Is there any side effects from taking whey protein isolate?

I do not have diabetes but will taking whey protein damage my liver or my pancreas? Will it spike insulin levels or cause blood sugar problems. I understand that a big mac hamburger contains 30 grams of protein and so does a serving of whey so Im not concerned about any kidney damage. I just want a extra boost in energy is it safe>or is it even going to give me Extra Fuel i need?

Answer

There are side effects.

Firstly, large amounts of protein make blood more acidic. To neutralize the blood, calcium is drawn from the bones. Also, production of free radicals increases, so you should counter it with a lot of antioxidants .

Secondly, (this is not common knowledge, see Dr. Russel Blaylock’s books and website) any protein isolate contains exitotoxins similar to MSG that increase level of free glutamate in the body. Glutamate cause neurons to be super exited, and then die (very simplified explanation) The effect can be as devastating as Alzheimer’s in the far future or some health issues here in there in the near future - depending on what is the weak spot in your body. One person can get depressed for example, nothing would happen to another. So please use protein isolates with caution.

If you need energy boost, consider complex carbs (nuts/seeds/grains), they do not cause insulin spike because sugar gets into the blood gradually. And they contain plant protein. Almonds, for example, have a plethora of health benefits, and 21% of weight is protein. You may also consider using superfoods like maca , ginseng etc.

Hope this helps

What are the side effects of whey protein, if any at all?

I’ve been told its just protein, but I guess I look at it as a supplement and I get a little suspicious with supplements. I’ve also heard different things from different people so not really sure what to believe I guess. So, is there any side effects of whey protein? Any health risks, effects on penis size, etc? I did hear it can cause kidney problems if you take too much, but how much is too much? Thanks in advance.

Answer

No, you won’t get any serious side effects with whey protein. Actually, you won’t really get any, besides bulking up easier… About the kidney thing.. well it’s true that if you take more than like 60g at one time it could possible negatively effect your liver by overloading it, but as long as you take it in moderation (I never said don’t take 60g, I said don’t take a whole lot more..) you’ll be perfectly fine and very satisfied.

Side effects of whey protein?

Are there any short or long term side effects from taking whey protein?

Answer

Whey protein, are just that, protein - unlike some other types of supplements and drugs, whey protein supplements contain mostly whey and some other stuff like carbohydrates, calcium, some fats, and some fancy shimancy ingredients which really aren’t that special. So in other words, you can expect very little, if any side effects of taking whey protein supplements. Other than maybe gaining some lean mass, which is what you want. Also, there have been no documented side effects of whey protein, it’s just like the food you eat, causing no side effects.

Whey Protein - Any Side Effects? How long till it works?

I recently started using Whey Protein as a suplement for my workout plan. I use 1 scoop with milk in the morning and 1 scoop with water after my workout. How long before I start seeing any results? I’m pretty sure I can see a result after a week or so, but maybe it’s my imagination? =) (I got a pretty hectic workout plan, but it’s to be more firm, not for bulking up). Also, are there any side effects? I heard that it clogs, can mess up your kidneys etc. But as I can figure thats only if you over do it is a myth. I use bout 50 grams per day.

Thanks =)

Answer

Reading some of these answers is very comical. I don’t know why people post when they have no idea what they are talking about. Myth: Protein builds muscle. The fact is amino acids are responsible for muscle repair, it is true amino acids derive from protein, but certain types of protein contain different amino acids, so you cannot generalize protein. Myth: Protein damages kidneys. The truth is protein molecules are too large to be filtered through the kidneys, they are transported from the small intestine to the liver, where the liver decides to absorb them or send them on their way to be used elsewhere.

Let me help you out.

Taking protein will help increase muscle strength/mass. It is one of the few supplements that has been proven to work. Whey protein is a faster digesting protein, so I recommend taking it right after you work out. This get the amino acids into the blood stream and available for the muscles to grab. Casein is another type of protein powder you will commonly see. This is a slow digesting protein, so its going to give your body amino acids over a longer period of time. I would take casein protein right before bed or first thing in the morning. Milk has alot of casein protein and I like the fact that you mix whey(fast digesting) and milk in the morning. Of course, you have to eat a balanced diet, protein alone cannot build muscle. As far as i can tell you have a solid protein schedule and you should stick to it. Feel free to email me if you have any further questions. I enjoy answering questions in my field of research.

Whey protein for a sixteen year old???

hi there

i am 16 years of age and am 5 ft 5 iches tall,weighing 55 kilograms. I’m pretty lean and till recently had virtually no muscle on me.But over the last month I’ve been doing a hundred pushups a day, along with pull ups,squats,and crunches and have noticed that my body is getting toned.But now I need some mass in my body. Thing is,I am a vegetarian and hence my diet is limited.Also, I don’t do weights,coz I don’t want my height to get affected.I want to grow to around 5 ft 10 inches at least by the time I’m done with my growth.Now my question is…should I start using whey protein and continue my workout? Will it help me get more muscled? And does whey protein have any side effects like the dehydrating characteristics of Creatine? In short, can i start using whey protein soon along with a good workout? Will it help me get a better body? Thanks for your help.

Answer

Vegatarian?! enough with the nonsense!

If you want to grow then eat grain-fed lean meats like chicken and turkey. Also Beef and lamb are very high in protein. Eggs and fish are an excellent source of protein as well.

Stay away from Soy products as its an incomplete protein and your body does not digest the enzymes effeciently.

Whey will help. Take it AFTER your workouts. There will be no side effects to Creatine unless you are depriving your body of water. Thus you must drink more often than usual.

As for your workouts, you need to stress the muscles differently. Work out with weights (i.e. dumbells, barbells) and keep the reps down, anywhere from 5-10 reps per set for any given exercise. You will gain more muscle mass with low rep, high stress workouts.

There are no studies that confirm any side-effects that you mentioned.

As for ?llison response:

Soy protein IS an INCOMPLETE protein! They lack the sulphur bearing amino acids methionine and cysteine. The high-phytic acid in unfermented and processed soy (found in nearly all soy products) disrupts mineral absorption and can deplete your supply of zinc, magnesium, and calcium.

There is a reason why professional bodybuilders eat animal protein. Hormone injected animal products are obviously not good for several reasons that is why I suggested grain-fed, hormone-free meats.

What is the best vanilla whey protein powder?

I am looking for vanilla whey protein powder, but there is quite a lot of brands.

I would like advice from somebody who is hopefully a weightlifter with experience in taking protein powder to grow muscles.

Thanks.

Answer

Theres no such thing as the best one.

Technically the one with the best protein/carb - total product weight ratio would be the best, however at the beggining if you want to gain weight, I recommend the most cost effective one (best protein/carb - price ratio).

I use EAS which is top shelf, but it costs an arm and a leg.

Who sells the best 100% Whey Protein?

I am looking for a great product which can create lean muscle gain, tastes great and reduces fat. I have heard from friends and doctors that I do not have to spend a fortune either. Any suggestions?

Answer

Whey Protein is ideal for weightlifters, endurance athletes, and people who want to build muscle, because it is a fast-digesting protein that the body uses quickly to build and repair muscle. You’ll want to make sure you’re giving your body the protein it needs to build and rebuild lean muscle tissue. You also need antioxidant protection from harmful free radicals generated by intense and prolonged exercise.

Whey protein helps your body immediately build and rebuild muscle after exercise, while plant-derived digestive enzymes help your body process protein more efficiently. Nutrilite Whey Protein Powder comes in convenient, portable pouches with 25 g of whey protein in each serving.

Nutrilite Protein Shakes help you maintain lean body mass, with 25 grams of satiating protein your body uses to build and rebuild muscle tissue. You’ll also get antioxidant protection from harmful free radicals generated by intense and prolonged exercise, thanks to the exclusive Nutrilite C-Lenium Blend.

Nutrilite Protein Shakes have more protein than the competition, giving you more muscle-building power. Calories are equal to or lower than competitors, plus Nutrilite is the only shake here with no sugar, and no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. The fiber in Nutrilite Protein Shakes is comparable to Myoplex™ Lite, and far exceeds the fiber in CytoSport™ Muscle Milk™. If you’re watching carbs, Nutrilite Protein Shakes have the competition beat there as well. Power up with the right protein shake – made by Nutrilite.

You’ll love the creamy, chocolate fudge, decadent vanilla, and the sweet taste of strawberries and cream and feel confident that what you’re putting into your body contains no artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.

I hope this is helpful.

Btw…Nutrilite is the world’s leading brand of vitamins, minerals, and dietary supplements. Give ‘em a try; you have everything to gain and nothing to lose. Nutrilite products are backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Here is the guarantee…

When is the best time to take whey protein shakes?

Answer

well, i would say the morning. unless you workout at some other time.if you do workout, drink one before then.

Most of these medicines are derived from the essence of flower thus the name. They are usually associated with mental symptom of a patient. There is one medicine called STAR OF BETHELEM. It is a combination of three medicines, It is usually used when a person is very disturbed due to sudden death in the family, seen some accident which is disturbing Ect . It stabilizes a person up to a certain extent. 5 PILLS EVERY ONE HOUR.

At times some medicines work so well with certain individuals that it is unbelievable.

One patient in her early fifties came to us. She used to have severe pain in her abdomen. She was suffering since last 20 years, Her pain started around 2.30 to 4. After the pain started if she passed stool she felt better or it subsided on its own if after 20 to 30 mins. Therefore she came to us doctor had advised her to get the pap test done & even get a sonography done when the pain was there. Since the pain was usually at night she couldn’t get sonography done but she came to us. We gave her some gastric reducing pills and high doze of homoeopathy medicines for 15 days. When she came to us her pain had reduced very much. It now pained very rarely , like once or twice in 1-2 months. She now calls it a miracle.

 

There are some regular patient who come every second week with some problem or the other, usually associated with gastric problem & other is weight problem Time again we have to explain to them to change their life style & eating habits. Once lady comes to us for weight problem but her eating habits were such that she loves to eat paratha & thepla every seconds day (they are laden with oil &ghee) . She could not eat simple food, liked junk food & worse so did not like to exercise much. Such people cannot be cured .The cure is completely in your own hands.

 

One person is in complete contrast to the above person. He was a complete workacholic , busy with his work , so timing of food was not regular but once he was detected with high cholesterol he completely changed his lifestyle. After having a nutritive good breakfast ,has a light lunch packed in box & evening he leaves his office at 6. Even if new clients come they are requested for next day appointment, now since traveling at the same time , he has made a number of friends by travelling in the train. They go home with some new story/humour & when he goes home he is always in good mood. His dinner is at 7.30 -8 pm one hour after his meal he goes for a small walk with his wife. His cholestrol has gone down considerably & now he and his wife both are health conscious.

ANSWER :

HEALTHY TALL YOUNG BODYBUILDERS FITNESS PLAN

Since body fat is lost all over the body proportionately, I have included a short-term plan that develops into a longterm plan until you have achieved your goals, or have decided to continue with this regular excercise program I have created for you.

I recommend getting right into cardio (working the heart muscle), then progressing to bodybuilding and maintaining the nutrition of some of the most elite sportsman in the world to get the weight(excess, unused fat) off extra fast and keep it off.

Having larger muscles also means the muscles will burn more fat while idle, meaning more weightloss/fatloss will come over time and whilst your watching t.v. lazy on the couch.

This plan will achieve both fatloss, strength gains, plus big muscle growth increasing muscle definition and a more youthful look.

It generally takes 1 year to start looking noticeably bigger than the average person when starting bodybuilding, or 2 years to look like a tank for an adult. It may take longer for a younger person.

——————————…

<<<FITNESS PLAN>>>

EXERCISE PLAN

Your exercise plan should be slowly increasing in intensity for the best long term results.

Start your exercise routine with:

A

day 1: Cardio Session (light walking)

day 2: Cardio Session (light walking)

day 3: Cardio Session (light walking)

day 4: Cardio Session (light walking)

day 5:… (continue pattern )

When you start including jogging in you Cardio Sessions then:

B

day 1: Cardio Session (starting to jog)

day 2: day off

day 3: Cardio Session (starting to jog)

day 4: day off

day 5:… (continue pattern )

When your physically able to achieve the Basic Body Building prescription, you can get started right away on this plan.

C

day 1:Cardio Session (light walking only)

day 2: Bodybuilding Session

day 3: Cardio Session (light walking only)

day 4: Bodybuilding Session

day 5:… (continue pattern )

Once you’ve lost the excess fat you don’t want you can continue with regular excercise if you wish to maintain your fabulous figure, and what better way then to continuing your Bodybuilding Sessions and stopping your cardio sessions!

This will be your new plan:

D

day 1: day off

day 2: Bodybuilding Session

day 3: day off

day 4: Bodybuilding Session

day 5:… (continue pattern )

BODYBUILDING SESSION

Sets and reps help us plan our exercises. Reps/repetitions refers to how many times you repeat the exercise without stopping for a rest break. Sets are how many times you do the nonstop reps. In between sets you must have a break.

-Bodybuilding-

= 3+ sets, 12 reps for all exercises in a session

= medium/high intensity

= break between sessions at least 1 day (2+ days if high intensity)

= break in between sets 5 minutes

= total session time about 1 hour

Warm up…

Move anyway you want until you start sweating, your muscles are warm/hot, your arms and legs are loose. Takes 5-10 minutes. For example, running nonstop, shadow boxing. Light stretching optional.

Main workout…

Full body workout, No weights:

a. pushup (chest (tri-cepts,arms))

b. chinups (upperback (bicepts,arms))

c. crunch/situp (stomach/abdominals)

d. squates (legs (lowerback))

Finish up…

Some stretching.

Increase the intensity of the exercises by doing extra sets.

CARDIO SESSION

Start off going on a 1 hour nonstop walk. After time when you’ve adapted to walking, increase the intensity by jogging part of the way. Then go the full 1 hour jogging. Make sure you do this progression slowly and allow at least 1 month before making it considerably more intense.

——————————…

<<<FOOD LIFESTYLE>>>

Diets are for quick fixes and usually end in going back to bad old habits. So changing you food lifestyle to one that is more healthy is essential to ensure you don’t have to worry about what your eating ever again and can get on with the rest of life. To achieve a healthy food lifestyle one must understand and make use of the following information.

Healthy: Low energy, high nutrient foods…

Having a healthy food lifestyle means you eat more nutrient rich foods such as fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts, grains, legumes that are more unprocessed. Healthy meats include fish and beef. Nutrients help the body function properly. Eating healthy foods means that when you get full, you’ll have less excess energy stored as fat compared to eating an unhealthy alternative. Which will aid in weightloss.

Having allot of low energy, high nutrient foods often can result in:

-better body function performance

-reduced risks of getting diseases

-reduced risks of getting heat attacks

-reduced risk of cancer

-nutritional nourishment

-maintaining healthy bodyweight

Unhealthy: High energy, low nutrient foods…

Eat less often high fat/sugar foods such as soft drinks, alcohol, some meats, fried foods, most fast foods, ice cream and potato crisps. Because excess sugar, protein and fat the body doesn’t need gets stored as fat (unused energy).

Having too much high energy, low nutrient foods too often can result in:

-obesity

-diseases

-heart attacks

-cancer

-malnutrition

-poor body function performance

Eating healthy foods and having a healthy food lifestyle means you:

-eat a variety of healthy foods every meal

-drink water often. drink when your lips start to dry up

-are full at breakfast

-eat good lunch

-eat good dinner

-have small nutritious snacks halfway between meals. e.g. apple, grapes. Or as a guide, every 2 hrs 30mins between meals.

-are never feeling stomach pain due to hunger. Eat if you do.

-choosing to eat healthy alternates often

-having some excess body fat is necessary so that your body won’t resort to eating your muscles after it eats whatever in your stomach to get energy for the body’s normal functions.

——————————…

<<<ESSENTIALS>>>

A good plan

Make sure someone who has the qualifications puts a plan together for you.

Proper technique

Make sure you are doing exercises correctly. Doing one incorrectly at the beginning may seem safe. But in the longterm after weeks, months or years it can result in serous injury to put you out of work for a week to months or even longer.

Raise Intensity

Raise the intensity of your exercises slowly, to keep achieving more from your fitness program in the longterm. This can be done by adding more reps/sets/stress/weights/angle for exercises.

Hitting a plateau

If you reach a plateau and increasing the intensity of the bodybuilding sessions reaches its limits, then take a couple weeks off and comeback and start at 75% of the level of the previous plateau (levels may be in number of sets or dumbel weight). Then when you reach your next plateau it will be higher than the previous one. Repeat this for each plateau you experience.

Muscle soreness

You will experience muscle soreness when starting your workouts. Muscles get sore because of the lactic acid that accumulates around the muscles during exercise. Lactic acid is a poison to muscles, but is a necessary sign so that you don’t push your exercise intensity over the limit and injure yourself.

Day after soreness is normal for a worked muscles. But soreness or pain longer than that is a sign that you could be doing damage to your muscles.

You may be working your abs too hard if they are still sore more than 1 day after they were worked, since the body system that creates the lactic acid during a workout usually takes 1 day to regenerate back to normal.

But take into account when working muscles to a new intensity, the effects of initial soreness will be high until your body adapts to the intensity.

Stretch your muscles to squeeze lactic acid out after workouts to reduce soreness.

Rest

Rest is vital to get good responses from exercise and nutrition for fatloss. Rest allows your muscles to grow. Sleep for 8-10 hours a night if possible. Most quality hours are from 9pm-6am. Not getting enough sleep aids fat gain.

Powers of water

Never underestimate the powers of water. People can live longer with only water than food. Drinking at least 1.5ltr of water over a day is necessary to maintain peak performance and remain alert, and increased blood circulation which will help the body recuperate better. This water gaol can be achieved by filling a 1.5ltr water bottle at the start of the day and making sure you have drunk it all by the end of the day.

If your lips are not moist, and becoming dry, it is a sign you aren’t getting enough water.

Dedication

This plan will definitely succeed in the shot-term, but continuing it for longterm and keeping regular excercise up so you can keep your body always in good health and shape, comes down to you and your dedication and a commitment, to continue no matter what.

Goodluck ^^ )

*Important

i. Consult your doctor before starting any nutritional or fitness plan to make sure its safe for you!

ii. Lifting heavy weights (e.g. heavy dumbels/barbels etc) can have a stunting effect on height growth for under 18’s or for those who haven’t reached body maturity (full body development stage).

I would like to start eating healthy, can anyone help with my diet

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to eat healthy. Any links, any advice would be great! Thank you

ANSWER :

Hi Lucy! I started the Atkins diet last week and I have lost four pounds! I haven’t even been working out like I usually do. Basically, I do not ingest any carbs. It is a very easy diet to maintain if you are a meat lover, which I am. It is very simple! You can have any type of meat and any type of cheese and eggs.. you can eat things such as: chicken, beef, lamb, fish, cheese smothered chicken, cheeseburger [without the bun], steak, sandwich meat, omelets, philly cheesesteak [without the bun], etc. I am loving this diet. Yesterday, I had two boiled eggs for breakfast, a huge green pepper, ham, and cheese omelet for lunch, and a swordfish steak for dinner. Here are some sites that provide guidelines and some others with Atkins friendly recipes. The first link is especially helpful. Good luck hunny!

Is it healthy to eat nothing but fruit for one week?

for one week i plan on only fruit.

is this HEALTHY?

its just to kickstart a life of healthy eating. i feel i need to get rid of all the crap ive put into my body from eating takeaway everyday so i want to start FRESH.

also any more information on DETOX?

i want to clean out my body of all the yuck stuff and start over.

i dont want to take pills or use chemicals i just want to do this with natural foods.

any information on natural detoxes?

and also how long should the detox go foR?

i was thinking 7 days…

ANSWER :

Okay. Relax. Take a breath. And throw away your fruit only plan. You need some protein! So you want to clean up your act. That is great! Start by eating a cup of cereal and milk for breakfast. a few hours later (3) eat a fruit. 2 hrs later, eat a light lunch. Try a pb & j sandwich or a few slices of ham and cheese and a fruit. Then a handful of almonds 3 hrs later. then dinner at 630. then if you get hungry around 9 or so a handful of almonds (10-15). Exercise atleast 30 min 3 times a week. Drink lots of water. And as for detox…GREEN TEA is a great antioxidant, cleans you nicely. Blueberries should be your fruit of choice…antioxidants as well. There is a tea they sell that cleans you out (literally) i forgot what it has in it. But it is a detox tea and completely natural (all herbal). Also, eat al ot of fiber. Fiber one cereal is good. Or try grinding flaxseed into foods (1TBSP) 3 times a day. DOn’t buy it already ground because it loses properties. Grind it be
fore eating it. Don’t eat the seeds without grinding b/c your body can’t digest it.

Anyway, to conclude, don’t just eat fruits for a week. It is too much starch for your body and will be counterproductive in weight loss. If you want do veggies instead. atleast they are less starchy.

How can I stick to a healthy diet?

I’m about 5′3” and weight approx 120lbs. It’s not necessarily my weight that i’m concerned about, but my body shape. I’m fine with the way my stomach looks, but my thighs are really getting to me. I exercise fairly often but junk food really gets to me. I feel as though I rarely eat breakfast, lunch, OR dinner.

Vegetarians have a big advantage, in loosing weight, it cost less and they can satisfy the hunger more easily, some vegetables have only a few calories per pound, so they can fill themselves up with it before enjoying each meal, and never go hungry.

Who needs to loose weight?

Answer is simply not every one, only the over weight person.

Who is over weight?

This is simple, it is easy to find out and it is available on line, it is call Body Mass Index, and calculations are simple. According to this calculation if you find your self say only 10 pounds more, you may not be over weight. Remember every one is slightly different and you can just watch it, on your own and not let it get out of hand.

What is the reason for being over weight?

This is also simple, have doctor check you out for any physical or hormonal abnormalities. The doctor should be advising you of your ideal weight even though you have already figured out the ideal weight and you are seen a doctor because your weight is not where it should be according to BMI.

Basic understanding of loosing weight.

Every one uses calories at all time. There may be some exceptions to this rule, for most of us; the rate of use, even when we are resting, we use 65 calories per hour minimum. This comes to1560 calories per day. The actual range is between 65 and 100 calories per hour. This is consistent with heart rate of 60 to 80 bits per minute.

Simply put any person eating only say 1500 calories a day, and moderately active, will not put on any additional weight. At this level of calories consumption the person should loose some weight over long haul, depending on the individual rate of metabolism.

What is a healthy weight loss?

How much is one pound of body fat?

One pound of body fat weight is approximately same as one pound of butter. If you look at a one pound package of butter, you will see it contains between 3200 to 3600 calories.

How many pounds should a person loose in a month?

Any one that is trying to trim down can figure out how long it took to put on the excess pounds. The fact is; it did not happen over night. It usually creeps up, but the person realizes one day suddenly.

This is why a person should not be in a hurry to loose weight. The person should start at once but go slowly. Do not wait for New Year.

Taking above in to consideration a person should not loose more then 2 pounds per month. If a person looses any thing more then that, chances are that the person will not be able to maintain the weight loss. It will take extra efforts to loose and it will take extra efforts to keep it off. Remember slow and steady wins the race.

When an overweight person should start loosing weight?

At once. The person should not be in a hurry to loose weight. The person should start at once but go slowly. Again do not wait for New Year.

How does body react to weight lose?

Any time there is depletion of fat beyond certain level, the body reacts by slowing down metabolism, so that it can build up fat. If the body is use to say 2000 calories per day and detects only 1500 calories per day for considerable length of time it reacts to the situation by reducing the rate of metabolism. When this happens one need to help body by increasing activity. Usually takes about four weeks for body to react.

What is the relationship between body and body fat?

Calories should be accounted for all other liquids.

Eat

What should be your proportionate in take of fat, Proteins and Complex Carbohydrates?

This depends on what your need are.

1. Need to reduce fat.

Fat: 10 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 150 calories.

Complex Carbohydrates: 30 percent of 1500 calories per day = 450 calories.

Proteins: 60 percent of 1500 calories per day = 900 calories.

2. Need more energy.

Fat: 10 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 150 calories.

Complex Carbohydrates: 40 percent of 1500 calories per day = 450 calories.

Proteins: 50 percent of 1500 calories per day = 750 calories.

3. Need to reduce weight only.

Fat: 25 percent of 1500 calorie per day = 375 calories.

Complex Carbohydrates: 25 percent of 1500 calories per day = 375 calories.

Proteins: 50 percent of 1500 calories per day = 750 calories.

4. Need to increase muscles bulk, but still reduce weight.

Exercise the muscles you want to develop, you can find right exercise on line, recommend use of light weights.

Eat

In western culture. Standard healthy practice for long time was three warm square meals per day. No eating in between, but children were allowed night cap.

Another best practice will be a glass of water before bed time, nothing to eat for two hours before bed time.

Weight watchers or low carb diet best for losing a stone?

I want to loose a stone in the next month. which way is best?

ANSWER :

Losing a stone in a month is difficult and - some would say - not very healthy, although it depends on how much you weigh to begin with. Half a stone is a more realistic goal - and if you exercise and tone up at the same time, losing half a stone can make a big difference to your appearance.

Weightwatchers promises that if you follow its diet, you will be able to lose 1-2 pounds a week (in your first month, if you exercise, 2 pounds a week is quite normal - you might even lose 3 or more in the first week).

I know people who have lost weight more quickly with low carb or other food-restricting diets, but they are hard to stick to because you are cutting out things you crave for - so for anyone with normal or below-average willpower Weightwatchers is a much easier way to lose weight over the medium to long term.

Exercise also makes a massive difference. I’ve been doing spinning 2-3 times a week and circuit training 1-2 times a week, and they are both fantastic for burning calories and shaping up.

How can i reduce in a healthy diet .?please recommend a diet.?

ANSWER :

Do you excercise a lot? A little? You probably need 2,000 calories. If you go to www.thedailyplate.com , they can show you how many calories you need based on your goal.

For example, if you have very little excercise, are a female, and want to lose 3 pounds a week, they will calculate how many calories you can have each day to lose your goal (3 pounds a week in this example.)

As for any diet, just drink lots of water. Sometimes when you feel like you’re hungry, it’s actually a thirst pain, so you should drink a glass or two of water. No diet is as good as just eating healthy. If you shave off 200-300 calories a day of what you “need”, then you lose 2 pounds a week.

As the rate of heart attacks and cardio vascular diseases is increasing day by day all round the world, people should really start taking care of their health and fitness. Due to the consciousness of the people to stay fit and gain a very good posture has increased the business of various gyms; spas etc all round the globe. Therefore to meet the needs and requirements of the people to get a sexy physique has lead to establishment of many new gyms or fitness centers. Also the market of various fitness products or weight loss programs have gained momentum and now you may find lots of advertisements related to these products on televisions and other modes of communication. Those people who are looking for a sexy physique should know that only exercise is not enough to gain it but also consuming proper food or food which is good for health is also very important. Therefore it is very important to maintain diet fitness as it provides various nutrients which are required for the proper growth of the human body. Therefore people should consult their dieticians to know about the food which can help them to stay healthy. High carb diets and high fat diets are two diet programs which are being made by various health experts of dieticians.

Understanding the difference between the high carb diet and high fat diets is very important for the people. Food which is rich in carbohydrates is involved in the high carb diet program whereas food rich in fats is involved in high fat diet program. High carb diet enhances the levels of glycogen in the body which is very helpful component to provide energy to the body whereas on the other hand high fat diets is considered to be one of the richest source providing calories to the body. Therefore people should take proper consultation on which of the health programs will work for them depending on their health and body.

NV weight loss pills and side effects.?

I started taking NV weight loss pills three days ago. Several hours after taking the first pill (recommended on an empty stomach) I started feeling nauseous. I’ve been that way for 3 days now. Has anyone taken this pill and had any side effects? Wondered if perhaps my body just needed to get accustomed to the pill. I also tried Smart Burn with Hoodia - no side effects but the pills are HUGE and too hard to swallow.

Answer

Hi

You shouldn’t be taking any pills to reach your goals.

All pills will make you have a lot of side effects. While taking them, you feel horrible.

A better way for you would be to do excercises or jogging.

I wish you all the best

Cheers,

Weight Loss Tips? WITHOUT Extreme Dieting OR Pills?!?

I want to shed a few pounds, like, 10 to 20. Any tips? I need to do this NOW! I have like, about 2 weeks at the most.

Answer

Running and stretching is crucial to some great weight loss. 20 minutes running in the morning is a good starter to your day and is fast and easy. Eat foods that have a lot of water in them (fruits, veggies, broth-based soups, etc.) and drink a lot of water (stay away from liquids with calories). Stretching before bed and when you wake up helps too.

Best weight loss and muscle gain supplement?

Is there a supplement that I can gain muscle and lose weight, without stacking

Answer

In short, No.

It’s extremely hard (if not impossible) to lose weight and gain muscle at the same time. You can, however, lose fat and maintain your muscle mass. This is done by combining a low-calorie, low-sugar (low glycemic-index) diet and a cardio routine with your normal lifting routine.

Body builders go through cycles that consist of a few months of “bulking” and a few months of “cutting”. They do this because If the try to do both at the same time, one of them has to give.

When you’re trying to “cut”, or lose excess body fat, your lifestyle (diet and cardio) should be one that does not promote significant muscle gain.

My advice would be to do it the right way. Go through a bulking stage where you consume enough calories for your muscles to take full advantage of your workouts. Then, when you’re built up, go through a “cutting” phase where you cut down on the calories and try to remove sugar from your diet (only consuming complex carbohydrates, “good” fats, and plenty of protein as always).

Good luck my man.

Does anyone know if the Acai Berry Pills REALLY work for weight loss?

I have read a few different things about this and everyone is saying how great it is for just about everything. However, I know how “great” things can sound when they are trying to be sold, so I was just wondering if anyone (not interested in making a sale) has tried this. If so what were the results? Honestly, is it worth the money?

Answer

Does Acai REALLY work for weight loss? The simple answer is yes. The complex answer is that acai will help you lose weight faster as long as you are eating right and exercising a bit. Let me explain…

First let me say that acai berries have far more antioxidants than any other fruit. Even more than blueberries! Besides that, the nutrients in acai berry supplements help many other diseases and maladies, from diabetes to arthritis to blood clotting. It really is a worthwhile supplement to add to your daily nutrition.

As far as the acai berry assisting with fat loss, acai can be a great weight loss aid. The berry’s natural concoction of essential fatty acids, fiber, phytosterols and amino acids work together to help your body burn fat more efficiently, process food more quickly and shed the unwanted pounds that you’d like to lose.

The fatty acids and amino acids aid in both muscle development and proper digestion, both of which are essential to fat loss. The fiber helps your body to move food out of your system quicker and also to help you feel full, as do fatty acids. Phytosterols help fortify your digestive tract, moving waste materials out and absorbing nutrients more efficiently.

I wouldn’t say that acai berries are the magic weight loss pill, but I would say that acai could be an important ingredient in your vitamin / supplement / weight loss arsenal. You should also exercise at least 3 times a week and stay away from junk food. Good luck!

What I recommend is to get a free trial of Extreme Acai, which you can get at the source link below. Then you should follow some of the other links on that site to find a sensible diet and a moderate exercise plan. Try to eat fewer carbs at night, and fewer calories over all if you think you can’t lose weight. Exercise at least 3 days a week. Give it 1 month and you should be able to lose 5-10 lbs easy.

So far using acai is working for me by helping my digestion, curbing my appetite, and by giving me more energy each day… I don’t even get sleepy around 3pm anymore. I’m going to keep using acai until a better antioxidant / weight loss supplement hits the market, if ever.

Has anyone tried weight loss supplement to help lose weight - Lipo-6, Hydroxy Cut, Alli etc?

Answer

i tried “Metabolife” pills about 5 years ago and i lost 30 pounds…but when i stopped the weight came right back and the pills had really bad side effects like rapid heartbeat and severe loss of appetite so 2 years ago i decided to try the Slimfast diet plan along with exercising 5 days a week i lost 50 pounds (which got me to my goal weight) and i kept it off for 2 years (until i got pregnant LOL) using diet pills is always a bad idea (most of them do not even work unless they have some type of ephedrine or Hoodia in them) the best way to lose weight is through diet and exercise…i hope this helps!!!

Weight Loss Supplements Notes

It is very important to stay healthy in our everyday lives. We need to keep track on our diet and make sure that we balance it in a right manner. We need to remember that becoming overweight could give rise to serious health issues in the future. Over weight people face many problems both mentally and physically.

There have been lots of controversies on Nutrition Notes on Weight Loss Supplements. The food and drug administration has banned the illegal products which are harmful to our health. However, there are lots of products that you will find in the market, which promises you to help with your weight loss program. There are possibilities that these products can give you side effects like heart and digestive problems, headaches, insomnia, and even psychological disorder.

The supplement manufacturers use chemical that claim to absorb carbohydrates but the research has not shown any results which can be termed as satisfactory. Chitosan is one such product which has failed drastically as Weight Loss Supplement. The food supplement manufacturers have also tried to make products which make you lose your hunger or appetite. What it means is that it decreases your appetite and makes you mentally feel not hungry. This product is known as Guar Gum, which again has failed to help you with the weight loss but it helps in controlling sugar and blood cholesterol.

There is another product in the market which is very appealing to the people and it is called cutting gel. It is one of the latest Weight Loss Supplement products. All you need to do is to apply this gel over the part of your body from where you want to remove the body fat. It is quite popular in the market these days.

It is advisable to lose weight in a natural manner and that would involve physical exercise and maintaining a balance diet.

Stomach ulcers?

ANSWER :

Hi Casey K, signs of a stomach ulcer can include nausea, loss of appetite, abdominal pain just beneath the ribcage, indigestion, vomiting, symptoms of anemia, weight loss, and blood present in vomit or bowel movements.

If you experience these symptoms for any length of time, it is important to seek medical attention. These are not symptoms to be ignored.

Stomach ulcers occur when there is a break in the tissue lining of the stomach. These ulcers normally occur in the stomach or the first part of the small intestine that leads out of the stomach, called the duodenum.

Treatment options for stomach ulcers can consist of over the counter medications, prescription medications, modifying your diet, perhaps a lifestyle change that includes the addition of exercise and reduction of stress, and as a last result, surgery.

The vitamin c has to the best-known vitamin these days. It is not surprising, because the body needs for vitamin c more than 300 functions. In fact, the vitamin c is proven to help protect against cardiovascular diseases, cancer and other serious diseases. Without the vitamin c the body would be unable to heal itself. This is because the c-vitamin is essential for the formation of collagen. When a person makes a cut or an injury is the collagen that helps to repair the damage and without adequate vitamin c, this would almost impossible. Collagen is a multitude of functions in the body, including the keeping of the organs in place, and it would not be able to do so without adequate vitamin c .

The vitamin c is also an antioxidant to the body and helps other vitamins and minerals to be better absorbed. Folic acid and iron, for example, the vitamin c to maximize their usefulness. The more vitamin c that the body has, the better his defense against colds and other diseases and vitamin c can not prevent a person catching a virus, but it helps accelerate the recovery process.

There is vitamin c in almost all fruit and vegetables, but some have much higher levels of vitamin c than others. Cranberries and melons have a high vitamin c content. In fact, tropical fruits have the highest amounts of vitamin c all fruit. S Hot peppers are among the richest sources of vitamin c when it comes to vegetables. The hotter the pepper, the higher the vitamin c content. Unfortunately, the c-vitamin is water soluble so many vegetables lose their effectiveness as ac vitamin if they cooked for a long time. Steamed or quick stir frying vegetables ensures that more of their vitamin c content is preserved. The recommended daily allowance of vitamin c is easily obtained from eating five servings of fruits and vegetables per day as they are consumed raw or cooked quickly .

vitamin C supplements are extremely useful to ensure that people get enough vitamin c. However, with a balanced diet, the amount of vitamin c receive the body, is probably enough. But if someone starts tiredness or lethargy than ac vitamin supplement will help overcome. There is no danger that too much vitamin c as the body simply excretes the excess.

I like to avoid taking pills as much as i can.. pls help..

thanks..

Answer :

Glutathione sold on the store shelves is mostly excreted out of your body and ends up not giving your body the intended effects. The molecule itself is too big to enter the cell. I have found a product call MaxGXL. The first ingredient is vitamin C

For proper body functioning & staying healthy, Max GXL is a must. Max GXL helps your body naturally produce an adequate supply of Glutathione which protects you from harmful affects of stress & over exertion, and is critical to optimal brain function. So if you are tired, overworked, aging or having other related problems, you need MAX GXL. It’s basically a Glutathione accelerator which will naturally increase your energy, detoxify your body and improve your immune system.

Max GXL is formulated to strengthen your immune system, and provide optimal health, greater energy, and enhanced athletic performance. It provides proper nutrients that develops & absorbs glutathione. Max GXL will detoxify your liver & thus help the liver to function as the main production site and storehouse for glutathione.

For more information send me an email or call me and I will send you the ingredient list.

Best Regards

Should people EAT or NOT eat oranges, vitamin c, chicken, chicken soup & spicy stuff when they’re sick?

I keep getting different stories.

Answer :

It’s best to eat light: broth(not soup), crackers, dry toast, plain white rice, diluted juice.

I find a cold goes away quicker if I fast for a day, and just have water or a little diluted juice.

“Feed a cold, starve a fever” is actually a misquote. It’s actually “If you feed a cold, you’ll have to starve a fever.”

Does anyone know anything about bone cancer? How about vitamin c injections to treat cancer?

Answer :

Bone cancer (its actual medical name is bone tumor, there is no such thing as bone cancer, but that is totally irrelevant) is a serious matter but luckily it does not cause a high death rate. If the cancer can be caught early it can be treated with chemo but we many of us know that chemo is not always 100%. Chemo therapy is different with each type of bone cancer, Ewing’s Sarcoma shows to be terminated easily by chemo but others like chondrosarcoma are not as great. If the cancer is caught late then amputation will have to be a last resort. amputation will stop the cancer in its tracks but amputation is extremely hard to deal with. As for the vitamin C, i honestly do not see that woeking whatsoever. Linus Pauling, the only person to win two nobel prizes, strongy believed in high doses of vitamin C and that they will help him live longer and stronger but research on his brain and bones proved that he was no more immune to any disease or cancer than if he didn’t take the vitamin
C. Personally I feel that high doses of Calcium will be good as well as Cod liver oil might help. U should also consider stem cell…. If it falls within your beliefs.

If calcium inhibits the absorbtion of Vitamin C, what is the best way to take it?

Well milk is one way to get calcium…… (i never know calcium inhibits the absorption of vit. C so may be you should do em’ separately

Best liquid Vitamin C for guinea pigs?

I have 3 male piggies. Two of them chew the Oxbow Vit C tablets with no problems. The other one will only take it once in a great while. I know he should take it daily but he doesn’t. They are very picky and don’t eat all the fruit and vegtables that most pigs do. I tried a small slice of orange and I thought they were going to chew the bars off the cage trying to get away from it! My question is, what is the best liquid vitamin C product out there for guinea pigs? A lot of those vitamins you buy in the pet stores have so many other ingredients in them that I wonder if they need all that extra stuff!? I don’t care how much it costs. I just want the best! I feed them Oxbow pellets with romaine lettuce, carrots, celery, bananas, apples, and lots of Oxbow hay. I do offer lots of other things, but they are usually rejected. Can they get too much vitamin C? I was told that any extra will get “eliminated.”

Thanks for the help!

Answer :

Well, you certainly did your homework! I can tell you really love the little guys.

Guinea pigs know what (and how much) to eat to keep themselves healthy. They will instinctively eat what they need.

If you buy good quality GP food, you don’t need to supplement it, it’s already in there.

Don’t worry about it, they are fine. You are feeding them exactly what they need.
