Coffee During IVF: Excessive Consumption Could Reduce Fertility
It will likely come as no surprise that over-consumption of coffee can lead to insomnia, upset stomach, irritability and even muscle tremors. However, the risks may be even worse for specific groups of people. For example, researchers from Denmark recently conducted a study finding that drinking excess coffee during IVF may reduce fertility in women who seek to become pregnant through in vitro fertilization (IVF). The study found that women who drink six or more cups of coffee daily reduce their chances of becoming pregnant through IVF by up to 50%. If you’re a typical coffee drinker, or even a serious coffee lover, there’s probably no need to worry as the study found no fertility loss in women who drank between 1 and 5 cups of coffee per day. For women who drink more than five cups daily, however, the reduction in fertility is equivalent to smoking cigarettes.
Peel an Apple to Lose Weight? Study Says Yes
Eating an apple to lose weight could be a reasonable part of your weight loss regimen. Besides being a snack that contains very little fat or sodium, some research suggests that apples could play a part in kidney stone prevention as well as reduced risk of skin and respiratory diseases. Apples are also a good source of soluble fiber. Recently, however, a new study conducted on mice suggests that the peels of an apple actually contain a powerful ingredient capable of preventing obesity and spurring weight loss. The compound, known as ursolic acid, is also found in cranberries, prunes and various herbs (thyme, oregano, lavender, rosemary, basil, peppermint, etc.) in addition to apple peels, though it’s most concentrated in the latter. Previous studies have indicated that ursolic acid may have strong anti-cancer properties as well.

Want to Quit Smoking? Eat Fruits and Veggies, Study Says
For anyone who has smoked cigarettes for an extended period of time, most likely, you are familiar with just how hard it is to quit.
In fact, many scientific studies have shown that smoking cigarettes can be as addictive as heroin or cocaine. The primary reason, nicotine. Smoking cigarettes, and the act of smoking cigarettes, create both a physical and emotional dependency.
Because of this, most individuals that try to quit smoking find it to be quite challenging. However, there are approaches that have been proven to increase the success rate of successfully quitting cigarettes, for once and for all.
In fact, according to a recently published study, there are certain foods that can assist you in successfully giving up cigarettes specifically, fruits and vegetables.
During the study, the smokers who consumed the largest quantities of vegetables and fruits were three times as likely to kick the habit, for a minimum of 30 days, when compared to the individuals who ate the smallest quantities of the same types of fruits and vegetables.
The researchers behind the study are confident in their findings because they accounted for a number of factors that could’ve influenced the results, such as gender, age, education, income, race and lifestyle choices such as illicit drug use, alcohol use and exercise frequency.

Scheduled Eating Prevents Weight Gain
Conventional dietary wisdom says that weight gain is primarily caused by consuming more calories than your body burns on that given day. While that’s certainly true, it’s also caused by adhering to an unusual eating schedule, according to a recently published study involving mice. Now, scientist believe they have found evidence that an eating schedule to lose weight is a good part of a healthy diet plan.
During the study, the mice that received a high-fat diet and were allowed to eat around the clock gained weight, as expected.
However, a second group of mice that was fed the exact same diet but restricted to an eight-hour eating schedule did not gain as much weight, despite eating the same number of calories overall as the mice in the first group.
According to the researchers, the results of the study lend credence to the notion that it’s not just what types of food you consume, but also when you eat them as well that will ultimately determine whether you lose weight or gain weigh.

Berries Prevent Cognitive Decline in Women
Earlier this month, we reported on a recently published United Kingdom study indicating that regularly consuming berries may reduce the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. A more recently published study by clinical researchers at the Harvard Medical School supports these findings, concluding that women who eat blueberries and strawberries may slow their rate of mental decline in later life.
The mental health and cognitive benefits of berries may be due to their flavonoid content, according to the medical researchers. Flavonoids can be defined as phytonutrients in plant-based foods that typically contribute to the color of the actual food. Most flavonoids act as antioxidants. More specifically, they assist in neutralizing overly reactive oxygen containing molecules and prevent them from damaging parts of other healthy cells.
