J Nutrition May, 2011 - Just back from a week-long cruise on the Queen Mary 2, the best way I have found to relax in utter luxury, yet remarkably affordable. See this, longer synopses, and links to published articles at Nutrition investigator. Please read how and why these emails are written this way here. And review the disclaimer.

Research results reinforce seven reminders for healthy nutrition- The synopses here [http://chemistry.beloit.edu/Ordman/nutrition/aln/1105jnutr.htm] have more details.
A. Get plenty of vitamin D - 1. Only 600 IU of vitamin D daily may be too low for many in US - About 30% of people in the United States are obese. 2. 2,000 iu of vitamin D does not reduce height.
B. Get plenty of antioxidants - 3. Lower serum antioxidant status is associated with higher rates of metabolic syndrome,
C. Get plenty of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) - 4. BCAAs promote muscle growth .
D. Get plenty of probiotics - 5. Probiotics useful for a healthy intestinal lining 6. Whey protein is also useful to strengthen the intestinal lining . 7. Fermentation products of fiber produced by colonic bacteria promote colon health. 8. In a separate study, it was again found that fiber is necessary for proper colon function. 9. Probiotics enhance colon activity that produces molecules that reduce risk of heart disease
E. Get plenty of fish oil - 10. Fish oil supplement benefits immune system in less than a week 11. Unsaturated fats, even omega-6, are better than saturated fats to prevent inflammation
F. Don't get too much sodium - 12. Sodium hazardous to large arteries in hypertensive adults
G. Don't let economic status control your diet - 13. Food intake patterns are related to adult and childhood economic status

Please sail to health and relaxation with good nutrition!
