The Secret Way to Make The Waist Slim

As we get older and less mobile lifestyle, waist size was gradually widened as a result of fat. For those of you who want to get rid of fat around the waist, slight changes in daily activities was a big influence on the size of the waist.


They are more often rose from his seat, about 1258 times in a week rose from the seat, has a size of pants two times smaller than their more sedentary, which is about 99 times pause to sit in the same period.

"The size of a smaller waist means less belly fat, and this pile is a good indication for the heart," said Genevieve Healy, researchers from Australia who did the study population health.

He explained, when we stand up, big muscles in the legs and back sequentially will contract to maintain the posture. However, when sitting or lying down, it's muscle groups become inactive.

"For a moment, got up from sitting, about 1-2 minutes, is enough to make these big muscles to contract," said the researchers who published their study in the journal European Heart Journal.

In his research, Healy and his team examined 4757 people aged 20 years and over who participated in the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. All the participants wore an accelerometer at the hip right tool for 7 days when they were awake.

This tool will measure the amount and intensity of physical activity every minute participants. When very low levels of activity, the researchers suspected participants were sedentary.

On average the participants were seated approximately 1.8 hours to 21.2 hours a day. Meanwhile, the amount of time taken to get up around 4.12 minutes.

The researchers found that those who spend lots of time to sit down but do pause and rose from his seat has a more slender waistline. In addition, levels of C-reactive protein (an indicator of inflammation in the body) is also lower.

Effect of sugar-sweetened beverages in Women

Drinking two glasses or more sugar-sweetened beverages per day can increase the risk of heart disease and diabetes in women. Nevertheless, the habit was not to gain weight.

According to Health Day News, soda and other sweetened beverages is a target in the fight against obesity. The problem, according to latest research results, the drink may not cause weight gain, but it triggers something more severe.

Middle-aged women who drank two glasses or more drinks in a day had a four times higher risk will increase blood fats called triglycerides.

In addition, these drinks also damage their blood sugar levels when compared with women who drank only one glass a day.

The good news, both groups were equally showed no weight gain. The findings were presented at the annual meeting of the American Hearth Association in Orlando, Florida, United States.

However, these cases do not occur in men. There is no explanation of why the group drink sweet things that do not affect men.

Possible causes are women require less energy for metabolism than men. Thus, two glasses of soda every day will not affect the condition of men. They need more servings in order to see its impact.

In the end, reduce or do not eat at all sweetened drinks are the easiest steps to avoid heart disease and diabetes. Is it not so?

Blood Type Could Affect Female Fertility

Those with blood type A "significantly less likely" to have FSH levels over 10 compared to those with blood type O.

Blood type can affect a woman's chances of becoming pregnant, according to the results found by scientists.
Those with blood type O may have to struggle to get pregnant because of the amount and quality of eggs were lower, while those with blood type A seems to be more fertile.

More than 560 women with an average age of 35, who were undergoing fertility treatment, took part in the study led by researchers from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York and Yale University.
Blood samples were taken to measure levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), a marker of fertility of the womb.

FSH levels are more than 10 shows a pregnant woman will have difficulty than those with levels below 10.
High FSH levels are indicative of reduced ovarian reserve, which refers to the quality of the eggs and the number of eggs available for fertilization.

Ovarian reserve tends to decrease significantly when a woman reaches the age of the mid to late 30's, and even faster in the early 40s.

This study showed that women with blood type O were twice as likely to have FSH levels over 10 compared with the other blood group. The result remains the same even when the woman's age into account and also the fact that she came from two different clinics.

Meanwhile, those with blood type A "significantly less likely" to have FSH levels over 10 compared to those with blood type O.

People with blood type A has antigen A, which is a protein on the cell surface, but the content is not found in people who are Type O.

Dr. Edward Nejat, from the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Albert Einstein College, presented these findings at the conference of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) in Denver.
He said, "In both groups of women who seek fertility treatment, those with blood type O were twice as likely to have FSH levels over 10 compared with other blood group O.

"We found that women with A and AB - women with blood group A gene - have been protected from the influence of reduced ovarian reserve.

"The population we studied, and the fact that there are two different medical clinics and there is a good mix of patients from various ethnicities and races, we can say that the blood group O was associated with FSH levels greater than 10 in women seeking infertility evaluation and / or treatment.

"Patients with blood type O, which is seeking infertility evaluation at a health clinic, have a higher likelihood to be diagnosed with FSH, and the results obtained is the fact the lack of ovarian reserve."
Nejat said FSH level is just one marker of fertility and further studies are still needed. "The age of a woman remains the most important factor in determining pregnancy success.
"Base FSH gives us an idea of ​​the quality and quantity of women's eggs."

Tony Rutherford, chairman of the British Fertility Society, said, "This is the first time I realized that the researchers have shown an association between blood groups and fertility potential."
However, he said, there are other hormones that can also predict decreased ovarian reserve, which is also important to use.

"This is interesting and suggests a potential relationship, but we really have to see it another way, more to the ovarian reserve testing calendar."

Rutherford said that larger studies need to be done in the general population to see if blood group is causing problems for women trying to conceive.

"We need to see groups of women prospectively to examine whether this blood type does affect your chances of getting pregnant," she said. "This requires further exploration."

Pattern of Diet to Prevent Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is one of the most deadly disease of women. Every year, there were 46,000 women affected by breast cancer, and 12,000 of them eventually gave up.

Many things that we can actually do to prevent it. According to the researchers, eating vegetables, fruits, and milk, two times a week can help prevent this type of cancer.

Evidence has been obtained after the researchers studied 50 overweight women in the 30-45 year age range. They have a genetic risk for developing breast cancer. From these studies, it appears that women who cut calories to only 650 calories twice a week will significantly reduce the levels of hormones that trigger cancer in the blood.

With this two-day diet you can limit a lot more calories than if you reduce the size of the meal every day. This affects all cells in the body, especially those in the breast. such as reduced food supply, thus making these cells more stable and will not break down to form a cancer.
 
The recommended diet consists of four servings of vegetables, a piece of fruit, one quart low-fat milk, and a cup of green tea. After six months, researchers found that the respondents experienced a decline in hormone levels cause kaner (on average 40 percent less leptin, and insulin reduced by 25 per cent) in the blood. No less important, the average body weight was also reduced to 6.5 kg.

It has long been known that losing weight can help prevent breast cancer, because obesity is believed to cause a third of all cases of breast cancer. The main challenge is that people have difficulty losing weight. If successful, one or two years later most people will return to its original weight.

Well, so, from now on try to make healthy eating and exercise as part of your lifestyle.
