PhD LISTS FOODS THAT BURN FAT AND ASSIST IN WEIGHT LOSS.
There are over 100 foods that can help you keep control of your weight. The most popular are corn, rice, black beans, carrots, lettuce, broccoli, pineapple, celery, peas, cabbage, oatmeal, apples and grapefruit. While the list above represents only a small portion of possible fatburning foods, I advise you to start with ten to fifteen different types of foods and slowly replace your current food combinations with these fatburners.
(PRWEB) March 20, 2004 --Scientists have identified foods that actually stimulate metabolism, and, by consuming them, you have what is known as a negative calorie effect. In essence, these foods actually burn up more calories than they add to the body. For example, a piece of pie consisting of 350 calories may need about 100 calories of energy to be digested and broken down by the body. In this case, there will be 250 additional calories that will eventually be stored as body fat. On the other hand, a stalk of celery may need the same number (100 energy calories) to be broken down and digested, resulting in a net loss of 95 energy calories that the body can use to get rid of excess body fat. New evidence that focuses on how the body can actually use calories from certain foods to rid the body of excess fatand reduce weight, safely and effectively.
While there are many different foods and variations that can help you maintain normal weight levels, it is important to have some idea of the categories and the types of foods, which support the metabolic processes. Dr. George Redmon in his book, "Natural Born Fatburners" (Safe Goods Publishing) lists 100 fatburning foods. The most popular are corn, rice, black beans, carrots, lettuce, broccoli, pineapple, celery, peas, cabbage, oatmeal, apples and grapefruit.
While the list above represents only a small portion of possible fatburning foods, you may want to start with ten to fifteen different types of foods. Slowly replace your current food combinations with these fatburners. Additionally, by rotating the food combinations you can slowly shift your metabolic rate from park to overdrive.
The most powerful course of action to ensure you will succeed without diet drugs is to change your habits, not to focus on dieting. Devise a plan of action — a simple plan that will keep you focused on increasing your metabolism. For example Dr. Redmon recommends that you:
1. Dont skip meals (eliminate starvation
tactics);
2. Balance your intake of fats,
carbohydrates and protein;
3. Eat only healthy snacks
4. Drink plenty of water (8 to 10 glasses
daily);
5. Consume smaller meals (eat 5 to 6 times a
day);
6. Engage in some exercise or aerobic
activity daily;
7. Get plenty of rest;
8. Do not skip breakfast;
9. Do not eat a full meal before bedtime;
10. Love thyself – be positive – take charge.
