Pine Nut Oil Reduces Food Desire
Monday, June 02, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Two new studies confirm the helpful role of Pine Nut Oil to reduce the desire to eat larger portions. Do You Eat What You Know You Should Be Eating?Saturday, May 31, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) There appears to be a very large disconnect between what a person knows they should be eating and what they tend to eat. New research is demonstrating that emotional states of feeling, otherwise known as stress eating, take priority over logic when it comes to consuming food. Refined Carbohydrates and the Fast Track to DiseaseThursday, May 29, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) A new study shows just how deadly refined carbohydrates are – even for a healthy person. One serving given to a lean and healthy young adult is adequate to triple the inflammatory response to the surge in glucose. MSG Can Make You FatWednesday, May 28, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) A new study involving Chinese citizens found that MSG intake of 330 mg a day doubled the risk for obesity, independent of diet and exercise. Refined Carbohydrates Linked to Breast CancerWednesday, May 21, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) A new study demonstrates that both estrogen positive and estrogen negative breast cancer in post menopausal women is linked directly to the size of their waistline and consumption of junky carbohydrates. Stress, Subordination, and CravingsSaturday, May 17, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) 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. Your Stomach and Cardiovascular HealthThursday, May 15, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Just about everyone now realizes that the size of your waistline reflects your degree of cardiovascular risk. A new angle on the issue has emerged and it has to do with your stomach itself, as opposed to the amount of extra belly fat. It has to do with your stomach’s hunger signal, ghrelin. Digestive Inflammation and Food CravingsThursday, May 15, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Several new lines of research are showing that ghrelin levels are elevated during digestive distress in an effort to coordinate repair of your digestive tract. Wednesday, May 14, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) 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.” Obesity Increases the Risk for Mental DeclineMonday, May 12, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) A new study shows that obese individuals have a 40% increased risk for dementia and an 80% increased risk for Alzheimer’s. Significant mental decline affects 10% of the elderly population and rates of Alzheimer’s are up 20% - consistent with the increase in obesity. There is no reason this has to happen. Ghrelin Elevated by Sluggish Thyroid FunctionMonday, May 12, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) When you eat less food, especially on a diet, there comes a time when weight loss slows down. At this time you will start getting an increase in hunger that is coming from a hormone signal in your stomach called ghrelin. New research shows that ghrelin levels go up (meaning increased hunger) as thyroid function is impaired and becomes sluggish. Big Pharma Eyes Your StomachMonday, May 12, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Scientists inject ghrelin (pronounced GRAY-lin) into the blood of normal weight people. While measuring their brain activity these subjects are shown pictures of food and the ghrelin makes them drool. Core animal pleasure is activated. Yes, they must have it. Stimulus-response, a modern Pavlovian dog experiment. Obesity, IL6, and the Cause of Heart FailureSaturday, May 03, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Extra fat does a lot more than clog arteries. Inflammatory proteins coming from fat directly damage the heart – whether you feel just fine or not. That is the conclusion of new John Hopkins Medicine research tracking 7000 obese men and women across the United States – watching them descend from no heart disease into poor cardiovascular health. Thyroid Hormone, Leptin, and CoordinationThursday, May 01, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Impaired coordination may be a first sign of sluggish thyroid function. Are you bumping into things too often? If so, you may have sluggish thyroid due to faulty leptin function. Low Thyroid Linked to Fatal Heart Disease in WomenThursday, May 01, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) A stunning thyroid study has just been published in the Archives of Internal Medicine. It showed that women whose TSH scores were in the high end of the normal range were at a 69% increased risk for cardiovascular death. Living by Fast Food is Dangerous to Your healthWednesday, April 30, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) The data is now in and it is not good for the junk food industry. The more fast food and convenience store outlets in your neighborhood the more likely you are to be obese and diabetic. The study, Designed for Disease: the Link Between Local Food Environments and Obesity and Diabetes, was conducted in California but certainly applies though out U.S. Leptin, Adiponectin, and Kidney DiseaseSunday, April 27, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) 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. Is Obesity the Chicken or the Egg for Disease Risk?Tuesday, April 22, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Novel mice experiments carried out by researchers at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center are helping to clarify the relationship of fat and disease. Mice bred not to be able to store fat, which were then fed a high fat diet, became diabetic and diseased much faster than the mice who could store the surplus calories as fat. Guess What? - A Fat Stomach Craves FoodThursday, April 17, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) It was just discovered that belly fat cells make an appetite signal which increases as you become overweight, causing you to crave more food, which makes you even fatter in the abdominal area, in turn causing you to crave even more food. Birth Weight & Early Weight Gain = Heart DiseaseSunday, April 13, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) 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. A Mother’s Leptin Problems Linked to Autism RiskThursday, April 03, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) The importance of a mom being healthy body weight prior to pregnancy and having good nutritional status and eating habits has now been driven home by a new autism study. The study showed that children who develop early autism have significantly higher blood levels of leptin. Those levels are high because of adverse fetal programming due to a leptin resistant mother. Mother’s Healthy Choices Influence Obesity in OffspringTuesday, April 01, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) 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. Food Addiction and Stress Eating Mechanism IdentifiedTuesday, April 01, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) By experimenting with mice that were bred to have no sweet-taste ability, a direct link of food intake to pleasure has been identified for the first time. This mechanism is important because it links food acquisition directly to addictive or stress-related eating “solutions.” A Fat Stomach Sets the Stage for Cognitive DeclineTuesday, April 01, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) A three decade study looked into the relationship between abdominal fat and the risk for developing dementia. The findings are not good news for any person with extra weight around the middle. It was revealed that the larger your waistline in your 40s, the greater the risk for developing dementia in later life. Bone Research Leads to Big Fat DiscoveryMonday, March 17, 2008 - (Byron J. Richards, CCN) Scientists are now linking precise mechanisms showing how immune cells stimulate new fat cells, causing obesity.
