Best extreme diets out there,do they work?

Im wanting to go on a diet, and my friend recently did the cambridge diet and she lost a lot of weight doing it. But I was wondering if there were any other diets out there that are similar, and if so has anyone tried them? I want to lose weight fast so I can get the breast reduction I so desperatley need. I know exercise plays a big part and I understand that, so any tips would be great, but I need exercise that doesn’t hurt my boobs.

Thank you

xoxo

Answer

In the first place, you don’t want to lose weight quickly, that messes up your bodily functions and can become dangerous. All you have to do is eat less, some say that if you eat a little every three or fours hours is better than three full meals, especially anyone that is a diabetic. Watch your fat and calorie intake, stay away from high sugar levels, drink plenty of water and instead of a running exercise, make it a fast pace walk. Just remember this, if it tastes really good and sweet, it’s no good for you. Eat more baked chicken and fish, stay away from reg. Coke or Pepsi an especially Mountain Dew, eat vegetables and salads with light dressings or vinegar and oil. Snack at night on fruit and drink more water, or a cup of green tea or decaffeinated tea sweetened with a sugar substitute. Drink skim Milk and put it on a cereal like Special K. When I was doing this, I would diet and exercise Monday thru Saturday. Sunday I would eat normal, but still walked, then Monday, back o
n my diet food. A fast pace walk is all the exercise you need, and ride a stationary bike some. Once you lose your weight, you’ll need to do some sit ups and small weight lifting, and just some basic exercise to firm up where you lost the weight. Wish for you the very best luck young lady.

Which is the best fitness dvd to buy?

im having to cancel my gym membership coz i cant afford it anymore

i want to stay fit so which fitness dvd should i buy?

i like dance workouts and things that are similar.

ive tried the davina dvd and just found her annoying.

Answer

The P90X its a 90 day challenge , ow its perfect , check it out i have one actually and my mom and i partake in it . It has two dvds but u must follow them in a certain order , from

1 dvd. intro tape , back and chest, plometrics ( to rasie your heart rate ) , shoulders and arms , yoga , legs and back , kenpo ( like kick boxing )

2. dvd Back and Biceps , Cardio X , X Stretch , Chest, Shoulders and Triceps .

Its a great challenge if you are willing to take it on and have that willpower and not lazy or get to tired. All you need to do though is make you also get your own mat , weights , plates, and stuff u will need in some of the workouts are a chair , water , mat etc .

But its not really with dance , and u dont have to follow the 90 day thing if u dont want , u can just do your own routine if u want

Gym in st thomas?

what is the most convinient option for gym membership for someone who lives works and plays in the west side of st thomas?

paradise fitness is gone

Answer

There’s a new gym called Extreme Fitness.

All about P90x and Tony Horton’s 10-minute Trainer!!!!!?

Is P90x worth the money or is it something that is to hard so you just throw it in the corner and forget about it? Also how long do the exercises last and how fast do you see results, are you on a strict diet or anything? Is it for people who need to lose about 20 pounds and get in shape like me?

I also saw tony horton’s 10 minute trainer (same guy) and was wondering if that worked the same, does it take longer to lose weight and see results, which one would be better?

Also I would like to lose the 20 pounds and get in shape in about 3 months. Thank you!

Answer

P90x is difficult, but exercising and weight lose is, period.

M - Chest & Back - you need a chinup bar, DB’s and/or tubing. You will be doing a ton of pushups and various pullups.

W - Should/Bis/Tris - again you need DB’s and/or tubing

F - Back and Legs - more pullups and DB’s

M/W/F you do ab video - 16 minutes.

All the weight workouts are under 1 hour

T - Plyometrics (jump training) 1 hour

Th - Yoga 1hr 30 minutes

Sat - kickbowing

Sun - rest or stretch

4 weeks and then you change it up.

There is a diet program and you will see results in 2 weeks if you put forth the effort.

It will cost about $130 without the chinup bar or other assoccories.

Good luck, I loved it!

I am having nasty chest pains and can’t breathe properly… and I am only 20! Please help!?

I am only 20 years old. I am having chest pains quite frequently and at night and also heart pains. I have veru shallow breathing and ifind it hard to breathe especially before I fall asleep. I am VERY fit- I exercise daily and combine running, kick boxing, cycling and weight training. In morning I have a phlem build up from my chest in which I spit out lots of thick phlem off my chest and occasionally have a small bit of blood.Last year my friend woke me as I had chest pains and couldn’t breathe well and while asleep she heard my breathing stop. When I woke I couldn’t move I was in so much chest pain and was sat on floor with head between my kness before ambulance arrived. They said it was nothing and I thought they were useless as it clearly IS something. Even my kick boxing partner noticed I ‘don’t breathe’ while exercising’ its not that I dont more so that I breathe so so shallow. Please help!

Answer

They said it was nothing? WTF kind of people are working there?! You need to go to your doctor or to the ER. Demand that they find out what is really wrong with you.

How do I get abs and get rid of love handles/obliques? What workouts are best?

I know I have to lower body fat. I eat 5-6 small meals a day. I do 3 days of strength training and 3 days of 20 min cardio workouts. I also do ab workouts on the 3 days of strength training and 8 minute abs (youtube) on my cardio days. What can I do to eliminate my obliques/love handles and reveal my abs? Any info would help. I’ve went from 211 to 197 in the past 8 weeks.

Answer

Keep at it and vary your workouts.

Variety of exercise is the key I have found. For example..an exercise called Mountain Climbers.

Mountain climbers are done by starting in a pushup position

and then shuffling your feet in and out so that your knees are

moving in under your chest and then back out to starting

position. It sort of resembles climbing a mountain but flat on

the floor. If you want an advanced version, you can also shuffle your hands 8-10 inches forward and backward in

addition to the leg movements. This really makes it a full

body exercise and MUCH more difficult than standard mountain climbers.

After finishing each exercise, rest about 30 seconds before

starting the next exercise. Rest about 1-2 minutes after

completing each “tri-set” before repeating.

This will give you one of the best ab workouts you’ve ever had

without even doing any direct ab exercises. You’ll see what I

mean after you try it!

Once you get away from the myth that a 1000 crunches and 500 situps a day is all you need to do for great abs, then amazing results can be seen.

There is a completely free 65 page ebook about exercise, nutrition, abs and stomaches in particular at http://www.projext.co.uk that you can download (no catch!) and it is excellent.

It helped me greatly.

24/7 gym membership price?

what is the normal 1-month cost for a membership….and can you buy them just one month at a time?

Answer

Mines $50 per month at my local Gold’s Gym, a little steeper then the others but worth it. I use to attend planet fitness and it was super cheap ($10 a month) but the place was so packed i had to wait to use machines and what not. So where ever you decide to go definitely look into it. Good Luck!

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. All I eat is snacks pretty much all day long and most of the time they’re not very healthy. (chips, cookies, etc.) Out of pure luck, I hate soda so I usually drink green tea or water.

How can I begin to follow a more healthy diet?

ANSWER :

IDK how but if you set a goal and a prize for your self if you reach that goal it should help a bit.

Tips for Loosing Weight

By

minootoo

You must count calories and at least in initial stages write down what you are going to eat and when then stay on that list. Your total calories for the week must not exceed, 1500 x 7 = 10,500 calories this will give you leave way to indulge at special occasions like wedding and parties, but you must write down what you eat and account for the calories latter and adjust the total intake next week.

Please read my article on this subject and follow them.

While at it build your body too, while reducing by doing body parts specific exercises.

If you are not too old, then best way to reduce your weight is to increase your height.

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.

Most people should take one a day water soluble multi-vitamins when on this program; they can be purchased at the pharmacy near you.

Life Style Change Program for Loosing Weight

By

minootoo

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?

When one tries to loose weight, one should loose excess fat; there should be a healthy loss of weight. Loosing muscles tissue is unhealthy.

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. This means that each time a person burns 3600 more calories then what the person takes in, the person will loose one pound.

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?

Under ideal condition fat act as a reserved energy source for our body. Certain level of fat is good for healthy living and even may save our life in certain life threatening situations. Every one should have minimum required level of fat on their body.

What if there is no weight loss at 1500 calories in take level?

This is a rear occurrence. Do not panic. The body has slowed down the metabolism to such a great extent that you must help it. The only way to help is to increase activities, this means you have to exercise. You do not need to join Gym but you can go on an an half an hour walk every day or batter still engage in a power walk for same duration. Power walk burns 250 calories per mile and walk burns 100 calories per mile approximately.

What is the importance of body fat for a female?

Females require little more body fat then men. In the absence of certain required level of body fat, females are not able to function properly; in particular they may not be able to conceive. You can find lot more about this on internet.

At 1500 calories intake per day what one must drink and eat?

Drink

One gallon of liquids most of witch should be in the form of water (zero calories).

Calories should be accounted for all other liquids.

Why water?

Water is a universal solvent, means it dissolves almost every thing at least in very minute quantities. This helps purification of body.

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.

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

Complex Carbohydrates: 15 percent of 1500 calories per day = 225 calories.

Proteins: 75 percent of 1500 calories per day = 1125 calories.

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

Foot note: To take fat is so important, while reducing even fat, that it is included in all cases. If the fat is completely cut out, body will think of producing the fat, and will produce the fat by reducing metabolism, without fat in take, you may actually again weight even at lower than 1500 calorie level. You will feel run down and lethargic.

How one must, drink and eat?

Drink

Every one may not be able to follow this regime.

A 16 oz glass of water first thing in the morning will be very healthy start.

If you need to stabilize your stomach before eating, you can have a glass of water just before each and every meal. This is the easiest way to meet your quota of gallon of liquids.

Eat

To day almost half the world is starving.

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.

All that has changed, present thinking is 5 to 6 times per day. Any way what practice one follows is up to them; to each his own.

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.

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.

Is high blood pressure one of the reasons for high cholesterol?

Answer :

Hypertension is sustained elevation of resting systolic BP (= 140 mm Hg), diastolic BP (= 90 mm Hg), or both. Hypertension with no known cause (primary; formerly, essential hypertension) is most common. Hypertension with an identified cause (secondary hypertension) is usually due to a renal disorder. Usually, no symptoms develop unless hypertension is severe or long-standing. Diagnosis is by sphygmomanometry. Tests may be done to determine cause, assess damage, and identify other cardiovascular risk factors. Treatment involves lifestyle changes and drugs, including diuretics, ß - blockers, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, and Ca channel blockers.

Dyslipidemia is elevation of plasma cholesterol and/or TGs or a low HDL level that contributes to the development of atherosclerosis. Causes may be primary (genetic) or secondary. Diagnosis is by measuring plasma levels of total cholesterol, TGs, and individual lipoproteins. Treatment is dietary changes, exercise, and lipid-lowering drugs.

I know that high cholesterol can be due to hereditary but does that mean some people have to take medicine?

I understand that high cholesterol is part diet and exercise and part hereditary. I also know about the bad side effects of taking high cholesterol medicine. My questions is should I trust my doctor about taking these medcines or are there alternatives he is not telling me. Please give me your thoughts about this I’m open to alternative medicine ideas as well.

Answer :

If you are not a diabetic, try taking niacin to lower cholesterol. My ex-husbands triglycerides were over 1400. His doctor told him to get the non flush 500 mg niacin. It’s cheap and you can get it at Walmart. He had to take one capsule in the morning and one at night. In three months all of his cholesterol readings were normal. Now he takes one capsule a day. I know a lot of people that take niacin to lower cholesterol and control it. If you are diabetic, you can’t take it because it raises the blood sugar too much.

High Cholesterol?

I had really high cholesterol since ever and I’m in my late 20s. Doctors have been telling me eat healthy and workout. I am really healthy and I workout a lot. I am not overweight. I went on medicine, didn;t lower it much. when I stopped it went back up. they did an ekg test and they say my heart is fine. Now that I’m in my late 20s I want to make sure I become healthy someday and no potential heart diseases. But doctors down want to find the problem, all they want to do is push drugs that don’t work. Any idea what would cause my high cholesterol and not effect my heart. Last reading was not bad at 270, but that is still really high for my weight and age.

Answer :

It is very tough to have young patients with high cholesterol. Doctors hate to put you on cholesterol lowering meds because you’d have to be on them for rest of your life.

It is too early, on the other hand, to run any kind of test on you to see if you have any issues, since you’re too young and will likely pass all of them.

Never the less, your cholesterol has to be controlled for the time being and there is no other good way than drugs. If one doesn’t work, another has to be tried until they can manage your levels.

If you have family history of heart disease, then running test such as a heart scan with a CT scanner may be warranted. If you don’t have any calcium deposits in your coronary arteries, your doctor can go easy on the meds and try to control it with special diets.

What foods are good to eat if you have high Cholesterol and want to lower it?

give me list of good foods to eat for dinner,breakfeast,snacks,lunch…….. thankyou

Answer :

Take supplements: Flaxseed oil, flaxseed meal, fish oil, calcium, garlic oil, and B complex. These make a huge difference.

As far as foods: garlic & onions, oatmeal and other whole grains. Avoid high fructose corn syrup like the plague, you have to check labels because it’s in everything. Also try to avoid white sugar and flour, eat plenty of veggies. Fruits and veggies that contain a lot of fiber are great, i.e. carrots, apples, broccoli, berries. If you eat pasta make it whole grain pasta.

If you are on a statin drug like Lipitor be sure you take Coenzyme Q10 (50 mg/day) and Milk Thistle because it depletes your CoQ10 and does a number on your liver. (Milk Thistle promotes liver health.)

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.

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?

I realized when I was eating an orange my Calcium suppliment I just took would block the C from the orange.

Answer :

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.

Many people today are much more aware of their own health and fitness. In addition, these people, and many others, are now with that desire to sculpt their bodies to ahieve that magazine-cover look. As a result, gyms, spas and other health fitness centers have proliferated across to meet the needs of the fitness buffs and lovers .

Even on the television fitness equipment, weight loss products and other paraphernalia to improve fitness have more or less gained control over the airwaves and their way into the households. But exerise is not the only way to that body beautiful. It also means that part of the responsibility of the food choice to eat. Because the healthy and fit doing a diet also requires fitness.

Diet fitness is just as essential as exercise itself. Diet for fitness gives the food an essential needs to restore worn-out muscles and a healthy growth. Diet fitness should never be taken for granted. With the popularity of keeping fit, many different views, methods, programs and diet strategies have been formulated by many professionals. These include high-carbohydrate diets and high fat diets. Whih a more effective and which one must choose to follow?

The first thing to know would be the fundamental differences between these two approaches diet. As the name indicates, high-carbohydrate diet focuses on taking carbohydrate-rich foods, while high-fat diets endorses fat-rich foods. High-carbohydrate diets have been used to glycogen stored in the liver and muscles. Glycogeen is a complex glucose that large amounts of energy ready for use in anaerobic exercises .

Fats, on the other hand, accounts for nown is the richest source of calories. It actually contains 2.5 times more calories than carbohydrates and proteins at each other. Studies also show that the body 24 calories to metabolize carbohydrates, while only 3 to burn down fat. So which one to follow? A person can follow a high carbohydrate and low fat diet fitness or vice versa. It is absolutely not advisable to both simultaneously, unless of course if you want to gain body fat.

But then diet fitness is not all about the loss of fat, one must also take account of their diet, so bold way. Research shows that sustainable loss of weight can only be reached on a diet that suits the individual food preferences, lifestyle, medical profile and satiety signals.
