Why Weight Management Instead Of Weight Loss?


  Advertisements

Simply because weight management works and weight loss doesn’t.

An obsession with losing weight will usually bring on a rebound where the weight is gained back – and often more of it! There are three major causes for this phenomenon, and they have their root in the fact that each of us humans is a team of physical, mental, and emotional players.

The physical body needs adequate nutrition in order to stay healthy and active. We are not like a car that is built by someone, used by someone, maintained by someone, fixed by someone, and eventually discarded by someone. Our building and maintaining happens literally from WITHIN, through our own cell’s regeneration. When you think about it, it is quite a miracle. There is not a single cell in your body that [ Continue Reading ]

Hoodia – what it is, what it is used for?

Deep in the Kalahari Desert in South Africa a prickly like plant called Hoodia grows that could literally take your appetite away. Although this plant has been gathered and eaten by local habitants for probably 100,000 years, it was only recently documented as being discovered in the 1960’s as a possible appetite suppressant.

The plant looks very much like a cactus, is light green in color and has stalks with very sharp prickly spines. Unlike other appetite suppressants sold on the market today, Hoodia will not give your body a jittery feeling or a fast heart rate. Typical diet pills have ingredients like ephedrine or caffeine, which cause blood pressure to be elevated and give you a shaky feeling.

Water is a Miracle Weight Loss Drink

We have all heard it and most of us have ignored it; if you want to lose weight you need to drink more water. Eight 8-oz. glasses of water per day is the recommendation from health professionals for optimal health. For many people, that just seems like too much, especially because exchanging the same amount of pop or coffee defeats the purpose of drinking the water in the first place.

There are many reasons to drink up. First of all, Americans have not changed their water intake in the past ten years, but have added 20 ounces of soda to their daily intake. This excess of sugary pop is recognized as one of the reasons for the huge increase in obesity over the past 10 years. It makes sense that we are drinking more pop; since pop tends to be a regular choice for diners, and eating [ Continue Reading ]

A Liquid Diet to Lose Weight

One of the easiest ways of getting tons of nutrition while helping your chances of losing weight is through a liquid diet. Now I’m not talking about packaged protein shakes or low calorie drinks but rather whole food smoothies and juices that pack tons of fruits and vegetables into a single glass.

The recommended daily intake of fruits and vegetables is 5-10 servings yet less than 20% of North Americans meet that requirement. The reasons are many but a very simple way to remedy this issue is to get a number of those servings by way of a single smoothie or juice.

This way not only will you get an abundance of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants but you also lessen the burden on your digestive system. I’m sure you can understand that anything liquid takes far [ Continue Reading ]
