The food you eat isn’t always what you think it is, for example the artificial red color used in many yogurts, ice cream and candy is something called carmine.

And carmine is made from crushed red beetles and it sounds like an innocent color but it’s actually crushed insects.

Why Is It So Hard To Lose Weight

May 31, 2010
 
 Interview with Howard Eisenson, M.D., co-author of the book The Duke Diet: The World-Renowned Program for Healthy and Lasting Weight Loss
 
______________
 
Mike Carruthers:
As you likely know, losing weight and staying fit can be a difficult challenge.

 
Howard Eisenson M.D. :
Most people have a biological susceptibility to becoming overweight if they are in a weight-promoting environment - and that's the environment we live in today. Food is everywhere, it's inexpensive, it's not just available but it's promoted.

_____________

 

Mike Carruthers:
Food names have some very interesting origins. Like the word - BEETS.

 

Martin Elkort:
It means beast. It's from the French word bête. And the reason they call it beets is because the early cooks - when they cut a beet in half, it looked like a living animal and it was bleeding and so they called it a beast.

 

The Problem Of Super-Sizing

_____________

 

Mike Carruthers:
As we look at the obesity problem in this country, a lot of people are pointing fingers at the fast food companies, saying they are a big part of the problem.

 

Frank Cardello:
It's really economics. I mean nobody sat in their offices in these fast food restaurants or in the food companies saying, "How do we make people overweight or fat?" - rather they make more profits the larger the size gets.

Mike Carruthers:
You've probably heard that having excess body fat around your middle is a risk factor for heart disease. But what you may not know is...

 

Dr. Daniel Monti:
That fat around the middle secretes an enzyme called aromatase. That aromatase converts a man's precious little testosterone in the middle years into estrogen - causing some of those feminizing effects that men sometimes complain of.


Daniel Monti, M.D.
