Dr Stuart Farrimond for his expert comment on how the energy drink affects your system. Speaking about the overall effect of energy drinks on the body, Dr Farrimond told FEMAIL: 'Energy drinks are a bad way to get caffeine.'They are high in sugar - some frighteningly so. The 'added extras', like taurine, are hocus- pocus and don't really do anything other than make the drink more marketable. In the first ten minutes your blood pressure and heart rate start to rise. Between the next 1. Red Bull has a p. H of 3. 3 - the same as vinegar. Combined with sugar, they are perfect for eroding the enamel on teeth, and causing a lifetime of dental problems.'Moderate coffee consumption has been linked to longer life, although this is almost certainly not the case for energy drinks. In fact, some research shows that caffeine actually impairs our ability to think creatively.'Coffee and tea are a far better way to go.

At some point during the first 1. This is when it's recommended to drink one if you are driving and feel you need to be more alert. Dr Farrimond said: 'These times are about right: after drinking a caffeinated drink, caffeine passes from the intestines into the blood and then into the brain and around the body.'It is a stimulant drug that works by clogging up the 'tiredness signals' in the brain. A chemical in the brain, called adenosine, plays an important role in how tired we feel - it tends to build up throughout the day, causing us to get sleepy in the evening. Caffeine is a crafty drug that temporarily blocks adenosine pathways, giving you a boost while allowing 'feel good' molecules in the brain (such as dopamine) to be released more readily. You feel more alert and you feel better about yourself!'> 3. After you finish your drink and your body has now fully absorbed the caffeine , your liver will often then react by absorbing more sugar. It's during this time that your body has also absorbed most of the sugar initially in the drink as well. By 5. 0 minutes your body has fully absorbed the caffeine but your liver also starts taking in more sugar. When the one- hour mark hit you will experience a sugar crash. Dr Farrimond said: 'Yes, ordinarily you would expect all the caffeine to be absorbed by about 4. It's not as straightforward as the infographic suggests, however. Interestingly, caffeine seems to be good for the liver and coffee consumption has been linked to lower rates of liver disease and liver cancer. The same hasn't been shown for energy drinks, however.'> 6. An hour in and you'll likely be getting the dreaded 'sugar crash' , this often is a mix of the sugar levels in your bloodstream dropping as well as the effects of the caffeine dying down. Dr Farrimond said: 'Lots of scientists don't think the 'sugar crash' actually exists. We think we know when our sugar levels are high or low, but we usually can't. We can also feel a bit of a slump when the 'happy hormones' circulating in our brain start to wear off.'In the next five to six hours your body reduces the content of caffeine in the bloodstream by half. Five to six hours: Roughly five to six hours is the half- life of caffeine. This means that it takes this many hours for your body to reduce the caffeine content in your bloodstream by 5. For women who take an oral contraceptive this time is doubled. INGREDIENTS EXPLAINED: Guarana: A plant native to South America, contains ingredients chemically similar to caffeine that act in the body much as caffeine does. Glucuronolactone: Occurs naturally in the body and some people believe it provides an immediate kick of energy and purges the body of harmful substances. Taurine: Occurs naturally in the body, some people believe it detoxifies the body and purges harmful substances. Dr Farrimond said: This is accurate for normal weight adults. The oral contraceptive pill will make the half- life longer, although it may not be double as it depends on the precise tablet.'Pregnancy, liver damage and other drugs can also slow the rate at which caffeine is eliminated from the body. This is why caffeinated drinks can cause behavioural problems and anxiety issues in children.'> 1. Dr Farrimond said: 'Yes, this is a fair approximation, excluding children and teenagers. Everyone's different, of course, but a lot of the 'withdrawal' symptoms seems to be in our mind.'You will start to feel withdrawal symptoms including headaches, irritability and constipation between 1. Your body needs seven to 1. Seven to 1. 2 days: Dtudies have shown that this is the time frame that your body will become tolerant of your daily caffeine dosage, one study found those who took a caffeine pill while others had a placebo, showed identical moods, alert levels and energy after 1. Dr Farrimond said: 'We do become tolerant of caffeine over time - needing more to get the same effect. The graphic then goes on to explain why it might be good or bad to drink energy drinks. It states that most things in moderation and as part of a healthy balanced diet are fine and this goes for energy drinks, be careful though as there are often large amounts of sugar in many of the drinks. Guidelines for caffeine are 4. There has been research all over the world into the effects of energy drinks, in America, admissions to emergency departments which were energy drink related doubled from 2. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's Dawn Report. Energy drink companies often compare their drinks to coffee with many coffee shops offering high caffeine drinks, take a Starbucks Venti Caffe Americano which contains 3. Redbull. Dr Stuart said: 'Tiredness is a big killer: about 5. In moderation, caffeine can help you stay awake if you are driving late at night or in the afternoon slump after lunch. Niraj Naik who designed the Coca- Cola and Diet Coke graphics for his blog The Renegade Pharmacist told FEMAIL: ' My original infographic and article was meant for my clients who suffer from health issues and for others who are on long term medications for metabolic disease like diabetes, heart disease and obesity, who really want to get better or prevent them from happening.'However people who have a healthy, active lifestyle and who manage their stress properly, are at a much lower risk of getting stress related illnesses. It is when it is drunk in excess and in replacement of other more nutritious drinks or food that you get problems. My advice to my clients and everyone else is to learn to live a healthy lifestyle, stay active, manage your stress, have a nutritious pure diet as much as possible and view things like fizzy drinks and energy drinks as treats - not to be had with every single meal.'Gavin Partington, BSDA (British Soft Drinks Association) Director General, told FEMAIL: 'Energy drinks deliver a caffeine or glucose- based energy boost and are enjoyed by millions worldwide. In fact, this year the European Food Safety Authority reaffirmed the safety of energy drinks and their ingredients. It's worth remembering that a 2. SHOULD YOU BE REACHING FOR THAT ENERGY DRINK? She told FEMAIL 'Many people rely on energy drinks in order to get them through the day, a night shift, a heavy party or a sports event. Our lives are so busy, our diets are nutrient poor, and we are sleeping less. All of this can mean we are not allowing our bodies to function properly, and end up relying on energy drinks. We are pushing our bodies beyond their natural capability, pretending like we are some kind of super humans who don't need to rest and nourish our bodies. Continually relying on energy drinks to get us through the day means we are just storing up problems for later where we will likely crash. So what happens to our body when we drink an energy drink? Our liver has to work hard for 1. Meanwhile it is giving less attention to removing other toxins with in our body which may lead to other illnesses. The caffeine causes us to switch off from our bodies many cries for rest and nutrition, depriving it of its basic needs. Caffeine is addictive meaning that the more you drink, the more you crave, and the further you are pushing your body out of balance. The raised blood pressure from the caffeine puts strain on your heart, blood vessels and kidneys increasing your chances of cardiovascular and renal conditions. The sugar is raising your blood glucose levels, causing your pancreas to release insulin. Constantly causing our pancreas to release insulin in response to glucose can increasing your chances of developing diabetes type 2. It also causes us to store fat around your middle. After the caffeine has worn off, you are likely to be feeling tired and may experience low moods. This constant yo- yoing of energy and sugar does not lead to productive and sustained work, exercise, or whatever you are using the energy drink for. You very soon will find yourself reaching for another energy drink, starting the process of hiding your body's cries for rest and nutrition all over again.'. What's the Deal With Organic American Spirit Cigarettes? About two years ago, I started spending a good amount of time at these underground, vaguely illegal dance parties. Despite the fact that the bouncers diligently enforce an over- 2. I’m guessing because they don’t want people congregating outside the party door and blowing their cover. I can pretty much deal with the fact that when I get home, my hair and clothes reek of cigarette smoke. That’s the price I pay for getting to dance all night and drink $4 beers. And in a warehouse, it’s not so bad, with high ceilings that lets the smoke to dissipate. But the worst are the people who drunkenly smoke on the dance floor, waving their cigarettes around, blowing smoke in your face and burning you. Then they get self- righteous about it when you point out that your sweater has a cigarette shaped hole in it now, thanks to them. At this point, I would honestly prefer that you smoke a crack pipe on the dance floor. If you blew lines of coke on the table next to me, I would turn away, because it really has nothing to do with me. But when you light up a cigarette, you have to understand that you have just become everyone around you’s problem. The reason why they are glaring at you and covering their mouth is because you’ve given them no choice but to be a part of your decision. You can say, “It’s none of your business,” but really, it is, the way a belligerently drunk person is everyone’s business. I’m bored with the people congregated outside a bar near my apartment, that I have to walk through a haze every time I go by. And the people who smoke in the park when I’m trying to get a much- needed taste of fresh air. The people who reek so badly, they leave a trail of stale smoke in the elevator behind them. And the people who smoke as they walk down the sidewalk. Just hold up a middle finger to everyone behind you, please. Smoking is over. It’s an incomprehensible bad habit that makes everyone around you (except for other smokers) annoyed. It smells bad. It makes your apartment repulsive. It makes you a chore to kiss. And it has increasingly become correlated with lower income and lower levels of education. Only freshman college students think it’s cool. Only French and Italian people think it’s normal. And it’s only admirable for the rare badass souls over 7. What really sucks is that I have friends–all party people–who smoke. In every other way, they are authentic, smart, and kind people. They just do this one thing that makes me not want to be around them. I just awkwardly pretend I don’t see it and wander away, because I’m sure they know it sucks. Then I let it go and we shall never speak of it again.) It’s sort of like having a friend who has terrible taste in men. You love them anyway, but it’s a struggle to keep your mouth shut. At least with your friend who is dating the misogynist pig, you don’t come away from hanging out with them reeking of bad choices, one step closer to getting lung cancer. And I’ve noticed something: people who live in Brooklyn and who like the idea of buying organic, locally- made artisan food, like smoking American Spirit cigarettes. This confused me, so I decided to do some investigating. Health Nuts Love American Spirits. It’s not just people I know in the scene that smoke American Spirit, which come packaged in colors reminiscent of a kid- friendly dime store from the 5. American Indian smoking a pipe on the front. It’s been spotted clutched in the manicured paws of such It Girls as Chloe Sevigny, Alexa Chung, Alyssa Milano, Kate Hudson, and Kirstin Dunst. Katherine Heigl, from what I can tell, is an especially heavy and ardent smoker of the Spirit. Gwyneth Paltrow, lover of all things farcically healthy and organic and natural and overpriced, admitted to Harper’s Bazaar that she smokes once a week, and her cigarette of choice is American Spirit. American Spirit used to set up an air conditioned tent and hand out free packs at Coachella, before giving out free cigarettes was banned. A 1. 99. 7 report described American Spirit smokers as artists or activists, who read “hippie and intelligent/successful” magazines like the New Yorker or The Atlantic, and were likely to “hang out in Greenwich Village at a non- trendy bar” or “have friends over for dinner and drink microbrews.” That was in 1. Greenwich with Williamsburg, and you get the point. It’s telling that my boyfriend, who lives in Williamsburg, gets American Spirit direct mail once or twice a year. I, who have lived in Gramercy for three years, have never received a mailing. A Chicago Tribune article from the same year said that health food stores were carrying American Spirit. A shop owner on San Francisco’s Haight Street said he has a customer who no longer spit up blood after switching to American Spirit. Heartwarming. Of course, that was back in the 9. A vegan blogger wrote this past December, “I see how strange it is that I espouse a healthy vegan lifestyle yet I smoke cigarettes. I tell myself that I’m AT LEAST smoking American Spirits so I’m not inhaling as many chemicals (ha), but in truth, I know what I’m doing is hurting me in the long run. And in the short run.”American Spirit packs were included in the “hipster traps” set around Brooklyn a few years back. And as one store clerk put it: People who buy American Spirits fall into one of two categories: One, the kind of people who think that because American Spirits are, and I quote, “1. Two, the kind of people who think that because American Spirit is “natural”, and it has a pipe- smoking American Indian as a mascot, it’s, like, totally less destructive on the environment, man! American Spirit cares about the earth, and poor small- time tobacco farmers! When you get this many people who love craft brews and pickling smoking cigarettes, you end up getting reviews like this: “The taste is unprecedented. The flavor is loudly bold for a light cigarette, but I see that as a plus because they do maintain a light yet balanced drag. One of my favorite things is how when I smoke these, I feel the urge to smoke less, not just because they’re American Spirits, a cigarette done right, but I even crave these less ! These cancer sticks give me the case of the runs. I think that reviewer might just be a crackhead. Ben & Jerry’s for Smokers. Why this slavish, if a bit conflicted, devotion? Well, anyone who smokes them will point to the fact that American Spirit cigarettes are free of the long list of disgusting additives present in conventional cigarette brands. And because they don’t have all those additives, they are also vegan. They have two organic versions: full- bodied and mellow, which leads many uninformed consumers to delude themselves into thinking they are safer. They donate money to causes like restoring the Sante Fe River in New Mexico and Keep America Beautiful. They’ve teemed up with Terracycle to allow consumers to send in cigarette butts for recycling. Probably not, since you get just $1 for every 1,0. They extend benefits to their employees’ same- sex domestic partners. And while they are not actually affiliated with Indians, they like to say that the cigarettes are, “based on our belief in the traditional American Indian usage of tobacco—in moderation and in its natural state.”Like organic food, organic tobacco is a growth market where consumers are willing to pay a premium, about twice as much for the tobacco itself. Since 1. 98. 5, Santa Fe Natural Tobacco Company, American Spirit’s parent company, has advertised in publications like Mother Earth News and Whole Earth Review and still advertises in liberal publications such as Mother Jones and The Nation as well as more mainstream magazines like Elle, Lucky and Marie Claire. In their early ads, American Spirit was first touted as the cigarette for people who “smoke out of choice rather than habit.” Though at this stage, who would smoke out of choice, especially if they are the kind of person who likes their shampoo paraben free?(Related: Do e- cigs contribute to deforestation?)It seems that American Spirit is for those who smoke out of habit, but find it easier to justify the habit rather than actually just quit. The Bad News. There are a few tar stains on Natural American Spirit’s otherwise pristine reputation. For one, it’s no longer a scrappy, independently owned company. It is owned by R. J. Reynolds, the world’s second largest tobacco company behind Philip Morris, and owner of Camel, Winston, Salem, Kool, Pall Mall and other very un- cool and un- indie brands associated more with West Virginia than San Francisco. There’s also the problem of cigarette butts. They look compostable, but all of them have non- biodegradeable filters inside, which get washed out to sea where marine life eats and chokes on them. Cigarette butts account for one quarter or more of litter, and are the most common debris collected from beaches and inland waterways during Ocean Conservancy’s annual International Coastal Cleanup. A recent study showed that cigarette waste is toxic enough with heavy metals to be labelled by city and state agents as “toxic waste.” I wonder if American Spirit smokers are more likely than other smokers to toss their butts out in an approved receptacle? And there’s the whole cancer aspect. You can still get cancer from organic tobacco. It’s not the additives, though those don’t help, but the smoke itself from the combustion of the tobacco leaf that you inhale into your lungs. When smoking an organic American Spirit, you will inhale carbon monoxide, particulate matter, carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and toxic nitrosamines. In Germany, where they actually regulate stuff that causes cancer, ads for “organic” cigarettes have been banned because of fears that they they mislead consumers into thinking they’re a healthier product. Which they do. Here in the U. S., ads for organic cigarettes aren’t banned, but after a 1. ![]() Low- Carb Diets & Coronary Blood Flow. Below is an approximation of this video’s audio content.

People going on low- carb diets may not see a rise in their cholesterol levels. How is that possible? ![]() ![]() Because weight loss by any means can drop our cholesterol. We could go on an all- Twinkie diet and lower our cholesterol if we were unable to eat the dozen daily Twinkies necessary to maintain our weight. That’s why a good cocaine habit can lower cholesterol. Chemotherapy can drop cholesterol like a rock. Tuberculosis can work wonders on one’s waistline.
![]() Anything that drops our weight can drop our cholesterol. But, the goal isn’t to fit into a skinnier casket. The reason we care about cardiovascular risk factors like cholesterol is because we care about cardiovascular risk—the health of our arteries. Well, now we have studies that have measured the impact of low- carb diets on arteries directly, and a review of all the best studies done to date found that low- carb diets impair arterial function, as evidenced by a decrease in flow- mediated dilation—meaning low- carb diets effectively cripple people’s arteries. And, since the meta- analysis was published, another study found the same thing. A dietary pattern characterized by high protein and fat, low carbohydrate, was “associated with poorer peripheral small artery function”—again measuring blood flow into people’s limbs. Peripheral circulation is great, but what about circulation in the coronary arteries that feed our heart? There’s only been one study ever done measuring actual blood flow to the heart muscles of people eating low- carb diets, and this is it. Richard Fleming, an accomplished nuclear cardiologist, enrolled 2. SPECT scans—enabling him to actually directly measure the blood flow within the coronary arteries. He then put them all on a healthy vegetarian diet, and a year later, the scans were repeated. By that time, however, ten of the patients had jumped ship onto the low- carb bandwagon. At first, I bet he was upset, but surely soon realized he had an unparalleled research opportunity dropped into his lap. Here, he had extensive imaging on ten people following a low- carb diet, and 1. What would their hearts look like at the end of the year? We can talk about risk factors all we want, but compared to the veg group, did the coronary heart disease of the patients following the Atkins- like diets improve, worsen, or stay the same? Those sticking to the vegetarian diet showed a reversal of their heart disease, as expected. Their partially clogged arteries literally got cleaned out. They had 2. 0% less atherosclerotic plaque in their arteries at the end of the year than at the beginning. What happened to those who abandoned the treatment diet, and switched over to the low- carb diet? Their condition significantly worsened. Thanks to the kind generosity of Dr. Fleming, we can actually see the changes in blood flow for ourselves. Here are some representative heart scans. The yellow, and particularly red, represent blood flow through the coronary arteries to the heart muscle. This patient went on a plant- based diet, and their coronary arteries opened right up, increasing blood flow. This person, however, started out with good flow, but after a year on a low- carb diet, significantly clogged down their arterial blood flow. This is the best science to date demonstrating the threat of low- carb diets, not just measuring risk factors, but actual blood flow in people’s hearts on different diets. Of course, the reason we care about cardiac blood flow is we don’t want to die. And, a meta- analysis was recently published that finally went ahead and measured the ultimate endpoint, death, and “low- . Alzheimer's prevention: Diets, exercise and drug studies offer hope Ann Poehler’s strides quicken on the treadmill. Her feet pound. Her heart races from 1. A plastic tube jutting from the Prairie Village woman’s mouth feeds carbon dioxide levels to a computer here inside the University of Kansas Alzheimer’s Disease Center. The computer records every respiration while an exercise physiologist coaches her to push harder.“Can you hang in there like for 1. United States, just behind cancer. She watched Alzheimer’s rob her grandmother of her memory and life. Now her mother is in a memory care unit. Like millions of aging Americans, Poehler hopes to escape the cataclysm of the brain- wasting disease that now afflicts some 5. U. S., a number that only promises to grow as baby boomers age, if a cure or preventive is not found. A national study, published online Monday in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine, offered positive signs on what has long been a bleak landscape. It showed that the rate of dementia in people 6. The fact remains that one out of every three people over age 8. U. S. It’s in my family. So I would love for this study, or the studies that are going on right now, to affect my life. That would be the best.”Researchers at the KU Alzheimer’s Disease Center think so, too. Over the past five years, the center at 4. Shawnee Mission Parkway in Fairway has established itself as one of the top research centers in the nation dedicated to attacking Alzheimer’s disease. In 2. 01. 1, the National Institute on Aging, part of the National Institutes of Health, awarded the KU center $6 million over five years for research. Last month, the center won an additional $8. The National Institutes of Health has designated it one of 3. Alzheimer’s. Each center has its own Alzheimer’s research mission. At KU, the focus is on prevention — stalling or stopping the disease by looking precisely into how exercise, experimental medications and diet (including a low- carb Mediterranean diet heavy on fish, nuts and olive oil) may boost the body’s metabolism to combat or protect against the disease. No one has found a single cause or cure for Alzheimer’s. Only two classes of drugs even exist to stall some symptoms, with the most recent drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration 1. But strides are being made on every front. Research at KU has so expanded since 2. Alzheimer’s studies — that the center is now actively looking to enroll 7. Alzheimer’s, as well as those with some impairment) to be part of studies on exercise, diet and medication over the next three to five years. Fourteen studies are now underway, with more coming. In October, the Washington- based Global Alzheimer’s Platform Foundation — tasked with increasing the nation’s pool of study volunteers, thus hastening therapies to market — announced the formation of “K. C. Memory Strings Alliance” among local physicians’ groups, large area employers and others to help point volunteers toward studies. But it is a hopeful time,” said physician and researcher Jeffrey Burns, who co- directs the center and its studies with director, physician and researcher Russell Swerdlow. He coached basketball, too.“Jeff Burns was a student of mine,” Royer, 6. Alzheimer’s physician, whom Royer also coached as a player. Now it’s one of Burns’ studies putting Royer through his paces. Like Poehler, Royer is part of a study called APEX, Alzheimer’s Prevention Through Exercise. Also like Poehler, he is cognitively normal, with no memory problems or any other impairments. But his family has a history of Alzheimer’s.“I have my grandfather and my mother,” Royer said. His grandfather died of the disease in his 9. Royer’s mother, Jill Peck Royer, now 9. Royer first noticed it when he took his mother, a member of the Pi Beta Phi sorority at KU, to a university in Michigan for the celebration of a chapter she helped start there some 5. It was apparent she was slipping,” Royer said. She had a very impressive intellect, an incredible vocabulary.”Some six months ago, there were danger signs, Royer said, including the day she put a pot of water on the stove, forgot it was there and allowed it to boil dry. She now lives in a memory care unit in her hometown of Abilene, Kan. Although neither Royer nor Poehler is cognitively impaired, each received a free PET scan — positive emission tomography — to search for clues to Alzheimer’s as part of their initial work- up for the exercise study. In the past, Alzheimer’s could be diagnosed only at death through an autopsy. But within the last three years, PET brain scans have become available at major Alzheimer’s centers. The scans are extremely expensive, costing about $5,0. Neither Medicare nor insurance pays for them, although a national study, known as the i. DEAS study, was recently launched at centers including KU to assess whether Medicare should pick up the cost. For Royer and Poehler, the brain scans clearly showed low- level deposits of beta- amyloid protein plaques, one of the two main hallmarks of the disease. The condition is named for German psychiatrist Alois Alzheimer, who made his mark on history in 1. He also found tangles of what are now known as tau (rhymes with “now”) protein. Plaque deposits, which build up in the spaces between cells, and tangles, which clog the inside of cells, are thought to be the main culprits behind the brain cell death that leads to Alzheimer’s calamitous effects. A vital note, however, is that just because people have plaques and tangles doesn’t mean they absolutely will develop clinical Alzheimer’s. Right now, about one out of every three people over age 6. Higher levels put individuals at higher risk. But it is not at all clear if they will be hit by the disease’s memory loss or dementia. At KU, Burns pulled up several scans with glowing yellow areas that showed the brains to be swathed in the clogging protein. Yet the patients were cognitively normal. Why do some people with plaques and tangles get Alzheimer’s and others do not? It could have much to do with the amount or concentration of plaques and tangles, how much they expand, the rate at which they expand or the parts of the brain they affect. Researchers now think that for people who eventually develop Alzheimer’s, deposits of amyloid plaque may begin to build up as early as 1. The point of the APEX study is to assess whether regular and moderately intense aerobic exercise can slow the development of plaques and tangles and perhaps stall the disease. Four times each week, Royer drives to the YMCA in Olathe. He puts on a heart monitor and steps onto the treadmill. There, he exercises, as the study demands, for 3. He will do this for a year, raising the goal for his breathing and heart rate as he goes.“I don’t think I’m doing it for me,” Royer said after he ended his workout. Studies have shown that the more fit people are, the greater their aerobic capacity, the less brain shrinkage they have. APEX will chart the differences in the accumulation of brain amyloid in those who exercise regularly and those who do not.“We think exercise might actually modify the disease process,” Burns said. Knowing precisely how exercise affects a healthy brain will help determine ways to keep brains healthy. KU researchers will work with Alzheimer’s researchers at Northeastern University, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Illinois to use brain images, plaque scans, blood work and a battery of physical and psychosocial tests to measure individuals in three groups: volunteers who exercise with moderate intensity for 1. Our advice we boil down to this,” Burns said. And we’re working hard to prove it.”Mediterranean diet That a healthy diet leads to a healthy heart is uncontested. Whether there is a precise type of diet that protects against Alzheimer’s dementia, however, is far less clear. Different studies offer differing evidence. Most studies, and most Alzheimer’s experts, agree that smoking is a risk factor for dementia. So is diabetes. A 2. American Journal of Psychiatry concluded that people with diabetes who have the kind of mild cognitive impairment seen in the early stages of Alzheimer’s tend to be more likely to progress to full Alzheimer’s dementia than those without diabetes. Monday’s study in JAMA Internal Medicine calculated that diabetes increased the risk of dementia, for which Alzheimer’s is the greatest cause, by 3. After that, data can be confusing. For example, a variety of studies holds that people with midlife obesity are at greater risk for dementia. Yet a recent analysis that was published in 2. The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology, looking at data on some 2 million people over two decades, found exactly the opposite: Overweight and perhaps even obese people at midlife were at lower risk of dementia. Those who were underweight were at greater risk. The study published Monday again backs this up, showing that being overweight or obese was tied to a 3. Some studies show that high blood pressure is a risk factor; others have found that later- life hypertension may protect against cognitive decline. Same with high cholesterol. Some studies show it’s bad, others not so much. But so far, what’s broadly called the Mediterranean diet stands out.

Ways to Eat Healthy. Choose the right carbohydrates. Simple carbs, like raw sugar or corn syrup, are quickly absorbed by the body's digestive system. This causes a kind of carb overload, and your body releases huge amounts of insulin, to combat the overload. Eat these in moderation.

They include whole- grain flour, hearty vegetables, oats, and unprocessed grains, like brown rice. These foods are usually higher in vitamins and other nutrients that are beneficial for the body, and they are higher in fiber (which keeps your digestive system running smoothly).

Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in living organisms. It is generally considered a field of biology, but intersects frequently with. Studies of twins suggest that type 2 diabetes might be linked to genetics. These studies were complicated by the environmental influences that also affect type 2. The Blood Type Diet theory was popularized by naturopathic physician Peter D’Adamo after his study of genetics, medical history and anthropology. However, others in the medical community cite a lack of independent research to back his claims about a link between health and the compatibility of foods with each of the four major blood types. D’Adamo argues that the antigens that determine which blood type we have also affect how our bodies digest food proteins called lectins. He says eating the right foods can make you feel better, while eating the wrong foods can contribute to weight gain and a host of health problems. The foods that he says are best for each blood type are based on when that blood type evolved in human history and the types of foods being eaten by early man at that time. If you’re shopping for Type A meals, head to a farmer’s market or the produce section of your local grocery store. D’Adamo recommends a vegetarian- style diet for Type A’s because he says this blood type evolved during more settled, agrarian times in human history. A type- A grocery list would include plenty of fruits and vegetables that are “fresh, pure and organic” to suit a Type A’s more sensitive immune system. Grains, nuts and seeds are good, too. In addition, D’Adamo says Type A’s thrive on calming exercises, such as yoga and tai chi. When it comes to vegetables, garlic, onions, broccoli, carrots, collard greens, kale, pumpkin, spinach, artichokes, chicory, greens, okra, parsley, alfalfa sprouts, tempeh, tofu and turnips should be on the shopping list. Berries, plums, prunes, figs, pineapples, cherries, apricots, grapefruit and lemons are among the best fruits for Type A’s. The most beneficial grains are listed as amaranth and buckwheat. Peanuts and pumpkin seeds are on the most beneficial list, along with flaxseed and olive oils. The most beneficial seafood include carp, cod, grouper, red snapper, rainbow trout, salmon, sardines and whitefish. If you’re trying to follow the Blood Type Diet, D'Adamo also lists foods that are not beneficial for each of the blood types. If you have type- A blood, stay out of the meat and dairy sections of the store. These protein- rich foods are on the “avoid” list for Type A’s. Poultry and eggs should be avoided, too. Animal foods are said to slow the metabolism of people with type A blood. D’Adamo recommends that everyone avoid processed foods, regardless of blood type.
