Women's Calorie Calculator - Good Resource
As I was searching for some information for a diabetes education class that I am preparing for, I found a great resource to calculate calorie needs and to help you to determine how much you need to increase or decrease your calorie intake to loose or gain weight. This tool also includes customized recommendations for calculating the number of calories you can burn if you exercise.
If you have other great tools that you use for yourself or patients who are working to maintain and gain an healthy lifestyle, please share them!
Thank you!

Wellness coaching is where the employment is | ZDNet
What we have lacked in America’s health system is lifelong communication. We get it when we’re young from our pediatrician, our teachers, our parents. But we lose access to it, we make mistakes, and many of us don’t even start to change until it’s too late.
Change that, and you will not only bend the health care cost curve, you are going to bring a lot of people into a fulfilling lifetime career. Read more at: Wellness coaching is where the employment is | ZDNet

Brain cells -- not lack of willpower -- determine obesity, study finds
Article Reads: 'We discovered that a high-fat diet caused brain cells to become insulated from the body, rendering the cells unable to detect signals of fullness to stop eating," Professor Cowley said.
"Secondly, the insulation also created a further complication in that the body was unable to detect signals to increase energy use and burn off calories/kilojoules."

Weight Loss Weapon -- Carb-cutting Enzyme Stopped By Bean Extract, Endocrinologists Say
http://www.sciencedaily.com/videos/2007/0404-weight_loss_weapon.htm
UCLA researchers have found an extract in white kidney beans may help the body stop carbs from breaking down into sugars. A digestive enzyme in the body normally acts like scissors, literally cutting starches into little sugars. Phase 2 stops the enzyme from cutting, so the starches stay in the body as long fibers and are burned off quicker. Patients in the clinical studies who took Phase 2 lost body fat, not lean muscle.
