To Wheat or not to Wheat, That is the Question

Date: December 7, 2016 Author: Jeff Leave a comment

On going nutrition questions and controversy surrounding this American staple grain have prompted me to summarize research surrounding bread, flour and pasta. Here is the following supported statements regarding wheat and grains by TriSystem and the National Association of Sports Nutrition.

Do you need to eat wheat?

No. You don’t need to eat any one particular food — be it grains, apples, kale, or fish.

But you need carbs. The amount of carbs you need depends on your activity level.

If you exercise fairly frequently, then you’ll likely do best with a moderate carb intake. Not getting enough could mess with your metabolism, stress hormones, and muscle-building hormones.

If you’re sedentary, have blood sugar issues, and/or need to lose a bunch of weight, then you’ll likely do best with a lower carb intake.

You could replace whole grains with a variety of other high-quality carbs, like potatoes, sweet potatoes, fruit, legumes, squash, yuca, and yams. You’d be able to get all the carbs you need, in addition to plenty of fiber and a wide array of beneficial phytonutrients.

Trying to eliminate grains entirely is going to be difficult in even the best of circumstances.

In a life that involves family holidays, birthday parties, work functions — any instance where others are preparing the food — completely cutting out grains if you’re not suffering from celiac or a sensitivity becomes way, way more trouble than it’s worth.

The position that all grains are unhealthy and should be categorically avoided is too extreme.

So is the notion that grains are inherent “superfoods” that everyone should consume in massive quantities.

Neither end of the spectrum is right.

Most people can be fit and healthy with a mixed carb intake that includes some whole grains (a few refined carbs can be OK, too).

Weigh the benefits against the risks.

Might wheat carry some low-level of risk for some people? Possibly.

Is it likely that the benefits of whole-grain wheat still outweigh this risk? Yes. The same is true for most whole grains — and whole foods — in general. The key to nutrition and life is balance and that balance is the foundation of TriSystem. In most cases, eliminating a whole food from your diet is a bad thing because of the nutrients it provides but, toomuch of a good thing can be a bad thing.

Highly processed grains like white flour and corn syrup are easily overeaten. Better choices are sprouted grain breads like Ezekiel, whole grain products like spinach wheat pasta and even sourdough can really minimize the overindulgence in grains.

The new supplement is gaining popularity day by day. It is very interesting when athletes find something that gives them a true edge, they tell other people. They tell there teammates, not there competition. I really didn't expect it to go this well. We have over 50 people in the test group and the the response has really made me confident that people will be receptive to this product. I've been working on it for years and I know it works. I thank God that the benefits are obvious to others.

They have been so obvious that clients and members have already pre-ordered the product before it even has a name. Well, it's true. Orders are coming in and several of the test group are asking for anything left from the test supply (you can place your order here, Pre-orders are sold for less than what the retail price will be). So we need to speed up production! It's going to take a little time to get the the ingredients packaged and officially approved but, you can help pick up the pace. There is a tremendous effort in creating a brand new product. Patents, Trademarks, FDA approved production. You know how I feel about the supplement industry!

Well here is how you can speed up production

We need a name, a logo and a price and we need it quick. That's where you come in! The supplement study and focus group needs to complete their surveys. If you have the supplement, you are part of the study and need to complete your surveys. The survey can be found here. If you've already completed them THANK YOU!

My New Supplement is even Safer than Pharmaceutical GRADE! How can that be?

Date: October 1, 2012 Author: Jeff Leave a comment

This is why I hate the supplement industry. There is so much misinformation out there. Even the government can be misleading. Here is the truth…

When ever you release a new supplement people want to know:

What does it do?
Does it work?
Is it safe?

Well an all natural, botanical product that has a sports nutrition and a holistic health benefit just seems too good to be true! Let’s face it, if I was introduced to my product, I would be a little skeptical to begin with, as well. How could six herbs positively effect my mood, metabolism and my recovery form exercise? The real magic in this supplement isn’t from the ingredients as they stand alone but, the combination of these nutrients as they work together to invoke a synergistic effect. So together, in the right combination, these six ingredients work better than if just taken in various amounts alone.

To review the ingredients:

High Potency Hormonal Botanical TriComplex:

Rhodiola rosea standardized to min. 3% total Rosavins and min. 1% salidrosides
Pausinystalia yohimbe bark powder standardized to 2% yohimbine alkaloids
Turnera diffusa leaf powder

This TriComplex is designed to support proper mindset and mood for optimal physical and mental performance within minutes of ingestion. This complex sets the stage for a great workout or performance, elevating the desire to do your best while simultaneously reducing jitteriness or non-productive stress and enhancing exercise metabolism.

High Potency Antioxidant Botanical TriComplex:

Silybum marianum seeds standardized to 40% silymarin
Camellia sinensis standardized to 10% polyphenols.
Curcuma longa standardized to 80% curcuminoids

This TriComplex has a balanced combination of some of the strongest antioxidants on the planet. Research is still finding increased cancer fighting and protective qualities of these ingredients designed to protect the body and support ins natural growth and repair response to exercise.

In answering the question, “What Does it Do?” We are just scratching the surface in these posts. After the test group is complete, I will give a complete report of how this supplement works in depth. Suffice it to say that it positively benefits mood for exercise, potentiates metabolism of fat and protein synthesis and enhances recovery from exercise.

The answer to the question, “Does it Work?” Well, the research say’s so. My own use of it speaks to its validity. I’ve been using and testing this combination for years and this combination has been instrumental in getting me to the best fitness level of my life, in my mid forties. I’m in better shape now than when I was an active US Marine! The first test group is also validating this as fact. For as long as this product is around, we will continue to test it and improve it based on these continual studies.

The main focus of this post is the third question, “Is it safe?” Let me start by saying all the ingredients in this product are safe! Five out of the six ingredients have rare, if any, side effects when taken individually and within our first study group, have not been questioned at all. The green tea has minimal amounts of naturally occurring caffeine that is less than a half of a cup of coffee.

The only ingredient that has been questioned is yohimbe bark. Is it potentially an herb with side effects or not. It is not the “Black Sheep that some websites make it out to be. Yohimbe bark is the raw, naturally occurring part of the plant that the active ingredient yohimbine is derived from. In the whole bark form that I have chosen, it contains only 2% yohimbine. Yohimbe bark doesn’t contain just yohimbine, but also 55 other alkaloids. Among the other alkaloids, corynanthine is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor blocker . Hence the use of yohimbe bark in sufficient dosages may provide both alpha-1 and alpha-2 adrenoceptors blockade and thus may better enhance circulation and readiness to exercise.

Natural Yohimbe bark

Pharmaceutical Yohimbine

Adverse effects have been reported from excessive consumption or high dosages of yohimbine extract that has been isolated and concentrated from its natural form, not from consuming yohimbe bark in its natural form.

“Although tolerated generally well in low doses, the potential for dose-dependent toxicity should be recognized.” To much of a good thing can be a bad thing.

Journal of Dietary Supplements, December 2011, Vol. 8, No. 4 , Pages 346-354, Yohimbine Use for Physical Enhancement and Its Potential Toxicity, (doi:10.3109/19390211.2011.615806)

Medical Concerns of taking pharmaceutical yohimbine:

Those with chronic high blood pressure or those who take monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) medication may be sensitive to certain foods as well as yohimbe. If you are sensitive to the following list of foods or if you’ve been told to avoid these foods, you may also be sensitive to yohimbine.

In any case this list of tyramine containing foods should be consumed in moderation and even avoided for those who are sensitive or who have high blood pressure:

cheeses, including american, blue, boursault, brick, brie, camembert, cheddar, emmenthaler, gruyere, mozzarella, parmesan, romano, roquefort, stilton, and swiss;
sour cream and yogurt;
beef or chicken liver, fish, meats prepared with tenderizer, bologna, pepperoni, salami, summer sausage, game meat, meat extracts, caviar, dried fish, herring, shrimp paste, and tuna;
avocados, bananas, figs, raisins, and sauerkraut;
soy sauce, miso soup, bean curd, and fava beans;
yeast extracts;
ginseng;
chocolate;
caffeine (coffee, tea, cola, etc.); and
beer (alcoholic and nonalcoholic), red wine (especially Chianti), sherry, vermouth, and other distilled spirits.

Benefits of Yohimbe Bark

Studies around yohimbe bark and the active alkaloid show enhanced fat loss.

“Furthermore, fat mass was significantly lower in the yohimbine versus placebo trial at post supplementation assessment.”

Research in Sports Medicine: An International Journal, Volume 14, Issue 4, 2006, http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15438620600987106

Whole yohimbe bark has been shown to absorb and help remove heavy metals like copper and nickel from our bodies.

“When comparing both biomaterials, yohimbe bark … was found to be the most efficient adsorbent for both metals studied.”

Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology,Volume 75, Issue 9, pages 812–816, September 2000http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/1097-4660%28200009%2975:9%3C812::AID-JCTB284%3E3.0.CO;2-B/abstract;jsessionid=11399AEB941174F7902C65D3919F0A35.d02t01?deniedAccessCustomisedMessage=&userIsAuthenticated=false

The Bottom Line?

The new TriSystem Supplement does contain a small amount of natural yohimbe bark NOT pharmaceutical yohimbine.
