EVEN “HEALTHY OBESITY” MUST BE TREATED

By: | Tags:

Some people with obesity are free of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and several types of cancer which often accompany this condition, despite their high body mass index (BMI). It is known as “metabolically healthy obesity” but a new study suggests that the “healthy” attribute should be taken with a considerably large pinch of salt. It was confirmed that “metabolically healthy obesity” is not a harmless condition, and even people who remain free of metabolic diseases for decades face an increased risk of cardiovascular events. People with a normal […]

At normal levels, cholesterol is an essential substance (waxy and fat-like appearance) for the body. However, if concentrations in the blood get too high, it becomes a silent danger that puts people at risk of heart attack. Cholesterol is present in every cell of the body and has important natural functions when it comes to digesting foods, producing hormones, and generating vitamin D.

SAINT ANTHONY’S BREAD

By: | Tags:

St. Anthony was so moved by poverty that he once distributed to the poor all the bread of the convent in which he lived. Bread can be part of a healthful diet, if we know how to choose it. Give preference to bread made of less refined flours, dark or whole bread, watch for the fibres and say yes to the seeds! What makes you fat is not bread, but butter, the delicatessen, the cheeses, the jams that we apply on bread, and when we eat it with other starchy […]

TIP OF THE DAY of our nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: As you eat, avoid using your phone or computer, don’t read books or magazines, and keep the TV off. Whether it’s working through lunch at a desk or noshing on chips while watching Netflix, distracted eating is common. But while it might seem harmless, it may encourage you to overeat. A review of 24 studies found that distractions led people to consume more calories during a meal.
