Some helpful tips:

In 1986, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) revised its nutritional guidelines, based on a consensus of thinking that each peson’s diet should conform to his or her individual needs and lifestyles.  This includes:

l  Cut back on protein: According to the ADA, protein should consist of 12 to 20 percent of your calories.  Each grain of protein equals 4 calories.

2) Eat food with fiber.

3) Reduce your cholesterol. You should eat no more than 300 milligrams of cholesterol daily.  Cut way down on organ meat, egg yolks and foods that are laden with fat.

Another Friend With Cancer

It’s far too frequent, seems like every month I hear of another person I know that has cancer.  Last month a 62 year old died of pancreatic cancer after a 2 year battle.  I saw him at a restaurant a few months ago and my guess is that he was still eating the same types of food he always had.  Not to say, that a plant based diet would have cured him, but we will never know.  I have another friend that had testicular cancer at age 40.  This person had the worst eating habits, never ate vegetables and was proud of it.  Was that a coincidence, I don’t think so.  Last week a friend just found out he has colon cancer, he is about 65 years old and has smoked for the past 45.  He gave up smoking the day he found out about the cancer, too bad he did not quit about 25 years ago.  I gave him a video about the benefits of a plant based diet, I hope it’s not too late.

All about Trans Fat

Questions About Trans Fats Answered!

While following the South Beach Diet, you’ve most likely read about trans fats and how eating foods made with them may adversely affect your weight-loss efforts. Trans fats are created when manufacturers turn liquid oils into solid fats through a process called hydrogenation — originally developed to replace harmful saturated fats and increase the shelf life of foods. Since 2006, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began requiring food manufacturers to display the amount of trans fats on all of their product labels. Here, your top questions about trans fats answered. What Kinds of Foods Contain Trans Fats? Many snack foods, such as chips, certain brands of popcorn, and commercially baked cookies, pies, and crackers contain trans fats. Try to avoid these foods and focus instead on ones that contain healthy fats, such as extra-virgin olive and canola oils. Where Can I Find the Trans-Fat Number on Nutrition Labels? The trans-fat number is listed on the Nutrition Facts panel after Total Fat and Saturated Fat. Dietary supplements, such as energy and nutrition bars, will also list trans fats on their Supplement Facts panel if the product contains 0.5 grams or more. Be aware that a label can say 0% trans fats if it contains less than 0.5 grams per serving, so be sure to check for hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils in the ingredients list if you are concerned. How Do Trans Fats Affect My Health? Like saturated fats, trans fats can raise your LDL (the “bad”) cholesterol. However, unlike saturated fats, these fats can also lower your HDL (the “good”) cholesterol — so they probably pose an even greater risk than saturated fats, contributing to metabolic problems, obesity, infertility, and many other health conditions. How Do I Avoid These Health Risks? Your best bet: Choose your foods carefully. Plan to include more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, lean protein, and reduced-fat dairy into your daily diet.

UPDATE ON METFORMIN PREVENTION OF DIABETES.

we reviewed  metformin-as-primary-prevention-of-obesity-diabetes-and-the-other-major-common-degenerative-diseases-of-aging on 3  March 2008, and have regularly posted updates on why it should be used preventitively instead of waiting perversely and negligently  till  so much damage is done that  diabetes – or its myriad complications-  finally present clinically..

Now a coalition in Atlanta Georgia has published a detailed evaluation of why at least 24 million Americans with prediabetes by strict criteria should be on preventative metformin.  And that 1 in 12 adults are only the tip of the iceberg of people at risk, the over 50% who are now at risk overweight (BMI > 25kg/sqm) let alone obese (BMI > 27kg), if they dont already have either raised bloodpressure, lipidemia, vascular disease,  or raised fasting glucose/ insulin or impaired glucose tolerance ie bloodsugar after a meal…

Since metformin is the only drug proven in 20year randomized controlled trial (UKPDS) in new older diabetics  to reduce all-cause morbidity and deaths  by a third, and in 4 major prevention trials (China, USA, India, Greece) to reduce new diabetes by between 30% and 80%)- without the slightest increase in serious risks -  it has long been clear that it is negligent not to prescribe it with appropriate instruction about dose titration from the outset, (and with other appropriate supplements- fish oil, vitamins, minerals, and other natural biologicals -like appropriate HRT and  CoQ10, carnitine etc, and herbs) -  to reduce all complications and motivate, energize  the patient  better to comply with diet and lifestyle advice.  .
