TUCSON, AZ, December 27, 2010 (Press-News.org) "Science progresses from observation to hypothesis to experiment to theory to natural law," says Michael Dow. "Few relationships reach the point of natural law since this means there are no known exceptions to the theory."
A theory of weight management based on tracking calories was proposed. The theory is: consume more calories than you burn and you'll gain weight. Vice versa is true. Also, if you maintain energy balance, then you'll maintain your weight.
The National Academy of Sciences published the 2005 Dietary Reference Intake manual which presents this theory by showing from observations that a certain amount of calories are required for a person to maintain a certain weight (DRI_publication).
Harvard's School of Public Health confirmed this relationship in Feb 2009 by showing that reducing calories leads to weight loss (Harvard_publication).
"Einstein's equation E = mc2 applied to biology moves this idea from theory to natural law," says Mr. Dow. "Dividing both sides by mass produces E/m = c2. In words, this means Energy divided by mass equals the speed of light squared. The speed of light is a constant so this equation turns into E/m = a constant. Increase Energy and mass has to increase in order for the constant to remain a constant. Vice versa is true. Also, no change in energy means there will be no change in mass. This natural law usually applied to nuclear reactions shows why adjusting calorie consumption changes one's weight."
"The reason why exercising helps people lose weight is that a person burns more calories which result in a decrease in overall energy and a decrease in mass. Some people exercise a lot and don't lose weight, but this is because they are consuming more calories and maintaining an energy balance which causes a weight balance. Exercising is important in increasing one's health, but weight is determined by calorie consumption."
In full disclosure, Michael Stephen Dow wrote a book regarding this subject, titled The Pen and Paper Diet published in May 2008.

Natural Menopause Remedies and the Time Women Reach Menopause Age, Dr. Shoreh Ershadi Advises
2010-12-27
Dr. Shoreh Ershadi, at the ANTIAGING Institute of California, advises women about the time in their lives when menopause is most likely to start. It is not possible to predict exactly when a woman will go through menopause, as it can vary with each individual, but the average age for menopause in United States is fifty three. It is not unusual, though, for some women to experience menopause in their forties and others to experience it in late fifties.
When a woman notices changes in her menstrual cycle, that is usually one of the first signs of menopause. At the time ...

OSU helps decode strawberry genome in bid to improve fruit
2010-12-26
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Researchers at Oregon State University have helped sequence the genome of a wild strawberry, laying the groundwork for genetic improvements to related fruits like apples, peaches and pears.
The advance was published today in the journal Nature Genetics.
"This will accelerate research that will lead to improved crops, particularly commercial strawberries," said OSU plant molecular biologist Todd Mockler, one of the lead researchers. "It could lead to fruit that resists pests, smells better, tolerates heat, requires less fertilizer, has a longer shelf ...
'Food of the gods' genome sequence could make finest chocolate better
2010-12-26
The production of high quality chocolate, and the farmers who grow it, will benefit from the recent sequencing and assembly of the chocolate tree genome, according to an international team led by Claire Lanaud of CIRAD, France, with Mark Guiltinan of Penn State, and including scientists from 18 other institutions.
The team sequenced the DNA of a variety of Theobroma cacao, considered to produce the world's finest chocolate. The Maya domesticated this variety of Theobroma cacao, Criollo, about 3,000 years ago in Central America, and it is one of the oldest domesticated ...
Structure deep within the brain may contribute to a rich, varied social life
2010-12-26
Scientists have discovered that the amygdala, a small almond shaped structure deep within the temporal lobe, is important to a rich and varied social life among humans. The finding was published this week in a new study in Nature Neuroscience and is similar to previous findings in other primate species, which compared the size and complexity of social groups across those species.
"We know that primates who live in larger social groups have a larger amygdala, even when controlling for overall brain size and body size," says Lisa Feldman Barrett, PhD, of the Massachusetts ...
Microfluidic device rapidly orients hundreds of embryos for high-throughput experiments
2010-12-26
Researchers have developed a microfluidic device that automatically orients hundreds of fruit fly and other embryos to prepare them for research. The device could facilitate the study of such issues as how organisms develop their complex structures from single cells -- one of the most fascinating aspects of biology.
Scientists know that among an embryo's first major developments is the establishment of its dorsoventral axis, which runs from its back to its belly. Determining how this axis development unfolds -- specifically the presence and location of proteins during ...
Georgia Tech team helps decode newly sequenced strawberry genome
2010-12-26
An international research consortium has sequenced the genome of the woodland strawberry, according to a study published in the Dec. 26 advance online edition of the journal Nature Genetics. The development is expected to unlock possibilities for breeding tastier, hardier varieties of the berry and other crops in its family.
"We've created the strawberry parts list," said the consortium's leader Kevin Folta, an associate professor with the University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. "For every organism on the planet, if you're going to try to ...
