Get this - just read this on the What the Doctors Don't Tell You site:

The government and the medical profession’s current recommendations for a healthy diet, which strictly limits fat consumption, are responsible for the obesity epidemic, says Dr John Mansfield

In 1995, the British Medical Journal detailed findings from the Medical Research Council about the state of the British population’s diet, particularly after the wholesale switch to a low-fat diet.

The council had made the extraordinary discovery that between 1980 and 1991, the number of people in the UK who were overweight had doubled—an extraordinary feat by itself considering that it took decades to reach half that number.

What made that figure even more extraordinary was the fact that during that same period a large percentage of the population had begun eating low-fat foods. In fact, during those 11 years the average total calorie intake in this country fell by 20 per cent. Approximately the same thing happened in the US.

Makes me think about all those "diet" foods in our food stream that actually cause people to gain weight. Usually they use the highly toxic and addictive neurotoxin aspartame. If they call it "diet" then the assumption is that it may help you lose weight - or at least not gain weight - when the exact opposite is true.

Here’s the final word on HRT (hormone replacement therapy): the standard estrogen plus progestin therapy does increase the risk of breast cancer, researchers have confirmed this week.
Researchers from the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI)—one of the largest study groups ever put together—had raised the alarm about HRT around 10 years ago, but other studies had been unable to confirm the therapy caused breast cancer in menopausal women. Some doctors, who were advocates of HRT, jumped on the findings, and tried to reassure women that HRT was safe. The result: confusion among women, who were not sure who to believe.
The WHI researchers dug deeper, and took a closer look at the women who had breast cancer detected by mammogram. They discovered that the number of breast cancer cases was higher among women who had taken estrogen plus progestin HRT, and the women were more likely to die from the cancer.

There are healthier ways to balance ourselves.

Just finishing up day 2 of a nutritional cleanse. Feeling GREAT! Lighter, clearer, cleaner. I led the cleanse texting support messages to the group through the 2 days. LOVE this photo Krista sent of Snack time. YUM!

The 10-week UIC study demonstrated clear, clinical validation for the use of our nutritional cleasning system, which showed superior results when compared with a “heart-healthy” dietary plan based on nationally recognized guidelines. Notably, our system led to a 56 percent greater reduction in average weight loss, 47 percent greater reduction in average body fat loss, twice as much visceral fat loss, and 35 percent greater reduction of oxidative stress. The study subjects also reported greater adherence on our plan and that they considered it convenient and easy to follow.

Exciting news! We are pleased to announce that the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) study that involved our nutritional cleansing system is receiving excellent recognition within the field of nutrition science.

The UIC study’s abstract won the American Society for Nutrition (ASN) obesity research interest section abstract competition. In addition, the study was selected for an oral presentation in April at ASN’s annual meeting at the Experimental Biology conference in Boston.

Experimental Biology is one of the largest annual scientific conferences to take place in the world. The event brings together scientists and researchers from fields of anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, nutrition, and pharmacology to discuss strides and contributions in the field of science.

“It’s very impressive that we won, considering the competition,” said Krista Varady, Ph.D., assistant professor at the UIC College of Applied Health Sciences and the study’s principal investigator. She explains that the abstract was chosen along with four others as winners among more than 100 abstracts submitted within the research interest section.

We have a neighborhood online debate going on about fluoride in the water. As it turns out, the debate in the UK over whether to put fluoride in the public water supply is also raging. Thought I'd share what I found:
"The American Dental Assoc. has told mothers that they should not mix fluoridated water into formula or foods for a child younger than one year – and so bottled water has been an obvious alternative to tap water, most of which is fluoridated.

The ADA is concerned that excessive fluoride can cause enamel fluorosis in an infant’s developing teeth. Fluorosis is a condition that causes tooth enamel to discolour and pit. It’s estimated that up to 32 per cent of all American children have dental fluorosis.

Fluoride in water has been linked to arthritis, allergies, kidney and thyroid dysfunction, endocrine disruption, bone damage and cancer.

And judging by the kids of America, it doesn’t do much to promote healthy teeth, either.
