Saturday, August 07, 2010 - Byron J Richards, CCNWhen your fasting blood sugar rises above 90 your body enters into a state of stress trying to deal with extra sugar. This is true long before blood sugar rises to the level of type 2 diabetes. The extra sugar in your circulation is a challenge for the health of your arteries, heart, liver, pancreas, kidneys, and eyes.

Thursday, August 05, 2010 - Byron J Richards, CCNA new study indicates that one major factor causing today’s obesity epidemic is the garbage fat diet of Americans for the past century. The Western diet is almost void of omega 3 essential fatty acids. Instead, high levels of omega 6 oils, such as corn oil and soy oil, have found their way into the food supply.

Wednesday, August 04, 2010 - Byron J Richards, CCNIn a rather sobering study scientists have demonstrated that a high-fat diet has the potential to drastically alter the architecture of the brain, resulting in poor circulation within the brain, down-regulated metabolism, and outright brain damage in areas of the brain central to appetite regulation. The implications of the study are that once a person starts eating too much and continues to do so for a period of time they are inducing actual brain damage that will be difficult to reverse – in turn locking in a poor state of metabolic health.
