Florida Scientists seek cause of obesity, by allowing the laboratory rat gnawing on a sweet cake, pork and sausage. The result, they found that the rats experienced addiction, like the response observed in the brains of mice.

To maintain a high intake of fat, the mice received more foods rich in fat, until they are obese during the research process.

One researcher, Paul Kenny, the Scripps Research Institute, said he suspected that the chemical changes that occur in the rats to eat unhealthy foods can also occur in humans.

"There are systems in the brain that are activated or too active, and controls the body on a subconscious level. Obesity is a form of compulsive eating habits," he wrote in the journal Nature Neuroscience.

And just like heroin addicts, food addicts rats is not blocked by the threat of the disease. Like when the researchers stimulated rats foot shock, do not feel pain, and only stopped from undermining the activities of food. "His focus is solely on food," said Kenny.

Findings like Scripps scientists try to describe what Dr. Gene-Jack Wang of Brookhaven Lab on Long Island National. "We're making our food very similar to cocaine now," he said in health.com. "We are very" clean "food. Our ancestors ate whole grains, but we eat white bread. American corn flour, corn syrup ate."

Spring roll skin networks is very thin and fit. Because of that, he did, even people who are experts in order not to disrupt the schedules of the skin.

Not only spring rolls of skin. To this restaurant coffee has a taste similar to the country of origin of coffee, coffee beans imported from Vietnam. Other materials such as noodles, several sauces, and fish sauce are also imported from there. The meat is imported from New Zealand.

Red Meat and Cancer Risk

Red meat and cancer, as compared friends. Various literature states dangers of eating too much flushed meat. One of them is causing cancer. But how could the flushed meat to cause cancer?

Health recommendations that say meat causes cancer, a conclusion derivative from individual studies of European populations in the 1990s. The study showed that people who often take more meat with cancer compared with vegetarians.

Since then, numerous studies continue to learn more about the impact of meat for health. There are individual hypotheses about this, including reducing the meat fiber, antioxidants and other essential nutrients that hit proved effective to counteract the cancer cells.

Also contains a lot of flushed meat and fat are often additional hormones in livestock products, this will increase the cancer-causing hormones, such as breast cancer or prostate cancer. Meat is also high in protein, and protein will break down ammonia, which is carcinogenic in humans.

Meat grilled in high temperatures can also lead to cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogenic) as hetercycil amines (HCA) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Studies in mice showed these compounds are carcinogenic.

Types of meat
Various literature mentions flushed meat increases cancer risk. Meat to watch include beef, sheep, goats, pigs, and processed meats.

In addition to type of meat, is also noteworthy cooking process. Meat is processed in a very high temperature, either fried or baked to produce large amounts of HCA. Cooking in a long time, like cooking a steak, can also cause carcinogenic compounds.

To reduce the risk of cancer, experts recommend replacing activity of flushed meat with albescent meat. Another alternative is to choose organic meat or meat derivative from animals without giving center dikembangbiakan antibiotics or hormones.

Full-Fat Cheese
Dairy product that is a great source of casein protein - one of the best muscle building nutrients you can eat. What's more, Danish researchers found that even when people ate 10 ounces of full-fat cheese daily for 3 weeks, their LDL ( "bad") cholesterol did not budge.

Iced Coffee
Coffee reduces your appetite, increase your metabolism, and gives you a shot of antioxidants. A study published in the journal Physiology & Behavior found that the average metabolic rate of people who drink caffeinated coffee was 16 percent higher than those who drink decaf. Caffeine stimulates your central nervous system by increasing your heart rate and breathing. Honestly, can be a more perfect drink? Furthermore, frequent mini servings of caffeine (coffee 8 ounces or less) keep awake, alert and focused for longer than an elephant is one, according to sleep experts. When quickly drink a large coffee, the caffeine in your bloodstream peaks much earlier than spread it over time. Start your day with coffee 8 ounces (the "short" size is available by request at Starbucks). Or, ask a large half caf. Then keep the caffeine lightly stream of lunchtime cappuccino (it's got only 75 mg, with a quarter of what you want to get a coffee 16 ounces).

(The apple is around 128 calories.) What's more, they reported feeling Fuller afterward, too. Sure, fruit is loaded into the belly-filling fiber, but there is another reason Apple help you think the whole: it requires more chewing, which can make you think you eat more than you really are, says study author Julie Obbagy, Tel. D.



Eggs
Skip the cold cereal: Eating eggs and bacon in the morning can help you control your hunger later in the day. Indiana University scientists found that dieters who immediately their biggest dose of daily protein for breakfast felt full longer than ate more of the beneficial lunch or dinner. The outcome: "They are more likely to overeat the rest of the day," says study author Heather Leidy, Ph.D. To dispel hunger, shoot for at least 20-30 grams of protein at breakfast.

The bean eaters in the survey also tended to have lower systolic blood-pressure measurements, research says Victor Fulgoni III, Ph.D. Beans are rich in belly-filling fiber as well as potassium, which helps fight hypertension. Aim for half a cup of cooked beans 3 or 4 days a week.

Take fish-oil capsules daily - one with 500 milligrams of end-3s EPA and DHA. It offers the same benefits such as salmon.



Milk
Instead of juice, reach for the moo juice in the morning. Drinking milk at breakfast can help you eat less at lunch, Australian scientists say. In their study, overweight people who downed about 2 1 / 2 cup of skim milk in the morning immediately 8.5 percent fewer calories to an all-you-can-eat lunch spread to people who drank the same amount of juice. Both beverages had equal number of calories, but the milk contained 25 grams of protein while the juice is almost no protein and 63 grams of sugar.
