Default Future way to be thin?

Metabolic switch delivers healthy fat

Mouse study spots protein that generates
fuel-burning tissue.

Excerpts:

Researchers have identified a cellular switch
that triggers the production of 'good' fat cells,
which pump out heat and raise the body's
metabolic rate.

The discovery, made in mice, might one day
provide a way to treat or prevent obesity in
humans.

In adult humans, nearly all fat tissue is made
of white fat cells, which store excess energy
for later use.

But brown fat cells have a high metabolic rate
and burn up the chemical fuel, rather than store
it. A higher proportion of babies' fat is brown,
probably as a way to keep warm. But these
deposits are mostly lost after infancy.

Researchers ... have now identified the protein
that induces developing fat cells to become
brown, not white. The next step, he says, is to
find drugs that can manipulate this process in
adults.

....

Studies of adult dogs have shown that the right
cocktail of hormones can resurrect brown fat.
"There's no question that it can be recalled in
big animals," Spiegelman says.

But this involves long-term doses of drugs such
as adrenaline, which have side effects such as
raised blood pressure and heart rate, and would
therefore be dangerous for humans.

The search is on for more specific drugs that
could help the body make more brown fat, says
Spiegelman. Alternatively, immature cells in white
fat deposits could be genetically engineered to
turn brown, he suggests.

"It sounds a little far-fetched, but remember that
in cosmetic surgery fat is removed or put in all
the time," he says. "You could do liposuction,
[genetically] engineer the cells and then put
some of them back."

Dr. Chung:
Any comments I make at this time are mine alone and do not necessarily
reflect the views of CFHC.

After going through this difficult time with you, I understand that you
are probably not interested in anything I have to say. Also, I believe
what I do say will probably be twisted or interpreted by you to suit
your purposes. For that reason I will be as direct and declarative as
possible.

Your website comments about cardiology in Ocala, FL are detractions and
border on slander. These are legal terms, and one of the important
features of them is that the comments are published. Your website
fulfills that requirement. Now just reflect on the fact that you are the
only one to make such insinuations or allegations. Any reasonable person
seeing these things may justifiably conclude that it is you that is out
of step, not the other 15 or 20 cardiologists in Ocala. As I have in the
past, I am trying to get you to see the reality of the situation from
outside your head. You have chosen to ignore the
good advice I tried to give while you were here. I hope you will soon
realize you are doing yourself more harm than good by publishing your
dispute. It would be better to let it go, before your reputation suffers
more.

Speaking of reputations, I have spent 35 years building mine. I can call
on physicians from around the world and this community to attest to it.
I can also call upon the many physicians I trained to do cardiac
catheterization (over 25 years) to offer a positive opinion about my
work. You can't. Being just out of training, you have no reputation
except the one you have just established here in Ocala. You are
continuing to establish your reputation by publishing your website. How
do you think what you have said would look to another physician-perhaps
an employer- when he reads it? Do you think he or anyone would conclude
that you are a reputable physician, easy to work with and a team player?

Personally, if I find that you speak disparagingly of me, or my work to
any patient or physician, be assured I will not take the matter lightly.
Whatever you think of me personally, or whatever you think of my
professional activity, you do not have the right to condemn either me or
the work to another and thereby compromise my reputation. You may
disagree with me, or state we have a difference of opinion, but you may
not state that I am practicing less that optimum cardiology. Once again,
if I find that you have done so (and I hope it has not happened yet) I
will certainly take the matter to the State Board of Medicine for a
hearing. If the Florida State Board finds cause, and renders a censure,
that must be transmitted to all other State Boards on your next and all
future applications for licensure. And once again, just common sense
should tell you that hitting back in your situation is counterproductive
and could be disastrous for you. But as I told you face to face, you may
have great book smarts, but your actions have shown that you have no
common sense that permits you to operate successfully in a professional
community. And, once again, I will tell you what I did before, you do
not operate in a vacuum. Your practice, wherever it may be, must be
according to the community standard, regardless of what you perceive
that to be. And an attitude that you vocalized by saying that you were
unable to change the community standard in Ocala speaks loudly and
clearly about your perception of reality and your inability to work with
your colleagues.

Dr. Chung, I urgently advise you to let the past go. Look to your future
which could be bright. If you persist in these efforts of hitting back
and trying to justify your actions to a world that looks upon such
attempts as childish or immature and unprofessional, you will continue
to do yourself a disservice. You lost your job because you talked
yourself out of it.
