The Problem with the Paleo Diet Argument. Our epidemics of dietary disease have prompted a great deal of research into what humans are meant to eat for optimal health. In 1. 98. 5, an influential article was published proposing that our chronic diseases stem from a disconnect between what our bodies evolved eating during the Stone Age during the last two million years, and what we. Why just the last two million? So what were we eating for the first 9. What the rest of the great apes ended up eating: over 9. This may explain why we. For most of human evolution, cholesterol may have been virtually absent from the diet. No bacon, butter, trans fats, and massive amounts of fiber, which pulls cholesterol from the body. Now this could have been. Our bodies evolved to hold onto cholesterol. And so if you think of the human body as a cholesterol- conserving machine, and plop it into the modern world of bacon/eggs/cheese/chicken/pork/pastry, well then, no wonder artery- clogging heart disease is our #1 cause of death. What used to be so adaptive for 9. You can feed a dog 5. Even if our bodies were designed by natural selection to eat mostly fruit, greens and seeds for 9. If a lifetime of eating like that clogs up nearly everyone. When the average life expectancy is 2. So the higher the calorie foods, the better. So eating lots of bone marrow and brains, human and otherwise, would have a selective advantage, as would discovering a time machine stash of Twinkies, for that matter. If we just have to live long enough to get our kids to puberty to pass along our genes, then we don. In the 2. 0th century, networks of missionary hospitals in rural Africa found coronary artery disease virtually absent. How do we know it was their diet that protected them, and not something else? In the 2. 5- year update to their original Paleo paper, the authors tried to clarify that they did not then, and do not now, propose that people adopt a particular diet just based on what our ancient ancestors ate. Dietary recommendations must be put to the test. This is just an approximation. Four Parts: Housing Your Rabbit Feeding Your Rabbit Keeping Your Rabbit Happy Maintaining Health and.

That so much variation has been explained - the amount in the between- schools analysis is remarkable for an enquiry of this kind - is due in part to the comparatively simple nature of the criterion variable, a reading comprehension test. In fact, they do not; the comparisons between schools account for more variation than those within schools. This is because pupils, parents and teachers in the same school and neighbourhood resemble one another more than they resemble pupils, parents and teachers in general, just as apples growing on the same tree resemble one another more than they resemble apples in general. The apples on a tree in a good situation will do better than those on a tree in a poor situation, unless the latter receives special attention - an implication that is pursued in later chapters. The most striking feature of both these sets of comparisons is the large part played by parental attitudes, and the fact that it tends to be greater among the older than the younger children. Not surprisingly, there are changes of emphasis within the attitudes of parents as children grow older. Parents' interest is likely to be greater in the children's early years at school when, as the interviewers found, they were more confident about helping children in their work, because they understood it better. It yields some ground to parental aspiration as the children reach the top of the junior school. By that time the children's very success or failure in school work may increase or weaken parental aspiration. The influence of the home has always been known to be important, and the importance of parental attitudes began to emerge in earlier studies such as those of Fraser (1. Floud, Halsey and Martin (1. Broadly the same results stand out from other surveys made for us by Professor Wiseman in Manchester on a small group of children, and by those responsible for the National Child Development Study which deals with a national sample, considerably larger than ours, of children born in one week in 1. Their reports, based mainly on simple correlations, appear in Appendices 9 and 1. Everything that can be learned from the survey about parents and their relation to the schools is therefore important as a signpost for action. First, the interest shown by parents in the enquiry itself is highly encouraging. Only three per cent refused an interview and interviews were carried out with 9. Over half the interviews lasted for an hour or longer because parents were anxious to talk about their children. More than half the parents had left school at 1. There was little difference in the number of evenings when parents from different socio- economic groups could spend some time with their children; but it is rather disconcerting to find that only about half the mothers did things with their children for some part of most evenings. Similarly, there was little distinction between the proportion of parents in each occupational group who said they wanted the schools to give their children work to do at home. Yet a far smaller proportion of manual workers than of those in other occupations were in fact given work to do at home by their schools. A quarter of all parents, irrespective of the kind of work done by the fathers, were disinclined to visit schools unless they were specially invited. So far the emphasis has been on respects in which parents thought alike irrespective of their occupational backgrounds. But there were also marked contrasts between manual and non- manual workers, and even more between those in professional and managerial occupations, and semi- skilled and unskilled workers. Perhaps the most noticeable difference was in the part played by fathers in children's education. Over two fifths of the manual workers had left the choice of school entirely to their wives, as compared with less than a quarter of the non- manual workers. Almost half the manual workers, compared with less than a quarter of non- manual workers, had not been to their child's present school at all. Less than a quarter had talked to the head. What is particularly true of manual workers is true in somewhat smaller measure of their wives. The higher the socio- economic group, the more parents attended open days, concerts and parent- teacher association meetings, and the more often they talked with heads and class teachers about how their children were getting on. Manual workers and their wives were more likely to feel, when they had visited the schools, that they had learnt nothing fresh about their children, or that teachers should have asked them more. Not surprisingly, less help with school work was given at home to children of manual workers. Considerably lower proportions of parents from manual worker homes bought, for use at home, copies of some of the books children were using at school. Two thirds of unskilled workers had five books or fewer in the home, apart from children's books and magazines, as contrasted with one twentieth of professional workers. In view of the fact that 2. About half of the children borrowed books from school to read at home and four fifths borrowed books either from the school or from public libraries. Only among the children of unskilled workers was there rather less borrowing of books from school, though a substantially bigger proportion of non- manual than of manual workers' children borrowed from public libraries. It looks as though, despite the good work done, the schools need to provide still more books for home use for the children of manual workers. Some explanation may be needed about the relatively low weight which attaches to two of the three variables in Table 1. Some readers may be surprised at what they suppose to be the comparatively small influence of the school. To feel thus is to misunderstand the table. What emerged as important about the schools was the experience and competence of teachers. Most teachers have had a similar education and training, and differ less from one another than parents. The parents have usually had their children in their care for their whole lives, whereas most of the class teachers about whom information was collected had been with the children only for the best part of one school year. It must, therefore, be expected that differences between parents will explain more of the variation in children than differences between schools. It is obvious, too, that parental attitudes may themselves be affected by children's performance at school and by the contacts parents have with schools. Other readers may be surprised that home circumstances at first sight seem less influential than previous enquiries suggested. But this, too, would. The occupational classification used in the Council's earlier surveys was adopted because it was relatively precise, easily ascertainable and known to be associated with what in this survey we have described as 'parental attitudes'. It should astonish no one to find that, when these attitudes can be assessed separately from socio- economic class, they emerge as more important than occupation taken by itself. A third point that will occur to readers is whether the differences in circumstances account for the differences in attitudes. Our evidence (see Appendix 4) suggests that parents' occupation, material circumstances and education explain only about a quarter of the variation in attitudes, leaving three quarters or more not accounted for. This implies that attitudes could be affected in other ways, and altered by persuasion. Our findings can give hope to the school, to interested parents, and to those responsible for educational policy. Parental attitudes appear as a separate influence because they are not monopolised by any one class. Many manual workers and their wives already encourage and support their children's efforts to learn. If there are many now, there can be even more later. Schools can exercise their influence not only directly upon children but also indirectly through their relationships with parents.

Many moved to Southern California, where they could practice an alternative lifestyle in a warm climate. In turn, young Americans adopted the beliefs and practices of the new immigrants. One group, called the Nature Boys, who included William Pester, took to the California desert, raised organic food, and espoused a back- to- nature lifestyle. Eden ahbez, a member of this group, wrote a hit song, . Eventually, a few of these Nature Boys, including the famous Gypsy Boots, made their way to Northern California in 1.

According to Cohen, those who took LSD were mostly idealistic people who wanted to learn more about themselves and their place in the universe, and they used LSD as an aid to meditation and to creative, artistic expression.

The Mantra- Rock Dance featured some of the most prominent Californian rock groups of the time, such as the Grateful Dead and Big Brother and the Holding Company. The bands performed for free and countercultural leaders boosted the event's popularity; among them were LSD promoters Timothy Leary and Augustus Owsley Stanley III. Poet Allen Ginsberg led the singing of the Hare Krishna mantra onstage along with the founder acarya of the Krishna Consciousness movement, A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

These hippies created the largest number of intentional communities or communes in the history of the United States, forming alternative, egalitarian farms and homesteads in Northern California, Colorado, New Mexico, New York, Tennessee and other states.

Just curious if you know if both are right or if someone is in error. Thanks. Thanks for the feedback. FYI, body frame size is not a factor in calculating BMI which is determined from weight and height only. Measurement of body frame size has not had a lot of research to back it up. The wrist measurement is based on Caribbean research done on cadavers. I don't have the reference handy for using elbows. I checked Met Life and they use elbow measurements as well. They still publish height - weight tables, but the ones on their web site look . The reality is most women are small frame and most men are medium frame. Whether you use wrist or elbow, vertical height is still a factor. So the taller you are, the larger your frame and therefore the more you can weigh. Basically, in order to estimate body frame size, one would have to choose a site where there is very little overlying fat, tissue or skin on top of your skeleton. The wrist and elbow are the 2 most likely sites to reflect skeletal size. The wrist and elbow tables are pretty gross and should only provide an estimate of skeletal size. I enjoyed the Healthy Body Calculator. Not to be funny and I hope this isn't offensive, but my wife and I have often wondered. In regards to Healthy Exercise Suggestions, how many calories are burned off during regular 1. The references I have says it depends on your body weight, duration and effort. Gender is not a factor in calories burned per minute during any exercise. So I will provide you with data for a male, 1. The numbers are calories burned per minute. If you weight less or more than this, you can estimate lower or higher calorie expenditures per minute. Then do the math using the variables of your body weight, duration and effort. Calories are.

Also, canned food is not allowed other than fruit. Salted and brined foods are also high in sodium. You don't necessarily need to buy low sodium foods other than possibly condiments or salad dressings, canned soups, etc. A dietetic food is not necessarily salt free. It may mean sugar free or that one other ingredient has been changed from the . The best would be to cook everything fresh and from raw ingredients so you avoid not only added salt, but also hidden sources of sodium.

Disclaimer: you should consult any dietary change with a professional, especially if you have a health condition such as diabetes or heart disease. There may need to be an adjustment to the medication you are taking. Critical thinking is key to separating facts from personal opinions and unproven theories. With the ever increasing amount of misinformation, it's easy for people to get confused and fall for a diet or lifestyle dogma. My advice is to always do your own research and learn what works best for you - no diet plan fits all and you always need to make small adjustments to fit your needs. Here's a couple of examples that are frequently discussed within the low- carb community: One of the myths is that if you follow a low- carb diet, you can eat an unlimited amount of calories, while losing weight and staying healthy. Although it's not common to overeat due to natural appetite control of low- carb diets, this belief results in overconsumption which is never beneficial no matter which diet you follow. A great example of a post questioning the effects of high cholesterol and saturated fat intake can be found at Low Carb Dietitian. About 2. 5% of people following a low carb diet experience very high cholesterol levels. There is increasing evidence that cholesterol and saturated fat do not cause heart disease. Does this mean that very high cholesterol levels are completely safe and even desirable? Not necessarily - even if your C- reactive protein test shows that your inflammation is low, it doesn't mean that it's safe to have very high cholesterol levels. Keep in mind that low- carb diets are not just about eating foods rich in saturated fat found in butter or fatty meat. In addition to saturated fats, many experts, including doctor Jeff Volek, emphasise the importance of heart- healthy MUFA and omega- 3 fatty acids. Your Health Care Team WebMD experts and contributors provide answers to your health questions. Scott December 28, 2011. Fascinating stuff here. The nutritional ketosis approach makes some sense to me, from the perspective of human evolution (I Calorie counts are the first thing you probably look at when you look at a nutrition facts label. Food provides energy that comes in the form of calories (or kilocalories. 1200 Calorie Diet Plan Paleo Pancakes BananaDefining Total Carbs, Net Carbs, Soluble & Insoluble Fibre. Should total carbs be considered when following a low- carb, ketogenic diet? Does eating fewer carbs always lead to better weight loss & improved health? Although most people still count net carbs (total carbs without fibre), the new trend within the low- carb community seems to be towards counting total carbs. Typically, people that count total carbs follow a very low- carb diet consuming 2. So, what is the right way to count carbs? Finding relevant information wasn't easy, as the effects of fibre on blood sugar and metabolic health are still a subject of research. In short, net carbs are total carbs without fibre. There are two types of fibre: soluble and insoluble. The reason why most people use net carbs (aka available carbohydrates) is because they believe that dietary fibre doesn't affect blood sugar and our body cannot derive any calories from it. However, this claim isn't entirely accurate because it only applies to insoluble fibre which cannot be absorbed and has no affect blood sugar and ketosis. Dietary fiber is the indigestible portion of plant foods and has two main components: insoluble fiber (principally cellulose and lignin) and soluble fiber such as galacto- oligosaccharides and fructooligosaccharides (FOS), which are fermented by the gut microbiota into short- chain fatty acids (SCFAs) acetate, propionate, and butyrate. The Role of Soluble Fibre. According to FDA, our body can derive calories from soluble fibre. However, when it comes to the effects of soluble fibre on blood glucose, it's more complicated. This potential ability of soluble fibre to affect blood sugar and therefore ketosis is the main reason why some experts and bloggers recommend using total carbs rather than net carbs. What is a low carb diet, really? When can a low carb diet be beneficial? Should everyone follow a low carb diet? Or, can a low carb diet ruin your health? A Guide to Healthy Weight Loss: Three weeks on a low-fat vegan diet gets you on the road to your healthy weight goal Of the many ways to lose weight, one stands out. Ketogenic diet weight loss results before and after. My success story on the ketogenic diet plan. How the ketosis diet plan can work for you. A quality low-calorie diet may display these labels, but most. With more than 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, she. How does it work? Short- chain fatty acids (SCFAs) propionate and butyrate, which are produced by fermentation of soluble fibre in the colon, activate IGN. While butyrate plays a role in enhancing energy expenditure, propionate enhances hepatic gluconeogenesis (release of glucose from the liver). However, a recent study shows that soluble fibre helps, in fact, lower blood glucose. According to this this study, propionate can be used by the body for IGN and the overall effect of SCFAs through IGN is a net decrease in blood sugar. Unlike hepatic gluconeogenesis, IGN helps lower serum concentrations of glucose and improves overall glucose disposal. Commonly, increased production of SCFA is assumed to be beneficial by reducing hepatic glucose output and improving lipid homeostasis. Additionally, when soluble fibre is fermented in the large intestine, it produces gut hormones which play a role in inducing satiety (Lattimer et al. As most of you may know, natural appetite suppression is the main reason people successfully lose weight on a low- carb diet. Recent studies show that soluble fibre can, in fact, lower blood glucose levels. However, more studies are needed to understand the effects of dietary fibre on metabolic health. Total Carbs vs Net Carbs. Ask Yourself: What Am I Trying to Achieve? Should you count total or net carbs? It depends on what your goal is and how sensitive to carbs you are. Some people may be affected by the tiniest amount of carbs from berries while others can eat most foods without any issues. I personally prefer using net carbs which is also reflected on my blog and in my apps. My main goal is to maintain my weight and manage my thyroid condition which I've been dealing with since 2. You can read more about my diet here. In general, if you follow a low- carb / ketogenic diet to lose weight and improve your health, counting net carbs is a convenient way. In fact, high level of ketones / low level of glucose are not the most important factors in weight loss. Research simply doesn't support the idea that more ketones in your blood always lead to a greater fat loss. The most important factor in successful weight loss on a low- carb diet remains its appetite- suppressing effect. In fact, you don't necessarily need to be in ketosis to lose weight or improve your overall health - there are other important factors to consider when your weight is stalling. Many studies that show improvements in both weight and health were performed on people eating even more than 5. This review shows that not all of the studies were strictly focused on very low- carb, ketogenic diets throughout the whole trial. Here are the most common reasons people follow a low- carb diet: weight loss (fat loss)improve overall healthimprove performance / increase lean massmanage a disease such as cancer, Alzheimer's, epilepsy or PCOSWeight loss & health effects. Following a low- carb diet leads to weight loss in most cases but more ketones don't seem to adequately enhance weight loss. Accordingly, you don't need to follow a very low- carb diet (VLC) if your aim is to improve your health. Many people experience great benefits following the paleo diet with low- moderate carbohydrates. Exercise & performance. The effects of the ketogenic diet on performance are described in Volek & Phinney's book devoted to low- carbohydrate performance. It's also worth checking Dr Peter Attia's website, Eating Academy. Your carb requirements & timing of carbs depend on the type of exercise. The general consensus is that if you mostly do weight training and cardio exercise, you can fully function on ketones and don't need any extra carbs. If, however, you do a lot of HIIT or Cross Fit, you may benefit from carb backloading, as the standard ketogenic diet may not be best for you. Cancer management. Some people may follow a more restricted type of the ketogenic diet for therapeutic purposes. Ideally, the ketone level should be high while the blood sugar level should be low. Using total carbs and following a VLC diet may be a better way of counting carbs. You can find out more about using the ketogenic diet for therapeutic purposes in this post and even more on Alix's blog. What Do Experts Say? There are differences of opinion even among experts not only whether to count total or net carbs but also regarding the . Dr Volek & Phinney suggest that ~ 5. This is 2. 0- 3. 5 grams of net carbs depending on the fibre content. Most people on a ketogenic diet successfully follow this approach. This approach is different from Dr. Westman's approach who suggests that ~ 2. If you choose to follow a VLC diet, make sure you get sufficient micronutrients and include supplements, especially magnesium. You won't be able to eat avocados, some vegetables or psyllium husk powder unless you use very small amounts. In fact, two thirds of the fibre in most foods is insoluble = have zero effect on blood sugar and zero calories. As I mentioned above, although more studies are needed to understand the effects of dietary fibre on metabolic health, it seems that soluble fibre can, in fact, lower blood glucose levels. Bottom Line: There is no . How about your protein or fat intake? It's a common misconception that you can eat unlimited amount of calories and still lose weight. In fact, you can put on weight even on a low- carb diet. To avoid this mistake, you will need to understand a few basic principles and avoid common mistakes. Make sure you eat enough protein, not just fat - protein is the most sating macronutrient and will keep hunger at bay. Low- carb ketogenic diets are naturally sating and act as appetite suppressants. This is why you'll eat less and won't need to count calories which is one of the main effects of low- carb diets. In fact, to lose weight or/and stay in ketosis, you don't need to follow a VLC. One of the common mistakes people make is that some people overeat dairy and nuts when they are trying to lose weight. You may experience weight stalling or even weight gain not because nuts and dairy will kick you out of ketosis but because these foods are calorie- dense and easy to overeat (1. There is no reason to avoid non- starchy vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, bell peppers or fruits like avocado or berries. 1 Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Louisiana State University System, Baton Rouge, LA, USA Correspondence: Professor FL Greenway, Pennington Biomedical Research.

This isn’t anything new, but sometimes we need to be reminded of simple approaches that work. This One is Much Better. Who Else Wants to Pull That String. Fibrous carbs are foods such as leafy green vegetables like lettuce and broccoli that are filling, but don’t contain many calories. These are vastly different than starchy carbohydrates. Starchy carbs are foods like potatoes, rice, and breads that are much higher in calories. Since salad’s main ingredient is a low calorie, yet filling food. I never thought it would provide enough nutrients for a man and that I would lose every ounce of muscle that I had on my body. First of all, you need to add protein in the form of chicken, nuts, cheese, eggs, etc. Then you need to make a salad big enough to satisfy your hunger. I actually eat my salads out of a small mixing bowl. Finally, you have to add a variety of ingredients to make it tasty. What a Good Salad Would Look Like. I normally buy those bags of pre- cut lettuce with a variety of veggies already in the bag. I’ll take two boiled boneless chicken breasts and chop up into cubes. I’ll take around two ounces of cheese and chop up into cubes. Then I may add a hard boiled egg and chop up into pieces. I may add a 6- 1. I might throw in some dried cranberries.

The main thing to watch out for is that you get enough protein without adding too many calories for your goals. The best ingredient for a high protein- to- calorie ratio is boneless chicken breasts. Cheese is pretty calorie dense, but if you need to add calories to meet your requirements, it really makes the salad tasty. You could also add higher calorie salad dressing, but that typically won’t have the high quality protein that cheese has. Over time you will be able to create the perfect salad to meet your needs! Going on a Short Term Salad Only Diet. If you need to lose weight in a hurry, going on an all- salad diet can work very well. You only want to do this for 3 weeks max.

A Randomized Trial of a Low- Carbohydrate Diet vs Orlistat Plus a Low- Fat Diet for Weight Loss . Main outcome measures were body weight, blood pressure, fasting serum lipid, and glycemic parameters. Results. Of the study participants, 5. LCKD group (7. 9%) and 6. O. Weight loss was similar for the LCKD (expected mean change, . The LCKD had a more beneficial impact than O. High- density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels improved similarly within both groups. Low- density lipoprotein cholesterol levels improved within the O. Now that orlistat is available without prescription, it is appropriate to compare it with other readily available, potent interventions such as the low- carbohydrate diet. In addition, low- carbohydrate diets have been studied infrequently in patients with chronic illnesses. If a low- carbohydrate diet is at least comparable to a weight loss medication, it may be an attractive alternative to practitioners because it is simpler and less expensive than a diet plus medication combination therapy. The purpose of this study was to examine body weight, metabolic, and adverse effects over 4. LCKD) or orlistat therapy plus a low- fat, reduced- calorie diet (O. Our hypothesis was that weight loss would be greater in participants following the LCKD. The inclusion criteria were age between 1. BMI) between 2. 7 and 3. BMI of 3. 0 or higher regardless of comorbidity. Exclusion criteria included weight loss in the past month; pregnancy, breastfeeding, or lack of birth control; type 1 diabetes mellitus; unstable heart disease; dementia, unstable psychiatric illness, or substance abuse; blood pressure higher than 1.

L (to convert to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0. All participants provided written informed consent approved by the Durham VA Medical Center's institutional review board. Randomization was stratified by sex and presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Both interventions included small group meetings (6 to 1. Meetings lasted 1 to 2 hours and consisted of study measurements followed by group counseling led by a registered dietitian (A. C.), a research assistant (J. B.), and a physician (W. S. Y.). The counseling sessions followed a predetermined syllabus of topics (eg, nutrition label reading, eating out) that were parallel between the 2 interventions but specific to diet. All participants were advised to exercise on their own for 3. Participants and study personnel were not blinded to treatment assignment. As participants approached their goal weight or if cravings threatened their adherence to the diet, they were advised to add approximately 5 g of carbohydrates to their daily intake each week until weight was maintained or cravings diminished. Body weight was measured using the same calibrated scale (Tanita Corp, Arlington Heights, Illinois) at each visit at the same time of day, with the participant wearing light clothing and no shoes. Blood pressure and pulse were measured twice at each visit in the nondominant arm using an automated digital cuff (Omron Corp, Vernon Hills, Illinois) after the participant was sitting for 5 minutes. The mean of the 2 readings was used in analyses. Similarly, waist circumference was measured twice at the skin surface at the level of the umbilicus using a nonelastic tape. Urinary ketones were measured at each visit from a fresh urine specimen. Diet adherence was measured using 4- day food records (including 2 weekend days) at baseline and weeks 2, 1. Participants were given verbal and written instructions regarding record completion. A registered dietitian (A. C. Self- administered questionnaires were completed at group visits to assess medication changes, physical activity level, and adverse effects. Blood and urine samples were obtained after at least 8 hours of fasting at baseline and at weeks 2, 1. Processing and testing of samples were performed by the central laboratory of the medical center following standardized techniques; LDL- C level was calculated using the Friedewald equation. Statistical analysis. The primary outcome was percentage change in body weight. The sample size estimate, however, was based on the secondary outcome of mean change in LDL- C level because it has been considered a safety concern for the LCKD and has more stringent sample size requirements. Based on previous data, a 2- sided type 1 error rate of 0. L absolute difference between the 2 interventions in mean LDL- C level change from baseline to 4. This estimate provided greater than 9. Sample size calculations assumed a 3. Baseline variables of the 2 interventions were compared using unpaired t tests for continuous variables and . The primary analysis for outcomes was performed according to intention- to- treat principles; all participants who were randomized and had at least 1 outcome data measurement collected were included in analyses according to their randomized allocation. Subjects who failed to attend their initial small group visit were unaware of their randomization assignment, did not have outcome data collected, and therefore, were not included in analyses. To compare categorical outcomes between groups, we used the Pearson . For continuous, longitudinal outcomes, we used linear mixed models to test hypotheses of treatment differences over time. For body measurement and vital sign models, we used a random coefficient approach with time and treatment group included as fixed effects with linear, quadratic, or cubic time- by- treatment group interaction terms as appropriate. In addition, the proportions of participants in each intervention who achieved levels of weight loss (< 5%, 5% to < 1. Longitudinal models used all available data, including data from participants who had missing observations and/or were lost to attrition; these models yield unbiased estimates of parameters when missing outcome data are assumed to be ignorable, ie, the missing values may be related to either observed covariates or response variables but not related to the unobserved values. Because there were no estimable small group effects, the presented analyses do not incorporate adjustment for clustering. Statistical analyses were performed using SAS software version 9. SAS Institute Inc, Cary, North Carolina) and S- PLUS version 7 (Insightful Corp, Seattle, Washington). Of those, 1. 4 did not attend the first intervention visit and therefore did not learn of their intervention assignments nor have baseline outcome measurements. Baseline characteristics for the 1. Table 1. Of the 3. LCKD, n. Five participants were discontinued for safety reasons (LCKD, 2 for LDL- C elevations and 1 for a kidney stone; O. Both groups had substantially reduced caloric intake over the course of the study compared with baseline. There were obvious differences in carbohydrate and fat intake between the groups during follow- up, as expected. The presence of urinary ketones is a marker of adherence to the LCKD. The proportion of LCKD participants with urinary ketones present (. After analyzing those pill bottles returned, we found that a mean (SD) of 8. Waist circumference also decreased similarly in the 2 groups. The proportions of participants in each intervention who achieved the following levels of weight change over 4. LCKD, 3. 6%; O. Participants who attended 8. LCKD . For the LCKD participants, change in systolic blood pressure was . The LCKD participants appeared to have greater improvements initially in serum high- density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels, whereas the O. However, there were no statistically significant differences between the groups in changes of these measures from baseline to 4. Within the LCKD group, the following parameters decreased significantly from baseline to week 4. For antihypertension medication, 4 of 4. LCKD participants (9%) had an increase (new medication added or dosage of existing medication raised) and 2. For diabetes medication, 1 of 1. LCKD participants (6%) had an increase and 1. O. One participant with diabetes in the LCKD group developed worse proteinuria during the study. Similar proportions from each group reported a hospitalization or emergency department visit for any reason (LCKD, 3. O. There were few serious adverse events that may have been related to the intervention: 1 LCKD participant was hospitalized for syncope attributed to excessive antihypertension medication and 2 O. The interventions also had comparable beneficial effects on most measures of cardiovascular disease risk, including waist circumference, fasting serum lipid profiles, and C- reactive protein. The LCKD had a more favorable effect on blood pressure than the O. The improvement in blood pressure in the LCKD group (. These patterns of weight loss and regain are similar to previous trials that compared the LCKD with an LFD without adjunctive weight loss medication over 1 year. One potential mechanism for blood pressure improvement is that the LCKD may have a diuretic effect. In a previous study, we found that total body water decreased more sharply over the first 2 weeks with the LCKD than the LFD, but the levels remained parallel thereafter. Another mechanism may be related to lower serum insulin levels seen with the LCKD; hyperinsulinemia has been associated with sodium retention, proliferation of vascular smooth muscle, increased sympathetic nervous system activity, and diminished release of nitric oxide from the endothelium. In a meta- analysis of studies comparing the LCKD with an LFD, changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure favored the LCKD but reached statistical significance for systolic blood pressure only.

When precast aerated lightweight concrete panels and slabs are made under factory conditions in order to obtain a relatively fast turn- around of moulds, it may be economic to induce an early strength into the concrete by applying heat from steam to the underside of the moulds. There are many types of concrete, designed to suit a variety or purposes coupled with a range of compositions, finishes and performance characteristics. A piece of cloth, usually rectangular, of distinctive color and design, used as a symbol, standard, signal, or emblem. 7/21/2014AC 150/5370-10G. Edge of each paving lane prior to next paving lot. This causes a rise in temperature in the concrete and a resulting increase in strength. The reason for steaming from the underside is to avoid the increase in temperature creating small cells of compressed air with sufficient pressure to fracture the cement shell around the cell. Due to the weight of concrete above the lower layers this does not take place and by the time the temperature increases on the upper face, the cement has already acquired sufficient strength to resist the cells exploding off and giving a rough surface to the slab or panel. Depending upon the type of cement used in the mix, steam curing is not begun until at least five hours after casting, and even then the increase in temperature is well controlled. The extent of steam curing depends upon the climate but as a general rule it can be subdivided into 2 hours required for raising the temperature, 4 hours maintaining the temperature and 2 hours lowering the temperature slowly to avoid thermal shock.

After all, you may not have been as active as you usually are, and maybe you opted for those comfort foods over lower- calorie fare, like salads. But the time is here to shed that winter weight. And sometimes people find that despite eating fewer calories, cutting out the snacks, and stepping up the exercise, the weight is stubbornly refusing to come off — or it’s taking its own sweet time. This week, I’d like to point out some reasons why it might be harder for you to lose weight (or, why you’re gaining weight). Now, most weight gain occurs because of an imbalance between food intake and physical activity (that is to say, calories in exceed calories out). But if you’ve been struggling to drop those pounds, you might consider these possible causes: Hypothyroidism. It seems all too easy to blame your weight gain on “hormones” that are out of whack. But, as I wrote back in January, thyroid disorders are more common in people with diabetes, especially among people with Type 1 diabetes. Hypothyroidism, or too having too little thyroid hormone, can not only make you feel sluggish and tired, it can cause you to gain weight (or at least, make it hard to lose weight). Have your thyroid hormone (TSH and T4) levels checked every year. If you take thyroid medicine, take it as directed and work with your health- care provider to get your dose regulated, if needed. Not enough (or too many) ZZZs. Are you short- changing yourself on sleep? At least one third of Americans don’t get enough sleep and up to 7. United States suffer from some kind of sleep disorder. A lack of sleep does more than just make you feel tired. It’s linked to some very real health problems, including depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity. It also makes it harder to manage diabetes. So you might think twice about burning the midnight oil. In one study, people who got fewer than four hours of sleep at night were 7. And people who get six hours of sleep each night? They were 2. 3% more likely to become obese. There are two possible explanations for why a lack of sleep may pack on the pounds: first, not getting enough sleep affects the hormones leptin and ghrelin, which regulate appetite and satiety. When these hormones are disrupted by lack of sleep, people tend to eat more and also not feel as full when they do eat. Also, research shows that people who have sleep apnea, a condition where a person experiences pauses in their breathing while sleeping, are more likely to be overweight. The more severe the apnea, the higher the risk of obesity. Aiming for about 7 to 8 hours of sleep each night should do the trick. But don’t sleep much longer than that if you’re male: studies show that men who sleep longer than 9 hours a night are 1. Medicines. It’s not exactly news that certain medicines may cause some weight gain. For example, antidepressants, antipsychotics, antiseizure medicines, and steroids (the legal kind, like prednisone) are known to cause weight gain. If you take pioglitazone (brand name Actos) to manage your diabetes, you may gain weight. More recently, scientists have discovered that other types of medicines can cause weight gain, too, including antihistamines. Allergy- sufferers who take prescription antihistamines are more likely to be overweight than nonusers. It’s possible that antihistamines affect the appetite control center of the brain, leading to overeating and slower breakdown of fat. Another possible culprit is beta- blockers. These are a class of medicines used to treat high blood pressure, migraine headaches, and anxiety. Unfortunately, according to the Mayo Clinic, some of the older types of beta- blockers, atenolol (Tenormin) and metoprolol (Lopressor, Toprol- XL), may cause an average weight gain of four pounds (not a lot!). It’s thought that beta- blockers may slow metabolism. However, it’s important not to stop taking any medicines without first talking with your provider. Just because you take any of the above mentioned medicines doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll gain weight. Stress. It might sound like a clich. We all have stress, although we don’t all respond to it in the same way. Acute stress, such as missing a deadline at work or having to take a loved one to the emergency room, often leads to a loss of appetite. It’s the day- to- day, chronic stress that’s the culprit. Marriage, work or financial difficulties, for example, are the kinds of stressors that can lead to an increase in appetite, thanks in part, to the hormone cortisol. Cortisol sticks around when you’re stressed and not only does it trigger you to eat more, it signals the body to store glucose as fat (often around your midsection). Plus, you may be less likely to get up and exercise when you’re stressed out (although that’s exactly what you SHOULD do!). Stress may not go away, but you can learn to deal with it, through exercise, relaxation or meditation, or counseling. |
