I-Min Lee et. al. Lancet Vol 380 July 21, 2012

Inactivity causes 9% (range 5.1–12.5)

of premature mortality, or more than 5.3 million of the 57 million

deaths that occurred worldwide in 2008.

If inactivity were not eliminated, but decreased instead by 10% or 25%,

more than 533 000 and more than 1.3 million deaths, respectively, could

be averted every year. We estimated that elimination of physical

inactivity would increase the life expectancy of the world’s population

by 0.68 (range 0.41–0.95) years

Effect of physical inactivity on major non-communicable

diseases worldwide: an analysis of burden of disease

and life expectancy

What is mindfulness?

The skill of being deliberately attentive to one’s

experience as it unfolds-without the superimposition of

our usual commentary and conceptualizing.

HEALTHY LIFESTYLES ARE ASSOCIATED WITH HIGHER NATURAL KILLER CELL ACTIVITY

• Kusaka et al.

• Looked at: smoking, alcohol, sleep, exercise, breakfast, balanced nutrition, hours of work, and mental stress

• Conclusion: Higher NK activity with healthy lifestyle practices may reflect an increase in the cytolytic potential of NK cell activity within the CD16 and CD57 subset

• CD16-Fc receptor of IgG Ab activates Ab dependent cell mediated toxicity

• CD57-distinct mature NK cell=more potent lytic activity

DNA METHYLATION• One way to control gene expression

Page 46: the science of lifestyle medicine - American College of... · THE SCIENCE OF LIFESTYLE MEDICINE Corey Howard, MD, FACP, FMNM Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology, Anti-Aging, Functional

METHYLATION REVIEW

• Addition of CH3 (methyl) group to DNA/RNA, neurotransmitters, hormones, immune cells, nerves, environmental toxins

• This modification in DNA alters gene expression

• Methylation of DNA helps to “lock” genes in an off position

• Methylation cycle involved with: detoxification, immune function, Maintaining DNA, energy production, mood balancing, controlling inflammation

• Basic nutrients needed: B12, glycine, serine, B6, selenium, cysteine, methionine and folic acid

• Alcohol

• Sugar

• Processed and canned foods

• Animal protein increases homocysteine

• Saturated fats

WHAT CAN LIFESTYLE CHANGE?

• Reduce and reverse coronary disease

• Reduce prostate cancer: Ornish D et al. Journal of Urology. 2005;174:1065

• Affects gene expression in a short time

• Down regulate different oncogenes that promote prostate and breast cancer

• Decrease aging process through telomeres

Conclusions.— More regression of coronary atherosclerosis

occurred after 5 years than after 1 year in the experimental

group. In contrast, in the control group, coronary

atherosclerosis continued to progress and more than twice as

many cardiac events occurred.

SUMMARY

• Only able to scratch the surface

• Obesity can cause many chronic diseases-PREVENTABLE

• Inactivity can cause many chronic diseases-PREVENTABLE

• We need to rethink our definition of health

• We need to emphasize nutrition as a health habit

• Empower patients to help themselves
