Front Page Headlines Lifestyle Links ... Books Diet Docs Weigh-in: Yo-Yo? No-No Dr. David J. Demko, gerontologist AgeVenture News Service 03-02-15 The quest for a fashion model's figure leads many women to a cycle of weight loss and weight gain called yo-yo dieting. Researchers at the University of Michigan have linked yo-yo dieting to poor post-menopause heart health. As as result, UM is cautioning all women who yo-yo diet. Those who gain and/or lose at least 10 pounds in a year-long period at least five times over a lifetime may be setting themselves up for heart problems after menopause. UM Cardiologist Claire Duvernoy found that post-menopausal yo-yo dieters were much more likely to have reduced myocardial blood flow, regardless of current weight. Reduced blood flow to the heart could be an indication of a blockage in coronary arteries, or in the small blood vessels of the heart, which could eventually trigger a heart attack or stroke," warns Duvernoy. Hey, what about guys ? !!! Yes, both men and women need to use caution and exercise sound preventative care. This study, however, focuses on women because more U.S. women than men die of heart disease every year. How can someone avoid this post-menopause health problem? The best way, says Duvernoy, is to recognize early that yo-yo dieting is not a good tool for long-term health. "Physicians of all kinds are saying this over and over, because it is the best advice: eating nutritious foods in moderation and getting moderate exercise several times a week is really the best way to stay healthy over a lifetime. Nature doesn't intend for each and every one of us to have a model-perfect figure; it's far more important to make healthy choices about food and exercise," Duvernoy says. By the way, if it has been a long time since you ate responsibly, I've included a picture (photo left) of what healthy eating looks like. Those 5, food groups that is, will keep you feeling and looking good. Most importantly, those 5 will keep you alive a lot longer.

Mother Nature's Way by Charles R. Attwood, M.D., F.A.A.P. hen the chest pains started, Mary was on her regular flight from Miami to San Francisco. At age 46, she had worked as a flight attendant at American Airlines for over 20 years without missing a single day due to illness. She had always enjoyed excellent healthor so she thought. Now, within 3 hours she would find herself in a coronary care unit, where she was told that 3 coronary vessels were partically occluded, but one, the left anterior descending, was 95 percent blocked. The balloon angioplasty which followed gave her temporary relief, but after she returned home, within 12 weeks the vessel was closing again, and the chest pain returned. Another angioplasty was done, this time with a stint. Now, Mary was advised that she would almost certainly need bypass surgery. That's when she came to me. She had already read my book, because with a strong family history of heart disease she'd wanted to learn more about protecting her family from a similar fate. Now, that she was the victim herself, she had expected her cardiologist to offer serious dietary counseling. The doctor's dietitian, however, only suggested that she eat less red meat, more poultry and fish. She was given the USDA's food pyramid, which was, they said, designed to keep her calories from fat around 30 percent. She came to me for a more vigorous plan to reduce her dietary fat. Furthermore, she had correctly assumed that her cholesterol level of 210 mg/dl was too high, even though the cardiologist and dietitian seemed comfortable with it. Both seemed virtually certain that she would need a bypass, because the chest pain was beginning to reappear during routine physical activity.

Search Articles: Click here for an Advanced Search Physical Fitness Tied to Brain Health A new study released by the University of Illinois says that the key to maintaining a healthy mind is maintaining a healthy body. The study, appearing in the February issue of the Journal of Gerontology, says that exercise plays a critical role and that areas of the brain that are adversely affected by aging stay in better shape when the person keeps their body physically fit. Researchers studied the frontal, temporal and parietal cortexes in the brains of 55 people over the age of 55. They found significant differences in the brain tissue known as white and gray matter in people who were physically fit and those who were not fit. White brain matter contains nerve fibers that transmit signals throughout the brain, and gray matter consists of neurons and cells that facilitate learning and memory. As a person ages, these tissues shrink, reflecting declines in cognitive performance. This study is the first conducted on white and gray matter tissues, but it mirrors some of the conclusions on physical and mental fitness made by previous studies. Researchers at Duke University recently studied elderly men and woman and showed that exercise has a beneficial effect on the parts of the brain responsible for memory, decision-making and other mental tasks. And researchers at the University of Maryland found that higher levels of physical activity can facilitate mental functioning and maintenance of the brain.

Consulting Services Natural Therapy for Cancer Natural Therapy for Cardiovascular Disease ... Contact Diet, Fitness and Exercise - The Health/Fitness/Diet/Longevity Connection The connection between fitness, diet, health, and longevity has been known for many generations. Documented anecdotal evidence, corroborated by extensive studies, show that humans of all races can live to 100, 120, and beyond. Thomas Parr, a poor farmer in England, lived for 152 years, outliving 9 monarchs. (He promptly dropped dead after feasting on a Royal diet for two weeks). Los Viejos de Ecuador (the old ones of Ecuador) typically lived to 120 years, and some longer, subsisting mostly on corn and milk and climbing miles into the mountains to tend their crops each day. Somehow this connection between a low-fat diet and exercise and longevity got lost, and in the industrialized countries most people's dietary and exercise habits set them on a course for heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and overall debilitation. And even as some researchers began to make the connection between our lifestyle and these diseases, we had somehow come to believe that their onset was inevitable. Then in the 1970's, a lay heart researcher named Nathan Pritikin shocked the medical community by proclaiming that he had found a diet and exercise regimen that could not only enable people to live longer, happier, energetic lives, but could actually reverse the ravages of our sedentary habits and high-fat diet. He claimed that people who followed his program had literally cured heart disease (except for people that had endured physical damage to their hearts as a result of a heart attack), age-onset diabetes, high blood pressure, and, surprisingly, arthritis.

You'll hear this advice from organizations like the American Heart Association, the American Dietetic Association, the National Cancer Institute, and the American Cancer Institute.

The American heart Association recommends lowcholesterol, low saturated fat diet to prevent heart disease. http://www.dietitian.com/choleste.html

Cholesterol, Trans Fat I have been hearing a lot about how dangerous trans-fat is, but with no explanation of what it is. Is it the same as hydrogenated fat Polyunsaturated oils that are hydrogenated can contain some trans fat, but it depends on the hydrogenation process that was used. Trans fat results when polyunsaturated oil (soybean) is partially hydrogenated in order to make it into stick margarine or solid shortening in a can. One polyunsaturated margarine though is now claiming to be trans fatty acid free. The FDA is considering requiring trans fatty acid levels to be listed on food labels , but currently does not require trans fat amounts. You can only tell if a margarine is trans fat free if the margarine has a claim on the label that says "trans fatty acid free". Research has found that trans fatty acids increases the bad cholesterol and decreases the good cholesterol even though it started out as a good polyunsaturated fat before hydrogenation. One alternative is butter. but it is a saturated fat which increases the bad cholesterol in your blood.
