Omnivista Health Learning Exposes Prostate Cancer Study

Omnivista Health Learning Exposes Government Study Causing Prostate Cancer In Participants Omnivista Health Learning  provided an article on vitamin E surrounded around facts that went against a large prostate cancer risk government study. The government study did not make it clear about the vitamin E that was used. It was a synthetic version that actually caused men to receive prostate cancer instead of preventing the disease.  A large study was conducted, 35,000 men over 9 years, and it was concluded Vitamin E increased the risk for prostate cancer - to combat earlier research that concluded vitamin E might reduce the risk, which left the researchers baffled as to why vitamin E supplements increased the risk ( National Institutes of Health) . Maybe they were baffled with the specifics as to why the risk increased, but I believe they knew the natural version of vitamin E would provide different results.  The Omnivista Health Learning article provided additional information.

Studies on Visceral Fat Loss

Studies on Visceral Fat loss Many studies on visceral fat loss exist. Exercise and diet play a significant role in the deadly metabolic disease. Living a sedentary lifestyle makes more of a difference in the percentage of fat surrounding your vital organs than your diet. The root cause of type 2 diabetes was discovered after conducting a visceral fat health study.  Effects Your Sexual Health Peer reviewed studies on visceral fat revealed visceral fat % has a direct correlation with erectile dysfunction, and premature ejaculation in men ( Dursun, Cakir et al.) .  The Easiest Way To Lose Visceral Fat Losing weight is the easiest way to lose visceral fat and people lose a higher percentage of body fat after losing a smaller percentage of body weight, but even when you exercise and do not lose weight you still will lose body fat (visceral fat) ( Martin) .  Losing fat is more important than losing weight because losing weight involves losing muscle mass and water, which is why exercising re

Changes in Organic Farming

Big Changes in Organic Farming Changes in organic farming inside the United States have been huge over the years. Increased organic food sales and increased demand for organic food. Supply from native organic farms were unable to meet the demands even though organic croplands have shown a significant increase over recent years. The 2008 farm act really handcuffed the organic farm industry for the next decade, by funding the bioengineering and non-organic farm industries in the hundreds of millions while reducing the organic farm industry funding. How Did Organic Farming Begin The concept of organic farming came from India when Sir Albert Howard learned their farming methods and championed for those concepts in the early 1900's, along with F.H. King and Rudolf Steinerto, to be used in the west for an improved farming system (Adamchak). Changes in Organic Farming Over the Years Organic food sales increased an estimated 30 billion dollars from 2010 - 2020, with certified organic cropl

How Important is CoQ10

How Important is CoQ10  How important is CoQ10? It is used by cells for growth and maintenance, naturally made inside the body with levels decreasing as you age, however, food sources such as fish and nuts are not capable of significantly increasing levels in the body (Mayo Clinic Staff).  Coenzyme Q10 is primarily used to generate energy in cells - helping to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP) (involved in energy transfer within cells) - and serving a critical role as an antioxidant protecting cells from oxidative damage, therefore low levels of CoQ10 are associated with chronic diseases such as heart disease, brain disorders, diabetes, and cancer (Semeco).  Important for The Heart How important is CoQ10 for the heart?  Significantly lower coenzyme Q10 levels were associated with 58 deaths out of 242 patients who were studied long term with acute cardiovascular disease (Shimizu et al.).

Is Coffee Bad for Kidneys? Is coffee bad for kidneys? Research has shown it to be both bad for your kidneys and great for your health. Eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly have a strong effect on the relationship between coffee consumption and your kidneys.  Coffee is a risk for kidneys because significant scientific studies linked calcium oxalate stones (the most common form of kidney stones) with regular coffee because it contains oxalate and other scientific studies revealed coffee to be a risk factor for polycystic kidney disease (PKD) progression (Chauhan).   PKD is inherited due to abnormal genes in the family line and complications lead to high blood pressure, cysts growing larger, chronic pain, aneurysms in the brain which can lead to ruptures, developing mitral valve prolapse, diverticular disease, and the worst progression of the disease leads to kidney failure with transplants or dialysis needed for survival (Mayo Clinic).

Raw Food Diet Disadvantages

Image
The Disadvantages of The Raw Food Diet Raw food diets have disadvantages along with advantages. Whether one outweighs the other is debatable. It is very hard to debate facts and that is my intent with this post focused mostly on the negative effects of the diet.  A raw food diet has nutritional deficiencies like lack of B-12, low HDL cholesterol numbers, not enough nutrients like calcium or vitamin D to support good bone health, and low body weight due to lack of calories inside the diet ( Livestrong) . Iron and iodine are two nutrients lacking with this plan as well (Cleveland Clinic).  The diet weakens muscles due to lack of protein, almost 100% of the people experienced tooth erosion in one study, and another study found it to increase infertility in women with about 70% experiencing disruption with their menstrual cycle and a third developing amenorrhea (Petre).  The diet is restrictive, time consuming and puts people at a higher risk for food poisoning because of the raw uncooked

Diet Aides for Children Diet aides for children exist because the many adult diets in existence are unsafe for children to strictly follow. One of the main diets that kids follow nowadays, through the leadership of their parents, leads them towards obesity which is an increasing issue worldwide. Pediatricians and parents are critical for guiding children towards their proper weight and nutritional needs. Diets are unsafe for children unless a pediatrician ok's it, and Doctors are able to recommend what the proper weight for your child should be (Liao). Ages 2-18 are crucial ages for children because dietary patterns begin to form which last into adulthood including poor nutrition habits leading to obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease so parents are crucial in developing good nutritional habits at an early age (USDA).
