High Fat Diet Disturbs Body Clock

Researchers conducted a simple mouse experiment that showed eating a diet too high in fat causes a disruption of the 24-hour biological clock. While their experiment is simple, and their results not unexpected, the meaning of the results is profound.

The Prenatal Programming of Diabetes

A new study in mice indicates that a diet too high in fat programs several generations of mice to be at higher risk of diabetes even if they do not eat a high fat diet.

Do High Fat Diets Make a Person Tired and Dumb?

A new study by Oxford researchers has shown one way that a high fat diet challenges your body’s health, leading to a decline in energy and mental function within nine days.

Chlorella as a Weight Loss Supplement

Several new animal studies show that chlorella is yet another nutritional tool to assist in the battle of the bulge. One study showed it could improve leptin and insulin function despite a high fat diet. Another study showed it prevents the accumulation of fat in fat cells (blunting the storage of calories).

A High Fat, High Sugar Diet Activates Weight-Gain Genes

It is not simply a matter of the extra calories in and of themselves. Excessive caloric intake turns on gene signals that actively promote the storage of calories as fat. If those gene signals are repetitively activated and conditioned to stay on, you are in real metabolic trouble. A new study in the FASEB journal is part of an emerging body of science showing how improper food consumption sets gene-related metabolic signaling that cripples healthy metabolism.

High-Fat Diet May Adversely Alter Your Brain Structure

In a rather sobering study scientists have demonstrated that a high-fat diet has the potential to drastically alter the architecture of the brain, resulting in poor circulation within the brain, down-regulated metabolism, and outright brain damage in areas of the brain central to appetite regulation. The implications of the study are that once a person starts eating too much and continues to do so for a period of time they are inducing actual brain damage that will be difficult to reverse – in turn locking in a poor state of metabolic health.

Whey Protein Protects Against a High Fat Diet

A new animal study shows that consumption of whey protein can offset the disease-producing effects of a high fat diet by lowering weight gain by 32%, preventing insulin resistance, and preventing the build up of fat in the liver.
