How to Lose Belly Fat in a Week

How to lose belly fat in a week

Weight loss is a topic that is always in debate. People argue about which methods are most effective, and what plans people should follow. Many people argue that exercise is needed, while others say that you have to eat healthy. People also assume that weight loss requires long periods of time but you can actually lose some weight in a week.

How to lose belly fat in a week, you may ask? Well first you need to know what causes weight loss. Weight loss depends on one factor: eating less calories than your body requires. For example if your body requires 2000 calories daily, and you eat 1500, you burn 500 calories a day. Even if you don’t exercise or if you don’t eat healthy (although I wouldn’t recommend eating unhealthy foods), you can still lose weight if you eat less than your body requires. So if you aren’t seeing any changes in body weight, your probably eating an amount close to what your body requires at your current weight. But if you want to lose weight your calorie intake would have to decrease. read more

A Healthy Guide to Good Nutrition

A Healthy Guide to Good Nutrition

Whether you are at your ideal weight or striving to reach your weight goal is it simply a matter of burning more calories than you take in? The answer, I suggest, is no! Overall body health improvement as well as weight gain or loss must be factored in to the equation or you could be heading for problems. Correct nutrition can help to reduce the risk of a myriad of health-related problems, the most frightening of which are surely heart disease and cancer. Proper nutrition, however, entails eating many different foods, monitoring your consumption of some food and beverage items, and counting calories. Good diets offer balanced nutrition that reduces cholesterol, blood pressure, and helps with weight control. read more

Antioxidants Naturally Found in Foods

Antioxidants Naturally Found in Foods

Why do we need to eat foods that are found to be naturally high in antioxidants?
What are antioxidants?
Which foods do we need to eat, in order to naturally fight free radicals?

Scientists have found that the body forms unstable oxygen molecules, called free radicals; every cell produces tens of thousands of them each day. A free radical is basically an atom with an odd number of electrons in its outer ring. Since electrons have a very strong tendency to exist in a paired rather than an unpaired state, free radicals indiscriminately pick up electrons from other atoms, which in turn convert those other atoms into secondary free radicals, thus setting up a chain reaction, which can cause substantial biological damage. This, in short, is bad. There are also many kinds of free radicals, which we are exposed to everyday, for example, pollution, radiation, cigarette smoke and herbicides. read more

Addictive Foods and their Harmful Consequences

Addictive Foods and their Harmful Consequences

Most of us are fond of at least one product that has the effect of a stimulant and that eventually becomes an addiction. These products include exercise stimulant drinks (they come in cans and look like cola), fizzy aerated drinks, tobacco, betel nut, betel leaf, strong coffee, strong tea, mahuang (an ephedrine-like compound consumed in china), and alcohol.

Before I tell you why we shouldn’t consume these products, I’d like to deal with the question of why we do consume them in the first place. read more

A Nutritious Diet while Traveling

A Nutritious Diet while Traveling

Sticking to a nutritious diet while traveling can be one of the more difficult things to do. However, if you learn how to make smart choices, a healthy diet is really not that difficult. It’s probably not the best time in which to start a healthy diet, but if you are currently making healthy choices in your foods already, modifying your diet slightly to accommodate travel, is not as difficult as it first may seem.

If you are traveling by airplane, your diet may have to include airplane food, which can often be of poor nutritional value, depending on the selection. When you book your flight, ask about your food options, ask if a vegetarian dish is available? Vegetarian dishes are sometimes more nutritional in this case, but it really depends on what they may be serving. If you can, eat a larger meal before your flight, so that you don’t have to eat the entire meal that is served, to feel full. read more
