How to lose weight without suffering?

Many people want to lose weight but yet want it the easy way. Therefore many start to take diet replacement meals, carbohydrate blocker, etc. But ask your self, does it really works?

My answer is YES but the moment you stop taking , your weight comes back again.

How can one lose weight without suffering?
There are 3 forms of nutrients that we needed to convert to energy.
i) Carbohydrates
ii) Fats
iii) Protein

Carbohydrates take about 2 hours to digest fully. Example: If you are ate a plate of fried rice for lunch, by the time it reach 3pm, you feel hungry again. And during these period, if you cannot use up the energy, it will be converted and stored as fat.

Fats on the other hand will take about 3-4 hours to digest fully therefore compare to carbohydrate, your energy level will last longer.

Protein is among all the best source of energy as it will take 6hours and more to digest fully. That's why if you eat a huge steak, you will not feel hungry for a long time.

Tips on dieting :
1) Cut down on carbohydrate intake. Food like White Polished Rice, Noodles and mee can be reduced and possible avoided. Replace your carbohydrate source from fresh fruits and vegetable.

2) Take high protein but low fat food.

3) Stop Snacking.

4) Eat lesser per meal but increase the numbers of meals to keep the metabolism high at all times.

5) Do simple execise at least twice a week for 20mins.

6) Drink more water.

Not all Salmon Omega3 are safe to consume

Salmon Omega3 is one great products.
They are good for people suffering from :-
1) Hypertension
2) Heart Problem
3) Diabetes
4) Sweaty palm
5) Coldness in hands and feet.
6) Anaemia

There are a lot of different brands in the market but not all of them are safe to consume. There was a research and testing done in Hong Kong, the result show that there is more than 80% of the Salmon Omega3 which are not pure Salmon Omega and some of them are not safe to consume.

Why?
The best Salmon are being harvested in Europe. And because to control the balance of the habitat and the pollution done by the fishing boat, the country has controlled when and who to fish. There are only a few companies license to fish these Salmon.

Because the amount of salmon are limited, many company outside cannot afford to use 100% pure Salmon Omega3, they will mix it with Soya Omega3.

One very important information on Salmon Omega3 is that they can be oxidised easily. So during the manufacturing process, if it is not taken care properly, the omega3 can be damage. And an oxidised Omega3 has no nutrition value and it may even cause Cancers.

You will find some brands are very much cheaper than others, don't be fool by this as i am quite sure that the quality of the product is a question mark.

Don't save this kind of money, buy from well-known brands such as " " Nutrilite."
Don't take risk on your health, if not it will cost you even more.


How to recover from Sweaty Palm?

This is a common problem with many people. And because of this problem, it affects many people 's self-confidence and they do not like to shake hand with other people.

Sometime when we are nervous or in cold environment, we can also have sweaty palm.
Doctor will advise you to go through an operation, my suggestion is Don't

Many people especially ladies will also have very cold hands and feet especially in the morning.

For many of you who is suffering from those i mention above, you may try this out first before making any other decision.
Take Nutrilite Salmon Omega3 (6 - 8gel /day). After a few months, you will find your hand do not sweat that much and gives you back the warmth to your hands and feet.

There is a reason why i only recommend the Brand - "Nutrilite" for Salmon Omega3, you can read the other article on "Not all Salmon Omega3 are safe to consume"

Nutrition for Pregnancy

Nutrition is very important during pregnancy.
If you know how to take care of it, you will not only experience a smoother and more comfortable process but also you will have a healthy and beautiful baby.

The complexion, health and the build of your children depend on how you take care of your body during pregnancy. They will program their DNA according to the nutrient you take in. In another word, your baby will be small and weak if you are lack of nutrient because your body will create a baby that can live in your living environment and condition. So if you want your baby to look pretty or handsome when they grow up, take good care of your body at least the last 6 months of your pregnancy.

Also if you take care of yourself during pregnancy, your baby will be easier to take care. They will not scream and cry for no reason especially middle of the night. I have personally experience this with my friend's baby. His wife has been eating well during pregnancy, their baby look great, very beautiful skin and most important it will not cry during middle of the night for no reason.

Most women during pregnancy will experience loss of appetite and vomiting.
This is pretty common but it can be prevent or reduce if you know what cause it.
Because during pregnancy, the body will start to accumulate toxic and if your body cannot detox fully, the mother will start to detox through vomiting.

What should you do?
1) Reduce the toxic intake - avoid smoking, alcohol, deep fried & oily food, process food and "Junk" food.
2) Strengthen and lessen the load for your Liver - Vitamins like B-complex, C Bioflavonois and Garlic & Licorice are important.
3) Help your liver to repair better - Protein and adequate Sleep are important.
4) Drink at least 8 glass of water a day.

A lot of mother like to eat sour stuff so they will not vomit. One piece of advise, please avoid all these preserved sour "junk" food. They are not healthy for the baby. If you really have to vomit, let it be. Your body is helping you, they are trying to detox so you will not be keeping to much toxic in the body.

Food to avoid during pregnancy :
1) "Junk" food like tibits, process food, fried and oily food
2) Crab
3) Turtle
4) Haw
5) Black Fungi
6) Almond
7) Longan ( Both Fresh and Dried ones)
8) Spices

Food that are good :
1) Fresh milk
2) Egg
3) Animal liver ( not too much)
4) Lean Meat
5) Fish
6) Bean Products like ( Tofu, soya bean)
7) Fresh Fruits and Vegetable
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is 3 stages in pregnancy :-
1) Early Stage (1st -3rd mth)
2) Mid Stage (4-6th mth)
3) Final Stage (7 - 10th mth)
At different stage, your body will require a different level of nutrition.

Early Stage
During this stage, you will need nutrient that are good for the DNA & Brain development of the baby.
Supplement like Protein , Vitamin B-complex, Vitamin C & Bioflavonois, Calcium Magnesium, Iron-folic are important.

Avoid eating to 100% full during pregnancy , this will increase the load of your digestive system especially the liver. I would suggest eat less and more meal. 60% - 70% full is a good guideline.

Mid Stage
This is a very important stage, the development of the baby is the fastest. The bones and many part of the baby start to form and develop.
All the supplement mention above is a MUST. On top of that, please include Beta-Carotene.
Protein, Vitamin B-complex and Calcium Magnesium 's dosage should also increase.

During this stage, avoid eating hot spicy food and drinking alcohol & thick tea. Drink more water.

Final Stage
Make sure you have enough Iron and Vitamin C in your body to prepare for after birth as you will experience a loss of blood.

Before delivering
people with little water in their water bag can drink 1.5 - 2 Litres of Water 2 Hours before giving birth.
You need to maintain a good level of energy. If the mother is too nervous to eat anything, Chocolate is a great choice of food. It not only can calm the nerves down but also a great source of energy.

How to recover from Acne Problem?

Most people thought that the main problem of acne lies on the skin... so people can go to the extend of applying anything on their face to recover from it.

Yes. One of the causes of acne is the dirt and oil that are deposit and remain in the pore of the skin.

But for those whose acne keep on growing.... the problem is no longer just the dirt and oil on the face, it is the inside.

We have two main organs which are in-charge of detoxing - the liver and Kidney.
The liver clears the fat-soluble waste and kidney clears the water-soluble waste. But when we have a unhealthy diet , lack of exercises or sleep late often, our liver becomes weak and it cannot function properly.

When the liver cannot complete its job, the kidney will take over some of the job. But the problem is that the kidney also has it's own primary job. with two tasks now to complete at one time , it cannot finish it's job as well. So what happen?

It is like if rubbish are piled up in your house and cannot throw out of the door, what do you do? You will start to throw out of the windows. And your face is the windows.

So if you want to stop acne from growing, you need to do the following :-
1) Keep your face clean at all times.

2) Avoid using cosmetic and some skin care products especially the scrub. ( A good cleanser , toner and moisturiser should be all you need now.)

3) Avoid fast food, deep fry oily food and tibits.

4) Drink lots of water and sleep early ( Premium sleeping time is from 10pm - 2am)

5) Help your liver to function more effective. Supplement of the following will help :-
(i) Protein
(ii) B-complex
(iii) Vitamin C & Bioflavonois
(iv) Garlic & Licorice

6) To improve the complexion for fairer and clearer skin, Protein and Lecithin E are very important.
