New Research

By Jim Bell, PhD.c., President IFPA

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time is our most valuable asset, yet we tend to waste it, kill it, and spend it, rather than invest it.

- Jim Rohm

New Research Update:  Our friends at the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine and the American College of Anti-Aging Sports Medicine Professionals inform me that in a recent study of dieters, those taking a Vitamin C supplement lost more fat than those taking a placebo.  Though the process is not yet understood, the theory goes that Vitamin C helps the body use fat as a fuel source instead of burning more easily available carbohydrates (or worst-case scenario—proteins).   
New Research from the Medical Community:  Recent reviews of numerous studies have led some of our nation’s most brilliant minds to conclude that drinking sugary sodas can lead to weight gain (as much as 15 pounds/year), obesity, and associated problems.  This may be the same group that last week concluded that gravity works!
New Breakthrough on Women’s Health:  I know I informed you of this already, but it is so important, I feel the need to do it again:  the FDA approved a new vaccine,  GARDASIL, that is nearly 100% effective at killing 70% of the viruses that cause cervical cancer (the second leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide).  The A4M and ACASP are recommending that all women get this vaccine ASAP!
