More recent research shows that drinking alcohol suppresses fat burning, leading to greater storage of calories as fat, which as Suter notes, “is preferentially deposited in the abdominal area.”When Suter combined the experimental evidence with results from large population studies, he concluded that alcohol’s calories count more toward weight gain in moderate drinkers who don’t imbibe daily.He also reports that alcohol’s calories likely “count more in combination with a high-fat diet and in overweight and obese subjects.”In other words, too much alcohol could be the perfect recipe for unwanted pounds this holiday season But that doesn’t mean you have to be a teetotaler.

WASHINGTON A proposal to divert funds from a federal program that reimburses hospitals for the cost of treating illegal immigrants has angered lawmakers in California and other border states.Under the proposal the House Appropriations Committee planned to consider today, some of those funds would be shifted to help states cover shortfalls in a children’s health insurance program.But the plan, which would affect hospitals nationwide, drew a sharp response from lawmakers from border states, where hospitals struggle with the cost of care for illegal immigrants unable to pay their bills.House aides were scrambling Wednesday night to scrap the proposal and find other ways to make up the shortfalls in the children’s health insurance program.The staffers had proposed tapping the funds used to pay hospitals for illegal immigrant healthcare because they incorrectly believed that hospitals had forfeited the funds, which are left over from previous years.California hospital officials were optimistic Wednesday night that the plan would be scrapped.With almost half of California’s hospitals operating in the red, lawmakers such as Rep Lucille Roybal-Allard (D-East Los Angeles) and Sen.
