New Orleans, LA (PRWEB) April 08, 2013

The 245th American Chemical Society National Meeting & Exposition in New Orleans April 7 11th on Chemistry of Energy & Food is sure to be an informative exposition this year. The relationship between chemistry and food has become a trending topic in the minds of many consumers. Label reading is no longer the exception but the norm for the average shopper, and foods and beverages alike are getting more and more recognition for their natural health benefits. One such subject matter that has been widely studied is coffee.

Dr. Joe Vinson from the Department of Chemistry at the University of Scranton, is presenting More than just caffeine Tuesday, April 9, 2013 10:20 AM at the Natural Products for Health and Pharmaceuticals and Biotech forum from 08:00 AM - 11:50 AM in the DoubleTree New Orleans, Room: Madewood A. As evidence for coffee's diabetes and heart disease protection Dr. Vinson will present a new human study demonstrating a dose-response green coffee extracts inhibition of glucose absorption during a glucose tolerance test in normal subjects. Dr. Vinsons presentation will also summarize numerous epidemiological studies indicating that coffee consumption, especially decaffeinated coffee, will reduce the risk of all-cause mortality, heart failure, Type 2 Diabetes and Parkinson's disease. The studies' results are usually J-curves indicating an optimal consumption of 2-4 cups/day. Dr. Vinsons studies of antioxidants in foods and beverages indicate that coffee is the #1 source of polyphenol antioxidants in the U.S. diet and this has been borne out in several European countries.

Dr. Vinson will also discuss a recent study in India with obese subjects which showed a significant weight loss and body fat reduction after consuming capsules containing a green coffee extract which was high in chlorogenic acids. Roasting is known to greatly reduce the levels of these compounds in the beverage coffee.

New Study Finds That Healthy Lifestyle May Reduce Risk of Kidney Failure, Suggesting Weight Loss Supplements Like Prescopodene May Prolong Life in Kidney Patients

Australia (PRWEB) June 06, 2013

Several studies have been completed regarding healthy diet and its effect on the heart. However, one has now focused on the positive effects of healthy living for people suffering from kidney disease, implying that weight loss supplements such as Prescopodene may help them live a prolonged life.

In a study published on May 23, 2013 in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, researchers looked at the American Heart Associations (AHA) Lifes Simple 7 in regard to kidney patients. Lifes Simple 7 are the seven factors that the AHA has recognized as contributing to cardiovascular health. They include: getting active, controlling cholesterol, eating better, managing blood pressure, losing weight, reducing blood sugar and stopping smoking.

Researchers studied 3093 participants with kidney disease (stage 3 and stage 4) over the course of a four year period. They found that those with 2-4 of the seven factors had significantly lower rates of End State Renal Disease (ESRD). In addition, not one participant that had 5-7 of the positive factors developed ESRD, which suggests that the same healthy lifestyle conditions for heart health are also beneficial to kidney health. This also means that weight loss via supplements such as Prescopodene, is beneficial to the promotion of proper heart and kidney function.

Prescopodene is an all-natural weight loss supplement that suppresses appetite, increases energy and aids in weight loss. It contains ingredients such as green tea, grape seed extract, vitamin C and ginger root.
