| | Ask The Expert |  | | | | | | | | | Archive By Date: Weight Management | Page 1 of 3 | | Answered questions from the past 2 years: | | My husband is on the border of being pre-diabetic. What kind of food should we be eating? We were told to avoid refined starch ¬ but we do enjoy pasta and breads. Which are the best ones? | I have diabetes, and am looking to control my carb intake. I want to eat more fruits and vegetables as part of a healthy diet. But how do I know if I am over doing it and getting too many carb calories? | Im overweight and have a problem with binge eating, although I never purge. I see a nutritionist and started an exercise program, but is there any medicine that can help? | My doctor told me that adding an exercise regimen that kept my heart rate accelerated 30-40 minutes almost every day would be good for me. Doing that (and changing eating habits) helped me lose weight. My question is: is 60 minutes of cardio-exercise twice as good as 30 minutes? Is 45 minutes 50% better for me than 30? Or is there a diminishing return on incremental increases like that? | I heard that there are 2 new prescription diet pills available? Do they work? Are they safe? | I have been diagnosed with gallstones. What foods can I eat to help them dissolve so I dont have to have surgery? | I have a heel spur and Im on medicine for the pain from my doctor. I want to start exercising again. I especially like yoga. Any suggestions? | My doctor wants me to lose weight so my blood sugar can go down. What type of food, fruits and vegetables should I eat? Im 58 and I weight 262 pounds. | When I think of the serving sizes suggested for a healthy diet, I don't think I can eat that much at a meal and be comfortable. What happens if children are encouraged to eat more than they are comfortable with
even healthy foods? I see this happening in the school setting, where food trays are overly filled with healthy food. | I am interested in a plant-based diet. Do you have any information on this? |
