The Serious Pain of Obesity Former severely obese patients: • 100% preferred to be deaf, dyslexic, diabetic, or have heart disease or bad acne than to be obese again • Leg amputation was preferred by 91.5% and blindness by 89.4% • 100% preferred to be a normal weight person rather than a severely obese multimillionaire Rand CSW, Macgregor AMC. Int J Obes. 1991;15:577–579.

Fat: Quality more Important than Quantity Quality Fats: Monounsaturated and Polyunsaturated
Healthy Fats Monounsaturated Fats • Olive, canola and peanut oils • Nuts (almonds,cashews,peanuts,filberts, macadamias,pecans,pistachios) • Avocados • Peanut butter and other nut butters

Clinical Trials of Fish Oil After Myocardial Infarction • GISSI (Lancet 1999;354:447) • 1g/d n-3 PUFA for 3.5 years • 5666 fish oil, 5658 control • CVD Death reduced by 30% • DART (Burr et al. Lancet 1989;ii:757 • 1015 fish oil, 1015 control • 0.3g/d n-3 PUFA for 2 years • IHD death reduced by 33% • Non-fatal CVD not reduced
Healthy Fats Polyunsaturated Fats Omega 6’s • Corn, safflower, sunflower, soybean • Walnuts Omega 3’s • Fatty fish: salmon, sardines, bluefish, herring, tuna, mackerel • Flaxseeds, canola oil, wheat germ
Trans Fats Nurses’ Health Study: the nurses who ate 3% daily calories from trans fat were 50% more likely to develop CHD over 14 yrs than those who ate < 1% of daily calories from trans fats
Saturated Fats and CAD • In Key’s 7 Country study, direct correlation between intake of saturated fats and increased risk of CHD

Fruits and Vegetables and Coronary Heart Diseasefrom NHS and HPFS • Men and women eating 8+ servings of fruits and vegetables a day had a 20% lower risk of developing CHD compared to those in the lowest quintile (< 3 servings/day) • Contributing most to the protective effect: Green leafy vegetables Vitamin C rich fruits Joshipura,2001
Fruit and Vegetables and Coronary Heart Disease Joshipura et al; Ann Int Med 2001
Fruit and Vegetable Intake and Ischemic Stroke: NHS and PHFS • Those in highest quintile (median of 5 serv for men and 5.8 serv for women) had a 31% lower risk compared to those in the lowest quintile (< 3 serv/day) • Contributing most to protective effect: cruciferous vegetables, green leafy vegetables, citrus fruit and citrus fruit juice

Carbohydrates • In the average Westernised diet, carbohydrates contribute at least halfthe calories • Half of these calories come from just seven sources
Carbohydrates 7 main sources of carbohydrate • Bread (15%) • Soft drinks and sodas (9.5%) • Cakes, cookies and donuts (7%) • Sugars, syrups, jams (6%) • White potatoes (5%) • Ready-to-eat cereals (5%) • Milk (5%)
Carbohydrates How do we measure its effect on our body? Glycemic Index = type of carbohydrate Glycemic Load = type of carbohydrate + amount of carbohydrate
Risk of CHD According to Glycemic Load Nurses’ Health Study 1984 -1994 RR of CHD Glycemic Load Quintiles Liu 2000

Fiber • Nurses’ Health Study(n=75,521 women) highest quintile whole grain consumption • 25% reduction in CHD • 30% reduction in ischemic stroke • 40% reduction in diabetes. • Iowa Women’s Health Study(n=35,000 women 55yo+) highest quintile • 30% reduction in coronary death • 20% reduction in diabetes
Why Are We Gaining Weight? • Data from NHANES I, II, III (1971-1994) • Total mean energy intake has increased approximately 300 kcal • Exercise/physical activity has declined Briefel et al. 1995
