The wonderful world of nutritional supplements: the myth sfatiamone! Sport

In yesterday's post we saw how the real sport, in the sense of "racing", is actually harmful to health and what should be the ultimate goal of any physical activity: physical, mental and social well-being, health-oriented and prevention. . . Today

touch another hot topic that concerns the world of nutritional supplement products, as anticipated yesterday, increasingly complex and diverse and is becoming more and more powerfully in the world of fitness and wellness, taking with him all his wealth of misinformation and misconceptions and a booming market.

you think is really so far the integration Food from the reckless use of drugs? Maybe yes, maybe no, the fact is that the current sport psychology tends to define this behavior as a kind of behavioral psychology related to the philosophy of doping, "and always take food supplements to improve their performance and style of life.
The document will explain later was drafted by a set of associations for the protection of consumers, by an expert in public health and an expert in health education, its purpose is just to point out the potential danger related reckless use of dietary supplements.

My advice is that dietary supplementation andrebbe effettuata solo sotto controllo medico e dopo adeguate ed approfondite analisi del sangue che ne determinino le effettive carenze e il possibile impatto che queste possono avere nell'attività sportiva e nella vita di tutti i giorni.
Da professionista delle scienze motorie tendo a sconsigliare l'utilizzo di questi prodotti.

Personalmente sarei più propenso a seguire le indicazioni del prof. Umberto Veronesi per una vita sana: non fumare, praticare una regolare attività fisica, bere molta acqua (quella del rubinetto va benissimo) e seguire una dieta sana mangiando molta frutta e verdura.

Ecco a voi un approfondimento sui recenti studi riguardanti il mondo degli integratori alimentari e i rischi ad esso correlati:



Summary . The preparations
antioxidant vitamins - such as vitamins A, E, beta carotene
- cronicodegenerative
protect against disease (and not do damage
)? Unfortunately not
. There is strong evidence that pharmacological doses
,
not be reached with a healthy diet, and can not protect
increase mortality. The abuse of antioxidant vitamin preparations

is a problem not to be overlooked.
In the United States 35% of adults and elderly
take multivitamin supplements, in Italy about 10% of seniors said
use by 'several times per month "to" daily ", but such practices are not mass
supported by scientific evidence.
Take for example the vitamin (vitamin) E. Since that contained in food have antioxidant action
, many studies have used vitamin supplements. And to prevent chronic diseases
, but the results were disappointing. Three recent analysis of clinical trials have not
found no effect on survival, but several studies have reported high-dose increases
trend of total mortality and a study of over 9000 patients with cardiovascular disease or diabetes
followed for 7 years showed a
a significant increase of heart failure (+13%) and hospitalizations due to heart (+21%).


Miller's research on the prestigious journal JAMA has published a systematic search with
combined analysis of all valid studies (called randomized controlled trials)
with at least one year duration and reported that the total mortality, which is a clinically important indicator
indisputable and not subject to possible misinterpretation.
The study included 19 randomized controlled trials with nearly 136,000 participants and 12,500 deaths
, trust is very high and the results are solid.
various doses of vitamin used. It is expressed in units internazionali al giorno (UI) e coprono
tutti i livelli possibili, da 16,5 a 2000 UI, con un valore mediano di 400 UI.
La ricerca ha avuto un finanziamento della casa farmaceutica Roche, che produce vitamine:
ciò rende ancor più credibili le conclusioni, che non sono state certo a favore dei
supplementi vitaminici, come si vedrà.
Risultati
La mortalità totale per dosi minori di 400 UI al giorno non è aumentata, mentre per
dosi uguali o maggiori di 400 UI l’aumento è stato del 4%, statisticamente
significativo. L’analisi delle risposte in relazione alle dosi mostra un aumento di rischio
abbastanza regolare con l’aumento di dose oltre 150 UI (che
is practically the maximum he could get a diet alone), without differences by sex, age or duration
recruitment in several studies. Concomitant use of other vitamin supplements in addition to
vit. Slightly increased mortality.
The results can be extended at least to all persons similar to those studied (ie
adults and the elderly with cardiovascular risk factors or chronic diseases), which are also those where the consumption of vitamin preparations. It is the greatest. In addition, the duration of intake of vitamin
. And in the studies was considered significant (up to over 8 years, with an average of almost
5) and the effect was consistent in different studies with the dose used.

Conclusions
vitamin supplements. And, especially when taken in high doses, may be associated with
multiple deleterious effects, including increased oxidation and increased aging
tissue (ie the opposite of the effects achieved with physiological doses of this vitamin
) and anticoagulant effects.
doses equal to or greater than 400 IU per day of vitamin E are associated with increased mortality
total.

Comment
The damaging effects of medium and high doses of vit. It is even more unacceptable because
do not protect against certain chronic diseases for which
have been proposed as dementia and macular degeneration of the retina
of age, and increase the severity of acute respiratory infections in elderly
.
In a large representative sample of the adult population in the United States consumption of vitamin
median. And with diet alone was 9 IU (with a maximum range of variation
from 0.04 to 183 IU), while 11, 3% of Americans used supplements
with at least 400 IU, ie levels that expose a increase in overall mortality.
In Italy the official value recommended by the RDAs 3 is about 12 IU, but it is recommended
to increase it to a higher consumption of polyunsaturated fats (which is actually good

The authors stress the 7-esteem of thousands of excess deaths for every million people who take vitamin preparations for about 3 years
antioxidants at doses commonly used by the populations studied (on average, every day or every other day, 18 mg the
beta-carotene, 20,000 IU for the victims. A, 570 IU for vitamin. E, 490 mg for the vitamin. C and 99 micrograms for selenium
: compare with Appendix). In addition, the authors
conclusions are particularly robust, since it is one of the subjects studied
more and better in health. What's more, the trend has been well demonstrated to publish the results
less favorable to the interventions and medicines that are tested in clinical trials
, because sponsors typically have less reason to disseminate information
unfavorable to their products. Therefore the authors of this great
review of published studies on the relationship between antioxidant vitamins and mortality consider that their conclusions can already be so alarming
even optimistic than the reality.
Indeed, the increase in lung cancer and mortality in smokers and workers exposed to asbestos
treated with beta-carotene and vit. A has been known for over a decade. Several studies
supplements beta-carotene also showed an increased risk of prostate cancer
and adenomas or benign tumors of the large intestine (which may be precursors of colon cancer
). The accumulation of negative evidence has led the AIFA (Italian Drug Agency
, which operates within guidelines and under the supervision of the Ministry of Health
) to require manufacturers of medicinal products that use beta-carotene
as excipients (ie inactive as a vehicle) to replace or reduce it: the amount acceptable daily
introduced through such products must be less than 2 mg.
The use of vitamin supplements. A is also associated with an increased risk of hip fractures. So

a healthy diet. This seems to confirm that the amounts of antioxidants are healthy

, and that we should prescribe this drug
power rather than supplements.
More generally, outside of deficiencies documented, there are valid reasons why
large segments of the population take vitamin preparations, with few exceptions such as folic acid
for women attempting to conceive, the vit. B12 for the elderly with atrophic gastritis and
vit. D (which deserves separate treatment). But even in these cases, excessive doses
are no risks.
Today millions of Italians make use of medicines based on vitamins, with private spending
of € 150 million (plus another million to be paid by the National Health Service)
largely unjustified. Be aware of the risks (so far underestimated)
indiscriminate and prolonged intake of these drugs, especially if the doses are clearly higher than those achievable by
nutrition, and choose healthier alternatives.

What Does The 12 Stand For On Alabama Helmet

true it hurts!

true it hurts! A strong statement and certainly unpopular in a world aimed at mythologizing the phenomena competitive sports, which increasingly tend to gravitate around the concept of "business".
The competitive spirit, intent to churn heroes of our time, is often shown in advertisements so distorted.

performance anxiety and competition in the athlete generates a lot of stress both physically and emotionally, and today it is scientifically known that stress is the number one enemy of our immune system. The physical skills are often taken to excess and extremes through hard training sessions and sometimes exhausting, leading, long-term wear on the tissues involved.
How well you know your body and mind are two interdependent aspects of the same unit, and therefore any physical stress it is a psychic, and vice versa. Under these conditions, it is not difficult to find classic pathological conditions of the sporting world racing: anorexia, bulimia, bigoressia.

is worth spending a few words about the new "bigoressia" (from "big", big) that is depopulating between young aspiring body builder: look in the mirror and see a small, too small, too skinny, have an obsession to increase their muscle mass, to expand more and more, obviously trying to make up for any lack psycho-emotional and socio-relational.

And as a chain of events that follow a law of cause and effect, everything goes to lead one of the greatest scourges of modern day world of sport: doping.

And in addition to the doping itself depopulate the high-protein diets, dieting DIY and all the counter products such as vitamins, nutritional supplements, energy drinks, protein bars and miraculous tablets that certainly are not healthy and that lead practitioners Sports Young and old alike, toward a kind of behavioral psychology related to the philosophy of doping. "

All this has diverted attention the real purpose of the practice of sport should have. The sport, or more correctly, the motor activity is a powerful tool for health, for the prevention of many diseases and to achieve physical, mental and social well-being.

But how to implement this change of direction?

From antiquity to the present day has always understood the importance of exercise and has always sought to establish the criteria of effectiveness, which could bring him on the path of health and wellness. . .


Hippocrates: "If we are unable to provide people with the right amount of nourishment and exercise or physical defect or in excess we found the road to health. " (460-377 BC)

Plato: "the lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, on the contrary, the methodical movement and exercise the conservation and preservation." (428-348 BC)

Joseph H. Pilates: "Physical activity is forced into a stressful and harmful to the body and mind, as much as it does not move at all ... Not well planned and executed with precision in a balanced sequence has the same value of hours and without contortions forced roughly. " (1883-1967 AD)

World Health Organization Health: "Health is defined as a state of complete physical, mental and social."


Today's sports psychology offers a model of wellness (physical, psychological and socio-relational), designed to develop an education designed to raise awareness of the value of the body, understood as an expression of personality, as a means of relational communication , expressive, operating beyond the sterile consumption patterns imposed by today's society that has an urgent need to appear completely forgetting the deeper need that is related to the Self.

In this way, the movement becomes a wonderful means of education health for all individuals of all ages.

Scientific experiments have shown the best qualities of intensity, duration and frequency of exercise:

should carry out physical activity between 60-80% of VO2 max for 30-50 minutes, 3-4 times a week .

In general, activities that meet these guidelines are those belonging to the category of the footing, from the lightest to heaviest, the walking, jogging and running, ie those activities that refer to the so-called "light jog."

Alongside this activity of aerobic, there is a diversity of activities anaerobiche, da poter affiancare, che preservano e mirano al raggiungimento di uno stato di benessere psicofisico, primo tra tutti lo Yoga, ma anche ad esempio il metodo Pilates, o comunque tutti quegli sport praticati a livello dilettantistico che ci piacciono, che ci divertono, che ci mettono di buon umore e ci fanno star bene, allontanando da noi lo stress e non causandolo!

A bit 'of autobiography - a little autobiography

Sono nato in una calda sera d’ aprile nel bel mezzo di quei magnifici anni ‘80 a Potenza, il capoluogo (più alto d’Italia) di quella regione conosciuta come “la Svizzera del sud Italia”.

Dopo un’infanzia felice ed un’adolescenza passata praticando vari sport come swimming, volleyball and judo, I attend the high school and began practicing 16 years and soft body building and fitness since then I have not stopped, passionate about everything related to the welfare and above all holistic disciplines, namely those disciplines that provide for the mind-body connection, such as yoga, biofeedback, but also the gymnastics and Pilates.

In these years the desire to increase my knowledge in corporate and psychomotor urge me to attend a drama workshop and some by chance begin my first experience on stage and on camera during the making of short films. After high school

I found myself with great indecision faced with the choice of university faculty .... I loved biology, chemistry, but that history and philosophy and I realized it was really hard to make a choice when it is just age.
Eventually, in 2006, I decided it was time to choose those who had always been my inclination and my interests and I enrolled in a degree course in physical sciences to address biomedical University "Parthenope" of Naples. Years
very beautiful and very important ones of the university, where I served for two consecutive terms the role of student representative to the faculty council and the board of education coordination , Getting a lot of personal satisfaction and a very big wins.

During this period I work for a local newspaper, dealing with the drafting of sports goods such as public relations manager of a women's basketball team in the series B National.
In July, 2009 (in just 32 months, grant me this bit of pride!) I graduate, getting the maximum votes in the discussion of the thesis and compliments of the Committee for a final grade of 108/110 ... I remember him as one of the best days and satisfying of my life.

As mentioned above, a period of rich experiences, the most varied, from stage to television journalism and management in a local TV station Sky to the first circuit at various parades and beauty contests that I see the 4th in 2008 to Mr. and beautiful in Italy fashion-winning Italy coach in 2009, until landing in Tv, on the first and Raidue Raiuno onwards.

currently live and work in Rome, where I divide between my studies specialist (alas, I realized that the degree is not a point of arrival but it is only a starting point ...!) And my passion for Tv


Regarding my studies, in the wide panorama of Sciences, my interest has always delivered for the most educational aspects and educational purposes.
I deal mainly with the construction of theoretical models of efficiency motor learning in the disciplines aimed at achieving and maintaining the well-being. During this activity
independent research, still ongoing, I have devised an innovative method called "Cromogym, which provides for the integration of yoga, Pilates and color therapy.
I work as a freelancer with gyms, fitness and wellness centers for the exercises, the Pilates, relaxation techniques, yoga, personal training and body sculputure.
After graduation I completed in holistic disciplines, becoming Reiki master (Usui third level system), trainer of Energy Psychology (PEAT method) operator in California and massage at the 'ISU (Institute for Human Sciences in Rome), currently enrolled in the master's degree in science of prevention and rehabilitation activities at the University "Parthenope" of Naples.
Recently I started to treat this blog where I expose insights and curiosities on the now increasingly complex world of fitness and wellness, without any scientific pretensions, but trying to give information and instructions simple and straightforward, accessible to all, including those without a background in cultural matters.
I believe in the validity of the holistic view of the individual and my personal experience has led me to the conclusion that today a framework for psychological well-being reaches its goal with maximum efficiency only if it remains isolated and only if you open the "contamination" and therefore the contribution of other disciplines with the same purpose, becoming in effect a discipline "integrated".

And with this I hope not to have bored you, but instead you got a 'very clear idea about who I am and what I am, and I very much hope that you find interesting, useful and (why not?)'s Sometimes funny I will propose topics on this blog!
a bitch!
