</tbody></table>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you want to lose weight, just eat less and move more. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With a few straightforward changes such as skipping dessert and walking an extra 20 minutes a day, virtually anyone could become lean for life. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It’s just a matter of “energy balance”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So people who are overweight must be either uninformed or lacking in willpower. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This way of thinking gave us the low-fat diet. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since the fat in food has more than twice the calories of an equivalent amount of protein or carbohydrate, cutting back on dietary fat should lead to automatic weight loss. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out as hoped. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rates of obesity in the UK and US skyrocketed as we progressively replaced fat with carbohydrates. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Recent scientific reviews show that typical low-fat diets produce less weight loss than other comparison diets. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Of even greater concern, a focus on fat reduction may increase risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer and cognitive decline, according to new findings from the Predimed study which looked at whether following a Mediterranean diet could prevent cardiovascular disease. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Clearly the low-fat way has failed but not for lack of trying. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So where do we go from here? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I began my career as an endocrinologist in the early 90s, the low-fat diet had become almost universally accepted. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The US Department of Agriculture had just published the Food Guide Pyramid which encouraged us to fill up on grains (six to 11 servings per day) and consume fat sparingly.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I had little formal training in nutrition – medical schools are notorious for neglecting diet in favour of drugs – but my ignorance turned out to be a blessing. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rather than thinking of obesity as a simple problem of energy balance, I became interested in why people overeat. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What made some people feel persistently hungry, despite eating enough food to satisfy calorie requirements? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And why were so few people able to lose weight over the long term, even as they suffered physically and emotionally from being heavy? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I spent months in the Harvard medical library poring over research studies, some dating back a century. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although the knowledge isn’t commonly appreciated in clinical practice, scientists have suspected for decades that biology, more so than willpower, determines body weight over the long term. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When animals in experiments are forced to eat more than normal they of course gain weight. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But the animals lose all interest in food and metabolism speeds up in an attempt to shed the extra weight. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Human volunteers in force-feeding studies feel just as miserable as those in starvation studies. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Afterwards their weight naturally declines right back to where it started. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
From this perspective, the conventional approach to weight loss, stressing self-control and willpower, seemed misguided. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Intrigued by these insights I determined to dedicate my career to obesity research and patient care. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This 20-year line of investigation has led me to an entirely different way of thinking about diet – not as a delivery system for calories but instead according to how food affects our hormones, our metabolism and ultimately our fat cells.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And I’ve come to a striking realisation:  </div>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Overeating doesn’t make us fat, the process of becoming fat makes us overeat.</div>
</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Our low-fat/high-carbohydrate diet (and other adverse influences in our environment) has triggered fat cells to hoard too many calories, leaving too few for the rest of the body. So we get hungry and metabolism slows. Cutting back calories only makes this situation worse, creating a battle between mind and metabolism that we’re destined to lose. </div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
The calorie-balance model fails in the real life for the simple reason that humans aren’t machines. Although we tend to think of obesity as a state of excess, it’s really a question of starvation to the body. The fundamental problem isn’t having too many calories in fat cells but too few in the bloodstream available to fuel the brain and other organs. </div>
</li>
</ul>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The three-phase programme in my book Always Hungry? aims to address this problem at the source – fat cells stuck in calorie-storage overdrive. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With a diet designed to lower insulin levels and calm chronic inflammation, fat cells can be reprogrammed to release their excess calories back into the body. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When that happens, cravings vanish and metabolism speeds up, leading to weight loss without the struggle. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And because this approach works with, rather than against, biology you get to eat until you’re satisfied, snack when hungry and never count calories again. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The diet is the opposite of low-calorie/low-fat. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It includes nuts, full-fat dairy, rich sauces and spreads, savoury proteins (with vegetarian alternatives) and real chocolate.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can enjoy a range of natural carbohydrates (root vegetables and whole grains) and in phase three we reintroduce some of the more processed carbohydrates such as bread and white potatoes, creating an individual plan for you. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The diet is so satisfying, you won’t miss all those highly-processed carbohydrates you might have overindulged in. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Participants in a 16-week national US pilot test consistently reported less hunger, fewer cravings, improved energy levels and enhanced wellbeing. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For an end to the deprivation approach to weight loss in 2016, forget calories, focus on food quality and let your body do the rest. l </div>

Always hungry? Why traditional low-calorie diets don't work...

IT SOUNDS so simple. Ditch your low-fat diet and try a new approach to weight loss - eating fat! If you want to lose weight...

<div style="text-align: justify;">
It’s the time of year when people are exercising and eating healthy, trying to compensate for a Christmas indulgence. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But if new research is to be believed, there’s one diet people should follow in order to shed the most pounds and stay healthy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The DASH plan has won the title of best overall diet for the sixth year in a row by US News in their annual awards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The creators of the diet describe it as "a flexible and balanced eating plan that helps creates a heart-healthy eating style for life."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
DASH, short for dietary approaches to stop hypertension, was created by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute in order to lower blood pressure and cholesterol, manage diabetes and help with weight loss.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The institute came up with the diet on the basis nutrients like potassium, calcium, protein and fibre are essential for lowering high blood pressure.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unlike many current diet trends DASH isn’t faddy and the rules are pretty simple. </div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dieters are advised to eat plenty of fruit and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy products and lean protein.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
People are also expected to cut out salt, fat-laden foods and those high in calories.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes Diet (TLC) diet - which claims to lower bad cholesterol by eight to 10 per cent in six weeks - came in a close second.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This diet focuses on cutting out foods high in fats, particularly the saturated variety and consuming more fibrous foods.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Coming in at third was the MIND diet aiming to prevent Alzheimers with brain healthy food, such as nuts, berries, fish, olive oil, poultry and vegetables. The diet is a combination of Mediterranean and DASH.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On the MIND diet, dieters are even permitted a small daily glass of wine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The research threw up some surprising results, and the lesser known Fertility Diet was awarded top place for beating diabetes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Whole30 diet, a 30-day eating programme that forbids legumes, grains, dairy, alcohol, added sugar and process foods came in bottom, because of its restrictive and short term nature.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
US News evaluated 38 of the most popular diets and identified the best, the complete list is below:</div>

The eating plan, called MIND, combines an established Mediterranean diet with DASH – Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (high blood pressure, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It beat off established rivals such as Weight Watchers in the list of the best diets for 2016.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unlike other weight-loss fads and trends, the MIND diet was specifically devised by epidemiologists from a leading medical school in a bid to ward off dementia symptoms in later life.</div>

The concept of ‘cutting carbs’ is widely accepted as a sure-fire way to lose weight. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
As The Independent reports, not all carb sources are created equal. While refined carbs - found in white bread, sugary cereals and junk food - are harmful to health, the whole food sources can be very good for you. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here are five reasons to NOT to cut the carbs... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>1. They’re full of fibre</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One thing we all know, is that fibre is loaded with health benefits. Soluble fibre - most commonly found in oats, legumes and potatoes - is renowned for its impacts on heart health and weight management. What’s more, almost all dietary fibres are in fact made of carbs. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>2. They can increase your lifespan</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The world’s longest living populations don’t shy away from carbs. Okinawa in Japan has the highest density of people over the age of 100 in the world. Their diet consists mainly of sweet potatoes, green vegetables and legumes. In Ikaria, Greek Islands, almost 30 per cent of the population live to be 90, and their diet is high in legumes, bread and potatoes. </div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Carbohydrates can help increase your lifespan and don't make you fat if consumed correctly</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>3. They’re not bad for your brain </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Recently, there has been some discussion around whether carbs cause brain inflammation, but the argument is untested. Whole grains are high in fibre and magnesium, which in fact decrease inflammation. The Mediterranean diet is notoriously high in whole grains, and has strong links to slower age-related illnesses and mental decline.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>4. They don’t make you fat, if consumed correctly</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Health advocates have typically pinned carbs as the key cause of obesity, because they allegedly spike insulin levels and therefore encourage fat storage. However, there is vast scientific evidence to disprove such theories. The argument also conflicts indigenous groups such as Thai and Taiwanese pre 20th century, who thrived on high-carb diets but remained very lean. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>5. They help your gut digest food</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The concept of good vs bad gut bacteria is another heavily discussed area in nutrition. Recent studies suggest carbohydrates help the ‘good’ bacteria - which aids digestion and helps fight disease - to grow. The soluble fibre found in carbohydrates is very nourishing for the stomach. </div>

Etiquette expert Liz Brewer revealed: "<strong>Don’t eat and drink at the same time</strong>, or swallow your food with liquid. Liquids will pass straight into the intestine and can inhibit digestion.</div>

"Make sure you have 30 bites to every mouthful. Digestion begins in the mouth and you can decrease your chance of bloating by simply chewing your food more thoroughly before swallowing."</div>

"<strong>Don’t talk with your mouthful</strong>. Not only is it rude, but it will also cause you to swallow more air leaving you feeling bloated."</div>

Liz added: "<strong>Make sure you pick the right food combinations</strong>. Cranberry sauce might taste good on your turkey, but fruit and meat is not a great idea. </div>

In bad news for spud-lovers, it seems the war against potatoes is still stewing. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
New research has revealed that the starchy vegetable may also lead to type 2 diabetes. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The study, from the Osaka Centre for Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Prevention, found that eating seven or more servings of spuds in a week raises the risk of diabetes by a whopping 33 per cent. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And dishearteningly, a moderate intake of two to four serves a week still ups the risk by seven per cent.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
French fries were reportedly the worst offender. Potatoes seemed to do less damage when in mashed, boiled and even baked form. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But it’s not all bad news for those who would rather not cut carbs. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Researchers also concluded that replacing three weekly servings of spuds with wholegrains - from rice, wheat, corn or quinoa - could in fact lower the risk of type 2 diabetes by a significant 12 per cent. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dr Isao Muraki, who authored the study, advised that potatoes should not be regarded as a key component of a healthful diet and instead a refined carbohydrate. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Speaking to HealthDay, Dr Muraki said: “Potatoes contain a large amount of starch and a relatively small amount of fibre, vitamins (and) minerals). </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“Lower quality and quantity of carbohydrate is associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes.” </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What’s more, spuds served hot are easily digestible and thus raise blood glucose levels faster. So it’s not looking good for the jacket potato. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The research was published in the journal Diabetes Care. </div>
