Exposure to chemicals found in food packaging could be messing with hormones and triggering weight problems even in "low concentrations", warn scientists.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Phthalates - chemicals that make plastic more flexible - may get into food and become ingested.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Found in food packaging, they are most commonly transferred from containers of fatty products like cheese and sausages but can also get in to our bodies through the skin.</div>

When such "plasticisers" enter someone’s body, it may have knock on effects for a person’s hormones.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The researchers warned exposure to phthalates - which can also be found in vinyl flooring and tablecloths - may alter metabolic processes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Metabolic processes affect the rate at which you burn energy, therefore calories - as a consequence any disruption may cause weight gain.</div>

A ground-breaking six-year study found middle aged who drank sugar-sweetened drinks put on 30 per cent MORE visceral fat than those who didn’t drink the drinks at all.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those who drank sugar-sweetened drinks once a week, but not daily, were eight per cent more likely to carry the dangerous body fat around their middle. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Visceral fat is found around the abdominal cavity and therefore around important internal organs such as liver, pancreas and intestines.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is thought to heighten heart disease and diabetes risk because of the way it impairs hormone function and insulin resistance.</div>

The results of the study showed participants who drank sugary or fizzy drinks every day put on nearly a litre of this harmful fat. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those who had a weekly fizzy drink put on over 700ml of visceral fat.</div>

Scientists from the US National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute said diet drinks had no impact on the levels of fat participants carried around their middle.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even though the researchers couldn’t pinpoint exactly why sugary beverages increased the amount of this type of fat, they suggest it could be as a result of insulin resistance caused by excess sugar intake. </div>

Eating the dairy dessert each day can lead to "significant loss of body fat", according to a York University study.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Such is the evidence, that experts now believe it could soon be prescribed by GPs to help the overweight people shed pounds.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
Previous searches for a link between yoghurt and losing weight have produced mixed results.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
This latest research pooled the conclusions of more than 20 papers, before confirming the strong correlation between eating yoghurt and losing weight.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
The study, published in the International Journal of Obesity, said that while not solving obesity on its own, it could nevertheless be used as tool to help.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
The report, authored by Dr Richard Atkinson, explained: "Consumption of yoghurt will not be a panacea for [being] overweight / obesity, but the simple addition of yoghurt to the daily diet may facilitate significant loss of body fat.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
"This relatively achievable and low-cost dietary change could thereby help in minimising the impact of obesity and improve public health.</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
"The ready availability of yoghurt, a nutrient-dense food, and its ease of introduction to most diets suggests that educating the public to eat yoghurt as part of a balanced and healthy diet may potentially contribute to improved public health."</div>
<div class="storycopy" style="text-align: justify;">
In the UK, 67 per cent of men and 57 per cent of women are now either overweight or obese. Every year 50,000 men and 32,000 women in England suffer a heart attack and heart disease is the UK's biggest killer.</div>

Millions of us mistakenly believe wholesome food is less filling and gorge ourselves on bigger portions.</div>

Despite billions of pounds spent encouraging people to try healthier alternatives, overeating remains one of the main causes of obesity.</div>

Now a study has suggested nutritious food could be adding to the crisis as people devour more in the belief it will do no harm.</div>

Fear not, everyone's in the same boat when it comes to feeling a little fatter this week than last, especially after that turkey dinner and all the chocolates in the evening. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's not uncommon for people, including athletes, to treat Christmas as a time to unwind, enjoy a drink and overindulge in great tasting, calorie-dense food. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sometimes, the festive binge results in unwanted gains in body weight - which is never enjoyable in the winter months. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's important to get the right balance of eating healthily and enjoying the festive period, so - with Nutrition X, a sports nutrition company - here are 10 tips to keep you healthy throughout the Christmas period. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Don’t neglect your training </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Keeping active during the festive season is a simple and important factor that can help keep you fit and strong. Work hard in training and enjoy your favourite carb-based festive treats as recovery foods after your workout. For any team-sport athletes who still compete on a weekly basis over Christmas and New Year, it is important to control your intake and select your foods based on your energy requirements. Stay tuned for the next article that will discuss how to maintain your training during the winter. </div>

<strong>Eat a rainbow</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We’ve done all right up till now, but as winter gets colder you can become more susceptible to illness, especially during training. Support your immune system by eating a variety of colourful foods to ensure your body gets all the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. If you’re at a party with a buffet, make sure you have a ‘rainbow’ of festive foods on your plate. </div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
White - lean turkey meat, parsnips</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Red – cranberries, tomatoes</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Orange – carrots, sweet potatoes </div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Yellow – potatoes, peppers</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Green – Brussel sprouts, lettuce</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Blue – blueberries, blue cheese (go easy)</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Purple – beetroot, red cabbage, aubergine</div>
</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Start your day well</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Eat breakfast like a King… Having a good breakfast is the best way to start your day, and may also stop you from overeating at later meal times, and picking in between. A higher protein breakfast is also much better for suppressing appetite later in the day than a high carbohydrate breakfast e.g. cereal and toast. Eggs, Greek yoghurt with mixed fruit and nuts/seeds, or protein pancakes are all excellent choices for breakfast.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Don’t turn up to a party hungry</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
‘I won’t have any lunch as I’ll be having a big meal later’. Sound familiar? Starving yourself in preparation for a big meal later in the day (e.g. Christmas party) is the easiest way to overeat and opt for all the naughty foods available! Eat a normal lunch and maybe even a protein based snack (smoothie, vegetable omelette, yoghurt and fruit) before you go to reduce your sweet-tooth temptation and prevent you from eating everything there. </div>

<strong>Stay hydrated & drink sensibly</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When you’re in party mode it’s very easy to drink too much alcohol without any consideration for hydration…then you wake up with a sore head! Alcohol is a well-known diuretic, so be sensible this Christmas and drink water regularly, especially with meals and before bed, to keep hydrated and feeling fresh the next day. Alcohol is also high in calories with 7kcal per gram. A 4 ounce (113ml) glass of champagne contains 90-100 kcal; a glass of wine is typically 150-200kcal; and a pint of beer contains 200-250kcal. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Vitamin D – the sunshine vitamin</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Throughout the winter months we are deprived of sunshine, meaning people are likely to be deficient in vitamin D. Vitamin D is very important for health as it plays a major role in regulating bone health and calcium homeostasis, nutrient absorption, muscle & immune function.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately, vitamin D cannot be sufficiently sourced in the diet with only select foods containing small amounts (fortified milks & cereals, oily fish, shitake mushrooms). Therefore a daily vitamin D3 supplement of approx. 4,000 IU will help prevent deficiency and keep you healthy during the winter months. </div>

<strong>Little and often</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Snacking can be a real issue around Christmas time because there’s so many treats on offer. However ‘saving your appetite’ can also mean that you overindulge in one big meal, and then you’re inevitably going to fall asleep because you’ve eaten too much. Either way it’s likely that you’re going to overeat. Therefore, have smaller portions more often throughout the day by using smaller plates and bowls, and if you opt for a cheeky mince pie, have it alongside healthier lower-calorie options e.g. celery & carrot sticks with low-fat hummus. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Eat the good stuff first</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Whether you’re at a party or at home cooking dinner, fill your plate with the sensible options first. Selection of lean meats, vegetables and salad, new potatoes and wholegrains, followed by low fat Greek yoghurt and fruit should be prioritised. THEN, if you’re wanting a sweet pudding, you can still enjoy a treat without feeling the need to have loads of them. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>80/20</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This rule doesn’t just apply to festive periods…it’s all year round! Sticking to a well-planned diet that meets your energy and nutrient requirements 80% of the time, allows you to enjoy a treat the remaining 20%. This is not only good for you mentally, but you’re also more likely to stick to a diet and healthy lifestyle if you reward yourself every now and then. Give it a go this Christmas, and if you’re like me and love a mince pie, reward yourself so long as you’ve trained hard and eaten well the majority of the time. </div>

The research, conducted on mice, discovered the rodents stayed lean - even after gorging - because they had higher concentrations of a particular gene called Ucp1.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ucp1 actually helps to burn off excess pounds by converting the fat into heat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The fat mice had higher concentrations of two other 'obesity genes', Cnot7 and Tob.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those obesity genes damage the body’s good brown fat - the type of fat that produces lots of heat by burning calories, and helps to keep weight off.</div>
