A brief description of Keto diet

  Keto diet: How does this diet work: The establishment of the keto diet is if glucose (the simplest form of carbohydrate as well as the main source of energy in every animal) is deprived, which is gained by consuming carbs. The ketones are a substitution of glucose, which is synthesized from stored fat. Hence, the name is ketogenic. The neurocytes (The brain cells) need glucose approximately 120 grams per day because these cells cannot store glucose. When a person is fasting or consumes very little carbohydrates, at first the body pulls glucose from the liver and muscle glycogen. Glycogen breaks down from the liver and muscle into glucose through glycogenolysis by the influence of the hormone glucagon. During this time the level of insulin gets decreased in the blood. The body starts utilizing fat as its primary fuel. When formed ketone bodies begin to accumulate in the organs as well as in the blood, the condition is called ketosis. Mild ketosis is usually experienced by every

Wolf-Chaikoff Effect

Wolf-Chaikoff Effect It is a reduction in thyroid hormone levels caused by ingestion of a large amount of iodine(more than 2mg/day) which suppresses NADPH oxidase activity as well as NIS & TPO genes expression. Jan Wolff and Isreal Lyon Chaikoff first reported that injection of iodine in rats almost completely inhibited " Organification of iodine " in the thyroid gland by an " Autoregulatory phenomenon ".  The Wolff-Chaikoff effect lasts several days(~10 days), after which it is disappeared by a process known as " Escape Phenomenon " which is described by resumption of normal organification of iodine and normal TPO function.                     The Wolff-Chaikoff effect can be used as a treatment principle against hyperthyroidism by infusion of a large amount of iodine to suppress the thyroi d gland.  By- Souti Das image source- twitter
