DRS 51 | FAD Supplements = BAD Supplements | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Perfect-Diet-Plan-300x199.jpg)In this episode we discuss the new “fad” supplements that have been getting more publicity in recent times, one of which is a supplement that claims to help menopausal symptoms with a side effect of helping the consumer to lose weight as well. We talk about how all of these so called “fad” supplements also state that you must have a healthy diet and exercise regularly to have the desired effects of taking said supplement. Is it the supplement or the healthy diet and exercise that is allowing you to lose weight? We will answer that question. Because of a listener requesting more information about the 80/20 rule, we go into depth on the 80/20 rule topic. We also give healthy food and exercise tips.

DRS 50 | What is Leptin? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Overweight-Woman-300x235.jpg)In this episode we discuss a special phone call Dr. Rob received in the last week which guides us into our main topic of the day. Today we talk about the hormone Leptin, which is a hormone that is released from your body fat and communicates with your brain to let it know that you have enough body fat so you can stop eating (i.e. shuts off your appetite). Dr. Rob explains, the more fat someone has, the higher the level of Leptin that is being released. Your brain becomes resistant to the increased level of Leptin and eventually your brain stops receiving the “stop eating” signal all together. We answer some commonly asked questions and we also talk about different ways to address Leptin related issues. What Do you Think? * Have you ever had your Leptin levels checked? If you are overweight, and have been struggling to lose it you should ask your doctor to check your Leptin level.

In this episode of the Dr. Rob Show, we talk about Charlie’s recent illness and Dr. Rob explains how the fall and winter months is a prime time for people to get sick. He also gives some quick tips on what to expect this time of year and some possible causes for your typical fall and winter illness. In our main topic we discuss the A.N.D.I. scale by Whole Foods and how, even though it consists of good wholesome foods, it mainly caters to the vegetarian/vegan audience. Dr. Rob explains how animal protein is not bad for you and could actually help you in your weight loss goals, as well as the misconceptions that society has placed on animal protein. We also go back into the Micro and Macro nutrient discussion. Which foods contain what and what’s better for you? Dr. Rob also makes some comparisons of specific foods and also talks about how different cultures that have more of a whole food based diet seem to have less disease and obesity than your standard “American” type diet. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the A.N.D.I. scale * Discuss micro and macro nutrients * Discuss the difference between certain cultures and their foods What Do You Think? * Are you eating the right types of food for your weight loss goals?

DRS 47 | The Plateau Effect | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Scale-green2-300x199.jpg)In this episode of the Dr. Rob show, we revisit the plateau effect discussion. We chose to dive deeper into this topic because of a recent episode of the Biggest Loser in which all the contestants on the show barely lost any weight and one even gained 5lbs, even though they maintained their diet and continued to work out vigorously. Dr. Rob explains how counting calories ultimately turns your body against you. By counting and restricting calories your body goes into “starvation mode”, which will ultimately lead to fat storage and re-bound weight gain. We also talk about the different hormones that are effected by restricting calories and the negative effects that happen to your body by doing so. No matter what you do, your body will eventually plateau at some point and Dr. Rob gives some tips on how to power through that time. He explains what to do and what not to do when you hit your plateau point. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show... * Discuss the plateau effect * Discuss how counting calories turns your body against you * Discuss ways to over come the plateau effect What Do You Think? * Have you struggled with the plateau effect?

DRS 46 | Why Do I Have Low Libido? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Low-Libido-300x225.jpg)In this Episode of the Dr. Rob Show we discuss libido in both men and women. We talk about the approximate age where libido peaks as well as when it begins to drop off due to low testosterone levels for men, and low estrogen levels for women. Dr. Rob also talks about all of the other effects on the body testosterone and estrogen has and how having low and high levels of each of these hormones, effects the body. We explain how exercise effects all types of hormones in the body, but specifically the rise in testosterone and growth hormone from vigorous exercise/activity. Having a sedentary lifestyle can be detrimental to your testosterone/estrogen levels, which can ultimately lead to low libido. By simply changing a few small things in your daily lifestyle, Dr. Rob explains how you can return your testosterone or estrogen levels back to normal. In this Episode of The Dr. Rob Show... * Discuss low libido in both men and women * Discuss how testosterone/estrogen levels effect libido * Discuss how exercise effects both testosterone and estrogen levels * Discuss how healthy lifestyle can normalizes hormone levels and improve libido What Do You Think? * Do you suffer from a low libido?

DRS 45 | What Is The Best Nutrition For Endurance Athletes? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Endurance-Nutrition-300x199.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we briefly discuss the 4th episode of The Biggest Loser (http://www.nbc.com/the-biggest-loser/), which recently had only a brief 2 minute nutrition segment hosted by one of the past contestants. We mention the fact that even though nutrition is critically important in weight loss success, the TV show tends to focus more on the fitness and exercise aspect of weight loss, which we feel is sending the wrong message to people. Dr. Rob also mentions an article he recently came across that highlights Nighttime Eating Syndrome (NES) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21387771), which is characterized by no morning appetite, evening and nighttime eating and insomnia. Dr. Rob doesn't agree with this being classified as a legitimate syndrome. Dr. Rob also answers a question from a listener regarding optimal endurance nutrition. For many endurance athletes still follow the concept of carbo-loading to prepare an event; however, Dr. Rob explains why this approach is not very efficient. (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the 2nd and 3rd episode of The Biggest Loser (http://www.nbc.com/the-biggest-loser/) * Discuss Nighttime Eating Syndrome (NES) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21387771) * Discuss why carbo-loading is not the best idea for endurance based exercise * Discuss ultramarathoner - Dean Karnazes (http://www.ultramarathonman.com/web/) * Discuss the best type of Endurance Nutrition What Do You Think? * Are you an endurance athlete?

DRS 44 | Is There a Perfect Diet for Everyone? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Anti-Inflammatory-Diet-300x300.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the recent passing of Steve Jobs and his contributions to the world through his work at Apple (http://www.apple.com/) and Pixar (http://www.pixar.com/). Dr. Rob also talks about his experience of working with executives from both Disney and Pixar when he was practicing in Los Angeles. Dr. Rob was the director of a (http://www.dadamo.com/)blood type diet (http://www.dadamo.com/)based program, which was effective for weight loss, but also produced excellent results for a wide variety of other inflammatory based conditions and diseases. The blood type diet approach was popularized by Dr. Peter D'Adamo and his best selling book, Eat Right For Your Type (http://www.dadamo.com/). Using blood type is a simple way to determine an immunologically friendly, or an anti-inflammatory diet for an individual. The majority of the population falls into two categories. Approximately 35- 40% are A+ blood type and about 35-40% of the population are O+ blood type. People with the A+ blood type tend to eat more of a plant based diet, whereas people with the O+ blood type tend to eat more of an animal protein based diet. Interestingly, neither type tolerates wheat or dairy products very well. This means that 80% of the population should not consume wheat and dairy products on a regular basis. Many people, even without knowing their blood type tend to consume a diet consistent with the characteristics of their actual blood type. People who are A+, tend not like much animal protein and are commonly vegetarian or vegans. People who are O+ like protein and do very well with protein. The blood type approach makes the argument that their is not a "perfect" diet for everyone. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the 2nd and 3rd episode of The Biggest Loser (http://www.biggestloser.com/) * Discuss the recent passing of Steve Jobs * Discuss Dr. Rob's experience working with executives from Pixar (http://www.pixar.com) * Discuss the documentary Forks Over Knives (http://www.forksoverknives.com/) What Do You Think? * Do you know your blood type?

DRS 43 | Sugar – “I Wish I Could Quit You” | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/DRS-sugar-pic-300x199.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show we discuss sugar cravings. This discussion is a continuation of our last episode, which we talked about circadian rhythm and how artificial light affects our hormones, which ultimately affects our weight and health. The artificial light environment we live in today can also cause us to crave sugar. To put it simply, if you are not sleeping, then your brain wants food. More specifically, your brain wants sugar, which is obviously the default energy choice for the brain. Also, Dr. Rob discusses a recent article, which suggests that sugar cravings for children might be biological (http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2011/09/26/140753048/kids-sugar-cravings-might-be-biological). Of course, sugar cravings are biological. We are all hardwired for carbohydrates. Our sugar cravings and overall appetite is a feed forward system, which means the more sugar or "carbs" you eat, the more you want. This can become a slippery slope for someone trying to lose weight, or dealing with a health condition like Diabetes. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss sugar cravings due to artificial light * Discuss the book, "Lights Out (http://www.amazon.com/Lights-Out-Sleep-Sugar-Survival/dp/0671038680/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1317105642&sr=8-2)," written by T.S.

DRS 42 | Effects of Working Nights on Weight and Health | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Night-Shift-Nurse-200x300.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show we discuss circadian rhythm and the effects that working the night shift has on weight and overall health. Dr. Rob brings up a book called Light Out (http://www.amazon.com/Lights-Out-Sleep-Sugar-Survival/dp/0671038680/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1317105642&sr=8-2), which was written by T.S. Wiley, the creator of the Wiley Protocol (http://www.thewileyprotocol.com/). The premise of this book revolves around the idea that electricity and the invention of the light bulb was the beginning of our demise from an health standpoint. In the book, artificial light is blamed for having an excessive appetite and sugar cravings, which contributes to the obesity and Diabetes epidemic. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss circadian rhythm and sleep deprivation due to artificial light * Discuss the effects of working nights on weight and health * Discuss the book, "Lights Out (http://www.amazon.com/Lights-Out-Sleep-Sugar-Survival/dp/0671038680/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1317105642&sr=8-2)," written by T.S.

DRS 41 | Is The Biggest Loser A Big Failure? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/The-Biggest-Loser-TV-Show-300x300.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show we discuss a recent article criticizing the reality weight loss TV show, The Biggest Loser. It is hard to deny the popularity of the show, but many weight loss experts are criticizing the approach the contestants of the show undertake. The dramatic weight loss results on a weekly basis, certainly makes for good television; however, significantly reducing calories and the intense exercise is not the best approach for long-term weight loss success. This same, "eat less and exercise more," outdated approach has been shown time and time again to produce short term results, but ultimately leading to long-term failure. So are contestants of The Biggest Loser being set up for failure? Who's fault is it if some of the contestants re-gain the weight? Certainly, the initial reaction would be to blame or point the finger at the contestants. Of course, there is a certainly level of personal responsibility for making the necessary diet and lifestyle changes long-term, but in reality it is not the contestants fault for re-gaining the the weight. It is the approach. America loves to see the contestants transformations, which is amazing to watch and very inspiring, but the show is sending people the wrong message when it comes to successful weight loss. In It is fundamental to understand that weight gain and obesity is not a calorie and lack of exercise problem, it is a hormonal problem. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the recent criticism of The Biggest Loser TV Show * Discuss some of the difficulties some past contestants have had after the show * Mention Dr. Rob's ebook The Perfect Weight Loss Solution (http://www.theperfectweightlosssolution.com) What Do You Think? * Do you watch / like The Biggest Loser? * How fault is it if a contestant re-gains the weight?

DRS 40 | “Worry Weight” – How Stress Causes Weight Gain | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Overweight-Woman1-300x235.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we welcome back a previous guest to the show, Dr. Valorie Davidson (Dr. Rob's Wife) and discuss the new controversial kid's book titled "Maggie Goes on a Diet (http://www.amazon.com/Maggie-Goes-Diet-Paul-Kramer/dp/0981974554)." This book has not been released yet, but has been met with some opposition stating that it is sending the wrong message and is encouraging young girls to diet. Dr. Rob and Dr. Davidson give their opinion about the book. Also in this episode we discuss "Worry Weight," and how stress causes people to gain weight. In the 21st century chronic psychological stress is just a fact of life. Whether it is work, family or finances we all have a constant level of stress that overtime tends to take a toll on the body and as a result, predisposes people to gain weight, especially around the waistline. In fact, in many cases people with high levels of stress, don't consume that many calories on a daily basis, but still continue to gain weight overtime. This is what we refer to as "non-caloric weight gain," and can make the weight loss process very frustrating. Stress induced weight gain can be attributed to a hormone called "Cortisol," which incidentally enough is commonly referred to as the "stress hormone." In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the new kids book, "Maggie on a Diet" * Discuss "worry weight," and how stress causes weight gain * Discuss the "stress hormone," called cortisol (http://www.youtube.com/user/drrobertmaki?feature=mhee) What Do You Think? * What do you think of "Maggie on a Diet?"

DRS 39 | What Is The Best Exercsie for Burning Fat? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/woman_lifitngweight.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show we discuss the recent launch of Dr. Rob’s eBook titled The Perfect Weight Loss Solution (http://www.theperfectweghtlosssolution.com/) and describe each of the 3 phases of this weight loss system. We also discuss the best exercise for burning fat, and talk about a recent hiking adventure to describe the ideal form of exercise. In the past, the concept of the “fat burning zone,” which is long duration, low intensity aerobic, or “cardio” based exercise, such as jogging is not effective for burning fat and can actually have a detrimental impact on the body. A recent study (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/08/16/15-minutes-daily-exercise-live-longer_n_928137.html) conducted in Taiwan found that people who engaged in as little as 15 minutes of moderate to intense exercise daily, reduced their risk of death by 14% and added 3 years to their lifespan. In regards to effectively burning fat, the same holds true. Exercising with more intensity and shorter duration is the ideal way to burn fat. Dr. Rob mentions some colleagues of his who have a company called Metabolic Effect (http://www.metaboliceffect.com/), and they promote “rest-based training,’ which is based on high intensity and short duration exercise. Short duration, high intensity exercise is a better strategy to encourage the body to effectively burn fat. Dr. Maki also mentions another practitioner, Dr. Al Sears (http://www.alsearsmd.com/) and discusses his new book titled PACE (http://www.pacerevolution.com), which aligns with this approach to fitness.

DRS 38 | Does Losing Weight Prevent Cancer? | In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show we discuss the difficult topic of cancer. We discuss how the type, quality and the amount of certain foods can contribute to the development of certain cancers. We talk about T. Colin Campbell and The China Study (http://www.thechinastudy.com/), which was an important study that concluded eating higher amounts of animal protein and fat increased the risk of developing certain cancers. In the study, this difference was seen between the rural and urban populations in China. The rural population tended to eat more vegetables and less animal protein, and therefore had a lower incidence of cancer. Whereas the urban population consumed more animal protein and less vegetables and had a higher incidence of cancer. In Dr. Rob's opinion, there is probably some other variable in the urban population that was not accounted for such as the consumption of sugar, refined carbohydrates or alcohol. Researchers have been trying to blame heart disease and cancer on the consumption of protein and fat for 50 years. As a country, Americans are consuming less fat on a daily basis, but the incidence of cancer is increasing. The more likely culprit is the ever increasing consumption of sugar and refined carbohydrates in our society. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss 'The China Study,' conducted by T. Collin Campbell * Discuss nutrition and cancer * Discuss how the type, quality and amount of food contributes to cancer * Discuss weight loss and cancer * Discuss the term "Epigenetics," which is how our environment affects our genes * Discuss foods that prevent cancer and other chronic disease What Do You Think? * Do you have a family history of a particular cancer?

DRS 35 | Are Your Friends Making You Fat? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Scale-FAT2-300x223.jpg)Have any of your friends or family members tired to sabotage your weight loss efforts? In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show we discuss a recent study that suggests having overweight friends can increase your risk of gaining weight. The study attributed the increased risk of weight gain to eating more food and exercising less, but that explanation seems a bit too simple. There certainly has be some deeper psychological forces that influence people within a particular social group. Is it due a need for conformity? Is the influence by friends and family intentional, or is it again, more of an unconscious reaction based personal insecurities? Unfortunately, many of us have been victims of weight loss sabotage by friends or family. Losing weight is hard enough, you certainly do not need any negative influence from your loved ones. The proper support is essential to your weight loss success. We give tips on how to over come weight loss sabotage.

DRS 33 | Probiotics For Weight Loss? | (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/DRS-33-Probiotics-300x225.jpg) In this episode of the Dr. Rob Show we discuss the popular topic of Probiotics and how they may have a positive impact on your weight loss goals. In the human body, we have approximately 100 trillion bacterial organisms in the colon, which have a major impact on overall healthy and wellness. Of the trillions of organisms in the colon, there are roughly 400 different species of bacteria. When this balance of bacteria is upset due to factors such as anti-biotic use and stress, it is called Dysbiosis and can contribute to many health conditions. Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that can be taken orally as a supplement to re-establish the proper balance of bacteria in the colon. Probiotic supplements have long been used for many digestive complaints and conditions, but to use specifically as a weight loss supplement is a fairly new concept. Recent research done at Stanford University (http://med.stanford.edu/news_releases/2009/july/probiotics.html) found that gastric bypass surgery patients who were given Probiotics lost more weight then the control group. This is an interesting finding that certainly needs more investigation, but gives more evidence that weight and obesity is more complex then just eating less calories and exercising more. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the popular topic of probiotics for weight loss * Discuss the fact that there is roughly 100 trillion bacterial organisms in the human colon * Discuss recent research from Stanford University (http://med.stanford.edu/news_releases/2009/july/probiotics.html) that used Probiotics with gastric bypass patients * There are 3 proposed mechanisms how gut bacteria can contribute to weight gain * Gut bacteria consume calories * Gut bacteria promote fat deposition * Gut bacteria increase systemic inflammation (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/reduce-inflamation-and-lose-weight/) * Dr. Maki's favorite probiotic company is Klaire Labs (http://www.klaire.com/) What Do You Think? * Do you think using Probiotics is beneficial?

Also, we discuss a recent article published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition that concluded not eating breakfast over the long -term can contribute to obesity, increase cholesterol levels and eventually lead to heart disease .

DRS 18 | Does Insulin Cause Weight Gain? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Thanksgiving-Effect1-300x182.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss a common pattern for millions of Americans, which we refer to as the “Thanksgiving Effect." This effect does not just happen on holidays. In fact, this response to eating a meal is happening on a daily basis for millions of people all across the country. The "Thanksgiving Effect" is a direct indication that blood sugar regulation and insulin response is imbalanced, which leads to weight gain and can increase the risk of developing Type II Diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Download the MP3 (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/audio/DRS-18.mp3) In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… * Discuss the typical meal intake pattern for many Americans and how it contributes to weight gain and eventually Type II Diabetes. * Discuss the fact that the amount of insulin released from the pancreas is related to the type and amount of food consumed. * Discuss the fact that skeletal muscle and the heart prefers to use fat as an energy source as opposed to sugar. * Discuss the "Pleasure Trap" and how it manifests in American lifestyle.

DRS 17 | The Perfect Weight Loss Solution | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Scale-Apple-Dumbbell-300x188.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss how Dr. Rob got started helping people to lose weight and his transition away from using a ketogenic program initially to his current approach. Most weight loss programs focus on intentional caloric restriction, which produce short-term results. However, by focusing only on calories, the results achieved on most "diets" and programs are not sustainable long-term. The "restriction" based approach to weight loss is certainly outdated. Both health care practitioners and even the general public desperately needs to change their mindset. Instead of focusing on "restriction" as the key to weight loss, we need to realize that food is actually "information" to the body that communicates with several hormones and ultimately DNA. It is more complicated then just reducing calories. In fact, obesity in a sense is a form of starvation. Not for macronutrients (carbs, fats and protein), but starvation of micronutrients (vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients).

DRS 16 | Is My Thyroid Making Me Fat? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Overweight-Woman1-300x235.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the growing epidemic of thyroid issues in America. The current estimates claim that approximately 12 million people or 6% of the US population have some type of thyroid condition, with hypothyroid diseases being the most common. Unfortunately, with the stressful and toxic 21st century, there are probably millions more that have been undiagnosed. This is partially due to lack of awareness and poor screening tests. Hypothyroid issues are predominately a female related condition and the most common cause is an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto’s Disease. Some of the common hypothyroid symptoms include fatigue, constipation, weight gain and hair loss.

DRS 15 | Does The HCG Diet Really Work? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Waist-tape1-300x199.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the validity and long-term efficacy of the HCG Diet. This new diet craze was introduced to the marketplace a few years ago by Kevin Trudeau in his book, "The Weight Loss Cure They Don't Want You to Know About." Trudeau’s book contained a protocol of Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, which involves a 500 calorie per day diet and daily injections of HCG. The very low calorie diet (VLCD) causes the body to go into a state of ketosis, which is when the body burns ketone bodies instead of glucose as a fuel source. The state of ketosis, along with the administration of the HCG hormone produces rapid weight loss in a relatively short period of time.

DRS 14 | Will Water Help Me Lose Weight? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Drinking-Water-300x199.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the importance of staying well hydrated and how critical it is for weight loss and overall health. Our bodies are made up of approximately 70% water, so we need to consume water consistently throughout the day to maintain a proper level of hydration. However, with all of the choices available on the market today, we have a tendency not drink enough water throughout the day. Also, many commercial beverages contain caffeine, sugar or sodium, which can compound the problem and have a negative impact on the body overtime as well. A recent study found people who consistently drank water before meals, lost more weight than people who did not consume water as consistently overtime. This study provides more evidence to support the benefits of drinking adequate water on a daily basis. In addition, we also discuss another study conducted in Japan linking insulin resistance with Alzheimer’s disease.

Many of the hormone imbalances that contribute to weight gain also contribute to sleep issues as well. Also, the health of the liver plays a significant role in proper sleep. Consuming too much caffeine, alcohol or medications can over burden the liver, which could affect someone’s ability to sleep.

DRS 12 | Why Do People Gain Weight? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Scale-FAT2-300x223.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the recent report (http://www.cdc.gov/Features/VitalSigns/AdultObesity/) released by the CDC (http://www.cdc.gov/), which says the obesity rate is still on the rise. In fact, new data in the report shows that nine states have an obesity rate of 30% or higher in 2009. The rate obesity is escalating faster than researchers could have ever imagined. Over the last couple of decades, the rate has doubled for adults and tripled for children. In addition we talk about another study that has found pregnancy weight gain increases the risk of childhood obesity.

A recent study conducted by Kaiser Permanente found that people who utilized a specially designed website more frequently, had greater weight loss success and were better able to keep the weight off over a two year period of time, then people who used the website less often. The author of the study attributed the success of the website to the fact that it provided both a source of accountability and sociability for the study participants.

DRS 10 | Inflammation and Weight Gain | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/waist-jeans-300x199.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the role of inflammation in weight gain. In our society, one of the major sources of “inflammation” is our daily diet. The digestive tract, mouth to anus is nothing more than an extension of the immune system, which serves as a protective barrier against potential hazards. Every time we eat, are immune system is stimulated. Many of us consume allergenic foods on a consistent basis, which can increase the inflammatory potential in the body. Overtime, this constant exposure to allergic foods can eventually lead to a range of symptoms such as allergies, digestive issues, joint pain and weight gain. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show (http://www.drrobertmaki.com/)… * Discuss the role food sensitivities play in inflammation * Discuss the most common food sensitives * Discuss the role inflammation plays in many symptoms and diseases, including weight gain What Do You Think? * What type of symptoms do you have?

DRS 9 | Are Medications Safe? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Pill-bottles-dollars.jpg) In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the necessity of particular types of medications commonly prescribed in the US. Some of the best selling medications may not even be necessary if the proper diet and lifestyle changes are made.

DRS 8 | What Am I Supposed To Eat? | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Apples-market-300x204.jpg) In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss the importance of food selection in the weight loss process. Most of the attention is placed on calories alone, and very little attention is given to the “type” of food consumed. There are also many misconceptions about what foods are “healthy.” Many people end up eating all the wrong “types” of foods, which may be negatively affecting their weight loss goals. In addition to the type of food consumed, daily meal intake pattern is equally important during the weight loss process. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… (../category/the-dr-rob-show/) * Discuss the impact of proper nutrition on athletic performance * Discuss the importance of constant eating for weight loss * Discuss the fact that losing weight is about changing behavior / patterns * Discuss the 3 basic criteria for food selection What Do You Think? * What is holding you back from making the necessary dietary changes?

DRS 7 | The Hidden Benefits of Resistance Training | (http://drrobertmaki.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/woman_lifitngweight.jpg)In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show, we discuss recent research that indicates resistance training, even as little as 2 days per week can improve risk factors for heart disease and Type 2 Diabetes. Normal aging typically leads to a decline in hormones levels, which can results in the loss of lean muscle mass. This loss of muscle tissue can increase the risk of developing metabolic disorders such as Type 2 Diabetes. Resistance training can counter act the decline in lean muscle mass and decrease the risk of heart disease and Type 2 Diabetes. In this episode of The Dr. Rob Show… (../category/the-dr-rob-show/) * Discuss “plaque build up” and what that means in relation to heart disease. * Discuss the benefits of resistance training in addition to weight loss * Discuss how muscle tissue prefers to burn “fat” as opposed to sugar as an energy source. * Discuss how hormones decline with age and the positive impact resistance training can have on slowing that decline. * Discuss the effects resistance training vs. cardiovascular training. * Discuss specific types of resistance training based exercises.
