Fat Burning

Posted on: No Comments

Genetic testing

Do you have the fat gene? Researchers discovered the fat gene so now we understand fat burning better. Taking a sample of your DNA is a simple procedure.

Why weight loss matters

Obesity accounts for higher risk of disease and illness. It’s a worldwide epidemic. Surgery can help if you choose the right surgery. Also, follow your Naturopathic portfolio for weight loss that targets stubborn belly fat.

Belly fat is a more dangerous fat

Belly fat is a more dangerous fat 

Regardless of your overall weight, having a large amount of belly fat increases your risk of: See references: (1)  &  (2) 

  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes
  • Colorectal cancer
  • Sleep apnea
  • Premature death from any cause
  • High blood pressure

Obesity rates are rising rapidly in the UK and could lead to 90% of men and 80% of women being overweight or obese by the year 2050. Currently, 16 million days are lost per year due to obesity-related issues.

Age and genetics may contribute to gaining belly fat


Obesity is the result of a complex pathophysiological pathway involving many factors that control adipose tissue metabolism and deposits of stubborn belly fat. Cytokines, free fatty acids and insulin all play a part and genetic defects are likely to have a significant effect on the fine balance of this process.

WHO BENEFITS from DNA testing for healthy weight loss?

  • 20+years male or female with stubborn belly fat – failed attempts at dieting previously – MUST BE an otherwise healthy individual (pass initial screening at the Clinical Nutritional consultation)
  • 35+ years male or female with sudden unexplained weight gain or stubborn belly fat – other ageing factors must be considered and treated separately by thorough history taking, physical examination and (special) investigations (blood work) 

DNA weight loss test

The DNA Test panel is based on genetic differences in nutrient metabolism and body fat regulation or stubborn belly fat. The results can help form building blocks for signs of ageing or unexplained stubborn fat or weight gain.

KRS2 is one gene that has recently been identified as being implicated in obesity and metabolic rate. DNA sequencing in over 2,000 obese individuals identified multiple mutations of the KRS2 gene, and mutation carriers exhibited severe insulin resistance and a reduced metabolic rate. It may be that modulation of KSR2-mediated effects may have the potential to have therapeutic implications for obesity.

* In adults the diagnosis of obesity is most commonly made using levels. BMI is calculated as weight in kilograms (kg) divided by height in metres squared (m2). Ideal BMI is 18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2.The following classification is advised by NICE:

  • A BMI of 25-29.9 kg/m2 is overweight.
  • A BMI of 30-34.9 kg/m2 is obese (Grade I).
  • A BMI of 35-39.9 kg/m2 is obese (Grade II).
  • A BMI of ≥40 kg/m2 is obese (Grade III) or morbidly obese, meaning that weight is a real and imminent threat to health.

Best hydrating drink

Resident Nutrition expert Susannah caught up with Women’s Health Mag to talk hydration. FAQ: How many litres of water should I drink a day? The model answer considers our daily physical activity and our health status. How much water we need is different depending, therefore, on our lifestyle. Our Mayfair and Knightsbridge, London lifestyle is on-the-go. Find your tailored Eat DRINK Take Make plan according to YOUR lifestyle.

The climate we live in also alters our recommended daily amount fluid intake. Water is our body’s principal chemical component and makes up about 60 percent of our body weight. If you want to know when you should be drinking water to guarantee healthy weight loss ask us.

Mineral water anyone? What makes the best hydrating drink? Let’s face it, sometimes, water gets boring. How much water should we drink each day away way? Especially when we’re working up a sweat, we need to replenish our lost water. Chugging litres of the stuff can become a chore. So, let’s pep up our water bottle!

Best sports drink

Sports drinks are increasingly regarded as an essential adjunct for anyone doing exercise, but the evidence for this view is lacking. Of course the best hydrating drink will always differ from individual to individual, depending on our body’s needs and what our health status is like at any given time. Even the guidelines for how much water we should be drinking vary.

Water is our body’s principal chemical component. Water makes up about 60-70% of our body weight. Every system in our body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells. It also provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.

Lack of water can lead to dehydration. Even mild dehydration can drain your energy and make you tired.

What would you do if you got your energy back?

Drink more water

Water is your body’s principal chemical component and makes up about 60-70% of your body weight. One part of our body that relies on adequate water intake is the kidneys. The kidneys are organs that might not get as much attention as our heart or lungs. However, our kidneys are responsible for many functions that help keep the body as healthy as possible.

How much water should we drink each day?

According to the Institute of Medicine (IOM), an adequate intake for men is approximately 13 cups (3 liters) a day. For women, an adequate intake is around 9 cups (2.2 liters).

London Detox

London Detox

Cold pressed juice is a nourishing food that can be the fix we need in our hectic lifestyles. The art is in making it really delicious! But even then are we really metabolising the goodness of cold pressed juice – raw, unpasteurised juice properly? Are we benefiting from this pure vitamin and mineral hit? How do we get the most of our cold press juice? Can we drink cold press juice with meals? What should we be eating? Can cold press juice be a recipe for help heal poor digestion, or even ill health. Can cold press juice ever be toxic?

Cold press extraction is a 2-Step Process. Picture this.
Three kilos of produce. Now imagine those 3 kilos pressed. Cold Press Juice in London delivers quality micronutrients and phytonutrients you expect from this quantity. Always read the label!

How do we drink ours?

Are there health benefits to drinking a single cold press juice?

Raw, unpasteurised cold pressed juice can be part of a juice cleanse. We’re not calling it that at Susannah Makram Clinics. We’re whole body 4 PHASE method based. We want to choose the best cold press juice and combination that will make you feel better.

Hydraulic press juicer

The extraction method makes every raw ingredient in the juice count. Not all raw juice or cold press juices are created equal. We deliver the raw, unpasteurised kind as it is the only worthwhile and sure fire method to obtain nourishing goodness. The nature of unpasteurised cold pressed vegetables and fruits not only pack a nutrient dense punch. Nutrients packed into each juice are delivered and absorbed by your body. This makes their health benefits most effective and efficient in the most natural way possible.

Cold Press Juice London

Hydraulic juice presses crush and then press fruits and vegetables. This is done in a two-step process. This 2-step action is called cold pressing. Let’s catch this two-step cold press action! Watch How Cold Press Juice is Made for your cold pressed juice delivery:

Cold Press Juicer

Fast Fact. A Cold Press Juicer is also known as a Masticating Juicer or Slow Juicer.
Fast Fact. A Cold Press Juicer slowly compresses fruits and vegetables to ‘squeeze’ out the juice instead of using high-speed force to separate juice from pulp like a centrifugal juicer does.

  • Cold pressed juice uses hydraulic pressure to extract juice, gaining a larger yield.
  • Cold pressers make it far easier to fully extract the juice from leafy greens like kale and spinach. You can see how in the video above.
  • Cold pressed juice London is a way of life. Cold pressed juice is a fast and safe way to have our macronutrientsmicronutrients and phytonutrients to hand. Texture-wise, this is a unique experience. Cold pressed juice is smooth and differs from fresh juice. Fresh juice is likely to have bits in the juice. Each cold pressed juice is a unique tasting experience and consistency.
  • As no heat is applied to the fruit or vegetable, there is less oxidisation. The enzymes and nutrients remain live for 3 – 5 days.

Raw Food Juice

  • Cold Pressed Juice is likely made by a method that is called high-pressure pascalisation (HPP), which uses high-pressure chambers instead of heat to inhibit microflora growth. HPP is less destructive than traditional heat processes. It also naturally extends shelf life and so these juice cannot be classified as fresh or raw.
  • Hydraulic juice presses (or cold-pressing) crush and then press fruits and vegetables in a two-step process. The video above shows the two-step method that produces raw cold pressed juice.
  • Cold-pressing simply means that the juice is extracted by crushing the fruit or vegetable, and then pressing it to get the highest yield of juice. This is all done in a cold setting. This way no nutrients in the fruit or vegetable are damaged and enzymes stay intact.

Probiotics

Fast fact! Two million of us are consuming a probiotic. We’re drinking a probiotic as a beverage. Or we’re eating  more yogurt or yoghurt. We’re taking powders in sachets and shaking them in water bottles. We’re refrigerating probiotic capsules.

The Best Probiotic

Gut health aids the production of B vitamins. These are vital for efficient running of our nervous system. Our natural probiotic levels are easily damaged. Modern life i.e. poor diet, stress and alcohol are diminishing our levels. Hormonal fluctuations, cigarettes, surgery and drugs are commonplace factors.

We know gut health is a measure of far more than our metabolismGut health is the meter controlling our body’s ability or inability to convert our nutrition to health.

What Is The Best Probiotic Supplement?

Got heartburn, acid reflux or hiatus hernia? Choosing the best probiotic supplement may be the fastest, safest management of symptoms. Heartburn, acid reflux? Similarly, if you experience bloating, bad breath, body odour, gas or excessing burping at or in between meals.  Colds, constipation, diarrhoea, food cravings, PMS or hot flushes are another list of symptoms. Itchy nose and itchy bottom and allergies, stomach pain and stomach ulcers are unlikely indications for probiotic supplementing. Others are: Irritable bowel syndrome IBS, malodorous stools, thrush, urinary infections, vaginal discharge.

Our nutrition and our lifestyle work together for our health.  Our body should break down food we eat properly. Then we can use the nutrients in our food for health. This includes on and off switches involved in hormone secretion. Many other functional pathways rely on healthy metabolism. Otherwise we become sick and tired — literally.

Ongoing biological processes require nutrients to be bioavailable. Prescript Assist aids this process. It makes it easier for your body to eliminate waste. Also so not to confuse the goodness for waste. Prescript Assist ticks the boxes you require when selecting the best probiotic.

DNA Test For Weight Loss

DNA Diet Test analyses for healthy weight loss at Susannah Makram Clinics gives clear:

(1) % values for optimal fats, carbs, proteins to consume daily for healthy weight loss.
(2) Suggestion for which proteins, carbs, fats you should consume daily for your healthy weight loss
(3) Clear instructions on how to achieve your optimal MET on a day by day, week by week basis

Our genes might hold the key to understanding why diets have failed in the past. We call the study of how this works epigenetics.

Why take the DNA Diet Test for Weight Loss at Susannah Makram Clinics

From your buccal swab sample we have used a process, called the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This copies the DNA of your genes many times over. This means we can generate sufficient quantities to analyse your genetic material. This is not uncomfortable at all and is all over very quickly!


The DNA Diet test for weight loss lets us identify unique DNA sequences in some of your genes. You get these results within 7-10 working days in hard copy or email, however you prefer to receive them.


Identifying unique DNA sequences

Certain changes (polymorphisms) in these genes have been studied in detail. Evidence correlates these polymorphisms with your weight management and response to specific food. See these in your DNA Test For Weight Loss Results. (e.g. below)


 

DNA Test For Weight Loss

Taking the buccal swab sample

  • The term ‘Buccal swab’ refers to a DNA collection process involving cells taken from the cheek (from the inside mouth area).
  • Buccal Swabs are sterile. Therefore, it is essential to preserve a sterile test environment. They are produced for medical use. Unless you are allergic to cotton, they should not cause an irritation.
  • An advantage of a Buccal swab is that it allows you to take a DNA sample, in a non invasive way, that is accurate.
  • Buccal swabs should be taken when your mouth is empty. It is best if you swallow first, then swab the inside of your cheek for approximately 30 seconds. The feel is an impression as hard as if you were brushing your teeth.
  • Having a cold should not cause contamination or interferences to your Buccal Swab Sample of DNA testing

SIBO and IBS

SIBO and IBS

IBS and SIBO can be confused. However, there is no denying the existence of SIBO by the medical community. Here’s how to fix SIBO after we confirm the tiredness and the bloating is causing it. To know what is SIBO is to know who’s likely to have it. When we have IBS the nerve endings in our gut are always firing. This creates a condition of visceral hypersensitivity, so our gut is more sensitive than it should be. What triggers this?
The link between our emotions and digestion system makes sense: the gut has been called our second brain. Our gut contains more nerve cells than even our spinal cords.
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth aka SIBO refers to a condition whereby:

  1. Abnormally large numbers of bacteria (usually defined as at least 100,000 bacteria per ml of fluid) are present in the small intestine &
  2. The types of bacteria in the small intestine resemble more the bacteria of the colon than the small intestine.

How to fix SIBO

The majority of our gut bacteria should be in the colon. Bacteria can migrate backwards into the small intestine. Or, when there is low stomach acid or poor pancreatic enzyme production, bacteria in the small intestine can overgrow. When any of these happen it causes symptoms, such as diarrhoea, gas, or bloating.


Sibo and IBS

What are they? Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS is one of more than 20 functional gastrointestinal disorders FGIDIBS and SIBO continued.


Studies show 50% patients diagnosed with IBS actually have an underlying imbalance called SIBO.

Naturopath London

Symptoms IBS

Breaking research from UNC shows that IBS patients depending on their sub-type–or primary symptom such as constipation, diarrhea, bloating–have different clusters of microbes. i.e. Constipation predominant IBSers will have similar flora clusters compared to other IBS-C patients –and this differs compared to IBS-D patients etc.

Sibo symptoms

Do you wake up with a flat belly and by the end of the day look six months pregnant? Even if you have not experienced abdominal bloating to such an extreme, any amount of bloating is not normal. It is a sign of intestinal inflammation or poor gut health. If you are having gas and/or bloating regularly, you could have food sensitivities +/- a gut infection, such as SIBO. Certain strains of bacteria feed off of refined carbohydrates. These strains break them down into short-chain fatty acids, creating gas and causing bloating.

Another strain of bacteria can break down bile salts before your body has a chance to use them. Bile salts are crucial for the breakdown of fats. Without bile salts, the end result is fat malabsorption or diarrhea.

Finally, a third type of bacteria can produce toxins. These damage the lining of the small intestine. This prevents your body from absorbing the nutrients you need, much like what we see with a leaky gut.

Cold Pressed Juice, Juicing, Juicers

Differences Between Centrifugal and Cold Press Juicing

Soup and juice is for life. What’s juicing exactly? A Cold Press Juicer is also known as Masticating or Slow Juicer – see one in action here  Soup and juice isn’t a fashion. These are for lifelong nutrition. Our London Naturopath answers: Centrifugal Juicer or Centrifugal Juice Extractor?

Centrifugal (fast blade) and Cold Press (slow juicing)

 Traditionally a Centrifugal Juicer is the most common type of juicer. These typically utilise a fast-spinning metal blade that spins against a mesh filter, separating juice from flesh via centrifugal force. The juice and pulp are then separated into different containers.

Centrifugal Vs Cold Press Juicing

Centrifugal Vs Cold Press Juicing

Centrifugal Juicer – benefits

Pros

  • Easy to clean.
  • Can take most fruits and vegetables e.g. carrots and beets, cucumber and kale whole – so there’s limited chopping.
  • Great for juicing for smoothies e.g. Apples, Pears, Celery & Oranges
  • Easy and mobile to move around.

Centrifugal Juicer – disadvantages

Cons

  • Fast rotary blade can heat up the nutrients and enzymes in the juice. which can make the juice foamy and oxidise quicker and that can destroy some of the beneficial enzymes in the juice
  • Filter system often allows some bits in the juice
  • Tough to juice leafy greens such as spinach and kale
  • Low yield; As the blade is so fast and the machines are generally designed to work quickly, this creates a low yield leaving the pulp wasted and full of nutrition.

Cold Press Juice – Benefits

A Cold Press Juicer slowly compresses fruits and vegetables to ‘squeeze’ out the juice instead of using high-speed force to separate juice from pulp like a centrifugal juicer does.

Pros

  • Uses hydraulic pressure to extract juice, gaining a larger yield
  • Easier to juice leafy greens such as kale and spinach
  • Less likely to get bits in the juice
  • As no heat is applied to the fruit or vegetable, there is less oxidization and the enzymes and nutrients remain live for 3 to 5 days

Cons To Cold Press Juice Machine

Cons

  • A good cold press juicer can be a costly health investment
  • Can be heavy and relatively immobile
  • Using a cold press juicer can be a slow process

Buy Cold Press Juicer

Should you buy a Cold Press Juicer?

Juicing removes the fibre from your fruit and vegetables, which helps you absorb the nutrients quicker as discussed here

Whole foods are infinitely superior in vitamin and mineral quality – and oftentimes quantity – than nutritional supplements.

The bioavailability of nutrients varies from individual to individual which is why the Naturopathic Portfolio is simply concerned with your health needs.

The Naturopathic Portfolio is divided into:

1) Eat 2) Drink 3) Take 4) Make

No two portfolios are ever the same.

Best Juicer To Buy

Should you buy a juicer – Centrifugal Juicer or Cold Press?

  • There is an ethical debate over the food wastage involved with juicing
  • Fresh or raw food juice that is organic or cold pressed juices are the better option if you are consuming lots of sugary drinks, sodas or even store-bought “fresh” or organic juices, including green juice that is pre-packaged – always read the label
  • Making your own juice is a great way to know exactly what is going into your juice recipe
  • Store bought Cold Pressed Juice is likely made by a method that is called high-pressure pascalisation (HPP), which uses high-pressure chambers instead of heat to inhibit bacteria growth; HPP also naturally extends shelf life
  • Cold-pressing simply means that the juice is extracted by crushing the fruit or vegetable, and then pressing it to get the highest yield of juice. This is all done in a cold setting, so that no nutrients in the fruit or vegetable are damaged and enzymes stay intact
  • Pasteurisation means that the juice is heated to kill any bacteria, moulds and unwanted organisms. Many juices, not just green juices, are pasteurised because it extends the shelf life of a product

Making informed choices about your health is a good habit to employ at any age. This is the first step towards respecting your body. Being equipped with the knowledge to prevent illness and improve quality of life is invaluable.

Juice Cleanse – Juicer Vs Blender

Juice Cleanse

How to do a juice cleanse isn’t easy. You need kitchen appliances or a plan of action. A detox diet might be confused with a juice cleanse. While a juice cleanse isn’t easy, it’s not as difficult as it sounds. When we’ve been eating normally and then it’s just juice -that’s probably the hardest thing to get our head around.


Rest assured. Doing a juice cleanse or any so-called detox diet properly means hunger pangs will be satisfied.


Preparation is key. Is it right for me? Do we just wish to recreate our favourite organic cafe beverage, for example?
