Authors from the book  "The Sicilian Secret Diet Plan", Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile discuss "Introducing Solid Foods to Babies". 

"The main source of food and nutrition for the baby for the first four to six months should be exclusively breast milk or formula when the mother cannot for whatever reason use breast milk. So when and how to start introducing solid foods to your child? The most important thing is to observe when your child is ready. The academy of pediatrics in the United States has recommended six months as a date to start. The baby has to be able to hold the head steady to avoid choking. They must be able to sit up-right in a chair. They have to start to be curious about the food that is around them. Once the baby is interested, you might know that they are finally ready."

Authors from the book  "The Sicilian Secret Diet Plan", Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile discuss Sex Drive, Fertility and Pregnancy. 

"Fertility is a person's ability to conceive children. A woman is considered infertile if she's unable to get pregnant after at least one year of unprotected sex. Fertility of course also includes the male partner's ability to get the woman pregnant. Many of the lifestyle factors that affect fertility, affect both the man and the woman. Approximately, 15% of couples in the U.S. are infertile. Evidence shows that nutrition can play a significant role in fertility. Healthy diets such as the Mediterranean diet which is naturally high in unsaturated fats, whole grains, vegetables and fish promote fertility. "

Authors from the book  "The Sicilian Secret Diet Plan", Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile discuss how different foods interact with each other as well as the benefits of eating in season.

"A benefit of buying local and in season is that the carbon footprint is much better and is important for sustainable agriculture.  More water is needed to grow produce out of season, so water resources are  strained. Supporting local farmers helps sustain the local economy and helps the local farmer maintain quality soil and helps support the workers of that farm."

Many fans and podcast listeners have been reaching out to Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile to understand more about Macro and Micronutrients.

"The National Academy of Medicine recommends that adults get a minimum of 0.8 grams of protein for every kilogram of body weight per day, or just over 7 grams for every 20 pounds of body weight. [1] This is probably not enough, most of the data support that the minimum amount should be close to 1,2 grams per kilogram which in pounds is 0.6 or .7 per pounds, and for athletes and older people should be closer to 1.6 per kilogram, after that amount we can’t use it.  As we age unfortunately, we start eating less proteins.
For 70 kilos person, that means about 80 grams of protein each day."

Many fans and podcast listeners have been reaching out to Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile to understand more about Macro and Micronutrients. 

“We’re going to talk about another very important macronutrient and that would be “fat”. Fat is necessary. We have to eat small amounts of fat. There are some kinds of fats like fatty acids which the body cannot produce on its’ own. That’s why we have to make sure to introduce them with our diet. Just as all carbohydrates are not created equal, similarly, not all fats are created equal. So we are going to learn about the fats that are actually helpful as well as the fats which are not. In fact, the Mediterranean diet and our Sicilian version of the Mediterranean diet is a high fat diet. These diets may be high in fat but they are actually high in “good” fats. Some examples of our favorite high in fat ingredients are avocados, olives, and nuts… “

Many fans and podcast listeners have been reaching out to understand more about Macro and Micronutrients. Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile open up the conversation and focus on Macro nutrients in this week's podcast. 

Micronutrients refer mainly to vitamins and minerals that are essential for optimal health. 

Micronutrients are essential for life, especially for growth of cells, bone health, the production of ATP or energy molecules in the cells, the proper function of our immune system, and helping the blood coagulation system so that we can stop bleeding when we need to. Each micronutrient has a specific role in maintaining optimal function of cells and many important physiological functions. A severe insufficiency of micronutrients can result in specific diseases; however, a relative decrease can result in suboptimal cellular function.

Many fans and podcast listeners have been reaching out to understand more about Macro and Micronutrients. Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile open up the conversation and focus on Macro nutrients in this week's podcast. 

Macronutrients are the nutrients that people require regularly and in large quantities to create the energy needed to perform bodily functions and physical activities.
Macronutrients are proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, some people also include water as part of macronutrients. Most of the body’s energy and calories come from macronutrients. Each type of macronutrient has its own benefits and purpose in maintaining a healthy body. The exact amount of each macronutrient a person requires varies based on the individual weight, age, and pre-existing health conditions.

Join Dr. Cammarata and Dr. Campanile on this week's episode about Flavonoids. 

Flavonoids are naturally found in fruits, vegetables, wine, tea and chocolate.

Best known flavonoids: 
Quercetin, kaempferol, catechins and anthocyanidins

Responsible for the rich colors of fruits and vegetables such as blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and blackberries.

There are over 6000 known flavonoids 

Most Americans get flavonoids from: 
Flavon-3-ols in black and green tea. It is recommended that we get 1000 mg of flavonoids per day which would be 6-10 servings of fruit and vegetables 
– Most Americans get less than 250mg daily.

These are Antioxidants which prevent or slow damage to cells caused by free radicals that our bodies produce as a reaction to environmental stress such as radiation and pollution.

-Flavanols – Onions, Grapes, Red Wine, Tea, Peaches, Berries, Tomatoes, Broccoli, quercetin, kaempferol

-Flavon-3-ols – green and white tea (cathechins, gallocathechins, epicathechins and theaflavins), apples, blueberries, strawberries, cocoa

-Flavones – parsley, red peppers, chamomile, peppermint

-Flavanones – lemons, limes, oranges, grapefruit

-Isoflavones – soy, fava beans

-Anthocyanins – give red, purple and blue color such as red and purple grapes, red wine, cranberries, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, etc.

Benefits:
Lower Blood Pressure – Multiple Studies

Reduce Risk of DM2 – a Meta Analysis in 2018 showed that a diet rich in flavonoids 

reduce DM2

Anti-Cancer – Studies have shown that flavonoids help reduce the ability of cancers 

to grow

Anti-Inflammatory – the can inhibit cyclo-oxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX)

Heart – They reduce to production of oxLDL, which reduces atherosclerosis.

They also improve endothelial function – a study showed that by adding foods

rich in flavonoids 

Such as oregano, rosemary, garlic and black pepper to a meal significantly 

improved endothelial

Function after a meal.

They also have anti-platelet effects, reducing the risk of heart attacks and 

strokes.

Brain Health – Flavonoids help reduce the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease

Cancer – they probably help reduce the risk of all cancers, but there is good 

evidence for breast and lung 

Detox – they help both phase 1 and phase 2 detox

Fresh fruits and vegetables have a much higher flavonoid content than stored or transported produce – the closer to the time of harvesting the higher the flavonoid content.

(However, to get the heart health benefits, one must ingest 6-10 serving of vegetables plus fruit.)

Also, high or prolonged heat can reduce the flavonoid content – so steaming or brief sautéing is best – cooking for less than 8 minutes.

The skin typically has the highest content of flavonoids – so it is important to wash 

the produce well and consume the skin or purchase organic foods.
