Overweight people eat fewer meals than normal weight people.
It might seem counter-intuitive, however, it seems that all this snacking leads to consuming less calories overall throughout the day.
Generally, though, “weight loss maintainers” consumed the fewest calories, at about 1,800 a day, compared with the normal weight and overweight subjects, who took in 1,900 and more than 2,000 calories a day, respectively.
Weight loss maintainers also were the most physically active of the three groups, Bachman said, burning off about 3,000 calories a week through exercise and other activities, compared to 2,000 calories a week among the normal weight subjects and 800 calories a week in the overweight group.
The take away? You can be satisfied eating less if you spread the food out over the course of your day.
A lighter belly also leaves you more inclined to be active in between meals.
Clinic of Last Resort diagnosis the tough diseases.
When resources are scarce and doctors have no other solutions, the rare and elusive cases end up at the Undiagnosed Diseases Program begun in 2008 by the National Institutes of Health.
By early this year, the medical detectives had fielded 4,700 inquiries, reviewed 1,700 medical records, rejected 100 cases and accepted 400, with the rest under review, according to a summary by Dr. William A. Gahl, who heads the program, based in Bethesda, Md.
“The discovery of a new disease. That’s something that will stand forever in the scientific realm,” Gahl told TODAY.com.Louise Benge walks on a treadmill at NIH, part of the exams that helped diagnose the disease that allows calcium to build up in the blood vessels of her hands and lower limbs.
The program also dramatically expanded knowledge and descriptions of several other disorders in patients who came to what’s now regarded as the clinic of last resort.
Stress takes a physical toll on your body causing physiological symptoms of illness.
We live in a society where there are multiple demands on us almost all the time. We need to put greater emphasis on protective factors like sitting down with the family or exercising or putting away all the electronic devices.
I am also a big believer in mindfulness. I think we need to be able to turn things down and off, and build in protections so that we don’t get overwhelmed – even something as simple as a hobby.
Baby boomers avoid making living wills because they feel too young and healthy.
Who can even think of writing a will between yoga class and triathlon training?
Kathy Brandt says wills and health care proxies are a good idea for everyone whether they are healthy and young or older and not so healthy.
Brandt, a senior vice president at the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization, said the two documents can spare families a painful fight and ensure that patients receive — or don’t receive — the medical treatment they wish should they end up in a situation where they can’t speak for themselves
Saving loved ones from making the tough decisions as we age could be the kindest gift of all at the end of our lives.
