“Glucose molecules are driven into cells in the presence of insulin. This is independent of the carbohydrate source (simple or complex, table sugar or broccoli). As dictated by the metabolic demands of the body at that instant, glucose is either… — Brett Osborn Copy Share
“You are a reservoir of biochemical processes, an unbelievably complex machine, albeit with a high degree of predictability. Our bodies, for the most part, act according to a set of rules that evolved over eons as an adaptive response to environmental pressures. Health is attained through sound biochemistry.

Interestingly, they are interrelated as I will explain.… — Brett Osborn Copy Share
