Health and Wellness -Raw Food Diet

Thursday, May 6th, 2010

 

If a raw food diet sounds intriguing but you cannot imagine giving up cooked food, guess what – you don’t have to! To be considered a “raw foodie only 75 percent of your diet needs to be raw, and you can still reap the benefits.

The Pros of Raw Food

The basis behind the raw food diet believes that cooking food above 116 degrees Fahrenheit will destroy enzymes that would otherwise aid in digestion. Additionally, raw food has twice as much protein as cooked food and is higher in potassium, magnesium, foliate, fibre and phytochemicals. This combination has linked the raw food diet to:

  • Improved digestion
  • More energy
  • Weight loss
  • Clear skin
  • Better sleep
  • Lower cholesterol

Though some raw food diets consist of uncooked dairy and meat products, most raw foodie stick to plants, including fruit, vegetables, sprouts, seeds, grains, nuts and beans. But again, 25 percent of the time you can splurge on cooked food – that is if you still have a taste for it after going raw, which many raw foodies don’t.

The Cons of Raw Food

There are three important factors to keep in mind if you or someone you know is considering a raw food diet:

1) When you start a raw food diet, your body will go through a detoxification. At first this may cause headaches, nausea and cravings for cooked food.

2) It is essential that you learn how to get the right nutritional balance in the raw food you choose, as raw foodie sometimes experience nutritional deficiencies of calcium, iron, B12, protein and calories.

3) If you are pregnant or nursing, have anaemia, are at risk of osteoporosis or are considering a raw food diet for your children, seek a doctor’s advice first.

The Expense

Some may wonder why the cost of the raw food diet is not in the “cons” category, but it’s actually not as expensive as you might think. You will need to invest in equipment and ingredients necessary for most raw food recipes. But you may already have some or all of the key elements you’ll need – a food processor, blender, juicer and food dehydrator.

Health and Wellness - Exercise

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

Many people complain of gaining weight despite daily exercise. How does this occur? There may be various reasons of gaining weight even when doing exercises in daily routine.

The most common reason for weight gain is simply more calories consumption than calories being burned. Exercise will not help you lose weight if you do not change you eating habits. You assume that just because you are exercising you will automatically lose weight. But even if you do several hours of vigorous exercise everyday, and eat more than you burn, you will still gain weight.

You believe that whatever excess calories you eat today you will be able to burn tomorrow by doing more exercise than normal. You cheat yourselves by not giving your all when you exercise. You spend a lot of time in a gym but most of the minutes are spent socializing. Many times you work out at very low intensities when you are capable of burning more calories. So the frequency and duration of your workouts is appropriate but the intensity is sorely lacking. Many time you think you are exercising regularly when in reality your workout attendance is few and far in between.

It is possible to become smaller in measurements but gain weight on the scale because you are losing fat and gaining muscle. This happens especially when you do weight training. But some people are so weight conscious that even if they lose inches, they are not happy because they weigh a few pounds more than others. You need an attitude adjustment: otherwise, you may quit exercising, thinking it is not worth it when you are really on the right track.

Health and Wellness - Weigh Loss

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

 

Although some dietary methods are ready to make you think that the only way to lose weight effectively is by spending never ending hours at the gym, or by eliminating all fat or carbs from your diet. In fact there are many other ways to achieve weight loss.

Natural methods that are simple to add to your daily lifestyle: fat binders.

Now before say that weight loss supplements do not work, take a moment and listen to this point.

Perhaps it is a fact that there are a lot of weight loss supplements that have no backing or clinical trials to prove they are really effective. You will find that this is not the case by taking a closer look.

It is just a matter of learning how to find what really works while keeping a conscious view of all the others tips available.

Take the Telegraph’s article discussing their top 5 recommended ways for losing weight in 2008.

• Eat 6 meals a day – Raise your body’s metabolism and prevent snacking by breaking your 3 regular meals into 6 smaller meals.
• Fat binders – we know that fat binders are common when it comes to weight loss supplements, but compared to chemically enriched supplements that affect the nervous system, fat binders are 100% natural. They work to make 28% of your fat indigestible in your digestive tract, while also effectively suppressing your appetite.
• Online support – the Telegraph proves not all effective weight loss is about taking a supplement or exercise. You can get the confidence you need with a strong support system to stay focused on your weight loss goals while helping you keep it off. Many online weight loss supplements can provide you with that type of support.
• Eat Breakfast – Telegraph proves that losing weight doesn’t have to involve changing your diet. By simply eating a healthy breakfast each morning you can set your metabolism up for the rest of the day, and keep it burning fast.
• Realistic exercise plan- weight loss and exercise come hand in hand in terms of successful weight loss, but the most common mistake people make is setting themselves unrealistic goals which they cannot achieve. The best way is to build up your fitness levels is to start with a 10 minute walk until you are able to do more.

So as the Telegraph’s clearly points out there are many other alternatives that you can choose from to experience natural easy weight loss. Food, exercise, support groups or natural weight loss supplements, all of these can make your road to successful weight loss, easy, fun and accessible.

Health and Wellness - Weigh Loss

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

 

How much weight can you lose in just 7 days? How much weight you can lose depends on a few factors such as your starting weight, body type and your staying power to resist temptation.

You should start your 1 week weight regime by setting yourself an achievable target. No matter how hard you try, you will not lose half of your body weight in a short space of time. Set your self several small goals throughout the week. If you plan on trying to lose 7 pounds in a week, then you should set yourself the target of 1 pound weight loss per day. By hitting the smaller targets, your confidence will increase daily and you are more likely to achieve your end result.

Take care as weighting yourself daily is not recommended, because most peoples weight fluctuates, depending on when you eat and how much water you drink. I suggest weight yourself first thing in the morning before breakfast is a good time.

Health and Wellness - Obesity Campaigns

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

According to a report in the health journal Obesity, scientists examining the efficiency of public health campaigns against obesity have discovered that such programs may result in the opposite of the intended effect.

The research shows that public service announcements designed to encourage over-eaters to abstain from sweet and fatty foods and get more exercise may actually inspire people to indulge even more.

In a study conducted at the University of Illinois, scientists asked 53 college students to evaluate a series of motivational posters designed to promote exercise. After rating the posters, the students were then given a container of raisins and asked to judge the quality of the raisins, being told that they could eat as many as they needed to make a proper evaluation.

Researchers then conducted the experiment again, this time substituting the exercise endorsements for another set of posters promoting things like team-work and activist groups. As with the first group, the subjects were then asked to rate raisins and told to eat as many as needed.

The researchers observed that those students who had analyzed the posters promoting exercise consumed significantly more raisins before making their evaluations than those in the control group.

Delores Alberracin, a professor of psychiatry and lead author of the study, believes that the posters encouraging exercise may have simply inspired the subjects to do something – though not necessarily exercise. As food was then made available, eating then became something to do.

The significance of this study for public health projects, Albarracin suggests, is that we need to be more cautious about when and where we try to motivate people to work out. For example, she said, commercials intended to encourage people to activity may not be effective when people are sitting in front of a television with a pantry full of snacks in the kitchen.

Dr. Louis Aronne, clinical professor of medicine and director of the Comprehensive Weight Control Program at New York-Presbyterian Hospital, says that the study highlights the controversial possibility that public health campaigns may cause more harm than good if not targeted correctly.
