NUTRTION MEETING 4/14/15 BASED ON METHODIST DIETETIC DEPARTMENT, NCCN AND AMERICAN J CLINICAL NUTRITION 2012
1. Sarcopemic Obesity – low muscle with high fat usually from multiple failed diets
2. Functional Decline based on #1 based on measurement of stooping, squatting, walking, with increased sitting
3. Mental Commitment: LOOK, SEE, TELL THE TRUTH AND TAKE AUTHENTIC ACTION ( Do Not Kid Yourself and avoid Measurements)
a. People tend to be ostrich based and keep their head in the sand
b. Use the scale every day
c. See how your clothes fit
d. Measure your exercise tolerance
4. Cancers up to 50% caused by Obesity and Obesity now has PASSED smoking as the highest lifestyle risk for CANCER. Obesity is BMI > 30.0
5. Soy is NOT bad and in fact decreases risk of cancer
6. Post healthy weight attainment – 7 servings of non-starchy vegetables and fruit per day ( American average is < 2/day counting French Fries)
7. Avoid Salt – recommended daily is 2400 mg normal and we actually eat 7,000 to 12,000 per day because of processed foods
8. Avoid Carbohydrates recommended daily for health is 150 grams/day and we are now averaging 250-300 grams/ day which is the equivalent of 150 pounds of sugar per year because of processed foods and calorie dense foods and starchy vegetables with a high Glycemic Index.
9. Remember it is NOT sugar that feeds CANCER in overweight people but the Insulin associated with it and Insulin Like Growth Factor -1 (ILGF-1) that is associated with high insulin from TOO many carbohydrates
10. We need a happy MARRIAGE with our food not a combative dysfunctional relationship
IN THE FUTURE WE WILL DISCUSS EACH OF THESE TEN POINTS FROM THE UPDATE ON THE LITERATURE FROM 4/14/15.
