@eddieabbew: Our ancestors were hunter gatherers. Daily food was not predictable…feast/ famine. They would go days without finding food. When we eat, the food gets broken down to glucose which circulates around our bodies. The brain uses 20% of our total energy requirement. The brain doesn’t store energy so it needs a constant supply of fuel. It has the ability to switch from glucose to ketones. It will use whatever fuel is available. This was critical during our evolution, otherwise the brain would starve. In fact high glucose in the brain makes it degenerate quicker. It prefers a steady blood sugar. There was a time when epilepsy was treated by removing all carbohydrates and letting the brain run on ketones, especially in children. Just think about it. There are essential amino acids, essential fatty acids but not essential carbohydrates. Most of the human body prefers fats for energy. When you wake up in the morning, your brain is functioning on some ketones, around 50%. The most common comment I receive from my clients is: “Eddie, since I changed my diet, my brain fog has disappeared and I feel more focused.” That’s because the brain runs more efficiently on ketones and whatever glucose it needs, it can make it from other sources. As soon as you realise that there is a better way of living that will improve your life tenfold, you should do more research and start enjoying your life. We’ve been deceived when it comes to nutrition, start changing your lifestyle now! #abbewcrew #eatrealfood #eddieabbew #wtfu @Brandon Abbew @Selina Abbew @Eddie Abbew’s Olympian Gym @Pro Prep Meals @Blabbew
