Weight loss is the term commonly associated with "losing weight" or slimming.
Weight loss I feel is the wrong term and should be reconsidered as fat loss because weight can come from water, bone, muscle and other fluids such as when pregnant. In this short article I explain a little bit about body composition.

Employers have a legal duty to look after the health and safety of their staff. Some employers do the minimum such as just about provoiding PPE equipment and minimum first aid trained personel while others go a bit further and some train all their staff in first aid with an in-house course. This I admire as first aid can and does save lives and permanant disablement if applied correctly and timely.
Can employers do more for their staff through good nutrition?

The ratio of fat and lean tissue (fat-lean ratio) has in the past been measured by inaccurate methods such as BMI and waist-hip ratio. Other measurements are skin fold measurements such as used by physiotherapists and fitness trainers in the past and height and weight, visuals such as photos and postural assessment.
Modern methods can use bioimpediance analysis which is a weighing scale that is very intelligent! Please read on..........

BMI is a measure whether you are a risk of disease, Hip Waist ratio is the relationship of fat around the midsection compared to the measurement of the hip circumference and we have been told for years that the wrong ratio is bad. Dr Briffa in this article busts the myth of both of these measurment standards.

Coffee gets lots of bad press so does tea sometimes! Both get slated sometimes for their caffeine content. Green tea has a great reputation but also contains decent levels of caffeine compared to normal black tea. Coffee has higher levels of caffeine but if you dont have it for breakfast, lunch and tea and everytime you sit down then you may well benefit from the therapeutic benefits of coffee. Like all processed and junk foods, instant coffee in your jar is rubbish even the one that has a reputation for being the same as real coffee! What rubbish! read on...

News came this week that diabetes is predicted to affect 380 million people globally by the year 2025. Seeing as this figure was 30 million just 20 years ago, there's clearly cause for concern. So what are we going to do about it? In today's blog, I've outlined the two main strategies that I believe are likely to stem the tide. One, not surprisingly, is to move more. The other, is to chuck out conventional dietary advice given regarding the prevention and treatment of diabetes. To find out why this is important, and what works better,

Bulimia is an eating disorder characterised by cycles of 'bingeing and purging'. This condition was in the news recently because its incidence in cities has been found to be some 5 times greater than that in rural areas. On Monday, I offered a part-explanation for this phenomenon which concerns chemical imbalance in the brain. While bulimia is generally considered to be a principally psychological problem, there is amassing evidence that its root cause can be physiological in nature. In Monday's post, I suggest two nutritional approaches that I find in practice are often highly effective in controlling and even banishing bulimic symptoms.
