Question 1

wholemeal bread replaced white bread in nutritional value. now wholegrain bread has taken over.  is there a lot of difference between the last two?

Accepted Answer

Wholemeal is the: term used in the UK for wholegrain; it's the same thing.  To maximize your nutritional intake you might consider choosing multi-grain bread.  The less processed and the wider the spectrum of color and nutrition the better.  Peace and good health.

Question 2

the low carb breads/bagels, i looked at the nutrition labels & the calories listed do not include those from all the grams of fiber in there. is this accurate?? do calories from fiber really not count? or are they just lying to make you think so

Accepted Answer

Keep it simple: Consider fiber as the equivalent of sawdust. Since you are not a termite, you don't have the enzymes needed to turn this natural fiber into fuel, so it does not count as calories.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Question 5

45 yo male, exercise/nutrition fanatic. finally getting more than a few gray hairs. is there any nutritional or topical way to restore color?

Accepted Answer

Not yet!: Technically hair coloring is a topical solution but even as we begin to crack the secrets of cellular aging we've learned very little about loss of hair pigment . A better solution revolves around self image and how you truly appear to others. Don't underestimate the attraction to intelligent, strong, fit, wise, &amp; distinguished appearing men. For many, lack of at least some grey is a deal breaker.

Question 6

what basic considerations should a patient taking antipsychotics have regarding its diet/nutrition? (very interested in nutritional psychiatry)

Accepted Answer

Diet/nutrition: Hi, great question! If the antipsychotics are for schizophrenia, here's an article on nutritional considerations: http://www.nutritionmd.org/health_care_providers/psychiatric/schizophrenia_nutrition.html. Generally speaking, weight gain is common on these medications so being under the guidance of a nutritionist is a great place to start. Hope this is helpful. Take good care

Question 7

what are the basic daily nutritional requirements?

Accepted Answer

400 charact not enuf: Too detailed to give full answer here. In brief, adequate fluid, protein calories, fat, carbohydrate (macronutrients), as well as essential vitamins and minerals (we don't make them, need them for growth, development, repair) which need to come from diet. About 40+ nutrients all told. Easily available info online; just google your question (get more specific re: age, sex, preg, etc-differs for all.

Question 8

what are the nutritional needs for adults every day?

Accepted Answer

Varies!: There is too great a difference between the sexes, pregnancy, the young and old, and those with certain illnesses, and for those even on certain drugs. Their is a new field called nutrogenomics, which has identified vast differences between vitamin needs in humans. The most common needs: 8 glasses of water; 1g of protein per 2 lbs of body weight; and 20-24 grams of fiber for adults.

Question 9

are those ingredients and nutritional facts in soft drinks are real?

Accepted Answer

Probably: Along with tort liability for a false label, there's also laws against false labels that are enforced often enough to make these reliable. Soda pop is primarily marketing, with sugar or artificial sweetener, carbonated water, flavoring, maybe caffeine, dyes and preservatives. Sometimes they can hit the spot though there's nothing especially either nutritious or risky here.

Question 10
