The dangers of consumption of Beef is preserved

Each of the foods and drinks we consume could turn out to contain a threat to ourselves. Based on the report page men's Wellness, this time scientists have found a negative effect of beef has become a favorite of many people in this world. Researchers from Johns Hopkins University, us, analysed the diet pattern of psychiatric patients in Baltimore.

From the results of research, researchers found those who had consumed beef preserved three times higher risk of experiencing bipolar mania than other patients. Bipolar disorder is a mental disorder that strikes one's psychic condition.

Generally marked mood swings a very extreme form of mania and depression. Because it is a medical term to call it manic depressive. Furthermore, any follow up on this with a bold research using rats as its subject. The rats were fed either a beef jerky, preserved to show the increase in bipolar behavior and sleep patterns are irregular. Based on observations, Professor neurovirologi Robert Yolken, one of the researchers, concluded the content of nitrates, preservatives used in meat is the cause of this is the case.

Nitrate has antibacterial properties, according to Yolken, a substance which has changed the mikrobioma of mice and humans. In previous research, he and his team tried to give probiotics in patients who are hospitalized due to experiencing a phase of mania. As a result, patients are less likely to be treated again in six months. Researchers haven't found how this mikrobioma the process of change affecting the brain.

According to the researchers, the bacteria may send a signal via the vagus nerve, which connects the gut and the brain. Or, the bacteria could secrete a chemical called butyric which runs through the circulatory system to the brain. This is what makes it affects hormone production setting mood called neurotransmitters.

Of course this research need to be examined again, use more samples. But a lot of research that has support of processed meat can cause cancer. So anyway, we should be wary of what we consume.
