whole health source wednesday january 25 2017 i ve moved hello dear readers after nine years of blogging on this platform i ve decided to move to a new website at stephanguyenet com this coincides with the impending release of my book the hungry brain on february 7 2017 as well as my general desire to have a more professional looking public interface my blog will be there as well as a book page a page for the ideal weight program and other resources thank you all for your support and i ll see you at stephanguyenet com sincerely stephan posted by stephan guyenet at 3 07 pm 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday january 2 2017 goodbye staffan lindeberg a photo staffan sent me showing him weighing a kitavan man as part of the kitava study i recently heard the sad news that staffan lindeberg md phd lead researcher of the kitava study has died staffan was a dedicated researcher and physician at lund university in sweden whose work was inspired by the evolutionary health principle after reading boyd eaton and melvin konner s seminal 1985 paper on paleolithic nutrition in staffan s words it gradually dawned on me that john harvey kellogg a vegetarian zealot had more influence on dietary advice than charles darwin had staffan lindeberg food and western disease 2010 long before it was en vogue he adopted a paleo style diet and saw his own chronic disease risk factors such as body weight and blood pressure decline shortly thereafter staffan organized the kitava study an investigation into the diet and health of one of the few remaining cultures scarcely touched by industrialization although kitavans weren t hunter gatherers by any stretch of the imagination they did eat a starchy diet free of grains dairy refined sugar refined oils and all processed foods in a series of papers staffan reported that the kitavans showed undetectable levels of obesity diabetes heart attacks and stroke even in old age he went on to conduct randomized controlled trials on the paleolithic diet demonstrating that it can reduce chronic disease risk factors in a western context he published an overview his findings in a book food and western disease to read the rest of this post please go to my new website posted by stephan guyenet at 2 54 pm 22 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday november 28 2016 instant pot pressure cookers on deep sale today i ve written twice before about the instant pot an electronic pressure cooker that helps make healthy food in a time efficient manner 1 2 at some point i ll write another review of my instant pot but the gist is that it still works flawlessly and looks sharp after more than four years of frequent use here are a few of the reasons why i like it so much it increases my efficiency in the kitchen especially with beans beets artichokes and bone broth it s automatic so you can do something else while it works it s durable the inner pot is stainless steel without a nonstick liner and the gaskets are silicone the whole thing has a solid quality feel it replaces multiple bulky kitchen items it isn t just a pressure cooker but also a steamer slow cooker and rice maker the latest version is also a yogurt maker today only amazon is offering the instant pot on deep discount if you re considering getting one today is the day the older version lux50 is only 49 and the newer version duo60 is only 69 that s an incredible value for what this thing does if you purchase through the following links you ll be benefiting my work at no additional cost to yourself instant pot lux50 instant pot duo60 posted by stephan guyenet at 8 50 am 13 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest wednesday november 23 2016 this is your brain on pumpkin pie image credit evan amos thanksgiving is a special time in the united states when we gather our loved ones and celebrate the abundance of fall with a rich palette of traditional foods yet a new study suggests that the 6 week holiday period that spans thanksgiving christmas and new year s eve accounts for most of our country s weight problem 1 understanding this fact and why it happens gives us powerful insights into why we gain weight and what to do about it elina helander a postdoctoral researcher at tampere university of technology in finland and her colleagues set out to answer a simple question how does a person s body weight change over the course of the year to find out they used internet connected scales to collect daily body weight data from nearly 3 000 volunteers in the united states germany and japan after crunching the data a striking pattern emerged no matter what you celebrate at any time of year the holidays are likely to be your period of greatest weight gain read more posted by stephan guyenet at 1 52 pm 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday october 11 2016 did the us dietary guidelines cause the obesity epidemic a popular argument holds that the us dietary guidelines caused our obesity epidemic by advising americans to reduce fat intake does the evidence support this idea or is it simply a fantasy to read the rest of this post please head over to my new website posted by stephan guyenet at 1 48 pm 50 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest friday september 30 2016 cars as a metaphor for understanding obesity if we want to understand the accumulation of excess body fat it s tempting to focus our attention on the location that defines the condition adipose tissue ultimately the key question we want to answer is the following why does fat enter adipose tissue faster than it exits it follows that if we want to understand why obesity occurs we should seek to understand the dynamics of fat trafficking in adipose tissue and the factors that influence it right i don t think this is right and here s a metaphor that explains why the speed of a car depends primarily on the force that its wheels exert on the asphalt below them if we want to understand why cars move quickly sometimes and slowly at other times we should seek to understand the dynamics of how force is transferred from the wheels to the asphalt and the factors that influence it right as you may have already surmised that wouldn t be a very effective way of understanding car speed to understand car speed we have to move up the causal chain until we get to the system that actually regulates speed the person in the driver s seat looking at the problem from the perspective of the wheels is not an effective way of understanding the person in the driver s seat once we understand the driver then we also understand why the wheels move how they do similarly in obesity we have to move up the causal chain until we find the system that actually regulates body fatness the only known system in the human body that regulates body fatness is the brain once we understand how the brain regulates body fatness we ll understand why fat enters adipose tissue faster than it exits sometimes eventually leading to obesity we already know a lot about how this process works and that s why i focus my attention on the brain and behavior rather than the biochemical mechanics of adipose tissue posted by stephan guyenet at 10

eat carbohydrate rich foods that digest quickly it sends your blood sugar and insulin levels soaring then your blood sugar level comes crashing back down and you feel hungry and cranky you reach for more carbohydrate perpetuating the cycle of crashes overeating and fat gain it sounds pretty reasonable in fact so reasonable that it s commonly stated as fact in popular media and in casual conversation this idea is so deeply ingrained in the popular psyche that people often say i have low blood sugar instead of i m hungry or i m tired but this hypothesis has a big problem despite extensive research it hasn t been clearly supported i ve written about this issue before 1 a new study offers a straightforward test of the hypothesis and once again finds it lacking the study read
