KICKSTART YOUR HEALTH WITH DR. NEAL BARNARD
March 2011

– Can Certain Foods Help Control Your Appetite? –

For years Dr. Neal Barnard has been at the forefront of cutting-edge research on what it really takes to lose weight and restore the body to optimal health. Now, in this new PBS special, KICKSTART YOUR HEALTH, Dr. Barnard unveils the secrets to reprogramming your body quickly and getting your body on track to better health fast. KICKSTART YOUR HEALTH WITH DR. NEAL BARNARD is part of special programming premiering on PBS stations beginning March 5, 2011 and airing throughout March (check local listings).

Maybe you’d like to lose weight, lower your cholesterol or improve your energy. Or perhaps you’d like to go vegan for the animals and the environment. Now is your chance to do it in a way that is engaging and fun. Whether you’re drawn to chocolate, cookies, potato chips, cheese burgers and fries, Dr. Neal Barnard’s advice and plant-based diet will provide delicious and healthy alternatives that do not include meat, dairy, seafood and other animal based products. In this program, Dr. Barnard will teach viewers:

•Appetite Control: Many people find themselves drawn to foods, even when they are not hungry. The Kickstart plan shows why appetites get out of control and how to choose foods that calm the appetite naturally.
•Burn Enhancement: For people who feel they are not burning calories as fast as they should be —as if everything they even think about eating goes straight to ‘the hips’— it turns out that you can actually increase your calorie-burning speed through food. By adjusting your eating patterns, you can burn calories faster for about three hours after each meal, so more of what you eat simply burns off, rather than going to body fat.
•Health Protection: It is critical that the foods you choose are not just slimming, but also bring lifelong health. By favoring the very best choices, foods can trim your waistline, improve our health, boost your energy, and tackle cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes and maybe even Alzheimer’s disease.
Does it really work? Can foods really help control the appetite? Dr. Barnard reveals studies that will demonstrate how focusing on the food you eat and not the calorie count can help dramatically reduce weight. According to Dr. Barnard, “the trick to eating less is to focus not on how much you eat but on what you eat. Without even knowing it people tend to reduce their calories and the weight loss is essentially automatic.” Best of all, these appetite-taming, energy-boosting foods are good for overall health. Unlike diet pills or stimulants, the foods that boost metabolism and calm the appetite can also protect the heart, lower cholesterol, improve blood pressure, relieve joint pain, migraines and even reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

McDonald’s Figured Out How to Ruin Oatmeal!

Is anyone surprised?

The oatmeal and McDonald’s story broke late last year, when Mickey D’s, in its ongoing effort to tell us that it’s offering “a selection of balanced choices” (and to keep in step with arch-rival Starbucks) began to sell the cereal. Yet in typical McDonald’s fashion, the company is doing everything it can to turn oatmeal into yet another bad choice. (Not only that, they’ve made it more expensive than a double-cheeseburger: $2.38 per serving in New York.) “Cream” (which contains seven ingredients, two of them actual dairy) is automatically added; brown sugar is ostensibly optional, but it’s also added routinely unless a customer specifically requests otherwise. There are also diced apples, dried cranberries and raisins, the least processed of the ingredients (even the oatmeal contains seven ingredients, including “natural flavor”).

A real recipe for healthy steel cut oats is so simple and delicious and can be made in large batches and kept in the refridgerator for quick and easy eating!

UCLA Scientists Identify a Possible Cure for Baldness

Scientists may have accidentally discovered a cure for baldness while researching the effects of stress on the digestive system.

The findings look promising.

“Our findings show that a short-duration treatment with this compound causes an astounding long-term hair regrowth in chronically stressed mutant mice,” Million Mulugeta, an adjunct professor of medicine in the division of digestive diseases at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and a corresponding author of the research, said in a statement. “This could open new venues to treat hair loss in humans … particularly hair loss related to chronic stress and aging.”
