18.01.2022 CHEMICALS IN RED WINE BLOCKS FAT CELLS FORMATION Resveratrol is a chemical found in red wine, grapes and peanuts that help fight cancer, heart disease and nervous diseases. Resveratrol is broken down to piceatannal in the body. A Purdue University study of isolated fat cells showed that piceatannol prevented fat cells development. Fat cell development involves many stages that begin with the development of preadipocytes (immature fat cells) ... There are no studies to show that and increase in wine consumption triggers fat loss through increased resveratrol or piceatannol consumption.

13.01.2022 Another reason to stay in bed Sleeping in won’t make you fat. In fact, a new study shows that more hours in the sack could help you slim down by reducing how much control your genes have on your weight. The study, published in the journal Sleep, looked at the sleep patterns and body mass index (BMI) of over 1,000 twins. On average, the people in the study slept 7.2 hours a night, which falls within the National Sleep Foundation’s recommended seven to nine hours. People who sl...ept less than seven hours a night, however, had a higher BMI than those who slept more than nine hours. Genetics also had a greater influence on the BMI of the short sleepers, with 70 percent of their body weight controlled by genes, compared to 32 percent for the long sleepers. Body weight is shaped by many factorsboth genetic and environmentalthat combine to determine how much you weigh. Previous studies have shown that genes can influence weight by controlling many of your body’s functions, such as glucose metabolism, energy use, storage of fatty acids, and feeling full. By affecting those genes, sleep can also alter weight. "The less sleep you get, the more your genes contribute to how much you weigh. The more sleep you get, the less your genes determine how much you weigh," Dr. Nathaniel Watson, one of the study’s authors, told USA Today. Is it possible to sleep the pounds off? Not quite. Sleeping more than nine hours a night, though, can reduce the influence of your genes on your weight. That gives more power to environmental factorslike diet and exercisethings that you can consciously control. And if you're not sleeping well, try working out. You'll get a good night's rest and lose even more weight

12.01.2022 Aerobics between sets Most people rest passively between sets, regardless of whether the rest periods are 30 seconds or 5 minutes. Researchers from Malaysia, Australia, and New Zealand speculated that low-intensity aerobic exercise between sets might stimulate muscle hypertrophy. Light aerobics stresses metabolism and increases hormones, such as IGF-1 and growth hormone, which help muscles grow. In addition, aerobics would also provide a neutral and mechanical stimulus to th...e muscles. I'm going to give this a try myself and see how it goes! (strength & Conditioning Journal, 34:8-15,2012)

05.01.2022 As if we needed a reason but here are 5 reason why we should all have a little chocolate 1. It’s loaded with antioxidants Dark chocolate contains hefty amounts of disease-fighting flavenoids, antioxidants also found in red wine and many fruits and vegetables. In fact, it appears to have more flavenoids than any other food... 2. It may lower cholesterol A small study from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign found that daily consumption of cocoa flavanol-containing dark chocolate lowered cholesterol and improved blood pressure. While the research was funded by chocolate manufacturer Mars, Inc., the study was double-blinded and peer reviewed 3. It may prevent pregnancy complications A new study reports that a chemical (theobromine) found in chocolate may reduce preeclampsia, a major pregnancy complication. The darker the chocolate, the better. Preeclampsia is primarily noted for raising blood pressure in pregnant women, and eating chocolate helps to lower this risk by up to 69 percent. The study of nearly 2,300 women established greater benefits to those who ate five or more servings per week, especially in their third trimester. Despite the results from this study, researchers have said that further studies are needed to prove the direct link between chocolate and preclampsia. 4. It helps prevent heart disease A recent study shows that people who regularly consume 70% dark chocolate (about 20 g per day) show a marked improvement in blood flow, while no improvement is observed in those who eat processed chocolate, which contains very little cocoa paste. It seems that the positive effect of dark chocolate is linked to a property in its polyphenols that releases a chemical messenger, nitric oxide, which increases arterial dilatation, at the same time improving blood flow and reducing platelet aggregation. However, it is important to note that previous studies have shown that milk prevents the absorption of dark chocolate’s polyphenols, thereby neutralizing its beneficial effects. Milk contains large amounts of casein, a protein that interacts with polyphenols and prevents them from being efficiently absorbed by the intestine. It is therefore always preferable to consume dark chocolate unaccompanied by milk. 6. It may improve your skin Researchers at Germany’s Heinrich Heine University exposed chocolate eaters to ultraviolet light and found that after six weeks, they had 15 percent less skin reddening than those who didn’t eat it. We believe the compounds in chocolate act as UV filters, says study leader Wilhelm Stahl. After 12 weeks, the chocolate eaters’ skin was 16 percent denser and 42 percent less scaly. Concerned about it causing acne? Researchers at Australia’s University of Newcastle reviewed the evidence and found nothing to suggest that chocolate triggers blemishes. credit: http://www.besthealthmag.ca//7-reasons-why-chocolate-is-he
