CNN —A biologic therapy that delays the onset of type 1 diabetes received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration on Thursday. The most common side effects reported in the trial participants were low white blood cells and lymph cells, rash and headache. Without insulin, blood sugar can build up in the bloodstream and break down the body’s own fat and muscle. With Tzield, doctors would screen individual family members of people with type 1 diabetes to see whether they have those specific antibodies. As of 2019, about 1.9 million people have type 1 diabetes in the United States, according to the American Diabetes Association, including 244,000 children and adolescents.

The advertisement featuring a pearly white, cow’s milk mustache on a smiling face sends a message often repeated at home: Dairy milk is good for you. Fat, sodium and cholesterol: Compared to dietary cholesterol in whole dairy, most plant milks are good choices — plant foods never have dietary cholesterol, Gardner said. Sodium levels are relatively equal between plant milks and dairy at about 100 milligrams of sodium. “No need to fear the fat of most plant-based milks — unsaturated fats are considered healthful in the modest quantities found in plant-based milks,” Gardner said. Plant milks have no such advantage, and this is where nutrition can stumble, Gardner said.

Sometimes you're just too busy to go grocery shopping, meal prep and cook at home, so you pull up to a drive-thru.

Small, sustainable changes are key to a healthy diet — you don't have to quit fast food cold turkey. (And yes, healthy options at Chick-fil-A and Taco Bell do exist.)

More than 11% of Americans have diabetes, which occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin to regulate blood sugar levels. As a nutritionist who has been living with type 1 diabetes for more than 30 years, I've found that having diabetes doesn't mean you have to completely stop eating what you enjoy. Managing blood sugar is often more about making small food swaps, or adding, rather than eliminating, certain foods. Protein, fat and fiber all moderate how quickly food is digested, which is helpful in balancing blood sugar levels. Here are the foods I eat — and the foods I try to cut back on — to help manage my diabetes:

Dan dan noodles are named after the way they were originally sold more than 100 years ago – on a dan dan, a carrying pole, by street hawkers. Some think dan dan noodles should contain a dry mix of noodles, made with minced meat, chopped scallions, spices, crushed peanuts and various sauces. Others disagree, preferring dan dan noodles in a hot, spicy, salty and nutty broth albeit with similar ingredients. Similar to Hainanese chicken rice, the Wenchang version is often served with yellow chicken fat rice and chicken soup.

She also wants to start a wider conversation about the issues surrounding women and body acceptance. Okoro says that Van Commenee then asked her about her weight. Which is fine for say tennis, in the 80s, where all women look the same. “They are women first, athletes second,” Dr. Emily Matheson, a research fellow at the Centre for Appearance Research, told CNN Sport. Okoro has also drawn inspiration from women athletes in rugby and football.

CNN —If British food has come in for a bit of mockery over the years, it isn’t because the recipes are wrong. Eating British food is not just eating. Like 95% of all British cuisine, it is comprised entirely of eggs, flour, milk and fat. By the age of 16, the average British child will have eaten this dish 4,160 times. Layer one pudding on top of another pudding on top of another and cover it all with whipped cream.
