Tips for Healthy Diet {Health}

Swathy · November 20, 2011 · 4 Comments

Dieting is not recommended to lose weight, as you all are well aware. Why? Dieting makes tissues and muscles weak and makes the body weak internally. So, the right thing is to exercise to cut down the calories. But, before that, there is another step which you should add another habit to your routine – healthy diet.
  • Drink 10-12 glasses of water daily. You can go for more too.
  • Eat dinner 3-4 hours before you sleep. And, keep the dinner extremely light. And, no carbohydrates in the dinner.
  • Replace butter and mayonnaise with mint chutney. Its more yummy and delicious and gives a flavor to your snacks.
  • Drink tomato, amla (Indian gooseberry), ginger or spinach juices.
  • Sesame seeds and dry fruits and nuts are recommended in the daily diet but don’t over do them.
  • Coconut water, lemon juice, vegetable soups, kabuli chana soup, buttermilk, ice tea without sugar, lemon mint juice are some of the drinks which will fulfill your need of liquids.
These tips will help in controlling your weight and do not resort to dieting for weight problems. Constipation, acidity, hormonal problems, dark circles, aging skin, memory loss are some of the aftereffects of dieting. So, think before you resort to dieting.

Belly Bloats? {Health}

Swathy · November 11, 2011 · 4 Comments

A very important reason for a huge belly is bloating. So, if you want to control the size of your belly, take care of the following points:

  • Intake less of salt. Salt, if taken in huge quantities, stores water inside the body which causes bloating.
  • Coffee is again one of the causes of bloating
  • Also, stay away from the natural occurring sugar – Sorbitol. It occurs in fruits like Apples, Pears, Peaches and Prunes. And, it also occurs in sugar-free candies and gum and starches, including potatoes, corn, rice, bread, noodles and any products made from flour. These produce more gas as they are broken down in the large intestine.
So, keep these points in mind and take care of the size of your waist.

Coffee and Belly Fat {Weight Loss}

Swathy · November 4, 2011 · 2 Comments

A simple way to reduce belly fat is to cut down on coffee. Coffee causes the belly to distend and hence, it makes your tummy appear bulgy.
Another few ways to reduce belly fat is to cut down on alcohol and salt. Salt retains water so causes bloating in the stomach which makes you look bulkier in the middle. And, if you want to cut down on the fat, increase the consumption of herbal teas. They help to control the weight.
