Buffered Alternate Day Fasting + Light Aerobics Cut Body Fat, Maintain Lean Mass & Improve LDL Particle Size. Plus: Conventional Alternate Day Fasting Detrimental for Fertility

Image
This is how the "buffered" alternate day fast works: You eat 1/4 of the White Choc Banana Cream Pie on your fasting day and a whole pie on the next one - well, not really, but the ratios would be right ;-) I guess at least the SuppVersity facebook friends are probably going to remember the study today's article is dealing with: "Alternate day fasting and endurance exercise combine to reduce body weight and favorably alter plasma lipids in obese humans." To me that sounded like Intermittent Fasting Done Wrong Does Still Produce Great Results, When You Combine It With an Aerobic Exercise Regimen" , when I first read the abstract. After taking a brief look at the full-text (thx John!),  however, my perspective on the study changed from "even a dog has its day" to "that oes look interesting, let's see whether this kind of buffered alternate day fasting" is able to take bear up with a classic intermittent fast.  A brief warning w...

Particle Size & LCAT Analysis Shows: Three Whole Eggs per Day Improve Lipid Profile in Men & Women W/ MetSyn. Plus: Up to 700% Increased Lipid Oxidation in Hardboiled vs. Fresh Omega-3 Eggs From Hens on Fish Oil Diet

"Not the yellow part of the egg!", is the literal translation of "Nicht das Gelbe vom Ei!", which is German and means "not exactly brilliant" - telling isn't it? As a regular here at the SuppVersity you will probably have come across a line like "make sure to get at least 20g of quality protein (meats, poultry, eggs, fish, dairy) with every meal!" at least once. If we discard the fish, which is, outside of the occasional discussions about mercury and other heavy metals in our food chain, about the only of these highly nourishing foods, the various experts appear to agree is healthy for you, all of them are to be consumed only "on occasion", "in moderation" and preferably in their "lean" or "low-fat" varieties. And while you (should ;-) have read about the beneficial effects of full-fat dairy, yesterday , and about the actually not so bad "bad meats" in the " Meat-O-Logy " post ...

SAD - Human Study Shows: Three Days on "High Fat" Standard American Diet Produce Heart Healthier LDL Particle Profile Than NCEP-Approved Low Fat Diet

Image 1: SAD or just mad? It does in fact look like you better stick to Royal TS , French fries & co instead of following a low fat diet according to the guidelines of the National Cholesterol Education Program if you care about your heart health. In view of the fact that millions of lives depend on it (literally, not just figuratively!) it is actually quite surprising, some would probably say "scandalous" that the experimental evidence (and I am talking about controlled experiments on real , healthy human beings, not about epidemiological and thusly statistical) for the purported beneficial effects of a non-calorically restricted "healthy low fat diet" in the absence of additional exercise interventions is... scarce, to say the least. I was thusly positively surprised, when I hit on a study from a group of researchers from the Institute of Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods at the Laval University and the Lipid Research Center at the CHUL Research Cent...
