Optimum Nutrition Magazine Summer 2016 Retour à l'édition précédente

This year saw the launch of the new Eatwell Guide, along with conflicting headlines on what should dominate our plates – fats or carbs. We look at the story behind the headlines and at why some experts disagree with the new guidelines.

We also unravel the facts from fiction in the myth of starvation mode, and find out why maintaining muscle mass is important for healthy weight-loss.

In Little Lives, we look at the growing battle against sugar and ask whether stealing candy from a baby really is as easy as the saying suggests. We also look at whether diet can make a difference to male fertility or in allergy-proofing your unborn child.

Brain cancer blogger Andrew Scarborough talks to us about his dietary experiments in the ongoing mission to improve his health, while our clinic case study looks at support for a busy business woman and mother who has been diagnosed with lupus.

In Different Strokes, we look at Emotional Freedom Technique – aka tapping – and whether it is really as good as some say.

All this in addition to recipes for gut health, research news and update, and much, much more!
