Could the Fasting Mimicking Diet help some breast cancer patients?

Fasting is a trend that is gaining popularity due to its potential benefits in some common chronic conditions.

Among the different types of fasting, intermittent fasting is one of the most popular. This fasting alternates intervals of extreme calorie reduction with periods of normal eating. A different kind of fasting is the Fasting Mimicking Diet, or FMD, as the experts at Ackerman Cancer Center said.

FMD is followed for five days at a time, and it is low in calories, sugars, and protein, but high in unsaturated fats. FMD has shown to decrease risk factors/biomarkers for aging, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer without significant adverse effects of complete fasting, according to the cancer center.

One in eight women in America will develop breast cancer in their lifetime, the numbers from the American Cancer Society show. And just last month, Nature Communications published research from a randomized phase 2 trial that

Trial finds introducing gluten into diet early may prevent celiac disease

The results of a long-term clinical trial have found carefully introducing gluten into an infant’s diet from the age of four months could reduce their risk of developing celiac disease. The trial only offers preliminary evidence of this association, and the researchers stress larger trials are necessary before any broader dietary recommendations are suggested.

Around 10 years ago, a large dietary intervention study commenced in the United Kingdom investigating whether introducing certain foods to infants early could prevent the development of allergies. Called the Enquiring About Tolerance (EAT) study, more than 1,000 infants were enrolled.

Half were randomly allocated to a control group exclusively breastfed until six months of age, as per the current general recommendations. The other half, the introduction group, consumed small volumes of six allergenic foods from the age of three months, alongside breast milk.

Milk, egg, peanut, sesame, fish and wheat were the six allergens studied.

This really popular diet may not help you lose weight after all

This popular diet trend might not be the best option for weight loss.

Intermittent fasting is considered by some to be the most effective and natural method for improving health. For those looking to burn weight fast, intermittent fasting teaches you how to eat on a schedule, which makes it more about a lifestyle change rather than a diet. It balances mostly on an individual’s personal lifestyle, what their patterns of eating are, and how food is used throughout the day in one’s life.

While it might be beneficial to those looking to control the way they eat, it is not the best strategy for shedding a few pounds on the scale, according to a new study.

Researchers from the University of California, San Francisco, and the University of Hawaii Cancer Center recently published their findings in JAMA Internal Medicine, that suggested the popular time-based diet didn’t “confer weight loss

Starting September 30, 2020, Malaysia’s supply of edible salts will be mixed with iodine. According to the Health Ministry (MOH), iodine must be added to salt or fine salt – the ones we regularly use for cooking – weighing 20kgs or less, before it can be sold to consumers.

Why so-dium salty?

This comprehensive dietary change was made following amendments to the national Food Regulations 1985 in 2018 after it was found that Malaysians are suffering from iodine deficiency.

Studies revealed that around 48% of Malaysian children between 8 and 10-years-old lacked iodine in their diets.

Iodine deficiency, as the name suggests, comes from the lack of iodine –
