FAT BELLY. Yes this is the hardest to trim down...but I can show you how 😉
A little info here for you...
Know your fat belly:
Visceral fat - inner fat
These are those wrapped around your internal organs that cannot be dissolved with just exercise alone. The more yiu have it, the highee risk to health complications like Diabetes and Heart Disease.
Subcutaneous fat - outer fat
These are those that you can pinch or grab. Its the bigger skin. Burn it out though not necessarily a risk factor to health concerns but more for the most-loved-to-have body shape.
BOTH FAT causes belly to protrude.
Thus we should take them off of you for a better looking and healthier you.
Who have the highest chance of accumulating
both fat:
- enjoys sedentary lifestyle or those we call sit-down people
- those with little or no aerobic exercise.
- minimal muscle mass.
- Eats more calories than burn
- The insulin resistant or diabetic
Visceral fat is definite to be a lot for those people with Subcutaneous fat. Therefore it is suggested to start shedding inside-out. Start identifying with visual inspection and be aware that waist measure of 40in for men denotes high amount of those internal fat, 35in for women. An MRI procedure can give you exact measure if you need one but this outright measure can already be your prompt to start losing.
How? I can guide you through dietary counseling what amount of food, movement and the safest and most effective supplement that can surely put you back on track as you were in high school or better 😉
Who does not experience acidity? It is a normal occurrence that we suffer at least once in our lives. Since it is a natural reaction of our body to secrete acid every time there is food to digest, we all have acid in our stomachs. The problem comes when we eat highly acidic foods, or those that needs more acid to digest that particular food, that is beyond our tolerance.
We then suffer stomach pains and at times have gas pains. It's easy to cure it though with over the counter antacids.
But be reminded that too often bouts of acidity and prolong periods of having it can cause further harm to our stomach linings that in the end be the Stomach Ulcers we do not want to have. Advice then is to avoid too much of those acidic foods more so those that you cannot tolerate much. Acidic foods include spicy, caffeine containing, alcohol, carbonated drinks and hard to digest food. Again as I always say, eat everything in moderation.
Though at times that you already have acidity, you are advised to have Bland Diet. A post I did months ago on this is your way out of unbearable pain.
Aside from the food, there are other factors to acidity. Stress can be one of them. Therefore, live life the way it should be lived, one day at a time with no stress on what might or may have been.

If you were admitted in a hospital with diagnosis of dengue fever or probably presuming that you might have it, this will be the diet that will be prescribed to you. The same for any disease that may give your doctors reason to trace if there is any bleeding that will pass through your stools.
Therefore, it will not be good to alarm them with "possible" bleeding just because your stool suddenly turned black, or have traces of red or black eliminates thus you will be asked to avoid dark colored foods. This includes red meat (beef, pork, lamb, goat, and the likes including organ meats), dark leafy or non-leafy vegetables (swamp cabbage/kangkong, okra and the likes), red bell pepper or chili pepper or any that leaves the body in such dark or red colors.
Suffice it to say, food high in iron should also be temporarily omitted for iron makes the stool dark. Seasonings like catsup or soy sauce actually can be taken since they do not leave the body as such, nor do they affect darkening of stool BUT this tend to confuse the patients therefore wiser to altogether avoid in the food preparation anyhow, this is just a temporary diet that the attending physician should and will change the moment they are assured of the patients condition.

Standing up after eating will not give you big tummies.
True. IF: you do this all the time PLUS doing other exercises and activities to make you lose those calories you take in everyday. Standing up will make your metabolism work more than sitting down.
The reality you have to face if you want a perfectly nice healthy body is for you to take the right amount of calories for your height and daily physical activity; and for you to have ways in burning them like routine exercise and physical movements.

This has always been part of my lecture or dietary advice whenever I am on that part of HOW MUCH FOOD CONSUMPTION. I give personalized diet advice since each and every one of us differs. We have different lifestyle, different preference, different activities, different up-bringing...we are all different. And so the diet of another, does not always go with another.
BUT that phrase above applies to all. Not as exaggerated perhaps, but more like it. Breakfast being the very first food intake that which we need to face the day head-on. should not be omitted, instead taken as full meal. We need sufficient calorie intake in right distribution to carbohydrates (or as in elementary education: go food), protein (grow) and fat (glow). Vitamins and minerals should also be in appropriate amounts to help us stay in good health. Supplements needed if our food choices does not ensure sufficient quantity. Lunch to keep us going and serves as the need to take in more fuel to avoid inability of car to move on. Dinner or supper need only be enough for us to complete the day and pull through without a hunger pang to be felt in the middle of the night. And snacks in between, I give them to increase metabolism. This helps in assuring your body that all energy taken in the main meals can be consumed and not stored since there will be another tiny meal to be taken in between. This will NOT make you gain weight provided that you EAT IN MODERATION.
Small but frequent feedings are more advisable than large seldom ones.

Vegetarian does not necessarily mean its pure vegetables only in their diet. There are different kinds of vegetarian: lacto-vegetarian (veggies and milk/milk products), ovo-vegetarian (egg), pollo-vegetarian (chicken), combinations of these (lacto-ovo/ pollo-lacto-ovo, ovo-pollo, lacto-pollo) or pure vegan (veggies only). VEGETARIANISM arose as religious belief, economic, ethnic, ecological reasons or by choice.
The problem with this vegetarianism is when partaker is not aware of the risk for nutrient deficiency. Because with this diet pattern, sources to achieve complete nutrition is limited. It is then appropriate that sufficient knowledge with the food sources be gained. It is not as easy as ABC since there are a lot to lose without the protein coming from meat, poultry, fish, dairy, dairy products or all of them. One may get protein from vegetable sources but there should be proper combinations be able to get the so-called “complete protein” that our body needs. Complete protein in the sense that all essential amino acids are present; example of which are Tryptophan, leucine, valine…and many others.
Thus, before deciding to be a vegetarian, or if you are already one, try assessing your diet and know if you are consuming the right quality and quantity of food to make sure you are on the way to good health and not the other way around.

WHO, WHEN, WHERE, WHAT?
Hyperacidity, gastritis, ulcers…these pains can be somehow alleviated by avoiding intake of caffeine, milk (dairy products) and carbonated drinks, for these induces acid production that is most harmful to gastric mucosa.
It is then advisable that coffee addicts shift to decaffeinated ones if cannot be avoided totally. I personally was able to shift years ago though started with the available brewed decaf until finally tolerated the instant decaf. Carbonated drink is a total no-no to all you who have the above mentioned irregularities. Some can tolerate juices, just be sure to choose bland non-acidic flavors, and fresh juices more preferable than processed. Milk turns to lactic acid thus milk and milk products are also a concern. Luckily, there are substitutes that can be used like yogurts, soya, and creamers, artificial discoveries. Calcium can then be taken from other sources (vegetables and supplements).
As always, it is better to go on PREVENTION THAN CURE! I’m pretty sure you will agree with me here. Thus, moderation is the key to healthy individuals to avoid onset of diseases that is nice to read about but never to have!
