Pediatricians Caution Against Consumption Of Raw Milk By Babies, Pregnant Women December 16, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Expectant mothers, babies and young children should not consume unpasteurized (raw) milk or milk products – which can be legally purchased in 30 U.S. states – and should only consume pasteurized products, the American Academy of Pediatrics advises. Raw milk and milk products are a continuing source of bacterial infections that are especially dangerous to pregnant women, fetuses, the elderly, young children and people with compromised immune systems, the organization says. Raw milk and raw-milk products, such as soft cheeses, have become increasingly popular, because of unfounded claims of health benefits. From 1998 through 2009, there were 93 recorded outbreaks of disease resulting from consumption of raw milk or raw-milk products, causing 1,837 illnesses, 195 hospitalizations and two deaths.

Multivitamins “Should Be Avoided”, Studies Say December 16, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Two new clinical trials testing the health impact of dietary and other supplements found that most, including multivitamins, not only are useless at preventing chronic disease or death, some increase the risk of death among generally well-nourished populations. In an editorial accompanying the studies, clinicians and public health experts said the use of supplements is “not justified, and they should be avoided”. Vitamin industry representatives countered by saying a study reported last year on 15,000 men found that multivitamins reduced cancer risk. Worldwide vitamin industry sales in 2012 were $23.4 billion, up three percent from 2011. Forty percent of Americans say they took multivitamins or minerals between 2003 and 2006.

A Healthy Diet Does Cost More, But Is Offset By Much Lower Healthcare Costs December 15, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Harvard scientists have figured out that it really is more expensive to eat healthy, but not that much more – only $1.50 a day, or $550 a year. In a meta-analysis of 27 studies across 10 affluent countries that compared the costs of eating healthy versus less-healthy meals, the researchers found that healthier diet patterns – for example, diets rich in fruits, vegetables, fish, and nuts – cost significantly more than unhealthy diets (i.e., those rich in processed foods, meats, and refined grains). The researchers said the price difference is very small in comparison to the economic costs of diet-related chronic diseases, “which would be dramatically reduced by healthy diets”.

China’s Commitment To GM Crops Is Challenged On Food Safety And Patriotic Grounds December 14, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Growing public sentiment in China opposing genetically modified crops – often seen not only as a scary food safety issue but as a strategy by the U.S. to weaken China and control the world’s food supply – has created a predicament for China’s government. The Chinese food ministry -- and its agri-science community -- has long been committed to the use of genetically modified crops, and to the development of its own GM varieties. To that end, it has spent a lot of research money on GM technology, hoping to ensure self-sufficiency in food by increasing crop yields on limited farmland. More than 70 percent of China’s cotton is genetically modified. The imported (often from the U.S.) soybeans it overwhelmingly uses are GM. Five years ago the government approved safety certificates for GM varieties of rice and maize, but further approvals for commercial growing are delayed and certificates could expire – thanks to anti-GM pressure.

Many Older Germans Taking Far Too Much Vitamin E, Magnesium, Not Enough Vitamin D December 13, 2013: 12:00 AM EST German scientists who investigated the prevalence of dietary supplement use among older people in the city of Augsburg found that those who took magnesium and vitamin were overdoing it. The data from men and women aged 65 and older showed that 54 percent of the women and 34 percent of the men take dietary supplements. In both sexes, scientists found, the ingested doses of magnesium and vitamin E frequently exceeded European Food Safety Authority tolerability standards. The doses were too high in 20 percent of the females and 33 percent of the males regularly taking magnesium and in 8 and 14 percent, respectively. Vitamin D, frequently recommended by doctors for this age group for bone health, was taken by relatively few older people. S.

Risk Of Kidney Stones, Linked To Obesity Problem, Can Be Reduced By Mild Exercise December 12, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Physical activity – even relatively small amounts of exercise – was associated with as much as a 31 percent decrease in the risk of kidney stones, U.S. researchers report. The study looked at information on dietary intake and exercise from 84,225 postmenopausal women gathered since the 1990s. The occurrence of kidney stones in women has risen significantly and has been linked to obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. But a little exercise goes a long way in preventing the painful condition, according to the researchers, who also found that consuming more than 2200 calories a day increased the risk of developing kidney stones by up to 42 percent.

Wolfberries Enhance Protective Effect Of Flu Vaccines Among Older Mice December 11, 2013: 12:00 AM EST U.S. scientists have shown in a study in older mice that ingestion of wolfberries, also known as Goji berries, improves the protective effect of flu vaccines. The researchers believe the berries increase the activity of dendritic cells important to the immune system’s ability to defend against viral infections. They said the results are important because they suggest that the berries have the potential to reduce age-related risk and severity of the flu virus in the presence of the flu vaccines. Flu vaccination is recommended for older people, but the vaccine is only 40 percent  effective in protecting older adults against infection Du, X et al., "Dietary wolfberry supplementation enhances protective effect of flu vaccine against influenza challenge in aged mice", Journal of Nutrition, December 11, 2013, © American Society for Nutrition

Dad’s Diet Prior To Offspring’s Conception Is Important To Fetal Health December 10, 2013: 12:00 AM EST What a man eats prior to the conception of his child can impact fetal and child development, according to a Canadian study in mice. Researchers compared the offspring of fathers with insufficient folate (vitamin B9) in their diets with the offspring of fathers whose diets contained sufficient levels. Paternal folate deficiency was associated with an increase – as much as 30 percent – in birth defects of various kinds in the offspring, compared to the offspring of mice whose fathers ate sufficient folate. Adequate folate – found in green leafy vegetables, cereals, fruit and meats – in a mother’s diet has long been known to prevent miscarriages and birth defects.  R.

Blood-Brain Barrier Finding Means Omega-3 Fatty Acids May Help Treat Alzheimer’s December 8, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Swedish research finds that omega-3 fatty acids in dietary supplements can cross the blood-brain barrier in people with Alzheimer's disease, affecting known markers for both the disease itself and inflammation. Earlier studies found evidence that omega-3 fatty acids protect the brain from Alzheimer’s, but the new findings strengthen the argument that omega-3s may benefit patients with certain forms of the seriously debilitating disease. Thirty-three patients participated in the study: 18 received a daily supplement; 15 received a placebo for six months. The results show that the omega-3 group – but not the placebo group – had higher levels of both DHA and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, another omega-3 fatty acid) in their cerebrospinal fluid and blood.

Faster Is Healthier When It Comes To Walking – Study December 4, 2013: 12:00 AM EST People who walk regularly for exercise generally assume that it’s healthful for them, even if they walk more slowly for longer periods of time, expending about the same energy as brisk walkers in  shorter periods of time. But now a large-scale U.S. study – data gathered from 7,374 male and 31,607 female participants who reported walking at a wide variety of speeds – found that faster  walking is more beneficial. The researchers cross-referenced the data against the National Death Index, finding that deaths since 1998 were disproportionately clustered among the slowest walkers (i.e., three miles an hour or slower). They  were especially vulnerable to dying from heart disease and dementia. Gretchen Reynolds, "Why a Brisk Walk Is Better ", The New York Times, December 04, 2013, © The New York Times Company

Alternating Days Of Low-Calorie And Regular Eating Has Health, Weight Loss Benefits December 3, 2013: 12:00 AM EST People who have tried intermittent food restriction – not quite strict feasting and then fasting – have found some health benefits in the practice, though most evidence so far is anecdotal. Intermittent restriction involves eating between 500 and 650 calories a day, every other day. On alternate days eating is normal. One 41-year-old man who has tried it for about a year – after a month-long “angry, grumpy” adjustment period – has lost 50 pounds, stopped taking medication for diabetes and no longer has stomach ulcers. A British study among three groups of overweight breast cancer patients found that two intermittent restriction groups lost twice as much weight as the daily calorie restriction group. Shirley S.

A review of data from six studies involving 289 people showed that exercise could improve the ability of older people with dementia to carry out daily activities, like walking short distances or getting up from a chair. The review authors acknowledged, however, that they did not find any clear effect of exercise on depression in older people with dementia. More evidence is needed to understand how exercise could reduce the burden on family caregivers and health systems, they said.

Regular Exercise Is Good For Creative Problem Solving December 2, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Researchers in the Netherlands have shown that regular exercise promotes two main pillars of creativity – divergent thinking (multiple solutions to a problem) and convergent thinking (a single correct solution). Infrequent exercise, however, does not have the same effect. The researchers gave thinking tasks to people who exercise at least four times a week and to people who do not exercise regularly. Turns out that physical movement is good for thinking flexibly, but only if the body is used to regular activity. In sedentary people, a lot of the energy intended for creative thinking goes to the exercise itself. Lorenza S.

Study Demonstrates How Low Vitamin D Levels Damage The Brain December 2, 2013: 12:00 AM EST A new British study shows that vitamin D, which is important for bone health, is also important for the health of other tissues and organs, including the brain. Middle-aged rats fed a diet low in vitamin D for several months developed free radical damage to the brain, and many different brain proteins were damaged as identified by redox proteomics. The rats also showed a significant decrease in cognitive performance on tests of learning and memory. The researchers advised people whose vitamin D levels are low to eat foods rich in vitamin D, take vitamin D supplements, or get at least 10-15 minutes of sun exposure each day. Jeriel T.R.

Researchers found a significant positive correlation between weight loss and telomere length and in increases in HDL, the so called "good cholesterol". The findings, which need further study, indicate that premature aging caused by obesity can be reversed at a genetic level through bariatric surgery and other means. John M.

Posting Calorie Counts In Fast-Food Restaurants Doesn’t Change Eating Habits November 15, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Pres. Obama’s Affordable Care Act mandated that restaurant chains with more than 20 locations nationwide post the calorie content of all regular food and drink items on their menus. The idea, of course, was to encourage healthier food choices. Is the strategy working? Not according to a study by New York University researchers. Posting calorie content does not change purchasing habits or decrease the number of calories customers consume, especially among lower-income and less-educated consumers.

Aerobic Exercise Improves Cerebral Blood Flow, Cognition, In Older Adults November 12, 2013: 12:00 AM EST It’s no secret that aging decreases mental efficiency and speeds memory decline, a major complaint of older adults. But new U.S. research confirms there is a tremendous benefit from aerobic exercise on memory and “can reduce the biological and cognitive consequences of aging”. For the study, men and women between 57-75 years old who were generally sedentary were assigned to either a physical training or a “wait-list” control group. The exercise group worked out on a stationary bike or treadmill for one hour three times a week for 12 weeks. Measuring cognition, resting cerebral blood flow, and cardiovascular fitness, researchers found that exercisers improved memory performance and had greater increases in brain blood flow to the hippocampus, the key brain region affected by Alzheimer's disease.

Some Vegetable Oils Do Not Help Lower Cholesterol Levels November 11, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Researchers who published a study on the content of vegetable oils urge the Canadian government to rethink its advice on the health benefits of corn oil and safflower oil. The two commonly used oils have been on a list of oils recommended because of purported cholesterol-lowering effects. But the researchers found that the two oils contain high levels of omega-6 linoleic acid, but almost no heart-healthy omega-3 α-linoleic acids. Labels on corn oil and sunflower oil products are allowed the claim: “a reduced risk of heart disease by lowering blood cholesterol levels”. That claim is not warranted in the case of omega-6 linoleic acids, the researchers argue. Richard P. Bazinet and Michael W.A.

Animal-Based Diet Increases “Acid Load”, Risk Of Type 2 Diabetes November 11, 2013: 12:00 AM EST The Western diet, which tends to be rich in animal products and other highly acidic (acidogenic) foods, induces an acid load on the body that can cause chronic metabolic acidosis and reduce insulin sensitivity, increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes, according to French researchers. In a study of more than 66,000 women, the researchers found that it didn’t matter where the acid load came from – though fruits and vegetables were not the problem – the higher the overall acidity of the diet, the greater the risk of diabetes.

Artificial Trans Fats Are No Longer Necessary, Should Be Banned November 11, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Advanced technological societies no longer need synthetically produced trans fats, nutrition experts say, and the U.S. FDA was correct in urging that they be removed from the American diet. Trans fatty acids, made by infusing vegetable oils with hydrogen, were helpful at one time because the process increases shelf life and makes products like margarine more like butter.

Popular Food Bloggers Come Up Short On Nutritional Recipes November 7, 2013: 12:00 AM EST U.S. researchers who analyzed the recipe recommendations of several popular food blogs found that many of the recipes were acceptable in calories, but excessive in saturated fat and sodium. The researchers noted that the meal photos on the six blogs were probably more attractive than the actual nutritional content of the foods. Another downside is that food companies sponsor the sites, so the recipes are actually advertisements for company products. “The public should be aware of the nutritional limitations of popular food blogs,” the researchers concluded. They recommended that dietitians help bloggers modify blog recipes and partner with bloggers “to improve the nutritional profile of recipes”. Elizabeth P.

“Tearless” Onion Is Easier On The Eyes, Promotes A Healthy Heart, And Helps Weight Loss November 6, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Scientists in New Zealand have developed an onion that makes a “tearless” sulfur compound similar to that found in garlic. Consumers who use the new onion in recipes not only avoid the tears associated with regular onions, they may also be providing the heart-healthy benefits associated with garlic eating. The scientists found in lab tests that tearless onion extracts significantly reduced blood platelet clumping (reducing the risk of heart disease), and had about the same anti-inflammatory properties as the regular version. Preliminary testing in rats also showed that the tearless onion could help control weight gain, more so than regular onions or garlic. Susan J.

Obesity At Time Of Prostate Cancer Diagnosis Linked To Greater Risk Of Mortality November 5, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Overweight or obese men with prostate cancer are at a much greater risk of dying from the disease than men at a healthy weight at the time of diagnosis, according to a U.S. study. There is an even stronger mortality correlation between men with aggressive prostate cancer and obesity. Men who died from prostate cancer were 50 percent more likely to be overweight or obese at diagnosis compared to men who did not die of the disease. In fact, the researchers said, weight at the time of diagnosis was more strongly correlated with prostate cancer survival than many other factors studied by scientists in the past, including some prostate cancer treatments.

Celiac Disease Is Not The Only Allergy Associated With Wheat Consumption November 5, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Not all allergic reactions to wheat are caused by celiac disease, according to Italian researchers who studied data on 276 patients diagnosed with a unique disorder known as non-celiac wheat sensitivity (NCWS). In a double-blind, placebo-controlled wheat challenge, the researchers found that NCWS patients may be suffering from a non-lgE mediated food allergy, like celiac disease, that primarily affects the innermost layer of the GI tract. Symptoms are delayed, making it difficult to diagnose. NCWS symptoms involve the gastrointestinal tract, the nervous system, the skin and other organs. Symptoms disappear when wheat is excluded from the diet, and come back when  wheat consumption resumes.

Doctors Weigh In On Whether Sugar Consumption Contributes To Spread Of Cancer November 2, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Physicians at a Texas cancer center have issued a statement addressing some common misconceptions about how cancer spreads. One of the most common, and most fallacious, of these myths, is that eating sugar feeds the spread of malignant tumors. It doesn’t, the researchers said. Consuming sugar from natural sources – like fruits and vegetables – absolutely does no harm, and is in fact necessary for good health. But excess sugar in the diet, especially from processed foods, contributes to obesity and an increased risk of cancer. The doctors advised people to avoid processed sugars found in cakes, baked goods and desserts, and instead eat fruits that help “maintain a healthy weight and prevent health issues”.

Sun-Damaged Skin Can Be Prevented, Even Improved, Using Over-The-Counter Creams November 1, 2013: 12:00 AM EST U.S. researchers say that skin aging can be slowed, and skin that has already experienced the damaging effects of sun exposure can be improved. Prevention of skin damage – also called photoaging – caused by UVA and UVB exposure is easily done with daily application of 30-plus SPF sunscreen containing zinc oxide. Sun-damaged skin can be improved by daily application of retinol, derived from vitamin A. Retinol decreases the risk of skin cancer and improves skin pigmentation and abnormalities. It also increases collagen content, reducing lines and wrinkles. Lastly, a dermatologist can use a simple technique called fraxel resurfacing to improve wrinkles and pigmentation.

High Caloric Diet – Not Just Sugar Intake – Associated With Fatty Liver Disease November 1, 2013: 12:00 AM EST The serious liver condition known as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NFLD) is not associated with intake of sugar, according to a British study, but rather with a high caloric intake, no matter the source. Researchers said recommending a low-fructose or low-glycemic diet to prevent NFLD is therefore not justified. Instead, they found that a high-calorie diet, no matter the source of the calories, itself is more associated with the disease, and that a healthy diet and regular exercise are the best ways to prevent, and deal with, NFLD. “Our study serves as a warning that even short changes in lifestyle can have profound impacts on your liver," the researchers concluded.

Diet Someday May Be Used To Configure Gut Microbiota Toward Improving Human Health November 1, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Irish researchers report that the study of the human microbiota – trillions of beneficial bacteria in the gut belonging to a  thousand species – could transform scientific thinking about basic human nutrition, gut health and disease prevention: This has come about because of developments in DNA sequencing technology that have made possible closer analyses of complex microbial communities in the human digestive tract. Data from recent studies have shown that diet can program the gut microbiota and affect health status. Someday the  food industry might be able to design food ingredients and supplements that shape gut microbiota, improving consumer health.

“Health By Stealth” Strategy Could Lead To Nutritious Pizzas October 31, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Most of today’s commercially available – either the frozen grocery store or fresh-baked  pizza restaurant varieties – can be considered junk food, primarily because of excess salt and saturated fat. But the basic recipe for pizza – bread, tomatoes, and a little cheese – is essentially healthy. British researchers says pizzas, and other “nutritionally dubious foods”, can be restored to healthy status by reformulating without ruining the taste. The researchers did a little experimenting, and came up with a recipe using less salt; whole wheat flour; a little Scottish seaweed for flavor, vitamin B12 and fiber, iron, vitamin A, vitamin B12 and iodine; and red peppers for vitamin C. Both children and adult taste testers “gave it the thumbs-up for taste and attractiveness”.

Study Sheds Light On Effective Strategies For Keeping Weight Off After Successful Dieting October 31, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Dieters who have successfully lost weight can prevent the return of unwanted pounds by using anti-obesity drugs, meal replacements or a high-protein diet, according to new Swedish research. Scientists combined the data from 20 clinical studies involving more than 3,000 participants, who were either obese or overweight prior to dieting. The studies analyzed the impact of drugs, meal replacements, high protein diets, dietary supplements and exercise on rebound weight gain after completing low-calorie diets (less than 1,000 calories a day). Researchers found that anti-obesity drugs were effective but risky. In fact, the most effective drugs were are no longer on the market. However, “Meal replacement products and high protein diets are effective and available to everyone," they concluded. K.

European Diet Found To Be Deficient In Certain Vitamins And Minerals October 31, 2013: 12:00 AM EST A European study comparing recent data from dietary surveys conducted in eight countries has found that the European diet lacks 17 basic micronutrients. Conducted by the International Life Sciences Institute, the study found that vitamin D was the most severe deficiency, but diets also were low in iron, calcium, zinc, vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B6 and folic acid. The researchers said that except in the case of vitamin D, low levels of vitamins do not pose a public health risk generally, but may in the case of specific age groups.

Inventor’s Meal Replacement Product, Backed By Venture Funding, Hits Market Soon October 30, 2013: 12:00 AM EST A 25-year-old San Francisco electrical engineer has developed – with the help of several million dollars in venture capital – a cheap, nutritious powdered meal replacement product. Though the product, known as “Soylent”, has its share of detractors, it has also won converts who say it is not only tasty and nutritious, it is not harmful. The inventor says his product is not meant to be a total substitution for regular healthy meals, but only as a “healthier, convenient alternative to takeout and rice and beans” – which he used to subsist on. Soylent will begin shipping in December to those who have preordered it. A week’s supply costs $65, or about $3 a meal.

Turn Off The TV At Dinner Time To Combat Family Obesity October 28, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Family meals and their rituals are an “underappreciated battleground” in the fight against obesity, according to U.S. researchers who looked at the link between family dinner rituals and body mass index (BMI) among 190 parents and 148 children. Parents participating in the study completed a questionnaire on the family’s mealtime habits; they were then weighed along with their children. Researchers found that a higher BMI among parents tended to correlate to frequently eating dinner while watching TV. Eating at the dinner table in the dining room or kitchen, however,  was linked to lower BMIs for both children and parents.

Omega-3 Intake: Too Much Of A Good Thing Can Be Bad For Health October 28, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Researchers have been touting the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids for years. But a new U.S. study finds that there can be too much of a good thing. In an earlier study, mice fed large amounts of dietary omega-3s showed an increased risk of colitis and immune alteration. A new review of recent scientific literature has found that excess omega-3 fatty acids in the diet alters immune function sometimes in ways that lead to a dysfunctional immune response to viral or bacterial infections. The researchers urge people to eat omega-3-rich fish a couple of times a week. But those at risk for coronary artery disease should consult their doctors before taking supplements. Jenifer I.

Americans Are Not Opposed To Nanofoods, But Want Better Labeling, Even If It Costs More October 28, 2013: 12:00 AM EST Do people care whether their food ingredients or food packaging are made using nanotechnology? Apparently so. They’re not opposed to nanofood or nanomaterials, they just want to be fully informed, and that means better labeling showing reliable, research-based information, according to a new U.S. study. Researchers told focus groups about the use of nanotechnology in food products and packages, then asked if they thought such products should be labeled. The answer was a definite yes, though participants were careful to note they did not oppose nanofoods, and they’d be willing to pay more for nanofoods if dependable information were made available.
