Unexpected foods to help you lose weight

It’s no secret that losing weight isn’t easy; in fact, it can be downright frustrating. Contrary to popular belief, weight loss is not just about exercising vigorously or eating a diet of solely fruits and vegetables. Whether it’s because they speed up your metabolism or because they keep you feeling full, there are some foods that can help you lose weight, despite not being considered “healthy.”

String cheese is the perfect quick snack for any time of day – its small packaging allows for easy storage in your purse or briefcase. String cheese is naturally low in calories, does not contain carbohydrates and is a lean protein, so you will feel full without having consumed too many calories. From a nutritional perspective, string cheese provides valuable amounts of calcium and vitamin A. Please be cautious, however, as string cheese often contains higher levels of sodium, it may not be appropriate for those on low-sodium diets. To help reduce the sodium content, soak it in water before eating.

Apples and pears are low in calories, yet packed with fiber, which can help you feel full and control your appetite. Furthermore, the high pectin levels in apples can help slow digestion and create a feeling of fullness. Pears contain 12 percent of your daily suggested intake of vitamin C, which research suggests can help maintain a low body fat percentage. When choosing pears and apples, aim to eat organic – they’ve been shown to contain less pesticide residues.

All-natural almond butter is loaded with protein and fiber. Together, they help you feel full and maintain this feeling longer, so naturally, you’ll eat less. Research has shown that people who added 500 calories of peanuts to their regular diet consumed less at meals and increased their resting metabolism by 11 percent. Be cautious when choosing your peanut butter: Read the ingredients and nutrition facts to ensure that it does not contain too much added sugar.

Black pepper contains a compound called piperine, which recent research has shown may increase energy expenditure and may prevent the formation of new fat cells. Before you begin sprinkling this spice on all your meals, know that this research has not been carried out in humans – more research is needed before confirming pepper’s effects on weight loss. Still, other peppers, such as jalapenos or chili peppers, have been shown to have modest effects on metabolism because of the compound which gives them their infamous heat, capsaicin.

Air-popped popcorn, in stark contrast to its cousin movie theater popcorn, contains few calories and is full of fiber, which will help you keep you feeling full. The hull of popcorn contains polyphenols, which are antioxidants that may also have disease-fighting properties. When preparing popcorn, don’t add tons of butter and salt. Instead, choose sodium-free seasonings or herbs to keep it healthy. Pesky popcorn hull, which often lodges itself between your gums and teeth, can also get caught in the stomach and intestines of those who have undergone gastric bypass surgery or who have diverticulitis, so this food may not be appropriate for this population.

As a general rule, moderation is key when it comes to weight loss: moderate exercise, moderate calorie-cutting, etc. It’s best to not make very drastic changes in your lifestyle; you want to be able to maintain your exercise regimen and healthful eating habits for the long term.

Pills made Specifically for You!

Pills made Specifically for You

Here's a dirty little secret about the little pills you pop: nearly 99.9 percent of the tablet is useless. Only a thousandth of a pill contains the active ingredients that are supposed to make you feel better.

The rest of the pill is just filler so it's large enough for you to pick it up.

If you think that sounds wasteful, you're not alone. Researchers at the University of Leeds, Durham University, and GlaxoSmithKline have teamed up to create pills that are made to order.

Making pills means literally making custom natural pills with the active ingredients made for your specific needs. That means pills could be individually made for each patient to fit their medical needs and one pill could potentially hold more than one type of medication.

Right now, medications are manufactured by the millions in a one-size-fits-all way. Custom natural pills would change all that. Instead of the active ingredients being encased to be useful for one medical need, they would be useful and address many medical discomforts. All-in-one capsules or pills.

And since the active ingredients are all herbal and natural, they act safe and more quickly. That's more accurate and cost effective than chemical pills and with the current system.

Custom natural Pills are particularly helpful to anyone who prescribes several medications. If your grandparents (or parents!) are anything like mine, they probably have one of those pill boxes to keep track of which pills they are supposed to take on which days of the week. There are some days when my grandmother has to take almost a dozen pills. Custom natural pills could put the active ingredients from all of those medications onto just one pill for her to take each day.
iBalance has made it possible for you to take advantage of this upcoming technology NOW.  The custom pills not only are natural, they are better and more convenient to consume, since they can be taken with or without food. Order your own custom pills now and indicate your specific discomfort. Ex. diabetes, high blood pressure, joint discomfort and so on here:

Kiwi protects an array of eye diseases!

what are the health benefits of kiwi
The kiwi, originally called the Chinese gooseberry and later the “sunny peach”, was renamed the kiwi by New Zealand natives after their national bird. There are over 400 varieties of this fuzzy fruit, which grows off of vines on a trellis, much like grapes are cultivated.
Kiwi fruits are rich in many Vitamins, flavonoids and minerals. In particular, they contain a high amount of Vitamin C (more than oranges), as much potassium as bananas and a good amount of beta-carotene.

The kiwi, a nutrient-dense fruit with almost no fat and only 42 calories, is more than a delicious, healthy snack. Eating two to three kiwis per day could protect you from an array of eye diseases, including cataracts, and vision loss from macular degeneration. Its mineral content offers benefits to your nervous system and circulatory functions as well. It pairs well with other fruits in fruit salad or smoothies, and you can add it to salsa or your cereal for extra nutrients. 

what are the health benefits of kiwi

Researchers exploring the potential positive features of the kiwi fruit have conducted several studies involving children and adults. A study in Italy indicated that children had less trouble with wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing in the night when they consumed 5-7 servings of kiwi or citrus fruit a week. Asthma sufferers were found to derive the most benefit from the kiwi, even when eaten as few as 1-2 times a week. Another study demonstrated that eating 2-3 kiwi fruits a day can reduce the potential for blood clots and decrease triglycerides. This study also cited the kiwi’s ability to protect and repair the body from DNA damage, which could protect against cancer.

Selecting, Storing, and Eating a Kiwi

How do I choose a kiwi?

• Look for a fruit that is plump and fragrant with no visible bruising or wrinkles and a slightly firm feel

What if I chose a fruit that isn’t yet ripe?

• Kiwis ripen quickly when placed in either a paper or plastic bag with a banana. However, once they are ripened, store them away from other fruit or they will decompose more quickly!

what are the health benefits of kiwi

How long are kiwis good for once I buy them?

• Ripe kiwi fruit can last in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks.

Can I eat the skin?

• You can, but wash carefully to remove unwanted pesticides! Rub it a bit to minimize the fuzz. The skin actually provides more fiber to your sweet snack. If you’re not fond of the fuzzy exterior, simply “sloop” it out by slicing the kiwi in half horizontally and spooning out each end to enjoy.  

Here are a few delicious snack recipe with Kiwi:

Directions

1. In a large saucepan, combine 3 cups mashed kiwi, pineapple juice, lemon juice and apples. Bring to a boil and then add the sugar; stir to dissolve, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
2. Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
3. Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.

How to lower blood pressure drug-free

Exercise and Seermust™can lower your blood pressure

Medications designed to treat hypertension do not relieve the underlying causes, and are not always effective at lowering blood pressure. Over 50 percent of patients find that medication alone does not control their hypertension.
The good news is that lifestyle changes can help over 85 percent of those suffering from hypertension. Develop an exercise plan with the help of your doctor that incorporates aerobic exercise and strength training. Start slowly and aim to exercise consistently at least five days per week.  Reduce stress through yoga, meditation or prayer.
Dr. Mercola advises cutting out foods that are rapidly converted to sugar, such as pasta, bread, potatoes, rice and cereal. In addition, he recommends cutting out foods that are high in fructose, including fruit like mangoes, raisins and grapes.
Physician and author Matilda Parente, MD, recommends the following foods as part of an overall healthy lifestyle to reduce hypertension or prevent it.

Ginger Root:

Ginger acts to stimulate blood circulation and relax the muscles surrounding blood vessels. In the process it helps in lowering blood pressure. It has other benefits as well like improved flow of blood to the skin. A pinch of ginger in your meals should help to regulate your blood pressure. However, expectant mothers should check the quantity required with the doctor.

 

 

Garlic:

This herb is commonly used in Chinese and Indian cuisine. When you include raw garlic in your diet for 4-5 weeks, blood pressure drops. It is a well known blood thinner and has many other health benefits. Read more

Rosemary and Cinnamon:

Rosemary is an aromatic herb which can help you lower blood
pressure.
Sprinkle a little rosemary leaves on your meals each day and the blood pressure will reduce with time. Although Cinnamon is used widely in India as spice, the herb is a powerful antioxidant and lowers blood pressure.


Kale, collards and other leafy greens: These plants are easy to grow in your own yard and are high in fiber and vitamin A, and low in sugars. Recent research suggests that inorganic nitrates, found in these plants, may relax the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more freely. Plant leafy greens in early spring, as soon as the soil is soft.
Green peas: Green peas also contain plenty of fiber and vitamins. Plant them early in the spring since peas tend to wither and dwindle when temperatures rise.

Tomatoes: The chemical lycopene, responsible for tomato’s bright color, is also a powerful antioxidant. Buy disease-free tomato plants and wait until after the last frost to plant them.

Sweet potatoes: Sweet potatoes contain fiber, vitamin A and antioxidants, as well. Sweet potatoes need warm temperatures and a long growing season to mature.

Winter squash: Also high in fiber, beta carotene and vitamin A, winter squash need plenty of room, fertile soil and a long growing season.

Berries: Dr. Parente says a recent study found that eating a cup of blueberries or strawberries weekly may prevent high blood pressure. Strawberries grow well in full sun and moist, rich soil. Blueberries, on the other hand, have very specific growing needs. Unless your soil is very acidic (4.5 to 5.5) you’re probably better off buying fresh or frozen berries.

Apricots: Apricots are a good source of fiber and potassium, which has been shown to reduce or prevent high blood pressure. Apricots thrive in climates with warm summers and mild winters. Avoid dried apricots, since they contain more sugar.

Bananas: Also high in potassium, bananas help remove excess sodium from the body, says Dr. Parente.

Cantaloupe: High in potassium and beta carotene, cantaloupe is refreshing alone, in fruit salads or blended in smoothies. Grow it in full sun in moist, rich soil.

Incorporating Seermust™ into your diet may do more than just reduce your blood pressure. Seermust™ are low in calories, aiding in weight loss, and you’ll probably have more energy, as well.

How much exercise do you need?

Flexibility and strengthening exercises such as lifting weights are an important part of an overall fitness plan, but it takes aerobic activity to control high blood pressure. And you don't need to spend hours in the gym every day to benefit. Simply adding moderate physical activities to your daily routine will help.
Any physical activity that increases your heart and breathing rates is considered aerobic exercise, including:

• Household chores, such as mowing the lawn, raking leaves or scrubbing the floor
• Active sports, such as basketball or tennis
• Climbing stairs
• Walking
• Jogging
• Bicycling
• Swimming

Aim for at least 30 minutes of aerobic activity most days of the week. If you can't set aside that much time at once, remember that shorter bursts of activity count, too. You can break up your workout into three 10-minute sessions of aerobic exercise and get the same benefit as one 30-minute session.
