Weight gain and antidepressants: Emotional eating, indifference and effects on appetite.

health No Comments »

Antidepressants such as SSRIs can cause weight gain in some people and weight loss in others. We explain how that works:
1. Weight loss is often about their effect of SSRIs on increasing indifference which may then reduce emotional eating.
2. Weight gain is with SSRIs is often about their effects on increasing someone’s indifference in their food choices.

This clip explains how SSRI/SNRI affect sensitivity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_7LwL5EmAs

Other antidepressants like Tricyclic antidepressants and Mirtazapine can cause sedation because of their antihistamine effects on increasing appetite. Thats why some medications which cause drowsiness also cause increased appetite.

SSRIs include aropax/paroxetine, zoloft/sertraline, prozac/fluoxetine, luvox/fluvoxamine, lexapro/escitalopram and cipramil/citalopram. The mostly interact with the SERT protein to increase serotonin residence in the synapse. They minimally affect the Histamine receptor.

Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA) include endep/amitriptyline, anafranil/clomipromine, dothiepin, nortriptyline etc. Generally have significant effect on Serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake (SERT and NET) as well as hitting specific serotonin receptors (e.g. clomipramine avidly binds 5-HT2c and 5-HT6). They bind Alpha1 and potently bind H1.

Mirtazepine (Avanza) is a tetracyclic antidepressant, also called a “noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant”, but it’s not very specific. While it has negligible effect on serotonin or noradrenaline reuptake (negligible SERT or NET effect) but strongly interacts with a number of other receptors including serotonergic 5-HT2C, 5-HT3, Alpha2A, Alpha2C and H1.

How to use METFORMIN for DIABETES including doses, side effects & more! (Glucophage / Fortamet)

health No Comments »

In this video Doctor O’Donovan explains key facts you need to know about a medication called METFORMIN used to treat type 2 diabetes (also known as Glucophage, Fortamet, Axpinet, Diagemet, Glucient, Metabet).

In the video we cover:

What is metformin? (0.36)
Who can and can’t take it? (1.34)
How to take it (2.36)
Side effects (4.49)
Use in pregnancy (7.40)
Interactions (8.15)

Key facts
– Not everyone gets diabetes symptoms, so taking metformin may not make you feel any different. That does not mean it is not working, so keep on taking it.

– It’s best to take metformin with a meal to reduce the side effects.
The most common side effects are feeling and being sick, diarrhoea, stomach ache and loss of appetite. Vitamin B12 deficiency is also a common side effect of taking metformin in higher doses or for long periods.

– Metformin does not cause weight gain, unlike some other diabetes medicines.

– If you have diabetes, you can get free prescriptions for all of your medicines, not just your diabetes ones. You’ll need to have a medical exemption certificate.

I'm pregnant, and losing my appetite and weight. What can I do? Will this hurt my baby?

health No Comments »

I'm pregnant, and losing my appetite and weight. What can I do? Will this hurt my baby?

You mentioned that you’re 16 weeks along, and up to this point, you’ve lost 6 pounds because you’re just not interested in eating, it’s more of a lack of appetite. And this could be due to the nausea that you’re feeling during pregnancy. And if that’s the case, talk with your OB provider, and number 1, they’ll be able to tell you if this weight loss is okay for you, based on your pre-pregnancy weight, and number 2, they may be able to prescribe a medication that will help you get over the nausea so that you’ll want to eat. But as for what to eat to increase your desire to eat, that’s entirely up to you. If something sounds good, then eat it. But you should fill your diet full of whole grains, lots of fruits, lots of vegetables, lean protein, low-fat dairy, and healthy fat. So if you can, choose a protein and a good healthy carbohydrate, like fruits or a wholegrain, to eat with each meal and snack.

And maybe try eating more frequent and smaller meals throughout the day instead of eating 3 large ones. And you might find that just keeping your stomach a little bit full all the time with a protein and a healthy carbohydrate will also ease your nausea, and maybe help you eat the amount of calories you need, and gain the appropriate amount of weight. The amount that you should gain during pregnancy is based on your pre-pregnancy weight, and again, your doctor will be able to advise you on what that is for you, based on their knowledge of your situation.

Don’t forget to keep taking a prenatal vitamin too. A lot of people think you just take that while you’re trying to conceive, but it’s also important to take over the course of the entire pregnancy and while you’re breastfeeding, because it helps to ensure that you and your growing baby have the nutrition you need. So that’s important too, in addition to a healthy diet. Good luck with everything, and if you have any other questions for me in the future, feel free to ask them on our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/IntermountainMoms, and recommend us to your friends and family too.

How I stopped emotional eating | Mel Robbins

health No Comments »

Yesterday I caught myself emotional eating. I made myself a hot fudge sundae at 2 o’clock in the afternoon. If you find yourself grazing in the kitchen and not knowing why, get your head out of the fridge for a sec to get a grip on what’s going on:

True hunger develops slowly over time.
Emotional hunger comes on suddenly.

If you feel full, all good.
If you feel guilty it may have been some emotional eating.

Please do not make yourself wrong if you realize you too have been emotional eating. Food and emotions get complicated. To empower yourself, try to stay conscious about whether you’re truly hungry or you’re feeding emotional hunger.

Try this:

If you can name the deeper feeling that’s making you reach for a sundae in the middle of the day, that self awareness gives you the power to make a choice.

There’s nothing wrong with having a sundae at 2pm if that empowers you. Being conscious about what you’re doing and WHY is the key.

I promised I would report back and today I’m following my own advice, by paying attention to what I’m feeling and it’s working- I haven’t fed my emotions, instead I’ve just felt them.

Should I Eat if I Am Not Hungry (NO Appetite)? – Dr. Berg on Loss of Appetite

Take Dr. Berg’s Free Keto Mini-Course: http://pxlme.me/-i717vtY or go here: https://bit.ly/2JbISDo

In this video, Dr. Berg talks about appetite.

Food has two purposes, one is for fuel and the other is for nutrients. Most people if they go longer than a day without eating are deficient in nutrients, especially if they are starting out on ketosis and intermittent fasting.

You need to use common sense and take into consideration that your body does require a certain amount of nutrients. If you are not hungry, also look and ask yourself – am I getting the nutrients I need or not.

Talk to a Product Advisor to find the best product for you!

Helping Older Adults with Appetite Loss

health No Comments »

Unfortunately, loss of appetite and many associated negative outcomes is a common problem for many older adults. The National Institutes for Health (NIH) estimate that between 10% and 30% of older adults experience a decreased appetite. While there are numerous reasons for loss of appetite including side effects of certain medications, decreased energy, and various health conditions, it is important to help seniors improve their appetite and encourage them to maintain a healthy diet. I experienced this with my mother, who lived in a skilled nursing home the last couple years of her life. As her appetite diminished, so did her health and well-being.
