APIACEOUS VEGETABLES SLOW CAFFEINE METABOLISM:
-Carrots
-Celery
-Parsley
-Parsnip
In the first randomized, controlled intervention study it was found that Apiaceous vegetables are are able to suppress CYP1A2 activity in humans, leading to SLOWER caffeine metabolism from the body (Lampe et al., 2000).
⚡️BRASSICA VEGETABLES SPEED CAFFEINE METABOLISM:
-Radish sprouts
-Kale
-Cauliflower
-Broccoli
-Cabbage
-Collards
-Brussel sprouts
-Bok choy
These foods have been demonstrated to ACCELERATE caffeine clearance from the body via increasing cytochrome P450 1A2 activity (Lampe et al., 2000).
In both studies the mean plasma half-life of caffeine was reduced by approximately 20% following a Brassica diet, suggesting that Brassica vegetables stimulate caffeine metabolism.
💥TAKEAWAY:
With a greater understanding of biochemistry, we are able to take CONTROL of our health, and this is a perfect example of just about that.
Food is medicine. Know how to use it, and you will live a long and healthy life. Who’s feels me?!
