Can Food Stamp Users Be Stopped From Buying Soda?
In the tough battle to fight against obesity, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture to ban the 1.7 million users to use food stamps to buy soda, or other soft drinks.
This initiative is part of a series of interventions to fight against obesity, which included advertising, stricter rules on food sold in schools, and an attempt to tax sugary drinks.
Whilst it may be surrounded by political and ethical debate, it's not a bad idea really, is it? In fact, wouldn't it be great if food stamps were used to buy vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs, dairy products, nuts, seeds and canned products - healthy foods?
For a healthier nation, this thing should be signed, sealed and delivered as of today, but in the "humor us" department, let's take a look at some of the thorny issues that may arise such stipulation.
Ethically, is it fair to discriminate against those who have food stamps? Who are we to tell them what they can and can not buy?
Conversely, we all have a collective responsibility to ensure that already off-the-track health care spending does not go even further into the abyss.
The thread of the "big-brother" argument here is "How dare they tell people what they can and can not eat or drink," but let's not forget that the regulation of what people can get their government assistance on is not the same as telling people what they can and can not eat or drink.
Like many other ideas, the problems are deeply rooted, and the solution is multifaceted. Although this is a good idea, there are bigger fish to fry - specifically corn subsidies that keep prices artificially low.
Ultimately I do not see this passage because of the industry-cozy relationship between regulators and major food government food. I'm sure they have soda lobbyists working overtime to ensure that this idea never sees the light of day. In addition, in 2004, the Agriculture Department has rejected a request by Minnesota to prevent recipients of food stamps to buy junk food.
What are your thoughts on this?

What Are Your Family Food Staples?

Ever wonder what the staple foods are in another person's diet?
Here in the UK we have Gillian McKeith's TV show, "You Are What You Eat", and while I certainly don't agree with many of Gillian's concepts, I love how she delves into the eating habits of those families, laying it out for the whole nation to see.
It certainly makes interesting viewing, if nothing else.
In less dramatic fashion, Walletpop recently asked dietitians and nutritionists what food stocked their pantries and refrigerators.
Here are some of their choices:
Oatmeal, fruits and vegetables, beans, avocado, wild salmon, nuts, eggs, cottage cheese, grass-fed beef, hummusNothing very strange or startling there perhaps, but interesting nonetheless.
Some of my weekly food staples include oatmeal, natural yogurt, lentils, spinach and coffee (oh, and a little chocolate!).
What about you -- what foods are the major staples in your diet on a daily/weekly basis?

What Good Foods Can Do For You (Study)
A study led by Lund University professor (of food-related nutrition) Inger Björck has addressed the health effects of a diet made up of multiple foods that are thought to reduce inflammation. The study details are as follows;
Forty-four healthy, overweight people between the ages of 50 and 75 took part in the diet study. Over a four week period they ate foods which are supposed to reduce low-grade inflammation in the body, a condition which in turn leads to metabolic syndrome and thus obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The test diet was rich in antioxidants, low-GI foods (ie, slow-release carbohydrates), omega fatty acids, whole grains, probiotics and dietary fibre. Foods eaten include fatty fish, barley, blueberries , almonds, soy protein, cinnamon, and vinegar and a particular type of whole bread. LDL cholesterol, blood lipids and blood pressure were reduced by 33 percent, 14 percent, and 8 percent respectively. A risk marker for blood clots was decreased by 26 percent; and a marker of inflammation was also greatly reduced, while memory and cognitive functions were improved.
Results of the study make sense as they are healthy, mostly unprocessed foods which have been shown to have health benefits individually. It would however be rash to assume that this group of foods is the best way to eat - any diet change is usually a large improvement in the average diet habits. Other diets could be equally (or at least competitive) as effective as the pattern they chose - as long as calorie consumption was restricted. A control group would be justified for this study to give a little more credibility. It would be interesting to to see what kind of weight loss participants experienced.

Mothers Underestimate Influence On Their Kids' Weight

A survey of 1,037 women has uncovered a knowledge gap when it comes to certain weight issues - including their influence on their children's weight.
Here are some of the findings of the survey - conducted by HealthyWomen.
Not surprisingly, most respondents know that obesity leads to an increased risk for health problems, such as high blood pressure (93%), type 2 diabetes (89%), and heart disease (88%).Less than one-third of the women, however, know that obesity is associated with increased risk of colon cancer (26%), gallstones (30%), and breast cancer (23%).While 87% of women believe a parent's obesity affects a child's risk of becoming obese, only 28% assign that responsibility to themselves.Only 11% of respondents know that a child's risk of becoming obese more than doubles if the mother is obese during her first trimester of pregnancy.Elizabeth Battaglino Cahill, Executive Director of HealthyWomen says this:
From an early age, children tend to eat the same foods as their parents, especially mothers, so exposure to nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables is not only setting a good example, but also positioning your child on a lifelong course of good health. SourceEducation is central to change, but knowledge is only power if you choose to use it. To be sure, prevention of childhood obesity and healthy children begins at home - with BOTH parents (if there are 2 parents involved).
It goes without saying that mom and dad need to change their ways to become the healthy role-models for children.
While growing healthy habits in children starts at home, it would be folly to put 100% of the responsibility on parents. I firmly believe in the idea that it takes a village to raise a child, and in this case to raise a healthy, active child. The culture and environment children are exposed to nowadays may be one that sets them up for failure. Change needs to take place in communities, schools and various levels of government, especially for higher risk children.
Battaglino Cahill sums it up nicely when she says;
Empowering and educating women is the best way we know to break the cycle of obesity and promote healthy habits for the life of any woman and her loved ones.

Weight Loss Goal Setting
Earlier in the week I was doing some research browsing health and weight loss forums.
In reports from people who have achieved great results, a recurring theme was goal setting. I personally love self-development and have done many courses in this field, so have often covered goal setting tips and strategies, but I am also aware that for many people it is something new, and having to educate yourself on goal-setting techniques, whilst trying to learn and apply healthy weight loss strategies can be overwhelming. Which is why I wanted to just keep this brief and repeat the recommendation of one lady from the forum who has herself lost 20lbs, and her husband 43lbs - in the beginning keep it simple.
Think about the some of following and set goals each week, but keep it simple as too many goals may confuse and overwhelm you. Consider how you may improve your diet; what is your exercise plan; what amount of weight would you like to lose? Having something to aim towards gives you direction, and a way to monitor your progress and make necessary adjustments. If you don't achieve every goal you set, don't be dis-heartened or overly critical; just always be honest with yourself about what you did or didn't do each week and keep making necessary adjustments (this may mean adjusting your diet or exercise or it may mean altering your goals if they were unrealistic).

Q&A with Dr. Howard Murad
![]() |
Q: I’ve always heard that I should drink eight glasses of water a day. But in your book you talk about “eating your water.” Why is eating your water better than drinking it?
A: What happens when you drink eight glasses of water a day? You are in the bathroom eight times – or more – flushing your system of vital nutrients. The best source of hydration is the water built into the structure of the foods we eat (structured water) especially raw fruits and vegetables. This form of hydration lasts longer since water is released slowly as you digest and doesn’t merely flush through. That’s why I encourage my patients to replace one glass of water a day with raw fruits or vegetables. Not only will they feel more hydrated, they will be getting more of the vital nutrients they need to build healthy, watertight cells, which are essential to keeping their bodies fully hydrated and operating at their peak.
Q: Will improving my ability to hold cellular water prevent me from developing chronic illnesses and diseases?
A: The Water Secret is not a cure for illness or diseases. Living according to the insights I offer in the book helps to create an Inclusive Health lifestyle that helps you create the optimal environment in your body to help fight illness and disease. At my practice, I see numerous patients who are suffering from a range of diseases in addition to their skin concerns. Many of my patients with cancer have adopted an Inclusive Health lifestyle and attribute their ability to withstand the rigors of chemotherapy to their improvement in overall cellular health. The Water Secret is not a cure but a guide to helping you become as healthy and strong as possible so you can live life to the fullest – no matter what your life may look like and at any age. By adhering to the guidelines presented in The Water Secret, you are aiding every cell in your body by giving them the best environment to thrive and become healthy.
Q: If I have a problem sticking to a diet to lose weight, how is The Water Secret different than a diet?
A: Although weight loss is a common benefit of living inclusively, The Water Secret isn’t a diet – so it really doesn’t create the physical and psychological burden of deprivation that a diet usually creates. To live inclusively, I believe that people should eat what they enjoy but also incorporate healthy raw fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins and other nutritious food and dietary supplements into their daily meal plans. The Water Secret is not limiting; it is about small lifestyle changes that add up to a life transformation. In The Water Secret, I have included recipes and suggestions on how to integrate healthy, delicious foods into your diet to build the strong new cells you need to optimize your overall health.
Q: What is the overall philosophy of The Water Secret?
A: The Water Secret is a paradigm shift in truly understanding the aging process. In the book, I introduce people to a new way of looking at care that I call Inclusive Health® that optimizes the health of the whole person beginning at the cellular level. Inclusive Health accomplishes this through a 3-prong approach that addresses cellular health by focusing on topical, internal and emotional self care. This care is not focused on resolving or preventing one specific problem – but resolves problems in the context of making the whole body healthier. Inclusive Health is a unified way to look at health and aging. Every cell in your body is connected and if we can improve cellular health, we can make a dramatic change in our lives, our looks and even slow the aging process. I believe that with a little effort anyone can learn to live inclusively and feel as young as possible.

What's Your Weight Loss Philosophy - Deprivation vs Pleasure?
I know there are a lot of people out there who want quick fixes or just think of weightloss as an isolated goal, but I have always been of the opinion that being at a goal weight is by-product of living an all-round healthy life, which in my mind includes a healthy or positive way of thinking.
For these reasons, when I recently came across the philosophy and teachings of Tonya Leigh, they really resonated with me, and I thought they could really benefit a lot of women out there (of course this stuff can be useful for men too, however Tonya seems to have chosen to focus her efforts on women). Tonya's philosophy which has pleasure at its core, is reportedly derived from the French culture. The idea of daily consistent habits causing the biggest results in life echoes those Mireille Guiliano discussed in French Women Don't Get Fat
Tonya says:
So, if you were to stop now and think about it - is it time for a clean up? Because really, the weight issue is often not really just about weight, but much deeper issues. Perhaps you already know this and have your own way of dealing with it, but if any of this resonates with you at all, wouldn't it be at least a bit of fun, and possibly life changing to start exploring Tonya's way of thinking - to rule your own world and "live a life full of pleasure and passion WHILE looking and feeling fabulous."
You can find out more about Tonya, her philosophies and her coaching program at http://www.tonyaleigh.com
Happy "cleaning"! :)
