Fatty Acid That Can Reduce Fat Of Children

Children who have obese or overweight should keep fat intake to not continue to accumulate. Now supplements containing CLA can help reduce the amount of fat that have the little guy.

Small-scale studies report that supplements containing fat conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) may help children who are overweight to reduce the amount of fat, thus preventing the buildup of fat that occurs.

In this study researchers found that children of overweight and obesity showed less accumulation of fat when taking supplements of CLA for 7 months, compared with the placebo group. In addition children who consume these supplements also showed good levels of HDL cholesterol.

This suggests CLA supplements can help children experience less overall fat deposition so good for the health of children, although its effectiveness in children should be studied further. These results are reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. as quoted from FOXNews, Saturday (01/21/2012).

The study, led by Natalie M Racine from the University of Wisconsin-Madison involving 62 children aged 6-10 years who are overweight or obese. Randomly these children were given CLA or a placebo that is sometimes added to milk once a day for 7 months.

Researchers found the CLA can help melt the fat body. In one recent study found obese women who have diabetes can reduce some fat in their bodies by eating sulemen this for 4 months.

CLA is an unsaturated fatty acid that can also be found in products of beef, lamb and milk. However, CLA supplementation given to children in this study are generally derived from vegetable oils rich in linoleic acid.

Obesity that occurs in children should not be taken lightly, because it can be a serious problem. It is associated with risk factors for numerous diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke and other diseases.

7 Foods To Strengthen Men's Muscles

Strong and good muscles can be obtained with adequate calories, fluids, proteins and physical exercises to strengthen muscles. Drink plenty of fluids, eat foods rich in energy with physical exercise can make men more muscular.

Balanced food intake as recommended by the Dietary Guidelines 2010 is a good basis for planning a diet. According to the American Dietetic Association (ADA) and American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), the recipe for getting a good muscle shape is having a balanced diet with enough calories to support physical exercise.

ADA and ACSM recommend adequate intake of calories, including fat and protein. Recommendations with an emphasis on five or more daily servings of fruits and vegetables, grains, cereals, beans, and enough fluid. Enough fluids necessary for optimal hydration.

To obtain the results of physical exercise that aims to build muscle, it requires a combination of healthy carbohydrates and protein. Protein is essential for building and repairing muscle. While carbohydrates can provide energy for fuel.

But it certainly can not expect to have good muscle simply by eating protein alone.

"Proteins can serve to build muscle if it is accompanied by physical exercises that aim to build muscle," says Christine Rosenbloom, PhD, RD and editor editor of the ADA's Sports Nutrition Manual.

The experts recommend a diet that can serve to build muscle as quoted by WebMD, Monday (12/12/2011), among others:

1. Fruit and vegetables
Fruits and vegetables are the foundation of all healthy diets. Always include a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables because it can provide fiber, vitamins, minerals, and fluids. Vegetables also contain small amounts of protein.

2. Low-fat milk
Low-fat milk can provide high-quality protein, carbohydrates, and essential vitamins such as vitamin D, potassium, and calcium.

Rosenbloom and Clark recommends chocolate milk as a good drink for recovery after physical exercise. If someone is lactose intolerance, may be able to choose yogurt with active cultures.

3. Meat
Meat is a source of protein, iron, and amino acids including leucine. The content of iron in meat is useful for the transport of oxygen to the muscles. "The nutrients in meat can trigger muscle growth," said Rosenbloom.

4. Dark chicken meat
Skinless chicken is quite good because it is low in fat. However, by choosing a dark chicken meat and increase by 25 percent iron, and zinc increased 3 times to help get a healthy immune system.

5. Eggs
2010 Dietary Guidelines say that, one egg a day is good for a healthy diet, but do not discard the yolk. "Eggs contain all the essential amino acids and proteins in egg yolk and a half with other nutrients such as lutein has the eye health benefits," says Rosenbloom.

6. Bean
Raw nuts without salt or roasted nuts are good sources of protein that also contains vitamins, antioxidants, fiber and healthy fats.

7. Cereals
Grain is a quality carbohydrate, and contains small amounts of protein. A small amount of protein in grains can provide energy and build muscle, along with fiber, vitamins and antioxidants.
