overweight adolescents ate fewer times per day and were not as hungry when they were taught how to make healthier food choices and snack on a nutrient-rich, satiating snack of peanuts or peanut butter, according to data presented at the obesity society 27th annual meeting. the study targeted frequent snacking and the number of eating episodes as part of the intervention. participants in the study were hispanic middle-school children who were part of a larger weight-loss study funded by the united states department of agriculture-agricultural research service (usda-ars). the findings show that combining education with the provision of a healthy, satiating snack, such as peanuts, can be effective at normalizing adolescent eating patterns and impacting weight. "teaching the kids what is healthy and showing them how to make changes in their diets by providing peanuts or peanut butter as a snack was simple and made sense to them. this approach helped us tackle a big problem—adolescent snacking," said dr. craig johnston, instructor at the behavioral medicine research center and the usda/ars children's nutrition research center at baylor college of medicine in houston, who conducted the study.

columbia researchers recently announced that ten percent of the u.s. population are on drugs for depression. doctors quoted by a healthday reporter thought this was an improvement because more people are seeking help when they are feeling chronically blue. but there's a foundational question that wasn't addressed: "are drugs for depression the right kind of help?"given that most people have 10 plus pounds of old, rotting fecal matter in their colon and that even newborns these days have more than a hundred known toxic chemicals already inside their bodies, do you think all of the toxicity inside the average person might be at least part of the reason one in ten people are feeling so crummy?before you answer, consider that sherry rogers, m.
