Also, interestingly, saturated fats are found in the breast milk of mammals. This means, we’re being fed and sustained on saturated fats right from birth. If this is the case, could they really be so terrible for us later in life?

Comment on If you are seriously considering Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum by Karen

Karen — Sun, 06 Sep 2009 16:37:30 +0000

I purchased this game a few months ago, just tried it out this morning. MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT! The game stalls, the avatar is unresponsive and there is precious little info available in terms of troubleshooting on the Majesco website. I’ve reset the game a total of 6 times – of course losing all my information in the process – and the same thing happens over and over. It starts with the run although the avatar ambles. At the end of the time the avatar just stands there, the music keeps playing and the remote doesn’t register on the screen. (Yes, everything has fresh batteries and works on other games). Finally the avatar decided to move and took me to an exercise with tires. The avatar hovered over one tire, leg lifted like a dog peeing on the tire. Again, stalled. If frustration is a fitness exercise this game is it … otherwise it makes a good weigh scale but precious little else.

It is for common surgeries like Hernia, Prostate, Hyterectomy, Appendicectomy,Piles etc that people have to wait in queue in many countries. And for these common simple surgeries Midsize Private Hospitals – ‘Secondary” Hospitals like ours in Chennai, Dr U Mohan Rau Memorial Hospital are better than bigger and “tertiary” type of Hospitals. Visit: http://www.mohanraohospital.com where we get lot of enquiries and quite a few patients from overseas.

Comment on For Good Prostate Health and Lower Cholesterol Consider Beta-sitosterol by Stephen Guy-Clarke

Stephen Guy-Clarke — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 21:15:16 +0000

Plant Sterols are being utilised in many countries for their cholesterol lowering properties – these natural plant fats, which are structurally very similar to cholesterol, an animal steroid, reduce absorption by competing with cholesterol for space in the mixed micelles of fats that are absorbed in the gut mucosal cells.
Vegetarians naturally consume twice the average intake of plant sterols as these molecules are prevalent in pulses, peas, vegetables, nuts, seeds and vegetable oils – too little to affect cholesterol levels. Advances in food technology, however, have produced a variety of sterols that can be cheaply produced from wood and soya and added to refined foods – notably fats – to bring daily consumption up to an effective 1g a day level. These sterols have safety approvals from the European Union’s novel foods committee and the American FDA now allows products containing plant sterols to make label claims that they help reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.

Blood cholesterol levels, particularly LDL cholesterol, have been controlled by the use of sterols for over 50 years. Reductions of up to 13% in plasma LDL levels have been noted when sterols have been added to the diet.
There is concern that plant sterols may interfere with absorption of fat soluble vitamins but vitamin A, D and K uptake appears to be unaffected. Beta-carotene and vitamin E uptake may be marginally reduced but still within a normal range and a diet rich in carotenoids, found in spinach, carrots, peppers and in vitamin E, high in nuts, seeds and wholegrains, would counter any slight reductions in these fat-soluble nutrients.
