While the dangers to physical health of being obese are well known, researchers are now discovering that being overweight can also have a significant impact on mental health. The study examined genetic data from more than 145,000 participants from the UK Biobank. There’s a growing body of evidence linking high BMI with depression, but the study set out to find whether this link is down to psychosocial pathways (eg social stigma) or physical pathways (metabolic conditions linked to higher BMI, such as type 2 diabetes or cardiovascular disease). The answer? A bit of both. Lead author Dr Francesco Casanova, of the University of Exeter Medical School, said, ‘Finding ways to support people to lose weight could benefit their mental health as well as their physical health.’

C A S E S T U DY “SOME DAYS I COULD BARELY DRESS MYSELF” Felicity Pryke, 43, explains how yoga and physiotherapy help her to manage chronic back pain ‘It started 12 years ago when I was standing in the garden at my mum’s house. At first I thought, “Ooh, that’s a bit of a twinge,” and within a minute I was on my knees in pain. The doctor referred me for physiotherapy and prescribed painkillers, but I felt fobbed off. After a year of struggling through – some days I could barely dress myself – I tearily demanded an MRI. This showed a slight disc bulge but there was little to be done other than more physio or cortisone injections. Then I turned to my yoga practice. I’ve done yoga since I was 21 and I started paying more attention to what feels right in my body. It was hit and miss to start with but I’ve noticed an improvement the more I have practised. The yoga that I do – and now teach – is sensible and mindful, and focuses on what feels right for my body. My back is still a point of weakness but yoga works for me.’ Find out more about Felicity’s yoga and holistic health practice at findingfelicity.co.uk

- 39. 17thDecember 28thJanuary 2ndApril 1stJuly CBTi: the final piece of the jigsaw WHAT IS CBTI? CBTi is defined as a structured programme that helps people identify thoughts and behaviours that cause or worsen sleep problems. The idea is that you replace them with ‘healthy’ thoughts and behaviours that promote sound sleep. Sleep guru Dr Sophie Bostock is an expert in CBTi. She explains: ‘CBTi is definitely more effective than drugs, with none of the negative side effects. People with insomnia need to reconfigure their routines, then change their view of sleep.’ Here are her tips. • Sleep restriction: only go to bed when you’re tired, and get out of bed when you’re not • Stimulus control: use your bed for sleep or sex, and nothing else • Follow the quarter hour rule: if you’re still awake after 15 minutes, get up and read a book • Try relaxation and mindfulness techniques • Keep a sleep diary • Get outside as early as you can in the morning • Follow a healthy lifestyle: exercise, eat well, use your brain and relax when appropriate • Go to bed only when you feel sleepy “It’slikebeing chainedtothe bottomofapond –Icouldperceive lifegoingon abovethewater, butcouldn’tsee ortouchit” THE CLINIC

I don’t have much meditation experience and found the 12 minutes went quite slowly – it was repetitive, but in a good way, though I wouldn’t say it felt spiritual, more hypnotic. Strangely, I found the sound of my own voice quite soothing – perhaps because I haven’t been hearing it so much lately. The silent part was hardest, as there was less to focus on. I also had to remind myself to slow down. The first couple of days, I felt relaxed during, and quite stimulated afterwards (perhaps my synapses were reorganising as I did feel some mental clarity). But after a while I didn’t have to concentrate so hard, and found more outside anxieties creeping in. That said, I’ll give it another shot.

Cocoa flavanols are a bioactive compound in cocoa powder and dark chocolate, which help to increase blood flow, which means they can prevent blood clots and even combat memory decline. The study looked at their effects in a group of ‘sedentary’ adults aged 40-60. In a lab test on exercise bikes, cocoa flavanol supplements were shown to improve VO2 kinetics time – how long it takes the body to start increasing oxygen uptake when you begin a workout. Associate Professor Simon Marwood, Subject Lead in Sport Science at Liverpool Hope University, says, ‘One barrier to starting an exercise plan is poor fitness in the first place, perhaps because of the discomfort associated with exercise. This finding suggests that a simple nutritional supplement can improve exercise tolerance, and therefore enhance the likelihood of sustaining an exercise programme.’ Unfortunately, it’s not an excuse to eat loads of chocolate – this is one occasion where the experts actively recommend supplementation, to avoid the sugar and fat in chocolate. healthy-magazine.co.uk 55 The best fitness inspo, trends and workouts 56 Fitness nutrition myths busted | 61 Get started: netball | 62 Lucky Mecklenburgh on loving her body

We all have our preference, and the merits of each have long been debated, but new research suggests mornings could be best – as that’s when our testosterone levels are at their highest. ‘The high levels early in the morning may be more conducive to better workouts and a bit more focus for many men,’ says Dr Faysal Yafi of the University of California. This is because testosterone levels are synchronised with the circadian rhythm, and are highest in the morning after we’ve slept. And it’s not just your exercise that could benefit, as this period of high T can also be beneficial for mental focus, meaning you may well be able to do your best work at that time of day, too. It might be time to set that morning alarm a little earlier.

You decide… HOMER SIMPSON Homer has been terrorising his family since 1989 and parodies many dad stereotypes: he’s an overweight, angry, opinionated and incompetent buffoon. But deep down, he does love his kids. PHIL DUNPHY The Modern Family father tries to be a cool dad and espouses peerenting – ‘act like a parent, talk like a peer.’ His wife Claire calls him ‘the kid I’m married to’. Full marks for effort. JACK PEARSON The father figure in This Is Us battles alcoholism, strives to start his own business and ultimately sacrifices his own life for his family, when he saves his kids from a house fire. Absolute hero. DADDY PIG Peppa’s dad is a bumbling figure of fun who can’t stand heights, botches simple DIY tasks and drives on the wrong side of the road abroad, although he is also a structural engineer and world champion puddle-jumper. TONY SOPRANO OK, so he’s the head of a Mafia clan and a violent sociopath, but a key tenet of The Sopranos was Tony grappling with his responsibilities towards his family. He did it all for them.

Discover how easy it is to add safe, effective CBD to your wellness routine with Pureis Ultra Pure W WORLD-CLASS WELLBEING Rugby legend and friend of Pureis Ultra Pure CBD Mike Tindall knows that looking after your physical health and nutrition is vital to all round wellbeing ‘I’ve always loved training and when I retired, that never left,’ he says. ‘If I don’t go to the gym or do something every day, then I don’t feel as good about everything as when I go. But I don’t get too hooked up on nutrition – I generally watch what I eat and don’t overload. I don’t worry about my weight, I more worry about how I carry it. There’s a balance point between how it looks in the mirror and how I feel.’ PROMOTION

PT Chris Ruxton’s top tips to burn off belly fat • Take a HIIT US Research shows that regularly doing high- intensity interval training (HIIT) can increase ‘fat burning’ and significantly lower overall abdominal/visceral fat by around 60%. • Get on your bike A diabetes-focused study of cyclists who biked for 45 minutes, three times a week for eight weeks, improved their insulin sensitivity, increased their oxygen consumption and cut their visceral fat by half. • Mixed muscle A study of male exercisers published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, found that they lost 20% of their visceral fat on average if they took part in a combination of cardio with strength exercises – again for 45 minutes, three times a week.
