Feature: Nutrition experts say rootcrops, corn
help prevent various diseases
By Mary Ann R. Devanadera
Ever wonder what rootcrops and corn can do to
our body?
Rootcrops and corn are good sources of
carbohydrates which can be included in the diet to meet the energy and nutrient
requirements of the body.
Rootcrops also contain dietary fiber, vitamin C,
calcium, phosphorus and iron.
Examples of rootcrops locally available are sweet
potatoes, purple yam, taro, cassava and potatoes.
Corn, on the other hand, is also a good source
of dietary fiber, B-vitamins, ascorbic acid, folate and phosphorus. Popular
varieties of corn are white and yellow.
A study conducted by the Food and Nutrition
Research Institute of the Department of Science and Technology (FNRI-DOST)
determined the effects of local root crops in lowering cholesterol levels among
humans with moderately-raised cholesterol levels.
The study showed that eating kamote and cassava
significantly decreased the total cholesterol levels of adults. Specifically,
cassava was shown to have significantly decreased LDL-cholesterol levels.
The study concluded that rootcrops, due to their
dietary fiber content, could have a significant role in the reduction of lipid
biomarkers.
Another study by the FNRI-DOST explained that
dietary fiber that is fermented in the large intestine (or colon) binds with
toxins and is excreted in the feces. Toxins in the colon contribute to the
formation of tumors and cancer.
Folate present in corn is good for the heart
because it lowers the level of homocysteine, an amino acid responsible for
damaging the blood vessels and increasing the blood clotting, which may lead to
heart attack.
Corn also contains carotenoid
beta-cryptoxanthin, which aids in lowering the chances of lung cancer.
Other health benefits from corn include the
increase in memory levels due to thiamin which is important in brain cell
functions, and together with panthothenic acid, helps in energy production and
stress reduction.
Glycemic index is the individual’s glucose
response to a food as compared to a reference food and tells whether and how a
food will raise blood sugar levels.
Rootcrops and the white variety of corn have low
glycemic index at less than 60, which means that they are beneficial in the
proper control and management of diabetes mellitus and in maintaining normal
weight.
Message 5 of the Nutritional Guidelines for
Filipinos (NGF), developed by a technical working group (TWG) headed by the
FNRI-DOST, states that one should eat more vegetables, fruits, and root crops.
In the Daily Nutritional Guide for lactating women, it is suggested that they
consume 6-7 servings of rice, corn, rootcrops, and their substitutes.
Root crops and corn have a lot of nutritional
and health benefits, so why not include them in your daily diet?

Feature: Cholesterol, is it "good" or
"bad" for health?
By Ma. Susana O. Encarnacion
Tired from work and quite hungry on her way
home, Candy stops at a nearby food chain to get a burger and a can of soft
drinks. Inside the bus, she starts eating and says to herself it will suffice
for her dinner. She's too tired to take her supper anyway, so she'd rather
sleep when she arrives home.
Sounds familiar? The busy world of today
sometimes pushes people to take unhealthy food alternatives instead of
nutritious meals.
Foods from fast food chains often offer a quick
fill-in for hungry stomachs but they are often not healthy.
It is no surprise then that the prevalence of
hypercholesterolemia increased significantly from 4.0% in 1998 to 8.5% in 2003
according to the National Nutrition and Health Survey of 2003 (NNHeS 2003)
conducted by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute, Department of Science
and Technology (FNRI-DOST) in collaboration with the Department of Health (DOH)
and 14 medical specialty societies led by the Philippine Lipid Society (PLS).
Hypercholesterolemia, is a condition when the
level of total cholesterol in the blood becomes abnormally high at 240 mg/dL or
higher. A total cholesterol of below 200 mg/dL and high density lipoprotein
(HDL) cholesterol of more than or equal to 60 mg/dL are considered desirable.
In contrast, low HDL cholesterol levels lower than 40 mg/dL) may result in a
greater risk of heart disease. In general, low density lipoprotein (LDL)
cholesterol is considered high if it is more than 160 mg/dL. On the other hand,
the desirable level of LDL depends on the presence or absence of heart disease
and other risk factors.
What then is cholesterol? Cholesterol is a
substance found among the fats (lipids) in the bloodstream and in all cells of
the body. It is normal to have cholesterol. It used for tissue formation,
metabolism and hormone production. It is, therefore, essential for the normal
function of the body. The body gets cholesterol by producing some of it. The
rest come from diet particularly from animal products such as meats, poultry,
eggs, butter, cheese and whole milk.
In order for cholesterol to be transported in
the blood, the molecule has to attach itself to a lipoprotein molecule. HDL
cholesterol is carried away from tissues to the liver to be metabolized and
eliminated. LDL, on the other hand, is carried to the tissues where it may be
deposited and stored. Too much LDL cholesterol can predispose to clogging of
the arteries. If the blood flow to the heart muscle is blocked, a heart attack
can occur. If the blood flow to certain parts of the brain is affected, on the
other hand, a stroke results.
What foods are cholesterol-rich and how does a
person limit consumption?
Cholesterol is only found in animal foods. Food
from plants are said to be almost entirely cholesterol-free. Foods which have
high cholesterol content include: organ meats (like liver, kidney and brain) as
well as shellfishes (such as crabs, lobsters, oysters, shrimps and clams).
Cheese, eggs, lard and other animal fats are
likewise rich in cholesterol. If a person has his blood tested and finds that
he has high blood cholesterol level, limiting his intake of cholesterol-rich
foods alone, however, will not guarantee lowering his blood cholesterol. High
blood cholesterol level is related to a number of factors like heredity, being
overweight and inactive and having too much saturated fat in the diet.
Saturated fat intake has much greater influence
on blood cholesterol levels than cholesterol intake. Saturated fats are found
in animal foods such as butter, fatty meats and poultry, whole milk, cheese and
cream, as well as lard and saturated oils. The main dietary modification
therefore to lower serum cholesterol level, is to limit the intake of saturated
fat in the diet. Fat in meats and chicken are likewise rich in
saturated fats.
How can a person limit the intake of cholesterol
and saturated fats while eating animal products?
The following are some suggestions: Eat fish
more often than meat or poultry; Limit the intake of egg yolk to two to three
times a week; Remove skin of poultry. Trim fat from meat and poultry;
Occasionally replace animal foods with dried beans, peas and legumes; Increase
intake of fruits and vegetables to five servings a day; Roast meat on a rack to
allow meat fat to drip out during cooking; and Read labels to select foods
lower in cholesterol and saturated fat.
So, the next time you pass by a food chain or
any convenience store, think twice before you order and feast on your favorite
burgers and fries. Remember that what you take in your body will take its toll
on your health and well-being. Eat healthy and enjoy a longer life.

Feature: Lose weight naturally
By Josefina T. Gonzales
One of the most engaging and exhausting “wars”
being fought by Pinoys today is on obesity.
Results of the 7th National Nutrition Survey by
the Food and Nutrition Research Institute of the Department of Science and
Technology (FNRI-DOST) revealed that there has been a significant increase in
the prevalence of overweight and obese among adults.
Pinoys are trying all kinds of methods of weight
loss, from pills to diet drinks, exercise and good eating, to dangerous medical
procedures.
While many of these methods may be successful,
being able to lose weight naturally is truly the safest way to meet a weight
goal and have a body that is fit and healthy.
However, the ability to lose weight naturally
takes some time.
What is the secret to natural weight loss?
The secret to losing weight naturally all comes
down to making some simple lifestyle choices.
Such choices may include a small change in the
diet by adding healthier foods like fresh fruits and vegetables, fish and dairy
products like milk, while cutting out excess fats, sugars and salt, and
engaging in some physical activities like brisk walking, jogging and swimming
in the daily routine.
Managing stress means an eight-hour sleep
everyday which helps increase metabolism, allows food to be digested faster,
and provides more energy.
There are numerous weight-loss plans that are
effective because they are built on some strategies for permanent weight
management.
Here are some strategies for successful weight
loss:
- Start your day with a healthy breakfast that
includes low fat milk, boiled egg, whole grain wheat bread, cereals and fruits.
Many overweight people skip breakfast. Start living life like a thin person,
and make breakfast a healthy habit.
- Eat a variety of foods everyday! No single
food can provide all the necessary nutrients that your body needs. Consume more
fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Refrain from consuming processed foods
like hotdogs, tocino or longganisa.
- Eat with a sense of purpose: savor the flavors
and engage your senses so that you truly acknowledge what you are eating. Avoid
mindless munching that happens while you cook, drive or watch television.
- Control your portions. Successful dieters
don’t super size their meals.
- Don’t try to manage your stress with food.
Many people eat in response to stress. Unfortunately, food does not help you
cope with stress. It simply adds calories to your daily food intake. Find a
more effective alternative.
- Read labels to determine the healthiest food
options. Pay attention to the serving size and nutrient content like calories,
fat, sodium and sugars.
- Stay motivated! It is easy to fall off the
wagon, but when you have a buddy to help and support you, it is easier to brush
yourself off and get back on the plan.
If you lose weight naturally, you’re rebuilding
your body naturally from the inside out instead of just making some cosmetic
changes to the exterior.
Good nutrition and healthy lifestyle lead to a
longer and happier life and losing weight naturally will help you achieve that
goal.

Feature: Drink water, be healthy
By Imelda Angeles-Agdeppa
Water is the most abundant component in the body
since it makes up 70-75 percent of our total body weight. It aids in digestion,
absorption, transport and utilization of electrolytes and other nutrients. It
also helps maintain body temperature and excretes waste products from the
lungs, skin and kidneys. Furthermore, it is considered as the most essential of
all nutrients.
Our body needs to be sufficiently supplied with
water to replace the loss of water in urine, sweat, perspiration, feces, as
well as through other body processes that cannot be seen. Not supplying enough
water in the body can affect bodily function and can lead to dehydration and
also even to death. With this, it is just right to say that "water gives
life" or without water there could be no life."
Drinking only when thirsty is not a good idea!
Don't wait until you are thirsty to decide to drink because by the time you are
thirsty, your body is already dehydrated. Fluid replacement should be a daily
plan.
The daily fluid requirements will vary with the
environmental conditions, clothing, intensity and duration of exercise, and
other activities. Based on the 2000 Nutritional Guidelines for Filipinos
developed by a technical working group led by the Food and Nutrition Research
Institute of the Department of Science and Technology (FNRI-DOST), water or
fluid requirement ranges from 10 milliliters per kilogram (ml/kg) of body
weight for infants to 25 milliliters per kilogram body weight for adults which
is about 3 glasses of fluids for infants and 6-8 glasses for adults.
You can also get fluids from fruits, vegetables,
and other beverages like fruit juices, fortified drinks and flavored sports
drink, which provide additional vitamins, especially vitamin C.
To be healthy, get yourself a glass of water and
start hydrating your body. Drink plenty of water!

Feature: Diabetic Prevalence Increases with Age
By Imelda Angeles Agdeppa
Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic
diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because the body does
not produce enough insulin, or because cells do not respond to the insulin that
is produced.
Insulin is produced by the pancreas and is being
used by cells to utilize sugar for energy production.
The classical symptoms for diabetes mellitus are
frequent urination, increased thirst and increased hunger.
Diabetes has two main types, Types 1 and 2. Type
1 diabetes results from the body's failure to produce insulin and requires the
person to inject insulin. Type 2 diabetes results from insulin resistance, a
condition in which cells fail to use insulin properly, sometimes combined with
an absolute insulin deficiency.
The causes of diabetes are attributed to both
genetics and environmental factors such as obesity and lack of exercise.
The 7TH National Nutrition Survey (NNS) conducted
by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute of the Department of Science and
Technology (FNRI-DOST) reported that the prevalence of high fasting blood sugar
(FBS) in the Philippines is 4.8 percent, based on the average FBS of more than
126 milligrams per deciliter.
Fasting blood sugar is a blood test that
determines the amount of glucose in the blood and is mainly used in screening
for pre-diabetes or diabetes.
In people already with diabetes, blood glucose
monitoring with frequent intervals is important to manage the condition.
Data from the NNS showed that the prevalence of
diabetes mellitus (DM) increases with age. Among young adults 20-29 years old,
DM prevalence is as low as 0.4 percent, increasing at 3.2 percent among adults
30-39 years old. This nearly doubles at 5.7 percent among the 40-49 years old,
then to 9.0 percent among 50-59 years old. DM prevalence is highest among older
persons 60-69 years old at 9.1 percent.
The prevalence of hyperglycemia (or high FBS
level) increased from 3.4 percent in 2003 to 4.8 percent in 2008.
Currently, the use of Hb1C (or glycosylated
hemoglobin test) is one of the best assessments to determine diabetes which is
a form of hemoglobin measurement primarily to identify the average plasma
glucose concentration over prolonged periods of time.
In late adulthood, foods need to be chosen
carefully to ensure adequate nutrition without excess consumption of calories
since physiological changes that accompany aging may affect nutrition.
There is actually no treatment for diabetes
mellitus, though it can be controlled and still be prevented with a proper diet
and a healthy lifestyle.
A diabetic requires a lot of time and commitment
in controlling the blood sugar through maintaining and achieving desirable body
weight by eating the right type of food at the right time which are important
in reducing the risk of complication of this disease.
A diabetic diet is a must to have a healthy
eating plan that is high in nutrients, low in fat, and moderate in calories.
Inclusion of foods rich in fiber in the diet
such as oats, cereals, legumes, wholegrain products, dried beans, peas,
lentils, fruits, vegetables will also help in blood sugar control and thus may
reduce the risk of diabetes.
A healthy lifestyle must be encouraged, such
that smoking and excessive alcohol drinking should be avoided.
Moreover, it is suggested that patients with
diabetes start physical activities such as walking 20 minutes three to four
times a week, then gradually increasing this to 30 minutes. Physical activities
should be something genuinely enjoyed so that it becomes a lifetime habit.

Cebuano news: Palasyo pabilin nga malaumon nga
ipasar sa mga senado ang sin tax reform bill
Ni Susil D. Ragas
SURIGAO CITY, Nob. 7 (PIA) – Ang MalacaΓ±ang
pabilin naglaom nga ipasar sa mga senador ang sin tax reform bill karong tuiga
tungod sa national interest ug public health.
“We remain hopeful that the sin tax measures
will be given due consideration by our senators. It is obviously in everybody’s
national interest to keep looking at the sin tax measure and to see what good
it can do for the health sector,” si Deputy Presidential spokesperson Abigail
Valte miingon atol sa press conference didto sa Malacanang kagahapon.
Senators expects Sen. Franklin Drilon to convene
within the week an urgent meeting of the Committee on Ways and Means to quickly
adopt a new report endorsing higher sin taxes on cigarettes and alcoholic
drinks. Drilon is the current chair of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means.
Ang mga Senador nagdahom nga tigumon ni Senator
Franklin Drilon karong semanaha ang Committee on Ways and Means aron makahimo
og bag-ong report pagduso og taas nga sin taxes sa sigarilyo ug alcoholic
drinks. Si Drilon maoy kasamtangang chairman sa Senate Committee on Ways and
Means.
Matud ni Valte ang pagpasar sa sin tax reform
bill gikinahanglan aron ang gobyerno aron mapun-an ang kakulangon sa badyet
labi na ang sa health sector. Matud pa niya nga ubos sa gisugyot nga 2013
national budget, ang gobyerno migahin og P54-bilyon alang sa health services.
Ang kwarta nga makolekta gikan sa sin taxes pagagamiton
aron itukod og dugang mga health facilities, rural health units, district
hospitals, ug uban pang mga pasilidad.
Gamiton usab kini alang sa pagbayad sa mga
premiums alang sa expanded coverage sa PhilHealth, tungod kay gilakip na karon
sa gobyerno pag cover ang mga indigent patients, matud ni Valte.
Kalabot na sa mga pagduha-duha nga ang maong
balaod moresulta og dugang mga kabanta-onan ang mosigarilyo ug moinom sa
ilomnong makahubog nga maoy nasinati sa laing mga nasod. Si Valte miingon nga
seguradong ekonsiderar sa mga magbabalaod ang maong isyu sa higayon nga mosugod
na sila sa ilang deliberasyon.
Pipila usab ka mga grupo miingon nga posible nga
ang mga criminal syndicates mihimo na lamang og smuggling tungod sa taas nga
buwis sa sigarilyo ug bino, apan matud pa ni Valte nga ang maong mga kabalaka
pwede masolusyon sa balaod.
Ang administrasyong Aquiino nagtinguha nga
makakuha og P60 bilyon sa matag tuig gikan sa dugang nga buwis sa mga
produktong sigarilyo ug bino. (PIA-Surigao del Norte)
