U.S. News & World Report Reveals Best Diets for 2015
Many people look to the reputed U.S. News & World Report for their rankings of things such as universities, hospitals, law schools, business schools, graduate schools, medical schools and cars. For the past five years, the magazine has also developed a ranking system for the most popular and culturally significant diet plans in an attempt to discover which diets are actually the healthiest. Anybody who’s trying to improve their health by sticking to a diet plan knows how difficult it can be to cut through all the promises and hype surrounding many diets. U.S. News determines their rankings by thoroughly combing through medical journals and government reports while also consulting with a panel of experts in nutrition, food psychology, obesity, diabetes and heart disease. This unbiased, third-party review examined 35 different diets to try cutting through the false claims.

8 Tips For Sticking to Your Weight Loss Resolution
According to a recent Marist poll, 44 percent of Americans are making a new year’s resolution in 2015. The most common resolution – cited by 13 percent of respondents – was weight loss. This isn’t really surprising, as smoking cessation, weight loss and getting more exercise are probably the most common new year’s resolutions every year. Other common resolutions include saving money, eating healthier, spending more time with family and just generally being a better person.
Of course, everybody knows that new year’s resolutions can notoriously fall flat within a few weeks. The Marist poll stated that 41 percent of those surveyed didn’t keep their resolutions from 2014 for even part of the year. So how can a person stick to a weight loss resolution? Well, it takes dedication, planning and perseverance.

Fast Food and Brainpower: Unhealthy Eating Could Affect Kids’ Brains
Everybody knows that fast food is bad for your health. Eating too much of it can lead to all sorts of health conditions such as obesity, high blood pressure and high cholesterol – all of which are serious risk factors for heart disease and diabetes. There is some hope on the horizon, though. Some studies show that calories are dropping in general among fast food items. Also, with calorie counts becoming mandatory in many restaurants, people might start making smarter choices when eating out. But while much has been discussed about the physical aspects of junk food, the link between fast food and brainpower isn’t widely known. Does fast food have any effect on your ability to think and learn? Unfortunately, a new study says yes. Even worse, it seems to affect kids – eating too much fast food at a young age could actually impact test scores.
Lack of Exercise Blamed in America’s Poor Health Rankings Report
For the last 25 years, the United Health Foundation has provided a health rankings report, which aims to provide an overall snapshot of the U.S. population’s health in each state. While there is always some good news and some bad news in the health rankings, the 2014 report is anything but encouraging. Despite a decrease in obesity rates over the past few years, the obesity rate in 2014 was the highest it’s been since the health rankings began. It’s 24.9 percent – over double what it was 25 years ago. This also means that well over one in four Americans is obese. At the same time, the number of people who reported engaging in no physical activity has gone from 22.9 percent last year to 23.5 percent in 2014. Of course, some areas of the U.S. are healthier than others. For the third year in a row, Hawaii is considered the healthiest state in the nation. Southern states tended to show up near the bottom of the list.

Can a Mediterranean Diet Slow the Aging Process?
The Mediterranean diet does not consist of a specifically defined diet plan. Instead, dieters attempt to emulate the eating habits of people who live in the various countries bordering the Mediterranean sea. The diets of people in these regions vary greatly, of course, so the Mediterranean diet ends up consisting of a few loosely defined rules. For starters, the diet is focused mainly on vegetables, fruits, bread, beans, potatoes, nuts and seeds. Red meat is consumed very rarely, and poultry and fish are eaten in low to moderate amounts. A staple of the Mediterranean diet is olive oil, which is used to replace unhealthier fats like butter. Herbs and spices replace salt, and red wine can be consumed in moderation if desired. Although the diet contains more fat than the AHA recommends, some people adopt it to prevent heart disease. Now, a new study suggests the diet could increase life expectancy.
