Journal Club Slides for the article ""Grizzly Bears Exhibit Augmented Insulin Sensitivity while Obese Prior to a Reversible Insulin Resistance during Hibernation"." available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cmet.2014.07.008
This document provides information on nutrition and healthy eating habits. It discusses choosing lean proteins like chicken, fish and legumes. It recommends drinking water and listening to your body's needs. For sweet cravings, it suggests snacks like one homemade cookie or a bowl of fruit. It advises choosing a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet can be dangerous without carbohydrates. The document also provides tips on eating before 7 PM and recommends oats, corn, rice and vegetables as best "after seven" maintenance foods.
The document discusses the ketogenic diet and how it works to promote weight loss and health. It explains that a ketogenic diet puts the body into a state of ketosis, burning fat for fuel instead of glucose when insulin levels are lowered by restricting carbohydrates. This causes the body to efficiently use fat from food and stored body fat for energy. After becoming fat adapted in 3 to 8 weeks, cravings decrease and body fat provides an unending source of energy. The ketogenic diet mimics how humans evolved to survive for 180,000 years relying on animal fat and protein.
Josh Bezoni: How Carbs Affect Insulin SensitivityJosh Bezoni
The document discusses how consuming large amounts of processed carbohydrates can lead to insulin resistance over time. When insulin resistance occurs, it hinders fat burning and promotes increased fat storage. Insulin resistance is also a precursor to health issues like type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's, heart disease, and strokes. Maintaining insulin sensitivity by consuming fewer and less processed carbs helps ensure insulin properly transports blood sugar from the bloodstream to muscles rather than fat cells for storage.
The document provides information about healthy living and nutrition. It discusses the importance of eating a balanced diet that includes carbohydrates, proteins, fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and fats. It also emphasizes the importance of drinking water, exercising, washing hands, brushing teeth, sleeping well, and having a balanced snack and meal schedule. The document contains pictures and exercises to help teach about different food groups, healthy snacks, and the stages of life from babies to the elderly.
This document discusses nutrition and health. It covers the basics of a healthy diet including proteins, carbohydrates, fats, minerals, vitamins and fiber. It also discusses malnutrition and both undernutrition and overnutrition. Factors that influence body image like advertising and popular culture are examined. Conditions like anorexia, obesity, and related health problems from deficiencies or excess weight like arthritis, diabetes and heart disease are outlined. The concepts of energy balance and BMI are also introduced.
This document discusses carbohydrates and the difference between complex and simple carbs. Complex carbs are made of thousands of sugar units and break down slowly, providing steady energy and fewer insulin spikes. They include foods like whole grains, starchy vegetables, and fruits. Simple carbs have few sugar units and break down quickly, causing more rapid rises and falls in blood sugar. The document recommends focusing one's diet on complex carbs for health benefits while still allowing for occasional simple carb foods in moderation.

You are what your body does with what you eatFred Hahn
The document discusses how food intake affects the body. It notes that fats and protein are essential for health and life, while carbohydrates are not. The document recommends eating real food and lifting weights to build strength and avoid obesity. It concludes by stating that what you eat does matter for your health and physique.
Reduced physical activity, insomnia due to shortened sleep, genetic predispositions, excess calorie consumption, and certain drugs can all contribute to obesity by disrupting the body's energy balance and ability to burn calories. Obesity is a serious global health problem, with over 1.9 billion adults overweight and 650 million obese in 2016, and 41 million pre-school children who are obese as well. Obesity is the second leading preventable cause of death worldwide.

5 Ways To Supplement Your Protein Intake To Build Muscles Fast!Peter Hinds
This article provides five ways to maximize protein intake to build muscle mass. It recommends eating six meals per day, with a meal every 3-4 hours, to keep insulin levels elevated and promote muscle growth. It also suggests drinking at least one ounce of water per two pounds of body weight daily to aid in protein metabolism and toxin elimination. Relying on whole foods as the foundation of meals is also advised to provide nutrients for muscle building. Finally, the article recommends bumping up protein intake beyond whole foods with protein supplements.
The document discusses the benefits of the keto diet, including weight loss, improved brain function, and potential cancer benefits. Weight loss on keto is attributed to reduced cravings from a high-fat, low-carb diet as well as ketones burning body fat for energy. The keto diet was originally developed to treat epilepsy and research shows ketones are more efficient brain fuel than glucose. One study also found the keto diet led to increased cancer survival times and slower tumor growth. In conclusion, the document encourages readers experiencing health issues to try the keto diet to effect positive change.
Proteins are essential nutrients that make up about 15% of the body and are involved in many bodily functions. They are composed of amino acids, which are the building blocks that form various protein configurations to determine their roles. It is important to obtain all nine essential amino acids from diet as the body can only produce eleven of the twenty total amino acids. Good sources of complete protein include meat, dairy, eggs and their alternatives, as well as various plant-based foods like nuts, seeds, beans and grains when combined. Healthy adults should aim to consume between 50-175 grams of protein daily depending on calorie needs and lifestyle.

Leslie Eckert is a personal fitness trainer she is a fitness professional possessing the knowledge, skills and abilities for safe and effective exercise and
fitness program design.
The document discusses balancing energy needs by maintaining energy intake through food at a level equal to or below energy output from daily activities. If energy intake is greater than output, fat will be stored leading to weight gain and potential obesity. It also describes the stomach as a muscular bag that can hold 1 liter of food but stretch more, and the small intestine as around 6 meters long but with a smaller diameter than the large intestine.
With intermittent fasting, your body operates differently when “feasting” compared to when “fasting”.
During the “fasted state,” your body doesn’t have a recently consumed meal to use as energy, so it is more likely to pull from the fat stored in your body, rather than the glucose in your blood stream or glycogen in your muscles/liver. The same goes for working out in this state. Without a ready supply of glucose and glycogen to pull from (which has been depleted over the course of your fasted state, and hasn’t yet been replenished with a pre-workout meal), your body is forced to adapt and pull from the only source of energy available to it: the fat stored in your cells!
The document discusses a Year 7 biology lesson about balanced diets and energy from food. It explains that carbohydrates and fats provide stored energy for animals and that consuming more calories than needed causes weight gain as the body stores excess as fat. If less calories are consumed than needed, weight is lost as the body uses stored fat for energy. The document also discusses measuring the energy released from different foods by how much they heat water when burned.
In a study on Sleep and Obesity at Columbia University, patients who slept less than 7 hours, increased their caloric intake by an average of 300 calories
Obesity is a complex disease involving an excessive amount of body fat. Obesity isn't just a cosmetic concern. It is a medical problem that increases your risk of other diseases and health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and certain cancers.
15 simple ways to lose weight in 2 weekssamarbasheer
- The document presents 15 tips for losing weight in 2 weeks, including sleeping at night and being active during the day as science shows this burns more fat, drinking green tea which contains antioxidants that enhance fat burning, not keeping unhealthy snacks within reach to avoid cravings, and brushing teeth during the day which uses abdominal muscles.
- Eating frequently and not skipping meals sends signals to the body that it does not need to accumulate fat and avoid overeating, while stress and poor sleep slow metabolism and encourage eating unhealthy foods. Proper sleep, light exposure, and focusing on food quality rather than calories can help with weight loss.
Night shift workers face health risks due to disrupted circadian rhythms and sleep patterns. Irregular eating habits can develop from late-night snacking and caffeine use to stay awake. This can lead to weight gain, digestive issues, and lack of exercise. To maintain health, night shift workers should eat smaller, balanced meals before 1 am, choose healthy snacks, stay hydrated, exercise on breaks, and maintain sleep schedules on days off. Disturbances to circadian rhythms may increase risks of conditions like cancer, diabetes, and depression due to impacts on hormones like melatonin and serotonin.
This document provides tips for speeding up metabolism through dietary and lifestyle changes. It dispels myths such as the need to drink 2 liters of water per day or that skipping meals aids weight loss. The summary recommends eating 5 small meals per day containing protein, carbs, dairy and fruits/veggies to keep metabolism elevated. It also recommends drinking water and exercising 3 times per week for metabolism and weight benefits. Certain medical conditions can impact metabolism if not properly managed.
The document discusses nutrition, diet, dietary habits, calories, and maintaining a balanced diet. It provides definitions of key terms and explains the different food groups and nutrients the body needs, including carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, water and fiber. It discusses how to calculate caloric needs and balance based on factors like age, gender and physical activity levels. It also addresses topics like body composition, obesity, anorexia, and how diet and exercise relate to weight management and sports performance.

Our bodies require energy from food to function. When we eat, digestion processes remain active for hours to break down and absorb nutrients, which are then used for immediate energy or stored. During short-term fasting of 3 hours or more between meals, the body turns to stored fat instead of carbohydrates for energy. With long-term fasting of 2-3 days, the body goes into starvation mode, dramatically changing its metabolism to conserve energy by using fatty acids as its primary fuel and reducing physical activity.
Obesity is a growing problem. What is absurd is that the solution recommended by doctors, government and media is making it worse! If you want to understand why; read this.
We have complex systems to ensure we maintain a healthy weight - the right amount of fat.
If we are overweight, it means these systems are not working. If you don't address the underlying cause and only deal with the symptoms, you will fail to make a long term improvement.
The problem is that the standard approach, diet and exercise, makes the body react as though it was suffering a famine. It responds to this by trying to conserve energy and drive you to seek out more calorie-dense food.
It also resets the bodies "weight set point" to ensure that you have additional reserves if you face another famine in the future.
You will achieve weight loss in the short term, but you will almost certainly end up heavier a year later.
This has been known about since an experiment in 1945 designed to examine ways of helping those starved by the Axis powers in WW2, but the full implications were not really understood until the mid-'60s. It has taken longer for the mechanisms to be recognised, but they were by 2010, and we have continued to deepen our understanding.
It is time the medical profession and government got it right, and commercial organisations stopped making money from dangerous products and services.

In the most basic terms, a person’s metabolism is the rate at which calories are burned in order to maintain bodily functions and, more broadly, life. And so, to heavily butcher a famous Abraham Lincoln quote: “It is the eternal struggle between these two principles – metabolism and your waist line – throughout the world. They are the two principles that have stood face to face from the beginning of time; and will ever continue to struggle.”
The document discusses intermittent fasting and the benefits of spending more time in the fasted state. It explains that the body has fed and fasted states, and can only burn stored body fat when in the fasted state with low insulin levels. Spending less time in the fasted state due to frequent eating can lead to insulin resistance over time. Intermittent fasting is presented as a way to train the body to burn fat more efficiently by extending time in the fasted state and practicing fat burning. Overall benefits include improved insulin sensitivity, fat loss, and metabolic and cellular changes that support fat burning.
THE BENEFITS OF FASTING IN MEDICAL PERSPECTIVE Izzati Zainal
Fasting in Islam involves abstaining from food, drink, smoking and sexual activity from sunrise to sunset. This period of fasting aims to develop righteousness, patience, self-control and gratitude. Medically, fasting provides benefits to the digestive system by giving it rest and allowing time for regeneration. It can also help regulate blood sugar levels within normal ranges. While some studies have shown slight weight loss, others have found no change or even weight gain, depending on lifestyle and diet during the fasting period. The medical perspective is that fasting provides physiological benefits but is not intended as a means for weight loss.
The document provides tips for increasing energy levels through maintaining physical health, diet, reducing stress, sleep, exercise, spiritual connection, and managing emotions. It emphasizes the importance of evaluating physical condition, restoring metabolism through diet and lifestyle, incorporating energy foods like carbohydrates and fats, reducing stress through time management and relaxation, improving sleep quality, exercising regularly, nurturing spiritual well-being, and changing negative emotions. The overall message is that holistic lifestyle changes across multiple dimensions can help a person feel more energized.

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.

1. • Did you know that after the Summer Solstice
your body will store more carbs as fat to get
ready for the winter?
• Did your trainer or nutritionist warning you of
this?
• Did you know the precise ways to avoid this
natural phenomenon?
Find out how to lose weight or at least maintain
your weight through the rest of the summer!
2. Get Synchronized with the Seasons!
Since summer is finally here we tend to stay up
late, however we should look to this
opportunity to get synchronized with the sun.
Studies have shown that if you continue to lose
sleep out of sync with the sunrise and sunset
you will increase your appetite, increase your
insulin resistance, and increase your weight
gain due to insulin resistance!
World Leaders in health attribute
desynchronization with obesity, diabetes,
cancers, cardiovascular disease, and more!
3. 2 Simple Steps to get Synchronized:
1. SLEEP
– Be asleep 2-2.5 hours after sunset (be outside
when the sun goes down to trigger melatonin)
– Wake up when the sun rises to get in sync
2. WATCH YOUR CARBS
– This time of year our bodies crave all the fruits,
vegetables, and ice cream because your body
wants you fatten up for the winter, but
moderation is key!
4. Long Days, Short Nights = Fat Gain!
• “Clinical studies have found that even short
periods of sleep restriction can negatively affect
energy metabolism. Partial sleep loss leads to
increased glucose levels, decreased insulin
sensitivity, and reduced glucose tolerance. Short
periods of reduced sleep are also associated
with decreased leptin and augmented ghrelin
levels, leading to increased appetite and food
consumption that can potentially cause excess
weight gain.” Journal of Applied Physiology
2014.
5. Sleep – Why Most People Need
Synchronization!
• Since the invention of fire light has altered our
hormones and physiology.
– This is why we are able to reproduce year around
• Now with electricity and temperature control, we
live in perpetual summer with 14+ hours of light
at a nice 68°F instead of the natural fluctuations
of the seasons
– Researchers are now using non-shivering cold-induced
thermogenesis (i.e. brief bouts of exposure to cold
temperatures) for weight lose in the obese.
7. The Facts…
If you look at the previous chart we are getting
14 hours+ of daylight right now in NJ, so with
my recipe for Synchronization you would get
about 7.5 to 8 hours of sleep. Each week and
month you sleep would increase until Winter
Solstice when your metabolism changes again.
The metabolic shifts in the body change how
you process food, store fat, and carbs.
8. The Facts…
Seasonal diet changes, light changes, and
temperature changes change our DNA’s
expression of enzymes like Telemerase.
Telemerase tells your cells how many times to
replicate. This is important for living a long life
with all your cells working optimally and not
becoming malignant. (Journal of Aging
Research Volume 2011)
9. The Facts…
• The more you have your lights on in your
house and stay up late watching TV or on the
computer, the more you are destroying your
Melatonin. Melatonin is a powerful
antioxidant for anti-aging and prevention of
cancer. Melatonin is responsible for fertility
and normal sex hormone production.
• Turn off the Lights and Get in Sync!
