See book keywords and concepts |  IS THERE A PLACE FOR SMOOTHIES AND MEAL REPLACEMENTS IN LONG-TERM weight control?
Eating slowly and mindfully is one of the most important ways to promote satiety and avoid eating too much food. However, high-protein volumetric smoothies and high-protein meal replacement beverages are still invaluable in short-term weight loss as well as long-term weight maintenance. Many people simply don't have time to prepare three meals per day and end up skipping meals or eating unhealthy snack foods instead. |

See book keywords and concepts |  That's important—fiber is associated with weight control and reduced diabetes, and may play a protective role in some cancers. You want fiber. But what you gain when you juice is the ability to absorb hundreds of nutrients, phytochemicals, phenols, antioxidants, and enzymes in a quick and easy "package" that goes down easy and literally fortifies your body with as big a nutritional wallop as any food I can think of or that I've written about in this book.
So, you might be asking, what about sugar? |

FINDING A DOCTOR OR HEALTH PRACTITIONER
I'm often asked about finding a doctor or a medical facility where they "speak" nutrition and integrative medicine. This is an incomplete list, and I apologize for the many great docs and health practitioners I've left out. But here are some of the ones you can absolutely rely on. |
Elaine Magee
See book keywords and concepts |  Improve weight control. One study found that women who ate three or more servings of whole grain foods a day had significantly lower body mass indexes (BMIs) than those eating less than one serving a day. (This was found in men, too, but the link was more significant in women.) Another study found that women whose diets included the most whole grains were half as likely to gain a lot of weight over a 12-year period than those who ate the least whole grains. This slimming effect was seen even in teens.
Avoid metabolic syndrome. Research has found that metabolic syndrome? | | In a recent review article on several foods (including dairy) and weight control, nutrition researcher Marie-Pierre St-Onge, PhD, from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, noted that although a meta-analysis has not linked overall calcium consumption with greater weight loss, there is increasing evidence that calcium from dairy products may play a role in weight regulation.
Go with low-fat dairy. |
Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S.
See book keywords and concepts | | When I wrote the chapter on supplements for Living the Low Curb Life: Choosing the Diet That's Right for You from Atkins to Zone, I stated that the number-one supplement for weight control was ... (drum roll, please) ... fiber. Plain, old-fashioned, grandmother-endorsed fiber (which in grandma's day was called roughage). I've changed my opinion about a few things since writing that book—notably on CLA and HCA—but I haven't changed my mind about fiber. It's not expensive, it's not exotic, it's not sexy, but it works like a charm. |
Dr. Steven R. Gundry
See book keywords and concepts |  I'm convinced that transitioning from calorie-dense food to calorie-sparse food leads to not only long-term weight control but also to long-term thriving health.
The average bag of pre-washed romaine lettuce contains about 35 calories, evenly divided between protein and carbohydrates. Yes, there is plenty of protein in leaves; just look again at those muscles on gorillas if you don't believe me. Speaking of which-remember I grew up in Omaha-how do you get animals to gain fat rapidly? Not by grazing on the range. |

Seven Keys to Successful Change
1. Make both short-term and long-term goals.
2. Know what you need to do and what you need to avoid to achieve change.
3. Ask for support from family and friends.
4. Have realistic expectations.
5. Stay motivated even if you don't see immediate results.
6. Recognize that change can be difficult, but you must stay the course.
7. Believe that you really can change. |

Bottom Line Health
See book keywords and concepts | | Katherine Nori, an internist at William Beaumont Hospital's weight control Center in Royal Oak, Michigan.
"If you have diabetes or metabolic syndrome, you need to know that they are reversible, and you can improve your heart disease risk profile [even] without normalizing your body weight," Roberts says.
DIET AND EXERCISE ARE KEY
Both Roberts and Nori say the combination of diet and exercise is the reason for these dramatic changes. Neither measure alone is as powerful as the two together. And both say you must maintain the changes in order to sustain the health benefits. |

Stress is a huge emotional burden, so it is no surprise to find that many common stress-based disorders such as PMT, eczema, acne, psoriasis, chronic fatigue syndrome, digestive disturbances, insomnia, sinusitis, headaches, muscular aches and pains respond well to aromatherapy. Stress is also a trigger for asthma, so aromatherapy can play a part in its treatment too. |

In less than one month, people can reverse serious heart disease risk factors by making significant lifestyle changes, according to researchers.
THE STUDY
The study looked at 31 overweight or obese men between the ages of 46 and 76. Of these, 15 (48%) were diagnosed with metabolic syndrome —a collection of health risk factors including excess fat, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and insulin resistance. | | Women younger than 65 who are concerned about heart protection alone may want to forgo aspirin therapy and focus on other protective strategies, including weight control, not smoking, regular exercise, etc.
In women older than 65, the heart benefits of aspirin therapy may outweigh the risks for stomach problems.
Because women have strokes almost as often as men—and their risk of dying from stroke is even higher—they should consider aspirin therapy if they have stroke risk factors, such as smoking, high blood pressure, etc. |
Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S.
See book keywords and concepts | | Garlic may well turn out to be a useful addition to the weight control toolbox.
Crushing or Chopping Garlic Releases Its Full Potential
The key to the astonishingly wide range of health benefits in garlic seems to lie in a compound called allicin. The thing of it is, allicin isn't actually in garlic. Garlic cloves contain an amino acid called alliin. When the garlic is crushed or damaged, the

> o o o cn alliin reacts with an enzyme found naturally in garlic called allinase. | | Though some people believe MCTs can be helpful for weight control and athletic performance (since they are an easily metabolized source of calories that are not likely to be stored as fat), this use is controversial. (One researcher estimated that people would have to eat more than 50 percent of their calories as MCTs in order to lose weight, though others have suggested that the percentage is lower. | | Bottom line: Foods with high volume and low calories—that is, foods with a lot of water and fiber—are your best friend in a weight control program.
Honeydew is truly a high-volume food. For goodness' sake, an entire half melon has only 180 calories, way less than most desserts. (A more typical serving is a wedge, or maybe a quarter of a melon.) About 90 percent of the melon is water. But, as Rolls has shown in research study after research study, that water in the melon goes a long way toward filling you up. | | CLA supplements are among the most popular weight control supplements on the market.) When you feed a ruminant grain—even as little as 2 pounds a day—its production of CLA plummets. CLA may be one of the most potent cancer-fighting substances in our diet. In animal studies, as little as 0.5 of 1 percent CLA in the diet has reduced tumor burden by more than 50 percent.
Now that we've talked about cows, let's move on to the chickens and the eggs. Free-range? Omega-3? Let's take a look. | | They help lower cholesterol levels, help prevent short-term memory loss, and help promote weight control.
2. Wild salmon: One of the best sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce heart disease and inflammatory conditions. Rich in carotenoids, vitamins B, A, and D; good for calcium absorption.
3. Pomegranate: Rich in potassium and vitamin C, and has three times the antioxidants of red wine and green tea. Helps keep fatty deposits from collecting on arteries, thus preventing heart attacks, strokes, premature aging, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer.

The accompanied anxiety of eating too much or eating the wrong type of food may even shut down the digestive functions, which means you are converting much of the ingested food into undigested toxic waste. This clogs up the system even more and adds extra weight to the body.

See book keywords and concepts |  In the old days, amphetamines were used for weight control. They did diminish the appetite, and they also made a person feel good, alert, and more energetic. People who went on diets and took amphetamines felt great."
Problems arose, however, when the medications were stopped. "People would go into a depression," Dr. Goldwag says. "For that reason amphetamines were recognized to be very habit-forming. In order to feel good a person had to keep on taking them. For many people that still seemed okay, at least for a while. |
Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews
See book keywords and concepts |  With all the new and occasionally conflicting information that appears regularly in the press about nutrition and weight control, we sometimes forget about the basics. The bottom line of all dieting is the calorie. A calorie is simply a unit of heat energy. It's a measure of how much energy a particular food provides to your body. You need energy, in the form of calories, to keep your bodily systems functioning, even if you do nothing but sit at a desk all day. Active people need more calories; inactive people need fewer. | | Here's another issue that seems to point to how beans can benefit weight control. Increasingly, obesity is being recognized as a disease of inflammation. When you are obese, you are inflamed. Your cell walls are made up of fat and when you're inflamed these cell walls are more vulnerable to oxidation or damage by free radicals. Research has shown that beans help to protect cell walls from oxidation,49 which protects your overall health and keeps your metabolism in balance. |
