Healthy Diet Recipes Are the Way to Overall Health

,
Paleo Diet To Lose Weight :

The number of people who are currently overweight or clinically obese continues to grow every day, and if you find that you have joined the ranks of the millions of Americans who are trying to control their ever-growing girth, then it may be time to try healthy diet recipes in your own kitchen.

Healthy Diet Recipes Are the Way to Overall Health

One of the worst things that has happened over the past two generations it that fast food is now an accepted dining choice for most families. What used to be a treat that a family would have once a month is now a normal meal, and often times it is a daily meal. What makes matters worse is that the average portion size served at the major fast food restaurants has literally doubled over the past ten years.

If you find that you don't have time to cook, you might want to re-think this. There is always time to make healthy diet recipes, many of which you can make at the beginning of the week and refrigerate or freeze for a later date. This is actually a less time-consuming and certainly a lot more affordable option to sitting in a fast food drive-through line.

Of course, eating healthy diet recipes is not just about losing weight. Yes, you will find that when you start eating natural foods at home that everyone in your house begins to lose weight, but you will also notice an increase in energy and overall fitness. The advantages of eating foods that aren't highly processed, deep fried, or saturated with artificial colorings and flavorings go well beyond your waistline.

Cooking natural, healthy, and fresh food is much easier than you think and with the help of a good recipe book, you will find that it is some of the tastiest food you or your family has ever eaten.

Learn How the Cave Men Kept a Lean Healthy Body

,
Paleo Diet To Lose Weight :

The so-called cave man diets are pretty much on track for being good guides for healthy eating. These "Paleo" plans are similar to the diets I promote for body building because they help you get lean. Similar to dietary programs competitors use, these diets leave out unnatural and processed foods to favor lean meat, vegetables, and nuts. Eliminating foods with high caloric density will speed the process of eliminating fat.

Learn How the Cave Men Kept a Lean Healthy Body

Natural lean meat together with nuts and vegetables will always add up to a lean body. Do I have to mention that cave men never drank Cokes or ate at McDonald's?

The idea behind the cave man diet is to cater to our natural genetic predisposition. A lot of the health problems we have now were unheard of back in the caves.

This is because people had to eat natural food.

If we eat like our ancestors, we are sure to be healthier and less obese. All these things we have now to make people fat like frozen dinners, corn syrup, white sugar, chemicals, processed oils, and preservatives are at the root of our obesity epidemic.

The only reservation I have with cave man diets is that I don't think it's necessary to remove all starch and grain.

As long as the starches and grains are naturally produced, I'm OK. In fact athletes who need to expend loads of energy need starch carbs and grains from natural sources in order to be competitive.

It's hard to condemn things like natural oat meal and sweet potatoes!

Other than that, you will find that cave man diets address the serious issues we face in our modern society.

To further enhance the benefits of this kind of diet, you should study metabolism and appropriate eating as well. To sum it all up, if your food is manmade you shouldn't eat it!

10 Healthy Snacks For Weight Loss and Wellness

,
Paleo Diet To Lose Weight :

Contrary to popular belief, snacking is actually very beneficial. It helps to refuel your body, maintain blood sugar and energy levels and control your appetite.

10 Healthy Snacks For Weight Loss and Wellness

Healthy snacking will help your body get the nutrients it needs and help you avoid overeating at meal times.

Indulge in these guilt-free snacks. Remember we encourage an anti-inflammatory, low-glycemic, paleo-style diet for weight loss and wellness. A body must get healthy before it can lose weight.

1. Fruit and Yogurt Parfait.Organic plain yogurt is best. Yogurts with added flavors are higher in sugar. Instead, flavor your yogurt with fruit. Blueberries are an excellent choice as they have a lower glycemic content that will help balance blood glucose and insulin levels.

2. Romaine Lettuce Wrap With Organic Turkey and a Slice of Raw-Milk or Skim Mozzarella Cheese.

Romaine lettuce contains the highest nutritional and fiber content of all lettuce. Turkey is 94% protein which helps you to lose weight by boosting your metabolism and decreasing hunger. Adding raw milk grass-fed cheese not only adds flavor but also adds calcium without any harmful hormones or preservatives. A great source for grass-fed wild meat, game and poultry is at U.S. Wellness Meats.

3. Veggie Sticks With Cottage Cheese Dip. Non-starchy vegetables contain almost eight times the amount of fiber found in whole grains. Fiber is essential for a healthy digestive system. Fat-free organic cottage cheese makes an excellent low calorie snack.

4. Shrimp Cocktail Shrimp is 90% protein. Try dipping it in some cocktail sauce for a low calorie, high protein snack.

5. A Handful of Nuts. Walnuts are the best choice as they're rich in protein and fiber but they also contain a high dose of omega 3 fatty acids (good fats) as compared to other nuts. Healthy fats help lower your risk of disease. Omega-3s are anti-inflammatory, meaning they help prevent inflammatory diseases such as stroke or heart disease. People who are overweight are actually suffering from an inflammatory condition.

6. Celery Sticks and Almond Butter. This is a great combination of protein, monounsaturated fat and energy. Almond butter is a healthier alternative to peanut butter as it contains no added ingredients or preservatives and better fats. (peanuts are a legume not a nut)

7. Deviled Eggs. Eggs are very high in protein which makes them a great snack. My Guacamole Deviled Eggs are a great high-protein healthy snack with good fats.

8. Herring Wraps. Buy a few tinned containers in a few different flavored sauces such as tomato or tangy mustard, herring fillets are high in omega 3 fish oils. Don't but if they are in soybean oil. Try wrapping them in a few leaves of romaine lettuce.

9. Banana Nut Pop. Dip a banana in plain organic yogurt and roll in walnuts or coconut. Freeze. Yummy!

Bananas are a great source of fiber and potassium. They do have a high sugar content so eat in moderation. Coconuts have anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties and are one of the best sources in the world for MCFA (medium-chain triglyceride fatty acids)

10. Lemon Tuna Avocado Snack. Halve an avocado and scoop out the flesh. Mix with lemon juice and tuna. Serve in the shells. Good protein, good fat.

Avocado's are high in monounsaturated fat and potassium. Tuna is a great source of protein, omega-3 fatty acid and is very nutrient-dense. Protein builds muscle which in turn burns more calories to help you lose weight.

And here's your BONUS snack idea....

***Smoked salmon.

Don't get salmon that's been smothered in brown sugar. Salmon is one of the best sources of protein and healthy fats on earth. Always try to buy wild-caught and not farmed raised (fed grains).

Healthy Eating and Exercise Regime For Quick Weight Loss

,
Paleo Diet To Lose Weight :

The problem with many diet plans is that they are too restrictive, too complicated to follow, or both. Diets often fail because most people find them hard to stick to for the long-term. Rather than eating to lose weight, it is much better idea to eat for health. Healthy eating is a lifestyle change that you can become accustomed to after a short period of time. When you make eating healthy a habit, you will no longer have to stress over what to eat and whether it is good for you.

Healthy Eating and Exercise Regime For Quick Weight Loss

Weight issues also become less of a problem. There are many types of healthy eating plans to follow but the ones below are ones that I favor most. Of course you should speak with your health care provider before changing your eating habits or exercise regime.

Healthy Eating Plans for a Lifestyle Change

Developing good eating habits can make life so much easier. You learn how to maintain a healthy weight and how to manage food rather than letting food mange you. Two good methods of eating are "clean eating" and the paleolithic diet. Both are similar in that they do not include processed foods. Processed foods often contain high amounts of fat, sugar, and calories. Simple carbs like bread, cereal, rice, and pasta tend to be the foods that keep us overweight.

They are often eaten in excess. When they are not burned, they are stored as fat. Think about a typical day of meals. Breakfast may consist of cereal, a bagel, etc. Lunch may be a sandwich or pasta. Dinner may be more bread, pasta, rice, etc. Desserts can be cake, pie, cookies, ice cream, or other. These simple carbs add up quickly in a day.

Following the eating plans of clean eating or the paleo diet may help you to reach your weight loss goals in a healthy way that you can stick to for the long-term.

Exercise to Burn Fat

Any exercise is better than none at all, however, there are some that do a better job at fat burning than others. Three great fat burning activities include strength training, calisthenics, and interval training. All three of these exercise routines burn fat by developing muscle. Muscle burns both fat and calories. Even when we are at rest, our muscle burn calories.

The best thing about these exercises is that you do not need to spend more than an hour working out. You also do not need to spend money on gym memberships. Combining your healthy eating habits with fat burning exercises will have you on your way to permanent weight loss.
