A woman farmers harvests pearl millet in Andhra Pradesh, India. Millets were once a steady part of Indians' diets until the Green Revolution, which encouraged farmers to grow wheat and rice. Now, the grains are slowly making a comeback.

Getting people to change what they eat is tough. Changing a whole farming system is even tougher. The southern Indian state of Karnataka is quietly trying to do both, with a group of cereals that was once a staple in the state: millet.

Until about 40 years ago, like most of India, the people of Karnataka regularly ate a variety of millets, from finger millet (or ragi) to foxtail millet. They made rotis with it, ate it with rice, and slurped it up at breakfast as porridge.

In the sixties, the Green Revolution a national program that led to the widespread use of high yielding crop varieties, irrigation, fertilizers and pesticides led to a dramatic increase in food grain production in India. But it also focused on two main crops rice and wheat which guzzle water.

"Crops that survived on rain rather than irrigation, and were far more sustainable, were forgotten," explains Dinesh Kumar, who runs Earth 360, a non-profit organization in the neighboring southern state of Andhra Pradesh that helps popularize millets and train farmers to grow them. "Millets began to be seen as food for the poor," says Kumar. "Rice was aspirational. White became right, brown became wrong." These days, millets are used mostly for animal fodder.

Now, after nearly four decades of intensive farming (and growing urban populations which use a lot of water), most of India is facing severe water crises. So, many states are trying to come up with a more sustainable way to farm. And Karnataka is leading the way with its efforts with millets.

There are many factors that make millets more sustainable as crops. Compare the amount of water needed to grow rice with that for millets. One rice plant requires nearly 2.5 times the amount of water required by a single millet plant of most varieties, according to the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid (ICRISAT), a global research organization helping to make millets more popular. That's why millets are primarily grown in arid regions of Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Millets can also withstand higher temperatures. "Crops like rice and wheat cannot tolerate temperatures more than 38 degrees Centigrade (100.4 Fahrenheit), while millets can tolerate temperatures of more than 46 degrees C (115 F)," says S.K Gupta, the principal scientist at the pearl millet breeding program at ICRISAT. "They can also grow in saline soil." Millets could therefore be an important solution for farmers grappling with climate change sea level rise (which can cause soil salinity to increase), heat waves, droughts and floods.

Millets are also more nutritious than rice or wheat. They are rich in protein, fibers and micronutrients like iron, zinc and calcium, and thus hold immense promise for India's malnourished, especially those with micronutrient deficiencies.

Millets have a lower glycemic index (a measure of how fast our body converts food into sugar) than rice, which is thought to be one of the main factors contributing to the rise in rates of diabetes in India. Some scientists think eating millets could help Indians reduce their risk of this disease.

Switching to millets then should be easy. Or is it? A massive hurdle is that crops like rice, wheat and sugarcane are still way more profitable. "Unless millets match up to other crops, we can't force farmers to grow them," says Krishna Byre Gowda, Karnataka's Minister for Agriculture. "We are not trying to replace rice or wheat entirely. We are simply trying to supplement them with more sustainable crops."

To make millets more attractive, his government has introduced a series of incentives. It offers farmers more than the minimum support price it pays for other crops, gives subsidies on seeds, and has made millets a part of the public distribution system: a country wide network that distributes cheap grains to the poor.

There's much lost ground to make up, because millets still don't have an efficient value chain. "Millets are coarse and need more processing than other crops, but the machines for these have not reached the farmer yet, and thus production remains low," says Gupta.

Narasimha Reddy, a farmer on the outskirts of Bangalore, recently switched from growing maize to ragi. "Ragi is much hardier than maize; it can endure for a month without any water," he says. Many farmers in his area are switching back to maize, because ragi costs far more to harvest, but Reddy plans to continue growing ragi. "Demand is slowly picking up in the city, and I think it will improve further now people know of the health benefits," he says. "There's no choice but to grow ragi if water levels deplete further. But we need more machines for quick harvesting, and better quality seeds."

The state government has partnered with research institutions to develop higher yield seeds and better ways to process seeds. All this is in line with recommendations made by a recent report by the Global Panel On Agriculture and Food Systems Nutrition, which found that people's diets are worsening as countries like India urbanize. That's because it is now easier and more affordable to buy unhealthy, processed foods and sodas than healthy foods. The authors of the report recommend that countries should invest more money into making healthy foods like millets, fruits and vegetables more affordable and easily available, rather than rice and wheat. "More and more villagers are migrating to the cities in search of work," says Gupta. "When they do, they lose their traditional food habits. We need to give those back to them."

But it may be impossible to bring back traditional millet-based foods that have fallen out of fashion. "You can't force people to go back to the food habits of their grandfathers rotis, ragi balls and so forth but you can get them to eat millet foods in tune with their new eating habits: breakfast cereals, cakes, pasta, baked products and ready to cook products," says Byregowda.

The government is partnering with research institutions and food companies to develop new food products. It is introducing these products at fairs, where the public is also educated about the benefits of eating millets. At a recent fair, products displayed included everything from millet pastas, chips and cakes to more traditional Indian dishes. Meanwhile, many hotels have introduced millets in breakfast buffets, millet pizzas, and millet biryanis.

The government is also approaching influencers food writers, chefs, doctors, and the media to help sell millet to the newly affluent, quinoa- and chia-seed-eating, health conscious Indian customer. "If you can eat imported quinoa, why can't you eat millet?" asks Joanna Kane-Potaka, ICRISAT's director of communications.

Why not indeed? As a child I used to eat ragi porridge, but I haven't eaten it in decades. So I try some new millet products to reacquaint myself with the grain. A ragi cereal turned out to be about as edible as pulverized doormats. But another product from the same company, chocolate ragi puffs, was almost as good as Kelloggs's Cocopops, if still heavy on the sugar.

Ragi digestive cookies from a big company were too chewy, but those from a small neighborhood bakery turned out to be surprisingly good and child-pleasing. A couple of handfuls of ragi batter in dosas (Indian style rice pancakes) was almost indistinguishable in taste, and I threw some into banana bread with the same result.

For most of us, returning to millets may involve some trial and error. But as Kumar points out, even a few handfuls of millet in your everyday foods is better for you than none. Besides, by 2050, India will need to feed 1.7 billion people. And millets could help make that happen.

ROCKFORD, Ill. (WIFR) -- More than one-third of adults in the United States are obese according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now a nationally recognized program at a local hospital is fighting those numbers, helping hundreds of Stateliners lose the weight and keep it off.

"I wanted to lose 80 pounds. And how's that been going so far? Well I lost 110."

It's a new year and a new Randy Hoglund.

"I have more energy," he says. "I just feel great."

He says he's changing his life thanks to a diet plan at OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center. While this isn't the first time Hoglund's tried to lose weight, this is the first time he says it's worked.

"I lost 65 pounds, but I didn't stick with it because I didn't have any accountability," he says. "Not only did I put back on that 65, I put on another 40."

That was until his wife told him about OSF HMR's program.

"HMR stands for Health Management Resources," says OSF Weight Management Coordinator Adam Schafer. "We focus on the long-term weight management rather than the short-term."

Schafer says HMR is a meal replacement program that works because medical professionals help participants every step of the way.

"They're on a meal replacement program for 13 weeks, " says Schafer. "The meal replacements are meant to jump start their weight loss. It gives them no decisions, they just do the meal replacement, they lose the weight."

The HMR program has two phases. During phase one patients eat these meals, shakes and bars at least once a day. The second phase uses group meetings and individual sessions to keep patients on track.

"That's not only for for accountability but for the education and learning how to do the program," says Schafer. "Next we do midweek phone calls. That's an extra accountability figure. It's a time we can work with you one on one instead of a group setting."

Hoglund says the two steps are the reason when he steps on the scale, he sees results.

Participants also attend class every week. During class, weight management coordinators teach participants lifestyle changes and meal substitutions.

"Once a week we come to class and it's a lot easier to go out to eat and say listen instead of having dessert, I'll stick with this," says Hoglund. "Or instead of having this, I'll go with a more lighter option."

Losing the weight has opened other doors for Hoglund, allowing him to have a knee surgery and spend more time with his four grand kids.

"All around, I feel much better."

He feels the HMR program has allowed him to take the weight off and keep it off, teaching him to live a healthy life, and set goals: like losing another 15 to 20 pounds in the next three months.

The average weight loss during the first three months of the program is 35 pounds for women and 40 pounds for me according to OSF.

Khlo Kardashians new show Revenge Body has recently garnered attention andlike many of the Kardashians commercial endeavorsconflict. In the show, contestants are selected to undergo a complete physical makeover with the hopes of getting revenge on their old lifestyles.

Kardashian became the face of the revenge body movement after her split with Lamar Odom. As someone who somewhat shamelessly follows the lives of the Kardashians, I watched her transformation occur right on my Instagram feed. Her social media accounts were flooded with workout tips, gym selfies and motivational quotes. She became the poster girl for how to win a breakup.

Kardashian lost a lot of weight and dyed her hair blonde, and people took notice. Her hope in creating Revenge Body is to allow non-celebrities to undergo the same miraculous transformation as she did.

There is a lot to unpack when looking at the problematic aspects of Revenge Body, such as the clear issues of putting white, patriarchal norms as the standard of beauty to which everyone should aspire or even the suggestion that self-worth and happiness are contingent upon weight loss.

The Kardashians are no strangers to promoting similar unhealthy values. They quite literally promote these values on their social media, advertising products such as Skinny Teas, waist trainers and diet pills. Revenge Body, however, may be their most nefarious act so far.

The trailer for the show begins with a relatively positive message as Kardashian discusses her previously toxic relationship with food that left her unhappy and unhealthy, which she overcame through healthy eating and exercise.

This quickly becomes dangerous, however, as it suggests that weight loss was the only factor in Kardashians newfound happinessthat her self-worth is contingent about thinness and her obsession with exercise.

The premise of the show is not supposed to be explicitly about revenge after a breakup, but rather the life that you once had, as Kardashian states on the season one trailer. Moments after this, however, contestants are asked to list who their revenge body is for. Some responses included an ex-fianc, their mothers and their friends.

The suggestion that problems with interpersonal relationships, self-esteem issues and unhealthy mindsets can be fixed with gym sessions, haircuts and laser hair removal is absurd and dangerous.

Oddly enough, these physically exhausting and often painful processes can offer contestants an easier solution than looking inward and addressing the deeper emotional issues that create these feelings of inadequacy.

Its natural to desire change when we feel like we are unhappy with the trajectory of our lives. Channeling self-loathing and sadness into obsessive weight loss, however, is not the same as, say, getting a haircut, learning to knit or adopting a puppy.

Its not about a weight number, its how you feel, Kardashian said in a trailer for the show.

This is subsequently followed by clips of trainers barking orders at contestants who work themselves to exhaustion and look miserable as they stand on a scale. It may be unwarranted to expect a deeper understanding of harmful Western beauty idealssuch as body hair removal and spray tanning from a Kardashian sisterbut these obvious displays of fat-shaming and harsh judgment take these issues to a new level.

The bigger issues come into play when filming ends. The excessive amount of training and time commitment Kardashian promotes are simply unsustainable in everyday life. After reaching the short-term goal of weight loss, it may be hard for contestants to grapple with the fact that long-term issues persisteven if they drop three dress sizes.

Looking to burn more fat? You could give fasting a try, according to results from a preliminary study.

The study found that when participants consumed all of their calories within a 6-hour window, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., they burned 6 percent more fat and had more stable hunger levels than participants who consumed the same amount of calories within a 12-hour window, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

"It kind of makes sense," said Courtney Peterson, lead author of the study and an assistant professor in the Department of Nutrition Sciences at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. "Your body's fat-burning ability peaks after you've been fasting for 12 to 14 hours."

For up to 12 hours after the start of a fast, the body is still burning glycogen, a molecule that stores glucose (or sugar). After 12 hours, the body begins burning fat stores, Peterson said. [Dieters, Beware: 9 Myths That Can Make You Fat]

However, Peterson cautioned that burning 6 percent more fat did not meet the researchers' criteria for a meaningful difference between the groups. That means the difference could have been due to chance, and in scientific terms, the finding was not "statistically significant." But this could also be because the study was too small to show a meaningful difference between the groups, Peterson said. So, a larger study would be needed to confirm these preliminary findings, she said.

Dr. Alexandra Johnstone, a senior research fellow at the Rowett Institute of Nutrition and Health at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland, who was not involved with the study, noted that any differences in fat-burning seen in the study are likely because people in the fasting group went all evening and night (18 hours) without eating. But these differences should not be taken to mean that eating food like carbs after a certain time can lead to increased fat production, she said.

In the study, which was presented at the Obesity Society Annual Meeting in late 2016, 11 overweight individuals ages 20 to 45 years took part in two different weeklong phases of the experiment. For one trial, participants would begin, on day 4 of the week, to consume all of their calories between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. In the control trial, participants would, also on day 4, start consuming all of their calories between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Each participant took part in both trials.

While the study found no difference in weight loss between the two trials, Peterson said that there was a nearly 13-hour period, mostly at night, when fat-burning levels were elevated in participants who ate their calories within the 6-hour window.

Besides the increased fat-burning, the study also found that hunger levels were more stable for participants who ate their daily calories within the 6-hour window versus the 12-hour window. Researchers used an arbitrary 100-point scale and asked participants to rate their hunger, with a score of 100 being the highest and 0 the lowest, in each phase of the trial. Results showed that, while average hunger levels were the same for both groups, the group eating all calories within the 6-hour window had hunger levels that varied by 12 fewer points than the group eating all their calories within the 12-hour window.

This may be because those waiting until later in the day to consume their dinner meal still had a third of their calories left to consume, Peterson said. "That might set you up more for binges or unhealthy eating than if you've already eaten all of your food for the day," Peterson said, though she added that more research is needed to confirm this hypothesis.

For people hoping to try fasting, Peterson recommended starting with a 9-hour window of food consumption and gradually working that down to 8, 7 and finally 6 hours.

However, this type of fasting should be avoided for children and women who are pregnant, Peterson said. That's because fasting slows down the rate that cells are dividing, which could harm growing children or fetuses, Peterson noted. She also emphasized that anyone with a major chronic disease would need to talk to a doctor before attempting a fasting regimen. Finally, whether such fasting helps with long-term weight loss is still unknown, the researchers said.

Peterson said she hopes to not only repeat the study with a larger sample size, but also test whether time of day affects fat-burning levels. For instance, she might compare participants who eat their calories in a 6-hour window in the morning against those who do so in a 6-hour window in the evening.

In 2014, a little-known nutritionist in Milwaukee, one of the more portly cities in America, developed an ingenious system to get his clients to lose weight and keep it off for good. He told his morbidly obese clients to pair each pound with a descriptive adjective, noun, or euphemism they hated, so that each time they lost a pound they could strike it off the list forever. Provided they did not regain the weight, they need never hear the mortifying term again. For example,

270 Porker

269 Lardbutt

268 Fatso

267 Chunkster

and so on, down through

245 Pleasingly Plump

242 A Tad Chubby

until finally reaching

185 Lithe

175 Lean 'n' Mean

165 Thin as a Rail. </blockquote>

At first, the dieters found this approach juvenile and silly. But to their great astonishment, it worked: By transforming dieting from an onerous chore into a game in which psychic rewards were constantly experienced, Dr. Drake Kismet was successful in getting 87 percent of his patients to lose at least 50 pounds. And in one case, a client shed 135 pounds in seven months. "It would have been more," Kismet explains, "but we ran out of words for 'skinny.'"

Had the participants shed the weight and quickly regained it, Dr. Kismet's strategy could easily be lumped in with all the other gimmicky weight-loss systems that the chronically chunky have tried, without achieving any long-term success. But the dieters did not gain the weight back; the positive-feedback word-association game exerted such a powerful influence over their psyches that almost none of them reverted to their old ways.

"I joined the program because I never wanted to hear someone call me a seething tub of suet again," said one subject who lost 85 pounds in a scant four months. "And now they never will."

Inspired by Kismet's unusual methods, psychologists in completely unrelated fields have begun to apply his tactics to other types of compulsive, self-destructive behavior. And they, too, have achieved stunning results:

"My client Randy was a complete schmuck, and had been a schmuck for many years," explains Dr. Roark Gault, a Miami psychiatrist. "We tried everything: medication, cognitive therapy, aversion training, sleep deprivation, feedback loops, yoga. Nothing worked. Then one day, after reading about Dr. Kismet's weight-loss program, I asked Randy if he would be willing to participate in a three-month behavior-modification trial whereby each week he would try to be a bit less of a crud."

The results took my breath away. The first week, he paid his alimony on timeto all eight wives. He also took 3 of his 29 kids to the circus. This allowed him to eliminate the word "schmuck" from his profile. Then I persuaded him to stop stiffing his customers. That gave him carte blanche to deep-six the word "sleazeball." We then proceeded apace through "creep," "lowlife," "scum bunny," and "jerk." Right now, he's hard at work on "slob." No two ways about it; Randy's come a long way.

Some of the most amazing results have been achieved by using these tactics with hired guns and axe-murderers. By persuading cruel, heinous menand a few incredibly unpleasant womento gradually tone down their acts, the Prodigal Project has successfully induced more than 75 hitmen to either stop killing people entirely or at least cut back on the mayhem. The approach is exactly the same as the weight-loss program: a straightforward rewards system that builds self-esteem by allowing contract killers to stop thinking of themselves in graphic, profoundly shameful terms. Siddhartha Rattigan, executive director of the Prodigal Project, explains:

You're never going to get a top-flight button man to completely give up whacking informers, patsies, and stool pigeons, but you can definitely get them to dial it down a notch. Go a full month without icing someone and we allow the subject to mothball the term "the apotheosis of pure evil." Go easy on the carnage for two months and the words "spawn of Satan" fall by the wayside. We then work our way through "atavistic," "bloodthirsty," "primordial," and "savage," all the way down to "somewhat less than cordial," "not exactly what you would call a charmer," and "a bit of a curmudgeon." Does that mean that our subjects are ever fully rehabilitated? No. But have they made huge strides in the right direction? Yes.

Adjectival Reinforcement Therapy has been shown to work with embezzlers, conmen, scam artists, thieves, second-story men, no-good-double-crossing liars, dirty rats, hooligans, and garden-variety thugs. It has also achieved amazing results with pigs, bozos, SOBs, and even rogues.

"Six months ago, my client viewed himself as the scum of the earth," says Rattigan. "But through positive verbal reinforcement, he now thinks of himself as a harmless ne'er-do-well. And his ultimate goalbeing perceived as a hale-fellow-well-metis well within his reach. One of these days, Vic the Human Glock is going to be able to describe himself as a pillar of the community, a stand-up guy, a real sweetheart, perhaps even a pussycatwithout fear of being contradicted."
