NEW YORK, March 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --Weight loss issues cannot be solved overnight. It takes a longer period of discipline and focus to enact the necessary dietary changes. That is precisely why the Academy of Nutrition and dietetics has declared March as National Nutrition Month, encouraging doctors and nutritionists around the country to provide patients with a greater understanding of what it means to eat right. The Huffington Post reports that this year's nutrition theme is "Get Your Plate in Shape," a theme that resonates with nutrition consultant Matthew Vettese.
"This year's nutrition theme is great because it reminds lay people of just how simple and pragmatic it is to exercise proper eating habits," notes Matthew Vettese, a Florida-based nutrition expert. "It's all about reducing caloric intake while increasing nutrient consumption, meaning that anyone can improve their dietary habits just by paying attention to what they put on their plate for each given meal."
In fact, Matthew Vettese advises that one of the easiest ways to guard against improper eating habits is for individuals to literally examine their plates. "Investing in smaller, colorful plates is a great, practical way to reduce serving sizes," he notes. "When you've cleaned your plate, you'll feel like you're full, and like you've eaten more than you really have."
Of course, the right balance of foods is also important. Matthew Vettese encourages filling half the plate with fruits and vegetables, a quarter with protein, and a quarter with whole-grain carbs.
For those seeking to lose weight and get fit, Matthew Vettese offers another, simple solution: A person shouldn't eat if he or she is not full. "It's remarkable how many of us are conditioned to keep eating long after we're full, just in the interest of cleaning our plate," notes the nutrition expert. "It's always a better to put leftovers in the fridge as opposed to eating and eating until everything is gone."
Finally, Matthew Vettese notes that National Nutrition Month can be observed without total deprivation of the sweeter things. "It's not a bad idea to treat yourself, in moderation, every now and then," he notes. "This is a good way of ensuring that you don't just break down and splurge one day because you miss your favorite sweets and treats."

Everyday you have to navigate a toxic nutritional landscape. You have to hunt and gather in a food desert. You have to survive the American supermarket and dodge the dangers of industrial food. The good news is that if you follow ten simple rules you can eat safely for life.
Think of them as shortcuts or tricks to use when shopping or eating. If you just do these things and nothing else, you will automatically be eating real, fresh food that will prevent, treat and even reverse most of the chronic diseases that drain our energy, stress our families and deplete our economy. You dont even have to understand anything about nutrition. Just follow these goof proof rules for getting healthy, losing weight and feeling great.
1. Ideally have only food without labels in your kitchen or foods that dont come in a box, a package, or a can. There are labeled foods that are great, like sardines, artichoke hearts, or roasted red peppers, but you have to be very smart in reading the labels. There are two things to look for: the ingredient list and the nutrition facts. Check out my special report on How to Read Labels for more information.
Where is the primary ingredient on the list? If the real food is at the end of the list and the sugar or salt is at the beginning, beware. The most abundant ingredient is listed first and the others are listed in descending order by weight. Be conscious, too, of ingredients that may not be on the list; some ingredients may be exempt from labels. This is often true if the food is in a very small package, if it has been prepared in the store, or if it has been made by a small manufacturer. Beware of these foods.
2. If a food has a label it should have fewer than five ingredients. If it has more than five ingredients, throw it out. Also beware of food with health claims on the label. They are usually bad for you think sports beverages. I recently saw a bag of deep-fried potato chips with the health claims gluten-free, organic, no artificial ingredients, no sugar and with fewer than 5 ingredients listed. Sounds great, right? But remember, cola is 100 percent fat-free and that doesnt make it a health food.
3. If sugar (by any name, including organic cane juice, honey, agave, maple syrup, cane syrup, or molasses) is on the label, throw it out. There may be up to 33 teaspoons of sugar in the average bottle of ketchup. Same goes for white rice and white flour, which act just like sugar in the body. If you have diabesity the spectrum of metabolic imbalances starting with just a little belly fat, leading all the way to diabetes you cant easily handle any flour, even whole-grain. Throw it out.
4. Throw out any food with high-fructose corn syrup on the label. It is a super sweet liquid sugar that takes no energy for the body to process. Some high-fructose corn syrup also contains mercury as a by-product of the manufacturing process. Many liquid calories, such as sodas, juices, and sports drinks, contain this metabolic poison. It always signals low quality or processed food.
5. Throw out any food with the word hydrogenated on the label. This is an indicator of trans fats, vegetable oils converted through a chemical process into margarine or shortening. They are good for keeping cookies on the shelf for long periods of time without going stale, but these fats have been proven to cause heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. New York City and most European counties have banned trans fats, and you should, too.
6. Throw out any highly refined cooking oils such as corn, soy, etc. (I will explain which oils to buy in Week 1 of the program in my book The Blood Sugar Solution). Also avoid toxic fats and fried foods.
7. Throw out any food with ingredients you cant recognize, pronounce, or that are in Latin.

Mila Kunis attends the Christian Dior Ready-To-Wear Fall/Winter 2012 show as part of Paris Fashion Week at Musee Rodin on March 2 in Paris, France.
By Diane Mapes
Losing weight like a star may seem like a dream come true. With a personal trainer, personal chef, personal dietitian and personal assistant at your side, who couldn't shed 20 pounds in a few short weeks?
But a new interview with actress Mila Kunis in Harper's Bazaar indicates that fast weight loss (in this case for a role) can sometimes result in fast weight gain -- in all the wrong places.
Already lean, Kunis dropped 20 pounds in order to play Natalie Portman's ballerina frenemy in "Black Swan." At 95 pounds, Kunis says "I was muscles, like a little brick house, but skin and bones."
Unfortunately, when she gained the weight back, Kunis says it ended up in completely different places.
"All the weight that left my chest went to my side hip, my stomach," she told the magazine.
Andrea N. Giancoli, a registered dietitian and spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, says redistributed weight isn't uncommon after drastic weight loss (and weight gain).
"What often happens with extreme weight loss and when you lose weight very quickly is that you lose muscle tissue," she says. "Unfortunately, when we gain the weight back, it comes back as fat."

Mila Kunis, 'Black Swan' and how extreme diets warp your body

Washington, March 7 : An Oregon State University researcher, who reviewed the evidence surrounding hundreds of weight loss supplements, has said that no research evidence exists that any single product results in significant weight loss and many have detrimental health benefits.
A few products, including green tea, fiber and low-fat dairy supplements, can have a modest weight loss benefit of 3-4 pounds (2 kilos), but it is important to know that most of these supplements were tested as part of a reduced calorie diet.
"For most people, unless you alter your diet and get daily exercise, no supplement is going to have a big impact," said Melinda Manore of Oregon State University.
Manore looked at supplements that fell into four categories: products such as chitosan that block absorption of fat or carbohydrates, stimulants such as caffeine or ephedra that increase metabolism, products such as conjugated linoleic acid that claim to change the body composition by decreasing fat, and appetite suppressants such as soluble fibers.
She found that many products had no randomized clinical trials examining their effectiveness, and most of the research studies did not include exercise.
Most of the products showed less than a two-pound weight loss benefit compared to the placebo groups.
"I don't know how you eliminate exercise from the equation. The data is very strong that exercise is crucial to not only losing weight and preserving muscle mass, but keeping the weight off," Manore said.
Manore, professor of nutrition and exercise sciences at OSU, is on the Science Board for the President's Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition. Her research is focused on the interaction of nutrition and exercise on health and performance.
"What people want is to lose weight and maintain or increase lean tissue mass," Manore said.

Weight loss supplements 'not effective'
Posted: March 7, 2012 at 10:54 pm
Washington, March 7 (IANS) Weight loss supplements are not really effective in helping you shed weight and may have unpleasant or serious side-effects.
Melinda Manore, from Oregon State University, reviewing evidence surrounding hundreds of weight loss supplements, concluded that no single product results in significant weight loss and many have side-effects.
"What people want is to lose weight and maintain or increase lean tissue mass," Manore said. "There is no evidence that any one supplement does this. And some have side effects ranging from the unpleasant, such as bloating and gas, to very serious issues such as strokes and heart problems."
A few products, including green tea, fibre and low-fat dairy supplements, can have a modest weight loss benefit of three to four pounds, but it is important to know that most of these supplements were tested as part of a reduced calorie diet, the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism reports.
"For most people, unless you alter your diet and get daily exercise, no supplement is going to have a big impact," said Manore, according to an Oregon statement.
Manore looked at supplements that fell into four categories: products such as chitosan that block absorption of fat or carbohydrates, stimulants such as caffeine or ephedra that increase metabolism, products such as conjugated linoleic acid that claim to change the body composition by decreasing fat, and appetite suppressants such as soluble fibres.
She found that many products had no randomized clinical trials examining their effectiveness, and most of the research studies did not include exercise. Most of the products showed less than a two-pound weight loss benefit compared to the placebo groups.
"I don't know how you eliminate exercise from the equation. The data is very strong that exercise is crucial to not only losing weight and preserving muscle mass, but keeping the weight off," said Manore, professor of nutrition and exercise sciences at Oregon.
Manore said the key to weight loss is to eat whole grains, fruits, vegetables and lean meats, reduce calorie intake of high-fat foods, and to keep moving.
"Adding fiber, calcium, protein and drinking green tea can help," Manore said. "But none of these will have much effect unless you exercise and eat fruits and vegetables," Manroe added.

Weight loss supplements are no good

Camille Tirzah could practically live in the blue jeans she wore a little more than five years ago when she weighed 232 pounds.
But the Ocean Ridge resident lost the excess weight and kept it off. Her story was featured on the cover of People magazine, and now she's advising and encouraging others as a weight loss coach and certified nutrition specialist for Personal Physician Care, 4800 Linton Blvd.
Once a pre-diabetic patient herself, Tirzah is focusing on patients who are diabetic and are looking for weight management programs.
The success stories have been gratifying.
"One patient's endocrinologist has almost taken him off of his medications. He has been a diabetic for years, and in three months, he is experiencing an almost reversal of diabetic condition," Tirzah said. "It's doctor-supervised, individual-customized, not one-size-fits-all."
Tirzah focuses on body mass index and healthy eating.
"There are no quick fixes to losing weight," she said. "But over a very short amount of time, patients will feel the satisfaction of improved overall health, appearance and vitality."
Founded by Dr. David Neuman, Personal Physician Care is one of the largest primary care practices in Delray Beach, with seven doctors, two-dozen exam rooms, a doctor-supervised weight-loss program and an aesthetics center.
Tirzah and Personal Physician Care have recently partnered with Pharmanex, a nutritional and dietary supplement company, to bring the BioPhotonic Scanner and the LifePak Nano daily supplement package to the practice. Every weight loss patient is monitored via hand palm checks and given a Skin Carotenoid Score. The score quantifies antioxidant activity in the body.
The scanner gives patients a score of between 10,000 and 50,000 tissue carotenoid concentrations. The score is logged via a keychain card that accesses a computer program.

After studying weight loss supplements and the body of evidence surrounding them, an Oregon State University researcher has found that no single product is proven 100 percent effective. In fact, many can be harmful to your health.
Melinda Manore posted her study online in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism.
Manore is the professor of nutrition and exercise sciences at Oregon State University, and is a member of the Science Board for the Presidents Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition. Manore found that some of the products she researched, such as green tea, fiber, and low-fat dairy supplements, did achieve a small weight loss benefit of no more than 4 pounds. However, Manore warns that it is important to remember that these products may have been effective because they were used in tandem with a reduced calorie diet.
For most people, unless you alter your diet and get daily exercise, no supplement is going to have a big impact, Manore said.
The supplements studied fell into four categories: products such as chitosan that block absorption of fat or carbohydrates, stimulants such as caffeine or ephedra that increase metabolism, products such as conjugated linoleic acid that claim to change the body composition by decreasing fat, and appetite suppressants such as soluble fibers.
In her research, she found that clinical trials examining the supplements effectiveness were not randomized. Furthermore, the research studies for many of these supplements did not include a daily exercise regimen as a part of the trial. In fact, the majority of the products showed less than a 2 pound weight loss when compared to the placebo.
Manores research focuses on the effects of nutrition and exercise on health and performance.
In her study, Manore said What people want is to lose weight and maintain or increase lean tissue mass. There is no evidence that any one supplement does this. And some have side effects ranging from the unpleasant, such as bloating and gas, to very serious issues such as strokes and heart problems.
Manore suggests the old fashioned method of healthy diet and exercise as a means to lose weight, rather than taking supplements to build muscle or shed pounds.
