Low Levels Of Vitamin D Can Keep You Fat

-

This is interesting, I just read that low levels of vitamin D in your system can actually keep overweight people from losing weight. O.K., we know now that we can get vitamin D from the sun, but that dark skinned people and even people with a dark tan won't absorb as much "D" as light skinned people. Vitamin D from the sun is a bonus anyway, the sun can't give you too much. So now your diet and supplements will become important. The body needs vitamin D, it's important for weight loss, but also helps to ward off a long list of diseases including cancer.

So how do we put more vitamin D in our diet? Diary products and eggs all contain "D". Some fish and vegetables contain Vitamin D and supplements in the vitamin section of your drug store or grocery store. Food is really the best way for your body to absorb any vitamin. There are foods like salmon and egg yolks that contain "D" naturally and some like milk and cheese that are fortified with vitamin D. However you get your "D" it's important to get it. The older you are the more you need, so if your buying "D's" are the drug store, talk to the pharmacist and see how much you should take.

Multi-vitamins may be a waste of time and money, it depends who you talk to, but definitely take Vitamin D. Your doctor will probably tell you the same thing.

I was shocked when I read that you need vitamin D to lose weight. That's not something that diet experts talk about but the more I read the more it makes sense.

I get email every week from people that have trouble losing weight. I know we all lose weight differently and have to use different methods so I'm not discounting anything. I also learned recently that taking CBD's will help you lose weight. I'm just into maintaining so I'll probably not be trying it, but you might want to talk to your doctor about CBD's.

The Mediterranean diet is based on the traditional foods eaten by people living in the Mediterranean region, especially Greece. It's loaded with healthy foods and research findings suggest following this diet may help reduce some of the risk factors for heart disease.  According to the Oldways Preservation & Exchange Trust, the Mediterranean diet was introduced in 1993 by Oldways, Harvard School of Public Health and the World Health Organization.  The diet includes: Olives and olive oil Whole grains, mostly in bread and cereal rather than pasta Very little red meat Fish and seafood Some cheese, but less milk Lots of vegetables and fruit Plenty of legumes and nuts A little red wine The Mediterranean diet is high in fiber and antioxidants from vegetables, legumes and nuts, far greater than the typical Western diet, and low in saturated fat.

Changing Your Life To Lose Weight

-

I can let you in on the ultimate secret for successfully making a change in your life. A century’s worth of psychological research reveals an interesting paradox in who we are. On the one hand, once we reach adulthood our basic personalities remain unchanged for the rest of our lives. We keep doing the same things—and feeling the same ways—over and over. But, on the other hand, every day we change our behavior drastically in response to different environments. Most of us are one person at work, for example, and another person at home. It is easier to change our environment than to change ourselves. So, if you want to change yourself, change your environment. Said differently: Whenever possible, don’t try to fight temptations – avoid them! The easiest way to make a change in your life is to modify the world around you in ways that will naturally drive you toward making, and maintaining, the change you want. There are many ways to change your environment, but let’s focus

Cancer and High Protein Diets

-
On the Fox TV Network the other night, one of the big stories was about high protein diets. A new study has shown a link between the over consumption of animal protein and how it can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. It seems we all have cancer cells but they don’t normally grow, unless we consume too much animal fat, dairy or fats from processed foods. Before I continue I want to explain about the link to cancer. After all, Man has been eating red meat for millions of years, right. That's true but todays red meat is not the same. Most red meat that we buy in the supermarket comes from Steers that have been raised in feed lots on a grain diet that is full of hormones and other chemicals that shorten the growing time and put more fat on the animal. These hormones and other chemicals stay in the meat and what you're buying will contain the chemicals that the animal ate. Normally a grass feed Steer that lives on the range in big herds will take 18 to 20 months to grow to
