'osmotic pressure.'\r\n\r\nthe body's standard osmotic pressure is isotonic.\r\n\r\naccording to this logic, a substance entering the body must be in the isotonic state to be absorbed, transported, and readily available for its\u00a0<a class=\"editor-rtflink\" href=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/metabolism-weight-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener

transformed into the proper isotonic state.\r\n\r\nduring this time, much of their activity is lost. during digestion, the essential micronutrients in pills and capsules can get trapped by fats, fibers, tannins, or inactivated by the stomach's highly acidic ph level.\r\n\r\nhowever, isotonix supplements are already in disintegrated powdered form. this means that less work is required to

several ingredients that offer unique health benefits regarding energy, immunity, muscle mass growth, and digestion.\r\n\r\nit is popular amongst athletes and people who want to get rid of their never-ending fat belly. many users take it before work out sessions as it boosts their energy levels and provides them with maximum strength and stamina.\r\n\r\na high quantity of vitamins provides you with increased immunity against diseases and boosts your overall metabolism.\r\n\r\nit is also a beneficial supplement for older people. it helps them manage daily tasks without any complaints about muscle contractions and feeling fatigued, hence providing a healthy lifestyle for people of all ages.\r\n<h2><strong>how to use (take) isotonix<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nall isotonix supplements come in powdered form and mixed with water before drinking.\r\n\r\nto ensure that the isotonic solution flows immediately into your small intestine, make sure you take it on an empty stomach.\r\n\r\nthis process utilizes the supplement more efficiently due to the increased absorbability, hence giving optimum desired results.\r\n<h3><strong>why is gastric emptying time stressed when talking about isotonix?<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nnutrients that are already isotonic will not be broken into an isotonic state. therefore, gastric emptying occurs more rapidly. biological sensors in the gastrointestinal tract detect that the ingested solution is isotonic and at a correct ph. this causes the pyloric valve at the lower end of the stomach to remain open, allowing the concentrated solution to be squirted into the small intestine by stomach contractions. absorption of the nutrients by the intestinal mucosa then starts to occur.\r\n\r\nisotonix products are to clear your stomach at an optimal rate to maximize absorption. a pill does not fully deliver into your bloodstream the vitamins it holds within. either the medication is dumped whole into your intestinal tract or the active ingredients pass through without being fully absorbed.\r\n\r\nvitamins taken in isotonic form do not have these shortcomings. thus, it is necessary to consume isotonix supplements on an empty stomach.\r\n<h2><strong>isotonix product warnings<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nisotonix products are free of harmful chemicals, preservatives, and alcohol.\r\n\r\nfor optimum results, stick to taking isotonix with water. avoid mixing it with soda, milk, juice, coffee, tea, etc. it should be stored in a dry and cool place, ideally in a dry cabinet.\r\n\r\navoid keeping it in your bathroom and keep out of children's reach. if you are storing it in the kitchen, make sure it is far away from the sink, stove, window ledges, and heat-generating appliances.\r\n\r\nif the weather conditions are very humid, you may keep it in the refrigerator but far from the fruit and vegetable area because it has high humidity. note that moisture from the air quickly condenses on cold items taken out from a refrigerator.\r\n\r\nthe supplement's sugars quickly absorb moisture and cause hardening of the power, commonly referred to as 'caking.'\r\n\r\nreturn isotonix products immediately back into the refrigerator after using it.\r\n\r\nensure you clean and dry the screw cap's threads before putting the bottle back into the refrigerator. any amount of moisture will accumulate on the bottle resulting in caking. ensure the cap screw is tightly closed at all times and avoid leaving it open for more than a few minutes.\r\n\r\nif you note that the powder is hardening, shake the bottle contents a few times during the cool-down period. this will help prevent it from hardening into a solid mass.\r\n<h2><b>any isotonix lawsuits?<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<img class=\"img-responsive\"

myths about cholesterol<\/h2>\r\nwhat, in the constellation of myths of surrounding cholesterol, is true? here are six tips to clarify some of the confusion about the role it plays in our bodies.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>1. there is good and bad cholesterol<\/strong><\/em>\r\n\r\ncholesterol is a single lipid molecule found in the bloodstream that travels to different cells or flows in the intestinal system's direction to be expelled from the body. it is thought that it is imperative to strike a balance between the cholesterol entering the body and that being excreted, such that the levels in the blood do not exceed 200 mg per 100 milliliters of blood (mg\/dl).\r\n\r\nideally, the cholesterol entering the body does not exceed 150 mg\/dl and that it does not leave at a rate higher than 40 mg\/dl. if this balance is maintained, good health is maintained, while if there is an imbalance, people are considered to have bad cholesterol.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>2. eating meats and sausages increase the danger of cholesterol<\/strong><\/em>\r\n\r\novereating anything is bad, of course, but animal fats do not directly increase the proportion of cholesterol in the blood, at least not just by being ingested. more and more studies point out that cholesterol levels are not directly related to the intake of animal fats, regardless of how rich they are in cholesterol. this is because most of the ingested and absorbed cholesterol through the intestine is metabolized, broken down to be used by the body in other ways. thus, most of the cholesterol in the blood is synthesized by our bodies, and this synthesis is not influenced by the number of fats consumed.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>3. dairy products and eggs have an impact on cholesterol<\/strong><\/em>\r\n\r\nthe same is true of fats from dairy or egg products as, even though they are high in calories, they do not directly influence the amount of cholesterol in the blood, according to the journal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/30210871\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>cholesterol<\/em><\/a>. it is possible to be overweight without showing an alarming amount of bad cholesterol due to genetic factors or fatty foods' ingestion.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>4. drinking danacol and benecol lower cholesterol<\/strong><\/em>\r\n\r\nit is true that products such as danacol and benecol lower the amount of cholesterol that enters the bloodstream as long as they are taken in recommended doses, and not for more than two days. it is not recommended that adults who are taking medication or are pregnant ingest these things, as they are high in phytosterols, which block the intestinal absorption of cholesterol.\r\n\r\nthis works by blocking 10% of the body's cholesterol absorption, which lowers the body's natural 20% absorption rate. cholesterol normally is absorbed and used by the body to manufacture vitamin d, among other things. it is unknown if the decrease in the rates of absorption has some long-term negative impacts, such as on the body's ability to synthesize these important chemicals.\r\n\r\non the other hand, when a person stops taking products enriched with phytosterols, their body's natural processes will readjust, raising the cholesterol to previous levels. the best way to ingest phytosterols, though, is to include them in a diet high in fiber, through the addition of fruits and vegetables.\r\n\r\n<em><strong>5. cholesterol is a toxin that must be avoided<\/strong><\/em>\r\n\r\nit is one of the most important metabolites our bodies possess. it is involved in the construction of cell membranes, the creation of bile salts, the generation of vitamin d, the production of sex hormones, and the production of corticosteroids. it is also an important food for the flora of the intestine.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"\/\/www.digitopmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/fruits-vegetables-1.jpg\" alt=\"benecol foods\" width=\"7057\" height=\"1411\" \/>\r\n<h2>how benecol fights cholesterol<\/h2>\r\nbenecol is a plant-based addition to sterol products that act against cholesterol, ldl, and other bad forms. it works to reduce cholesterol efficiency in just three weeks, thus operating against hypercholesterolemia. it is made from fermented milk, which means it is a good addition to other dairy-based ferments containing plant sterols. these plant sterols occur naturally in vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, making it a great treatment for hypercholesterolemia.\r\n\r\nthe plant sterols reduce the absorption of cholesterol by the body by 75%. this increases the synthesis of the apolipoprotein hdl, which facilitates good cholesterol. one unit of benecol contains 1.6 g. of sterols, which reduces cholesterol levels in three weeks. it is important to include a variety of fiber-rich foods, such as more fruits and vegetables, in addition to benecol.\r\n<h3>sterols and stanols in two words<\/h3>\r\nfirst, as noted above, are the phytosterols. it is quite well documented that these phytosterols compete with cholesterol in food such that, when sterol or stanol-rich food is ingested, these components are absorbed instead of the cholesterol.\r\n\r\nhowever, in addition to finding them in the aforementioned functional foods that \"lower cholesterol,\" these phytosterols are naturally present in various fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, cereals, legumes, and vegetable oils. the same is true of the stanols, but they are found in even smaller amounts than sterols.\r\n<h2>can benecol improve health?<\/h2>\r\nthe truth is that all this sounds very nice, and, based on the fact that the brands have been hammering these facts in over fifteen years, the average consumer likely believes it. \"if i have high blood cholesterol levels, and i take some milk-cabbage type product that helps to block cholesterol absorption from food\u2026 then my cholesterol will fall, and my cardiovascular risk will decrease.\"\r\n\r\nsounds good, very good, right? but unfortunately, it is not proven. if one day someone analyses the impact of these products on global health\u2026 the result will be quite murky. there are two key burning issues:\r\n\r\nleaving aside the presumed benefits, it is not clear that incorporating sterols and stanols into a diet by eating functional foods enriched in these elements is risk-free\u2026. it may yet be revealed that they are doing more harm than good.\r\n\r\nthe fact that including these products in your diet helps reduce your cholesterol is more or less clear. it is far less clear that that has a clinically observable effect on cardiovascular health, and further study is necessary.\r\n<h2>lawsuits<\/h2>\r\non may 15, 2019, benecol was hit with a class-action lawsuit with claims the product contained trans fats, despite promoting the fact that contains no trans fats, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/topclassactions.com\/lawsuit-settlements\/consumer-products\/food\/896751-benecol-spreads-contain-trans-fat-class-action-claims\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">top class action<\/a>.\r\n\r\nthe lawsuit claims that the product contains partially hydrogenated soybean oil, which contains trans fats.\r\n<h2>so why people are using benecol?<\/h2>\r\nrecall that, in this case, the \"serious knowledge\" about cholesterol was forged in the interest of a specific industry. the work of hundreds, or thousands, of advertising strategies, has worked perfectly to convince the consumer that buying these functional foods will positively impact their cardiovascular health. however, there is not much that has been fully proven.\r\n\r\nat present, there is a special sensitivity in the world to research concerning subjects like cholesterol, cardiovascular health, sterols, and stanols. there is plenty of information about these things in editorials of the cardiovascular safety of plant sterol and stanol consumption journal which summarize, in an obvious way, the impacts of these compounds on cardiovascular health:\r\n\r\nalthough links have been made between cardiovascular health and the levels of plant sterols and stanols present in functional foods, there has been no conclusive evidence to support this.\r\n\r\nthere has also been no evidence. however, including these has no negative impact either.\r\n\r\nas mentioned above, cholesterol in a person's diet has minimal impact on a person's cholesterol levels. this raises the question of why one would add a unique milk-cabbage product to an already healthy diet?\r\n\r\nfor several years now, it has been understood that cholesterol levels in the bloodstream are not a good way of measuring cardiovascular risk. this is even acknowledged in the advertisements for these products, although in a way that still entices us to buy them. other measures, such as the proportion of various lipoproteins and other lipid metabolism elements, are now seen as better determinants of cardiovascular health. so much for the simplicity of the 200 mg\/dl measure.\r\n\r\nthose who are bothered by their high cholesterol levels can go to the supermarket and buy any one of many targeted products. consumers interested in these products, which are designed to lower ldl cholesterol in heart health, are most likely to use proactive margarine from unilever.\r\n\r\nbesides danacol and benecol products, there is also the possibility of drinking yogurt enriched with plant sterols. these products adorn themselves with various health claims, and the european food safety authority (efsa) has found some of these to be effective.\r\n\r\nhowever, plant substances have come under some criticism. consumer advocate groups, like foodwatch, have argued that these products, due to their strength, should only be sold in pharmacies. this is to cut down on their use by those who do not have pathologically elevated cholesterol levels. indeed, a recent belgian revealed that every fifth flemish preschooler takes these products!\r\n\r\n\"the products simply have a healthy image,\" says birgit niemann, a scientist at the federal institute for risk research (bfr). heart health specialists are also critical as, after all, phytosterols are highly effective substances that could potentially be dangerous. \"just because the fabrics are natural does not mean that they are automatically healthy and safe,\" warns oliver weingartner of saarland university.\r\n\r\n<img
