Morning is the most effective time to lose weight


Morning is the most effective time to lose weight
I think all of us would try to figure out what are the healthy ways to lose weight. As an exercise lover, i would like to share with you the healthy way of weight loss. This starts from the morning.

Morning is the most effective time to lose weight. Why? Morning is the time to kickstart your metabolism, manage your blood sugar and prepare yourself for a heavier workout in the afternoon. Morning is the most prime time to exercise, you are burning a higher % of your fat before the breakfast. This is because the body's supply of carbohydrate energy is depleted and the hormonal state makes body fat more accessible. A little big of effort, make a great result. Why not? 

What you need to do for morning exercise? Actually you just need to have a hour of walking, jogging, swimming. And don't forget, to  make it more effective, take a cup of coffee before your exercise may help to trash out more of your fat cells. Don't stress yourself in the morning exercise which will make you tired and sleepy afterwards, just an hour of low to medium intensity exercise will do.

After your morning exercise, what should eat for breakfast? Breakfast is a very important meal of the day. For the purpose of weight lose, you are encourage to take only protein and slow-burning carbs. This will help to manage your insulin. Insulin the lowest in the early morning but it become higher after your first meal. This means, if you overeat during your breakfast, you are comsuming more calories than you require. This will lead to the increase of insulin and thereafter have a high storage of fat. Extra fat will interfere the body's ability to metabolise carbo in a proper way.

What is an ideal breakfast? Here, you should go for 2 whole eggs for protein and whole-grain toast or oatmeal or an apple. After 2 hours you may have your snack which are rich in protein and fibre too. Then you can continue your lunch in 2 hours later. Brown rice, chicken breast and high-fibre vege is good for weight loss.Try to have some food that require more chewing. This is to allow enough time for your brain to receive a good signal that you are full and should stop eating. Bear in mind, high protein is important to speed up your metabolism and help to lose weight. 

Check out the next article for what you should do in the afternoon to lose weight.. Be mindful, morning is the most effctive time to lose weight.

Yogurt to prolong your life


I believe all of you have heard of yourt how it improve and bringing to a healthy lifestyle...
Yogurt is a valuable health food for both infants and elderly persons. For children, it is a balanced source of protein, fats, carbohydrates, and minerals in a texture that kids love. For senior citizens, who usually have more sensitive colons or whose intestines have run out of lactase, yogurt is also a valuable food. 

Let me share with you what yogurt can do to our body and prolong our life...

1. Yogurt lowers cholesterol. 
This may be because the live cultures in yogurt can assimilate the cholesterol.

2.  As a "grow food." 
The easier digestibility of the proteins and the lactic acid in yogurt increases the absorption of minerals. 

3. Yogurt is easier to digest than milk. 
The culturing process makes yogurt more digestible than milk.  In general, yogurt has less lactose than milk. The culturing process has already broken down the milk sugar lactose into glucose and galactose, two sugars that are easily absorbed by lactose-intolerant persons.
  
4. Yogurt contributes to colon health.  
When eating yogurt, you care for your colon in two ways. First, yogurt contains lactobacteria, intestines-friendly bacterial cultures that foster a healthy colon, and even lower the risk of colon cancer.  The friendly bacteria in yogurt seems to deactivate harmful substances (such as nitrates and nitrites before they are converted to nitrosamines) before they can become carcinogenic.
Secondly, yogurt is a rich source of calcium - a mineral that contributes to colon health and decreases the risk of colon cancer. Calcium discourages excess growth of the cells lining the colon, which can place a person at high risk for colon cancer. Calcium also binds cancer-producing bile acids and keeps them from irritating the colon wall.   

5. Yogurt can boost immunity.   
The bacterial cultures in yogurt have also been shown to stimulate infection-fighting white cells in the bloodstream. Some studies have shown yogurt cultures to contain a factor that has anti-tumor effects in experimental animals.

6. Yogurt aids healing after intestinal infections.
Yogurt is a popular "healing food" for diarrhea. Many pediatricians recommend yogurt for children suffering from various forms of indigestion. Research shows that children recover faster from diarrhea when eating yogurt. It's good to eat yogurt while taking antibiotics. The yogurt will minimize the effects of the antibiotic on the friendly bacteria in the intestines.

7. Yogurt can decrease yeast infections.  
Research has shown that eating eight ounces of yogurt that contains live and active cultures daily reduces the amount of yeast colonies in the vagina and decreases the incidence of vaginal yeast infections.

8.  Yogurt is a rich source of calcium.
Yogurt gets more calcium into the body than the same volume of milk can.

9. Yogurt is an excellent source of protein.
Besides being a rich source of proteins, the culturing of the milk proteins during fermentation makes these proteins easier to digest. For this reason, the proteins in yogurt are often called "predigested."


Did you know that Bulgarians who are noted for their longer lifespan and remain in good health well into old age with the daily yougurt consumption. Let's have a healthy lifestyle and prolong our life with a yougurt a day.
