As soon as you start eating, the process is halted. Insulin now inhibits the breakdown of fatty acids, leading your body to burn the sugars you've just ingested. The fat burning stage is over.

If you think about it, this all makes perfect evolutionary sense. When food wasnt as readily available as it is today, holding on to stored body fat was crucial for our survival. We evolved to last a long time between meals.

Today, food is in almost constant supply but our bodies are still physiologically the same as they were tens of thousands of years ago. If we eat all day, we never tap into our bodies natural ability to burn stored body fat for energy.

Studies demonstrate that a bout of aerobic exercise performed in the fasted as compared with non-fasted state increases the reliance on fat and subsequently reduces the reliance on carbohydrate as fuel during exercise, with several publications showing that fasted exercise oxidises (burns) around 20-30pcmore fat.

If you're exercising to lose weight, it's a no brainer.

Yuh still holdin me up, Daddy? I yelled over my shoulder, as dusk fell on a Belfast park. Uh-huh, came a faint reply. Peeking behind, I realised, with a surge of exhilaration, that I was on my own and that Daddys economy with the truth had eased me through one of lifes rites of passage: learning to ride a bike.

And what better time to discover the joys of cycling than during Irelands National Bike Week, which takes place from June 10th to June 18th. Perhaps, having attended Cycling Irelands recent Bike Fest on June 11th, youre keen to experience life on two wheels, and Cycling Irelands communications officer Heather Boyle is especially keen to share with The Irish Times some biking benefits.

Benefits of cycling

Socially, she says, cycling offers great opportunities to meet like-minded people from all walks of life. With over 400 cycling clubs in the country, theres bound to be a group for you. Cycling offers something to everyone: from adrenalin-fuelled racing to social touring, to a head-clearing cycle home after a hard days work.

And Boyle reminds me that Ireland has some of the most beautiful country roads in the world, with relatively low levels of traffic: On the bike, she enthuses, you see the country at a slower pace and from a different perspective. And from an environmental point of view cyclings a zero-emission activity, so while enjoying its health and fun benefits, youre also helping reduce our carbon footprint.

Cycling and health

The health benefits conferred by cycling are probably best explained by a leading surgeon for whom pedal power proved life-changing. Prof Chris Oliver who is on Twitter @CyclingSurgeon, is the professor of physical activity for health at the University of Edinburgh, and consultant orthopaedic surgeon at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. I cycled as a schoolboy, Oliver told The Irish Times, and as a medical student, I rode all over London. But later I became obese, weighed over 28 stone, developed Type 2 diabetes and couldnt cycle. However, I underwent gastric band surgery and got fit again; so fit that in 2013, I rode 3,500 miles across US from Los Angeles to Boston. The Type 2 diabetes disappeared when I lost weight.

Regular cycling, says Oliver, is a great way to increase longevity: Middle-aged people who cycle regularly typically enjoy the fitness level of someone 10 years younger, and gain two years in life expectancy; and cycling, combined with a healthy diet, helps control weight and lower the risk of diabetes. It raises the metabolic rate, builds muscle, burns body fat, and is a comfortable form of exercise which you can vary and build up slowly. A daily half-hour bike ride burns nearly five kilograms of fat over a year.

Oliver also notes that cycling can reduce ones risk of contracting cardiovascular disease, with regular cycling stimulating heart, lungs and circulation, reducing the risk of stroke, high blood pressure and heart attack: In addition, exercise reduces your risk of colon and breast cancer, and research has found cycling reduces the risk of bowel cancer. For bones and joints, he says, cycling improves co-ordination, strength and balance and may help prevent falls and fractures: Being low-impact, with little stress on joints, cycling is an ideal form of exercise for osteoarthritis. Around 70 per cent of body weight goes through the saddle and handlebars instead of your ankles; and the bigger you are, the more important that is!

As for mental health, Conditions like depression, stress and anxiety, explains Oliver, can be reduced by regular cycling. This is due to the effects of the exercise, producing endorphins, and because riding a bike can bring great enjoyment.

Boyle agrees: The mental health benefits are phenomenal, as highlighted, for example, by the huge support for Irelands annual Cycle Against Suicide event, which took place from April 23rd to May 6th this year, and whose message was Its okay not to feel okay; and its absolutely okay to ask for help.

With Cycling Ireland the countrys national governing body for cycling boasting a membership of over 29,000, which has grown by 720 per cent over the last decade, it is clear that the benefits conferred by cycling on all age groups, from primary schoolchildren to retirees, are being enjoyed by increasing numbers of people.

So come on; get on your bike and start cycling: its a life-enriching experience.

Waterford Greenway: Irelands longest greenway was officially opened on the March 25th with 46km of a dedicated cycling and walking trail along the old railway line. The trail stretches from Waterford City to Dungarvan, taking in 11 bridges, three viaducts and a 400m tunnel, and the route is a mix of coastal and inland section.

The Great Dublin Bike Ride: This is the only Dublin City-based leisure cycle; it offers a closed-road tour of Dublin City and County, and is on September 24th.

The Sport Ireland Cycle Series: This is a five-cycle series; you can do as many events as you like of the five that are on offer, with a variety of distances and routes that take in some of the best roads in Ireland like the Wild Atlantic Way, Copper Coast Drive, the Burren and the Ring of Beara.

Ring of Kerry: This is one of Irelands most scenic routes, the jewel in the crown of Kerrys world-renowned wondrous landscape. You can tackle it at your own pace at any time of year, or you could join the 10,000 cyclists up for one of Irelands best loved challenges on the July 1st, 2017.

The Gran Fondo Giro dItalia Northern Ireland: This takes cyclists around some of the spectacular countryside of Northern Irelands east coast, following similar routes to those taken by the professionals when the Giro dItalia visited Ireland in 2014.

The Mizmal: Prof Oliver says, Next year, Im planning to ride the Mizmal (about 550 miles) in a week from Mizen Head to Malin Head. It should be great! See mizmal.com

Irelands cycling boom, according to Heather Boyle, can be attributed to several reasons, with the introduction of the Bike to Work Scheme (biketowork.ie) one of the key initial drivers: Bike rental schemes in Dublin, Cork and Galway, she says, made cycling accessible to everyone, and the increased and ongoing investment in cycle lanes, greenways and blueways has created safer environments for commuters, families and individuals. This investment is crucial if Ireland is looking to increase active travel, and together with cyclist.ie, Cycling Ireland is pushing for 10 per cent of the transport budget to be allocated to cycling.

But as Boyle explains, although cycling is enjoying a resurgence in popularity among middle-aged people, Cycling Ireland is keen to promote it to children: Trends have shown, she says, that fewer children cycle to school than in previous years. For example, in primary schools the number of children commuting by bike dropped from 22,400 in 1991 to 6,200 in 2011, according to the census.

One means of addressing this challenge is the Sprocket Rocket cycling skills programme, aimed at children aged 5-12, with a focus on basic cycling skills like cornering, balance, braking and pedalling. Its a programme, says Boyle, thats particularly popular with our clubs, who have recognised a significant improvement in the confidence and competence of the children who completed the course.

Then there is Cycle Right, launched in early 2017, with over 3,000 participants at 80 schools throughout Ireland signed up for training. Boyle explains that this is the first time Ireland has had a national standard for cycle training, and particular emphasis is placed on educating participants to become competent, confident cyclists who will have the skills to move safely on the road network.

The Scottish experience

Across the Irish Sea, Prof Oliver is actively engaged in turning policy into pedalling. Bike usage, he says, is best promoted by governments having an active travel plan and a good targeted, driven cycling policy. My best cycling project that has got people active is Play on Pedals (playonpedals.com). I raised the grant funding for this project, that not only engages pre-school children in cycling to improve the mental and physical health of future generations, but aims to give every pre-school child in Glasgow the opportunity to learn to ride a bike before starting school.

The project worked with 7,148 children over 2.5 years and trained 388 instructors and instructor trainers to deliver across Glasgow, a city with large areas of multiple deprivation and recognised health inequalities. Play on Pedals, says Oliver, has been a hugely popular programme. It has provided a fun and engaging way to increase physical activity, confidence and resilience among pre-school children and families in Glasgow. As one head teacher commented, There will be a generational change within the community because we have children who are leaving the nursery who can cycle and that can only add to how our environment will grow.

Is there scope in the future for a mutually beneficial cross-fertilisation of ideas between Dublin and Glasgow?

Heather Boyle emphasises cyclings many facets: While many think of road cycling, Irelands mountain bike scene is one of the most vibrant and growing communities, with hubs of activities around the country attracting those with a love for adventures off the beaten track. The Emerald Enduro is a great day out for the family.

And BMX cycling enjoys a healthy resurrection. This is an area that has attracted many younger riders. While there are several top-class racing tracks for serious competitors, there are BMX tracks in most towns nationwide, making it extremely affordable and accessible.

Track cycling, says Boyle, is a fast, exciting and competitive discipline, with cyclists on single-gear brakeless bikes riding around in circles! Ireland has three outdoor tracks Dublin, Cork and Belfast and Irish riders such as Martyn Irvine, Caroline Ryan and our paracycling team have won many world medals.

However, road cycling is the most popular discipline in Ireland, with 65 per cent of Cycling Irelands members being leisure cyclists, participating in the many sportives held around the country. Ireland, adds Boyle, also has a booming competitive scene, with races like the An Post Rs and An Post Rs na mBan driving up the standard of the domestic riders, and feeding people into the Irish national teams and professional cycling teams.

Of all the problems that people face today, depression proves one of the hardest to pinpoint. People often suffer in secret, not wanting to burden others or admit that they need professional help. Those same people continue with their normal routines and, many times, unhealthy eating habits. Now, health professionals are actually linking diet and depression and have found success in using diet to treat the disorder.

Globally, millions of people suffer from depression, an estimated300 millionto be exact. In fact, major depression constitutes one of the mostcommonmental health disorders in the United States, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. These suffering people need options, and a simple change in diet could motivate many to finally take action.

For decades, people have correlated healthy eating with feeling better, including in the area of mental health. However, many people who do not eat well also have outside stress factors, such as a busy schedule or low income. Health professionals can easily attribute any depression in these groups to these outside factors strained by a poor diet.

THE SECRET TO AGING SLOWLY?

Diet and Depression: A Study

However, onestudyset out to evaluate the direct link between diet and depression. The researchers found some interesting results. Several researchers and Australian institutions worked together to conduct a study around the topic at Deakin University in Victoria, Australia. They carried out the study over a 12-week period and observed 67patientswith moderate to severe depression.

For their control group, the patients received social support rather than switching their eating habits to a healthy, well-balanced diet. The other patients then received a series of seven one-hour dietary counseling sessions where they were advised to eat a diet high in fruits, vegetables, and lean meats. The researchers used diet guidelines from both the Australian and Greek governments, forming a modified Mediterranean diet.

After the trial period, the researchers found that over 30 percent of the patients had gone into remission with their depression. Only 8 percent of the control group actually experienced this same improvement.

WALKING CORPSE SYNDROME: THE WALKING DEAD MADE REAL

According to one proponent of the diet for depression idea, Dr. Drew Ramsey, the participants that showed the most remarkable results had improved their diet the most. This trial has greatly encouraged the research on this important topic, helping researchers understand and better help patients suffering from depression.

How Diet Influences Depression

Most people in America today do not associate their diet and depression together. However, because food does influence energy levels and mood, the link only makes sense.

One troublingstudyfound that nearly 60 percent of Americans eat ultra-processed foods, the kind whose ingredient list runs long and includes unfamiliar names. What troubled researchers the most about this study is the fact that 90 percent of added sugars come from these processed foods.

Since Americans are eating a lot of processed meals, theyre also taking in an excessive amount of added sugar. For people with depression, thisdietfilled with added sugar does little to help them.

CATCH OF THE DAY: THE BEST AND WORST FOOD FOR YOUR DIET

It might give a short energy burst, but it will eventually cause energy to sink, bringing any happy moods down with it. In addition, the empty calories will leave the body devoid of essential nutrients that might help to boost a persons mood.

Many people also love caffeine, drinking multiple cups each day. Again, they consume the usual excess sugar and empty calories. However, the caffeine can also disrupt sleep and cause anxiety or nervous tremors.

In addition, people with depression may have a tendency to turn to alcohol. Unfortunately, alcohol depresses the central nervous system. This vital system processes information through the senses and controls emotion. Depressing this system will directly influence a persons mood for the worse, especially those dealing with depression.

A Healthy Diet

Rather than turning to an unhealthy diet, people with depression should focus on getting in plenty of fruits and vegetables. Then, they should add in lean meats, including red meat high in iron. To round out their improved diet, they should also drink plenty of water, forgoing caffeinated and sugary beverages.

According to the research, diet and depression do go hand in hand. Those suffering from depression should eliminate processed foods as much as possible. Instead, they should replace them with a plant-rich diet alongside lean, quality meats. With a few simple changes in lifestyle, these patients can improve their mental health and return to normal activities with renewed energy and joy.

The diabetes medication linagliptin can protect against stiffening of the left ventricle of the heart in overweight female mice, a new study suggests.

The finding may have implications for management of cardiovascular diseases in humans, particularly for obese and diabetic premenopausal women, who are more at risk of developing heart diseaseeven more than men of similar age and with similar health issues.

In previous studies, we showed that young, female mice consuming a Western diet, high in fat, sucrose, and high fructose corn syrup, not only gained weight, but also exhibited vascular stiffening consistent with obese premenopausal women, says Vincent DeMarco, a research associate professor of endocrinology at the University of Missouri School of Medicine and the lead author of the study.

Our current study sought to understand if linagliptin prevents cardiac stiffening caused by eating a Western-style diet.

Linagliptin is a medication prescribed to lower blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes. The medication works by blocking the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4, or DPP-4. Previous studies have shown that DPP-4 inhibitors offer protection against vascular inflammation and oxidative stressconditions associated with cardiovascular stiffening.

DeMarcos team studied 34 female mice that were fed either a normal diet or a simulated Western diet for four months. Another group of mice were fed a Western diet containing a low dose of linagliptin. The team used an ultrasound system, similar to that used in humans, to evaluate the function of the left ventricle of the heart.

A heartbeat actually is a two-part pumping action that takes less than a second in healthy humans, DeMarco says. The first part, known as diastole, involves relaxation of the left ventricle while it fills with oxygenated blood from the lungs. After the left ventricle fills with blood, it then contracts and pushes blood into the aorta. This part of the cardiac cycle is referred to as systole.

If the left ventricle becomes stiffer it will not be able to relax normally, and diastole will be impaired. This form of heart disease is known as diastolic dysfunction, which is a risk factor for a more serious heart condition known as diastolic heart failure, he explains.

The mice fed the Western diet alone gained weight, exhibited increased heart weight, and developed diastolic dysfunction. However, the mice fed the Western diet along with linagliptin did not develop diastolic dysfunction. They also exhibited less oxidative stress and inflammation in their hearts compared to the mice fed the Western diet alone.

Oxidative stress and inflammation are two factors that can promote excess accumulation of collagen, also known as fibrosis, in the walls of the left ventricle, DeMarco says. In our study, we found that Western diet-fed mice had increased fibrosis in the left ventricle that was prevented by linagliptin.

The team also found that linagliptin suppressed not only DPP-4 activity, but also TRAF3IP2 production. TRAF3IP2 is a protein responsible for initiating tissue oxidative stress, inflammation, and fibrosis in the heart.

This was a major novel finding of our study, DeMarco says. However, further research is required to determine exactly how linagliptin affects the function of this important protein.

DeMarco also cautions that linagliptin, like other DPP-4 inhibitors, can be expensive without insurance coverage.

Based on the results of this research and our previous studies, it is tempting to speculate that linagliptin could reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes, DeMarco says. However, ongoing clinical trials will help determine what, if any, cardio-protective role linagliptin could play in the management of obesity-related heart disease.

The study appears in Cardiovascular Diabetology. Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Inc., the National Institutes of Health, and the Department of Veterans Affairs provided funding for the study.

Two LA Fitness health clubs in Orange County are under investigation after four customers contracted Legionnaires disease.

Three of the cases are tied to the club in MetroWest at 4792 Kirkman Road, said Kent Donahue, a spokesman for the Florida Department of Health in Orange County, and the other case is tied to the LA Fitness club at 12700 S. Orange Blossom Trail.

The Florida Department of Health sent investigators to the club to take water samples last week, but results wont be available for about two weeks, Donahue said. It isnt certain that the four individuals contracted the illness at LA Fitness, but all four patients used the health clubs. The health department is not aware of other commonalities in the cases.

A spokeswoman for LA Fitness did not immediately return a request for comment. LA Fitness sent notices to customers at the two facilities last week, warning them to watch out for any signs of Legionnaires disease.

Legionnaires disease is a serious respiratory illness caused by Legionella bacteria. It is usually contracted through water systems or sometimes through air-conditioning systems.

An LA Fitness health club in Ocoee was also investigated for signs of Legionella bacteria in April, but results were negative, Donahue said.

Reports of Legionnaires disease and Legionella bacteria are not common in Orange County, but happen more frequently in enclosed water systems, such as hot tubs, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC reports that there were about 6,000 cases of Legionnaires diseases reported in 2015 in the United States.

But LA Fitness in Central Florida has had two confirmed cases of the bacteria in recent years, including in 2008 at an LA Fitness in south downtown Orlando and in 2010 at an LA Fitness in the Waterford Lakes area.

There was also a positive test for Legionella bacteria at Florida Hospital Orlando in late 2015 and early 2016.

The illness is more common in summer and early fall but can happen any time of year, according to the agencys website.

Donahue said people at higher risk of contracting serious symptoms from the bacteria include people over 50, people with lung and respiratory diseases and people with compromised immune systems.

Because of possible Legionella bacteria, the two LA Fitness health clubs are being asked to use elevated levels of chlorine in spa areas and use extra filters on showers.

A number of free fitness classes are being offered across Park Ridge this month as part of an initiative launched by the city's Community Health Commission.

"Get Fit Park Ridge" gives Park Ridge residents an opportunity to sign up for free or low-cost, short-term classes at a variety of fitness centers in the city. The deals last through June 30, according to Tricia Williams, chairwoman of the Community Health Commission.

"This is the first big project we're working on, so we're pretty excited about it," Williams said. "There are so many new fitness studios in town, and it's good to promote local businesses and get the name of the Community Health Commission out there."

The commission expanded its mission and direction last year to focus more on "general health and wellness concerns," Williams said. Get Fit Park Ridge is a way to make the community more aware of the commission, as well as the many fitness-related businesses that have sprung up in the city, she added.

"A chance to try out a new exercise program or something you haven't tried before is always good," Williams said. "And when it's free, that's also a good opportunity."

Of the 19 fitness-themed businesses that were contacted by the health commission, 11 agreed to participate in Get Fit Park Ridge, Williams said.

The Spot Fitness Studio, 928 Busse Highway, is offering one week of free classes to new users. Cindy Mortell, who owns the studio with Matt Hansen, said the company focuses on offering group and one-on-one personal training, as well as yoga and "pop up" boot camp workouts.

"We just want to help people achieve their fitness goals no matter how big they are, and we want them to believe in themselves," Mortell said.

Across town, Tone Up Club, 742 Higgins Road, is offering two small group personal training sessions free of charge during the month of June.

"What we're trying to do with Get Fit Park Ridge is give people a sample of personal training in a small group environment," said owner and trainer Jeff Franckowiak.

The small groups have no more than four participants, he added.

The studio also offers classes in cardio kickboxing, yoga, Zumba, and TRX and kettle bell, according to the business' website.

Other fitness establishments offering special deals during the month of June include the following:
