is that these types of events will become increasingly frequent

Since the end of May the meteorology in Spain has been A roller mountain in which summer heat days have alternated with days of thermal drops and abundant storms. And if the last of these episodes of instability has been characterized by something has been for the intense hails seen in some points of the peninsular center. After the beak. After reaching Wednesday its peak of activity, the last stormy episode begins to love the Peninsula. However, the chronicle of a hail leaves us that in some places reached the ground with a considerable size such as three centimeter balls Views in Madrid. And suddenly, Pedrisco. The big question is how we have come to see such a situation in the middle of June, when the weather spring has come to an end. The key may be precisely in the thermal oscillations that we have lived during these weeks. According to they explain from Eltiempo.essurface heat generates ascending convective currents. These are entered into clouds of great vertical growth and raise water drops to large heights. From water to ice. These drops, in their ascent they can reach very cold layers of the atmosphere, when reaching the -15º Celsius They begin to form hail. Ice falls by gravity, but can rise again trapped by convective currents. When descending, hail captures moisture dragged by the warm air that returns it to the high and cold layers. The result is hail balls that increasingly accumulate more water, more mass and greater diameter. Finally, atmospheric instability ends up unleashing storms in which accumulated hail is precipitated against the surface. End of the stormy episode. Meteorologists point out that the last stormy episode has come to an end: the Dana responsible for instability seen these days moves away from the peninsula. However, storms will not complete has issued several notices For storms and possibility of hail. Among these notices are orange notices due to an important risk of storms, in force tomorrow on the Ebro banks in Zaragoza and in the province of Huesca. In some areas, storm notices of these days will coexist with notices due to high temperatures. A problem that will go to more. Climate experts point out that the frequency and intensity of extreme weather phenomena will increase as a consequence of climate change. Although we associate storms to instability and cold, heat plays an important role. The heat not only generates ascending currents that alter the structure of the clouds, there is also the fact that hot air causes the atmosphere to accumulate more moisture. More water in the atmosphere means greater rainfall associated with storms such as those lived during these days.

We increasingly understand the relationship between intestinal flora and sleep quality

by

Many researchers ago They have been pointing That the intestine is not limited only to digesting food. It has neurons, produces substances that the brain also uses to communicate and, most curious, seems to be in direct contact with it. Hence some call it “The second brain”And maybe it does not sound so exaggerated if we think it can also influence how we sleep. Sleep badly affects digestion (And vice versa). It happens to many: after a heavy dinner it costs to sleep, and after a bad night the stomach seems more sensitive. Even if they seem like unrelated, they are actually connected. When one of the two fails, the other also shows it. Sleeping badly stresses the body, more cortisol is released and that can alter the functioning of the intestine. And if the digestive system does not do well, send signals to the brain that complicate relax and reconcile sleep. It is like a silent talk that happens all the time between what happens in the head and what it feels in the belly. The scientific support. There are more and more research that confirms something key: the quality of sleep is closely linked to the state of our intestinal microbiota. One of the most interesting studies was published in 2023. The scientists used a fairly accurate technique – called “bidirectional Mendelian random” – and showed that the dream and the intestine are in constant communication. When that balance is broken, either by a bad rest or by a digestive mismatch, both systems are affected. In addition, the most curious thing is that the key hormone to regulate sleep occurs in the intestine: melatonin. According to an investigationhaving an intestine in equilibrium could be one of the keys, sometimes invisible, to be able to sleep well. But … And stress? Stress is another great actor in this story. When you are stressed, not only costs you more to sleep. The digestive system is also altered. And most interesting: the intestinal microbiota is also affected. In fact, a recent study He has found That the intestine reacts to stress and, dependent on how it is, can calm or worsen it. If the intestinal flora is unbalanced, more anxiety, more irritability will be felt, and will cost more relax. In the end, it is a vicious circle: stress alters the intestine, the intestine responds badly, and all that interferes in sleep. The focus on food. The diet is key to maintaining a balanced microbiota, which helps regulate sleep and mood. A study He has revealed The importance of eating with regular schedules, avoiding heavy or late dinners, incorporating fiber -rich foods, natural fermented ones such as yogurt or kefir, and reducing outraprocesses can have a real impact on your rest. I even know has observed That certain probiotics, such as Bifidobacterium brief, can improve sleep quality by influencing the hormonal axis that regulates stress. Sleeping is not a matter of a good pillow. That too. Sleeping well is an act of balance. Not only mental, also intestinal. Understanding that invisible connection between the brain and the digestive system can be the first step to recover rest. Because sometimes, taking care of the belly is also taking care of sleep.

In search of a audience, RTVE is increasingly similar to Telecinco. The consequences are controversial like Melody’s

by

He Melody’s prick in Eurovision It is generating an unexpected shock wave. The last last place in the Latest edition of the controversial festival He has not caused the diva to adopt the usual low profile in these times, waiting for the chaparrón to pass (or not: who heard again about Morpheus’s dream after his penultimate in 2013?), But we have seen her return at a press conference with attacks on some RTVE partners and public television itself. Derogatory comments. Yesterday afternoon, Melody appeared in Study 6 of Prado del Rey before a hundred journalists. It was an expected return because it was the first official statements of the interpreter of ‘ESA Diva’ after set up to the revolt Already other RTVE programs with which he had commitments after Eurovision. “It hurt that some companions of some chains, and of the same chain, have made a little derogatory comments towards my person and my performance,” he said. Among the most commented on networks of this appearance has been The conflict with RTVEhis Positioning with the conflict in Israel or the Message between lines to sonsoles onega. Broncano in the spotlight. With that comment he referred especially to David Broncano’s program, who saw CANCELADA Melody’s visit at the last minute and had to react with an emergency guest. “Above all is mental health, and there has been some television program in which they have laughed that I went home to see my family and my son and need time, and it doesn’t seem good to me,” he said. He also commented that there have been comments on “other programs of RTVE itself. They have been subliminal messages dedicated to my person who did not stick. I do not speak of anyone’s salary and I do not want to talk about mine.” The inevitable Israel. The great presence of this year in Eurovision has been that of Israel, both for the result of popular votes as for the abundant voices that ask for the withdrawal of the country from the contest while continuing the conflict in Gaza. Israel also brought the most tense moment of the press conference, when the press asked Melody to position themselves, after he did This year’s own winner. Melody replied that he would not pronounce because “once I did the Benidorm Fest, I am required by contract not to make political comments.” RTVE Demiente. RTVE has rushed to Defer that point on social networksensuring that “at no time has any representative of Spain in Eurovision be prohibited in Eurovision to make political comments. It is the rules of the UER that establish that the songs, and only the songs should not include political content.” Remember that Israel’s own participation is on the table in the European Broadcasting Union for next editions. They looked for him. For a few months, it could be said that RTVE is facing a series of controversial decisions that are generating conflicts even within the entity and that they move it away from the traditional image of public television, traditionally more moderate and oriented to the public service. Historically, there were objectives on public television (impartiality, public service, absence of advertising) that contrasted with those that could be seen in private (search for audience, spectacularization and conflict). The two borders, however, are blurring. The audience above all. On the one hand, the search for audiences has led to the signing of stars that in some cases are giving good results (‘the revolt’, although far from defeating the unbeatable ‘El Hormiguero’) and in others not so much (‘The family of TV’, which Does not find its space in the afternoons). Significantly, in both cases the programs are supported by the conflict, with Pablo Motos in the first case, which has led to some hostilities rarely seen in that strip; And with the DNA of ‘Save Me’, controversial and missed by definition, in the second. Closer to private TV. Melody’s anger, then, is the result of this reorientation towards proposals more typical of private television. It is detected, for example, in all the treatment that TVE is giving the controversy, managed and fed from the same chain: the press conference -especially tense with the presence of María Eizaguirre, communication director of RTVE-, ‘La Revuelta’ and, of course, ‘The family of TV’. A strategy similar to when ‘Save Me’ commented on the programs of The Telecinco de Vasilecreating a kind of self -sufficient world that feedback itself. All this has given rise to an evolution of RTVE that has caught the attention of Critical means with management of the current president of RTVE, José Pablo López. A manager accustomed to controversy and accused of politicizing the platform And that has motivated that at the moment the question about the table is: do these contents attract new audience or erode confidence in the chain?

Eating fermented col can seem an unpleasant idea. Science is increasingly clear that it is excellent for your diet

by

The Germans call it Sauerkraut and the French Choucroutea term that usually is castelling as sauerkraut. It is a fermented col, a typical preparation in various European countries where it is used as accompaniment in dishes of different kinds. A beneficial preparation. We have been indicated that this traditional preparation could contribute important benefits to our health. Now, a new study by two researchers from the University of California, Davis has found new tests that Chucrut can help our health through digestion. According to the study, the fermented col can help maintain the integrity of our intestinal cells. Good news is that this beneficial effect occurred both with the Homemade Chucrut as with which we buy already prepared. “It doesn’t matter, in a way, if we do Sauerkraut at home or if we buy it in the store; both types of Sauerkraut They seem to protect the intestinal function, ”Maria Marco, co -author of the study, explained in a press release. Three elements. The team compared three elements related to the chucrut and its fermentation process: the “raw” vegetable, the brine extracted from the fermented product, and product itself, the Sauerkraut. Team efforts They focused on the study of metabolites present in this food. Metabolites are compounds that occur when biologically decomposing food and its compounds. When passing through a fermentation process, the chemical changes that occur in a food can be important, hence its flavor and aroma, but also its nutritional value. Nutritional changes. The chemical analysis by the team showed changes in the nutritional profile of the Col after fermentation. They found beneficial metabolites, including lactic acid and amino acids, but also observed a lower carbohydrate contribution. Some of the metabolites found were identical to those generated by the intestinal mcirobioma. The changes found, the team stands out, could explain the digestive benefits often attributed to fermented products. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Applied and Environmental Microbiology. More than probiotics. The study conducted in the laboratory is one more indication in favor of the idea that fermented colm is a healthy food that we can include in the context of a balanced and varied diet. Fermented foods are not just a contribution of nutrients metabolized by the microorganisms responsible for fermentation, they can also contribute to us as Probiotics beneficial bacteria that perform similar processes in our digestive system.

Your participations are increasingly problematic and there is no good solution

by

It may be The voting systemit may be the opposition of some rebel televisions, but what is indisputable is that Eurovision has a problem with Israel. A hot potato that generates controversy and division between fans and is the main reason that this year, a couple of days after the celebration of the contest, we have stopped talking about music. However, the history of Israel and Eurovision goes back far back in time. Why does Israel participate in Eurovision? Israel is not a European country and yet Participate in full in the contest. This is due to the fact that it belongs since 1957 to the European Broadcasting Union (URU), the organization that produces and regulates the festival, an international corporation of broadcasting of ownership and public service, but without linking to the European Union. Countries such as Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Australia participate under the same conditions. A long history. Israel debuted in the contest in 1973, being the first non -European country to do so. Since then, he has competed more than fifty. They have won in four: 1978: Izhar Cohen & The Alphabeta with ‘A-Ba-Ni-Bi’ (157 points). 1979: Gali Atari & Milk and Honey with ‘Hallelujah’ (125 points). 1998: Dana International with ‘Diva’ (174 points). 2018: Netta with “Toy” (529 points: 212 of the jury and 317 of the Televoto). Thanks to this they have had the opportunity to celebrate the contest three times, in Jerusalem (1979 and 1999) and Tel Aviv (2019). They resigned to do so in 1980, for coinciding the festival with the day of the memory of the Jewish holocaust. His career is especially remarkablereaching Top 10 on twenty occasions. Comparisons with Russia. Israel’s presence in Eurovision has been criticized since 2023, when The war started in the Gaza Strip. The first thing that was accused of Eurovision was of a certain hypocrisy for not expelling Israel as it had done in 2022, vending Russia After the invasion of Ukraine. The justification of Eurovision was that the contest is a competition between public broadcasters, not governments, and that Israeli public television (Kan) continues to meet the requirements of editorial independence and public service that, however, considers that Russian public chains have lost. Songs with problems. Already that same 2023, the song with which Israel participated in the contest, ‘Hurricane’, played by Eden Golan, He gave problems because it was suspected that its lyrics contained evening allusions to the attacks of October 7. The lyrics and the video clip used metaphors that reminded the young people fleeing from the attack at the Nova Music Festival, where Eden was one of the survivors. Finally, Israel maintained its participation after threatening to retire Yes ‘Hurricane’ was disqualified. Too many interests. But if your participation is so problematic, why don’t Eurovision exclude Israel? This is a network of interests where the sponsorship and financing of the festival stands out: since 2020, the main Eurovision sponsor is Moroccanoil, a company of cosmetics of Israeli origin that performs 80% of its production in Israel and has a continuous presence in the contest, from its appearance in all the curtains and scenarios to the styling of the artists. The brand has been accused of manufacturing in occupied Palestinian territories. Different sources point out that Moroccanoil would withdraw a very juicy sponsorship if Israel was expelled from the contest. The Eurofans protest. Next to the controversial votes, in social networks A series of videos have been seen that they result in the idea that the televoto has little to do with the desire of the authentic fans of the contest: constant boos In Israel’s performance, Palestinian flags that they have not been able to be hidden by realization, expulsions of spectators In essays … the contrast between Eurofans (even among those who advocate The impossible: that the contest is apolitic) and the televoto mediated by pro-Israeli media and organs is more pronounced than ever. It has its fans. But of course, there is the other side of the equation: we cannot forget that, despite the protests of many Eurofans, Israel has won the contest with authentic classics. Especially notorious was Dana International’s performance in 1998, which was a step forward in the LGTBI representation in Eurovision, giving to a large extent the contest we know today. Eurovision is largely its LGTBI audience, and Israel took a giant step in its day in that direction, something that many followers still remember and thank. It is also unfair to say that the entire televoto, however broken the system, was mediated by political interests: the trajectory at the Israel Festival demonstrates that their themes have genuine defenders: the controversy of its presence only dates back a couple of years ago, but historically Israel has gone well stopped the voting since the seventies. The protests of Spain and Belgium, in short, are exceptions: most European governments support Israel’s policy, and that also influences the positioning of their voters in Eurovision.

We are increasingly sure that Mars hides a lot of water underground. The last track has been given to us an earthquake

by

There was a remote time in which Mars, today desert, had rivers and seas. We know some of the remnants that have remained, such as the Jezero river delta that explores the Rover Perseverance But that water may have been more than mere traces. A lot more. New tests. A geological study conducted thanks to the propagation of seismic waves on the red planet has obtained new evidence of the existence of water on Mars. Although the study itself does not imply a definitive test, it joins the list of studies that indicate that the neighboring planet is not as dry as it seems. A wet past. The Martian oceans had a short duration In geological terms. According to estimates, these would have disappeared between 4,100 and 3,000 million years ago (our solar system has about 4.6 billion years), in periods called Noeic and Hesperic. The lower gravitational attraction and the lack of a magnetic field that protect the Martian seas of the solar wind left Mars without superficial oceans. But from that water there was more than a handful of marks in the geography of the red planet: the water in solid state lasts ice -shaped either Integrated into its minerals. The enigma of the missing water. Some researchers detected a problem, and it is the difficulty that the sum of evaporated water, frozen or embedded in minerals could represent the total water that was once on Mars, they explain In an article for The conversation Hrvoje Tkalčić and Weijia Sun, co -authors of the recent geological study on water on Mars. Insight, to the rescue. In his recent study, the team took advantage of the data captured by the seismometer that the probe Insight He kept operating on Mars during his activity. During this period, Mars suffered an earthquake and received the impact of several meteorites, events whose seismic waves were recorded by the instrument aboard the now deceased probe. Studying the spread of these leads, the team identified an “anomaly” in a layer of the Martian subsoil located between 5.4 and 8 kilometers under the surface. It is a “low speed layer” that, according to the hypothesis proposed by the equipment would correspond to a layer of porous rock stuffed with water, “like a saturated sponge” or “something similar to the aquifers of the earth.” A lot of water. This layer could hide a significant amount of water, enough to house the water that dfalta in the accounts of the experts. “We have calculated that the ‘aquífera’ in Mars could house enough water to cover the planet in a global ocean of a depth of between 520 and 780 m, several times more water that keeps the Antarctic ice layer.” The details of the study will be published In an article In the magazine National Science Reviewbut for now we have to settle for a draft. Tests accumulate. This It is not the first time that we get evidence of the existence of vast amounts of water in the Martian subsoil. A little over a year agoa study conducted from the data of the European probe Mars Express reached a similar conclusion, that of the existence of huge amounts of water, enough to create an ocean of several hundred meters deep, in the Martian subsoil.

diurnal solar surpluses, night spikes … and increasingly cheaper batteries

by

For years, conversation about the future of Spanish electricity has been reduced to fear of two words: “China photovoltaic”. Panels cheap and reasonably efficient. But the final weapon is not arriving in containers from Shanghai, but increasingly frequently in the van of a neighborhood installer: lithium batteries packs that allow reducing the dependence of the conventional electricity grid. Cut the cable. Or, at least, loosen it. The cheaper that changes the rules Past, present and future of the storage price: 2015: Storing a kilowatt-Hora cost more than 1,100 dollars/kWh. 2024: according to Bloombergnefthe average price of the pack was at 115 dollars/kWh (about 105 euros/kWh), after a 20% drop in the last year. 2026-2027: By then, the same consultant estimates that the psychological bar of the 100 dollars/kWh will be broken. With these prices, Storing domestic energy costs less than the term valley of the PVPC ratewhich now ranges between 0.11 and approximately 0.13 euros/kWh. That makes the battery the natural complement of any roof with panels and a direct enemy of the demand managed by the distributors. To understand the impact of this cheaper on the accounts of the companies in the sector, you have to understand how they earn money. Iberdrola. Its 2024 ebitda, According to its annual resultsit was almost 17,000 million euros, broken down like this: Networks: 6,423 million euros. 38% of the total. Generation and customers: 10,425 million euros. 62%. 52% of Iberdrola’s investment goes to networks, its most stable and regulated segment. Endesa. Its 2024 Ebitda reached 5,300 million euros, with a similar distribution: Electric distribution: 1,750 million (approximately 33%). The rest comes mainly from generation and marketing. Naturgy. With an Ebitda of 5,400 million in 2024: ELECTRIC NETWORKS AND GAS: They represent approximately 45% of the business. The company has increased its investment in this segment by 15% compared to the previous year. For all these companies, Each kilowatt-hora that does not circulate through its networks directly impacts its profitability. Today, the threat is hypothetical, but tomorrow it will be arithmetic. Battery and panel: the combo that takes off According to data from Auto: In 2021, only 2% of residential facilities included battery. In 2024 that figure reached 71%. And they are not just coastal chalets, hybrid kits reach peripheral single -family and even communities of pioneering neighbors. With subsidies and 2.0TD rateamortization drops between 6 and 8 years, and energy self -sufficiency touches 80% in optimal conditions. Electric grid as electron pipe begins to stagger. And not only because of the fall in the demand managed, but because the flow is reversed. In the moments of sun and low demand, thousands of homes are beginning to return energy to the network or simply not need it. For a company that invests billions in transport and distribution infrastructures, that is a problem. But the regulatory framework is starting to move. And your address is not clear. The CNMC has on the table The new toll methodology for the period 2026–2031. Among the Options in consultation: Move part of the fixed costs of the network at the end of power, and begin to remunerate flexibility services, such as storage or coordinated discharge of domestic batteries. They are two changes with opposite consequences: The first penalizes the self -consumer with drums, although he barely consumes. The second rewards it, if your battery helps to balance the network at critical moments. Everything will depend on how normative design is related. And who is heard more. But for now, the government Last the arrival of aid for energy storage through 700 million Feder funds. This transformation is not an isolated case. Several European and American electricity have understood the message before the Spanish. And they have begun to move. Nextera has already hired 81 GW from Solar With storage for 2027, with a good part behind the accountant. That is, in homes. Enel x He has launched virtual power plants pilots (VPPS) In Italy and agreements to display regulated batteries. EDF He is exploring flexibility markets in the United Kingdom and France. In Spain, Endesa has timidly begun to explore this land with its project FlexiCy In Malaga. The background logic is clear: The network will remain necessary, but less as a unidirectional route and more as a smart platform for exchange and balance. And the interesting thing It is not so much the exact point in which we are, but the slope of the curve. According to The International Energy Agencyto meet the objectives set in COP28, world storage capacity It must be multiplied by six before 2030. Of which 1,200 GW must come from batteries. Spain, with its diurnal solar surpluses and nocturnal peaks of consumption, is one of the most fertile land in Europe for that transition. Despite the fear of these years to the threat that came by boat – Chinese plates – the real threat is the one that arrives in a van. In lithium, phosphate and iron packages that allow each home to keep their own energy. In that context, The network business is focused on a transformation: to bill kilowatts to offer guarantees of energy continuity. And there is the key: whoever adapts to the new model will not only resist better. You can also lead it. In Xataka | We have second to second the data on the great blackout in Spain.

In favor and against an increasingly international and ‘desestationalized’ diet

by

Yesterday There were creeks in the supermarket. Round, orange and bittersweet, the fruits of the loquat of Japan are one of those little miracles that gives us May. And I know it is an anecdote: a handful of thousands of tons of an absurdly seasonal product distributed by the supermarkets of five or six Spanish provinces. But it made me smile, first; And frown, later. Because yesterday, looking at those two bars in the middle of the ocean of fruits and vegetables, I realize that we almost always eat the same. Yes, a varied and balanced diet: provided we do not get out of the same 20 or 30 fruit and vegetable references. There is a battle in the world of distribution forever, let’s eat the same; so that our diet is the most standardized the same; so that there are no media in the supermarket. It may seem exaggerated, but there are examples to thousands. If we think about it, the idea of ​​being able to go down to the store and find avocados whatever the time of the year is almost magical. Avocado flowering in Spain It occurs in April. Also in March and May, but especially in April. The collection and marketing, on the other hand, goes from October to March. What happens in the spring and summer months? Where do the avocados that fill the shelves of the supermarkets come from? The answer is that of Peru. Of other sites, but fundamentally from Peru. The market and globalization has achieved something incredibly difficult: to be able to have seasonal products throughout the year. Sometimes, bringing them from other areas of the world (as in the case of avocado); Other times, looking for macrovarities that allow their cultivation throughout the year. That is what happens with potatoes (extra -time, early, half -season and late) and tomatoes. The Jungle Law. In this sense, international trade and international coordination select products with the ability to generate sufficient demand to ensure its supply during the year is profitable. As not all products allow it, nor all consumer groups are large enough: the current result is that many traditional products can only be found at the local level and those of great consumption The shelves of the supermarkets fill half the world. In our pantry there is a fierce knife fight from which only the most suitable products for these plethoric market societies come out. Is such a standardized diet ‘a good idea? Without a doubt, it has positive things. For the love of God, we can eat avocados at any month of the yearHow are you not going to have positive things? For thousands of years humanity has had to eat what it touched, but now we are very close to simply eat what we feel like. And that, even in a subject so crossed by cultural, social and personal factors Like food, it limits the future of gastronomy: it unifies it little by little, it makes it less diverse and more insecure. But, without a doubt, more appealing: a breakfast buffet in a hotel of many stars: the best – the most popular – of each kitchen in the world. While science fiction writers imagined a future with astronaut food, A kind of Soylent with steroids. What we are discovering is that the diet is changing, yes; But towards the promise that in the end We will all eat more or less the same.

We are increasingly clear that our microbiome is key to our health. Our protein sources can also alter it

by

Little by little We started realizing Of the importance of our microbiota, especially as regards the microorganisms that inhabit our digestive system, our gastrointestinal microbioma. Aspects of our health that in principle They would not seem connected To what happens in our intestines seem to have some kind of correlation with that flora of fungi and bacteria that coexists inside us. Different proteins, different microbiome. A recent study has observed That the food source of protein can alter the composition and structure of our intestinal microbiome, that is, of the set of microorganisms that inhabits our digestive system. The experiment, conducted with mice, observed important variations in the microbiota associated with changes in the diet. “The composition of gastric microbiome changed significantly every time we change the protein source,” pointed in a press release Alfredo Blakeley-Ruiz, co-author of the study. “Protein sources with the greatest functional effects were integral rice, yeast and egg whites.” A variety of sources. Proteins are a key nutrient that gives us essential amino acids with which our body is able to synthesize its own proteins. Foods of animal origin such as meats, fish or eggs are usually seen as the main source of amino acids, but they are not the only one. The existence of alternatives implies the possibility of diverse effects on our health and well -being. Through, for example, of the microbiome. Metabolizing amino acids. The team resorted to its study to the use of high -resolution mass spectrometry and the combination of metagenomic and metaproteinomic. Everything to find how the intestinal microbiome of mice whose diet was altered so that each week they received their single source proteins that was changed after seven days .. They observed that some of these sources were associated with important changes. These changes, Explain the teamthey manifested in how the mice metabolized the amino acids, but also in the way in which their digestive system degraded complex sugars, something that was not so intuitive. Diets such as those based on the integral rice and the clearing of the eggs, continue to explain the equipment, increased the degradation of the amino acids, which would imply that the microorganisms of the digestive system of the mice were breaking the proteins to obtain their own amino acids. The details of the study were published recently In an article in The Isme Journal. An environment (too much?) Controlled. The team responsible for the study admitted That there are some limitations to consider, and one of them is the complexity of the diet. In a laboratory environment, the team altered the diet of the mice radically (causing them to have a single source of protein). Beyond the fact that studies with animal models are not always transposed identically in humans, it is expected that forceful changes in the diet of these animals entail important changes in the structure of their microbiome. A more varied diet, with diverse sources of proteins, would logically imply more dim effects.
