Eat more gelatin if you wanna reverse aging.
It's anti-stress due to the protein content without the three inflammatory amino acids:
1. Cysteine: 0
2. Tryptophan: 0
3. Methionine: trace amounts
"The amino acids cysteine and tryptophan, released in large quantities during stress, have antimetabolic (thyroid-suppressing) and, eventually, toxic effects."
"Using gelatin as a major dietary protein is an easy way to restrict the amino acids that are associated with many of the problems of aging."
- Ray Peat
Gelatin is considered an "incomplete protein" because it's missing tryptophan...
But we know tryptophan increases serotonin and serotonin... not good
Gelatin also has no fat which minimizes the free fatty acids (FFA) in circulation which are known to poison your metabolism and make you insulin resistant.
Gelatin is as pro-metabolic as it gets.
So how do you get more into your diet?
- Gelatin gummies
- Nose-to-tail eating
- Adding gelatin to soups
- Adding collagen to coffee
- Adding gelatin to frozen fruit
Less muscle meat. More gelatinous soups and collagen coffees.
