Speaker 1: I like asking questions. The reason why is because the
fund begins when you start researching for answers such as
how long does it take beef to break down in
our bodies? Plus? Is there such a thing as a
beef hangover? My name is Arrow. I'm a daily writer,
a silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do
nothing but watch, listen, study, then activate. I call it
the daily mass, a chronological walk through in everyday world. Yep,
it's my morning pages. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas,
we as people tend to throw things to the side
because we think we're going to deal with it later on. Well,
when a subject arrives inside of me, I know it's
time to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal,
but by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This
is the daily mass. How long does it take for
beef to fully break down in our bodies? The type
of beef is very important here. Ground beef doesn't require
a lot of time because it's already in smaller pieces.
Steaks and roasts are much different stories. We're talking twenty
four to seventy two hours to get that stuff through
our body. It takes beef two to six hours to
leave your stomach. The next stop is your small intestine,
where most of the nutrients are absorbed. That's another six
to eight hours. Then it checks in with the large intestine,
where it can stay twelve to forty eight hours. A
lot of factors come into play here, your age, gut health, hydration,
and physical activity. Just because you feel lighter after six
to eight hours after eating the beef, the entire process
can take one to three full days, which is why
when you step on the scale, it's not going to
reflect what you're feeling, but rather what you're carrying. No,
this isn't why beef is bad for us. Beef gets
a bad rap because of saturated fats and cholesterol and
portion control. Oh, we tend to overdo it when it
comes to beef. At the table, health experts saying, I
was shocked by this that we can have beef two
to three times a week it's acceptable. Coming up next,
is there really such a thing as a beef hangover? Hey,
thanks for coming back to the daily mess. Is there
such a thing as a beef hangover that sour feeling
in your stomach the morning after having beef the night before. Yes,
there is such a thing. Beef hangovers isn't a medical term, though,
it's how your body is reacting after a large amount
of fatty protein. Beef hangover symptoms include fatigue, stomach heaviness,
indigestion or heartburn, brain fog of all things, and a
dry mouth. Why well, fat slows gastric emptying. It's keeping
food in your stomach a lot longer. A lack of
fiber is another reason. This is why you should always
have veggies or grains in your body. As you physically
enjoy that big old steak or roast, your body is
physically working overtime, raising your metabolic load. That's where the
brain fog comes into plays. For the dehydration. Yeah, get this.
Dehydration pulls water out of your gut. The salty seasonings
are also one of the things that's drying up the water.
To avoid a beef hangover, eat smaller portions, choose lean cuts,
and add fiber into your sides, and do all you
can to stay hydrated. Him Maril, and that's the daily
mess
