Minimizing Diabetes Risk? One Soda Per Day is One Too Many
A recent study indicates that drinking even a single 12-ounce can of soda each day may significantly increase your risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. The study was conducted as part of InterAct, a large, ongoing investigation into how lifestyle and genetic factors influence Type 2 diabetes risk. InterAct is a collaboration between nine countries, including the U.K., Sweden, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Finland, Denmark and Germany.

Taking a Supplement with DMAA? Stop Now, Says FDA
If you take a supplement containing DMAA (dimethylamylamine) you should stop doing so immediately, according to a new report from the Food and Drug Administration labeling the drug “dangerous” and “illegal.” DMAA is found in certain supplements intended to assist with weight loss and body building. The side effects can include shortness of breath, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat and even heart attack, according to the FDA. The announcement marks the first time the FDA has officially warned consumers about the potential dangers of DMAA. However, the organization has worked previously to get supplements including the ingredient stripped from the market. In 2012, the United States military removed DMAA-containing supplements from stores on military bases after suspecting that such supplements were related to two soldier deaths.

Study: Only 3% of Kids’ Meals at Restaurants are “Healthy”
About 97% of kids’ meals sold at restaurants around the country fail to meet the health and nutrition standards defined by the CSPI, or Center for Science in the Public Interest, according to a study by this same organization. The group analyzed almost 3,500 meals from more than 40 chain restaurants around the country, many of which have recently attempted to amp up the nutritional value of their kids’ meals, in coming to their conclusions. Just as a few examples, the CSPI found that 73% of the meals came with french fries, 78% came with a sugar-sweetened beverage, and over 50% were in excess of 600 calories.

Lack of Sleep? You May be Eating Too Much to Compensate
Just a few days ago, we talked about how engaging in exercise allows for higher quality sleep at night. Many studies have shown a relationship between physical fitness and sleep, such as that women are more likely to meet their weight loss goals if they get at least seven hours of sleep each night. Now, a new causes of overeating study indicates that getting too little sleep at night could cause you to overeat the next day. Although some additional calories are necessary to compensate for the lack of sleep, the study found that people tend to overcompensate and take in too many calories as a result. While the study seemed to only concentrate on calories, it should be noted that other qualities of food may have played a role in participants’ weight gain. Late-night snacks, for example, sometimes consist of high-fat processed foods, junk food or candy.

Obese Moms at Greater Risk for Heart Attack After Giving Birth
If you’re pregnant or if you plan on becoming pregnant, it may be wise to achieve a healthier body weight. According to a new study conducted by the University of Copenhagen in Denmark, obese mothers are more likely to have a stroke or heart attack during labor. Specifically, the study found that four or five years after childbirth, obese moms have double the risk of suffering a heart attack or stroke in comparison to mothers of a normal body weight. All of the women involved in the study were approximately 30 years old. The researchers were careful to account for factors such as pregnancy complications and smoking habits when coming to their conclusions. According to a professor from the University of Southern California, around 1 in every 16,000 pregnant women will suffer from a heart attack during the actual pregnancy term.
