Knowledge bombs! Competitive athlete? Recover faster? Suppressed testosterone? Body fat gain? Spinach supplementation? - Quicker recover to get you back to training harder sooner is attributed to foods that don’t cause more inflammatory effects & more anti-inflammatory responses without undermining adaptation. - This Mint Chip Smoothie is a regular I cannot get enough of! The best part is it’s packed with spinach [1/2 a bag 🤭] & you wouldn’t even know! - Turns out we have evidence that supplementation with spinach [uh, actually eating say a salad 🤦🏼‍♂️] has an effect “on exercise-induced oxidative stress”—(you know markets of DNA damage from free radicals, inflammation, & muscle damage). That soreness you feel tomorrow from the hard work you did today! - Intense exercise can put the body under a real deal of stress. Add some spinach every day and we can see the difference in the body’s ability to deal with stress within two weeks! - That’s just markers of Creatine Kinase leaking into your blood (which should be in your muscle) days after intense exercise. With spinach we see same post activity bump but significantly less next-day Spike. - Day-after-day—a single meal high in animal protein can nearly double the levels of stress hormones in the blood within half hour of consumption. - What does this mean? - Increase in blood pressure, spike in inflammation, constricted arteries, and all that extra cortisol release has been linked to increase risk for elevated blood levels of insulin, triglycerides, cholesterol and some estrogen, and suppression in testosterone. - Eating animals is a disaster! All of which produce no performance enhancement or increase in recovery and may also attribute to the obesity body fat gain. - Switch from a high meat diet to a high carb “bread, veggie, & fruit” cortisol levels drop a quarter in 10 days and testosterone increase about the same amount. - So give spinach a chance. I’ll hit on muscle soreness with my last post and more to come!
