Simon Cowell has lost 60 lbs. through his new health regime.

The 60-year-old media mogul overhauled his lifestyle last year and committed to a diet of white meat, fruit, and vegetables, and can't believe the results he's been getting, as he claims he's managed to shed an impressive 60 lbs in the past 12 months.

He said: "I started this diet a year ago and I've lost 60 pounds."

Simon's been sticking to his diet whilst in lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic, but says he's always tempted to slip into old habits when his six-year-old son Eric - whom he has with his girlfriend Lauren Silverman - has a pizza for dinner.

He added: "I'm doing a bit of cooking. I'm exercising. Funny enough, more during this time as well, sticking to the diet.

"The only difficult thing is when Eric orders a pizza . . . that's the number one thing I miss."

And when he's not busy cooking, Simon has been spending time in the garden with his son, where they often camp overnight at the weekend.

Speaking to The Sun newspaper, he said: "We're camping on the weekends in the garden in tents. Lauren, the first time, at 11 o'clock said, 'I can't deal with this' . . . and I said 'No, we're staying outside'."

Meanwhile, the 'X Factor' creator previously said he can't believe how good he looks since losing weight, as he managed to shave several inches from his waistline.

He said in January: "The most dramatic period was the first month where most of the weight comes off and you look at yourself and think 'wow'. I used to be 36 inch waist and now I've lost four inches. I'm really happy now.

"You can drink this light beer but you've got to be sensible about quantities. I have loads more energy and feel great.

"All I do is avoid just red meat - white meat is fine - and I eat loads of vegetables, salads and drink this great beer. I'm on a diet but it doesn't feel like it now because the food I eat is really healthy and I don't find it tedious. If it's boring you won't stick to it."

Data unequivocally shows that being obese and/or having diet-related diseases is responsible for 90 percent of non-age-related hospitalizations from COVID-19.

Weve all read countless articles saying were pitted in a war against the coronavirus. We question the frequent use of war and battle when referring to disease mitigation, but if we accept these military terms, wed like to add collaborator to the discussion.

An example: In WWII, the German advance was aided by French collaborators who smoothed the way into their country by identifying weaknesses in French defenses.

In todays America, junk, processed and fast food, along with soda, are relentlessly hawked by corporations to an increasingly obese public. In other words, the excess calories, sugar, salt and fat that were eating and drinking are slowly killing us.

Now, theyre also lending a helping hand to COVID-19the new enemy.

The U.S. military, for whom words like war and battle are not metaphors, as they are above, is handicapped by the obesity epidemic. They have stated their current pool of potential recruits are so unhealthy, due to obesity and heart disease, that fitness standards were lowered in order to fill their ranks. A 2018 study, Unhealthy and Unprepared, concluded that overweight youth are having an impact on the militarys ability to maintain effectiveness. Currently one-third of 17- to 24-year-olds are ineligible to join because of their weight.

Data unequivocally shows that being obese and/or having diet-related diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes or heart disease, or the conditions that flow from these like kidney failure, is responsible for 90 percent of non-age-related hospitalizations from COVID-19. So, if it isnt bad enough that diabetes leads to amputations, blindness and dialysis, it also is a highly correlated factor for virus-related deaths.

Aside from the heartbreak of increased vulnerability to COVID-19, theres a crippling economic cost. In a truly scandalous situation, America now spends 21 percent of its health care dollars on obesity-related diseases.

A main one of which is the aforementioned diabetes. According to the American Diabetic Association, a third of Americans are either diabetic or prediabetic. The national cost of treatment in 2017 was more than $327 billion, up 26 percent from $245 billion in 2012.

According to the CDC, Chronic disease accounts for approximately 75 percent of the nations aggregate health care spending. In terms of public insurance, treatment ofchronic diseaseconstitutes an even larger proportion of spending96 cents per dollar for Medicare.

Even prominent bankers, not traditionally focused on issues beyond profit and loss, have raised the alarm. The May 3 Bank of America Global Research Paper on predicted post-COVID economic trends, states, [P]ublic health is the new national wealth. Stakeholders will increasingly focus on health-related ESG metrics; governments will come to appreciate health more as an economic resource.

Its not often that bankers and health care officials are on the same page, but in this case, they are. The National Association of Chronic Disease Directors has issued this statement: As the United States seeks ways to regain our economic footing and rebuild prosperity, all should be reminded of the simple but immensely important fact that the nations collective health bears both an economic and human cost. Poor health of a population can exert tremendous force on employment rates, interest costs and other tangible factors that ultimately affect the ability to maintain a strong global economic position.

Its not like we havent been warned. Medical experts have been trying to get us to wake up and smell the roasted vegetables and whole grains for years.

Sadly, however, when Michelle Obama championed her Lets Move initiative, which included a healthy diet for school children, she was ridiculed by conservatives and libertarians as pushing the nanny state. They were fine with pepperoni pizza, sloppy Joes and soda being on the menu. Recently, TVs Bizarre Foods host, Andrew Zimmern, in a video interview, decried the role the American diet is playing in COVID-19 morbidity. Too bad we didnt listen to the First Lady.

One explanation as to why we allow ourselves and our children to eat so poorly is hyperbolic discounting, our inability to see the long-term consequences of our short-term behavior. For example, if smoking caused cancer the next day, a lot less people would smoke. Its the same with food choices. The immediate pleasure of sugary sodas outweighs the possibly of dialysis a decade later.

Why would we steadfastly deny the obvious? Marion Nestle, Paulette Goddard Professor of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health, Emerita, at New York University and author of Food Politics, Soda Politics, The Unsavory Truth and many other books, told Worth, The coronavirus pandemic poignantly illustrates why we need food systems devoted as much or more to public health as they are to profit. Profit-making is what drives food companies to push junk foods on us as hard as they can and to lobby government to make sure they can do so with impunitywhat happens to human health be damned. If the pandemic teaches us anything, it is that we need a government that supports public health over corporate health.

Until public policy steps in, nonprofits, such as Wholesome Wave, are helping. Through their efforts with both nonprofits and corporations, fruits and vegetables have been made available to low-income Americans.

When the current crisis moderates and we catch our collective breaths, it will be a good time to look into what food is doing to make our society so health-compromised, so susceptible to new threats. From farmer to consumer, we cannot afford to continue weaponizing our diet against ourselves. Instead, we need our food policies to keep us safe. Business as usual should no longer apply. We must clearly see that allowing agribusiness to profit as they have takes a financial and human toll on all of us.

An indispensable guide to finance, investing and entrepreneurship.

Among individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D), adults are more likely to test positive for asymptomatic celiac disease (CD) than children and a gluten-free diet may increase postprandial glycemic levels, according to study results published in Diabetes Care.

Individuals with T1D are at increased risk for CD but many individuals go undiagnosed, as CD frequently presents without symptoms. The effects of a gluten-free diet in individuals with T1D and asymptomatic CD has not yet been determined.

To examine this, 2387 individuals with T1D aged 8 to 45 years (45.6% aged 18 years) were screened for asymptomatic CD. A total of 51 individuals who were found to have asymptomatic CD were randomly assigned to either a gluten-free or gluten-containing diet for 1 year. Asymptomatic CD was defined as having a tissue transglutaminase immunoglobulin A (TTG-IgA) level 30 CU and was further confirmed by a gastroenterologic biopsy with a Marsh score of 2. Dietary adherence was evaluated through TTG-IgA testing and quantification of dietary gluten intake every 3 months. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was measured at baseline and every 6 months during the dietary study, and all participants used continuous glucose monitoring during the study period.

Individuals aged 18 years were significantly more likely to have previously been screened for CD (P <.0001). Individuals aged >18 years had higher CD-seropositivity rates than younger patients (6.8% vs 4.7%; P =.035). A significant increase in HbA1c was observed in the gluten-free diet group at 12 months (+0.30%; 95% CI, 0.40-0.57; P =.028) compared with baseline, although no significant difference in HbA1c change was observed between groups. There were also no changes in the percentage of time spent in hypoglycemic, euglycemic, or hyperglycemic ranges observed over the 12-month period, but in the gluten-free diet group, postprandial glycemia was higher at both the 2-hour (+1.6 mmol/L; 95% CI, 0.7-2.6; P =.0015) and 4-hour (+1.5 mmol/L; 95% CI, 0.4-2.7; P =.0014) time points relative to premeal levels, whereas glucose levels did not significantly change and returned to premeal levels at the 4-hour time point in the gluten-containing diet group.

The researchers concluded that diabetes clinicians should be aware of CD as an important autoimmune comorbidity of type 1 diabetes that is frequently asymptomatic. In addition, clinical vigilance is warranted during dietary transition, as [treatment with a gluten-free diet] may impact short-term glycemic variability.

Future studies should include a larger sample size and evaluate the long-term effects of a gluten-free diet in individuals with asymptomatic CD and T1D, given potentially higher risks for microvascular and skeletal complications with CD.

A diet rich in fruits and vegetables given over a relatively short period of time was associated with significantly lower levels of markers for subclinical cardiac damage and strain in adults without preexisting cardiovascular disease (CVD), say researchers.

Observational studies show that a healthy diet is linked to a reduced risk for CVD events, leading many to advocate for stronger public policy to promote healthy food choices. For the findings, published in the journal, Annals of Internal Medicine, researchers from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Centre in the US, studied data and stored serum specimens for 326 participants of the original DASH trial to compare the effects of diets rich in fruits and vegetables with a typical American diet in their effects on cardiac damage, cardiac strain, and inflammation in middle-aged adults without known preexisting CVD.

The DASH diet is a lifelong approach to healthy eating thats designed to help treat or prevent high blood pressure (hypertension). The DASH diet plan was developed to lower blood pressure without medication in research sponsored by the US National Institutes of Health. It includes lots of whole grains, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products.

The DASH diet also includes some fish, poultry and legumes, and encourages a small amount of nuts and seeds a few times a week.The study found that after eight weeks, participants in both the fruits and vegetables and the DASH diet groups had significantly lower concentrations of the biomarkers for subclinical cardiac damage and strain compared with control group.

The authors hypothesize that dietary factors common to both the DASH and fruit-and-vegetable diets, such as higher amounts of potassium, magnesium, and fibre, may partly explain the observed effects. These findings strengthen recommendations for the DASH diet or increased consumption of fruits and vegetables as a means of optimising cardiovascular health, the researchers noted.

With the holy month of Ramadan getting over, it's time to reset our eating routines and food habits. After an intense 30-day period of abstaining from food and drink for 15 hours, dietitians say the transition to normal eating, drinking and sleeping routine should be done mindfully and in a balanced manner.

"Since our metabolic process undergoes a change because of the difference in eating schedules and timings, it is essential to ensure that you make a smooth transition from fasting into a regular dietary routine," cautioned Lama Sinjer, dietician at Prime Hospital.

"People who had their two meals in Ramadan - Suhoor and Iftar - will be able to make an easy transition in terms of metabolic rate and maintaining body weight. This is because those who skipped Suhoor and had just Iftar may now have issues with their metabolism since their body was used to only one meal a day. If they shift to three or four meals a day, they may have digestion issues and also may gain weight," she said.

The best option to make a smooth transition into a normal eating routine, Sinjer suggested, would be to stay hydrated and for the body to adapt, focus on a healthy diet that includes all food groups - carbohydrates, fats and proteins, fruits and vegetables and healthy grains.

"On the day of Eid, you can have one big meal, maybe like a family lunch, but eat in moderation. Try not to go overboard with eating sweets. Avoid too much variety, just eat one or two main dishes and avoid soft drinks and juices, rather focus on water," she said, reminding people to eat more mindfully.

Talking about the common mistakes people make after Ramadan, Ruba ElHourani, head dietitian at RAK Hospital, said: "Many people make the mistake of bringing a sudden shift in their eating habits soon after Ramadan, leading to digestive issues, weight gain, etc. We need to be very vigilant of our calorie intake when reverting to normal eating routine. Always remember that when we were fasting, our bodies have reduced the ability to consume larger amounts of food and high calories and the metabolism has been adjusted accordingly.

"Apart from overeating, a common mistake is the consumption of large doses of caffeine that can lead to serious health concerns such as dehydration," she added.

In order to prevent putting on weight, ElHourani advised people to introduce foods gradually into the diet by adding a snack or a small meal in the beginning and adjusting it to become three main meals eventually.saman@khaleejtimes.com

Six dos and don'ts to remember

Dos

> Beat the cravings for sweet with fresh and dried fruits like dates, figs and raisins

> Stay active by boosting metabolism through physical activity. Find time for exercise to avoid gaining weight and or putting back the weight that has been lost.

> Have the right combination of food to get as much benefit as possible. Balance your meals by combining foods from a variety of food groups

> Eat a lot of vegetables, fruits and choose healthier food over the saturated and trans fatty acid variety.

> Gradually return to normal eating habits by adding a meal or snack at a time to avoid putting a load on the stomach.

> Try to balance the meal using healthy cooking methods and alternating simple sugar with complex sugar that can fuel up the body for a longer time without impacting the blood sugar and calories consumed.

Don'ts:

> Consumption of high sugary and fatty meals should be restricted to the first day of Eid. Disturbing the stomach may lead to other health consequences.

> Consuming processed food rather than fresh healthy food varieties can also increase the chances of health comorbidities

> Avoid caffeine intake to prevent dehydration and convert to herbal drinks or decaf coffee.

> Do not burden the stomach with huge amounts of food; instead, eat small amounts more frequently.

> Avoid over consumption of saturated and trans-fatty acids such as fried food items and substitute them with healthy fats like raw nuts and avocados.

> Refrain from eating late at night as it burdens the stomach and take a longer time to digest

People love to hear good news about their bad habits. Unfortunately, there is none as far as our dietary habits are concerned. Lifestyle diseases have been increasing globally and according to one of the largest global health studies by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, dietary factor is the leading cause of this phenomenon.

Heart disease and diabetes are sky-rocketing in India and those affected are also the most vulnerable to catching the coronavirus. So, lets look at the dietary habits that are causing this epidemic in India.

Low fruits and vegetables intake

One would think that a country that has an ancient tradition of pranic foods and such a large vegetarian population would easily meet the World Health Organisation (WHO)-recommended criterion of consuming minimum five helpings of fruits and vegetables daily. Unfortunately, Indians, including those who can afford it, dont even come close to this. Studies also point out that vegetables are often overcooked in Indian households, which make them lose most of their nutrients. Isnt that true? Ive often had trouble identifying the vegetable in dishes because their gravy and masala is so thick and overpowering.

Add loads of vegetables to all your meals. (Photo: Reuters)

Tip:Start your day with a green smoothie, followed by fruits. A green smoothie can be made with one-third edible raw greens (try buying organic) blended with two-third pulpy fruits like bananas and apples, etc. Its the healthiest breakfast you can have. Incorporate a variety of veggies in anything you make - poha, oats, pulav, pizzas, etc and dont ever plan your lunch and dinner without a vegetable dish.

Try steaming the veggies first and toss them in a pan later with the masalas. Pick up some interesting baking recipes. As a rule, make sure that your cooking doesnt make the vegetables lose their colour and they dont become soggy.

Skewed Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio

Both are essential oils but its important to maintain a healthy ratio between the two. Omega 6 is naturally found in the right quantity in plants but is highly concentrated in vegetable oils. Omega 3 (ALA) is found in nuts and seeds while DHA and EPA are found in fish and sea algae. Both oils have contradictory effects. While high quantity of Omega 6 is highly inflammatory and has a direct link with various diseases, Omega 3 is anti-inflammatory and vital for the health of our cells, brain, joints, etc. The ideal ratio is 1:1, but a healthy ratio is 3:1. The modern fried food diet tends to have a ratio as high as 20:1. In India, it goes even higher because of our dependence on cooking oils and poor intake of healthy Omega 3.

Tip:Start by using a brush or spray for your pan. Graduate to cooking without oil. Its easy if you just change your mindset. Most veggies have water in them so they dont stick. Add water little by little if they stick. Gravy dishes that use tomatoes are particularly easy to make. Make sure you start consuming healthy nuts like walnuts, flax and chia seeds and fish oil or a sea algae-based (fishes get their omega 3 from sea algae) supplement for your Omega 3.

Dependence on refined grains

A comparison between heart disease in the US and India shows that while consumption of too much meat is a big cause of worry for Americans, for Indians, it is the dependence on refined grains. Whole grains when refined lose most of their fibre, minerals and vitamins. Brown/red rice or whole wheat flour is a rarity in Indian households. Maida is commonly used in all snacks, whether those packaged like biscuits or homemade like mathri. Worse, most of these snacks are deep fried. Even the so-called whole wheat bread that you find in most places is only 50 per cent wheat. Other grains that were so common earlier in India, have totally lost their appeal today.

Tip:There are organic whole wheat flour brands available today and some smaller local stores selling full bran aata. Use that for your rotis. Try replacing maida in all the snacks you make at home - mathris, namak pare, samosas, pizzas, etc with this and bake them. You can even bake your own bread with the best of ingredients. Brown rice can be used to make pulav, khichdi, even idlis. Start exploring and incorporating other grains like oats, barley, millets, etc. in your diet instead of depending on just one or two grains.

Ditch maida, now!(Photo: Reuters)

Too much salt

The daily recommended intake of sodium is just 1 teaspoon (5gms), but most Indians have too much salt in their meals, snacks, pickles, chutneys, etc. Salt consumption is directly linked to high blood pressure, which is the second-biggest cause for heart diseases.

Tip:Simply reduce salt in all foods, and gradually you will develop such a taste that anything too salty will become unpalatablefor you. The same happens with sugar too.

Excess of dairy

Dairy consumption has increased disproportionately over the last few decades, with the industry booming. Milk has no fibre, is high in saturated fat, has cholesterol, and is inflammatory. While it is rich in calcium, that calcium is not easily absorbable. More and more global research has been indicting dairy in different ways, especially for diseases like diabetes. WHO recommends that not more than 5-10% calories in a meal should come from saturated fat.

But these days, people are having multiple dairy products in a single meal - ghee in tadka, cream in cooking, paneer in place of vegetables, accompanied by curd, followed by a dessert like mithai or ice cream. In addition to this, there is the daily glass of milk.

Tip:Reduce your dairy intake by not combining products. Incorporate cashew cream in your cooking. Try making baked vegetables in white sauce or daal makhni with it. It is a great substitute for cream and you can make delicious cheese with it too. Cashews have no cholesterol, have healthy poly and mono saturated fats and are packed with several minerals. Try out nut butters like almond and peanut. Avoid or reduce ghee, cheese and butter. You dont want clogged arteries.

Intermittent fasting is a way of losing weight that favours flexibility over calorie counting. It restricts the time you are allowed to eat, which reduces calorie intake by limiting opportunities to eat. Thats the theory, at least.

A popular version of intermittent fasting is the 5:2 diet, which involves eating a very low-calorie diet (about a quarter of usual calorie intake) for two days each week and unrestricted eating on the other five days. This approach has worked well for some people, but not everyone. In our latest study, we found that people cheat on their intermittent fasting diet, without realising it.

Conducted over three days, the study aimed to find out how eating and physical activity changed around a period of calorie restriction.

A group of male participants completed two trials. On the first trial day, they were told they would have a very low-calorie diet (about 700 calories) the following day. Throughout the rest of the day, we tracked how much the participants ate and we assessed their hunger before and after each meal. Their physical activity was also monitored throughout the day.

The next day, participants ate the very low-calorie diet, and we monitored their physical activity. The morning after completing the low-calorie diet day, we measured their food intake at an unrestricted breakfast and assessed their hunger before and after the meal.

Each participant also completed a control trial that followed the same method. During the control trial, participants ate a typical diet (about 2,800 calories) instead of a very low-calorie diet.

We found that participants ate 6% more on the first day of the study and 14% more at the unrestricted breakfast on the low-calorie diet trial. This was despite hunger levels before and after each meal being similar to the control trial. This suggests participants ate more because they knew food intake would be restricted the following day, rather than because they felt hungrier.

Physical activity was also 11% lower the day before eating the low-calorie diet, and 18% lower while eating the low-calorie diet.

Interestingly, low-intensity physical activity, such as washing the dishes, which tends to be spontaneous behaviour rather than consciously planned activities, was the most affected component of physical activity. We found changes in eating and physical activity behaviour occur before, during and after a day of low-calorie dieting. These behavioural changes reduce the likelihood of intermittent fasting leading to weight loss.

For a diet to lead to weight loss, calories burned must exceed calories consumed to produce a calorie deficit. Intermittent fasting diets assume that the large calorie deficit produced by fasting or very low-calorie dieting is not recovered during the unrestricted period, so the calorie deficit is preserved. But our study shows that eating a little more and reducing spontaneous physical activity may be enough to recover almost half of this calorie deficit. The calorie deficit may also be reduced further at subsequent meals after a very low-calorie diet day.

Earlier studies support our findings. Skipping breakfast for six weeks was shown to reduce physical activity and increase calorie intake at later meals. This was enough to fully compensate for calories skipped at breakfast. This raises the question: is fasting or severe calorie restriction worth the sacrifice?

Weight loss from any diet is always likely to be lower than expected. Compensatory mechanisms defend against a calorie deficit far more strongly than a calorie surplus. In scientific studies of intermittent fasting, participants are often guided by a dietitian on how many calories they should eat on the unrestricted days. Even with this support, participants in these studies still lose less weight than would be expected if the calorie deficit had been fully preserved.

Our study highlights what and when compensatory behaviours occur. This information can be used to improve the effectiveness of intermittent fasting diets. Being more mindful when eating before and after a period of calorie restriction and incorporating exercise into diet plans, could help increase the likelihood of intermittent fasting leading to weight loss.

Intermittent fasting is not a miracle diet, but some people may benefit from its flexibility, and with a few minor adjustments, it could be even more effective.
