Nutrition
Recent years saw a shift in numerous medical paradigms.
Now we know that we should not hide from the sun completely, because vitamin D that our skin produces with the help of the sun’s rays is important for a number of processes in the body (including weight management); or that margarine is not a healthy solution, but rather one of the worst fats we can consume.
Some of the recent scientific information changes substantially the way we think about diet and dieting. How much and what you end up eating, and the impact it has on your fat stores, is the result of a combination of environment, genetics, mood, movement and sleep patterns. Some vitamins and macronutrients may influence fat oxidation (burning). It may make a difference whether you eat your carbohydrates before, with or after proteins/fat, and whether you drink tea, water or wine before, with or after meals. There are numerous hormones, enzymes and neurotransmitters involved in the process.
Human nutrition is one of the most complex fields in biology, but some of what research has proved is what we have suspected with our common sense. Studies looked at how food composition influences our feeling of fullness. In one, a group of women could eat as much as they wanted – of nutrition-dense foods. Another group could eat as much as they wanted of high glycemic carbohydrates and fats. The first group ended up eating half of what the second group ate.
This BBC article describes on how different foods may influence long-term weight change.
