Diet, Depression, and Anxiety

Everyone has a downer of a day now and then. The kind where you just have the blues and are feeling low. Similarly, everyone has fears and things that induce nervousness. Find some dietary tips for how to boost your mood in our article How Nutrients Affect Mood and Behavior and the biological pathways they work through in our article This is Your Brain on Food. In this article, the focus is whether or not diet can help treat depression and anxiety.

Depression and anxiety often get lumped together because they share symptoms. An unpleasant situation could bring about both a sense of hopelessness and deep fear. The two are separate diagnoses though, and each has different variations. Treatment may include medications, therapy, and self-care, which includes diet, and is just as important as other forms of treatment.

Eating and Depression and Anxiety

You just crushed your workday, how do you celebrate? Your latest project proposal got rejected, your friend canceled plans last minute, and now you are home alone feeling down about your day. You go into the kitchen and…

We tend to eat a certain way because we feel a certain way, and likewise, we feel a certain way because of our eating habits. What we eat influences the production and suppression of neurotransmitters and hormones. Quite naturally, we tend to gravitate towards foods that boost levels of “feel-good” neurotransmitters, like dopamine, when we are down. But what comes first? The depression and anxiety or food choices? For depression and anxiety, the answer is likely neither; the relationship between diet and depression is bidirectional.

When diagnosed with depression or anxiety, we don’t have only a bad day or one day of jitters and fears. Depression and anxiety can become lifelong partners, which is why eating for mental health every day can play such a significant role in the treatment of these disorders and comes recommended by many doctors.

The Science of Diet and Depression and Anxiety

Uncovering the connections between diet, depression, and anxiety is complicated by comorbidity; depression and anxiety can accompany each other and other diseases and disorders.

The comorbidity of depression and anxiety and other diseases is pushing doctors to treat all of a patient’s concerns individually, rather than treat only the symptoms and side-effects of medications. It is also a call for further research.

Nutritional Psychology investigates how nutrients affect mood and behavior. Part of that research focuses on how our diets can be part of comprehensive treatment for depression and anxiety.

Diet as Part of Anxiety and Depression Treatment

Research suggests that diet and dietary improvement influence risk of depression and appearance of anxiety behaviors. Because depression is an inflammatory disease, an anti-inflammatory diet might contribute greatly to treatment.

Here is a list of foods, nutrients, and habits that play a role in depression and anxiety:

Sugar

Can cause increased anxiety-like behavior and cause withdrawal symptoms that can increase anxiety and lead to consuming more sugar. So pass on the sweets, and opt for healthy carbohydrates instead.

Irregular eating

Can contribute to uneven blood sugar levels, which can lead to anxiety- and depression-like symptoms. Altering diet to eat regular meals and maintain blood glucose levels helps alleviate anxiety symptoms.

Fat

A diet high in fat can lower anxiety symptoms and behaviors, but the type of fat matters. Trans and saturated fats do not yield the same results. Healthy fats, like Omega-3 fatty acids, play an important role in lowering the risk of depression and alleviating symptoms as part of an anti-inflammatory diet. Flax seeds, chia seeds, walnuts, and soybeans all contribute the Omega-3 fat ALA.

Antioxidants

Another key part of an anti-inflammatory diet that can also play a role in the treatment of depression and anxiety, which is linked to an overall lower level of antioxidants. Fill up on vegetables, fruits, nuts, and legumes to increase your antioxidant levels.

Zinc

Can help support depression treatment and plays a role in alleviating anxiety symptoms. Eat whole grains, broccoli, legumes, and nuts to get zinc into your diet.

Magnesium

Known to quell anxiety, get magnesium from similar zinc sources: nuts, legumes, leafy greens, seeds, and whole grains

Protein

On a macro-level, eat protein with every meal to help release dopamine, feel satiated, and release norepinephrine.

Tryptophan

Helps promote the production of serotonin, which plays a role in both anxiety and depression symptoms. Get tryptophan from chocolate, cheese, egg yolks, pineapple, bananas, oats, and tofu.

Probiotics

Keep a healthy gut-brain connection by feeding and maintaining your gut biome with foods like yogurt and sauerkraut.

Bottom Line for Diet and Depression and Anxiety

Eat mostly plants, choose healthy fats and carbs, make sure you get enough protein and stay hydrated. Avoid sugar and alcohol, which can increase inflammation and have unpleasant withdrawal effects. Also go easy on the caffeine, which can increase anxiety. Also, eat consistently to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

Hi, so I get you don't want to put names of fellow youtubers (we all know who it was about haha) So in general what do you think of vegans promoting intermittent fasting and basically saying people that are skinny just don't eat much. I don't agree with that, my bf eats very often (always hungry when he wakes up) eats a lot and he's super skinny. I am disapointed that an influencer would say that you should eat little because it makes people feel guilty of being hungry! Thoughts?

Appreciate you respecting that! We all have a different audience we appeal to and I’d never dump on anyone who was helping people go vegan, but I will always answer questions about veganism to the best of my ability despite any feelings it may hurt. Facts shouldn’t trump feelings. Somethings are just they way they are despite intentions & revelations of information countering someone’s belief system need to be met with open inquiry.

Plenty more discussion on the topic on the McDougall forum.

In summation, people recommending intermittent fasting have no IDEA that there is an easy and enjoyable, sustainable way because its not easy to communicate WSLF to the world because everyone’s idea of this type of diet is a polluted mess of wrong information. its people thinking eating a bowl of lentils with a spoon is a meal... hell no, we eat the most amazing food ever.

Starve yourself and get worse results than enjoying this low fat polenta curry? HOW IS THAT A SALES PITCH? Madness! Pic from WSLF Group Member Gabrielle today! Fasting is utter backward futility. Its the blood letting of weight loss.

Inspiring Projects From HackNYU 2017

Each year NYU’s main Hackathon sees a host of awesome, innovative ideas developed by smart, sleep-deprived students. There have been apps made to encourage healthier partying and others which changed the landscape of tutoring. This year was no different in inspiring excellence and vision. Here are the winning projects in no particular order!

Assistive Technology Track

Alzheimer’s Companion won in its specific category but also took home a sponsor prize for Best Use of Amazon Web Services. The system fills in the gaps for people suffering from memory loss. Utilizing Amazon’s Alexa Dot, the Companion tracks scheduled events, family members and their descriptions, personal information, specific memories, and the location of particular objects and recites them back to the user when prompted.

Voice[H]over is an amazing tool developed by a team from NYU Shanghai that allows people with Cerebral Palsy or other diseases that affect speech to communicate in a more natural and affordable manner. Rather than relying only on a head-mounted laser and print out, the program converts inputs into a .txt file which can then be read aloud in a less robotic tone.

ID Your Face is another program meant to aid those affected by Alzheimer’s Disease. The app uses facial detection and recognition to scan photographs of people and recite back their personal relationship to the user.

Healthcare Track

MealPic makes eating healthy easier! Simply by snapping a photo of the meal you want to eat, the app crunches out a report of how nutritious the food is and then offers a healthier alternative. The app promotes better eating habits and works to prevent and reduce disease!

Tactile Textures solves a problem many dental students face while earning their degrees: the lack of touch during pre-clinical simulations! Their product records vibrations and plays them back along with video in order to provide a more realistic simulation for students.

Pill Central is a pill box that uses colorful LEDs to differentiate between and remind people to take their medication. The hardware comes along with a helpful iOS app that lets users set up their pill schedule and view upcoming medicine reminders!

Education Technology Track

CalPal won for providing an easy fix for procrastination! With their helpful Telegram bot, students can turn their to-do lists into a full-fledged calendar of events. That means no more “I’ll just study later!”

EduPro is a lifesaver when it comes to delivering top-tier, effective educational videos to students. The search engine analyzes data from YouTube and decides which clips are most in line with the student’s query. Save time searching and get right to learning!

Memo Rooms draws on the natural human ability to remember three-dimensional spaces in order to help its users study! By constructing a memory palace, a digital world where students can post note cards and lecture slides, the app lets you hack your brain and learn material as if you really had a photographic memory!

Sustainability and Social Impact Track

Ologee, a streamlined portal for displaced families seeking refugee status, could help tons of people worldwide escape from dangerous environments affected by war or natural disaster. Their website keeps tabs on all of the required forms for the refugee application and directs users to a local translator and UNHCR office to aid in the referral process.

Machine Learning + Psychology uses sound to identify and monitor water appliances like showers and toilets. The technology can help consumers work toward reducing their water usage and saving the planet!

Fashion Tree takes data from numerous clothing websites like Nordstrom and H&M to compile an overall sustainability score. The algorithm, which measures clothing composition, price, and other factors, can help customers find ethical, longer-lasting pieces to purchase.

Viacom Sponsor Prizes

Latinissimus is a commendable language-learning tool masquerading as an adorable computer game. Users play as Odysseus from Roman mythology and fight mini green cyclopes. The only way to win? Learn new Latin words!

Quack, like Latinissimus, helps its users learn a new language, this time specializing in American Sign Language. The program uses Leap Motion to help users both identify and perform different signs.

Verizon Sponsor Prize

Den-Manager tracks the occupancy of a room in real time. When the space reaches a certain threshold, it notifies the user. Afterward, the information can be plotted and utilized in data analytics!

Make School Sponsor Prizes

Best iOS

STrip soothes some of the anxiety that comes along with traveling to a different university. Food? Housing? Transportation? STrip handles it all, allowing students to upload pertinent information about the availability and convenience of certain resources on campuses around the world.

Best Beginner Hacks

CommUnity gives people a place to come together in hopes of shaping the areas they live in. With the app, people can list and reply to projects centered around their specific geographic location. Whether it’s a park cleanup or building a fence, people can collaborate in bettering their communities. See CommUnity soon on the iOS and Google Play app stores.

sEd stood in the winner’s circle for teaching sexual education in a convenient and engaging format! The app lets you play as a cute blob who roams the stars looking for condoms to defend against STDs. The information is easily digestible and the game’s a whole lot of fun, too!

Best Domain Name from Domain.com

WATGuru nailed themselves a win for providing an answer to all those “WAT” moments we have as students. Users can anonymously ask their questions during class and professors can respond and tailor their lectures as needed.

#HackHarrassment Prize

NID makes “new phone, who dis?” obsolete. By automatically updating users’ phones when a contact changes their number, the program helps keep people in contact, even when service providers seem to want to tear them apart.

Honorable Mentions

Edu-venture makes studying into an awesome gameplay experience! The RPG takes players through a comedic story while building their knowledge in whatever subject they’re studying. From the elementary to the collegiate level, the game offers an entertaining alternative to the classic flashcard method.

Chill Pill combines virtual reality with meditation and stress-busting exercises in order to combat Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Through the app’s games, people can manage their mental health in a more fun, immersive way!

Lexiko makes managing prescriptions a whole lot easier. This team worked to develop an app that breaks down complex medical terminology into a simpler, more visual and interactive report.

HaikuBot is the answer to all your poetry problems! All you need to do is send the Facebook messenger bot a photo (of literally anything) and it will pump out a glorious, perfectly formatted haiku related to what’s in the image. If that’s not cool, we don’t know what is.

These are only a fraction of the awesome projects we saw at HackNYU this year. Whether a project won or not, it’s a singular achievement to have built something from the ground up. To all the participants — congratulations!

It’s also worth noting that this year’s Hackathon saw an astounding number of female-identifying or non-binary winners! It’s clear that the hands responsible for shaping the world’s future will be as innovative as they are diverse. Keep creating!

How Smart Are Siamese Cats Really?

I once had a Siamese which was unlike any other cat I’d ever had before. I’ve had dumb cats as well as smart ones, but none of them can compare to Selene the Siamese. The things she’d get up to would amaze me. Most people already know that cats are smarter than they seem, but the extent of what they’re capable of is surprising to most.

Are Siamese cats smart? The capabilities and intelligence depend on the cat. Despite this, it is well known that Siamese cats are one of the smartest of cat breeds, as they are very communicative with humans and are able to learn many tricks easily.

Read on to find out what Siamese are capable of learning, and how you can keep them happy.

Ways Cat Intelligence can be Tested

Let us show you first what makes a cat actually smart before talking about Siamese cats in detail.

Social Ability (such as greeting owners, coming when called…)

Memory (remembering where a treat has been hidden)

Trainability (being able to learn tricks easily and in a short time)

It is a common belief that putting a blanket over our pet to cover their head, the faster that they remove it the smarter they are.

Besides this, there is also being able to understand, when it looks in the mirror, that it’s just their reflection – rather than thinking it’s another cat and being scared or attacking.

If your Siamese has ever tried to interact with any type of screen, such as your mobile phone, or by watching videos of birds, the fact that their brain is able to understand these images shows intelligence as well.

Social ability

The more social the Siamese the smarter they are. This shows they have the capability to understand that their owner takes care of them, and despite their independent nature they are able to grow strong bonds with us.

Acknowledging their owner when being called, instead of ignoring as most cats do, and being able to communicate what they want requires intelligence.

Siamese will often follow their owner around the house, sort of ‘supervising’ everything that they do or trying to get a cuddle instead. It’s easy to have a conversation with them as well, as they always respond without fail.

Siamese also happen to be very outgoing cats, which is why they get on very well with families and retired people.

Memory

Cats usually have very good memories, 200 times better than a dog’s, as they are able to recall information in their long-term memory from up to ten years. Relationships with humans and age may affect their memory.

Like humans, cats lose brain cells with age. If you make sure to have your Siamese socialize with humans in their first few weeks of life, they will forever remember this and trust humans.

Regarding their short-term memories, Siamese are much more selective with this and choose only to remember whatever they think is useful, and are able to recall information from up to 16 hours.

Try hiding a treat in front of your Siamese, and they should be able to find it without issue. Some other cats may just assume the treat disappeared. Being able to remember something that they have done, which earned them a treat, means they are smart.

Trainability

Since the Siamese are so smart, it’s only natural that they can be trained to do many things. However, they are still cats – which means that anything they don’t want to do, they won’t do it.

Most Siamese can be taught how to fetch, walk on a leash, high five, jump through hoops, and use the toilet as well as flush, and many other tricks.

Your Siamese may even be able to play the ‘three shell game’, which is a gambling game where an item, such as a treat, is hidden underneath one of the three cups and mixed around.

The most fascinating part isn’t what you can teach them though; it’s what they can deduce by themselves. For example, it’s very common for Siamese cats to sleep under the cover with their head on the pillow in a bed.

Some have also begun sitting in a chair at the dinner table to indicate that they are hungry.

I think the best example of this is how a Siamese taught itself to nip at the ankles of its owner, who happened to suffer from seizures, in order to indicate that they needed to move to a soft landing.

The particular way your Siamese would learn how to perform tricks can range from one cat to another, but generally, positive reinforcement is always needed.

This is according to the ‘Law of Effect’ by Edward Thorndike. The amount of time also depends on the cat, but the faster they learn and remember the more intelligent.

Diet For A Healthy Brain

In order to maintain and improve processes such as problem-solving, memory, and learning, a supportive diet is necessary. Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, taurine, and vitamins all have positive effects on cognition.

Omega-3 fatty acids are essential because they cannot be synthesized naturally and must be obtained through their diet.

The Omega-3 fatty acids which support brain development and function are docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), alpha-linolenic acid, and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).

Arachidonic acid, coming from Omega-6 fatty acids, also supports cognition and development. The acid, AA, is found in animal sources such as meat. It was found that AA and DHA make up 20% of the fatty acids in the brain.

Taurine, an amino acid, is also difficult for cats to synthesize. Taurine can cross the blood-brain barrier in the brain, and so it helps many neurological functions, especially visual development.

Always Keep Your Siamese Cat´s Intelligence In Mind

Siamese can quickly get bored if they don’t have enough stimulation and can become unhappy if their needs aren’t satisfied.

They are great jumpers and love heights, so having perches and/or cat trees are essential as they enjoy keeping active.

They also enjoy interactively playing with their owners with feathers and balls, but something more is needed to stimulate them; ideally some puzzle games, such as treat mazes and hunting boxes.

Some Siamese prefer to make up their own games, such as hide and seek and ambushing family members. They would also wait patiently somewhere high up, just to pounce on anyone who passes.

However, if they are not kept occupied it’s possible for them to get engaged in compulsive behavior. Such behavior includes constantly licking, or even biting, themselves.

They may also partake in sucking on some sort of fabric, like wool, or consuming other non-foods. This type of behavior is more likely to happen before your cat reaches the age of two.

Related Questions:

Are Siamese Cats Mean? No, as they tend to be an affectionate breed. They are known for being affectionate and forming a strong bond with their owner, having a tendency to stick with one particular person. Are Siamese Cats Needy? They can be and tend to follow their owner around and watch or try to cuddle, as they are not as independent as other cats.

Are Siamese Cats Territorial? Yes, more so with their owner than with space. This may be that being highly intelligent, the Siamese is often said to be more like a dog, or even a human child, than a cat.

How long do Siamese live? Siamese cats have a life expectancy of 15 to 20 years, but there have been many which surpassed this. Such as Scooter the Siamese, who lived until the age of 30, and was even named the world’s oldest living cat by the Guinness Book of World Records.

5 Reasons Why Weight Loss Through Sabja Seeds Is A Good Idea

Sabja or Tukmaria or Sweet Basil Seeds belong to the same family as chia seeds do which is the mint family. While chia seeds are widely known for their weight loss properties including appetite control, sabja seeds are not that widely popular and here in this article, we bring to you the various utilities of sabja seeds for weight loss.

Now let us see how sabja seeds are useful for people looking for weight loss.

1. Essential Fatty Acids in Sabja Seeds Steer Weight Loss

Sabja Seeds contain fatty acids for weight loss

Sabja seed oils contain approximately 50% linoleic acid, 22% linolenic acid, 15% oleic acid and 8% unsaturated fatty acids. Scientifically, this is a good blend of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. The 50% content of linolenic acid in the sabja seeds offers it a good content of omega 6 fatty acids which are considered good fatty acids and also offer anti-inflammatory properties which help in curbing inflammation and obesity in human body. Researches says that conjugated linoleic acid cast an anti obesity effect by reducing energy intake, increasing basal metabolic rate, inhibiting development of fat cells and suppressing fat production and stimulating breakdown of fats [2].

Evidences Proving the Role of Essential Fatty Acids in Weight Loss

Also, according to a study published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2004 revealed that daily supplementation with Conjugated linoleic acid for 1 year resulted in the fat loss of 6-9% in healthy overweight individuals [3]. Furthermore another study published in the same journal talks about CLA supplementation that can bring about modest weight loss [4]. Thus, it is a proven fact that consuming sabja seeds for weight loss daily will provide you with an excellent mixture of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids which will help you steer clear of inflammation and thus help in weight loss.

Want to know how sabja seeds look like?

They are oval in shape and black in colour. Their looks are similar to poppy seeds and they are larger than chia seeds & swell faster.

2. Sabja Seeds – Rich Sources of Dietary Fibre

DietaryFibre in Sabja Seeds help in weight loss

Research on the long-term dietary pattern of various individuals clearly indicates that fibre intake is directly proportional to weight loss [5]. This means that greater the fibre intake a person follows, more is the weight loss they can achieve. For weight loss, sabja seeds’ content of dietary fibres promotes the feeling of satiety along with decreasing the absorption of fats and carbohydrates in the body. It also promotes proper functioning of the gut hormones while aiding healthy and consistent weight loss. Along with weight loss, sabja seeds fibre content are also found to improve metabolic [6] and cardiovascular health. Research also suggests that sabja seeds contain around 80g of dietary fibre per 100g of seeds [7]. The dietary fibre under discussion is found to be soluble which helps in controlling appetite, slowing of the digestion of food and regulation of bowel movement.

3. Uncontrolled Appetite? Try Sabja Seeds!

Sabja seeds control appetite

As already discussed, sabja seeds are rich in soluble dietary fibre and around 100g of sweet basil seeds provide 80g dietary fibre. Sabja seeds soaked in water absorbs approximately 4 times the amount of water as unsoaked seeds. When soaked, sabja seeds swell to around 20-40% their original size and convert in the form of a gel-like substance. Consuming this gel before meals help in appetite control thereby reducing calorie intake. It also slows down prior to meals helps in appetite control and reduces subsequent calorie intake. It slows down the activity of digestive enzymes, improves blood sugar control and regulates gut hormones to send satiety signals to the brain. According to a study published in the International Journal of Preventive Medicine 2016 to determine whether dietary fibre content in sabja seeds help in weight loss in non alcoholic fatty liver disease patients [8], it was revealed that consumption of sabja seeds led to significant decrease in body weight, fat mass, and BMI.

4. Sabja Seeds Help in Normalizing Blood Sugar

Sabja Seeds Help in reducing Blood Sugar

We all know that serious health conditions like diabetes and insulin resistance are aftermaths of obesity, which when developed affect the blood sugar making it a never-ending process. The gel formed by sabja seeds which we discussed in the above section is known to slow down the action of carbohydrate degrading enzymes, which leads to slow breakdown of carbohydrates in the diet which subsequently releases glucose slowly in the bloodstream.

According to a research published in Biomed and Pharmacotherapy 2016, showed that sabja seeds have the potential to lower the blood sugar levels in the body [9].

5. Sabja Seeds are Low Cal and High Nutrient Substance

Sabja seeds are low in calories

Another highly attractive aspect of sabja seeds is that they are low in calories and high on vital nutrients. They are rich in carbohydrates most of which are soluble dietary fibres that are not digested in the body and enhance the level of satiety. Sabja seeds are an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin B-complex, vitamin E & K, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and iron – all nutrients being essential for weight loss and management. So rather than using weight loss supplements (fat burner) and face the after effects of their usage [10], it is always better to go for natural weight loss aiding substances which do not pose any ill effects that provide other health benefits also.

Did you Know?

Like other seeds, sabja seeds also secrete essential oils and these oils contain more than almost 200 therapeutic compounds rich in flavonoids, phytosterols, polyphenols, triterpines, alkaloids. Let us also tell you that each of these compounds contributes to the medicinal properties of sabja seeds. Sabja seeds also contain planteose, mucilage, polysaccharides and oil rich in linoleic acid, linolenic acid and unsaturated fatty acids.

How to Consume Sabja Seeds?

Instead of trying to chew unsoaked sabja seeds, it is always better soak them in water and then consume. Just take 1 teaspoon of sabja seeds and soak them in a glass of water. Wait till they form a gel-like consistency. Consume this water and gel mix half an hour before meals. basil seeds and soak them in one glass of water. Set them aside till they swell and form a gel. Doing this will control your appetite thus reducing your calorie intake during your meals.

Increased dietary consumption of pesticides and pregnancy outcomes for women undergoing fertility treatment

Photo Credit: Tatiana Vdb

A recent study published by Harvard University researchers in the scientific journal JAMA Internal Medicine has found that increased dietary consumption of pesticide residues is associated with a lower probability of live births in their study population. The study assessed the intake of fruits and vegetables known to have high levels of pesticide residues vs. fruits and vegetables known to have low levels of pesticide residues for 325 women undergoing fertility treatment. Researchers found that women who reported consuming the most fruits and vegetables known to have high levels of pesticide contamination had an 18% lower probability of clinical pregnancy and a 26% lower probability of live birth compared to women reporting low intakes of fruits and vegetables known to have high pesticide residues. “Higher consumption of high–pesticide residue FVs was associated with lower probabilities of pregnancy and live birth following infertility treatment with assisted reproductive technologies. These data suggest that dietary pesticide exposure within the range of typical human exposure may be associated with adverse reproductive consequences,” the authors noted.

Just recently, scientists have actually started to consider insomnia as an issue of your brain being not able to "stop" being awake (your brain has a sleep cycle and a wake cycle-- when one is switched on the other is shut off-- insomnia can be an issue with either part of this cycle: excessive wake drive or insufficient sleep drive). It is necessary to initially comprehend exactly what might be triggering your sleep troubles.

5 Reasons Why Weight Loss Through Sabja Seeds Is A Good Idea

Sabja or Tukmaria or Sweet Basil Seeds belong to the same family as chia seeds to which is the mint family. While chia seeds are widely known for their weight loss properties including appetite control, sabja seeds are not that widely popular and here in this article, we bring to you the various utilities of sabja seeds for weight loss. Talking about the physical properties of sabja seeds, they are oval in shape and black in color. Their looks are similar to poppy seeds and they are larger than chia seeds & swell faster. Like other seeds, sabja seeds also secrete essential oils and these oils contain more than almost 200 therapeutic compounds rich in flavonoids, phytosterols, polyphenols, triterpines, alkaloids. Let us also tell you that each of these compounds contributes to the medicinal properties of sabja seeds. Sabja seeds also contain planteose, mucilage, polysaccharides and oil rich in linoleic acid, linolenic acid and unsaturated fatty acids. Other than weight loss, the essential oils present in sabja seeds offer various health benefits like aiding proper digestion, treating cold, curing respiratory disorders, relieving stress, treating skin infections, reducing inflammation, maintaining functions of various body systems, treating problems related to the Genitourinary System, regulating blood sugar level, quickening of the healing of wounds [1].

Now having talked about the components of sabja seeds and that they carry medicinal properties, let us see how sabja seeds are useful for people looking for weight loss.

1. Essential Fatty Acids in Sabja Seeds Steer Weight Loss

Sabja Seeds contain fatty acids for weight loss

Sabja seed oils contain approximately 50% linoleic acid, 22% linolenic acid, 15% oleic acid and 8% unsaturated fatty acids. Scientifically, this is a good blend of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. The 50% content of linolenic acid in the sabja seeds offers it a good content of omega 6 fatty acids which are considered good fatty acids and also offer anti-inflammatory properties which help in curbing inflammation and obesity in the human body. Research says that conjugated linoleic acid cast an anti-obesity effect by reducing energy intake, increasing basal metabolic rate, inhibiting the development of fat cells and suppressing fat production and stimulating breakdown of fats [2].

Also, according to a study published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2004 revealed that daily supplementation with Conjugated linoleic acid for 1 year resulted in the fat loss of 6-9% in healthy overweight individuals [3]. Furthermore, another study published in the same journal talks about CLA supplementation that can bring about modest weight loss [4]. Thus, it is a proven fact that consuming sabja seeds for weight loss daily will provide you with an excellent mixture of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids which will help you steer clear of inflammation and thus help in weight loss.
