23.01.2022 #Eating out often is more common today than ever. So here's some tips to try when you're eating out, to help keep your #meal #healthy and #balanced 1. Consider ordering an entrée size main meal and also order another dish of only #vegetables or #salad to achieve the 'half your plate as vegetables' meal balance. 2. Eat the salad or vegetables part of your meal first to help you feel satisfied sooner. ... 3. Ask for #dressings and #sauces on the side so you can decide how much to put on - and use small amounts of it. 4. Avoid large serves of #pasta and #rice dishes that contain few vegetables and also might contain high fat sauces. 5. Choose #steamed , pan fried, braised, #poached , #baked , #roasted or #grilled options and avoid fried, battered and crumbed dishes. 6. Consider your drinks! Choose #water , unsweetened #tea , and other drinks without added sugars with your meal. When drinking #alcohol , alternate drinks with water.

20.01.2022 Did you know in general, women are more likely than men to have a stroke, die from stroke and have poorer health and physical function after a stroke? The average age of first stroke in women is 75 years. Researchers in a recent study analysed health information on nearly 60,000 women a found "changing to a healthy lifestyle, even in your 50s, still has the potential to prevent strokes. During the 26-year follow-up, researchers found:... 4.7% of women with no lifestyle interventions had a stroke of any type; Engaging in the three non-dietary interventions smoking cessation, daily exercise and weight loss was estimated to reduce the risk of total stroke by 25%. Sustained dietary modifications were estimated to reduce the risk of total stroke by 23%. So middle age may not be too late for women to substantially reduce their stroke risk by not smoking, exercising, maintaining a healthy weight and making healthy food choices! While this was an observational study that included mostly white, middle-aged women, Danaei said, there are other studies to support that the proportional changes in stroke risk from lifestyle and dietary modifications may be generalizable to men. We also estimate that exercising 30 minutes or more daily may reduce the risk of stroke by 20%. https://www.upi.com//Lifestyle-changes-can-/5601586444728/

18.01.2022 It’s been a sweet week for water at Sunshine Sugar. This week our Condong Sugar Mill in Northern NSW produced the first batch of Australian botanical drinking... water made from sugar cane. The cane water is now heading in a tanker to a bottling plant in Victoria where it will be sampled, bottled and exported to the lucrative $18.5 Billion water market in the USA. This exciting news comes just months after Sunshine Sugar entered into a partnership with AquaBotanical to harvest the naturally stored water in sugar cane during sugar production. Our CEO Chris Connors said, We are now able to use every available drop of water contained in the stalk of the sugar cane plant to create a new sustainable source of botanical drinking water. In short, we grow water. Further installation of plant and equipment will be undertaken at the Condong Sugar Mill over the coming months. Sunshine Sugar and AquaBotanical plan to be fully operational and commence full-scale water from sugarcane production in the Tweed Valley at the start of the 2020 crushing season in June. #sunshinesugar #innovation See more

07.01.2022 Soul Fit Woonona's member stories from their Sweat & Shred program are so motivating! Hearing a participant say it was "the most effective diet'" and she didn't consider it a diet but a way of life (that has changed her food and exercise attitude), while getting some amazing health results, is what it's about. Learning about what you put into body, being able to develop habits during the program that become a way of life AND learning to love your body is an IDEAL way to come out of a program, rather than being deprived and having a mindset that can't wait for it to end. Congratulations Chels, great achievements!

03.01.2022 A large population-based study published in February 2019 found adults who consume less healthy foods (vegetables, fruits and water) and more unhealthy foods (soda, French fries, fast food, sweetened fruit drinks, cake/cookies/pie and ice cream/frozen desserts), are more likely to report symptoms of either moderate or serious psychological distress than their peers who consume a healthier diet. The lead author of the study said the results are similar to other studies that ha...ve found a link between mental illness and unhealthy diet choices. Increased sugar consumption has been found to be associated with bipolar disorder, for example, and consumption of foods that have been fried or contain high amounts of added sugar and processed grains have been linked with depression. The study reported that "given the basic influence of nutrition on both physical and mental health, it should be given more attention in assessment and treatment for those with mental illness. Shaping policy and practices, which include access to dietary consults and nutrition education as inclusionary to mental illness treatment and prevention, may yield greater improvement of both mental and physical health." The study stated that the findings provide "additional evidence that public policy and clinical practice should more explicitly aim to improve diet quality among those struggling with mental health." It also stated that "dietary interventions for people with mental illness should especially target young adults, those with less than 12 years of education, and obese individuals."

01.01.2022 In a study examining risk factors for type 2 diabetes, people with obesity were nearly six times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than people of normal weight, regardless of their genes or whether they had favorable lifestyle behaviors. Being overweight was associated with a 49% risk increase. Obesity was defined as a BMI of 30 or higher; overweight as a BMI of 25 or higher. The authors conclude: "The results suggest that type 2 diabetes prevention by weight management and healthy lifestyle is critical across all genetic risk groups. Furthermore, we found that the effect of obesity on type 2 diabetes risk is dominant over other risk factors, highlighting the importance of weight management in type 2 diabetes prevention." https://www.medpagetoday.com/endocrinology/diabetes/85979
