Watching TV Food Ads Linked to Increased Snacking
Americans young and old who watch food commercials on TV have a greater tendency to snack and suffer weight gain, a recent study has discovered. The study, which was published in the journal Health Psychology, was done by scientists at Yale University to investigate the effects of TV food ads on viewers. In one experiment, the scientists showed two groups of children the same half-hour cartoon. ( Read more about Watching TV Food Ads Linked to Increased Snacking)

Expert Commentary: Michelle May, M.D. 1/29/2010
We live in an abundant food environment. There are far more calories available for each person than are needed for our typical day-to-day activities - or even a moderately active lifestyle. Advertising encourages us to consume those excess calories - and it works, as these studies show. ( Read more about Expert Commentary: Michelle May, M.D. 1/29/2010)

Expert Commentary: Andrea Pennington, M.D. 12/10/2009
In the August 24 edition of the journal Circulation, the American Heart Association published new advice to all Americans - cut the sugar intake. Excess sugar in our diets has been linked to high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, obesity and diabetes. Experts in the field of age management medicine add that high amounts of sugar accelerate the aging process as well. So where do you start?

Organic Found to Have No Nutritional Edge Over Standard Food
From a nutritional standpoint, organically produced foods are no better than conventionally produced ones, according to research appearing in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Multivitamins Found Useless Against Top Killers
In a large, well-regarded study on women, daily multivitamin use was found to provide no protection at all against breast cancer, colon cancer, heart attack, stroke, blood clots or premature death.
Previous research has shown that eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables leads to lower rates of cancer, heart disease and other deadly disorders. But it’s been a question mark whether taking vitamin supplements does the same. ( Read more about Multivitamins Found Useless Against Top Killers)

Healthy Breakfast a Predictor of Lower Weight
People who ate a healthy breakfast were found generally to weigh less than their counterparts who either ate a high-calorie, fatty meal or skipped it altogether. So concluded a recent study, which was reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. It examined responses from more than 12,000 American adults who took part in three federal health surveys between 1999 and 2004. The research found that men who ate a healthy breakfast weighed less on average, and that women also weighed less if they ate any sort of breakfast at all, healthy or not.

Caloric Restriction May Come in a Capsule
A common compound found in red grapes and red wine has been found to mimic the healthy-aging effect in mice of caloric restriction, that is, an ultra-low-calorie diet. Receiving regular doses of resveratrol guaranteed dramatically healthier aging for the mice, leaving them with strong hearts, clear eyes, flexible muscles and strong bones well into old age, even if they started taking the chemical in middle age. Caloric restriction, though effective in producing a relatively disease-free aging process, is actually impractical and perhaps dangerous for humans. But taking a resveratrol pill is not. In fact, the compound has been found to have no noticeable side effects. ( Read more about Caloric Restriction May Come in a Capsule)

Eat Differently as You Age
As people get older, their metabolism begins to change. And this means their intake of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals must change, too, or their health might suffer. "All the nutritional things that we need to be concerned about as younger adults are even more important as we get older," says Alice Lichtenstein, professor of nutrition at Tufts University in Medford, Mass.
