Diet Soda Makes You Fat | Foodie Buzz

The Wall Street Journal just reported that Diet Coke beats out Pepsi for consumers in the US—only Coke beats them both in total sales. Consumers reach for a can of that cold, bubbly, sweet beverage to get their jolted caffeine fix and a sugary high, but without the calories of normal soda. Sad thing is, if you’re drinking diet soda, it’s still going to make you fat. Find out why.

Researchers from the University of Texas Health Science Center recently presented strong data proving that diet soda makes us fat. They found that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they gained. It doesn’t get much simpler than that.

But it does get more serious than that. Overall, all soda drinkers (both sugar-sweetened and diet) gained weight compared to a control group that did not drink soda. But those drinking only diet soda gained more weight than those drinking regular soda. Hm. So much, in fact, that researchers concluded there is “a 41% increase in risk of being overweight for every can or bottle of diet soft drink a person consumes each day.”

Why does diet soda make us fat? It’s not unlike low-fat foods, which also make us fat. Here are some popular theories:

Nursing. It’s Not Just a Career – It’s a Calling

Nursing. It’s not just a career – it’s a calling.

My hospital used that as an advertising campaign a few years back. Effective, yes, but is it true?

We think of nursing as a job, our work, a profession (which it is). It’s what we do – a choice we’ve made. Nurses can live comfortably on our incomes and even in hard times, there are usually jobs to be had.

And the variety! E.R. and flight nursing for adrenaline junkies, floor nursing for those gifted in multi-tasking, Intensive Care for techies, hospice, school nursing, home and public health – the list goes on and on.

I went around the unit last week asking random colleagues why they’d become nurses. Had they pro-and-conned their way into the field, decided they needed something to “fall back on” (as my mother used to say), or heard a voice from Heaven?

A Day in the Life of an Oncologist: “How Do You What You Do?” | GRACE :: Coping with Cancer / Social Work

On the rare occasion I’m in a social situation with people who aren’t in medicine (yes, I’m sure you know I don’t get out much, so this is largely from remote memory), the most common question that follows my answer to what I do for a living is, “How can you do what you do?”.   People imagine the obvious low points of telling people about a new cancer, about delivering bad news and discussing people’s difficult cancer-related symptoms and potential to decline despite our best efforts.  It’s fair to wonder what keeps us going.  So I thought I’d provide a brief sketch of a day in my clinic, which offers several ups along with the downs everyone might envision as dominating life in the oncology clinic.

   Work starts at about 7AM. At least the drive in avoids the big traffic.  I review my schedule, briefly reviewing the recent records of the people coming in that day, including a more detailed review of the records of new patients, including reviewing their scans that are usually delivered in anticipation of their arrival in my clinic.  Check e-mail, sign head shots in response to fan mail*, etc. (*in truth, it is perhaps technically more accurate to say that I sign dozens of orders for prescription refills and lab orders).

   Before clinic starts, I head to the hospital to round on inpatients of mine in the hospital.  One is a young man with testicular cancer who is doing fine on his chemo, though he’s grown weary of the hospital food after three admissions lasting 5 days each for inpatient chemo.  Fortunately, this is his last planned round of chemo, so the end is in sight.  And he knows I’m not responsible for the food.  At least his nausea is so well controlled that he’s interested in eating.

World TB Day, March 24, 2011, March 21, 2011 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH)

World TB Day
March 24, 2011

Statement of Christine F. Sizemore, Ph.D., and Anthony S. Fauci, M.D.
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
National Institutes of Health

The theme of World TB Day 2011 — "On the move against TB: Transforming the fight towards elimination"— reflects renewed momentum to approach the global problem of tuberculosis with greater intensity and seriousness of purpose. This growing interest is broad-based, emerging from leaders in public health to laboratory scientists, from physicians to activists.

Today, about one-third of the world's population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the bacterium that causes TB. Most people have no symptoms because the bacterium is inactive, or latent, but individuals with symptoms of active TB disease can infect others. According to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates, in 2009 more than 14 million people had active TB, leading to 1.7 million deaths, or 4,600 deaths each day. Among people infected with the bacteria, those who have certain other conditions, such as HIV/AIDS and diabetes, are more likely to develop active TB and to die from it. Because of this deadly synergy, TB has become the leading cause of death among people with HIV/AIDS.

Although TB control programs have led to a decline in cases worldwide, the emergence and spread of drug-resistant strains of Mtb challenge the way we currently approach TB diagnosis and treatment. Extensively drug-resistant TB, while relatively rare, has been confirmed in 58 countries, including the United States, and likely is present in many more. It has become necessary not just to identify the infection but also to determine the proper therapy for patients at the earliest stages of disease.

    AP Enterprise: Indian youth suicide crisis baffles - Yahoo! News, Poplar, Montana

    Chelle Rose Follette fashioned a noose with her pajamas, tying one end to a closet rod and the other around her neck. When her mother entered the bedroom to put away laundry, she found the 13-year-old hanging.

    Ida Follette screamed for her husband, Darrell.

    He lifted his child's body, rushed her to the bed and tried to bring her back.

    "She was so light, she was so light. And I put her down. I said, 'No, Chelle!'"

    But the time had passed for CPR, he said, his voice fading with still raw grief. His wife sat next to him on the couch, sobbing at the retelling.

    You said a prayer
    And I believed there was a God that I could always talk to.

    When You Thought I Wasn't Looking by Mary Rita Schilke Korzan ©1980
    You kissed me good-night
    And I felt loved.

    When You Thought I Wasn't Looking by Mary Rita Schilke Korzan ©1980

    When You Thought I Wasn't Looking by Mary Rita Schilke Korzan ©1980.

    This poem was inspired by my mother, Blanche Montgomery Schilke.

    Mary Rita Schilke Korzan ©1980, http://onceuponapoem.com/

    "When I wrote a tribute for my mother years ago, I never anticipated it would take a world wide journey. Nonetheless, that is exactly what happened. The story I am about to share with you may read like fiction. I can assure you, there is nothing in the world that has ever been more true.

    Frost covered the windows in my little apartment as I sat thinking about the festivities that would define my life in a few short months. In June (1980) I would graduate with an education degree from Bowling Green State University and would be married six days later. It didn't take much reflection to realize I owed a debt of gratitude to many who helped me along the way. Even so, it was my mother, more than any other, who taught me by example and inspired me.
