Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Bee Bread

Bee bread is a fermented mixture of pollen, nectar, and enzymes created by bees to serve as a highly nutritious food source for the colony. Bee bread is known for its potential health benefits, including supporting digestion, boosting immunity, and enhancing energy levels.

2. Type 2 Diabetes, Heart Disease & Omega-3

A recent study shows that regular fish oil supplementation and higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids were linked to a lower risk of both macrovascular and microvascular complications in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

3. Sulforaphane & Kidney Disease

Sulforaphane is a plant compound found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying benefits. Research suggests that sulforaphane may be highly beneficial for individuals with kidney disease. One study found that after 30 days, participants who supplemented with sulforaphane experienced significant reductions in glucose levels and triglycerides.
