Cut The Fat

Top 10 Tips for Weight Loss

ONE

Eat 5 servings of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains each day. The fibres and complex carbohydrates in these foods increase the feelings of satiety, meaning you’re less likely to crave for snacks in between meals. They also metabolize slower compared to simple carbohydrates (like sugar, white rice, white flour, etc.) Herbal Klenz is a rich source of fibre. It helps to clean your colon, keeps your intestinal tract healthy, and contributes effectively towards weight balance.

TWO

Sleep it off. To be an efficient, fat-burning machine, your body requires at least eight hours of sleep a night. Studies show that sleep deprivation increases production of a hormone called ghrelin that stimulates your appetite, causing you to consume more calories than you need. Give your body its much-deserved rest, and sleep your way to a slimmer, leaner figure.

THREE

Set realistic goals. You can lose 50 pounds in a week if you workout 12 hours a day and eat nothing but celery – but that might be the end of you. Don’t bite off more than you can chew – literally. Make small goals on your way to the bigger goals. In the end. you would have achieved more.

FOUR

Boost your metabolism. Your thyroid plays an important role in weight control as it determines the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of your body. The most important nutrient for the thyroid is iodine, which is often depleted due to the high consumption of salt (sodium chloride), white flour products (bleached by chlorine dioxide), and exposure to chlorine and fluorine by-products in water. Nature’s Gift Kelp provides organic iodine that is necessary for the production of thyroxin, a thyroid hormone, which promotes weight-loss by balancing your metabolic rate.

FIVE

Nature’s Gift Chromium Picolinate provides an organic source of GTF (glucose tolerance factor), Chromium, which helps to increase the uptake of glucose into the cells. This gives you more energy to build muscles and burn fat. Nature’s Gift Chromium Picolinate also helps to naturally suppress cravings for sweet and sugary "junk foods".

SIX

Get active. Regular exercise helps you burn excess calories and increase your metabolic rate. It also helps to increase your “lean body mass" causing MORE fat to be burnt even on days when you’re NOT exercising. Rebounding is proven to be one of the best ways of staying active, especially if you’re really busy and find it hard making time to workout. To burn off 150 calories, you can walk for 22 minutes, swim for 10 minutes, run for 6 minutes, or REBOUND for only 2 minutes!

SEVEN

Don’t skip meals. Skipping meals causes your body to slow down its metabolism in an attempt to conserve calories as it perceives that during this “starvation period" limited fuel is available. Try to eat regularly throughout the day. but pick your food choices well and don’t eat more than you need. This takes a little control, considering the “eating culture" of society, but over time a little self-control goes a long way.

EIGHT

Consume more “good fat". Research has proven that replacing other fats and oils with Virgin Coconut Oil is an effective method for weight loss. Taking Virgin Coconut Oil results in increased energy, raised metabolism, increased calories burnt, better appetite control, lowered body fat mass, and reduced body weight.

NINE

Many people are overweight due to water retention, which is caused by certain drugs or excessive sodium consumption. The excess sodium comes from the intake of table salt, soya sauce, and other food seasonings. The healthiest way of combating water retention is by reducing your sodium intake and supplementing with potassium. Try to cook salt-less at home or order food with “less or no salt" when you’re eating out. Nature’s Gift K-Salt provides an excellent source of natural potassium.

TEN

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly. Your body only registers the “full” feeling about 45 minutes after you start eating, so you’ll tend to overeat if you gobble your food only to get that “bloated” feeling later on.

Last but not least…

BE POSITIVE and NEVER GIVE UP! The better you feel about yourself and the longer you stick with a weight loss plan, the faster and easier it is to lose weight!
