Added sugar intake and metabolic syndrome in US adolescents
Objective To examine the association between added sugar intake and metabolic syndrome among adolescents. Design Dietary, serum biomarker, anthropometric and physical activity data from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey cycles between 2005 and 2012 were analysed using multivariate logistic regression models. Added sugar intake in grams per day was estimated from two 24 h standardized dietary recalls and then separated into q…
Reduced reward-driven eating accounts for the impact of a mindfulness-based diet and exercise intervention on weight loss
Acute responses to opioidergic blockade as a biomarker of hedonic eating among obese women enrolled in a mindfulness-based weight loss intervention trial
A new biomarker of hedonic eating? A preliminary investigation of cortisol and nausea responses to acute opioid blockade
Dietary Sugars Intake and Cardiovascular Health
High intakes of dietary sugars in the setting of a worldwide pandemic of obesity and cardiovascular disease have heightened concerns about the adverse effects of excessive consumption of sugars. In 2001 to 2004, the usual intake of added sugars for Americans was 22.2 teaspoons per day (355 calories per day). Between 1970 and 2005, average annual availability of sugars/added sugars increased by 19%, which added 76 calories to Americans’ average da…
Risk Factors for Obesity and High Blood Pressure in Chinese American Children

Students and their parents were recruited from Chinese language schools in the San Francisco Bay Area. Data were collected on 67 children and their mothers, and included children's weight, height, waist and hip circumferences, blood pressure, level of physical activity, dietary intake, usual food choice, knowledg…
