Shining the Light on Brown Fat

British Study Says Obesity May Be Influenced By Daylight The last time brown fat was news, I predicted it’d be back in the health headlines when the sleigh bells were a jingling, ring-ting-a-tingling. Consider it an early Christmas gift. Back in April, the last time I talked about brown fat, a study was published in [...]

Pomegranate Prevention

Study Says the Seeded Apple May Help Prevent Obesity, Diabetes For me, the month of August is one of the more sad times of the year.  It’s a month of endings:  The summer’s last hurrah, the end of balmy weather, and final reminiscences at the family get-together. On the other hand, August can be a [...]

Booming Boomers

Baby Boomers Now the Heaviest Americans This article is brought to you by the word “boom.” The unemployment rate?  Booming, reaching a 26 year high in the month of June at 9.5 percent. The amount of rain in New York?  Booming, as June was one of the cloudiest, rainiest Junes on record – ever! And [...]

Obesity’s Deadly Deed

Obesity Increases Deadliest Forms of Cancer It goes without saying that any cancer diagnosis is bad news, but some diagnoses are worse than others. Virtually all cancers have good survival rates, so long as they’re diagnosed early, but some are hard just plain hard to pinpoint, which means that by the time they are diagnosed [...]

Head ‘lies’

Correcting the ‘Chubby’ Headlines on Lifespan Claims I’ve found in my writing of articles over the years that misleading headlines are becoming more and more commonplace. I wonder if I shouldn’t make it a weekly feature, something like, “The Latest Head‘lie’.” It’s almost as if the goal of headline writers is to get people to [...]

Chew on This: Almonds

Study:  Vigorous Chewing on Almonds Suppresses Appetite In a recent article, I talked about a certain chewing gum company promoting the fact that one ought to chew gum to avoid snack attacks in the middle of the afternoon.  Aside from the fact that traditional chewing gum is loaded with chemicals that can send your digestive [...]

Ah-Chew?

National Institutes of Health Links Obesity to Allergies While April showers bring the May flowers of the spring (though I’m starting to doubt that mantra, as it’s been raining in NYC for well over a week now), it ushers in an unwelcome rite of season as well:  allergies. Ah, yes, allergy season is upon us, [...]

Overweight Today, Disabled Tomorrow?

Study: Overweight in Young Life Triples Likelihood of Mobility Issues in Older Life Establishing a healthy lifestyle while young is so important.  It sets up a healthy habit that we’ll continue to live by throughout our life (remember, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior); it ensures that we won’t fall victim to [...]

‘Brown’ Back in Town

After Eight-Month Sabbatical, Brown Fat News Returns I often like to review past articles so as not to repeat myself.  Even though there’s a fairly constant flow of new health news developing, major media outlets are sometimes slow on the uptake, reporting on things that yours truly already knew about. So when news “broke” about [...]

Green Acres Really Is the Place to Be

Study: Park Populated Places Breed Active Kids Fans of Eva Gabor, I have news for you:  It turns out Green Acres really is “the place to be.” The eponymous 1965 television sitcom aired a wee bit before my time, but as I understand it, “Green Acres” centered on the life of two city slickers who [...]
