Hey, listen up! You don’t have to suffer to be healthy. You don’t have to deprive yourself. You don’t have to kills yourself to lose weight. You don’t have to take Phen375 diet pills. You can eat and be healthy while enjoying life! Here are some great food ideas that are delicious.
Fish, particularly the oily fishes such as sardines, herring, tuna and salmon, served at least twice a week, add variety to the menu and elasticity to the coronary arteries. Cheese does not have to be abandoned, but cheddar or stilton, traditional as they are, should be reserved for more occasional use. Instead, rather surprisingly, brie and the cottage cheeses, which are better for cholesterol levels, may be eaten instead.
The ideal is to have a helping of five different vegetables or fruit daily. Sprouts, spinach, broccoli, peas and beans are as good for you as nanny insisted. Carrots, peppers and tomatoes are rich in carotinoids and other flavinoids, as well as anti-oxidants, which are thought to preserve the health of the lining of the coronary arteries, thus preventing the deposition of atheroma and lowering the blood pressure.
Vegetables contain a wide mix of anti-oxidants, which accounts for the dietician's belief that eating the natural product is more effective than taking a pill (which usually contains only one). Lettuce, however, may add colour to a salad but is almost totally devoid of any food value.
Alcohol, which has a cardio-protective effect, is good for both men and women in reasonable quantities. Beer, white wine and even spirits are beneficial in small amounts, but red wines are even better. Red wine, because the skins of the grapes used in its making contain phenolic substances, which are anti-oxidant, is about three times as cardio-protective as other forms of alcohol.
Alcohol helps to prevent the formation of blood clots and increases the proportion of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, which is cardio-protective, to the more pernicious low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The maximum benefit is achieved if two to four drinks a day are taken, preferably with meals. Any advantage over tee-totallers is lost once the intake exceeds six drinks a day.
Obesity is associated with diabetes, hypertension, heart attacks and heart failure. Obesity is particularly dangerous to the cardiovascular system when the excess weight is at the mid-line, when the patient has a protuberant belly and chest but spindly limbs. People with legs like tree-trunks and arms like a wrestler's, and a thorax and abdomen to match, tend to have less heart disease. Patients look rather surprised when their doctor acts like a tailor, produces a tape measure, and compares the girth of their abdomen with their hips. The waist should measure less than the hips.
In order to help their heart, the aim of all those who are overweight should be to lose 2lb a week, regularly and steadily, until the ideal weight is achieved. There are many ways to do this, such as walking, swimming, and following a yoga program like the Yoga Burn program. Losing weight too quickly may alter the body's metabolism, so that any future weight loss is more difficult, and weight gain once the diet is abandoned, too easy.
