How to Start a Keto Diet Plan

The keto diet plan is a high-intake, high-fiber, sufficient-potassium diet which in medicinal circles is often used primarily to treat childhood epilepsy in very young children. The keto diet forces your body to use up fat instead of glucose for energy. This results in reduced hunger and allows you to stick to a reasonable diet even when you are highly hungry. It can be practiced by anyone, even if you have had a heart or kidney disease or diabetes in the past.

The keto diet plan is not designed for long-term weight control, as it puts a lot of emphasis on fats. The ketogenic diet pyramid is based around eating a wide variety of different carbohydrates and proteins. A lot of people don’t like the idea of eliminating carbohydrates from their diet and would rather focus on proteins, so the use of the MOST PROBABLY IMPORTANT carbohydrates are typically ignored in the process. By eliminating certain carbohydrates you can achieve ketosis easily, however this can be quite hard at first as your body gets accustomed to the absence of the carbohydrates you were once consuming.

Eat Guts & Grease For Increased Strength & Vitality

I hate diets. I hate people who talk and teach about diets even more. If you can’t tell, I’m a bit angry and confused. For thousands upon thousands of years we as a race of humans have walked the earth in extraordinary health living WITH nature and sharing of her abundance. No diets, just eating.

Instinctual Eating

Food, water and shelter were all provided by her… all our needs were met. We were rugged, intelligent and extremely vital well into our older age. A strong example of this reality are the Hunzakut people of the Himalayas. This “lost race” of people, when interviewed by Renee Taylor in the 1906’s were found to:

Healthy Nuts: The Best Ones

Which are best healthy nuts available in the market? The perfect answer is not available currently.

From one study, around 32% of nuts consumed were peanuts, 16% walnuts, 29% almonds and 23% are other types. But researchers could not judge whether these nuts were oil-roasted, dry-roasted or fresh.

From another study, peanuts, technically known as ‘legumes’, help to reduce heart disease risks’ as of tree nuts. Experiments were done by giving nuts to volunteers in daily diet for a couple of weeks.

Almonds, walnuts, peanuts, hazelnuts, pecans, macadamia nuts and pistachio nuts all affect blood composition in different ways which lower coronary disease risks. Chestnuts, having low fat, are still not studied properly. Continue reading “Awe Nuts – Just the Healthy Ones! Part One”

High School Wrestling: Diet and Weight Loss Options

As wrestling season draws near, wrestlers begin to contemplate the weight class in which they may wrestle. Wrestlers often believe that they will be more competitive at the lowest weight they can reach without sacrificing their strength and endurance. This isn’t always the case. Too often, wrestlers end up dehydrated. They end up starving themselves and their performance suffers greatly.

A Big, Fat, Deadly Lie About Produce

Fruits and vegetables. The phrase sounds innocent enough, and we hear it all the time.

But here’s the problem. It makes them seem as if they’re equal, and they’re not. In fact, fruits always get top billing, which reinforces their healthful status. A status they don’t necessarily deserve.

Here’s another phrase that has become a big, fat, deadly lie in its own right: “5 a day.”

That one comes directly from the superseded Food Guide Pyramid, which called for 3 to 5 servings of vegetables per day and 2 to 4 servings of fruit a day. To simplify, we added together the low values and got 5 a day.
