Weight Loss and Cutting Out Processed Foods

Processed foods are everywhere. Adam Smith covered this in economics with the division of labour, which is what we've taken to extremes nowadays. Which includes the way our food is made and prepared.
Some of our food is produced fairly close to the way our ancestors would have made it, albeit in larger quantities. Bread - apart from some of the extra additives - has been made roughly the same way since Roman times, probably earlier. But even then, the varieties of flour have changed to allow more intensive farming.
But that's splitting hairs.
The real issue is food that our ancestors wouldn't recognise. Which means that our bodies aren't adapted to it either.
The more processed our food is, the more difficulty we have in digesting it. Which can lead to knock on effects on our weight.
10 Minute Workout

It's not easy to escape all processing but it is possible to reduce it quite a bit.
The quickest way to ensure that your food is to do as much of your own cooking as possible.
Years ago, you'd have either churned your own butter or bought it from someone who did.
No-one would have dreamed of bubbling hydrogen through vegetable fat and throwing in some nickel to help the process. But that's a very quick explanation of how margarine is made. It's originally white and has yellow dye added to make it appear more appetising.
As a general rule, if you can't pronounce some of the ingredients of your food or describe how they're made, it's time to think long and hard about whether you should be eating that particular thing.

Of course, the ingredients lists are often in small print and the production process is likely only found by digging through somewhere like Wikipedia.
But the end result is the same: food that looks and tastes like food but that is actually something that's been carefully constructed in a laboratory and then a factory that only looks like a kitchen when it's domesticated for a television advert.

Our bodies cope with this. But not always well, which is why weight loss is usually easier when you keep to mainly natural foods that have had as little processing as possible.
The easiest way to check this for yourself is to forgo as much processed food as possible for the next few weeks and see how you feel.
If you're like most people, you'll feel better. Maybe slightly trimmer. Maybe a slightly lower blood pressure. And almost certainly more energy.
Which is the body's way of telling us "do more of this!"
The other benefit is that you'll probably eat less.

Even something as innocent looking as fruit juice is processed.
You'll happily quaff a glass or two of orange juice.
But you'd look at me as though I was a madman if I suggested that you ate 4 or 8 oranges right now instead of those one or two glasses of juice.

And even the most ardent sugar addict (or sweet toothed child) would be unlikely to add 12 teaspoons of sugar to a cup of tea or coffee. But that's roughly what you get in a can of fizzy pop.
So do your waistline a favour and reduce your intake of processed foods.

Why Can't I Lose Weight? 3 Inflammatory Foods You Should Know About!

No comments yet

http://th3perfectbody.blogspot.com/2013/09/why-cant-i-lose-weight-3-inflammatory.html

Weight Loss

The experts say that inflammation is a huge factor that could contribute to weight gain. Therefore, if you have been wondering why you can't lose weight, you should consider that your digestive system might be inflamed.
If this is the case your body might have lost the ability or capacity to digest and absorb all the necessary nutrients.
This will impact negatively your weight.
The effects?
If you feel you're constantly craving for more and more foods, this could be one of the factors.
Let's have a look at 3 top inflammatory foods you should avoid:
1. Inflammatory Food Number One: Wheat:
Since agricultural scientists started tinkering with wheat, it is not what it used to be anymore. Many of those changes could cause problems for your digestive system.
Take a look at the following effects:

Gut inflammation (Produced by gluten)
Hunger suppression (Not recognizing your full)
Chemicals (Causing your body to store fat)
Thyroid related problems (Slowing down your metabolism, making you store more fat)
Super starch (since you body can't digest it, leading to inflammation and extra fat storage)

Those are just some of the really bad effects of wheat, effects that could break or make your weight loss plans.
2. Inflammatory Food Number Two: Commercial Food:
The daily commercial food has many inflammatory properties. For example:

Frozen daily products
Corn products
Baking and frying fats
Corn sweeteners

And the list goes on, this is just a sample. The problem with diary products is they don't have enough Omega 3 fatty acids, the right type of fat.
All of this could cause your body to react in a negative way, confusing your body chemistry, and finally causing you severe weight problems.
3. Inflammatory Food Number Three: Processed And Cheap Oils:
Cheap oils like vegetable oils are mostly composed unusable Omega 6 fatty acids and a very dangerous form of fat called trans fats.
If you diet is lacking in healthy fats, or even, worse if the food you eat has a high percentages of inflammatory properties, you could develop all types of health related issues.
If you have wondering why you can't lose weight, maybe you should take the time to think about how your current diet is. Maybe the only thing you need to start losing weight is to make some changes, finding better and healthier substitutes. We don't live in a perfect world, but we can do our best by making better food choices.

Before 2011 Alexander Palmer used to weigh 220 lbs. In 2011 he made the decision to make a change. He lost more than 50 lbs in 6 months without dieting. Instead he educated himself on how to eat properly. Would you like to know how? go to: why can't I lose weight

Your resistance training program should be designed with your fitness goals in mind! However, every routine should share these elements:

Warm-up (aerobic) - five minutes low intensity to break a sweat. (Examples: running, cycling, walking, etc).

Pre-exercise stretching - hold at a gentle stretch for 15-20 sec., stretch muscles that you'll be using during your workout. (Example: hamstrings, calves, quads and chest).

Post -exercise stretching & strengthening - 1 to 2 minutes/muscle groups for stretching, and add abdominal and low back strengthening if they have not been included in your weight training routine.

Order of Exercises: Start with large or multiple muscle groups (chest press, lat pull down, leg press and squats), followed by small muscle group (biceps, triceps, deltoids and calves).

Amount of weight: The correct weight should produce fatigue by the last repetition in each set, or determine resistance by using a percentage (typically 60-80%) of your one repetition maximum. (Example: If you can lift a maximum of 50 lbs. one time during leg extension, 70% of that would be 35 lbs.)

Rest: 48 to 72 hours between workout sessions for each muscle group.

For many people, a desire to have a more attractive body leads to an interest in natural bodybuilding. A lean and fit body requires hard work and determination. An undesirable short cut measure is to take drugs for bulk, but this is not recommended.

Joints can be damaged by muscle development going at a faster rate than the joints. Naturally paced growth in muscle development is long lasting.

The market is however saturated with a number of instructors that you would get confused when it comes to settling for one. The following are tips that could guide you to a good Mesa personal trainer or one from any other region.

Due to the increased demand for fitness instructors today, many agents have increased the rates they charge for weight loss and fitness programs. This is good to know because it would allow you to prepare early for the costs of such a plan. Setting aside part of your income to cater for such costs would be the most prudent thing to do. Of course you should steer away from overly-expensive agents that would only lead you to debts.

The internet has always been a good place to gather information on just about anything. This is no different when it comes to learning about good facilitates and agents in your area. One day juts sit down for a few minutes with a pen and paper or whatever you p refer and research on fitness instructors around your locale. You would be pleasantly surprised at the number of options that would be opened up to you.

Informal mediums such as the usual local grapevine would also be an excellent source for information regarding this matter.

It is always a guarantee that you would find something or someone you could work with for your own little miracle.

There would be no point of you settling for an agent that lacks the basic equipment that would help you tone up. Basic gym equipment such as weights, mats and so forth must be in abundance. Otherwise, hiring the services of such an agent could prove to be a waste of time and money.

Marketing experts at times say that location is everything. A good location is what usually attracts clients to a business or an operation. This same rule applies to fitness centers. These must be located at a place where clients would feel at ease and safe as they work away the calories. You should never go to centers or settle for facilitators that have no good locations for training.

The track record of the potential facilitator must also be put into perspective. Having one that would not push you hard enough or encourage you to give the routine your best should not suffice. Past clients that have greatly benefited from the instructions given would in many cases give you the best glimpse to whether or not a particular facilitator is worth it.

These tips would usually come in handy in a checklist for an effective Mesa personal trainer. Gut instinct should also be in your list. This only means that you should always follow your gut instinct in such cases as it will never lead you astray.
