And when they use the words “morbid obesity” it’s twice as nasty. Guess, as a nurse, I’ve read too many doctor’s history forms describing physical exams on patients. I confess the phrase “morbidly obese” sends chills up my spine. Just those two words denigrate the individual and somehow, relegate them to second class citizen. This whole subject of weight and over-weight is such a frustrating one. It has social as well as health implications. I think for many of us with various forms of arthritis, particularly if we have been on varying doses of prednisone, we know what it is to have our “fat” move around. “Traveling deposits of fat.”  Now, there’s a thought. If only it would keep... Life with Chronic Pain blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=2321755 Tue, 31 Mar 2009 21:26:12 +0100 2321755 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=2284429&cid=t_218569_87_f&fid=34872&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.blisstree.com%2Fhealthbolt%2Fhealthbolt-book-review-my-diva-diet%2F There’s no getting around it - diet really is a four letter word. It’s a word that frequently conjours up feelings of frustration, impatience, disappointment, sadness, and even failure. Which is probably why Christine Lakatos describes her book My Diva Diet as ‘A Woman’s Last Diet Book’. It’s a turn of phrase that’s guaranteed to attract those who are looking for an answer to all their dieting woes. And it’s very likely it might just do just that. A 413 page workbook, resource, and motivational guide, My Diva Diet got my attention from the get go with it’s innovative characters. There’s Ms Diva who highlights all useful tips and her sidekick Paws, who summarizes the how-to information. Superheroes and Diet Villains also make an appearance to emphasize who the true d...

Something that could help you not only lose the pounds but improve your general health and wellbeing. Then head for the nearest lemon tree. That’s what Theresa Cheung, author of The Lemon Juice Diet, recommends. Having done detailed and extensive research, she believes that lemons and lemon juice is is all you need to kickstart a new healthier and slimmer you. Lemons have natural detoxifying powers which stimulates the digestive system in a healthy and effective way. And a healthy digestive system is very important if you have any hope at all of losing weight. So I thought I’d jump on in and give it a go. The first step turned out to be the hardest. Having always started my day with a cup of coffee, suddenly having to change to a glass of lemon jui...

Written by Jenna Bergen, a freelance writer and yoga addict, it reads more like a click lit novel than a diet. But diet book it is and a very useful one at that for anyone who is suddenly discovering that the guy that you’re falling is causing you to let your diet and healthy eating habits fall by the wayside. It’s pretty much a given that once in a relationship, many women will pick up their partner’s unhealthy eating habits, resulting in weight gain. It sure doesn’t seem fair, but it’s true. And the main reason behind this is simply that men eat different from women and often have little understanding on basic nutritional needs. They eat when they are hungry and as we women k...

Good advice including: get plenty of soluble and insoluble fiber from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, eat reasonable portions, and exercise. The problem is that this excellent, evidence-based message is buried in hyperbolic language and some superfluous advice. Fiber 35 emphasizes the mechanisms by which fiber and fiber-containing foods can help improve disease markers (cholesterol, blood sugar, and immunity), while helping to control weight and appetite. A concept enjoying heavy rotation and loose interpretations nowadays is the subject of toxins. Fiber 35 claims that toxins are relieved by eating fiber -- 35 g...
