Exercising - Good?

Exercising - Good?
The "biggest loser", Charles Atlas, Jack Lalane, Jane Fonda, Richard Simmons, and Judi Sheppard Missett (Jazzercise) all participated in the exercise craze that attempted to mimic the cult of the athlete in the quest for a moderate weight. This has subsequently increased the success of orthopedics, podiatry and chiropractics with no lasting success for the fight against OBESITY. Euripides stated 2400 years ago "Athletes are slaves to their belly, and know not how to live well. In youth they strut about in splendor, the idols of the fans, but when old age comes upon them they are cast aside like worn out coats. Neglecting the old rule of health which prescribes moderation in all things they spend their lives in over-exercising, in over-eating and over sleeping. Hence they seldom live to old age and if they do, they are crippled and liable to all sorts of diseases. They have not health nor have they beauty. Even those who are naturally well proportioned become fat and bloated, their faces are often shapeless and unsightly." We need to avoid this trap and move into understanding how to eat, how to wisely exercise so our precious muscles, tendons and joints are not damaged. We offer this new common sense approach to weight loss for the rest of your life.

Water is REALLY good for you!!!

Use Water to Lose Weight and Maintain the Loss

ENOUGH water can reduce the risk of colon and bladder cancer by 50%.

Water facilitates removal of toxic waste from joints, kidneys, liver, brain and skin

Water assists blood to flow freely avoiding clots and strokes

Water helps the brain signals flow more efficiently

AND Water

HELPS WEIGHT LOSS HAPPEN AND MAINTAINS IT ONCE YOU LOSE THE EXCESS WEIGHT

WHAT IS ENOUGH

To estimate the amount divide your weight in pounds by 2 and this is roughly the  water intake you need per day.  A 200 pound person would need 100 ounces of water or about 10 ½  8 ounce glasses of water. No wonder overweight people suffer form arthritis because they are ALWAYS dehydrated and the joints erode from use when dehydrated

How can I get my water

1.     Start every day with 8 ounces of water, not coffee

2.     Keep a water bottle in your car to sip on instead of eating something

3.     Add a little flavor to the water; mint, melon, cucumber, lime, lemon and consider Propel Water

4.     Before every normal meal drink an eight ounce glass of water.

5.     End your day with an 8 ounce glass of soothing decaffeinated tea while watching the news or reading or listening to music

This is already 5 glasses not counting #2 and #3

Caffeine drinks like coffee, teas and sodas (diet or regular) dehydrate you and increase your appetite and hasten dehydration.

Avoid caffeine !! other than coffee 1-2 cups per day or 1-2 diet sodas , 8 ounces each drink – NO MORE.

Your will feel better right away and you will lose weight and your lost weight will not come back.

Alcohol and Weight Gain

Alcohol and Weight Gain

Alcohol is a special case. Alcohol is metabolized mostly in the liver. Some 80 % of the calories from a shot of vodka, for instance, will go straight to the liver to be converted into a small amount of energy and a large amount of a molecule called "citrate". The citrate then fuels the process that makes fatty acids  out of our glucose we ingest. So alcohol will increase the production of fat in the liver , which probably explains alcoholic fatty liver syndrome. It might also make us fatter elsewhere, although whether we store these fats as fat or burn them might depend on whether we eat or drink carbohydrates with the alcohol, which we usually do. Roughly a third of the calories in a typical beer, for instance, come originally from maltose - a refined carbohydrate - compared with the two-thjirds from the alcohol itself.
A beer belly is the conspicuous result.

Importance of Protein Quality

The importance of Protein Quality
Proteins are very important molecules in our cells. They are involved in virtually all cell functions. Consideration of protein quality is especially important while on a diet because all of your cells function through their proteins. Your diet must provide the proper balance of amino acids and nitrogen essential for your body to satisfy protein synthesis and glucose production, basic biological functions needed for cell growth and maintenance. A high quality protein provides the essential amino acids in the proper balance. The protein in all meal replacement products manufactured by our supplier ( Robard Corporation ) has a perfect amino acid score of 1.0 according to the Protein Digestibility-Corrected Amino Acid Scoring ( PDCAAS) by the FDA to ensure optimal nutrition for optimal health.
Remember if you do not protect your body with high protein ingestion during weight loss you lose muscle mass and this is not only arms and legs but your heart.
Come see us for weight loss and we are the only program with a MD/NP in EVERY clinic on site.
