Times of Trenton wrestling: Hamiltons Bennett wins, Allentowns Lamparelli loses in region action – nj.com

Posted: March 2, 2020 at 11:43 am

Hamilton's Ryan Bennett was the area's lone region champion on Saturday but the big news from the region action wasn't so much about who won but who lost.

Allentown's Joe Lamparelli, already a two time region champion, fell short of tying the CVC record of three region titles set by Steinert's two time state champion Brandon Cray when he lost to Middletown North's Fred Luchs 6-4 in overtime in the final of the NJSIAA/Rothman Orthopaedic Region 6 Tournament at Jackson Liberty.

At 40-6, Luchs is no slouch but considering Lamparelli came into the final at 39-0 and had defeated Luchs 9-3 in the District 22 final a week earlier, the loss had to be a disappointing one.

Lamparelli, who has just missed out on placing in the toughest weight class of the state tournament the past two years, will now face a tougher road to the elusive goal of medaling in Atlantic City. In a weight that includes several returning place winners, including last year's 113 pound state champion, Dean Peterson of St. John Vianney, the hit he is likely take in seeding from the loss will not help.

As unexpected as Lamparelli's finals defeat was, the lone area wrestler who claimed a region title also surprised as Bennett won the 170 pound championship at Region 6 after being seeded eighth in the weight.

Bennett, at 33-2 was an unlikely eighth seed but he quickly put the lie to that ranking when he knocked off the bracket's top seed, District 21 champion Brendan Newbury of Wall, 9-4 on Friday night in Jackson.

He cruised through his semifinal bout with a 12-4 decision over Burlington City's 4-seed James Ball and then completed his championship run with an 11-3 major decision in an all Mercer County final over Allentown's Paskal Miga.

Miga's path to the title match was just as littered with upset wins. The 10-seed Miga defeated 7-seed Connor Verga of Lawrence in Wednesday night's opening round and then buried 2-seed Anthony Bailey of Raritan in the first period of his Friday quarterfinal. Miga stamped his ticket to the final with a 7-3 semifinal win over 6-seed Jack Friedman of Long Branch.

In addition to Lamparelli and Miga, four other area wrestlers finished second in their regions. In Region 6, Northern Burlington's Brandon Totten avenged his surprising District 21 final loss to Wall's Cole Meyer by defeating Meyer in the semifinal at 113, 5-3. He lost in the final to top seeded and four time region championTyler Klinsky of Middletown North.

Allentown's Nick Golden also reached the final. Golden pinned his way through two rounds before falling in the final 3-2 to Red Bank Catholic's Sabino Portello, who won the championship out of the eighth seed.

Over in Region 5 at Franklin, both Princeton's James Romaine at 152 and Hopewell Valley's Christian Cacciabaudo at 220 were runners-up. While 3-seed Romaine came up short in the final in a 7-5 loss to top seed Michael McGee of Shore, he had an impressive tournament.

Romaine easily dispatched 6-seed Owen Fitzgerald of Middletown Southin the quarterfinals Friday night and then scored an impressive overtime win in the semifinals over 2-seed Anthony Romaniello of Hunterdon Central 11-10. Suffering through a late assault on top by Romaniello at the end of regulation, Romaine held on to force overtime and then parlayed a near fall in the second period of overtime to forge the victory.

Cacciabaudo, the sixth seed, was a sleeper at 220 as he surprised the weight's 3-seed, Joseph Porcaro of Sayreville 5-3 in the semifinals to earn his spot in the finals. He lost to 5-seed Michael Pavlinetz of Holmdel 7-2 in the final.

All of Hopewell's big three upper weights will be heading to Atlantic City as the two other members of the trio, 182 pounder Josh Beigman and Brian LaCross at 195 finished fourth in Region 5. Beigman, the fourth seed, had lost to top seed and eventual champion Blake Clayton of St. John Vianney in the semifinal while 5-seed La Cross lost his quarterfinal bout to 4-seed Alex Uryniak of North Hunterdon but wrestled all the way back to the consolation final.

Six other wrestlers will be heading to Atlantic City after placing fourth at Region 6. Hightstown produced three state qualifiers as Chris Stavrou at 195, Bryan Bonilla at 220 and Brenden Hansen at 285 all advanced, as did Allentown's Matt Paglia at 145 and Northern Burlington's Blake Geibel at 120.

Robbinsville's Drake Torrington caught a tough break in the seeding at 126, being stuck in the upper bracket with Freehold Boro's 1-seed Nico Messina. Still, 4-seed Torrington was able to defeat Wall's Mike Bruno 6-4 in the consolation semifinals to qualify for A.C.

Eight other area wrestlers placed at their regions but did not qualify for the state tournament. Hopewell Valley's Christian Micikas at 106 and Jacob Venezia at 113 both placed fifth at Region 5 while Northern Burlington's Brandon Rzuczek at 195 and Lawrence's Jake Dallarda at 160 and Mooamen Nasr at 285 finished fifth at Region 6.

Hightstowns Kether Thornton at 132 and Bordentowns Jason Baldorossi at 182 finished sixth in Region 6.

Skipping breakfast and snacking late at night could impact weight loss, new research suggests – Yahoo Sports

Posted: March 2, 2020 at 11:42 am

Skipping breakfast and snacking late at night could lead to a delay in the bodys ability to lose weight, new research has suggested.

If were trying to shed the pounds, we know we need to watch what we eat, how much we eat and how much we move, but according to a new study our ability to burn dietary calories could also be impacted by the time of day most of our food is consumed.

The study, published in the journalPLOS Biology,monitored the metabolism of middle-aged and older subjects in a whole-room respiratory chamber over two separate 56-hour sessions.

In each session, lunch and dinner were presented at the same times (12.30pm and 17.45pm, respectively), but the timing of the third meal differed between the two halves of the study.

In one of the 56-hour sessions, the additional daily meal was presented as breakfast (at 8:00) whereas in the other session, a nutritionally equivalent meal was given to the same subjects as a late-evening snack (22.00pm).

The duration of the overnight fast was the same for both sessions.

While the two sessions did not differ in the amount or type of food eaten, or in participants activity levels, the daily timing of the third meal had an impact on the amount of fat burned.

Researchers found that the late-evening snack session resulted in less fat burned when compared to the breakfast session.

Study authors said the circadian rhythm, or the body clock, is programmed to assist the body to burn fat when asleep.

As a consequence, skipping breakfast and then snacking at night could lead to a delay in the burning of the fat.

Based on their experimental observations, the researchers said the timing of meals during the day/night cycle could impact the extent to which ingested food is used versus stored.

The study team said their research could have wider implications for advising people on their eating habits, suggesting that a daily fast between the evening meal and breakfast could help optimise weight management.

This isnt the first time the health benefits of the overnight fast have been discussed.

Last year research suggested skippingbreakfast and eating a late dinner could lead to more serious outcomes after a heart attack.

Scientists found people who frequently bypassed brekkie and regularly ate dinner less than two hours before going to bed were far less likely to survive if they suffered a heart attack.

But there has also been some contradictory research in terms of whether eating breakfast can aid weight loss.

While eating breakfast has previously been thought to help aid weight loss, a further body of research suggests you may be better off without it.

Past studies have found aprotein-based morning meal or a bowl full ofoatsfirst thing could be the key to maintaining a steady weight and controlling your appetite later in the day.

But last year scientists from the Monash University in Melbourne found those who eat breakfast were found to have a higher energy consumption during the day (an average of 260 more calories) compared to those who skipped the morning meal.

Breakfast eaters also weighed, on average, almost half a kilogram more (0.44kg) compared to non-breakfast eaters.

Whats more, the scientists concluded skipping breakfast does not reduce appetite during the day, as previously thought.

The scientists werent the first to challenge the supposed link between eating breakfast and weight loss.

Followers of the popularintermittent fastingdiet will often skip breakfast in order to limit their eating window to later in the day.

In the Battle With Obesity, Your Doctor is Your Ally – UConn Today

Posted: March 2, 2020 at 11:42 am

With more than 93 million Americans believed to be affected by obesity, a collaboration of national organizations that launched Obesity Care Week is bringing it back for a sixth year, March 1 through 7. Among the objectives is to create a society that values science and clinically-based care.

Its an objective Dr. Varalakshmi Niranjan shares.

Niranjan is a UConn Health primary care physician whose expertise includes obesity medicine. She sees patients in UConn Healths West Hartford office, 65 Kane St.

Obesity is linked to more than 200 diseases and disorders, and its strain on the American health care system surpasses $425 billion, according to the Obesity Care Week organizers.

We associate obesity with disease, many that should be obvious to most of us by now, Niranjan says. Excess belly fat tops the list of risk factors that we refer to collectively as the metabolic syndrome. It is the root cause for heart disease, lipid problems, hypertension, type 2 diabetes and even things like dementia, cancer, polycystic ovarian syndrome and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Put another way, if we can treat or avoid obesity today, we wont have to deal with a lot of other problems tomorrow.

The designation of obese is based on a formula that takes into account a persons height and weight. This calculation yields whats known as the persons body mass index (BMI). A BMI ranging from 18.5 to 24.9 is considered normal. Less than 18.5 is considered underweight, 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, and a BMI of 30 or greater is considered obese.

Studies have shown that a reduction of 5% to 10% of body fat helps change the metabolic disease, Niranjan says. Lifestyle change with balanced nutrition and physical activity will help achieve this.

Niranjan offers a physician-supervised weight loss program. The focus is on realistic, sustainable weight loss that treats the sick fat disease.

If you look at it as a diet, to get down to your goal weight, and then you go back to what you were doing before, youll regain the weight, Niranjan says. You may want to focus on one change, get used to it, and then add another change.

A physician-supervised approach to weight loss can lead to a better scientific understanding of weight management, and more of a focus on the long game.

Remember it is neither a sprint race nor a marathon. It is a journey, Niranjan says. I tell patients, all calories are not equal. A piece of fresh fruit and a glass of fruit juice may have similar calorie counts, but the fresh fruit is a much better use of those calories, largely because of the fiber. The numbers on the nutrition label are important, but theyre just one part of making good decisions.

Working with a physician to treat obesity may present additional options for some patients, including certain medications or surgical intervention. Bariatric surgery has specific guidelines and physicians can make a referral for appropriate patients. Medications shown to treat obesity require a prescription.

With a multi-disciplinary approach obesity can be managed effectively and complications like blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, and joint pain can be controlled, Niranjan says. Lets work together and reverse this epidemic.

In the truest sense, Niranjan also walks the walk. Outside the clinic, she helps lead the UConn chapter of Walk With a Future Doc, which facilitates regularly scheduled free walk-and-talks with physicians, physician trainees, and members of the public. The group plans to resume the walks on the second and fourth Saturday of the month this spring.

March 4 is World Obesity Day.

The Obesity Action Coalition, the Obesity Society, the STOP Obesity Alliance, the Obesity Medicine Association, and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery collectively launched Obesity Care Week in 2015, to address what they describe as a lack of appropriate science and clinically-based care.

Former air hostess says 5st weight loss cured her asthma as she reveals incredible transformation – The Sun

Posted: March 2, 2020 at 11:42 am

TIPPING the scales at 16 stone, Sarah Jones knew something in her life desperately needed to change and sprung into action.

She could only fit into size 18-20 clothes and her weight gain was making her asthma dramatically worsen.

7

However, Sarah, 52, who is from Henley-in-Arden, Warks, was given a much-needed wake-up call at a former colleague's birthday party - when her confidence dived around her slim pals.

Determined to do something about her ever-growing size, Sarah decided to join her mum at a local Slimming World group.

Sarah has since shed an impressive five stone and has finally regained her confidence.

She said: "I was determined to lose five stone.

"The unfailing encouragement and support from other members became the lifeline that helped me all the way to my target.

"Now I'm back down to a size 12, I feel glamorous again."

7

7

Sarah had first piled on the pounds after giving birth to her children Courtney and Alex.

"During my years working as a cabin crew member in my 20s, I was a size 12-14," she explained.

"But, after giving birth to my daughter Courtney, I decided not to return to the airline.

"When my son Alex came along three years later, I really struggled to lose the baby weight.

"I thought simply restricting my portions would work.

7

"I was getting so hungry each evening though that I started going to bed at the same time as the children to try to stop myself from snacking.

"But it was no way to live, so I soon gave up completely and my weight began to rise again."

However, Sarah's turning point came one evening in 2013 after getting all glammed up for a party with colleagues she had not seen in 20 years.

I hid at the back of the group every time a camera came out

And her confidence plummeted when she was finally reunited with her slim friends - and instantly felt self-conscious when the camera came out.

She said: "I'd spent ages on my hair and make-up and was wearing a black, stretchy size 18-20 dress I'd bought especially.

"It was the only one in the shop that had fitted without looking "too bad" or so I'd thought at the time.

"Now, as I caught sight of my still-slim friends, I felt really self-conscious. I hid at the back of the group every time a camera came out."

7

And as Sarah and her friends reminisced about the "good old days", she couldn't help but wonder if her pals were looking at her thinking: "She's really let herself go."

At the time Sarah was the biggest she'd ever been and her asthma was getting worse as her weight increased.

She added: "And, on a recent holiday to Spain, I'd struggled so badly to get up a hill that I thought I'd be going down it again in an ambulance."

Sarah decided she desperately needed to make a change so decided to join her mum at a local SlimmingWorld group in Claverdon, Warks in January 2014.

7

Sarah's diet before and after

BEFORE

Breakfast: Toast, cereal or McDonalds breakfast

Lunch: Supermarket meal deal with sandwich, crisps and full-fat cola

Dinner: Takeaway curry

Snacks: Doritos

AFTER

Breakfast: Porridge with blueberries, raspberries and banana

Lunch: Slimming World turkey burgers, salad and Slimming World wedges

Dinner: Slimming world curry

Snacks: Satsumas

Speaking about her first session, she said: "As I stood on the scales for the first time, my tummy was in knots. And when 16st 3lbs appeared, I couldn't believe it.

"Stepping off, I knew what my target was going to be. I was determined to lose five stone.

"Tuesday night at the group would be my night - a time to focus on me."

Sarah has credited the "unfailing encouragement and support from other members" for helping her to reach her target weight.

And she admits she never felt like she was depriving herself with the Slimming World recipes.

7

"I found Slimming World great to follow because the recipes are so nice and I didn't feel like there were things I couldn't have," Sarah added.

"I would encourage anyone to give it a go.

"My asthma is so much better since my weight loss, I now don't even use an inhaler."

Sarah enjoyedSlimming World so much that, in 2015, she became a consultant herself and now runs groups in Claverdon and Henley-in-Arden.

Study says herbal supplements may not be effective for weight loss – Greater Milwaukee Today

Posted: March 2, 2020 at 11:42 am

If youve relied on taking herbal supplements to aid in weight loss, a recently published study has news for you.

Researchers at the University of Sydney conducted the first worldwide study of herbal medicines for weight loss in nearly two decades. Their findings suggest there isnt enough evidence to recommend present treatments.

These findings come despite some herbal medicines showing statistically more weight loss than placebos. The weight loss was less than 5.5 pounds, meaning its not of clinical significance, according to a news release from the University of Sydney.

This finding suggests there is insufficient evidence to recommend any of these herbal medicines for the treatment of weight loss. Furthermore, many studies had poor research methods or reporting and even though most supplements appear safe for short-term consumption, they are expensive and are not going to provide a weight loss that is clinically meaningful, said lead author Dr. Nick Fuller of the University of Sydneys Boden Collaboration for Obesity, Nutrition, Exercise and Eating Disorders.

Researchers conducted a systematic analysis and review published in the journal Diabetes, Obesity & Metabolism. The study reviewed the most recent global research for herbal medicines and weight loss by locating 54 randomized and controlled experiments that compared the effect of herbal medicines to placebo for weight loss in more than 4,000 participants.

Herbal medicines, or herbal supplements, are products that contain a plant or a combination of plants as the primary ingredient. Those aimed at weight loss can be composed of white kidney bean, green tea and African mango.

According to the studys authors, 1,000 weight loss dietary supplements were included on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods without evaluation of efficacy between 1996 and 2006.

The problem with supplements is that unlike pharmaceutical drugs, clinical evidence is not required before they are made available to the public in supermarkets or chemists, Fuller said.

The supplements can be sold and marketed to the public with sponsors defined as those who import, export or manufacture goods required to have but not necessarily provide evidence backing their claims. Just 20% of new listings are annually audited to make sure the sponsors meet the requirement, the authors noted.

The growth in the industry and popularity of these products highlights the importance of conducting more robust studies on the effectiveness and safety of these supplements for weight loss, Fuller said.
