The Importance of Nutrition in Maternal Diets

From MedicalNewsToday.com ---

Experts in the Schools of Biosciences and Human Development say mothers to be should make sure they are getting the right amount of Vitamin B12 and Folate before they even attempt to start a family.

It is well known that B vitamins are essential for healthy fetal development. Now, for the first time, scientists are reporting that modest reductions can lead to subtle modifications to the DNA.

Researchers have shown that the adult offspring of sheep deprived of B vitamins prior to conception were fatter, showed insulin resistance and had higher blood pressure than animals whose mothers ate a normal diet. This was particularly marked in the adult male offspring.

Working in close collaboration with scientists from the Rowett Institute and SAC in Aberdeen, Dr Kevin Sinclair and colleagues at The University of Nottingham have shown that male offspring of B-deprived mothers were 25 per cent fatter and had significantly higher blood pressure than offspring of sheep given a healthy diet.

Work, Stress, and Health

From MedicalNewsToday.com ---

You might think that a long vacation is the way to beat job burnout. But the kind of vacation you have is just as important -- if not more important -- than its length, concludes Prof. Dov Eden, an organizational psychologist from Tel Aviv University's Faculty of Management.

The key to a quality vacation, he says, is to put work at a distance. And keep it there.

"Using work cell phones and checking company email at the poolside is not a vacation," Prof. Eden says. "Persons who do this are shackled to electronic tethers which in my opinion is little different from being in jail."

For the past ten years, Prof. Eden has been studying "respite effects," which measure relief from chronic job stress before, during, and after vacations away from the workplace. Electronic connectivity exacts a price from those who stay wired into the office while away from work. It marks the end of true "respite relief," says Prof. Eden, and is a cause of chronic job stress.

"If I were a manager, I would insist that my employees leave their cell phones at work during vacation and not check their email while away," Prof. Eden warns. "In the long run, the employee will be better rested and better able to perform his or her job because true respite affords an opportunity to restore depleted psychological resources.  Read more...

Comments: One of the most common mistakes that vacationers make is taking a vacation from their healthy diet and healthy living, or what little most people may have. The idea of a vacation has been lost in the desire to 'cut loose' from the stress that work brings, or the desire to work from a distance without going to the office. Either way, both situations are going to bring additional stress to a vacation when it is supposed to be a relaxing getaway. A vacation needs to be a time when we focus on being healthy - spas, massages, exercise, relaxation, a healthy diet. It should be a time to get away from work and connect with family and friends, yet not at the expense of health. This can be a time to revitalize and rejuvinate your energies so you can be more productive and/or creative when you get back to "work". Don't make your vacation stressful so you need a vacation from your vacation! Choose health, live healthy!

Awareness of Obesity Problem in Kane County

From Kane County Chronicle ---

If you get three Kane County adults together, two will be overweight or obese.

And the situation is getting worse.

With 65 percent of Kane County’s population overweight or obese – 40 percent overweight, 25 percent obese – the area is feeling the public health crunch. Cancer, cardiovascular disease, chronic lung disease, and diabetes, the top four killers in Kane County, all are linked to weight.

Unless something is done to combat obesity, children today will have a shorter life expectancy than their parents – a rare situation in human history, Kane County Health Department Executive Director Paul Kuehnert said.

“That would be the first time in our country’s history, in our world’s history, that we have reversed that trend,” Kuehnert said.

However, most people know that obesity is a problem in the country, Kuehnert said. The trouble is turning that knowledge into positive action.

“It’s not just enough to say, ‘Get off the couch and go out and play,’ ” Kuehnert said.

To combat the rise specifically in child obesity, the health department is starting a Fit for Kids program intended to get kids to eat healthier and spend more time in physical activities, rather than sitting in front of a television or computer. Read more...

Comments: The problem is at a point where we must focus on the upcoming generation, and teaching them the importance of healthy living and how to incorporate a healthy diet into everyday living. This should be a standard course in schools, not just learning about the health pyramid, but learning about the levels of health and fitness, and the potential consequences of an unhealthy diet. The course should be called 'Health Managament' and should include exercise instruction, calorie expenditure vs intake, nutrition requirements, effects of all types of fats on health, and statistics on those who are healthy and fit versus those who are overweight and unhealthy. (On the subject, there should also be a course on 'Goal Setting and Life Management', but that's another Blog).  Let's help our children get it right so they don't fall victim to the overwhelming unhealthy consumption of soft drinks and fast foods that result in obesity.

Smoking Banned when Children in Cars

There have been proposals around the world on a ban on smoking when a child under the age of 18 is in the car. (Does this mean a 16 year-old can smoke while driving, not knowing that he or she is 16?). As reported on FoxNews.com, Arizona lawmaker  Rep. David Schapira says "we already protect children from child abuse"..."I think if you are smoking in a vehicle, to me that is child abuse."

The report goes on - the bill pits private-property rights against the state's desire to protect children from secondhand smoke.

Similar concerns were raised about a statewide smoking ban that went into effect in April and forbids smoking in most indoor public places.

Some smokers and non-smokers said they think the idea of protecting kids is laudable, but they worry that it's a government intrusion on individual liberty.

California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed a similar ban into law last month.

The California law goes into effect Jan. 1 and makes smoking with minors a secondary offense, which means police can enforce it only if they pull over a vehicle for another reason, like speeding. Violations carry fines of up to $100. Read more...

Yet Neil Reynolds of ReportOnBusiness.com makes a good point that obesity seems to be rising with the decline in smoking. Are people turning to food as their comfort instead of nicotine? His point asks, "Are we saving ourselves from lung cancer and pulmonary diseases only to deliver ourselves up to heart disease, strokes, diabetes and all the other consequences of consuming lethal amounts of food - at younger and younger ages?" Read more...

Comments: Obesity and the deaths associated with being overweight will overtake smoking as the #1 cause of preventable deaths very soon. With more smoking bans being placed every where around the world - California leading the way with bans in all public bars and restaurants - obesity will certainly become the forefront of attention. What bans will we place for that? No eating candy, cookies, or cake in public places? Or soft drinks to be consumed in public? While this is obviously absurd to consider, we have to believe that extreme measures are around the corner if we don't manage our own health in a positive way.  It is possible that the responsibility will continue to be put on the shoulders of employers as good results have been seen with rewards for those employees who are fit and penalties for those who are overweight are putting individuals in a position of taking action. Time will tell. If you need to a weight loss plan to get healthy, check out the Vice Busting Diet Plan.

Australian Obesity Down, Soft Drink Consumption Too

From Scopical.com.au ---

Research released today from the University of Wollongong, has found new evidence that Australians have changed their purchasing habits for beverages, they are moving away from sugar sweetened soft drinks and instead, buying more diet soft drinks and water.

According to The Director of the National Centre of Excellence in Functional Foods at the University of Wollongong, Professor Linda Tapsell, the current study shows how Australian beverage purchasing habits have changed over a relatively short period of time.

Prior to the findings released today, the last research into Australian beverage consumption trends was the 1995 National Nutrition Survey, more than a decade ago.

"It is important from a public health perspective to understand that Australian diets are likely to be constantly changing. The lack of regular up-to-date information from National Dietary Surveys is a problem," said Professor Tapsell.

The study found that:  Read more here...

Comments: It isn't coincidental that Obesity rates have plateaued in previous years in Australia and so has soft drink consumption. Soft drinks are the #1 diet vice in the world - more unhealthy calories from this one source are consumed than any other source in the world. If you need to lose weight, start by making sure you aren't consuming soft drinks of any variety, and add water into your diet as 80% or more of your total beverage consumption, and you'll be on your way to a healthy diet and lifestyle!

Governor honors 11-year old for weight loss

As reported on WISTV.com ---

At ten-years-old, Peyton Richburg was pushing 130 pounds. He couldn't play football the way he wanted to, and other kids picked on him. So he decided to do something about it.

Now 30 pounds lighter, Peyton's story of dedication and hard work touched the hearts of many, including the head of our state.

"He's a model. He's a leader," says Governor Mark Sanford.

Richburg is getting a lot of attention these days. "I didn't think that story was go be that big."

Even Sanford wanted to meet the 11-year old "that lost all that weight." And he did, when he presented him with a special letter of recognition. "It's a great success story in and of itself, but it's a great success story that the whole of which we have not yet seen."

Peyton says, "Thirty pounds is a lot of weight."

No kidding. So what prompted Peyton to shed the pounds? He says it started on the football field. He wanted to be a better player, and he wanted his teammates to stop making fun of him. "We have a lot of obese children out there and I wanted to get out of that category, so I just wanted to lose the weight."

Comments: You have to admire that an 11-year old made the effort and had the discipline to get to a healthier weight, considering that lack of discipline at this age is the norm and certainly more so when it comes to food and beverage choices. Without knowing the exact details of his diet, other than 'cutting back on food and exercising 30 minutes per day', there is one element at work here that most Americans need - motivation. Peyton had a strong enough reason why he wanted to lose weight and that's what got him motivated. For most people, the desire to lose weight is very superficial and doesn't go to the depth needed to light that fire to take action. Too often it take "hitting bottom" to get motivated, and that's a negative motivation - many times fear of dying. But if you can discover some very meaningful reasons to you that you desire to be at a healthy weight, then you've got a good start. This is another reason that a step-by-step plan that focuses on one easy action toward building a healthy lifestyle is more likely to be successful, and more meaningful motivating reasons can be discovered along the way. The Vice Busting Diet Plan provides such an approach. Choose health, live healthy!

Hospital to Offer More 'Products'?

Hospitals and medical clinics in the Milwaukee area and throughout the country are expanding their offerings to include a variety of products, from wigs and scarves for cancer patients to specialty cosmetics.

The trend is a way for hospitals to increase revenue from sources other than insurance and government health plans and to expand care outside the hospital, said Gary Paquin, executive vice president of The Paquin Group, a health care retail consultant firm based in Celebration, Fla. Read more...

Comments: This could be conservatively speaking, good news, for patients. With hospitals looking for new sources of revenue, and offering other 'products' that are not covered by insurance, it is possible that hospitals may start considering not only products, but services that aren't covered, knowing that patients are going elsewhere to get them. Indirectly, this could lead to alternate forms of care that traditional medicine has long 'not believed' in - massage, nutritional intervention, etc. The downside is that the competitive nature of health care may lead to less quality of products and services that would otherwise be found at a care giver's practice whom knows the products or services much better than a hospital ever could. Either way, it may start opening the way for true "health" care, rather than 'sick' care that is tied to medicines, surgeries, and protocols that don't look at the 'whole' person - what many would refer to as wholistic care. This may be a stretch, but it could be heading that way.

A Gene Mutation that Controls Energy Levels?

From MedicalNewToday.com --

University of Ottawa medical researchers have discovered a mutation in a gene that is widely considered to be the major controller of energy levels in our bodies. The discovery has significant implications for people suffering from diabetes and for endurance athletes.

This study focused on the gene for AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase), which controls the amount of energy in our cells by becoming active when fuel stores start to deplete, such as during exercise. The mutation discovered in individuals from two unrelated families caused a doubling of AMPK activity in muscle during rest, mimicking a state of exercise.

The significance of this study is that "the mutation produces a decrease in the storage in muscle of fat and an increase in muscle glycogen."

Comments: Now of course, pharmaceutical companies will try to create and test a drug that could mimick this condition for the sake of people wanting to lose weight, and for those who have Type II diabetes. Not that this is a bad thing, but educating the public about the importance of a healthy diet and plenty of exercise would go much further in reducing the need for treatment of obesity and Type II diabetes. Athletes may find a drug that creates such condition a plus, especially an endurance athlete -- i.e. Tour de France? -- or blood doping may already be doing the job. We need to stop looking for the easy short cuts and start doing the sensible thing. Or have we lost all common sense?

There are many uses to the word Labor. In honor of all of those who labor, let’s explore the weight loss motivation that there certainly must be in the word itself—after all, there is inspiration for motivation everywhere, if you just look for it!

So, let’s see…a mother laboring to bring her child into the world. The act of labor was preceded by many months of preparation and growth. Like all things in life, you start small and grow bigger (or in our case, grow smaller?!?) You don’t start out 9 months pregnant, no, it takes the moment of conception to start the ball rolling. Conception…a concept…a thought…

Then, it takes security, comfort and proper nutrition for the baby to grow into an individual being able to survive outside of the mother’s womb. Hey, this is starting to sound kind of like a “diet”!

We first need to have a concept…a thought…a plan of what ‘ball we want to get rolling!’ You can’t just say “I want to lose weight”, you need to figure out your conceptualization, your plan…WHY do you want to lose weight and how do you want to grow as a person?!

Then, you need to prepare and take the actions that will allow you the personal growth you desire.

Nice way of spinning labor in to a weight loss analogy, huh?! Want more?! OK…I will labor a bit more and come up with another labor of love!

Carpenters! My favorite of all laborers! A carpenter doesn’t just pick up a hammer for the first time and start building a custom home, he must first serve as an apprentice, a journeyman and fine-tune his skill. Once he has mastered his trade, then you may decide to hire him to build your house, but would you consider allowing a rookie on his first day of hammering to build your dream home?

No, I didn’t think so. Why then would you rely on every fad, pill or potion that comes along? Trust a time tested approach to weight loss, and that is a permanent lifestyle change aka The Vice Busting Diet! That will surely hit the proverbial nail on the head every time!

And finally, a labor of love! That is what Vice Busting can do for YOU each and every day! We labor out of love for you…all of you…trying to bring you new insights into our common problem…weight loss!

So do yourself a favor, love yourself enough to do the labor necessary to realize your dreams!!

Top 10 Secrets of the Fittest

Ten of the Top 50 SECRETS OF THE FITTEST!

Secrets of the Fittest...can you keep a secret. Better yet, can you use these secrets to change your life and your body for the better?! If you did nothing else than incorporate these secrets into your daily life, over a years time, they would amount to substantial change.

2. Looks at exercise as a pleasure and privilege not a burden or chore.
3. Thinks twice before deciding what to eat and why...making sure that it is healthy and will give their body good nutrition.
4. Measures intake based on their activity, not how they "feel", need mandates intake, not mood.
5. Takes action to solve problems when things get emotional, instead of turning to food as a cure.
6. Starts the day with a well balanced meal.
7. Starts each day with positive input - from material that's listened to or read, helping them to remain positive throughout the day.
8. Drink a minimum amount of caffeine - only in the form of coffee or tea.
9. Has long term goals and a plan of how to achieve them, leaves nothing to chance.
10. Focuses on short-term goals with emphasis on completing daily actions.

Sugar-filled beverages--the #1 Diet Vice in America

NewsWeek--Which has more calories, a six-inch Steak & Cheese sandwich from a Subway restaurant or a 16-ounce Starbucks Grande Mocha Frappuccino?

Juice Plus+ Capsule. Like our Dr Oz diet approved weight loss plan, this is a healthy choice. Oprah's Dr. Mehmet Oz knows that a diet is temporary but a healthy lifestyle is for good.

Use juice plus for any pregnancy as a perfect alternative to most vitamins on the market. There is a juice plus study, actually many that validate the quality and effectiveness of the nutrition.

I can't think of a diet plans that I hadn't tried during the many years that I spent living in an Obese body. To be honest, you have probably tried most of them too! Rarely do I meet an overweight person who hasn't been on one diet or another virtually their entire adult life--but regardless of that fact; they are overweight and still trying to solve the problem and lose the weight.

If you guessed the beverage, you’re right. The Frappuccino weighs in at 420 calories, 150 calories of which are from fat. The cheesy lunch, while not exactly slimming, has 400 calories, 110 of which are fat. Even if you consider those sweet coffee drinks more of an occasional treat than a habit, it’s easy to forget to include liquid calories in your daily tally. But they can add up.

According to a recent study by the Unilever Health Institute in the Netherlands (Unilever owns Lipton Tea), Americans consume an average of 21 percent of their daily calories from beverages. And you can’t always count on diet products to come to the rescue. While most sugar-free sodas don’t have any calories, some products advertised as low-cal or light don’t offer as big a savings as you might think. For instance, an 8-ounce Bud Lite has 110 calories, while regular Budweiser has 145.

The best option is, of course, water, which has no calories and immeasurable health benefits. But if you’re looking for something more flavorful, make an informed choice. Check out the labels of the bottled beverages you buy for calorie, fat and sugar content, or look at the Web sites of popular chains like Starbucks, which often have detailed nutritional information about their products. Take that rich Grande Mocha Frappuccino as an example. If you choose a Grande Cappuccino with nonfat milk instead, you can save 320 calories. (For more information on the caloric content of common drinks like milk fruit and juice, go to the Mayo Clinic Web site.

Well, knock me over with a feather! Thank you for the validation of what we have been saying here at the Health & Wellness Institute for years; soft drinks, fancy coffees, "energy" drinks, "sport" drinks, "fruit" drinks...are all to blame for the Obesity Pandemic. And yes Virginia, you should be afraid of diet soft drinks. A local doctor referred one of his patients to me to help her lose weight. They couldn't figure out why she wasn't losing weight and thought maybe I could help. Well, it turns out she was drinking 8 DIET Dr. Peppers a day, one coffee drink and not eating any food until 2 in the afternoon. I had her BUST her Diet Vice of "diet" soft drinks and replace her liquid intake with WATER and eat breakfast every morning. ONE month later? She is down 24 pounds. Water is the solution to BUSTING the #1 Diet Vice in America and across the globe.

If people simply replaced the crap that they normally consume with WATER, we would most certainly be healthier and thinner in no time! I am sure the American Beverage Ass. has to say about this! Sidebar: I spoke with a talking head at the American Beverage Ass and asked her "WHY it is going to take until the year 2010 to replace the sugar-filled soft drinks in school vending machines with water?" and I posed to her "why not replace Coke with Dansani water the very next time the machine is empty?" Her reply, it takes time to make such big changes, that the schools have to be educated about the changes and the machines and sizes of bottles/cans need to be changed. Really?

A can of Mendota Springs would fit perfectly where a can of Coke is and a bottle of Dansani would fit exactly where a bottle of Coke is. The wheels of change move slowly, especially when it is voluntary and no one is holding them to it. And, when asked if sugar and caffiene laced "energy" drinks would be filling up the empty spots, she said "it is not part of the voluntary initiative between Bill Clinton, the soft drink makers and the schools", but when I said can you assure me they will NEVER be available in schools, she had NO answer. Teens on RedBull and Monster and whatever Coca-Cola's "energy" sludge is called....it's just a matter of time folks.
The ONLY "diet" book with the integrity to tell the truth; Soft Drinks, Fast Food and Television aka sedentary lifestyles are the top three reasons for the Obesity Pandemic.
