Practical ways to get thin and skinny
 

To be slim and get slim if you are not slim in the first place, is a good thing. To be thin is not necessarily so good. A thin person may have too litle fat on his or her body. To get skinny is even worse. If you are skinny you are way too slim.

But why then this heading for the following advices? The reason is that the average person in most countries nowadays is downright fat, plainly speaking, or even sickly fat, and is steadily growing fatter. As the average populateon is constantly growing fatter, the words thin and skinny are changing meaning. People's concept about what is normal has been disturbed. Today people that plainly speaking are too fat, are often called slim. People that has a sound weight are nowaday called thin, skinny and even anorectic. And for people being really anorectic, the modern language soon lacks any word.

Here are listed the basic principles you must follow to successfully get slim and stay slim thereafter. All effective slimming methods propagated as diet programs are nothing but special ways of using these priciples.

Some people ask how to get slim fast. The principles outlined below do not teach you how to get slim, thin or skinny fast. It is not healthy to engage in a program that result in a fast weight reduction. A fast slimming process will also usually reverce and you will soon add weight again and get even fatter than before. The principles below will instedad teach you how you can reach your goal in a reasonable pace and in a sound way, and then stay slim afterwards.

To permanently reduce weight and get slim, you must eat healthy food, you must reduce your consume of fat and carbohydrates and you have to exercise regularly. Here are some practical measures to fulfill this goal outlined in a concrete way:

- Eat less food than you used to do.

- However, you must not starve yourself. Eat regularly 4 (or 5) moderate meals each day. In this way your blood sugar level will not decrease to so low amounts that it hinders you to be physically active, and prompts you over-eat.

- Do not consume fast-food or other sorts of pre-made food. Make your meals from pure raw ingredients that you buy yourself. In this way you have full control of what you put into your body.

- Do not eat between the meals.

- Each meal shall include some lean protein-rich element like lean fish, poultry, mushrooms, lean diary prodcts or lean meat.

- Lean diary products are especially valuable in a weight loss program, because the calcium in these product binds the fat so that it is not so easiily is taken up in the intestines.

- Cut away all visible fat from meat, poultry or fish.

- Each meal shall also include some vegetables or fruit. These shall be raw or only gently cooked.

- In each meal there shall also be some whole corn bread or cereals, beans, peas or potatoes as a carbohydrate and energy source. It is important to vary the energy source from meal to meal. Do not only use bread or potatoes.

- Fat fish, nuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, olives and the like contain very much fat. But the fat is of a type that is valuable for your health. You shall therefore eat some of these food types every day, but in moderate amounts. You may however choose to increase the amount of these ingredients in your diet if you reduce the amount of bread, and other carbohydrate sources.

- Do not add much extra oil, butter, fat sauces, fat dressings, sugar or sweet sauces to your food.

- The little fat you add to your food should be of natural chemically unaltered types like virgin olive oil, sunflower oil, rape oil / canola oil, soy oil, fish oil or natural butter. Vary the oil type to get all essential fatty acids.

- Ideally you should not consume sweet beverages, except fruit juice in moderate amounts.

- Reduce your alcohol consume. Alcohol is converted to fat in your body.

- Drastically reduce your consume of snacks, ice-cream, cakes, cookies, chocolate and the like.

- Do not consume great amounts of salt. Salt does not make you fat, but it binds water in your body and this excessive water contribute to your weight problem. When you loose fat, the fat also tends to be replaced by water. Reducing the salt consume will help you get rid of excessive water.

- Some people over-eat because of boredom. Find some new hobby activities or some new friends that share some of your interests.

- Do not eat during night. The body has a greater tendency to store food consumed at night as body fat.

- Do some physical exercise at least every second day. You shall include exercises that give your muscles some resistance in order to increase your muscle mass, for example weight lifting. You shall also include some activities that make you consume energy and build up your condition, like running, swimming and cycling. And you should do some stretching exercises, for example yoga postures.

- A supplement of vitamins and minerals can be useful to make your body able to burn fat effectively or increase your ability to engage in physical activities. When you reduce the amount of food you consume, also the amount of vitamins and minerals you take in will be reduced. This lack can be remanded with an extra supplement.

- On the market you can also find preparations of herbs, vitamins and minerals especially made for people in a slimming process, giving these effects: They replace a lack of vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants because of reduced eating. They help your body burn and eliminate fat. They give you a feeling of greater energy and a greater ability to be physically active. They help reduce an abnormal appetite. Some preparations also contain ingredients that reduce the uptake of fat and carbohydrates from the intestines.

- Soups and other water-rich foods fill up your stomach and make you feel satisfied. Therefore these types of food can help you from over-eating.

 

 

Get a Flat and Nice Stomach - Practical Advices


A thick or bulging stomach can be due to several factors: Too much fat under he stomach skin, too much internal fat, weak stomach muscles and engorged intestines due to trouble with the digestion. To get a really nice stomach all these factors must be taken care of with appropriate measures.

THE RIGHT DIET
A right diet is one important key to getting a nice stomach. A good diet will help you loose fat, regulate your stomach function and help to build strong belly muscles.

The diet should not contain great amounts of fat and carbohydrates, but it must contain a good portion of full valued proteins at each meal. The diet should also be as natural as possible, without much added sugar, much added fat, chemically altered fat or refined carbohydrates.

Good protein sources are fish, seafood, foul, mushrooms, lean diary products, eggs, spawn, lean meat, nuts, almonds and sunflower seeds.

You need of course some carbohydrates and fat even though you should not exaggerate the consume of these. Good sources of carbohydrates are full corn bread or cereals, peas and beans. Good sources of fat are nuts, sunflower seeds, fat fish, almonds olive oil, rape oil, almond oil, canola oil, flaxseed oil, sunflower oil and nut oils.

Try to vary between many oil types to get a right mixture of fatty acids. Do not only use soy oil, palm oil or corn oil as some do, since this will give you too much of only some fatty acids.

Food sources with much fibre, vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants will help your body to get rid of excessive fat, help to build muscles and help against bulging of your stomach due to digestive trouble. Full corn bread or cereals, vegetables and fruit contain good amounts of these necessary substances.

EXERCISES
Another necessary means to get a nice stomach are muscle exercises. You can find many good stomach exercises from a detailed instruction book, but here are three simple ones. Do at least 4 series with at least eight repetitions of one of the exercises at least every second day.

- This exercise strengthens your lover stomach area: Lie on your back. Use your hands as support under your buttocks. Lift your legs so that your feet are higher than your pelvis. Hold that position some seconds. Then lower your feet again. If your legs are straight, the exercise can be a little hard for your back. In order to make it less demanding for your back, you can flex your knees somewhat when you do the exercise.

- This exercise strengthens your upper stomach area: Lie down straight on your back. Place your hands under your neck. Lift your upper body some distance over the floor. Your whole lower body shall all the time have contact with the floor. Hold the position some seconds. Then lower your upper body again.

A variation of this exercise lets the effect work more on the sides of your stomach than at the central part: Flex up your knees and twist your knees and lower body to the left side. Then lift your upper body some times. Then flex your knees and lower body to the right side and lift up your upper body some times again.

- Training devices that allow you pull or press down with your arms are also good to strengthen your stomach muscles. You stand on your knees, then stretch your arms right out, and then push or pull down at the device. Such devices are also good to strengthen the sides of your stomach. To do so you straighten out one arm to the side and push or pull down some times, and then do the same with the other arm.

Of course you should not only exercise your stomach muscles, but have a complete exercise program for the whole body where the stomach exercises are just one module. Regular condition training like running, cycling, swimming or skiing is also valuable, because they help you to loose fat, including fat on your stomach.

It is also important not to exaggerate the stomach exercises. If you do so, you can end up with thick abdominal muscles that make your stomach look fat.

SUPPLEMENTS
On the market you can find supplements of fibres, minerals, vitamin and probiotics that are meant to increase your fat or sugar burning, regulate your digestion or stimulate tissue development. Such supplements may be of use to loose stomach fat and stimulate the strengthening of your stomach muscles.

About Acai

 

Acai or aqai is a group of species in the palm genus Euterpe. The fruit are small with a fairly thin fleshy outsideand  with a stone inside in which the seed lies.

The fruit is consumed as food and as juice. In the form of concentrates, pouder or extracts it is also used as a health remedy.

 

Content of nutrients

When the originally fleshy parts are dried and powdered, it contains per ecah 100 g typically 44.2 g fiber, 8 g carbohydrates, 8.1 g protein, and 32.5 g total fat.

The typically also contains small amounts of  vitamin C,  260 mg calcium, 4.4 mg iron, and 1002 U vitamin A, as well as aspartic acid and glutamic acid; the amino acid content was 7.69% of total dry weight.

The fat content of açaí consists mostly of omega-3acids: 56.2% oleic acid and 24.1% palmic acid.

 

Medical properties

Acai has a medium total antioxidsnt activity, but it has a very high activity against certain oxidative agents, and this specific activity zones may be of important for the value as a medical plant.

Powered acai pulp contains these amounts of substances that have or may have antioxidant properties: anthocyanins (3.19 mg/g), flavonide-like compunds like, homoorientin, orientin, taxifolin, deoxyhexose, isovitexin, scoparin, and also proanthocyanidins (12.89 mg/g), and low levels of resveratrol (1.1 μg/g).

White species of acai investigated for antioxidant activity did not seem to have significant activity, but the purple variants was excellent against superoxide and peroxyl radicals, good against peroxynitrite, and poor against hydroxyl radicals.

The powder was reported to inhibit hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidation in neutrophils, and to have a slight stimulatory effect on nitric oxide production by lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages in vitro.

Extracts of açaí seeds were reported to have antioxidant capacity against peroxyl radicals,.similar to the antioxidant capacity of the pulp, with higher antioxidant capacity against peroxynitrite and hydroxyl radicals.

Many people report that they find acai useful to help loose weight, and especially if they combine acai with colon cleanse. These experiences have probably not been investigated thorroghly scientifically yet.

The high fiber content in acai may have a beneficial effect on the function of the intestines and this beneficial effect can also influence other organs positively.

There are claims that acai help to get better heart and circulatory health. These claims may be thrue because of the content of specific antioxidative activities and because of the fiber content, but the claims have pårobably not been investigated thorroughly yet.
 

 

Is obesity an infectious disease?

The incidense of obesity has doubled in adult populations the last decades and trippled in children. The increase is seen in the whole word, also in poor countries. It is difficult to explain the weight increase as only the rustlt of diet changes and of a tendency to have less physical daily workload. Therefore one begins to suspect that some kind of infection by a slowly working virus can explain some of the weight gain.

The virus type most suspected for inducing obesity are the adenoviruses. On has tried to inoculate young animals (chuckens) with several human-infection strains of these viruses and observed the development of body weight as the animal children grow. Ad-37 is a strain that has swoqn to be cositivelly corelated with obesity devlopment through these experiments. Also Ad-36 also seems to be assiosiated with obesity, since 30% of obese people investigated for having this virus, are chronically infected by it. Animal studies have shown that also Ad-5 can cause obesity in animals, and therefore they may also cause obesity in humans.

Adenoviruses are the same virusa that cause common cold. It seems that these viruses sometimes infect the lungs without actually causing a severe lung inflammation. From there it seems that they spread through the blood stream and infect fat cells. The infections in the fat cells can then be chronic. The fat cells do not die from the infection, but istead they replicate faster so that the number of tat cells increase.

It seems that on third of obese people have such an infection. Still the infection is surely not the only factor that contribute to obesity in these persons. Also lifestyle plays a role. Therefore lifestyle changes will always be important to cure obesity.

One may ask why infection with such a common type of virus has increased this particulary aspect of its effects in the last decades.

Perhaps more people are infacted now than before, and especially early in life. The higher mobility of all populations in the world may give a higher incidense rate of infection in young children of these vira.

Perhaps people react otherwise to such infections before so that it become chronic. There may be aspects of modern life that make the immune system less effective so that this kind of infection settles more easily in the lungs and in adipose tissue. Perhaps the steadily increasing practice of vaccinating young people against a lot of infections have a side effect that alters the effectivity of the immune system in a negative wey. Perhaps the life is more stressful nowadays than before, and that alters the immune function. Perhaps the rate of breastfeeding and young children have decreased and the children therefore get a less effective immune system. Perhaps a lot of new chemical agents that young people are exposed for in the environment interfere with the immune system. The primary causes can be many. Or perhaps the environment of young people has become too sterile so that their immune system does not get the proper training.
