A N T ID E P R E S S A N T S DOUBLE AUTISM RISKAlthough the causes of autism are not fully understood, a review of more than
145,00 0 pregnancies, at the University of Montreal in Canada, has found that anti-
depressants can play a major role. Our study has established that taking antide-pressants during the second or third trimester of pregnancy almost doubles the risk
that the child will be diagnosed with autism by age 7, especially if the mother takes
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, often known by the acronym SSRIs, says
Anick Brard, PhD, co-author of the study, which was published in J M Ped iatrics.

SMARTER FATS
Q :ir st t h ey sa y b u t t er a nd eg g s a r e b a d , no w I h ea r t h ey r eg o o d . W h a t s t h e t r u t h ? Jaim eP.,Syracuse,NY
A:N utrition and dietary
advice are constantly
evolving,leaving consum ers
annoyed and confused.But
w ith allthe controversies
and debates about everything
from raw food to Paleo,theres
been one diet plan that just
about everyone has endorsedover the past 40 years: e
M editerranean Diet.
ere are a couple of
problem s,though,starting
w ith the fact that the so-called
M editerranean diet is a
catch-allterm that has never
been very w ell-de ned and
quanti ed. e M editerranean
pattern of eating tends to feature
a lot of legum es,vegetables,
sh,olive oil,and fruit,and isbelieved to be low in saturated
fat and anim alproducts but
w ho really know s w hat speci c
elem ents of the diet are res-
ponsible for the health bene ts?
W hats m ore,the health
bene ts m ay not be nearly as
huge and globalas w eve been
led to believe.A num ber of
studies have show n that the
M editerranean D iet beats the
heck out of the low -fat diet orthe typicalA m erican diet,but
honestly,thats setting the bar
pretty darn low just about
any diet w illbeat the Am erican
diet or the typicallow -fat diet.
SORTING FATFROM FICTIONW hich brings m e to m y
new est book,S mart F at.
Recently,a reporter asked
m e to describe in a few w ords
the prem ise of the book,
co-authored w ith Steven
M asley,M D ,LLC,the fulltitle
of w hich is S mart F at: Eat
M ore F at, Lose M ore Weight ,
Get H ealthy N ow Ithought
for a m om ent,and then
found m yself answ ering w ith
a phrase Ihadnt ever usedbefore,but w hich In ow think
sum s up the Sm art Fat
program very effectively:
M editerranean D iet 3.0.
e Sm art Fat program
builds on a lot of th e staples
of the M editerranean D iet
legum es,beans,vegetables,
sh,fruit but updates it
w ith the latest science on fat,
grains,and inflam m ation.
W e now know from threem ajor peer-review ed m eta-
analyses published in the last
ve years in prestigious journals
like the nnals of nternal e icine
and the A merican Journal of
C linical utrition that saturated
fat does not cause heart disease,
and that theres no reason
to avoid fat just because its
saturated (m ore on that in a
m om ent).W e also know that
inflam m ation is one of them ajor prom oters of every
m ade up of om ega-6 fats.W enow know that the balance
betw een om ega-3 and om ega-6
fats is criticalfor h um an
health. e idealratio betw een
the tw o is around 1:1,but
research sh ow s that our reli-
ance on vegetable oils for just
about everything has w ound
up producing a typicalintake
of 16:1 in favor of the pro-
inflam m atory om ega-6s.W hen
the ratio skew s heavily tow ardom ega-6 fats,as it does in the
typicalAm erican diet,it fans
the res of inflam m ation.
Finally,the Sm art Fat program
accepts the n otion of good
fat and bad fat, but de nes
those term s differently from
the w ay they are conventionally
de ned.Traditionally,w eve
com e to think of bad fats
as saturated fats,especially
saturated fats from anim als,
T h e b a la c e b et ween t h eint a k e o f o m eg a -3 a ndo m eg a - 6 f a t s is c r it ic a l

degenerative disease (from heartdisease to obesity to cancer)
and that over-consum ing tw o
w idely prom oted elem ents of
the M editerranean D iet
grains and vegetable oils is
like throw ing kerosene on the
res of inflam m ation.
GOING AGAINSTTHE GRAINSSo the Sm art Fat program is
not heavy on grains.It doesntprohibit them ,but it de nitely
cautions against overcon-
sum ption.Grains are generally
high-glycem ic,contributing to
horm onalim balance and insulin
resistance,and in the case
of the large num ber of people
w ho are gluten-sensitive or
intolerant m uch w orse.
e Sm art Fat program is
also not heavy on vegetable
oils,w hich is predom inantly

STIFF JOINTSAnyone with pain in the knees, hips, or back is well aware of
a problem. But even m ore subtle stiffn ess or achinessjust
enough to discourage a weekend h ike or tennis gamecan lead
to a dwindling spiral of deteriorating health.
W H T T O D O
If youre generally active, keep up your good habits. Otherwise,
find a starting point. If walking is uncomfortable or painful, try
water exerc ise or a stationary bi ke. Movement impr oves the flow
of blood and nutrients, lubricates joints, and makes them more
flexible. Resistance exercise that strengthens m uscles reduces
pressure on join tsstronger thigh muscles will make it easier
on kn ees, as an example. Yoga or Pi lates im proves flexibili ty. And
losing even a little weight can do wonders by reducing stress on
join ts.
Supplements can also help. Curcumin or boswellia reduceinflammation. Glucosamine, a component of cartilage, helps to
cushion joints. And MSM, especially when taken with glucos-
amine, relieves inflammation and pain .
UNWANTEDCURVES ere are certain places where
fat tends to deposit as we getolder, especially around the
middle. Muffi n tops can be
another undesirable develop-
ment, and overall weight gain
is not uncommon. Being less
active is one reason but theres
another natural mechanism at
play: muscle loss, up to 5 percent
per decade after age 30.
Less muscle means you burn
fewer calories, lose strength,
and get larger i n the wrongplaces, even i f your weight
stays the same (because fat
weighs less than muscle). e
only way to stop and r everse
the process is with exercise
that builds muscle: weight or
resistance trainin g.
H ormonal changes also
play a role. e human body
becomes less able to process
sugars and starches, which
leads to higher levels of bloodsugar and higher levels of
insulin , which promotes fat
storage and chronic inflam-
mation, and can lead to type 2
diabetes. is can also trigger
imbalances in sex hormones
among both women and
menand those contr ibute to
more unwanted curves.
Sometimes, the combination
of these changes is consid-
ered to be a slow metabolism.
eres some truth in that, but
it isnt inevitable and can be
reversed.
W H T T O D O
In addition to doing weight or
resistance training, eat more
lean protein, fatty fish such
as salmon, and non-starchy
vegetables, but fewer sugars
and starches. Cruciferous
vegetables, such as broccoli, are
especially good for balancing
hormones. Eat organic as
much as possible, as toxinsare infl ammatory and disr upt
hormones.
Switching to this type of
diet can help you lose weight.
Taking chromium, which
helps to keep blood sugar at
healthy levels, can make a diet
more effective, according to
H arry Preuss, MD, pr ofessor
at Georgetown University and
author of e Natural Fat-Loss
Pharmacy. Chromium ishelpful because it switches
your m etabolism, so that the
weight you lose is fat, not
muscle, he says.
Other good supplements
include fish oil, to reduce in-
flammation, and in dole-3-car-
binol (I3C), which is found in
cruciferous vegetables, to help
keep both womens and mens
hormones balanced.
