Kuusela (físico): “Al cerebro se le puede enseñar a actuar en nuestro beneficio”


Kuusela (físico): “Al cerebro se le puede enseñar a actuar en nuestro beneficio”

“El cerebro siempre está trabajando, aunque estés sentado sin hacer nada, y puede ser enseñado para actuar en nuestro beneficio”, ha asegurado a Efe el físico teórico Jyri Kuusela, que trabaja para la Agencia Espacial Europea (ESA) e impulsa en España la implantación del “neurofeedback”

Creencias populares como que usamos sólo un porcentaje ínfimo del verdadero potencial cerebral “son falsas, porque este órgano trabaja continuamente, guardando o descartando información, evaluando y haciendo su propio mantenimiento”, afirma este científico finlandés.

Incluso durante el sueño, su actividad es similar al período de vigilia, según estudios como el publicado este mismo mes por especialistas franceses, norteamericanos e israelíes. (ver más)

Sweetener Reformulated Biscuits: A Step Towards Blood Glucose Control

In a recent study led by Catherine Gibbons from the University of Leeds, the effects of sweetener reformulated biscuits on appetite and endocrine responses in adults with overweight or obesity were evaluated. This study, conducted between 2021 and 2022 in England and France, sheds light on the potential benefits of substituting sucrose with sweeteners like neotame and stevia rebaudioside M (StRebM). The findings suggest that while the reformulated biscuits yielded similar appetite responses compared to sucrose-sweetened ones, they demonstrated a significant advantage in terms of post-meal insulin and glucose levels. Participants consuming biscuits with neotame and StRebM experienced lower postprandial insulin levels compared to those consuming sucrose, indicating a potential positive impact on blood glucose control. This is particularly noteworthy in the context of individuals at risk of developing type 2 diabetes. However, it's essential to acknowledge the limitations highlighted ...
