The Dangers Of Fasting For Weight Loss
October 13, 2009by Katherine Crawford M.S.· Leave a Comment
The fitness industry is constantly looking for the next best thing for you to digest. In an effort to keep things fresh, an endless amount of fad diets have hit the market. One specific diet that has gained popularity is the fast.
The big problem with fasting, however, is that it can cause some very serious issues especially if you do it for a prolonged period of time. Don’t believe me? Here are 6 reasons why you shouldn’t be fasting:
1. Liver drainage. What drains out of your liver? Glycogen. And this can happen in less than a days time. Without glycogen your body doesn’t have a mechanism to control blood sugar. Thus, you’ll end up with extremely low levels of energy.
2. The transformation of muscle to sugar. Without sugar, the brain shuts down. This is one of the reasons diabetes is so scary. When you fast, sugar becomes depleted in your body. In order to prevent death, your body begins to transform muscle tissue into sugar.
3. The breakdown of organs. Muscle won’t be the only target here. Your body will also break down vital organs and tissues, to a lesser degree of course. And cannibalizing your own organs is probably not that healthy?
4. Ketone bodies. Your body can only cannibalize so much tissue before you enter the danger zone. And once you’re in the danger zone, your body will do everything it can to get you out. How does it do it? With the production of ketones which are basically an inferior substitute for blood sugar.
5. No proof of cleansing. Many people fast because they believe it cleanses their body. Yet no conclusive scientific studies have proven this. In fact, a recent documentary by the BBC showed that fasting provided NO benefit whatsoever in terms of increased health.
6. Acid/base mayhem. Fasting is most likely going to disrupt the acid-base balance in your body. In addition to loses in minerals and the degradation of your intestinal lining. And the worst part of all of this is that exercise becomes extremely painful.
Unfortunately, most fasts are also accompanied by a weight gain rebound. This happens because as you fast your metabolism slows down significantly. Then once you stop fasting, you eat an excess to compensate, but you have a slower metabolism!
What Is Causing Your Fatness?

Top scientists believe that weight gain is being caused by many things, there is no single enemy here. Therefore, your struggles with body fat is most likely caused by a variety of negative variables.
In an effort to explain excess body fat, scientists have come up with some theories. And although these theories aren’t set in stone, they may provide some insight as to why you’re gaining weight.
So without further delay, here are potential explanations for why you’re carrying extra weight:
1. Lipoprotein lipase. Dietary fat gets shoved into fat cells by lipoprotein lipase. According to this theory, those with too much body fat have too much lipoprotein lipase. And those with little body fat have less.
2. Sheer number of fat cells. Your fat cells can increase in size, but they can also replicate and increase in number. Proponents of this idea believe that overweight individuals have a higher number of fat cells and therefore constantly struggle with losing weight.
3. The regulated point. According to this one, your body has a certain weight or set point that it tries very hard to stay at. Any effort on your part to change will be immediately thwarted by metabolic slow down.
4. Brown fat. Not all body fat is created equal. White fat, the one responsible for fat storage, is sluggish and wants to hoard nutrients. Brown fat, on the other hand, makes fat cells release their energy as heat. This theory believes that lean people have a higher proportion of brown fat.
5. Thermic effect of food. Right after you eat, your body burns a little extra calories because of the thermic effect of food. This theory claims that lean people burn more right after eating in comparison to overweight people.
Now please don’t get too caught up with these multiple explanations of weight gain. After all, you do have a lot of control on how your body looks. Consistent research has shown that lifestyle factors account for a very large portion of weight gain regardless of genetics.
The Master Cleanse Diet
October 7, 2009by Steve Brodie· Leave a Comment
If your job is to make the majority of the home meals then cleansing can prove difficult for you. Advice on how to tackle such a situation is below from someone in the same boat as yourself. She not only has to make all the meals for her own family, but is also a chef at her own restaurant, meaning she is preparing and cooking meals for others all day. So youll gain some great hints and tips on cleansing your body when it seems like everyone in your immediate circumference is not!
So if youve been having trouble getting through the cleanse, or the thought of getting through it because of these things leaves you not attempting it at all, then read on.
I would like to help & motivate you all who are on this simple & effective diet by sharing what I have been through & still on. I am a chef & I live to eat, ( I am not kidding) my life revolves around my family & food, I smell & see it every waking moment, & even in my dreams, I read cookbooks almost every night because I love to cook & imagine food, also more practically I have to plan my familys meal for the next day!
Being the only one in the house who has always done the cooking for her two daughters and husband does not make it easy especially when they wont eat leftovers. Listen to what she has to say as it has worked for her and she is around gorgeous smelling and looking food all day and night.
Her advice is looking at your desire for this cleanse, your motivation, what is the true outcome that you would want your results to look like? Being able to eat as much French food as she wants when on her Paris trip, as well as having the holiday pictures of herself turn out just the way she would like to look are what keeps our chef motivated.
Although a lot of us may be doing it to tone and lose weight what appears to be the same motivation on the outside may be quite different on the inside as we are all losing the weight for different reasons.
Its the detailing of what you want in your minds eye that is going to really help you succeed. There are lots of things you can do to make your minds eye clearer, for example if its weight you are wanting to lose, you could cut out pictures of people that have the body and figure you desire. Or you could cut out images of clothes that you would adore to be wearing. This makes your image so real and provides a picture board of things to look at whenever you start to crave other food during the cleanse. In order to keep the images vividly in your mind, you can collate all of them onto a piece of cardboard and hang it somewhere obvious or simply decorate your home with them so they are seen everywhere you look, including on and in the fridge!
I hope that this helps you in your endeavour to cleanse. If you really want to do yourself one of the biggest favors possible, do a cleanse but make sure you have in your mind a very clear reason for doing it, focus on the details.
Cleansing is a wonderful process if you give yourself the time to do it, it will give you a lovely clean inside so your body can perform efficiently, including your brain.
How To Get Sexy Arms With Proper Nutrition If You Workout In The Morning
October 3, 2009by Katherine Crawford M.S.· Leave a Comment
Basic nutrition for getting sexy arms is not too hard to follow. And if you ignore all the marketing hype and fads, it’s relatively simple to understand.
Unfortunately, there are specific scenarios when advanced nutrition is needed. You can’t stick to the basics or else you may set back your sexy arm mission.
One such scenario is when you exercise very early in the day. This one is tricky because your body has been breaking down all night in the starved state.
So here is your early morning nutrition guide for getting rid of fat arms:
1. Drink 2 cups of water immediately. This has to be your top priority. When you wake up you are severely dehydrated. And dehydration will really mess up digestion. So without water you will not be able to efficiently digest your breakfast.
2. When the workout is 3 hours upon waking. Eat a complete and balanced breakfast. Don’t skimp here! Have a source of protein, carbs and fat. And if you want to take it to the next level, add in some vegetables.
3. When the workout is 1 hour upon waking. You need some carbs and some fat to slow down the digestion of the carbs. A good choice here would be a peanut butter sandwich. And make sure the bread is whole grain, no high fructose corn syrup allowed!
4. If you’re going to exercise 10 minutes after waking up. Have some type of carbohydrate supplement like Gu energy gel. Or you could have a shake with maltodextrin and casein protein. The maltodextrin will be absorbed very quickly by your body and the protein will prevent muscle breakdown.
It’s very difficult for your body to digest food within 10 minutes before working out. I strongly recommend you do NOT follow this type of routine. Strive for at least 30 minutes between eating breakfast and exercising. This is the BARE minimum needed for somewhat proper digestion. And remember that working out earlier in the day is the best thing you can do to get sexy arms!
