Losing Weight is No Joke

Wed, 16 Dec 2009 11:13:02 -0500

I was browsing today through some online articles about free weight loss recipes and healthy diet, the language used and the statements made in these articles prompt me to clarify certain myths concerning food diets and weight loss. In one of the articles the author states that eating right and maintaining a healthy weight is not all that difficult. In fact, he adds, I am very sure most of you already know pretty well what is best. By cooking healthy meals from free weight loss recipes and participating in sports activities, you should find losing weight not a problem at all. The first thing that struck me in his statement is that eating right is not that difficult. As a holistic health counselor, I know by experience that people are addicted to foods that hurt them. This is not a secret in my field; when we are sensitive or allergic to some type of foods, our body start producing antibodies. These antibodies are released at the same time we are used to eat that food. They are released even when we don’t eat it and that what causes the cravings, sometimes headaches or feeling of weakness or dizziness. **End Summary** Topics: Processed food]]> addicted to foods]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Fouad Elhachimi is a holistic health and wellness practitioner.

Diet For ADHD Kids

In this post I am going to talk about diet for ADHD kids. As a holistic nutrition consultant I always try to find the best available natural alternative for my clients. Finding the best ADHD diet for children was as difficult as I imagined. Because my nephew who lives with me and had all the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, made it somehow a little bit easier, since I could watch his behavior worsen or improve from day to day, depending on what he has eaten or drunk that day or the day before. Today I am going to tell you about how important it is to supplement an ADHD diet for children with essential fatty acids. According to P. Halford, founder of the Institute for Optimum Health, and who has tried to develop an ADHD nutrition program and ADD vitamin program and a diet for ADHD kids; many children with ADHD have known symptoms of essential fatty acid deficiency, such as excessive thirst, dry skin, eczema, and asthma. Research at Oxford University has demonstrated the value of Essential Fatty Acids in treating ADHD without medication; **End Summary** Topics: adhd remedies]]> ]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Fouad Elhachimi is a holistic health and wellness practitioner.

Two Tips to Lose Belly Fat

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:46:09 -0500

I am about to give you some two tips to lose belly fat. I had one once but it's gone now. No, I did not exercise to lose it, I did so much sport in my teens that I hate it now. I do holistic nutrition consulting. I see many clients everyday that want tips to burn belly fat and get a fit body. Beer You know they call belly fat: beer belly for a reason. A twelve ounce can of beer contains anyway from 95 calories up to 210 calories depending which brand you drink. If you drink two beers everyday you could end up adding a staggering 420 calories to your daily diet, or at least 190 calories. Beer is filled with sugars that turn in your body into empty calories which deplete your body from nutrients and enzyme burning fat. Beer calories are the ones that convert into stubborn belly fat, the ones that like to hang around for a while or may be until the end. Instead of beer ask your bartender to make you fresh lemonade: a juice of a fresh lemon, ice cubes, and seltzer water. **End Summary** Topics: belly fat]]> stomach fat]]> ]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> If you enjoyed this article, there is more at rid of belly fat
