Nutrition and Hydration Week (March 11 to 17) serves as a critical reminder of the critical role nutrition plays in our overall health and well-being. It is time to reflect on our eating habits and make positive changes towards a healthier lifestyle. At Nutrition Network (NN), we are committed to empowering people with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed choices about their nutrition.
Our platform is an online, accredited education, connection and learning platform established by The Noakes Foundation in collaboration with an esteemed team of doctors and scientists. It is designed for health professionals in all disciplines, covering the latest science and research in the field of Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction (TCR).
The purpose of the Nutrition Network is to actively share the knowledge, research, analysis and practical skills that already exist in the field of TCR with those who want to learn more and apply these strategies in their clinical or professional practice.
In an article, The effect of a therapeutic carbohydrate restriction diet on serum concentrations of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in patients with type 2 diabetes Published in the journal Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders, it investigated the effects of a therapeutic carbohydrate-restriction diet on serum concentrations of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients with type 2 diabetes. The researchers found that the diet led to a significant reduction in hs-CRP levels, suggesting improvement in systemic inflammation.
This Nutrition and Hydration Week, we want to highlight the transformative power of informed nutritional choices. It is time to reflect on the impact our diet has on our health and well-being and empower ourselves with knowledge that can lead to positive change.
By understanding the role of the TCR in managing conditions such as diabetes, improving metabolic health, and implementing evidence-based nutrition practices, we can make informed decisions that support our health goals.
In another article about Effects of a 6-month therapeutic lifestyle modification program on HDL subclasses and HDL-related enzymes in patients with metabolic syndrome Published in the journal Lipids, it investigated the effects of a 6-month therapeutic lifestyle change program, including dietary carbohydrate restriction, on HDL subclasses and HDL-related enzymes in patients with metabolic syndrome. The researchers found that the program led to favorable changes in HDL subclasses and HDL-related enzymes, which are associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.
