RealityCheck

• It is not practical to try to “count” glycemic load, in part because it will vary based upon portion size and other components in the meal.

• The take home message: cut back on processed, refined , sugary foods and drinks.

Eggs

• Provide essential fatty acids, proteins, choline, vitamins A and B12 , selenium, and other critical nutrients at levels above or comparable to those found in other animal-source foods.

• Meta-analysis suggests that egg consumption is not associated with the risk of CVD and cardiac mortality in the general population.

• New dietary guidelines do not limit dietary cholesterol.

Dietary Fat and CancerSystematic Review

• No associations were found for prostate, esophageal, gastric, renal cell, bladder, lung, skin, or postmenopausal breast cancer by the total intake or types of dietary fat.

• There may be an association between total dietary fat and premenopausal breast cancer.

• Ovarian cancer there was limited-suggestive evidence for a positive association with intake of saturated fats.

Omega 3 Fatty Acids – Bone/Muscle

• In animal studies, marine omega 3 attenuates bone loss associated with estrogen loss; EPA enhances calcium absorption, reduces calcium excretion and increases calcium deposition in bone.

• Marine omega 3 acids tend to have positive effects on bone if ingested for ≥ 18 months and given along with calcium.
