Creatine - Worldβs most effective supplement for high-intensity sports.
It's a chemical that occurs naturally in your muscle cells. Itβs made of amino acids (glycine,methionine,& arginine).
It's stored in muscles as phosphocreatine which is an energy for short, high intensity exercises as it helps your muscles more effectively harness energy.
Supports both short- & long-term muscle mass growth & offers benefits regardless of your current fitness level.
Consuming 3-5 grams/day of creatine monohydrate (most usable form) is sufficient.

Glycemic Index (GI)
It's a relative ranking of carbohydrate in foods, Actually it's a value (0-100) assigned to foods based on how slowly or how quickly those foods increases blood sugar levels.
Foods with a low GI value (<55) are more slowly digested, absorbed, metabolised & cause a lower & slower rise in blood sugar levels (insulin as well), while high GI (>70) foods releases blood sugar rapidly.
Low GI foods tend to foster weight loss, while foods high on the GI scale help with energy recovery after exercise, or to offset hypo-glycemia. Long-distance runners would tend to favor high GI foods, while people with pre- or full-blown diabetes would need to concentrate on low GI foods.

Popcorn
It's a special variety of corn that pops when exposed to heat. This happens when water, trapped in its center, turns to steam, creating internal pressure, which makes the kernels explode.
Itβs a popular snack food thatβs categorized as a whole-grain cereal but premade popcorn often contains a high level of salt (sodium) which can cause high BP & lead to other health complications. These additions (such as butter, sugar, & salt) can make popcorn an unhealthful snack. So, to maximize its benefits, make homemade popcorn without oils or additives.

What's Gum Disease?
In your mouth, bacteria are constantly forming a sticky substance called plaque on your teeth. Brushing & flossing can help you get rid of plaque, but the substance can also harden &, in turn, form another substance called tartar.
In many cases, the buildup of plaque & tartar can lead to the development of gingivitis, a condition marked by inflammation of the gums.
When left untreated, gingivitis can progress to periodontitis ("inflammation around the tooth"). Not only known to cause tooth loss, periodontitis has been linked to heart disease as well.

Ginkgo Biloba - π§ herb
It's a leaf of the ginkgo tree, which is native to China & one of the oldest plants on the planet, having potential to treat Alzheimer's disease & age-related mental decline.
It's believed that it works by thinning the blood & thereby improving oxygen flow to the brain. The brain is a glutton for oxygen, so it's possible that even a slight lack of circulation can affect its performance.
Gingko improves both attention & memory, but as a brain booster for people with normal mental abilities, it remains controversial.
