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 vit...

Exercise is a big part of losing weight, but I don't mean you have to sweat it off. You can loss weight without any exercise just by maintaining a proper diet.

If you build enough muscle, the muscle will eat up the fat just to maintain it's size and strength. In another post I wrote that a stunt man that had the "perfect body" would cut back in the off-season but when he was getting back in shape for a movie he would eat protein and good fats to bulk-up for his role. If your going to build muscle you n...

Does the Bacteria In Your Gut Help You Lose Weight?

  For years, we thought of bacteria as organisms to avoid. It turns out our bodies are already loaded with trillions of bacteria. They help digest food and play an important role in your well-being.  So yes, there is a sensitive balance of bacteria in your stomach that breaks down your food. If you are not eating a well-balanced diet and you disturb the balance (too much acid and not enough alkaline) you end up with heartburn or acid reflux or worse and yes you’ll gain weight because too much of your food will be stored in fat cells. If you are doing anything to slow down the digestive process more of your food will be stored instead of processed. Research suggests your gut bacteria are tied to your probability of things like diabetes, obesity, depression, and colon cancer. What Are Gut Bacteria? Living inside your gut are 300 to 500 different kinds of bacteria containing nearly 2 million genes. Paired with other tiny organisms like viruses and fungi, they make what’s known as...
