Getting to Know HCG

By Amelia Handley

Everyone knows how to lose weight. You eat healthy foods. You don't eat unhealthy foods. You eat less than you feel like eating. And you spend a chunk of time each day exercising.

But then...why is it so hard for so many people to lose weight? The factor that defeats most people is time. Changing your routine to add exercise sounds easy, but it takes up your time. Eating healthy sounds simple, but it means going to the store far more often and spending a lot more time in your own kitchen instead of the nearest drive thru.

So what if you just don't have all that time to dedicate? If you don't have the time to dedicate...you don't end up losing any weight. When you don't lose any weight you're frustrated and unhappy. It becomes a very negative cycle.

So what about all those famous people who seem able to drop pounds instantaneously? Having babies, gaining 30 pounds for a role, going off the deep end for a year or so...it doesn't really matter why they gain the weight, but it seems that as soon as they decide enough is enough they snap their fingers and they're back looking hot and fabulous on the red carpet. What do they have that makes that possible? They have HCG.

HCG is the basis for a diet created by Dr. Simeon. HCG and B12 work together with a low calorie food regimen to give actual results. No frozen meals are required and there are no negative side effects. It's an all natural diet based on substances created by the body. It's also the key to actual weight loss. Successfully following the plan can result in an average of 1 pound per day of weight loss.

You still have to give some of your time to the cause, but this particular diet makes it a worthy cause. Immediate results make putting your time and energy into the HCG diet well worth it. The program offers full results within 15-40 days depending upon the regime you choose, but either way, you'll see the results you've been looking for and you'll see them before you fall off the wagon. - 17273

Gut healthy super foods with high fibre content. Acai berries

By Jeremy James Liddle

Eat more fibre?. Easy to say but hard to do? So why is fibre so good?

A great way to feel full quicker and lose weight is consuming a high fibre diet (30-40g per day). This can also reduce the risk of chronic disease, cancer, and heart disease.

Plant foods are the best sources of fibre, foods such as vegetables, legumes, fruit, whole grain cereals, nuts and seeds. These are important for the gut to function properly. It is also very important to drink lots of fluids such as water which causes the fibre to swell and act as a sponge, and to regulate gut movement.

Fibre soaks up sugar in the foods eaten because it acts like a sponge, releasing is slowly and helping control blood sugar levels. it also reduces cholesterol absorption and excretion, reducing blood cholesterol and risk of heart disease.

That's not all. Foods that are high in fibre expand in the stomach and intestine like a sponge to help the feeling being full, and these foods tend to be those low in energy. These foods are said to have low energy density. If compared to a bag of lollies, there is no fibre in lollies and they are very high in energy, and they don't act like a sponge and expand in the stomach to help the feeling of being full, thus preventing more eating.

Eating the acai berry helps to prevent weight gain and risk of obesity because it means eating less energy for the same weight of food.

There is a relatively high fiber content in organic freeze dried acai of 1.4g (per 5g serve) compared with an apple (1.8g) or a weetbix (1.8g). In an Acai smoothie with 3 scoops of organic freeze dried Aa powder, there is around 4g of dietary fibre! The new recommended intake for Australia and New Zealand suggest we consume 30g of fibre per day. - 17273

A look at the Acai berry

By Jackson Fernandez

Acai is a smallish berry that's purple in color, and it's native to the rainforests of the Amazon, especially in Brazil. The natives of Brazil have known of the wonderful benefits of acai for many years, and now you can experience the renewed vitality that acai brings. The acai berry has a lot of benefits, like a drop in blood pressure, and an increase in energy. Some even believe it's an aphrodisiac.

Acai has the highest antioxidant level of any fruit known to man. Antioxidants are powerful chemicals that can cancel out the harmful effects of free radicals in the human body. There are other purplish berries (blueberries immediately come to mind) that contain a lot of these antioxidants, but acai is the biggest source.

Acai skins are loaded with anthocyanins. These are very powerful antioxidants, that are also found in large quantities in red wine and red grape skins.. Berries from the acai plant are packed with fiber, plant sterols, fatty acids, and polyphenols.

If you're struggling with high cholesterol, acai's plant sterols can possibly help bring your levels under control. No food can solve every medical condition, but there's a lot of evidence that supplementing your diet with acai can make you feel better and have more energy.

Add some acai juice to a glass of tea, or maybe blueberry, cranberry, or pomegranate juice. Or, if you prefer, enjoy it by itself! Capsulated acai supplements are also widely available, and there are even some nutrition bars that have acai as a main ingredient.

Numerous studies have outlined the benefits of acai supplementation. A study by the University of Florida from 2006 seems to further prove the cancer-battling nature of the acai fruit. Lab tests, done by giving cancer cells a potent shot of acai, resulted in the death of those cells. More research is being done by the day, and the outlook for acai as a cancer-fighter is very promising.

On the Oprah show, Dr. Oz talked about acai and its many health benefits, bringing this wonderful fruit into the spotlight. If you're looking for acai supplements, they can be found in health food stores, grocery stores, drugstores, and online outlets. Try acai berries in a drink or in capsule form, but everyone should reap the benefits of this "wonder fruit". - 17273

Tonalin CLA Fights Belly Fat

By Jane Moore

Tonalin CLA caplets seem to be getting some positive reviews these days from an assorted bunch of reputable sources. It's enough to get me interested enough to give them a go. I struggle relentlessly with a stubborn 10 or 15 pounds and I need some sort of extra boost to get me on the right track. In the event that CLA doesn't work for me then I have lost nothing because there are no side effects and the cost of a one or two month supply is fairly minimal.

I am impressed with what I have read so far on the subject. The two most interesting reports have come from two research universities in North America. One university is is American and is located in Wisconsin. The other university is Canadian and can be found in Guelph, Ontario. Both of these controlled scientific studies claim that Tonalin CLA really helps overweight people lose weight and maintain their new weights.

The Canadian study was conducted first and was based out of the University of Guelph in Ontario. The study was conducted in November and December and was particularly focused on monitoring the potential weight change over the Christmas holidays. It was an eight week study and studied 60 over weight adults. Thirty people took a CLA pill everyday while the other thirty people took a placebo pill. The results were simply remarkable. The CLA group lost weight in the time period leading up to the holidays and didn't gain any weight over the holidays even when they didn't exercise and ate loads of holiday treats. The placebo group gained some weight leading up to the holidays and then gained even more weight over the holidays.

Impressed by what they heard out of Canada, a group of researchers from the University of Wisconsin tried to repeat the Canadian results and were entirely successful. The American study used forty overweight adults and they studied them for six months including the 8 weeks used in the Canadian study. The participants in the American study also claimed to have lost fat from their belly region when they took daily a CLA pill. The cardiovascular experts were delighted with this extra result as belly fat can lead to heart disease which is a deadly threat to their patients.

Both the Canadian and American studies made sure that that all of the participating subjects consumed approximately the same amount of calories per day. Furthermore, all of the subjects had the same amount of daily exercise. By controlling for diet and exercise, the research teams could make certain that it was the CLA pill that was the catalyst for any changes.

I tend to look at the authors of research publications when deciding if the research is credible. In this case professionals at two respectable North American Universities conducted the studies. This means a lot to me. I am going to start taking Tonalin CLA and continue with my regular diet and exercise. - 17273

What are the benefits of using a masticating juicer?

By Daniel Williams

What you will soon discover when it comes to buying a juicer is there are plenty of different shapes, sizes and models to select from. But each of these will allow you to extract fresh juice from a variety of different fruits and vegetables to drink instead of buying the ready prepared type from your local grocery store. Preparing your own fresh juice is not only good for your health but can save you money as well. There are two kinds of equipment that people will use for extracting juice either the centrifugal juicer or the masticating juicer.

Below we look at what the benefits are to be had from owning a masticating juicer rather than some of the other juicers that are available. However, you first need to understand a bit about how these particular juicers operate. Whereas the centrifugal juicer will shred the pulp at high speed using the blades contained within it a masticating juicer actually uses the blades at slow speed to chew up the pulp of the fruit or vegetables.

These types of machines are fitted with either one or two cutters and the single blade versions tend to be the much cheaper ones. However, if you want a model that is able to extract the juice for hard fruits, vegetables or wheatgrass then you would better to go with those models that come with two cutters on them.

So what benefits can you gain from owning a masticating juicer rather than the centrifugal type ones?

1. Firstly as these juicers operate a low speeds they not only extract more juice but far less oxygen is produced as the process is carried out. Much less oxygen in the juice helps to extend its shelf life and so you can make up large batches at one time and then store in the fridge until you want to drink it.

2. To extract the juice from the fruit and vegetables placed into this type of juicer it goes through a number of different stages. This helps to breakdown the fiber in the food more effectively which causes more of the nutrients that our bodies need to pass into the juice rather than staying in the pulp.

3. As previously mentioned these machines have the capability of dealing with soft and hard fruits as well as wheatgrass. So instead of you spending money on a wheatgrass juicer which could be very expensive you can rely on a masticating juicer to do the necessary work for you instead.

4. Along with these machines being great for producing large amounts of fresh juice from fruit and vegetables they can be used in other ways. There are plenty of mothers out there who are saying how simple these machines are to use when they want to prepare healthy nutritional meals for their baby.

5. These machines not only make far less noise than other types of juicers but also they create a lot less mess. Plus another major benefit to be gained from having a masticating juicer over the other models available is that they are a lot easier to clean after they have been used.

As you can see from above there are many reasons why you should think about purchasing a masticating juicer over the centrifugal models. When you look online you will soon see just how many different models there are to select from and before you decide which one to buy you need to make a decision on how much you want to spend on one. - 17273

The Health Aid That Ionized Water Can Achieve

By Chris Channing

The health industry has been active in rumors of how ionized water has become the next health fad. But consumers who are now finding out about the new fad aren't exactly chemists themselves- so who should they trust? The science behind water ionization is actually easy to pick up if you keep an open mind.

Ionized water is defined as water that contains electrically-charged atoms known as ions. Ions are used to either make the water acidic or alkaline. Both of these terms are used to describe the acidic level of the water, whereas alkaline water is devoid of acid. One of the goals is to remove acidic solution from the water passed through the filter, so you can treat your body to healthier water.

The scientific background of alkaline water in itself is interesting. It is known that alkaline water is able to carry more oxygen than that of acidic water. Health professionals claim that the increase in oxygen will better hydrate the body upon consumption, in addition to preventing acid buildup in our bodies.

As soon as information on antioxidants came out, anyone who cared about their health started including fruits and certain foods in their diet. Even though this might have meant that more food costs were suffered through, it was worth the health benefit. Ionized water is said to be an antioxidant itself, which allows for a much more cost effective means of gaining the same benefit.

Ionized water is achieved through a process called electrolysis. This method allows the breakdown of water particles to make a "wetter" water. It is also said that since the atoms in the water are more compacted, you can gain more hydration from less water. This could be of benefit to those who practice sports, but also in applications such as keeping hydrated for a speech or important meeting where faltering could be critical.

The process of creating ionized water has been perfected, but the science behind it has not just yet. There are many claims of benefit that ionized water was attested to, but some argue that the sciences behind water ionization have yet to be confirmed. As more studies are conducted in the meantime, it's helpful to read other stories of how water ionization has helped out the lives of thousands all over the world since its debut.

Closing Comments

The cost of ionization machines is a bit steep, but worth it when considering the level of boon that they allow for. Ionization machines can be easily found online, where a large selection of devices and designs is available for consumers with different price ranges in mind for such machines. - 17273
