Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "Edible Fiber Can Drive Weight Loss Like The Diet Drugs Given the epidemic of obesity in the US with 30 to 40% of each state’s population dangerously tipping the scales, the diabetes drug semaglutide has become wildly popular. For those who can’t afford the diet pill or who want a more natural solution, look no further than edible grains like oats, barley, and other foods that contain the soluble fiber beta-glucan. Food scientists at the University of Arizona have studied the effect of various fiber types including beta-glucan in a mouse model. Only those mice consuming a beta-glucan supplemented diet had an accelerated energy expenditure, reduction in fatty tissues, and weight loss. So if you want some help knocking off those pounds but don’t want or can’t afford the expensive shots, consider regular consumption of foods rich in beta-glucan. Beta-glucan consumption is also associated with a reduction in total and LDL cholesterol and a lower risk of heart disease. Excellent sources of beta-glucan, besides oats and barley, include reishi and shiitake mushrooms, seaweed, whole wheat bread, and rye bread. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022316624002803?via=ihub https://www.livestrong.com/article/174157-foods-eat-fight-dizziness/ #obesity #dieting #semaglutide #betaglucan #oats #barley #mushrooms"

enmodo ⚛️ 🧬 🇺🇦 🍉While unreplicated studies are a dime-a-dozen imagine the impact on big pharma if it turned out that eating oatmeal or barley fiber every day was an end-run around the ludicrously high cost of GLP-1 treatments in the US. Muesli anyone?
Checking butyrate I found this paper about it's effect on obesity:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S216183132200833X
It concludes "The effect of endogenous butyrate on the gut-brain axis warrants further investigations."
I'm curious to see where this goes!

Ms. Que Banh#CauliflowerMushroom - #SparassisCrispa.
One of my fave #edible & #medicinal #WildMushrooms. It's found in many places around the world, including forests on #VancouverIsland.
We #forage for these wild #mushrooms & use it in making some soups & stir fry dishes.
It's used often in #traditional #Chinese #medicine #TCM because it contains active #pharmacological ingredients. In order to study its medicinal value better, the genomic sequence of S. crispa was published in Oct 2018.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6207663
Dry weight of the #basidiocarp was found to contain up to 43.6% #BetaGlucan, which was approved for the treatment of #cancer in #Japan & recommended for #COVID19 patients to overcome #inflammation.
Experiments suggest that S. crispa contains chemicals that may stimulate the #ImmuneSystem & has many #biological properties including: #AntiTumor, #antiviral activity (reverse transcriptase inhibitory activity), #neuroprotection, #cardioprotection, #AntiInflammation, #hyperlipidemia, #AntiDiabetic medication, #antimicrobial compounds, & methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus #MRSA.

I'd never heard of beta-glucan before.
