vary significantly and still meet energy and nutrient needs. International guidelines suggest […] - [Predicting Medical Costs with VO2max](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/predicting-medical-costs-with-vo2max/): The rampant chronic disease epidemic and the resulting surge in medical expenses is one of the most dire problems of modern societies, probably only second to climate change. Healthcare inflation is on a meteoric rise, and for those with limited or no healthcare coverage, a medical emergency is the equivalent of personal bankruptcy.     A dire problem for employers In the US, employers and consumers who face rising health insurance premiums and astronomical out-of-pocket medical expenses feel the brunt of rising healthcare costs. Such is the problem that even large, well-capitalized corporations choose to send employees overseas for specific medical […] - [Meal-timing patterns, energy balance, and metabolic health](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/meal-timing-patterns-energy-balance-and-metabolic-health/): Meal Timing Patterns Obesity is a growing public health problem and an ever-increasing global pandemic with severe health consequences.

Globally, over the past 40 years, there has been an observed increase in dietary supplement use from 25% to 70%. Moreover, among all adults from 2007-2008 through 2017-2018, dietary supplement use has increased from 48.4% to 56.1%. While dietary supplements are considered alternative forms of medicine and nutrition primarily used to complement an inadequate diet, promote and maintain overall health, as well as prevent specific diseases, they have nowadays moved consumers away from natural foods and medically approved treatments. This trend of dietary supplement abuse is of public health concern because their excessive, […] - [The impact of micronutrients on health and disease](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/the-impact-of-micronutrients-on-health-and-disease/): The role of micronutrients in optimizing health and preventing or treating disease has been acknowledged over the last few years. It stems partly from the increase in knowledge and understanding of the biochemical functions of these nutrients and their relation to health and disease. As important as it is for an individual to be in energy and macronutrient balance to be healthy, it is equally essential to be in micronutrient balance. Therefore, in this article, we will discuss the physiological role of micronutrients, their food sources, micronutrient deficiencies, how they can impact bodily functions and overall health, and micronutrient supplementation […] - [Macronutrients and their role in human health](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/the-role-of-macronutrients-in-human-health/): Macronutrients are the nutritional components of the food that the body needs for energy and to maintain health and longevity. There are three main types of macronutrients in our diet: proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. All three macronutrients have crucial physiological roles in the body and are all required in a healthy diet for optimal health and function. While energy balance is the most vital variable for weight loss, a balanced macronutrient breakdown should accompany an appropriate energy balance regimen so the individual can also accomplish their exercise goals. Proteins Proteins are made up of basic building blocks called amino acids. […] - [Energy balance and its implication in health and disease](https://pnoe.com/blog/longevity/the-concept-of-energy-balance-and-its-implication-in-health-and-disease/): What is energy balance based on? Energy balance is based on the fundamental thermodynamic principle that energy cannot be destroyed and can only be gained, lost, or stored by an organism. It is defined as the state achieved when energy intake equals energy expenditure. When the body is in energy balance, body weight is stable; when the body is in positive energy balance, body weight increases; and when the body is in negative energy balance, body weight decreases. In other words, energy balance practically means weight balance, positive energy balance means weight gain and negative energy balance implies weight loss. […] - [Habit formation & its application to lifestyle patterns such as diet & exercise](https://pnoe.com/blog/longevity/habit-formation-and-its-application-to-lifestyle-patterns-such-as-diet-and-exercise/): We, as humans, are all creatures of habit. From drinking coffee in the morning to brushing our teeth before bed, much of our lives are driven by habits. Habits are thus these default responses, or more articulately, a specific behavior’s sufficiently frequent or consistent performance in a stable context. In the natural course of life, some habits persist for longer periods of time, whereas others are not maintained. Habits are essential in regulating desirable everyday behavior or consolidating long-term behavior change. However, habits may decay when they are no longer activated or are replaced by other actions. Habit formation Behavioral […] - [Exercise and Mental Health](https://pnoe.com/blog/mental_health/exercise-mental-health/): Key points Exercise has been shown to be a powerful drug against mental disorders. Physical exercise induces its beneficiary effect through several mechanisms that involve growth factor production, mitochondrial biogenesis, and angiogenesis. According to one of the most significant meta-analysis studies on mental health, exercise should be a primary tool for mental health preservation. In our previous article, “Nutrition & Mental Health,” we looked into the transformative nature nutrition can have on brain metabolism and, by implication, mental health. According to the decades-old theory correlating metabolism and mental health disorders, abnormalities in cellular brain metabolism, specifically mitochondria function, result in […] - [Nutrition and Mental Health](https://pnoe.com/blog/mental_health/nutrition-mental-health/): Key points A growing number of studies indicate that psychiatric disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain related to the poor mitochondrial function of certain brain cells. Mitochondria dysfunction impairs glucose uptake depriving cells of the energy they need to function correctly. Ketones have shown promise as an alternative fuel that can be absorbed even by metabolically compromised cells and thus restore energy supply and enable their reparation. The previous article on metabolism and mental health explored the deep connection binding cellular function with psychiatric dysfunctions. According to the decades-old theory correlating metabolism and mental health disorders, abnormalities in cellular […] - [Metabolism and Mental Health | Part 1](https://pnoe.com/blog/mental_health/nutrition-mental-health-2/): Key points Our current understanding of mental disorders is very limited as we have no widely accepted biological measurements for diagnosing them, whereas our treatment focuses on mitigating symptoms. Metabolism holds great promise for providing a universal model for explaining the occurrence and progression of mental disorders. The metabolic-based model for mental health opens up the possibility for diet and exercise being powerful cures against the mental health epidemic. Introduction Mental health is considered by many medical experts the most dire epidemic of today’s society. Its distractive nature is rooted in both the psychological impairment it causes and the physiological […] - [Cryolipolysis: The savior treatment method for stubborn local fat deposits](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/cryolipolysis-the-savior-treatment-method-for-stubborn-local-fat-deposits/): Body contouring or body sculpting is a medical or surgical procedure that aims to reshape an area of the body by removing extra skin or eliminating excess fat. It doesn’t help the individual lose weight. It rather helps shape specific areas of the body, such as the stomach or the thighs, where weight loss cannot provide adequate results and visible differences or in cases where significant weight loss has led to extra skin that hides the actual body size and image. Non-surgical body contouring is called lipolysis. The most common methods include cryolipolysis, where freezing temperatures are used for fat […] - [Respiratory training: A neglected but significant training modality](https://pnoe.com/blog/longevity/respiratory-training-a-neglected-but-significant-training-modality/): Respiratory training is the deliberate modification of how we usually breathe throughout the day by implementing specific exercises and techniques to eventually improve oxygen uptake, lung function, and overall well-being, as well as enhance athletic performance. Respiratory training aims to strengthen the diaphragm, which is the primary muscle of respiration as well as the inspiratory rib cage muscles. This will eventually increase lung capacity and optimize oxygen delivery to the body’s tissues, including muscles, at rest and during exercise.  Respiratory training can be applied through various techniques based on the ultimate goal and what best suits the individual. The most […] - [Metabolic flexibility: A valid concept or a catchy term?](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/metabolic-flexibility-a-valid-concept-or-a-catchy-term/): Human physiology has evolved during dramatic fluctuations in energy supply and demand. Coping with these challenges has enabled the human body to manage energy metabolism for optimal substrate storage and utilization during either food surplus or shortage and of either rest or increased calorie burn. This ability to efficiently adjust metabolism to fluctuations in energy demand by rapidly and efficiently switching between oxidations of different energy substrates, namely fat and carbohydrates, depending on their availability, is known as metabolic flexibility. More specifically, metabolic flexibility is our body’s ability to switch from high levels of fat oxidation during fasted states to […] - [IV therapy benefits & its potential](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/iv-therapy-and-its-potential-to-quickly-reverse-nutritional-deficiencies-and-support-optimal-health-and-function/): IV therapy, also known as intravenous therapy, is a medical treatment that delivers fluids and nutrients, such as minerals and vitamins, directly into an individual’s bloodstream through a vein. The type of IV therapy that involves the injection of vitamins and minerals, also known as vitamin boosters, administers high-dose micronutrients directly into the bloodstream, including vitamins B, vitamin C, magnesium, and calcium. The human body requires a balanced mix of vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, and other nutrients to function properly. When a person is dehydrated, fatigued, sick, or malnourished, their body may not receive sufficient amounts of these nutrients or be […] - [Benefits of Sauna: An ancient Finnish tradition](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/an-ancient-finnish-tradition-that-may-hold-significant-benefits-for-health/): Sauna is a traditional Finnish practice and has been a part of Finnish culture for centuries, being considered a social activity.

Despite thousands of years of exploring the effects of breathing and using its powers to improve mental […] - [How Breathing & Physical Health Interact](https://pnoe.com/blog/longevity/how-breathing-physical-health-interact/): Humans have widely leveraged the connection between breathing and physical health throughout millennia as a healing tool for the disorders of our body and the soul. Our previous article, “Breathing & Psychological Stress: A two-way street,” described the physiological processes that connect the brain and breathing, enabling us to control stress levels and emotions by deliberately changing our breathing. However, a set of similar functions can also heavily influence other core physiological processes that can impact our physical health.    The scientific community’s renewed interest in the mechanics and biology of breathing has shed light on the fundamental mechanisms connecting […] - [Exercise capacity and biological age: A powerful relationship](https://pnoe.com/blog/longevity/exercise-capacity-and-biological-age-a-powerful-relationship/): Regular physical activity at both the recreational and competitive levels contributes substantially to healthy aging and health-enhancing physiological adaptations by helping to prevent or control many of the health problems that often reduce the quality and length of life in individuals. However, increasing age is associated with declining physical activity and changes in several physiological parameters, such as the aerobic and anaerobic energy systems. While anaerobic power and capacity decline at similar rates at about 6-8% per decade, peak aerobic power declines much slower with age.  In keeping with the unprecedented growth rate of the world’s aging population, there is […] - [Heart rate variability: A valuable biomarker with a major impact on physiological and psychological health](https://pnoe.com/blog/mental_health/heart-rate-variability-a-valuable-biomarker-with-a-major-impact-on-physiological-and-psychological-health/): Heart rate is the number of heartbeats per minute, and heart rate variability (HRV) quantifies the variability of heart rate. Although the heart rate may be reasonably stable, the time between two successive heart contractions (R-R intervals) can vary considerably at rest; hence, HRV is the beat-to-beat variation in the time intervals between adjacent or consecutive heartbeats, called the interbeat intervals (IBIs). The oscillations of a healthy heart are complex and constantly changing, which allows the cardiovascular system to adjust rapidly to sudden physical and psychological challenges to homeostasis.  HRV is considered a noninvasive, practical, and reproducible biomarker of autonomic […] - [Plant based diets, exercise performance & chronic disease.](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/plant-based-diets-patterns-and-their-association-with-exercise-performance-and-chronic-disease-are-there-any-nutritional-risks/): Plant-based eating patterns and their association with exercise performance and chronic disease. Are there any nutritional risks?   Plant-based diets (PB), as their name reveals, mainly or only comprise plant foods, such as grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, vegetables, and fruits, excluding foods from animals, including dairy, meat, poultry, fish, and seafood. They vary in restrictiveness, from avoiding only red meat to avoiding animal products entirely. For example, a strict vegan will not consume anything from an animal, including honey and gelatin.  The proportion of the population reporting following a PB diet continues to increase, with approximately 5-10% in developed countries […] - [Types of fitness training, mistakes & how breath analysis can help](https://pnoe.com/blog/performance/types-of-fitness-training-mistakes-how-breath-analysis-can-help-you-avoid-them/): We have all experienced a plateau in our training gains or momentum toward health goals.

The human GI tract contains up to 1013-1014 bacterial cells, consisting of up to 1000 different species. This is ten times more than cells in the human body. It is estimated that over 70% of all microbes in the human body are […] - [Breath Analysis & Diabetes](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/breath-analysis-diabetes/): Unfortunately, diabetes is as common as it is misunderstood. Although pre-diabetes and diabetes are among the most common conditions, many of us, including doctors and health professionals, are utterly oblivious to their origin. As a result, we may claim that diabetes is a lifestyle disease, but we just can’t put our fingers on what exactly in our lifestyle causes it. In this article, we clearly explain the biological process through which diabetes occurs and how breath analysis provides an excellent tool for predicting its onset.     What is diabetes?   Metabolism is the process by which our bodies transform the […] - [Low Carbohydrate diets - Are they worth it?](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/low-carbohydrate-diets-are-they-worth-it/): Low-carbohydrate diets (LCDs) have become a widespread weight loss and management strategy over the last few years. There is also data from several studies that LCDs are more effective in decreasing cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors compared to other types of diets. In the research literature, they have been commonly grouped into three categories: 20-50g carbohydrates per day or less than 10% of a 2000 kcal/day diet, also known as very low carbohydrate diets (VLCD) or ketogenic diets; less than 130g carbohydrates per day or less than 26% of a 2000 kcal/day diet; and less than 45% of a 2000 […] - [Chronic stress & the effect on energy balance](https://pnoe.com/blog/mental_health/the-effect-of-chronic-stress-on-energy-balance/): Life in modern societies is very demanding, with us all thriving on competition, performance, and perfection. People face several challenges daily with different layers of stress, which insidiously increase the human body’s stress levels. The stress response is a biological process that takes place to promote behavioral adaptation under such circumstances. However, when stress exposure becomes prolonged, the stress response becomes maladaptive and can lead to physical and physiological disease. The primary health consequence of stress is depression which nowadays affects over 120 million people worldwide and is projected to be one of the leading causes of death by 2030. […] - [Longevity & the steps to achieve it](https://pnoe.com/blog/longevity/the-steps-to-longevity/): Living a long and healthy life can be one of the most complicated goals. Most of us don’t know where to start, can’t establish a correlation between lifestyle choices and health benefits, and thus spend years experimenting based on empirical knowledge from health professionals, friends, and the media. It doesn’t have to be this way, though. Any significant and daunting endeavor can be turned into an achievable objective if you break it down into small, understandable, and actionable steps. This article discusses the pillars of longevity and the fundamental lifestyle choices influencing them. In simple terms, we aim to explain […] - [Breath Analysis - An Overview](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/breath-analysis-the-myth-of-one-breath-metabolic-test-2/): Breath analysis is a test during which a person’s exhaled gases are analyzed. Its origins date back to the early 20th century when scientists looked to analyze and understand the most fundamental mechanism of all living organisms on our planet, the absorption, and utilization of oxygen. Since its inception, breath analysis has been given many names, including metabolic testing, VO2max testing, Cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and cardio-metabolic analysis. These names are derived from their ability to analyze the three elemental mechanisms that participate in oxygen absorption, transfer, and utilization, namely, our lungs, heart, and cells.  In this article, we dive into […] - [Individualized exercise program benefits & the importance of testing.](https://pnoe.com/blog/performance/the-benefits-of-a-well-rounded-individualized-exercise-program-and-the-importance-of-testing/): Exercise not only maintains physical and psychological health but also helps our bodies respond to the negative consequences of several diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. Exercise is also a valuable adjunct to diet for people trying to lose weight and, in general, combat overweight and obesity. However, most people opt for the most effortless methods of diet (a few days of fasting, detox diets) and exercise (electrical muscle stimulation, body therapies) because they do not want to bother that much. Such an approach mostly leads to the opposite outcomes because they are not fruitful, cause frustration, and […] - [Obesity Explained](https://pnoe.com/blog/weight_management/obesity-explained/): The high fat VS high carb diet is arguably one of the most heated debates in nutrition and fitness and our society at large. What drives the debate’s fervor is our desire to understand the underlying driver of one of the direst problems our world is facing, the obesity epidemic (perhaps only second to climate change).   The Rise of Empiricism in Weight Loss Ignorance leads to conjecture, and conjecture leads to empiricism. This is a typical evolution found in the collective intelligence of humans and has been ever present since the dawn of history. In simple words, if I […] - [Metabolic Tests: Debunking the Myth of a Single Assessment](https://pnoe.com/blog/metabolic_health/metabolic-tests-the-myth-of-one-breath-metabolic-test/): Over the last few years, several handheld breath analysis devices have been introduced to the market, offering presumably easy and accessible metabolic measurements. Their claims, coupled with a lack of validation, have given rise to understandable skepticism and confusion. In this article, we explain what’s true and what’s not true around metabolic analysis and debunk the myth of measuring your metabolism with one breath.  A little bit of background first around the metabolic analysis and breath measurements. Breath analysis is the gold standard method for measuring metabolic activity in the human body. Specifically, It provides the most accurate way of […] - [Finding your limiting factor and the plan to overcome it](https://pnoe.com/blog/performance/finding-your-limiting-factor-and-the-plan-to-overcome-it/): We have all felt that our body’s performance starts to plummet, and we simply can’t run, lift, or move as effectively as we could moments earlier Alas, our limiting factor. This onset of fatigue and the accompanying deterioration in athletic performance may be routed in several sources, including our nervous system, nutrient supply, cardiovascular system, or muscles.  Out of all the systems that participate in the creation of movement and therefore intrinsically important to athletic performance, the most crucial one is the oxygen chain. The oxygen chain comprises all the organs that are responsible for the delivery and utilization of […] - [Meal timing and why it matters](https://pnoe.com/blog/nutrition/why-timing-your-meal-matters/): We all have eating patterns dictated by our everyday life, occupation, and biological preferences. Most of us view the timing of these patterns as something peripheral without knowing how fundamental they can be for our health, performance, mood, and overall quality of life.  Most people focus on the macronutrient, micronutrient, and calorie content of their food without paying the necessary attention to the scheduling of their meals. Indeed, the macros, micros, and calories you consume play a major role in determining optimal nutrition. Timing, however, can be equally important as it is a core factor regulating mood, hunger, and energy […] - [Successful weight loss is about physiology, not psychology](https://pnoe.com/blog/weight_management/successful-weight-loss-is-about-physiology-not-psychology/): Successful weight loss is about physiology, not psychology. Many people jumped on a fad diet that either didn’t work or lost weight and regained it immediately upon ending the diet. It would be so much easier if there were some sort of magic pill you could take to lose weight effectively. Unfortunately, that has yet to be created. So, what’s the best weight loss method? With so many protocols to help improve weight loss, the thought that you can achieve success by being mentally strong isn’t a good plan.
