Health Tips

Our body is genetically designed to eat certain types of food. Let me go over the various reasons why a diet that has more of refined starch and insufficient quantity of whole grain foods will actually ENSURE YOU DO NOT LOSE WEIGHT.

The basic nature of refined starch is cloggy. Due to this quality, starch and its residues stick to the digestive track and other parts of the body. All the goodies like cakes, cookies, biscuits, crackers, tortillas and snack chips, a lot of breakfast cereals, corn chips, white flour and white rice all contain refined starch which means that all the fibers have been removed from them. These kinds of food get stuck and they actually rot before they are eliminated from our body.

A change in the diet plan is required if you really desire a rapid weight loss. Eliminate foods with refined starch and include raw vegetables like lettuce, carrots and cabbage etc. Reduce your intake of sugar. Doing this will surely ensure a drastic and rapid weight loss. One of the main reasons for rapid weight loss can be attributed to the fact that the cloggy food will get scraped out by the fibers found in raw vegetables.

A balanced diet is the key to successful and rapid weight loss. By balanced I mean that if you have a meal that includes refined starch, just make sure you add a lot of salad with raw veggies to it. Remember, raw uncooked vegetables contain good fiber that helps keep the food moving and prevents the refined starch from sticking to the digestive track. The digestive track holds on to the fibers from raw vegetables and uses them as a vehicle to move the food through the intestines.

On Planet Earth, no creature eats food with refined starch. The only exception to this fact is Human Beings. Elimination of fiber from a natural product is done using technologically advanced machinery. As technology advances, more and more products with refined starch are available in the market and therefore it is only in recent years that products containing refined starch are consumed by all strata of society. As a result the “Obesity Wave” has hit most of the advanced countries and is spreading like an epidemic.

The motives behind wanting a rapid weight loss vary from person to person. You may want to have a slim and trim figure to get into skin fit outfits, or sport the best beach wear when on a vacation or just simply look great and feel healthy. Whatever the reason, few rules that you will have to follow for a rapid weight loss are:

•    CUT OUT
o    Refined Starch
o    Sodas
o    Simple sugars – avoid desserts and sweets

•    REPLACE WITH ALTERNATIVES
o    Replace sweet drinks with fresh fruit or vegetable juices like orange juice or carrot juice. The enzymes and minerals from raw fruits and vegetables get rid of the toxic fat stored in the body. Detoxification is a must for a consistent, lasting and rapid weight loss as well as for prevention of diseases.
o    Try out oils like extra virgin olive oil (it is non-clogging oil) in place of hydrogenated oils. Strike off lard, bacon grease and cheese from your grocery shopping list.

No walking, no jogging, no treadmill. Try out the simple things that were recommended above and you will have created a platform for a rapid weight loss program minus any form of laborious exercises. Moreover you will also be promoting good health and fitness for yourself by nourishing it with good food.

So go ahead – Take the first step towards Rapid Weight Loss – Eliminate Refined Starch.
