Also see: Thyroid peroxidase activity is inhibited by amino acids Gelatin, Glycine, and Metabolism Gelatin > Whey The selection of proteins should minimize the amino acids tryptophan (which is the precursor of serotonin) and cysteine (which, like tryptophan, suppresses thyroid function, by including gelatin and fruits. Gelatin is 22% glycine, which protects the lungs and [...]
Mol Cell Biochem. 1998 Nov;188(1-2):5-12. Timing of dietary fat exposure and mammary tumorigenesis: role of estrogen receptor and protein kinase C activity. Hilakivi-Clarke L, Clarke R. The possible association between a high fat diet and increased breast cancer risk has remained controversial. This largely reflects the conflicting data obtained from migrant, case control and animal [...]

Am J Clin Nutr. 2009 Apr;89(4):1031-6. Epub 2009 Feb 25. Increased television viewing is associated with elevated body fatness but not with lower total energy expenditure in children. Jackson DM, Djafarian K, Stewart J, Speakman JR. BACKGROUND: Television (TV) viewing in children is associated with a higher body mass index, but it is unknown whether [...]
Endocrinology. 2003 Jun;144(6):2404-8. In vitro inhibition of insulin-degrading enzyme by long-chain fatty acids and their coenzyme A thioesters. Hamel FG, Upward JL, Bennett RG. Insulin-degrading enzyme is responsible for initiating insulin degradation in cells, but little is known about the factors controlling its activity. Because obesity and high levels of free fatty acids decrease insulin [...]
Mol Cell Endocrinol. 2011 Dec 31. [Epub ahead of print] Bisphenol-A acts as a potent estrogen via non-classical estrogen triggered pathways. Alonso-Magdalena P, Ropero AB, Soriano S, García-Arévalo M, Ripoll C, Fuentes E, Quesada I, Nadal A. Bisphenol-A (BPA) is an estrogenic monomer commonly used in the manufacture of numerous consumer products such as food [...]
“Much of the current concern about the dangers of fructose is focussed on the cornstarch- derived high fructose corn syrup, HFCS. Many studies assume that its composition is nearly all fructose and glucose. However, Wahjudi, et al. (2010) analyzed samples of it before and after hydrolyzing it in acid, to break down other carbohydrates present [...]
Dietary calcium deficiency results in calcium being placed where it does not belong – in the soft tissues – and this happens at the expense of our bones causing dysfunctions like hypertension, arteriosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and degenerative joint disease. Inappropriate calcification occurs ironically due to a lack of calcium. [...]
