#Health Teens Mal-Nutrition - Teenagers not getting enough says London Nutritionist

Picture of Teens' Health: Why are we failing our young teens when it comes to getting them to follow a healthy diet?
The Mirror: According to nutritionist Yvonne Bishop-Weston, the problem arises because we’re socially programmed to make sure our younger kids and babies eat healthily and take extra vitamins, but not encouraged to focus on teenagers, who by this age are mostly making their own food choices.
“This is a mistake as the teenage years are incredibly vital for when it comes to nutrition,” says Bishop-Weston.
“Age 13 to 18 is the period of growth spurts, frantic hormone activity and high academic stress – in fact, the body needs a higher amount of nutrients then more than at almost any other time of life.”

Be Careful of Loosing Weight Too Quickly Says Nutritionist

http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/charlotte-crosby-likes-being-called-5721746

London Nutritionist Yvonne Bishop-Weston says that loosing weight too quickly can be dangerous. Too skinny can be just as unhealthy as too fat.

Once your diet takes you below a certain weight you have to choose your calories with precision to maintain your body's need for vitamins, minerals, essential fats and antioxidants to maintain balanced health. A sustainable healthy level of essential fats is typically the first to suffer from a very low fat diets. Without expert guidance from a properly qualified registered and experienced nutritional therapy trained nutritionist may of the body's systems could be compromised.

After the London Nutritionist's warning earlier in the year in The Daily Mirror and The Daily Record defiant Charlotte Crosby told Closer magazine: “I like bring called too skinny.”
She continued: “It’s better than being called too fat"

Charlotte Crosby was quoted as saying "It's not causing anyone any harm"

Yvonne Bishop-Weston disagreed "I've helped a number of anorexic girls in my Harley Street clinic, anorexia is a cruel and spiteful condition that can ruin a young life and is often fatal without a comprehensive multidisciplinary specialist approach"

Last weekend Yvonne was speaking at London Vegfest about how to raise your children heathily on a vegetarian / vegan diet.

Although eating a plant based diet helps you avoid greater risks associated with a standard diet there are optimisation issues you need to be aware of as with any diet. Getting the balance right with high sugar foods and adequate essential fats intake are just as important to keep an eye on as with a meat based diet.

Is your health kick ageing you? - Mirror Online

Is your health kick ageing you? - Mirror Online

London Harley Street Nutrition guru gives health and beauty advice in the Daily Mirror.

"Not all fats are evil. Essential fatty acids in particular are vital as they strengthen the skin's ability to retain water, power-plumping your complexion from within," she explains. "Without these fats in your diet, skin cells aren't flexible enough to let nutrients in and toxins out, causing a puffy, dull complexion."

Are spaghetti hoops really one of your five-a-day? Which? says foods high in salt and sugar should be stripped of logo | Mail Online

London Harley Street clinical Nutritionist commented on the Which? demands for more honest food labelling in The Mail Online today

The Department of Health's 5 A DAY logo and portion indicator apply to fresh, frozen and canned fruit and vegetables with no added fat, sugar or salt so clearly wouldn't apply to spaghetti hoops

I agree with which? that manufacturers should be forbidden to claim a portion of 5 a day when a food lacks the fibre, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants - the very reasons why we are encouraged to eat more fruit and veg, although the science suggests we need at least 8 x 80g portions to reap meaningful benefits.

More importantly though the GDA system that manufacturers use instead of the easy to understand Fodd Standard's Agency's Traffic Light System should be exposed by Which?

Manufacturers use upper limits of recommendations for sugar fat and salt and make GDA labelling too complicated for consumers to understand by using percentages rather than making it clear that a product is 'high in fat' or 'high in sugar' using a red colour.

Manufacturers are also misleading consumers with their recommended portions. In workshops when we ask participants to measure out their normal portion of cereal it never matches the recommended baby portion used in nutritional information on the packets.


Heinz spokesperson Nigel Dickie said:
‘For Heinz Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce, the 1 of your 5 a day comes from the tomatoes.Our soups, beans and spaghetti are low in fat and sugar, and have also benefited from salt reduction in line with the Department of Health's Responsibility Deal targets.
