It will come as no surprise to read that our diets have a marked effect on our long-term health and longevity. Increasingly, experts are sending out the message that calories aren’t created equal – it matters where they come from. A landmark study from the US National Institute of Diabetes, Digestive and Kidney Diseases in 2019 fed two groups of participants ‘equally enjoyable’ diets that were matched for calories, sugar, fat, fibre and macronutrients. The only difference is that one group was fed ultra-processed food and the other unprocessed food. A growing body of research links ultra-processed food (UPFs, which now make up more than half of the average person’s daily calorie intake in the UK) to obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. One 2022 study from the University of Navarra found that UPFs cause the body to age faster and increase the risk of all-cause mortality. Researchers at the University of Michigan who created a Health Nutritional Index in 2021 found that every hot dog a person eats takes a shocking 36 minutes off their healthy life expectancy. Soft drinks (such as coca cola) shortened life by 12 minutes, bacon by six minutes and each double cheeseburger devoured shaved off just under nine minutes. The research also revealed that even a portion of cheese eaten can take over a minute off a healthy lifespan. But, before you ditch your weekend rashers, it’s not all bad news – the index also showed that it’s equally possible to add minutes to our healthy life expectancy by eating better foods. For instance, each banana was shown to add 13 and a half minutes to life, as was a portion of baked salmon. At this point, you may be wondering: of course, hot dogs shouldn’t be the mainstay of our diet, but surely having one occasionally can’t hurt? No, eating a single hot dog won’t necessarily shave 36 minutes off your life in real time, but almost all experts agree that the category they fall in – UPFs – spells seriously bad news for our health. So if you're looking to lead a healthier and slightly longer life, we've listed some foods to be wary of. Fear not, however, we've also found some equally delicious alternatives to swap into your diet.

Why do I wake up heavier than when I went to bed?

You breathe heavier at night during sleep which causes you to lose carbon. The carbon loss accounts for a pound or so when you wake up in the AM.

Why you weigh less in the morning.

There is a reason our morning appointments are always full. It is the same reason we have people taking out their stud earrings during our afternoon appointments. It is no secret; you weigh less in the morning! This does not mean you gain fat throughout the day. Your body has natural fluctuations depending on what you eat! Here are the top 5 reasons morning you is lighter than afternoon you: I will venture a guess that you are probably not wearing clothes in the privacy of your own home when you get on the scale in the morning. Clothes depending on the season, can weigh 2-4lbs. If you hop on the scale at your doctor's office or local Nutrish Mish, you will always be wearing clothes, so keep that in mind, it is all relative. At night your body processes what you eat during the day. The weight of some food and drink will be in your system until your body has a chance to do it's clean up during REM sleep. That is another reason you wake up lighter than when you go to sleep. You breathe heavier at night during sleep which causes you to lose carbon. The carbon loss accounts for a pound or so when you wake up in the AM. Water also comes out when you breathe as well as when you sweat at night which accounts for a few lbs. as well.
