The Top Five Dieting Methods Explained

July 15th, 2009 annie No comments

Let’s face it, finding the perfect diet plan can take a very long time. And good healthy weight loss can be achieved effectively only when you find a dieting plan that fits perfectly into your lifestyle. There are many weight loss plans to choose from and it’s important that you use a plan that you feel comfortable with because you want something that you can stick with for a long period of time, Well atleast a couple of month because solid results won’t be visible straight away. And when

you’re done with that diet plan you can try other things.

I do a lot of research on dieting and exercising and I have found a lot of dieting plans proposed and/or promoted by different people. For example, there is the 5-Factor Diet, South Beach Diet, Bob Greene’s Best Life Diet, Atkins Diet, Cabbage Soup Diet, Detox Diet, Anne Collin’s diet, Carbohydrate Addict’s Diet, and now there’s the Size Zero Diet, DASH diet and Fat Smash Diet and …. Well it goes on and on! But we should narro

w down the dieting plans to the top five popular diets that are mentioned a lot in the media.

Cabbage Soup Diet

This dieting plan was favoured by a lot of people when it was first launched because of its utter simplicity. Proponents of Cabbage soup diet claim that by only consuming a low calorie cabbage soup for a short period of 7 days (1 week) you can lose up to 10 pounds of weight, that’s not bad for 7 days. So the cabbage soup diet is only a short term program for good reasonable weigh

t loss. However according to nutritional experts it’s highly unlikely for your body to lose up to 10 pounds of fat within a short week.

In fact the only thing you’ll lose with this diet plan is body water. This is bad news because when you think about it, this diet plan will be highly detrimental to your health. That’s why it’s considered by most experts as a fad diet. However, on the other hand there are people who still believe in it and there are many variations of this plan being used by people. If you’re thinking about doing this diet, I would recommend you consult your doctor first to ensure you won’t face any health risks.

Fat Smash Diet

Dr. Smith’s Fat Smash Diet is an approach to weight loss not considered to be a quick fix solution but instead as a lifestyle dieting plan. It gained a lot of popularity because of the Celebrity Fit Club TV program where people could see it first hand being put into practice. It mainly consists on healthful diet, filling foods, and lots of exercising as a necessary addition. It focuses on low calorie content of the diet which is easy to incorporate. And this plan doesn’t make any ridiculous claims of fast weight loss. It can be implemented whether you’re looking for a short term or a long term weight loss.

The Fat Smash Diet is a 4 phase plan, the first 3 phases extending to about 2 months and the fourth phase being a lifetime phase. This plan lays as much stress on regular exercises as on proper diet control. So it’s going to take hard work and determination to see good results.

Atkins Diet

Dr. Atkins diet consists on the premise that the key cause of obesity is because of eating refined carbohydrates, particularly sugar, flour, and high-fructose corn syrups; and secondly, the fat from hydrogenated oils and not the saturated fat are a problem. The Atkins dieting plan was based on very low carbohydrates. However medical experts aren’t really fans of this diet, they’ve been very critical and condemning it as “the most dangerous to the public if incorporated for any period of time.” And due to the negativity the Atkins diet is now considered as a fad diet.

South Beach Diet

The South Beach dieting plan was created by Dr. Agatston for his heart patients and its launch for weight loss was nothing but a spin-off. This diet focuses on the consumption of “good carbohydrates” and “good fats”. “Good carbohydrates” are rich in fiber and they’re digested and absorbed by your body slowly. “Good fats” are polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, especially the ones that contain omega-3 fatty acids. And when you look at saturated and trans fats, those are the bad type of fat which makes you gain weight. And this diet plan has in fact been perceived to be good and successful for weight loss.

DASH Diet

This dieting plan is mainly for patients that suffer from high blood pressure. It focuses on following a diet which is low in saturated fat, total fat, and chole

Rosa Parks: Life after Montgomery

July 14th, 2009 annie No comments

It is well known that Rosa Parks played a spearhead role in the civil rights movement, by refusing to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama city bus to a white passenger. Her life was a flicker of hope in a world of inequality.  It’s important to understand what happened to her after the bus boycotts that were started soon after her arrest. The Montgomery Bus Boycott was organized because of Rosa’s arrest for violating the city ordinance that demanded all public transportation be segrega

Rosa Parks had two books published about her life one in 1992 and the other in 1995. Her first book was an autobiography named, Rosa Parks: My Story; this publication recounted her life in the south during the time of segregation. Her second book titled Quiet Strength spoke about what part religion played in her life. While Rosa’s story has become an inspiration for all races it is important to understand that she lived through hardships.

Along with the hardships she faced, she also had moments of high achievement earning some of the United States highest awards including the Spingam Award, which is the NAACP’s highest honor; Martin Luther King, Jr. Award; Presidential Medal of Freedom, which was awarded by then President Bill Clinton, and the highest award given by our executive branch; Congressional Gold Medal, which is again the highest award given by our legislative branch; and in 1999 Time Magazine named Rosa Parks as one of the 20th centuries most influential people. She has been given high praise for her profound influence in the fight for equal rights.

Sadly on October 24, 2005 Rosa Parks died in her apartment at the age of 92, from complications of progressive dementia. Her death was celebrated by many memorials including lying in state at Capital Hill Rotunda in Washington D.C. There were approximately 50,000 visitors who came to pay their last respects to this amazing lady. She was later buried at Woodlawn Cemetery in Detroit between her mother and her husband.  Later the mausoleum where she was buried was renamed the “Rosa L. Parks Freedom Chapel”.  This was a fitting end to an amazing life; it is still amazing that one lady could bring about such change with one simple action.

Menopause Weight Gain: Are you Bloated and Sluggish?

July 13th, 2009 annie No comments

At Menopause, our body goes through changes, that can cause a list of symptoms, including menopause weight gain.

But if you are in good shape, have always watched your diet, and had no problems until this “special time”, then you may need to tweak your routines.

It only makes sense that if our bodies are going through changes, then our routines will likely have to change as well. Personally, I found all of a sudden certain foods did not digest as well as they did. Foods that I have eaten

all my life, are now causing indigestion. I quizzed a few friends and found the same answers with them.

So, before you start reaching for those antacids, go to the doctor, get that long overdue checkup, and make sure all your systems are “go”, since there are many health issues that can strike at this age, such as thyroid problems, and gall bladder issues. If you get the all clear, then try listening to your body. It will definitely tell you what it doesn’t like.

In my case, I suddenly co

uld not digest beef. I have eaten beef all my life, raised with the Sunday family dinners with Roast Beef and all the trimmings, and suddenly I can’t digest it without pain or indigestion. Instead of reaching for antacids that will just mask the problem, I decided to stay away from beef for awhile with some surprising results.

I guess my body had not liked digesting certain foods, especially beef for a about a year, because around that time my blood pressure started to rise, and I was bloated

, and sluggish all the time. My doctor wanted me on blood pressure meds, but we decided to go the diet route to begin with. I saw a dietician, who said to me, “if you need to take antacids or digestive aids to digest a certain food (in my case beef) then maybe your body doesn’t want it right now”.

I came away from it, and concentrated on other proteins, like chicken, fish, eggs and nuts, and that was all I changed. One month later I am down 5 pounds, without really trying, and my blood pressure dropped 15 points down to normal. I was totally shocked, and so was my doctor. I no longer felt sluggish or bloated.

So, if you are having trouble with menopause weight gain, take a closer look at your diet, are some foods not sitting as well as they use to?. Are you just eating them out of habit?.. Do you find high fat snack foods cause indigestion?.. Then listen to your body and make some changes. Don’t just mask the problems, they will only get worse and possibly come out as other symptoms, as with me and my blood pressure, menopause weight gain, and sluggishness. You are in charge of your own health, listen to your body.

Vitamin D Benefits for Women: Five Ways Vitamin D Benefits Female Health

July 13th, 2009 annie No comments

Helps prevent hip and other bone fractures One of D vitamin’s primary functions is to regulate the body’s absorption of calcium in the body, making it a key player in the prevention of bone softening diseases such as osteoporosis and osteomalasia. A 2009 study by the University of Pittsburgh determined that low levels of the vitamin can increase post-menopausal women’s risk of hip fracture by as much as 70%.

by the German Cancer Research Center, which monitored almost 2,800 post-menopausal women, concluded that women with very low blood levels of the vitamin had a significantly higher risk of developing breast cancer than those with adequate levels.

In addition, the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reports that in four-year clinical trial involving 1,179 healthy post-menopausal women showed that improving calcium and vitamin D nutritional status substantially reduced all-cancer risk in postm

Deficiencies linked to bacterial infections in pregnant women Another University of Pittsburgh study indicated that there was a strong correlation between low levels of the vitamin and the incidence of bacterial vaginosis in the more than 460 pregnant women participating in the research. Bacterial vaginosis is one of the primary causes of premature delivery and fetal death.

A total of 41 percent of the study participants were diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis, and 93 percent

of the women with the infection had insufficient levels of the vitamin. It was further observed that as blood levels of the vitamin rose, the incidence of infection decreased.

May help prevent and treat depression It is known that the vitamin plays a key role in a number of neurological and hormonal processes, and feelings of depression are identified as one of the symptoms of D vitamin deficiency. This connection may be of increasing importance to older women, because the body’s ability to manufacture D vitamin decreases as we age.

The importance of the vitamin to mood was established in a 2008 study by the University of Amsterdam, which showed that older people with low levels of the vitamin were more likely to be depressed. The researchers said that while additional study is warranted to determine whether low levels of the vitamin were the cause of depression or a side effect of it, they observed that the correlation between low D vitamin levels and depression were unmistakable.

Boosts energy and improves physical performance Feelings of fatigue are among the symptoms of D vitamin deficiency, and recent research by the Wake Forest University School of Medicine pinpoints the importance of sufficient levels of the vitamin for improving performance among older people.

The study analyzed data from 976 people aged 65 and older. The study found that physical performance, which included factors such as walking speed, grip strength, and ability to rise from a sitting position to standing, was 10 percent lower among participants with deficient blood levels of the vitamin.

Uterine Fibroids and Pregnancy – Getting Pregnant With Fibroids

July 12th, 2009 annie No comments

If you are thinking about having a baby, you are no doubt excited about the prospect of becoming a parent. However, if you have fibroids, you may be wondering about the connection between fibroids and pregnancy.

Getting pregnant with fibroids is often not as big an issue as many women imagine it to be. Indeed, most women go on to have normal conceptions, pregnancies and deliveries. However, there are potential problems at each step and it is important that you are aware of what the issues are.

uterine fibroids and pregnancy getting pregnant with fibroids


If you are worried about fibroids and pregnancy, one of the possible problems which can occur is a blockage of the fallopian tube or cervix. Even small fibroids which just happen to develop at the entrance of either of these structures can block the passage of sperm, causing infertility. Another possible problem relates to submucosal fibroids. If larger fibroids develop just beneath the womb lining, they can distort the uterine cavity and, in some cases, stop implantation of a fertilized egg.

Later in pregnancy, occasionally larger fibroids can cause the baby to be born a little early, but this is not usually a problem. If fibroids are situated lower down in the uterus, the can obstruct delivery, so a cesarean may be required.

Fibroids are undoubtedly a sign that something is wrong within the body. Fibroids and pregnancy are not the ideal mix, therefore if you are aware that you have fibroids before conception, it makes perfect sense to try to get rid of them if at all possible as

a fibroid-free pregnancy is best for both mother and baby. Surgery and drug treatments are not always the best treatment for fibroids and with the prospect of a forthcoming pregnancy, neither of these options are suitable.

Many women get their bodies ready for pregnancy by eating healthier, doing more exercise, having health checks and perhaps taking appropriate vitamin and mineral supplements. Taking steps to shrink your fibroids to minimize the possibility of fibroids having any possible negative impact makes perfect sense.

Fibroids are a condition which respond very well to natural remedies and they are an ideal condition to treat because as they are so rarely life-threatening. It makes complete sense to try out a natural treatment for fibroids before resorting to surgery or any of the hormonal drugs which can cause their own side effects. In the case of pregnancy, most women want to ensure that they are giving themselves and their baby the best possible chances and naturally, a fibroid-free environment is best for both. To learn more about the effects of getting pregnant with fibroids, you may like to visit my website, Fibroids and Pregnancy.

There you will find comprehensive information about various treatments and solutions as well as information about the impact of fibroids on fertility.

The Answer To PCOS – A Healthy And Natural Lifestyle

July 10th, 2009 annie No comments

You’ve got too much hair on your face, chest or back. You might be experiencing a receding hairline that’s getting worse with time. You haven’t been able to get pregnant and have brown/gray skin patches on your neck, knees, armpits, and elbows. Your armpits and neck have mushroom like over growths of skin called skin tags.

If you are suffering from these symptoms, then you are suffering from a condition called polycystic ovary syndrome or PCOS. There is a known link between having polycysti

c ovary syndrome and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance results when your body doesn’t properly respond to insulin in the blood which causes insulin levels to build up.

The elevated insulin increases testosterone levels and makes you gain weight where men tend to gain it: around the midsection. Too much insulin causes liver damage, increases your chance of getting diabetes, decreases good cholesterol, and leads to blockage of the arteries. It is also the reason for the symptoms mentioned

The long term health consequences of this damage is not good. If you don’t get your insulin level under control, you may get diabetes and heart disease.

Fortunately, this can be remedied naturally through “healthy living”. This entails a regimen of aerobic exercise that elevates the heart rate and strength exercises that build up muscle.

Living healthy also means consuming the right foods such as fruits and vegetables, fish, poultry, and lean meats. Avo

You should avoid consuming too much food. Eat a salad before the start of a meal as this makes you feel fuller and reduces food consumption.

Make an effort to reduce the stress in your life. Stress alters your hormone balance. This results in weight gain around the middle of your body.

What is really critical is not to go it alone. A knowledgeable health professional is necessary for getting the right diet and exercise routines. You will need emotional support from a PCOS support group which will make it easier to stick with your program.

Natural Treatments For Fibroids-The Best Option?

July 10th, 2009 annie No comments

If you are suffering from fibroids and have decided against surgery, this could be one of the best decisions you will make. Surgical options, with the exception of a hysterectomy are rarely permanent solutions as they do nothing to remove the causes of fibroids so although you will undoubtedly get temporary relief, the fibroids are likely to regrow.

Natural treatment for fibroids is very much focused on removing the actual <i>causes</i> of fibroids, thus ensuring that there is no “

As doctors remain very much undecided as to the exact causes of fibroids in individuals, it is well-known that there are many possible causes and not each one will be present in every woman. Excess estrogen is a trigger factor. However, not every woman with high estrogen will have fibroids and conversely, women

In addition, toxins, weight gain, diet, exercise levels, age and race are all other “possibles”. Natural treatment for fibroids therefore focuses on systematically removing each possible cause from a a woman’s life-accepting that not every factor will be relevant in each case. However, the steps you will take are certainly beneficial for good, overall health and most women report a huge increase in their feeling of well-being when they

embark on such a plan.

There is little doubt in my mind that natural treatment for fibroids is the best option because firstly, it encourages good, overall health and secondly, by systematically removing each possible “trigger” this ensures that providing you stick with the plan in the longer term your fibroids will not regrow.

As well as general advice and information, you can also find details of an excellent natural treatment for fibroids which has worked successfully for thousands of women worldwide.
