Healthy Weight Loss Tips
Do you live to eat or eat to live?
Too many calories you will ... overweight and shorten its life. Keep more calories than you burn each day and you gain weight. Burn more calories than you take in each day and you lose weight. That sounds short and sweet, not that? But what you eat and how much exercise and sleep, have a great impact not only on its weight, but more importantly, their health!
As I approached something to share with you in this article, I want you to know that I recently finished reading two of the best books on food, I've ever seen. The China Study, by T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D. and eat to live by Joel Fuhrman, MD Both reveal simple but surprising fact that your doctor will probably has not shared with you, and probably not even aware. The facts could show you how to dramatically improve your health and weight. Not difficult things to do, but has the knowledge and willingness to make changes.
The China Study gives comprehensive results of the most comprehensive assessment on the relationship between Diet and risk of developing the disease. Food for Life describes a revolutionary, safe formula for a rapid and sustained weight loss.
China's study provided the researchers a rare opportunity to study the effect of diet on a diet mainly based on plants. There are significant nutritional differences in Chinese and American diet. Here is a comparison of the nutrients consumed in China and the United States.
Nutritional China, United States
Calories per day 2641 1989
Total Fat (% of calories) 14.5 34-38
Dietary fiber (g / day) 33 12
Total protein (g / day) 64 91
Animal protein (% of calories) 0.8 10-11
Total iron (mg / day) 34 18
As you can see, there are huge differences between Chinese and American diets. The Chinese have a higher total consumption calories, less fat, more fiber, less protein and less animal foods, and more iron.
So what different results is what we see in the health of Chinese and American peoples? Here are some facts that may be surprising. In China, the level of cholesterol blood generally ranges from 90 to 170. In the U.S., 170-290. As the intake of animal protein increases LDL ("bad") cholesterol up. As a vegetable protein intake increases LDL ("bad cholesterol") decreases.
In cancer, here a fragment of Dr. Campbell in the study of China, "nutrients from animal foods increased tumor development while nutrients from plant foods decrease in tumor development. "In general, cancer is less common in China than in the U.S.
I noted only a few cases in this article on the relationship of diet to health. Its definitely worth noting that while "bad" cholesterol and cancer rates are more common in the U.S. in China. Since the advanced study of China became very clear that people who ate diets high in animal protein had more diseases heart disease, cancer and other diseases than those who ate diets high in vegetable protein.
So, you may ask, "What does all this have to do with weight loss?" I'm sure you've heard of the food pyramid. "Dr. Fuhrman, in his book, eat to live, food pyramid recommends different. Here at the top of the pyramid, where the food is listed that you should "rarely" consumed meat, sweets, cheese, milk, processed foods and hydrogenated oil. Poultry, eggs, oils and only allowed once a week or less. Fish and nonfat dairy products can eat twice a week or less. Whole grains, raw nuts and seeds should be 5-20% of calories. Fruits, 20-50% of calories. Beans / legumes should be 10-30% of calories. Vegetables eaten half raw, half cooked should be 30-70% of calories.
The food pyramid described above is part of Dr. Fuhrman's plan for substantial weight reduction. The reader may notice that undoubtedly has a similarity with what Dr. Campbell discovered while the study of China as the best health, too!
Some of the advice that Dr. Fuhrman ready to lose weight and keep it include
1. Remember, the salad is the main course: eat first, at lunch and dinner.
2. Coma fruit all you want, but at least four fresh fruits daily.
3. Variety is the spice of life, especially when it comes to green. Can include the following: lettuce (including Romaine, bib, Boston, red leaf, green ice, celery, spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, peppers, onions, radishes, carrots, beets, cabbage, all kinds of shoots, etc.
4. Be careful of starchy vegetables. High Limit starchy cooked grains and vegetables to one cup a day. For the most part, consider vegetables that are not green to be a starchy vegetable. Exceptions would be eggplant, peppers, onions and mushrooms.
5. Eating beans or vegetables every day.
6. Remove animals and dairy products.
7. Take a tablespoon of ground flaxseed daily.
8. Eating nuts and seeds in quantities limited, no more than one ounce per day.
So far we have only touched on what should and should not eat to be healthy and to achieve or maintain optimum weight. It is extremely important for optimal health and weight exercise regularly, get enough sleep and you may want to consider including a good multi-mineral supplement vitamin, too.
Depending on your interests and physical ability, there are many ways to exercise your way to better health. To list a few: walking, swimming, biking, jogging, running, playing sports, weight training. Select one or more forms of exercise are aerobic, build strength and burn calories. This not only helps your metabolism, but to help you gain energy and lose weight.
Last but certainly not least, is the importance of getting enough rest and sleep. No matter how healthy a diet you are, and how much you exercise, if you can not get enough sleep, be detrimental to their health.
