Clear Protein on the Rise: What It Means for Thai Health and Diet

news nutrition

A growing trend in sports nutrition is turning everyday protein into a lighter, clearer option. Clear protein powders deliver roughly 20 to 25 grams of protein per serving, but in a liquid that looks and tastes unlike traditional milky shakes. For Thai readers, the question is not just “what is it?” but “how might it fit into our food culture, fitness routines, and family meal planning?” The latest explainer on clear protein frames it as a refined form of whey protein isolate—protein isolated from fat and carbs to produce a transparent, low-calorie drink. In practice, you stir or shake the powder with water to create a drink that resembles flavored water more than a dessert-like shake. The base ingredient is whey protein isolate, which has been further purified to remove fats and carbohydrates, yielding a product that is nearly pure protein. In contrast, traditional whey protein powders rely on whey protein concentrate, which carries more fat, more carbohydrates, and a thicker texture, contributing to a cloudy appearance and a heavier mouthfeel. The practical upshot is that clear protein is typically almost fat- and carb-free, with a light, refreshing consistency that many people find easier to drink after workouts or during hot days.

Deliberate Daydreaming: ADHD Mind Wandering May Fuel Creativity—and It Could Reshape Thailand

news psychology

New research presented at a major European conference suggests that the wandering mind often seen in ADHD may function as a hidden engine of creativity, especially when that drift is deliberate rather than spontaneous. The large-scale study looked at two independent groups totaling about 750 participants and found that stronger ADHD traits were linked to higher creativity scores when individuals allowed their thoughts to wander on purpose. In other words, intentional mind wandering may unlock innovative thinking, turning a familiar challenge into a potential strength.

Move to live longer: Exercise after cancer diagnosis linked to better survival and lower recurrence, with crucial implications for Thai patients

news exercise

A wave of recent research is reshaping how clinicians view cancer care beyond pills and procedures: staying physically active after a cancer diagnosis is associated with longer survival and a lower chance that the disease returns. Across multiple studies and cancer types, investigators are finding that regular movement—especially when started early and guided by healthcare teams—can improve not only how patients feel during treatment but also how their bodies respond to it. For Thai readers and families navigating cancer care, these findings arrive at a time when Thailand faces a growing cancer burden and a strong emphasis on patient-centered rehabilitation that supports patients’ practical needs at home, at work, and in the community.
