Fast Food| Trigger Osteoporosis
STYLE modern living with the very practical things often make you eat fast food. However, before proceeding with this diet, it is useful to consider first the impact of poor health. Not only triggers obesity, fast food, or better known as fast food can also reduce bone density.Fast food contains lots of fat, sodium, and sugar that has been expressed to lower bone density. In addition, fast food is not nutritionally balanced because the cooking process that can not be controlled. Several types of fast food rich in oil and butter, which of course also no guarantee of hygiene, and almost no fast food options are available with a reduced fat content. In addition, fast food is also likely to contain only a few vegetables and fruits.
Fast food is usually consistent with a soda or a cola drink. Did you know, sodas and colas contain a lot of phosphorus, minerals that form acid in the body. Research has found that phosphorus can interfere with the ability of bones to absorb calcium. A study published in Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine showed that adolescent girls who drink lots of soda at higher risk of bone fractures and osteoporosis.
In addition, these drinks are loaded with simple sugars are just as dangerous as sugar causes a decrease in bone density. Adolescence, the peak bone formation (approximately 40-60%), it is better to choose a diet of whole foods and drinks that are free from the risk of decreased bone mass.
Although you are eating fast food in moderation, the researchers state that your risk of obesity is still greater. The difference between fast food and cooked food at home, according to researchers, is the number of calories in a dose of the same.
The number of calories you should consume in a day can be met only with a meal at fast food outlets by eating foods such as burgers, fries, drinks and desserts. According to biologists, eating too much fast food can trigger physiological changes that can stop the hormones work in sending signals of satiety. Because it, you'll continue to eat unconsciously.
Under normal conditions, these hormones will control the process of eating and weight. Leptin, for example, will continually released by fat cells. Leptin levels in the blood indicates the status of supplies of body fat. This signal will then be read by the hypothalamus, a brain area that regulates eating habits, and make it as a guide in maintaining the stability of the stock.
Problem, according to endocrinologist at the University of Washington in Seattle Michael Schwartz, will arise in those who are overweight. Those who are obese, according to Schwartz, will be resistant to leptin. "The brain loses the ability to respond to these hormones when body fat increases," said Schwartz, as quoted womenfitness site.
The more fat contained in the body, the hypothalamus will be even less sensitive. In the end, the hypothalamus will assume that the excess amount in the body as a normal amount. And furthermore, any reduction in the amount of leptin is read as a gesture of hunger. That way, the frequency and number of meals you will be excessive.
Afternoon Sunlight Prevent Osteoporosis
You avoid the sun during the day, for example because you fear of the dark-skinned? Think again. A new health advice recommends that exposure to the sun at noon, good for your health.
Seven organizations have issued joint advice on vitamin D, obtained from the body's natural sunlight. Vitamin D keeps bones strong and keep us from osteoporosis (bone loss).
These instructions may be addressed with caution because of concerns about skin cancer, making people reluctant to direct sunlight at noon.
Cancer Research UK and the National Osteoporosis Society are two of the institutions that agreed to be exposed 'a little and regularly' sunshine several times a week can have a positive impact on health.
The experts now say no problem going outside the house in broad daylight when the sun is hot, as long as you use sunscreen before reddening.
Professor Rona Mackie from the British Association of Dermatologists said the total sun protection with sunscreen that has a high protection factor of the time was not ideal, especially in terms of levels of vitamin D.
"Even Australia has changed its policy about this. They published a graph showing the area of Australia where the use of sun protection is not needed in a time of the year," says Professor Mackie.
A number of messages about sun exposure is too negative. Summer sunlight in the UK is not too strong. To this end we issued recommendations that exposure to 10-15 minutes in the UK in the summer, without sunscreen, several times a week is considered safe is balanced between the adequacy of vitamin D and risk of skin cancer.
