Holiday Weight Loss

Health and Wellness Weight Loss Tips

Every year you put on a few extra pounds over the Chinese new year holidays. After all there are all those tempting taste treats: cookies, homemade candies, and of course rich food and drink. This Chinese new Year not only can you avoid gaining weight, it's possible to lose weight without a huge amount of sacrifice. Here are a few tips to lose weight fast over the Chinese new year..

Before attending a party or gathering, have a few bites to eat. Choose a low fat protein like peanut butter and a cracker or two. When you arrive you won't be starving and tempted to eat whatever is put in front you. And that's the next trick. Look over the buffet. Don't just start chowing down. Most hosts provide at least a dish or two that's healthy, even if they didn't intend to. Seafood without rich sauces, veggies without the dip, or fruit all make good healthy choices. Make yourself a mini meal from one trip around the buffet and then concentrate on meeting and mingling rather than eating.

Sauces are the downfall of anyone on a weight loss program. It's impossible to tell what's in that yummy concoction. Serve yourself, or ask for, sauces on the side, rather than ladled over the food. Dip salad tines in the sauce and then spear the food. The taste of the sauce will enhance the food without overwhelming it or your waistline.

Skip the alcoholic drinks for two reasons: they're full of calories and imbibing may lower your resistance. If that's not possible stick with white wine spritzers. Ask for a half a glass of white wine, then fill the glass with soda water and a slice of lime. One of the worst offenders is egg nog. It's loaded with sugar, fat from the cream, or half and half and has alcohol. Mixed drinks that are sugar based like rum toddies and coffee drinks with cream and liqueurs should be avoided as well.

Cookies seem to be everywhere this time of year. Choose your favorite kind and have one, just one. Then fall back on a handful of nuts, crunchy veggies, or fresh fruit. Apples even help you lose weight if you don't peel them. The skin contains pectin which helps you feel fuller longer.

Start every day with a good breakfast even if you over ate the day before. Studies have shown that people who eat a breakfast that combines, protein, a bit of healthy fat, like cheese, and good carbohydrates like fiber rich fruits lost more weight than those who didn't eat breakfast.

Vitamin B12

Are you suffering from vitamin B12 deficiency? If so, you should start taking some sort of supplement to get your b12 levels back to a healthy and normal level. Many individuals, at the request of their doctors, turn to vitamin b12 shots. However, an alternative supplement can come in the form of sublingual vitamin B12. Many patients recommend this type of supplement because the effects are very noticeable and the benefits are quick.

In the late 1970s, Dr. Alfred Libby, renowned authority on therapeutic nutrition and longtime associate of Nobel Prize Laureate, Dr. Linus Pauling, began to explore an alternative delivery system for Vitamin B-12. The goal was to bypass the stomach where this essential nutrient is delivered into the bloodstream, but not easily absorbed.

In early spring of 1980, Dr. Libby approached his colleagues with his new theory that B-12 could be delivered to the bloodstream sublingually (under the tongue). Biochemists and his medical colleagues were quick to dismiss the idea. However, he was persistent and they eventually decided to give his theory a try, although they were convinced it would fail.

Six weeks later the first study was underway. Shortly after, Dr. Libby's Sublingual B-12 invention was deemed a complete success-blood levels of B-12 increased dramatically.

Many people have found success with Dr. Libby's patented sublingual vitamin b12. It is the number one selling product which is sold and distributed by TriVita.

With Dr. Libby's sublingual b12, all you have to do is place the pill underneath the tongue and leave it there until it's completely dissolved. Sublingual delivery causes the vitamin B12 to be quickly absorbed into the bloodstream. The results appear quicker than the conventional way, swallowing a pill and letting it go through your digestive system.

B12 supplements taken orally and absorbed through the digestive system usually takes hours to enter your system. However, as mentioned previously, that's not the case with the sublingual delivery system. Furthermore, as we age, our digestive systems have a harder time absorbing vitamin b12, which can lead to a b12 deficiency.

Why is vitamin b12 so important, and a deficiency so detrimental to our health?

Vitamin B-12 is an essential nutrient because we cannot thrive without it. We need Vitamin B-12 to make healthy blood, healthy nerves and a healthy brain. Vitamin B-12 insufficiency is implicated in a number of common conditions: from allergies and ADHD to bipolar disorder and Alzheimer's disease. Along with iron and Vitamin C, Vitamin B-12 is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies among seniors. You may actually be protected from a shrinking brain with healthy levels of Vitamin B-12.

Even with all the positive benefits listed above, I have not mentioned one of its main benefits, that it provides increased energy levels. Many individuals will tell you that they feel more energized shortly after taking a sublingual supplement.

Vitamin b12 is very important, and a deficiency can be detrimental to your health. So, if you're suffering from vitamin b12 deficiency, or you think you are, make an appointment to visit your doctor. If he concurs that you are b12 deficient, ask him if sublingual b12 supplementation is a viable option. If so, go to TriVita's Product page, and check out Sublingual B12.

Health and Wellness Weight Loss Tips

There are a number of tips that you can use to help you successfully lose weight and hopefully achieve your weight loss goals.

As I have said before, when it comes to losing weight, the best thing that you can do is eat healthy.

Eating healthy involves watching the foods that you eat, not necessarily how much food you eat. Of course, you may want to restrict the amount of foods that you eat, when you’re on a diet, but it is more important to focus on the foods that you do eat. For instance, if you were to eat fruit instead of chips, you could have more fruit snacks with your meals than you would be able to if you were just to eat junk food.

Eating healthy isn’t always as easy as you may think. One of the first things that you should do is find and familiarize yourself with healthy meals. You can do this by researching on the Internet or by buying a collection of healthy eating recipe books.

To reduce the boredom often associated with healthy eating, especially if you are not use to it, it is important that you “spice,” up your foods and try to not eat the same meals over and over again each week.

I know you’ve heard me say this before, but it is vitally important that you include regular exercise along with you’re healthy eating plan to achieve your weight loss goals.

Exercise is important to your success, simply because it burns of calories. Did you know that when you burn calories, the amount of calories that your body absorbs decreases?

This is, essentially, what makes it possible for you to lose weight. If you haven’t been exercising regularly in the past, it is important that you take it slow. Exercise is a great way to lose weight, but you do not want to overdo it, especially at first.

If you don’t currently have an exercise plan or program in place, you may be wondering what you can do to get moving in the right direction. One of the ways that you can go about finding exercises or workouts to do is by reading different fitness magazines. Many fitness magazines have detailed exercises outlined in them, often accompanied by pictures.

Another option is to find instructional workout videos that you can do at home. You can usually find a wide variety of choices online or at your local department store. Just remember, it is important to start out slow or at least start with exercises that will be easy for you to do.

Eating healthy and regular exercise are both important components of losing weight, but there are additional tips that you can use to help you lose weight.

Inflammatory Histamines Put Out The Fire With A Powerful Team!

Inflammation can be your very best friend in an emergency, it's your bodies defense against all enemies who's intent it is to harm. This super hero for all the good that it can do in helping the body to heal, also can harbor a dark side in some cases. Inflammation that causes asthma, allergies, digestive problems, insomnia, autoimmune disorders, just to name a few.

Mankind has been exposed to pollen since day one, but over time increased toxins, emotional distress on a daily basis, nutrient and sleep deficiencies have changed the way our bodies react to pollen, and food allergies. These sources of stress have been shown to release inflammatory histamines in our bodies, and once histamines are released into our system they are extremely inflammatory.

Histamines are released on four different receptors:

The first receptor, better known as H-1 is released in the airways causing allergic rhinitis (hay fever), asthma, itchy watery eyes, scratchy throat, bronchitis. The second H-2 in the digestive system producing symptoms such as acid indigestion, gastric reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, colitis. The third H-3 in the brain, insomnia, anxiety, depression, attention deficit disorder, bipolar disorder, and Alzheimer. The last receptor H-4 in the immune system, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus, chronic fatigue syndrome and fibermyalgia.

Histamines are as stated earlier inflammatory, starting a fire in one or more of these body systems, as a result creating symptoms. The arsonist who started the fire on one or more receptors may be determined by heredity, environment, and/or lifestyle. The weapon of choice used, the match, may be pollen or proteins, toxic poisons, and the list goes on and on. Any one or more could be the ignition ultimately creating the firestorm. The arsonist always has the same method of execution, inflammation is always caused by histamines.

So how can you help put out the fire and protect yourself against histamine formation? It's time to bring in a powerful team that together help fight the formation of excessive histamines and reduce inflammation. First Vitamin B-12 can block the enzyme THF which is responsible for excess histamine formation. Since histamines create inflammation that feeds on itself in a firestorm of irritation, the nutrient betalain, the riches source found in the Nopal cactus fruit breaks the cycle of inflammation putting out the firestorm.

Try to stay away from allergens, while your immune system renews itself, and take in this effective team daily, TriVita's Sublingual B-12 and Sonoran Bloom Nopalea, let it help insulate and enrich your body.

Health and Wellness Weight Loss Tips

Are you looking for fast ways to lose weight? Have you attempted numerous weight loss tips in the past, only to find they are not very useful? This is common for anyone who needs to lose weight and doesn’t want to wait for slow progress. The weight loss tips presented here will deliver lasting results when used together, and they can be used effectively by anyone.

1: Control carbs

Note that I didn’t say eliminate carbs, cut carbs, or severely restrict carbs. Your body actually depends on carbohydrates to create a dependable source of energy, but most people consume way too many carbs and the wrong type of carbs to satisfy this need. There are many low carb diets which pretty much blame carbohydrates for everyone’s weight problems, but in the long run those programs are not sustainable. If you take in too few carbohydrates you will not have suitable energy to comfortably maintain the demands of your daily life.

If you are seeking fast ways to lose weight that will result in permanent weight loss and increased overall health, you need to learn to monitor your carb consumption. This basically means consuming carbs that your body can effectively use and which are less likely to be stored as fat. Appropriate options include whole grain breads and noodles as well as fresh fruits and vegetables.

When you eat refined bread, pasta, and other white carbohydrates you are delivering limited nutrition to your body, since the valuable fiber and other nutrients have been removed. These carbs will be stored directly as fat, especially when consumed in large quantities.

Controlling carbs essentially requires eating them earlier in the day while your body is more active. You increase the likelihood of your carbs being stored in your fat cells if you eat them while your body is resting or sedentary, since your system will not be in need of immediate energy.

2: Increase Daily Calorie Burn

This weight loss tip basically advises you to turn everyday chores and activities into exercise. You can bend your legs out into squat position while scrubbing dishes by hand. Skip and jog around the house while cleaning up or putting away laundry and stray items. Lift heavy baskets or items rather than pushing them. Do sit ups and jumping jacks while waiting on the microwave to finish. Practically every chore or work duty you perform can be transformed into a fat burning opportunity.

Obviously, fast ways to lose weight would always favor high intensity exercise beyond everyday chores, but you can always get more out of your day by turning your routine activities into exercise on a consistent basis.

Omega-3 fatty Acids

Australian scientists believe they have figured out why diets that are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids have an Alzheimer's-proofing effect on the brain.

In a recent study at Melbourne's Deakin University, researchers "have found its (Omega-3 fatty acids) protective powers stem from an ability to regulate the brain's natural level of zinc, which can prove toxic at elevated levels."[1]

Typically, Omega-3 fatty acids can be obtained from eating fish like salmon, cod liver, herring, and mackerel, or by taking a supplement. However, it's the later where many people turn when it comes to omega-3. Why? Because many people believe that the consumption of certain fish can be toxic, especially when consumed in large amounts.

Even though the researchers from Deakin University did not suggest how you should introduce omega-3 fatty acids into your diet, they did say, "we believe that having omega-3 fatty acids in the diet helps keep the levels of zinc in the brain in balance and helps prevents the increase in levels that triggers cell death."[1]

I guess the "how" is left up to the individual. Personally, I take TriVita's Omega Prime, because it's created from the highest grade of fish oil, and uses only contaminant-free fish oil that has undergone a 10 stage distilling process. So, if you're afraid about fish contamination, do not fear. You can be assured that Omega Prime is free of all contamination.

Facts about Alzheimer's disease
As many as 5.3 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimer's gets worse over time, and it is fatal. Today it is the seventh-leading cause of death in the United States. Alzheimer's disease also accounts for 50 to 70 percent of all dementia cases. (Facts courtesy of the Alzheimer's web site).[2]

If it's true what the researchers found during their study, that "a reduced incidence of neurodegenerative diseases in populations with a diet rich omega-3 fatty acids", then introducing omega-3 fatty acids into your diet is a must.

I've written many articles telling about the importance of omega-3 fatty acids, and having it as part of your diet. And now it's even becoming more prevalent, as to the reason why. The results of more and more studies are surfacing, and diets, typical of modern America - ones high in omega-6 fatty acids and low in omega-3s - are linked to higher risks of cancer, diabetes, immunity disorders, and now dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

Help protect your body from these horrible diseases, by adding omega-3 fatty acids to your diet. To learn more about the information listed in this article, copy and paste the links below into your web browser, or go to the TriVita Products site.
