Research Spotlight: Is a High-Carbohydrate Diet the Best Way to Decrease Risk of Cardiovascular Disease?

The Tsimane are an ancestral population who live in the rainforest of Bolivia. They source food from a combination of horticulture and foraging.

Another nearby group, the Moseten, are genetically similar to the Tsimane. This group is more modernized than the Tsimane, but not to the degree…

Special Issue! Keto: The definitive guide

Available now! (in stores only)

110+ pages
20 keto recipes
$11.99US/$13.99CAN

In this special issue, we dig deep into a single important topic: the ketogenic diet. Often confused with Paleo (which is not inherently low-carb), keto is currently an incredibly popular diet with a couple hundred thousand searches for it through Google each month. Like most trending topics, however, there’s a lot of bad information about keto out there—some of which can be pretty dangerous.

In this issue, we aim to sort real information from Internet sensation so that folks who are interested in a ketogenic diet can decide for themselves whether it’s the best choice for them. We look at the pros and cons of the diet, as well as its potential applications for cancer treatment and prevention, longevity, brain health and cognitive function, women’s health, and athletic performance. Plus, we break down the diet for different lifestyles and genetic makeups to help you determine whether keto is something that may potentially help you reach your goals.

As we’re sure longtime readers of Paleo Magazine already know, diets are extremely individual, and keto is no different. What works for one person may not work for someone else, and vice versa. Let’s not forget that, for every person who has found success with a high-fat/low-carb diet, there’s another who’s thrived with a low-fat/high-carb diet.

However one thing remains true no matter what dietary regimen we decide to follow: We must fully commit. To reap the benefits of any diet—and, more importantly, to avoid injury and illness—one should do diligent research, carefully experiment, and possibly even enlist a professional to make sure the diet is a healthy choice for their particular lifestyle and health. Without taking these steps, it’s very difficult to determine whether a specific diet truly works for us as individuals.

Our hope is that this issue will be a good first step for you in that research. The information in these pages provides a wide range of information on keto—the good stuff and the not-so-good stuff—that should help you determine whether it’s something that appeals to you and is ideal for your goals and current health, and whether you may want to seek out a professional to help you navigate it.

Weedkiller Roundup Found in Kids’ Breakfast Cereals

Whoo boy . . . a new round of tests by the Environmental Working Group found the weedkiller glyphosate, more commonly known as Roundup, in every single breakfast cereal sample tests. That’s 28 different cereals!

From the EWG:

The tests detected glyphosate in all 28 samples of products made with conventionally grown oats. All but two of the 28 samples had levels of glyphosate above EWG’s health benchmark of 160 parts per billion, or ppb.

Products tested by Anresco Laboratories in San Francisco included 10 samples of different types of General Mills’ Cheerios and 18 samples of different Quaker brand products from PepsiCo, including instant oatmeal, breakfast cereal and snack bars. The highest level of glyphosate found by the lab was 2,837 ppb in Quaker Oatmeal Squares breakfast cereal, nearly 18 times higher than EWG’s children’s health benchmark.

Fermented Dairy Products May Protect Against Heart Attacks, According to New Study

A new study out of Finland has found that men who eat large amounts of fermented dairy products are at lower risk for coronary heart disease than men who eat only small amounts. Also noteworthy is that consumption of non-fermented dairy products was associated with a higher risk of heart disease, which tracks with the Paleo principle of avoiding most, but not necessarily all, dairy.

More from the abstract:

After adjusting for potential confounders, those in the highest (v. lowest) intake quartile of fermented dairy products had 27 % (95 % CI 5, 44; P-trend=0·02) lower risk of CHD. In contrast, those in the highest intake quartile of non-fermented dairy products had 52 % (95 % CI 13, 104; P-trend=0·003) higher risk of CHD. When analysed based on fat content, low-fat (<3·5 % fat) fermented dairy product intake was associated with lower risk (hazard ratio in the highest quartile=0·74; 95 % CI 0·57, 0·97; P-trend=0·03), but high-fat fermented dairy and low-fat or high-fat non-fermented dairy products had no association. These results suggest that fermented and non-fermented dairy products can have opposite associations with the risk of CHD.
