Very informative

by good grief all nicknames r tak

As with all of Jimmy's podcasts, this one is informative, entertaining, and answers all the questions we've been wondering about. Doc Adam sounds like a genious and it is nice getting to know him too. I learn something new every episode and you will too.

Dr. Nally is the star

Jimmy is a childish person that constantly interrupts Dr. Nally and pokes fun at him every change he gets while "the doc" giving us listeners valuable information. It took me weeks to find out Dr. nallys name because it seemed to me that jim went out of his way to keep that information withheld as much as possible from the listening audience. I'm hoping Dr. Nally will leave and start his own podcast, jims negative energy and useless interjections are annoying.

Great new podcast

The keto diet is growing in popularity this year, but experts think this fad should bite the dust. According to US News & World Report, keto ranked last on a list of 39 evaluated diets, tied only with the wildly unpopular Dukan diet.

Ranked second to last was the resolutioner's favorite, the Whole30. Ranked last in 2017, the Whole30 is a 30-day "reset" that claims, according to its website, to "end unhealthy cravings and habits, restore a healthy metabolism, heal your digestive tract and balance your immune system." However, the magazine's panel of health experts condemned these claims, calling it bluntly "the worst of the worst for healthy eating."

"No independent research. Nonsensical claims. Extreme. Restrictive," they declared of the popular program.

The experts thought even less of the keto diet, and here's what they assert makes it so bad. Keto dieters attempt to warp their food intake to induce ketosis, a physical state in which the body is flooded with ketones after being deprived of carbohydrates. These ketones are produced after breaking down sources of fat - both ingested fats from food and the body's natural fat storage. Advocates of the keto diet claim it turns the body into a "fat burning machine" and is the key to lasting weight loss. There have been no definitive long-term studies to confirm this, however.

Experts on US News & World Report's panel assert that the diet is difficult to follow and could have a questionable impact on long-term health. They were especially concerned with the extremely high fat content of the diet, with 70 percent of caloric intake coming from fats. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's dietary guidelines suggest that just 30 percent of calories should come from fats, while a far more generous 45 to 65 percent should come from carbohydrates.

The keto diet has also not been cleared for those experiencing kidney or liver conditions, as it could potentially affect or worsen their symptoms. The experts asserted that the ends did not justify the means - especially when the ends themselves are in question. There is no clear evidence that the keto diet provides any long-term health benefit, especially in terms of preventing heart disease and diabetes.

While there were diets that ranked at the top of the experts' list, none of them received a full five-star rating. This was due to the "weight loss" category of evaluation. The top-ranked diets for things like healthy eating promotion and disease prevention ranked lower for weight loss. The whole concept of evaluating a diet for its ability to deliver long-term weight loss is flawed - it doesn't account for the research that suggests long-term weight loss is highly unlikely, regardless of your diet of choice. For this reason, a weight-neutral approach to health is gaining popularity in medical communities.

Even the No. 1 diet on the experts' list, the government-endorsed DASH diet, failed to deliver on the questionable weight loss goal. "More than a few experts noted that they'd like to see long-term weight loss studies examining DASH," the report relayed. Those on the panel noted that it failed to provide lasting weight loss in a single long-term study.

If you're looking to improve your overall health with food, a diet is probably not be the answer. Instead, you might want to consider one of these small diet changes that could make a big difference.

How the quality of school lunch affects students' academic performance | Brookings

In 2010, President Barack Obama signed the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act.

How can you solve student obesity through Ketogenics

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
By now, it is no mystery that what people eat has an effect on their daily physical and mental health. When people keep themselves well-nourished, they can participate more fully and effectively in a wide variety of activities. Of course, nutrition has an impact on K-12 students as well, from their academic performance to their behavior in the classroom.

During the 2012-2013 school year, more than 30 million students participated in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), according to a U.S. Government Accountability Office report. By providing healthy lunches, schools can help their students perform better in the classroom and improve their overall health.

The State of School Lunches

The School Nutrition Association (SNA) is the largest professional organization for school lunch providers in the country, with 55,000 members. The SNA offers a fact sheet of statistics about the current state of the National School Lunch Program.

Through the program, nearly 100,000 schools and institutions serve lunches each day. Of the total 30 million students served:

2 million are receiving free lunches (children from families with incomes at or below 130 percent of the poverty level are eligible)

5 million are receiving reduced-price lunches (children from families with incomes between 130 percent and 185 percent of the poverty level are eligible)

7 million pay full price (school districts set their own prices for paid meals)

Currently, 130 percent of the poverty level is $31,005 for a family of four, and 185 percent is $44,123.

This data points toward one of the major issues with school lunches in America. If 19.2 million students are receiving free lunches due to their socioeconomic status, school lunch could be their only opportunity for a nutritious meal each day.

The National School Lunch Program costs the country $12.65 billion. Almost all of this money comes from the federal government.

School Lunch Legislation

In 1945, President Harry S. Truman signed into law the National School Lunch Act, which created the National School Lunch Program. In post-World War II America, Truman and Congress intended the bill to help absorb new farm surpluses.

When President Barack Obama was elected, first lady Michelle Obama sought to revitalize the National School Lunch Program as a part of her mission against childhood obesity. Nearly one in three American children are either overweight or obese, putting them at risk for chronic health problems related to obesity, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer and asthma.

School lunches had reached a point where they were not providing the nutrients students needed to succeed and be healthy. With so many students relying on free school lunches as their primary meal for the day, reform became imperative.

In 2010, Congress passed the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act. This bill made significant changes to school lunches for the first time in decades.

The most important change was the introduction of higher nutrition standards developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The bill also places emphasis on the utilization of local farms and gardens to provide students with fresh produce. It requires schools to be audited every three years to see if they have met the nutrition standards.

As the USDA worked on turning the guidelines into regulations, pushback came from several groups. Some members of Congress who had supported the legislation began to criticize government intrusion into schools, and food companies that became fearful of falling profits began to lobby for delaying the changes.

Nevertheless, the USDA regulations went into effect during the 2012-2013 school year. With every meal, schools are required to offer students fruits and vegetables, low-fat or fat-free milk, whole grains and lean protein, according to the Student Nutrition Association.

Some school districts have had to overcome challenges with implementing the USDA standards due to the increasing cost of feeding students. In school cafeterias, lunches must be easy to prepare and distribute in an efficient manner.

Impact of Nutrition on Students

For years, scientists have been studying the effect of nutrition on student performance. In 2008, a Journal of School Health study discovered that fifth-graders eating fast food scored worse on standardized literary assessments. A follow-up study of fifth-graders published in The Journal of Educational Research in 2012 linked eating fast food to declining math and reading scores. How exactly do these foods affect children?

Nutrition can affect students either directly or indirectly. A 2014 report, "Nutrition and Students' Academic Performance," summarizes research on these issues.

Direct Effects

There are several direct effects that involve the immediate impact of nutrition on the daily performance of a student. Mental and behavioral problems can be traced back to unhealthy nutrition and poor eating habits.

Nutritional deficiencies in zinc, B vitamins, Omega-3 fatty acids and protein have been shown to affect the cognitive development of children. There is also evidence to suggest that diets with high amounts of trans and saturated fats can have a negative impact on cognition. This will harm the ability of students to learn at a pace necessary for school success.

Scientists have also established a link between student behavior and nutrition. Access to proper nutrition can help students maintain psychosocial well-being and reduce aggression. This can have a positive effect on students by avoiding discipline and school suspension.

Indirect Effects

The indirect effects of poor nutrition can be severely detrimental to the performance of students over time. Students with unhealthy lifestyles are far more likely to become sick. These illnesses then have an effect on the amount of class time missed. By not attending classes, students are much more likely to fall behind. And when they are in class, they are more likely to have little energy and to have concentration issues.

The Future of School Lunch and Student Performance

Teachers know that school lunches are a key part of the school system. They have a daily impact on the well-being of students both inside and outside of school.
