Pregnancy and Obesity Do Not Mix

Being overweight entering pregnancy is a serious health risk to both the mother and child. This is because leptin controls the growth of the placenta during pregnancy. It is vital that women of childbearing years eat according to the Leptin Diet and manage their weight prior to and during pregnancy...

Leptin Problems Cause Disease

A new study echoes numerous earlier studies and explains that signals coming from fat cells, especially extra leptin due to obesity, is intimately involved with diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, and heart failure. Indeed, fat itself is an active metabolic organ and until individuals learn how to regulate leptin as a life skill they are simply asking for trouble.

B Vitamin Deficient Parents More Likely to Produce Overweight Children

Proper health preparation prior to and during pregnancy has a profound affect on the future health of the child. The “fetal programming” that takes place is especially involved with energy regulation, formation of metabolic “hardware,” and the likelihood of obesity during childhood or even adulthood.

ADHD Linked to Poor Brain Development

A body of new scientific work is showing that ADHD may be rooted in the failure of the brain to develop at a normal rate, meaning that a 10 year old is behaving like a four year old and has a delay in anatomical brain development to prove it. This information is consistent with what I have been saying for some time about the importance of nutrient status in the womb, the health of the mother during pregnancy, especially regarding the subject of leptin. Womb-related issues and early life nutritional status are likely to have a huge bearing on childhood brain development and consequent intelligence (or lack thereof).

Folic Acid Prevents Premature Deliveries

New research shows that taking folic acid for 1 year prior to becoming pregnant provides a 70% reduction in the risk for a very early preterm deliveries (20 to 28 weeks in gestational age) and up to a 50% reduction in early pre-term deliveries of 28 to 32 weeks.

Cold-Induced Gene Mutations & Obesity

Numerous genes are different in those whose ancestors came from more Northern climates, especially changes in the leptin receptors. This clearly means the stronger your ancestry is linked to colder climates the more you are genetically predisposed to obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease.

Leptin, Adiponectin, and Kidney Disease

New research now shows that the drop in a fat hormone called adiponectin is associated with an inflammatory-driven decline in kidney function. By fixing leptin problems adiponectin can be elevated to natural levels and the risk for kidney disease can be lowered.

Hawthorn for Your Heart

Hawthorn berry is widely recognized as a cardiovascular tonic; relaxing your heart while supporting its ability to produce and sustain energetic output. Hawthorn berries are used in traditional medicine in the treatment of chronic heart failure, high blood pressure, irregular heart beat, and digestive problems. They also have mild diuretic properties and a beneficial impact on cholesterol.

Insulin Treatment May Cause High Blood Pressure and Heart Failure

Insulin treatment is of course required in a Type I diabetic but is often used as a method of attempting to lower blood sugar in Type 2 diabetics. Type 2 diabetics frequently have high blood pressure as part of an overall metabolic dysfunction known as the metabolic syndrome. Heart failure rates are skyrocketing in the United States. Is there a connection? A new animal study says yes.

Zinc Produces Superior Eggs for Healthier Children

Several new studies show how important zinc is to reproductive health. These studies indicate that Zinc may aid in the creation of a superior-quality egg that is more likely to be fertilized and produce a healthy child, as well as improve the future cardiovascular health of your child.
