Healthy Diet for Hemorrhoids Prevention

Following a healthy diet for hemorrhoids prevention is not only great for colon and digestive health, but astounding for one’s entire body inside and out. People that eat a healthy diet feel fantastic inside while their outer appearance looks radiant. It will improve your overall quality of life.

Unhealthy fatty junk food and processed foods that lack nutritional value play a major role in poor colon and digestive health. Eating a high-fight and cholesterol diet could be setting you up for hemorrhoids to appear in or around the rectum and anus. This is condition people want to avoid.

Hemorrhoids develop as inflamed growths caused by a swollen vein or group of swollen veins located in and around the anal cavity.

You Don’t Need Food Supplements to Stay Healthy

Are you taking food supplements? Why?

If you answer “To stay healthy,” then you are off the mark.

I take Kirkland’s Mature Multi because my daughter insists that I should (and pays for it, too). Otherwise, I would go with Dr. Donald McCormick, Ph.D. and Emory University professor emeritus of biochemistry who said, “A lot of money is wasted in providing unnecessary supplements to millions of people who don’t need them.”

This is after Emory University’s study showing that practically half of people 65 and above are taking supplements aside from the daily nutrition they get from the food they eat. Continue reading “You Don’t Need Food Supplements to Stay Healthy”

The Only Reason We Are Over Weight Is Because We Overeat

If you have been following me for a while you would know that I always describe “Natural Eating” as being not about what you eat but how you eat. Today I wanted to discuss why we eat and why so many people are overweight.

In my opinion the only reason we are overweight is because we overeat. We overeat because we are eating for the wrong reasons. The only time our body actually wants food is when it is hungry. Most people have lost the ability to know whether they are physically hungry or emotionally.

The reasons we eat other than for physical nourishment are:

· Emotional reasons, ie: boredom, loneliness, anger, sadness, stress, depression or disappointment.

· To keep our emotions inside ourselves instead of facing them.

How to Lose Weight With a Foreman Grill

If President Obama made me his food czar, I would require everyone in the country to purchase a George Foreman grill. Besides making ole George Foreman a billionaire, it would trim inches from your waist and make you the envy of every Weight Watchers client. This fat zapping machine cooks up just about any hunk of meat in mere minutes and serves up some very tasty and healthy food.

The reason I love this machine in the first place is because I’m basically a lazy man. I bought my first Foreman grill just because all the commercials were saying you could cook a weeks worth of chicken in under 10 minutes. “This is great!” I thought, cause I could just throw chicken on the grill and have a whole weeks worth and be done with it. The reason I got fat in the first place was because I was too busy or lazy to cook, so I wound up eating out a few times a day. So I threw that chicken on the grill and after a minute or so, I noticed that this thick liquid was getting on my counter. In all my haste, I forgot to put the fat catcher under the grill!

Christmas Is Not a Diet Killer and January 1st Is Not a Magic Diet Fixer

It’s the season for sweet treats, heavy foods, and overeating. Obviously my patients want me to fatten me up for something special because this is a pretty close representation of what my reception area looks like:

It’s that time of year where even the guys with the most strict eating habits break down and have a cookie or 3. I even helped myself to a nice cheat meal last week. I was out with my fiancé at the Royal Palm Beach Commons Park for one of their monthly Food Truck Invasions.

I had helped myself to a large portion of barbecue brisket (fat and all) and was feeling pretty satisfied. My fiance and her friend decided to split a nice desert from the French Crepe foodtruck. A ridiculous Nutella and marshmallow concoction that looked and smelled like type II diabetes. Continue reading “Christmas Is Not a Diet Killer and January 1st Is Not a Magic Diet Fixer”

Lipotropic Injections – How Effective are Lipotropics Shots For Weight Loss – My Story

First, what exactly are lipotropics?

They are substances that help dissolve or break down fat so that it can removed from your body through your waste.

How do lipotropic injections help you get rid of fat?

They stimulate the creation of lecithin in your liver. This helps to make the cholesterol in your body more liquid and this decreases cholesterol in your blood.

They thwart the buildup of fats in your liver. If your liver is fatty then your liver function will be slow moving and so will your metabolism.

They boost your immunity to illness through causing the production of antibodies that eat up viruses and infections. Continue reading “Lipotropic Injections – How Effective are Lipotropics Shots For Weight Loss – My Story”

Easy Healthy Diet From Paleo Cookbooks

Everybody in this universe wants to lead a healthy life. Most of us are not successful in achieving a normalized body health. Obesity is the main problem for many of us.
