A Natural Weight Loss Diet does not cause any of the
Health problems caused by 
Fad Diets or Quick Weight Loss Diets.

Besides the risk of dehydration, there are several
Health reasons that make Fad Diets a risk to your
Health.

The normal source of energy is the carbohydrate,
which has been limited due to dieting so the body will
Burn Fat for energy. So you think Fat Burning is great
but the problem is that the body can not Burn Fat
completely without the present of carbohydrates.

This incomplete Fat Burning process produces
ketones which accumulate in the blood. The only
means for the body to eliminate the ketones  is
via the urine, causing dehydration and the fruit like
breathe that is key sign that a diabetic is in danger.

If the process is not stopped the body can  go into
shock which may lead to body shut down of all the
system and finally death.

This chemical imbalance is similar to what happens
to diabetics who don’t eat every few hours to
maintain their blood chemistry  balance.

Still another problem with the incomplete Fat Burning
is that very little usable energy is produced and you
may feel fatigued and weak.

Another problem can be caused by the Fad Diets,
the wasting away of body muscle. Sure you are
using your muscles everyday so you think that will
keep you in shape, but that’ not why you get
muscle waste.

When the body goes to repair itself proteins are very
important in the process. So while you sleep the body
tries to repair it self using what resources are there.
One source of protein is muscles tissue. This is why
people loose muscle on long time fad diets. The loss
isn’t due to disuse of muscles, atrophy, or decrease
in the size of the muscle but to the body breaking
down the muscles.

The weakness may not be realized until later since
weakness is also seen with the incomplete burning of
fat. There will be an increase in energy as soon as
the carbohydrates are taken into the body but the
recovery will not be at the previous level. It usually
takes time for the results to be seen and then it may
be a major Health issue.

These are a few of the complications caused by
using Fad Diets over a long time. There are still
issues with the immune systems and other organs
of the body that we have not mentioned.

And it isn’t smart to use the Fad Diet and then go on
a regular diet, then back to the Fad Diet, thinking
that you can control the damage. Since you can’t
see the damage how can you asset what you
damage has been done? The body is very good at
adapting to difficulties without causing any great pain.

Lose the weight the same way you gained it over a
period of time. Fad Diets are not safe to use for long
term weight loss, don’t gamble on your Health and
lifestyle for a quick fix that will only cost you
your health in the long run.

Natural Weight Loss is the safe and Healthy Way
to Lose Weight.

In today’s go-go and do everything world we may not
only be fat but also tired.

How many times have you heard news reports of
people falling asleep while driving and causing wrecks?

Adults need to sleep 6-8 hours a day to stay healthy
and function properly.

The idea that we don’t sleep enough seems to be
everywhere but people don’t listen. Some how we
are missing the message.

There are four things the body needs to survive,
oxygen, water, food and sleep. Without these the
body can not function properly and becomes
Unhealthy.

Many people while working just reach for a nice
calorie laden snack – chips, cookies and candy bars,
or another cup of coffee for a quick perk me up and
return to work. But this type of substitution only
causes unforeseen problems later.

You don’t need those extra calories and what harm
are you causing to your body’s systems?

Scientist have known and studied the circadian
cycle of the body for years. When you deny your
body sleep, you disrupt this cycle.

Instead of the body sleeping and repairing cells and
tissues you are forcing it to digest food, the mind is
working over time instead of relaxing, and the wrong
hormones are at work. The signals of the body are
getting all messed up.

You are not only running down your body, you’re
also getting your hormones confused. You will
produce more hormones to promote hunger and
less hormones to give the full feeling. That is why
you are not able to stop eating and never feel full.

And bright and early the next morning you think I just
slept for 4 hours why do I feel so bad??? So you go
and add another cup of coffee with a snack to
the mess.

Next time you deny yourself the necessary sleep
remember your Health and Weigh Loss may depend
on your sleep.

The biggest emotional reason people eat is for

Stress Relief.

The mind is working fast, your thoughts are
flashing quickly in and out of your mind. You can’t
concentrate on one thing.You need to slow down,
so you eat.

By eating, you fill your stomach which slows down
your racing mind.

A relaxed feeling comes over you due to the
chemical changes the full stomach has on
your body and all its systems.

Chemicals are released into the blood stream
causing the blood flow to the digestive system to
increase , which decreases the flow to the brain
and large muscle groups.

Since the brain and the large muscles have  less
blood flow there is less actively. These actions
cause you to become relaxed and sometimes a
little drowsy.

The main purpose of Eating was to calm your
system, but you still have the Stress chemicals
floating in your system plus the extra food
which adds to your Health problems.

Your body and mind work together. When the
mind is Stressed the body will become Stressed.
By relaxing your body you will give Stress Relief
to your mind. Get up and move around to relieve
the tension in your body or take a few deep
breathes and count to five as your exhale.

Break your focus on your problem by changing
your environment. Walk away from your desk so
you don’t hear the constant ringing of the phone.

If you can’t leave the area, close your eyes and
remember a happy time you had, recall playing with
your pet, or some silly thing that happened to you.

Think of anything that will bring a smile to your
face.

Keep your eyes close while you think of a
pleasant time for a few seconds, when you open
them you will feel better.

Stress has become a part of everyday life. A
bad habit many people have, is Eating due to
Stress, which only leads to further Health
problems.
