Consuming carrots isn't the best way to get the benefits of vitamin A. Learn more! 0:00 Introduction: Do carrots have a lot of vitamin A? 0:14 Pre-vitamin A vs. active vitamin A 1:32 Foods rich in vitamin A 2:07 Are carrots keto-friendly? 5:05 Learn more about fiber and insulin! Which has more vitamin A: 40 pounds of carrots or three ounces of beef liver? It turns out that beef liver is a better source of vitamin A. Carrots have a lot of pre-vitamin A, called beta-carotene. The active form of vitamin A is called retinol. Beta-carotene has to convert into retinol to become active, but the conversion rate isn’t very high. The best sources of beta-carotene are plant-based, and the best sources of retinol are animal-based. To get the vitamin A your body needs, it’s important to consume animal sources that have the active form of vitamin A, retinol. Foods high in vitamin A (retinol): • Beef liver • Cod liver and cod liver oil • Egg yolk • Butter Beta-carotene is a great nutrient, but you can’t get all of the vitamin A benefits you need from beta-carotene. So, what about carrots? Are carrots keto-friendly? Carrots are higher on the glycemic index, but they have a lot of fiber, making the sugar less of a problem. So, yes, you can have carrots on keto. But keep in mind that carrot juice doesn’t have very much fiber and shouldn’t be consumed on the keto diet.

Watch this video to learn how to eliminate flabby arm fat and improve your overall upper-body strength. DATA: https://youtu.be/Y346900i9qE https://youtu.be/rUD7Gml5Veo https://youtu.be/-_TyvArPYJo 0:00 Introduction: Understanding the root cause of flabby arm fat 0:31 Sarcopenia and age-related muscle loss 1:02 The role of fascia in maintaining arm shape and function 2:57 The importance of functional exercises 3:13 Recommended arm workout videos to enhance fascial health and muscle strength Flabby arms can be a frustrating problem for many individuals, especially as they age. The loss of muscle mass and strength in this area can not only affect physical appearance but also limit daily activities and overall quality of life. In addition to sarcopenia, the process of age-related muscle loss, flabby arms can also be caused by weakened fascia. Fascia is a connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles and other structures in the body. Without proper maintenance and movement, it can become tight or restricted, leading to a decreased range of motion and weakness in the associated muscles. This is why targeting both the muscles and fascia is crucial for effectively improving flabby arms. Functional exercises, which involve multi-joint movements that mimic everyday tasks, are key to targeting muscle and fascial health. Working multiple muscles and joints at once helps strengthen and activate the surrounding fascia, which can lead to tighter, more toned arms with improved strength and function. To incorporate exercises into your routine to help improve the fascia, I recommend trying out the three workout videos linked above. These videos focus on a variety of movements that target the arms, shoulders, and fascia for a well-rounded approach to flabby arm reduction.

Today we’re going to talk about natural alternatives for dyspareunia. This condition can cause pain during intercourse, pelvic exams, and horse riding, or while inserting a tampon or sitting too long. My opinion is that this condition is typically caused by oxalates in the vaginal area. Oxalates can form crystals that can look like razor blades and are behind other conditions, as well, like kidney stones and gout. Thankfully, there are natural remedies for dyspareunia and certain foods that may be helpful. You may also want to avoid high-oxalate foods for a while to help determine if oxalates could be involved. High-oxalate foods to avoid if you have dyspareunia: • Spinach • Beets • Grains • Beans • Potatoes • Almonds • Peanuts • Kiwi • Wheat germ • Soy • Xylitol • Blackberries • Chocolate • Eggplant • Black pepper • Swiss chard • Rhubarb • Figs • Turmeric Try consuming dairy with any of the above foods to help reduce the effects of oxalates. Foods that are okay to consume if you have dyspareunia: • Meat • Fish • Seafood • Eggs • Dairy • Fats • Arugula • Cabbage • Avocado • Cauliflower • Lettuce • Saturated fats The best natural remedies for dyspareunia: 1. Vitamin B6 (P5P form) 2. Calcium citrate (before bed) 3. NAG (n-acetyl-glucosamine) 4.
