2008-06-17 Radio Talk Show Host Promises to Take Diet Pills, So Listeners Wont

Unfortunately, none of those diet pills provided an answer for Wright and even made things worse. Not only did they make her feel jittery or anxious or nervous or ill (or all of the above), they messed with her mind so much that she didnt know what she was doing or why half of the time. "I remember taking some diet pills I had bought many years ago in desperation thinking each time I put them in my mouth that these were probably the most unsafe pills I had ever taken and could probably kill me. " Wright recalled. Of course, that was her rational conscious talking, but her subconscious was telling her she was fat and ugly and need to do whatever it took to lose weight. Wright continued "When my husband found them, he told me under no circumstances would I continue taking those things; that it was suicidal,

2008-06-28 Fighting Obesity - This is How it is Done Best Syndication

With the abundance of diet pills in the market, you can bet that not all of these actually work, much less provide miracles. In this case you need of course, a doctor. You need to consult one and show a sample of your diet pill before you take it so he can have it examined. For all you know, it may have substances that will harm you. This is very important because obesity may trigger such deadly diseases and conditions like diabetes, high cholesterol level and heart attack. A doctor who knows your medical background will be a bigger help. You need to be extra cautious as there are diet pills in the market that are not even regulated by the Food and Drug Administration(FDA).

2008-06-24 Health 24 - Weight loss - A-Z of pills/shakes

Im relieved that diet pills and drops have been made less accessible to the public, as theyre extremely addictive and can cause many negative side effects. Just the other day, one of my readers confessed that shes been taking one of these diet products for 16 years. This is a frightening scenario and one that clearly illustrates how addictive ephedrine-containing diet pills can be.

Although the amendment to the schedules of the Medicines and Related Substances Act, 101 of 1965, published on , aims to prevent the direct sale of cold and flu medications that contain any form of epinephrine, so that these products cant be turned into "tik" (a highly addictive drug thats widely abused in South Africa), this piece of legislation has also led to the banning of over-the-counter sales of diet pills and potions that contain these substances.

2008-06-03 Diet Not Working The Yo-yo Diet Best Syndication

People who start these diets will quickly end them when they realize they arent losing weight and they will return to their normal eating habits. Because the body still thinks it is in starvation mode, it will hoard all the fat cells of which there is twice the amount being eaten now, and the dieter will actually gain more weight back than they lost. This will prompt another diet and the process begins again. This is called a yo-yo diet.

2008-06-21 S. F. Science Examiner - The Omniscients Dilemma

Since there will be a good deal of variance within each group in terms of physiological reaction, what else they eat or consume during the study, how rigorously they obey the pill/placebo schedule, etc, the answer will be a quite highly statistical one about the relative impact or lack thereof of that specific component of that specific diet on that specific risk-factor for that specific disease for a non-existent average person

Rather, a scientist would perform an experiment more like the following: Pick a disease of interest (say heart disease). Take a specific diet (e. g. , the Mediterranean diet), and pick one kind of food from that diet (perhaps even just one nutrient from one kind of food). Since you cant wait for 40 years, you identify a specific "risk factor" for the disease of interest (say level of LDL cholesterol in the blood. ) Divide your sample population randomly into two groups, and apply the "gold-standard" clinical trial method shown above.

2008-06-08 Can Blue Zones Help Turn Back the Biological Clock : NPR

People look at, for example, the loss of accommodation in the lens of the eye. Most people become farsighted, usually in their early 40s. It doesnt happen to everyone, so you cant say its a universal sign of aging. Graying of hair, loss of collagen in the skin, all of these are changes that have been described with regard to aging. Theres a change in body composition as people get older. It can obviously be influenced by exercise and diet, but in general, we lose muscle mass and gain body fat. The immune system changes with age and becomes less competent, but again, not in any universal way that we can say is a characteristic of aging.

2008-06-20 PPH and more After Five Years on Fen-Phen

One of the things I saw on the internet about Fen-Phen is that it can affect your teeth. My gums and my teeth are a mess. My parents always made sure my teeth were well taken care of, when I was a child, and I continued to take good care of them as an adult. But today I have no upper teeth left, and Im sure this is connected with the Fen-Phen. I never did any recreational drugs; I took nothing except what my doctor prescribed for me. Fen-Phen was the only diet pill Ive ever taken. "

2008-07-01 STLtoday - Select wisely so you dont crunch diet

If your diet is less than healthy, look for a bar that has at least 35 percent of the RDA requirement for vitamins and minerals. For those who eat a reasonably healthy and well-balanced diet or supplement with vitamins and minerals, be aware that you may already be meeting your nutritional needs. For example, a fortified bar might provide 35 percent of your daily needs for iron or other minerals or vitamins. Consuming a fortified cereal that contains 50 percent of your daily needs, plus a multivitamin/mineral pill that contains 100 percent, along with other foods consumed during the day, could easily add up to too much, which could interfere with absorption of certain vitamins and minerals, or cause other problems. In this case, cutting back on portion sizes might be one way to ensure you are not ingesting too much.

2008-06-25 Health and Fitness Health Women more savvy about slimming than the pill

Dr Catherine Hood, sexual health expert, comments, "While its positive that young women are so knowledgeable about their diet, its worrying that theyre not so knowledgeable about their daily contraception. While different nutrients have different health benefits, different hormone levels in different Pills can have varying effects on your body too. Just because a certain Pill works for your best friend, it doesnt mean that it will suit you.
