Book excerpt: The instant New York Times, USA Today, and Publisher's Weekly bestseller A bold new plant-based plan that challenges popular keto and paleo diets, from an award-winning gastroenterologist. The benefits of restrictive diets like paleo and keto have been touted for more than a decade, but as renowned gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or "Dr. B," illuminates in this groundbreaking book, the explosion of studies on the microbiome makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets are in fact hazardous to our health. What studies clearly now show--and what Dr. B preaches with his patients--is that gut health is the key to boosting our metabolism, balancing our hormones, and taming the inflammation that causes a host of diseases. And the scientifically proven way to fuel our guts is with dietary fiber from an abundant variety of colorful plants. Forget about the fiber your grandmother used to take--the cutting-edge science on fiber is incredibly exciting. As Dr. B explains, fiber energizes our gut microbes to create powerhouse postbiotics called short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that are essential to our health. SCFAs are scientifically proven to promote weight loss, repair leaky gut, strengthen the microbiome, optimize the immune system, reduce food sensitivities, lower cholesterol, reverse type 2 diabetes, improve brain function, and even prevent cancer. Restrictive fad diets starve the gut of the critical fiber we need, weaken the microbes, and make our system vulnerable. As a former junk-food junkie, Dr. B knows firsthand the power of fiber to dramatically transform our health. The good news is that our guts can be trained. Fiber-rich, real foods--with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, seeds, nuts, and legumes--start working quickly and maintain your long-term health, promote weight loss, and allow you to thrive and feel great from the inside out. With a 28-day jumpstart program with menus and more than 65 recipes, along with essential advice on food sensitivities, Fiber Fueled offers the blueprint to start turbocharging your gut for lifelong health today.

Book excerpt: The F-Factor Diet isn't new: Zuckerbrot, who has worked high-profile clients like Megyn Kelly and Katie Couric, and is the official dietitian to the Miss Universe Organization, per the Times, published her book, The F-factor Diet: Discover the Secret to Permanent Weight Loss, in 2006.The F-Factor Diet, in the broadest of terms, is a high-fiber diet for men and women (the "F" stands for fiber, according to the diet's website). The reasoning here, is that "fiber has zero calories-so you get to fill up, without filling out," the website says.First, a quick reminder about what fiber is: "There are two types of fiber," Shana Minei Spence, MS, RDN, a dietitian based in New York City, tells Health. "There's soluble fiber, [which] dissolves in water to form a gel-like material and is said to help lower blood cholesterol and glucose levels." Soluble fiber is found in oats, peas, beans, apples, citrus fruits, carrots, barley and psyllium. Then there's insoluble fiber, which promotes bowel movements and can bulk up your stool, Spence says. It's great for constipation or irregular stools, and can be found in whole-wheat flour, wheat bran, nuts, beans, and fibrous vegetables. Since your digestive system can't break down fiber into energy, it also helps make you feel full.The F-Factor Diet encourages followers to track fiber and net carbs, but also has recommendations for additional grams of fats you can have each day, as well as ounces of protein you should have at each meal, plus a snack. That equates to about 10 and 14 ounces of lean protein per day for women, about 90-126 grams-which is significantly above the amount recommended by the World Health Organization, which suggests 0.8 grams per kilogram of bodyweight (for a 150-pound woman, that's 55 grams a day).It's also important to note that, while the diet says it doesn't limit the number of a dieter's calories per day, the recommendations for other foods ultimately limits overall calorie intake, providing a built-in "calorie cap," according to the F-Factor book. Each step, outlined below, also has its own cap on calories.

Book excerpt: A hilarious and inspiring memoir about one young woman's journey to find a better path to both physical and mental health. At twenty-nine, Kelsey Miller had done it all: crash diets, healthy diets, and nutritionist-prescribed "eating plans," which are diets that you pay more money for. She'd been fighting her un-thin body since early childhood, and after a lifetime of failure, finally hit bottom. No diet could transform her body or her life. There was no shortcut to skinny salvation. She'd dug herself into this hole, and now it was time to climb out of it. With the help of an Intuitive Eating coach and fitness professionals, she learned how to eat based on her body's instincts and exercise sustainably, without obsessing over calories burned and thighs gapped. But, with each thrilling step toward a healthy future, she had to contend with the painful truths of her past. Big Girl chronicles Kelsey's journey into self-loathing and disordered eating-and out of it. This is a memoir for anyone who's dealt with a distorted body image, food issues, or a dysfunctional family. It's for the late-bloomers and the not-yet-bloomed. It's for everyone who's tried and failed and felt like a big, fat loser. So, basically, everyone.

Download or read book Front of Package Nutrition Rating Systems and Symbols written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-01-30 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade, tremendous growth has occurred in the use of nutrition symbols and rating systems designed to summarize key nutritional aspects and characteristics of food products. These symbols and the systems that underlie them have become known as front-of-package (FOP) nutrition rating systems and symbols, even though the symbols themselves can be found anywhere on the front of a food package or on a retail shelf tag. Though not regulated and inconsistent in format, content, and criteria, FOP systems and symbols have the potential to provide useful guidance to consumers as well as maximize effectiveness. As a result, Congress directed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to undertake a study with the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to examine and provide recommendations regarding FOP nutrition rating systems and symbols. The study was completed in two phases. Phase I focused primarily on the nutrition criteria underlying FOP systems. Phase II builds on the results of Phase I while focusing on aspects related to consumer understanding and behavior related to the development of a standardized FOP system. Front-of-Package Nutrition Rating Systems and Symbols focuses on Phase II of the study. The report addresses the potential benefits of a single, standardized front-label food guidance system regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, assesses which icons are most effective with consumer audiences, and considers the systems/icons that best promote health and how to maximize their use.

Download or read book F Factor Diet Unearth The Untold Way To Constant Weight Loss written by Christy Swan and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-20 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The surprisingly easy way to lose weight... and keep it off Tired of trying all sorts of diets without lasting success? Sick of struggling to keep up with restrictive regimens that you give up on after a few months? Want to eat healthier without depriving yourself of your favorite foods? While other weight-loss regimes usually have you omit certain food types from your diet--adding to your sense of deprivation--this one wants you to add to your diet. The F-Factor diet encourages consumption of foods that are high in fiber, together with lean protein and complex carbohydrates. Why fiber? Research shows that a high fiber diet is essential in lowering cholesterol, blood sugar, and weight. It's also shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers. It's estimated that 95% of Americans don't meet the recommended daily fiber intake -- imagine the health benefits you're missing out on by taking this important nutrient for granted. If you've been starving yourself and resorting to diets that require you stop eating your favorite foods, you should consider adding more fiber to your diet instead. With the F-Factor diet, you won't have to stop eating cakes and pasta completely. While there are food recommendations in this diet, you will still get to enjoy the foods you love. Plus, you'll still be able to drink alcohol! However, as with any diet, there's a proper way to go about it so you don't end up worse than you started. In F-Factor Diet, here is just a fraction of what you will discover: ● How to avoid the uncomfortable initial effects of increasing fiber intake, and spare yourself some embarrassing encounters ● Practical tips to stick to your diet even when dining out (and they won't require you to act like a high-maintenance diva) ● How you can indulge in your favorite desserts while still following the guidelines of the diet ● A thorough list of fiber-rich whole foods, so you'll never be confused when grocery shopping ● Handy mobile apps to take the guesswork out of tracking your fiber and net carb intake ● 12 quick and appetizing recipes that will bring back the joy of eating, without the added guilt And much more. Losing weight should not just be about achieving a certain number on a scale. It should be about feeling better in your own skin and making healthier choices. A diet that forces you to feel hungry and deprived is not one that will make you feel good, and in the long run, it's not sustainable. You'll end up bingeing and gaining more weight than before. But when your decisions are based on fulfilling your nutritional needs and nourishing your body, the weight loss will follow naturally. Make this the last diet you'll ever need to be on.

Download or read book Dietary Reference Intakes Research Synthesis written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-01-05 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What information is available to inform the planning of a nutrition research agenda for the United States and Canada? This question provided the backdrop for the Dietary Reference Intakes Research Synthesis project undertaken by the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the National Academies. The Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) are quantitative reference values for recommended intakes and tolerable upper intake levels for a range of nutrients. They are used widely by dietitians in individual counseling, by federal nutrition officials in program and policy development, and by the nutrition research and education communities in government, academia, and industry. Between 1997 and 2005, the IOM published a series of six DRI reports covering a total of 45 nutrients, energy, and other food components. The IOM also issued two reports describing ways to apply the DRIs in assessment and planning. Together, these eight reports contain more than 450 research recommendations and thus a wealth of information pertinent to a nutrition research agenda. To make the recommendations more accessible, the Food and Nutrition Board undertook a project with two major elements: (1) the development of a searchable database of all the DRI research recommendations, and (2) the Dietary Reference Intakes Research Synthesis Workshop, held June 7-8, 2006, which was designed to provide a venue for hearing and discussing experts' perspectives on the research recommendations identified in the DRI reports. Two members of the workshop planning group-Drs. John W. Suttie and Susan J. Whiting-moderated the DRI Research Synthesis Workshop. After an overview and demonstration of the DRI Research Synthesis Database, panels of experts addressed DRI research recommendations related to each of the six DRI nutrient reports, the two DRI applications reports, and three cross-cutting topics: (1) setting DRIs for children, (2) Tolerable Upper Intake Levels, and (3) relevant new and underutilized research techniques. This report is a summary of the workshop presentations and discussions.

Download or read book Weight Management written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-12-01 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of fitness and body composition standards in the U.S. Armed Forces has always been to select individuals best suited to the physical demands of military service, based on the assumption that proper body weight and composition supports good health, physical fitness, and appropriate military appearance. The current epidemic of overweight and obesity in the United States affects the military services. The pool of available recruits is reduced because of failure to meet body composition standards for entry into the services and a high percentage of individuals exceeding military weight-for-height standards at the time of entry into the service leave the military before completing their term of enlistment. To aid in developing strategies for prevention and remediation of overweight in military personnel, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command requested the Committee on Military Nutrition Research to review the scientific evidence for: factors that influence body weight, optimal components of a weight loss and weight maintenance program, and the role of gender, age, and ethnicity in weight management.

Download or read book F Factor Diet Guide For Novice written by Vincent Bronson and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The F-Factor diet promotes eating more pulses, vegetables, whole grains, and fruit, a goal that most should strive for. However, it can be easy to get swept up in counting fiber intakes and carbohydrate limits, making it easy to lose sight of eating and enjoying your favorite foods in healthy moderation. "Prioritize wholesome, nourishing foods before re-thinking everything you eat in terms of the nutrients it contains," London said. "We benefit from nourishment from multiple sources and experiences - enjoying food should be front and center, not just focusing on one single nutrient!On the whole, the diet puts the most emphasis on high-fiber foods, like fruits, non-starchy vegetables, legumes, and select whole grains like high-fiber cereal and bulgur, per the website. The F-Factor Diet also recommends getting extra fiber through its branded fiber-and-protein bars and powders, as well as GG crispbread crackers.Conversely, F-Factor cautions against eating high-fat meat, and encourages dieters to avoid saturated fats and added sugar. But still, the diet repeatedly advertises that you can lose weight "without losing everything you love." Presumably, it's fine to eat any of these things, as long as you hit the diet's fiber, net carb, protein, and fat goals.One thing F-Factor makes sure to note is that alcohol is not off limits, and that a 4-ounce glass of wine contributes 2 net carbs to your daily carb count. The F-Factor blog explains that, while no one should start drinking alcohol if they don't do so already, drinking in moderation can be part of the diet plan from the outset.

Download or read book Optical Fiber Telecommunications VII written by Alan Willner and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 1118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With optical fiber telecommunications firmly entrenched in the global information infrastructure, a key question for the future is how deeply will optical communications penetrate and complement other forms of communication (e.g., wireless access, on-premises networks, interconnects, and satellites). Optical Fiber Telecommunications, the seventh edition of the classic series that has chronicled the progress in the research and development of lightwave communications since 1979, examines present and future opportunities by presenting the latest advances on key topics such as: Fiber and 5G-wireless access networks Inter- and intra-data center communications Free-space and quantum communication links Another key issue is the use of advanced photonics manufacturing and electronic signal processing to lower the cost of services and increase the system performance. To address this, the book covers: Foundry and software capabilities for widespread user access to photonic integrated circuits Nano- and microphotonic components Advanced and nonconventional data modulation formats The traditional emphasis of achieving higher data rates and longer transmission distances are also addressed through chapters on space-division-multiplexing, undersea cable systems, and efficient reconfigurable networking. This book is intended as an ideal reference suitable for university and industry researchers, graduate students, optical systems implementers, network operators, managers, and investors. Quotes: "This book series, which owes much of its distinguished history to the late Drs. Kaminow and Li, describes hot and growing applied topics, which include long-distance and wideband systems, data centers, 5G, wireless networks, foundry production of photonic integrated circuits, quantum communications, and AI/deep-learning. These subjects will be highly beneficial for industrial R&D engineers, university teachers and students, and funding agents in the business sector." Prof. Kenichi Iga President (Retired), Tokyo Institute of Technology "With the passing of two luminaries, Ivan Kaminow and Tingye Li, I feared the loss of one of the premier reference books in the field. Happily, this new version comes to chronicle the current state-of-the-art and is written by the next generation of leaders. This is a must-have reference book for anyone working in or trying to understand the field of optical fiber communications technology." Dr. Donald B. Keck Vice President, Corning, Inc. (Retired) "This book is the seventh edition in the definitive series that was previously marshaled by the extraordinary Ivan Kaminow and Tingye Li, both sadly no longer with us. The series has charted the remarkable progress made in the field, and over a billion kilometers of optical fiber currently snake across the globe carrying ever-increasing Internet traffic. Anyone wondering about how we will cope with this incredible growth must read this book." Prof. Sir David Payne Director, Optoelectronics Research Centre, University of Southampton Updated edition presents the latest advances in optical fiber components, systems, subsystems and networks Written by leading authorities from academia and industry Gives a self-contained overview of specific technologies, covering both the state-of-the-art and future research challenges

Download or read book Fiber written by Susan Crawford and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of fiber optic connections reaching neighborhoods, homes, and businesses will represent as great a change from what came before as the advent of electricity. The virtually unlimited amounts of data we’ll be able to send and receive through fiber optic connections will enable a degree of virtual presence that will radically transform health care, education, urban administration and services, agriculture, retail sales, and offices. Yet all of those transformations will pale compared with the innovations and new industries that we can’t even imagine today. In a fascinating account combining policy expertise and compelling on-the-ground reporting, Susan Crawford reveals how the giant corporations that control cable and internet access in the United States use their tremendous lobbying power to tilt the playing field against competition, holding back the infrastructure improvements necessary for the country to move forward. And she shows how a few cities and towns are fighting monopoly power to bring the next technological revolution to their communities.
