Folic Acid and DHA for Cognitive Function and Alzheimer’s

New research is explaining the importance of folic acid and DHA for improved cognitive function and prevention of neuro-degeneration. Folic acid is found to lower the brain and cardiovascular irritant, homocysteine. It directly improves brain function and helps to raise the levels of DHA in the blood. DHA is known to help generate new nerve growth, improve nerve transmission and connectivity, enhance nerve-related memory factors, and reduce brain inflammation.

Hostility and Depression, a Recipe for Cardiovascular Disease

Some people have a hostile approach to solving problems. Other people feel depressed in regards to life. Either situation is pro-inflammatory – leading researchers to investigate the relationship to heart disease. As it turns out, the combination of hostility with depression is far worse than either issue alone, as it is reflective of more advanced circulatory wear and tear.

Is Running Essential for Survival (and good sex)?

For the first time the release of endorphins from the human brain in response to a two-hour run has been proven. The theory of the runner’s high has been around for quite a while but never proven in a scientific lab. In the current experiment sophisticated brain PET scans were taken before and after running. The evidence showed release of endorphins from specific brain regions known to process pain. It could very well be that running is ingrained in our genetics at a core level of survival...

Mother’s Healthy Choices Influence Obesity in Offspring

A wide range of cutting edge obesity research was presented at a Conference held March 28, 2008 in Great Brittan. The conference focused on the importance of prenatal, postnatal, and early childhood eating as a determinant for later life food choices and obesity risk.

Birth Weight & Early Weight Gain = Heart Disease

A new British study links inflammation from the womb (low birth weight babies) through early life weight gain and shows that this issue sets the stage for cardiovascular disease in later life.

Looking Back for Answers on Stress Eating

A great deal of eating behavior is buried in subconscious brain circuitry that was developed in your early life. Such programming is more like computer hardware than software, which is why many of us struggle to “change the eating programs.”

Stress, Subordination, and Cravings

Research on female monkeys shows that those in a subservient role and under chronic stress ate significantly more food resulting in weight gain, compared to the female monkeys in the dominating role. New research on humans does show that women with poor stress management skills will keep eating after they are full simply to make negative emotional feelings go away.

Hunger Hormone Helps Alleviate Stress and Depression

In a strange twist of events your stomach’s hunger hormone, ghrelin, may help to protect you against stress-induced anxiety and depression. This “gift” of protection comes at a price – eating too much food in response to stress. This new information shows just how powerful stress eating can be, as this type of survival signaling is wired to your core subconscious brain.

Regular Aerobics Decreases Appetite, Boosts Brain

Researchers documented that a potent brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was significantly boosted by 3 months of aerobic exercise – and the higher its level the less a person wants to eat and the greater their weight loss. This is the first time BDNF levels have been linked to appetite suppression – a significant finding.
