ABOUT PUTTING CHILDREN ON A POPULAR DIET. THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS IS SAYING KETO FOR KIDS COULD BE DANGEROUS. I HAVEN바카라 게임 웹사이트T EVEN HEARD ABOUT THAT. THERE YOU GO. SO I바카라 게임 웹사이트M GLAD YOU바카라 게임 웹사이트RE HERE. DR. TODD ELLERIN, THE VICE CHAIR OF MEDICINE AT SOUTH SHORE HEALTH. LET바카라 게임 웹사이트S TALK ABOUT IT. ALL RIGHT. DR. T TO BE HERE AS YOU KNOW, SOME ADULTS, SOME ADULTS USE THAT THE KETO DIET USE A HIGH FAT ALMOST NO CARB DIET TO LOSE WEIGHT AND REDUCE THEIR RISK FOR DIABETES. BUT IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S CONTROVERSIAL. SO WHAT ARE SOME OF THE CONCERNS FOR ADULTS? LET바카라 게임 웹사이트S START THERE RIGHT. WELL, EDDIE, YOU바카라 게임 웹사이트RE RIGHT. THERE ARE SOME BENEFITS TO THIS. YOU CAN HAVE WEIGHT LOSS SOMETIMES THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S SOME ADVANTAGES TO WITH YOUR SUGAR METABOLISM. BUT HERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S THE PROBLEM. FIRST OF ALL, THERE AREN바카라 게임 웹사이트T STUDIES THAT HAVE LOOKED AT LONG TERM IN ADULTS AND ALSO WITH CHILDREN. AND THE OTHER PROBLEM IS TOLERABILITY. WHEN YOU바카라 게임 웹사이트RE IN A STATE OF LOW CARBOHYDRATES, WHAT WE CALL POTENTIAL KETOSIS, YOU REALLY CAN FEEL HEADACHES AND FATIGUE. YOU CAN BE IRRITABLE, YOU KNOW, AND THESE TYPE OF THINGS DO MAKE IT CHALLENGING TO STAY ON THAT. AND REMEMBER, CARBOHYDRATES ARE THE BASIC ENERGY CURRENCY THAT WE USE IN OUR EVERYDAY LIFE. SO LET바카라 게임 웹사이트S TALK ABOUT THE KIDS. WHY DOES THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICIANS THINK THAT THESE KETO DIETS COULD BE EVEN MORE RISKY? WELL, MARIA, YOU KNOW, IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S A VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION. AND REMEMBER, OUR KIDS AREN바카라 게임 웹사이트T JUST LITTLE ADULTS. REMEMBER, NUMBER ONE, WHAT HAS BEEN SHOWN IS IF YOU RESTRICT CARBOHYDRATE RATES TOO MUCH, YOU CAN ACTUALLY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH GROWTH. SO, YOU KNOW, WE바카라 게임 웹사이트RE KIDS. YOU WANT THEM TO GROW NORMALLY. THAT바카라 게임 웹사이트S NUMBER ONE. ANOTHER POINT IS THAT THEY CAN HAVE NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES, EASY THINGS. THEIR B VITAMINS, FOR EXAMPLE. A LOT OF THAT COME FROM CARBOHYDRATES. AND THE LAST POINT IS FIBER AS WELL. A LOT OF THE GOOD CARBOHYDRATE THAT바카라 게임 웹사이트S FIBER CAN KEEP YOU REGULAR. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S IMPORTANT FOR GUT HEALTH AND OTHERS. IT CAN ALSO HELP WITH SUGAR METABOLISM. I WANT TO SAY ONE MORE THING. CARBON HYDRATES ARE NOT ONE ENTITY. THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S GOOD CARBOHYDRATES LIKE WHOLE GRAINS, YOU KNOW, THINGS LIKE BROWN RICE, THINGS LIKE LEGUMES, WHICH ARE BEANS ARE VERY IMPORTANT. AND THEN THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S THE BAD CARBOHYDRATES, WHICH YOU CAN IMAGINE THE THINGS LIKE LIKE WHITE BREAD. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, SUGARY DRINKS, PROCESSED FOODS LIKE COOKIES AND CHIPS. THOSE ARE THE THINGS WE WANT TO DE-EMPHASIZE. EMPHASIZE THE HEALTHIER CARBS. AND DR. TIM, WE KNOW THAT CHILDHOOD OBESITY AND DIABETES AS WELL, IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S A GROWING THREAT FOR KIDS. SO WHAT KIND OF FOOD PLAN DOES THAT? DOES THE ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICIANS RECOMMEND INSTEAD? LET바카라 게임 웹사이트S TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY RECOMMEND. RIGHT. FIRST OF ALL, WHAT THEY DON바카라 게임 웹사이트T RECOMMEND IS COMPLETELY RESTRICTING CARBOHYDRATE. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S THEY바카라 게임 웹사이트RE SAYING YOU HAVE TO HAVE AT LEAST 26% OF YOUR CALORIES SHOULD BE COMING FROM CARBOHYDRATES. THEY EMPHASIZE THE GOOD CARBOHYDRATES, NOT THE BAD ONES. LIKE I MENTIONED BEFORE. WHAT THEY바카라 게임 웹사이트RE REALLY SAYING ULTIMATELY IS THINK ABOUT A MEDITERRANEAN DIET. NOW, WHAT IS MEDITERRANEAN DIET? EMPHASIZE IT EMPHASIZES LEAN PROTEINS LIKE SEA FOODS, LESS RED MEAT. IT EMPHASIZES THINGS LIKE NUTS AND SOME OF THOSE HEALTHIER CARBOHYDRATES, AS WELL AS HEALTHY FATS AS WELL. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S, I바카라 게임 웹사이트D SAY MEDITERRANEAN IS MORE OF A BALANCED DIET. IN ESSENCE, THEY DO SAY THAT IN SOME KIDS WITH DIABETES, SOME RESTRICTION OF CARBOHYDRATES TO A MODERATE LEVEL IS OKAY. BUT REMEMBER, YOU ALWAYS WANT TO DO THIS IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR PEDIATRICIAN OR OR OR DIABETIC TEAM. SO IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S CHALLENGING AND NUANCED. YEAH, THAT바카라 게임 웹사이트S GREAT ADVICE. BUT I COULD NEVER GET MY KIDS TO EAT FISH. NO WAY. OH, REALLY? NO WAY. WE ATE A MEDITERRANEAN. EDDIE, DON바카라 게임 웹사이트T GIVE UP. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S NOT TOO LATE. SMART MAN.
Scientists find low-calorie keto diet slows aging바카라 게임 웹사이트but is it really good for you?

Obesity has been thoroughly linked to a higher epigenetic age (drivers of modifications to DNA that may lead to chronic illness and, ultimately, a shorter lifespan). A new study found that a very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) may both aid in weight loss and reverse the epigenetic age of participants with obesity by six years바카라 게임 웹사이트while also lowering their risk of conditions like type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. But experts have mixed feelings on the restrictive diet. The study, conducted in Spain and published in Nutrients, compared two groups바카라 게임 웹사이트those with obesity and those with a 바카라 게임 웹사이트normal바카라 게임 웹사이트 weight. Researchers measured biological age with epigenetic clocks (devices that use blood samples to analyze DNA) at the study바카라 게임 웹사이트s starting point, after 30 days, and again after 180 days. For at least the first 30 days, the group with obesity followed a VLCKD of 600 to 800 calories structured after the medically monitored commercial weight loss program called the PronoKal Method. By the end of the 180 days, there was an unspecified progressive reintroduction of food and increased calories. (Typically, the method ends with a low-calorie diet of 800 to 1500 calories per day.) The VLCKD phase helped participants accomplish ketosis, which is the metabolic process triggered by a low-carb diet that encourages the body to burn fat for energy instead of carbohydrates. Such a process is thought to be at least partially responsible for the study바카라 게임 웹사이트s results. Even so, it바카라 게임 웹사이트s important to note that a VLCKD is not enough calories to sustain life for the average person and is not recommended. In fact, experts warn against it. 바카라 게임 웹사이트In my experience, patients are not able to stay on a low-calorie ketogenic diet for an extended period of time,바카라 게임 웹사이트 says Meghan Garcia-Webb, M.D., a physician triple board-certified in internal medicine, lifestyle medicine, and obesity medicine. 바카라 게임 웹사이트It can set them up for another cycle of yo-yo dieting, and in general, I don바카라 게임 웹사이트t recommend it.바카라 게임 웹사이트 What about the diet helped slow down aging, exactly?The study suggests that a number of factors could have contributed to the reversal of epigenetic age in obese participants. Firstly, it appears that ketosis played a significant role, which 바카라 게임 웹사이트underscores the diet바카라 게임 웹사이트s potential role in promoting overall health and longevity,바카라 게임 웹사이트 says Trista Best, M.P.H., R.D., L.D., a registered dietitian at The Canada Diet. Researchers also noted that levels of beta-hydroxybutyrate, a byproduct of ketosis, may have also contributed to the changes, as it has been found to boost antioxidant capacity, improve insulin sensitivity, protect brain health, and more. Decreased body mass index due to weight loss also may have played a part, as may have an improved gut microbiome, the study reported. Limitations to the study바카라 게임 웹사이트s findings Dr. Garcia-Webb points out that the study was quite small and 바카라 게임 웹사이트findings are limited and do not assert direct causation or generalizability to a broader population.바카라 게임 웹사이트 Even so, she finds the results 바카라 게임 웹사이트interesting바카라 게임 웹사이트 because, compared to studies that look at the epigenetic aging process after bariatric weight loss surgery, a VLCKD achieved a greater slowdown in aging, 바카라 게임 웹사이트which suggests the effect may be more linked to the nutritional ketosis and diet as opposed to just the weight loss itself.바카라 게임 웹사이트Best adds that 바카라 게임 웹사이트it바카라 게임 웹사이트s essential to approach these findings with caution, considering individual variability and the need for personalized dietary interventions.바카라 게임 웹사이트 Plus, the extreme dietary restrictions associated with the diet can be detrimental to some, and study participants were monitored.All participants were European caucasians. People with pregnancy, substance abuse, or chronic medication use (except for anti-diabetic therapy) were excluded. It바카라 게임 웹사이트s unclear if participants remained on a low-calorie diet after research concluded, or if they gained back any weight.Dangers of a very low-calorie keto dietHaving between 600 and 800 calories is about as extreme as low-calorie diets get, which poses risk of not meeting nutrient needs (keto seriously cuts back on the entire food category of carbohydrates, after all), muscle loss, mental fog, and gallstones, according to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Keto side effects also may include keto flu (short-term flu-like symptoms linked to those starting a keto diet), constipation, diarrhea, dehydration, fatigue, and kidney and heart health challenges.바카라 게임 웹사이트Any dietary change patients make, I want them to be able to continue doing for decades,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Dr. Garcia-Webb adds. 바카라 게임 웹사이트If someone can바카라 게임 웹사이트t see themselves doing a low-calorie ketogenic diet when they are 80, then I wouldn바카라 게임 웹사이트t advise starting now.바카라 게임 웹사이트 She adds that long-term keto eating also significantly increases the risk of high cholesterol if patients eat a lot of animal-based saturated fats. And again, such restrictive eating is not ideal.In other words, there are different ways to lose weight and become healthier that don바카라 게임 웹사이트t run the same risks as the diet followed in this study. 바카라 게임 웹사이트People can achieve a healthier body with less extreme measures that provide a more enjoyable, sustainable quality of life,바카라 게임 웹사이트 Dr. Garcia-Webb concludes. 바카라 게임 웹사이트There바카라 게임 웹사이트s less utility to living longer if people are miserable.바카라 게임 웹사이트
