Menopause and Weight Loss
Editor's note: If, like so many women, you're confronting the issue of weight gain and menopause, here's some advice from Dr. Deena Solomon, a Santa Monica-based weight management expert and the author of Immaculate Consumption: The Path to Lifelong Weight Management:
Develop Patience: Neutralize your mindset by reframing menopausal types of experiences. Being informed about the effects of estrogen provides a greater sense of control. First and foremost, women will need lots more patience to […]

Global Obesity Battle: What You Eat and How You Think

"My parents had a baby, a son, and he died at birth. I was 7, and I think that was the time I started gaining weight. My mother died when I was 12 very suddenly, and then my weight just escalated. By the time I got out of high school, I weighed about 260 pounds (118 kg)," Mulcahy said.

Take a Healthy New Approach to the Jewish Fast Days
My old friend Howard Steinberg, a practicing Orthodox Jew for over five decades, loves to fast. He sees it as a detox from accumulated sin that deprives him from greater spiritual growth.
"Fasting is about my spirituality," he said. "Even though I feel hunger, I focus on the meaning of the day, and my relationship with people and God. It is a total focus on my spirit. If I think of food, then I am thinking of […]

Doctors Say We Actually Need Salt in Our Diet, but It's All About Moderation
Salt sometimes gets a bad reputation. While we know we're not exactly supposed to let those white crystals snow on everything we eat, it's actually not that bad for us in many circumstances. We may avoid it in an effort to be healthy, but it's also often something necessary and helpful to becoming healthier. Many people don't realize that salt, or sodium chloride, is composed of vital components our body actually needs.
"We lose salt when […]

According to Experts, This Diet Rule Is the Key to Weight Loss
When trying to lose weight, the specific diet plan you're on might not matter much. What experts say gets you pound-shedding results is an equation called CICO or "calories in, calories out." For weight loss to work, you have to restrict calories in some way, so it doesn't quite make a difference if you're eating keto, Whole30, Paleo, or gluten-free, so long as you're making sure you take in less calories than you're burning.
What Are […]

The six-week period between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day include more consecutive days of partying than other times of the year. Often, alcohol is factored into the mix. Besides getting "buzzed" from the drink, liquor has a profound effect when it comes to food. A pre-dinner cocktail stimulates one's appetite in general, but it particularly stimulates appetite for sugary, salty, and oily foods – three […]
