I have long reported that sleep is the primary fat-burning time, especially when a person does not eat food before bed. Of course if you exercise you will burn more calories during and following exercise; but in terms of the ideal time of the day to simply burn more fat it is during sleep. Between meals during the day (assuming you do not snack) you will burn 60% glucose and 40% fatty acids. After 6 hours of not eating (such as during sleep) this ratio flips around and you begin to burn 60% fatty acids until you wake up, your prime fat-burning time if you have managed your daily eating patterns according to the Leptin Diet.

A recent study published in the British Medical Journal has insinuated that calcium intake in elderly women may increase the risk for a heart attack. The study involved 1471 postmenopausal women (mean age 74). The story has been spread by major news media and has confused and needlessly worried many women who are taking calcium for their bone health. The study contains numerous flaws and therefore its conclusion is not reliable.

Junky vitamins are often passed off as quality, and many times endorsed by a physician or celebrity. There are many tricks that low quality supplement companies use to hide their poor quality, spending more money on marketing than on what is under the hood.

Infants born premature are at high risk for cerebral palsy, a type of brain injury that has a profound effect on movement and coordination. A new study shows that IV infusions of magnesium given to the mother in early labor have a profound affect on reducing the amount and severity of cerebral palsy. This study has far reaching implications for magnesium as a general anti-inflammatory nutrient for your brain.

A fundamental health principle is having a reserve of minerals that are involved in millions of daily chemistry reactions that sustain health. A new study of 64,000 women shows that higher intakes of both calcium and magnesium reduce the risk for developing type II diabetes by 21% - 33%. Even milk intake was found to be protective.
