Diet Tricks

2010-11-30T06:54:00.001-08:00

Tape a picture of your skinny self to the refrigerator for inspiration. Remind yourself what you can look like.
Tape a picture of your fat self to the refrigerator for motivation. Remind yourself what you don’t want to look like.
Limit head-on visions. Do a “Miss America,” and stand at an angle that presents a three-quarter body profile.
Don’t keep up with the Joneses. Take one bite of food for every two your dining companion takes.
“Boost” your sandwiches with lettuce, tomato, sprouts, cucumber slices, bell peppers, and other fresh veggies. Along with the bigger crunch, you’ll get a bigger sandwich with few additional calories and no extra fat.
Take a shower or bath when a food craving strikes. It will relax you, and keep your whole body occupied and out of trouble (i.e., the kitchen) until the craving fades.
Phone a talkative friend when a food craving strikes. Call from a corded phone outside the kitchen, and stay on until the craving fades.
Brush your teeth, floss, gargle, or chew a stick of gum immediately after your meal to stop yourself from eating more.
Stand near fatter people. They make you look thinner.
To add length to round faces, part hair on the side, in a silky straight down do, or in an upsweep. Keep bangs on the wispy side, if you wear them, to avoid a face-broadening horizontal line.
Smash your trash. When you throw food away, thoroughly bury it under more trash so there will be absolutely no question of changing your mind. No need to explain.
Computer-enhance a photo of yourself to see how great you’ll look when you’re slim. Never mind liposuction: Today’s computer technology lets you delete double chins and narrow your waistline with the touch of a keystroke. Print out a copy and keep it in your purse.
Chew sugarless gum while you prepare meals. It’ll keep you from tasting (eating) that extra serving’s worth.
Cross your legs at your ankles. Your thighs and calves will look slimmer.
Drink a tall glass of water before every meal. It’s a healthy way to quench your hunger.
Get a tan. A tan helps you look thinner
Work for your snacks. Before you eat a high-calorie snack, clean the bathroom or vacuum the house. Don’t eat until the faucets and sink are gleaming.
Have your teeth cleaned professionally and whitened. You won’t want to sully that gorgeous mouth with “bad” food.
Give yourself a manicure when a craving strikes, applying extra layers of slow-drying nail polish. It will keep your hands occupied and out of trouble until the craving fades.

The 10 Rules of Weight Loss

2010-11-27T09:50:00.000-08:00

1. To lose 10 pounds of body fat a year, you need to eat 100 calories less per day. Cutting too many calories from your daily intake will sap your energy level and increase your hunger, making you more susceptible to splurging on high-calorie foods.

2. Don't skip breakfast. Eat within two hours of waking.

3. In fact, eat more breakfast than you think you should. Trade in some of your dinner calories for more calories at breakfast.

4. Don't allow yourself to get hungry. Eat at least every four hours, and split a meal in half to make sure you properly fuel up pre- and postrun. For example, eat part of your breakfast before your morning run (a banana) and the rest of your breakfast afterward (a bagel with peanut butter).

5. Eat at least three kinds of food each meal from these four categories: breads, cereals, and grains; fruits and vegetables; low-fat dairy and soy; and lean meats, fish, and nuts. Breads, cereals, and grains should be the foundation of each meal, with protein as an accompaniment.

6. Shoot for a gradual loss of body fat. You're more likely to put the weight back on (and more) if you drop weight too quickly.

7. Liquid calories add up fast and can lead to weight gain. Minimize the amount of sodas, juices, store-bought smoothies, sports drinks, coffee drinks, and alcohol you consume.

8. Eat closer to the earth, enjoying fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Minimize the amount of processed foods you eat; they tend to offer less fiber and are less satiating.

9. If you can't resist fast food, ask for nutritional information before you make your choices (or check in advance via restaurant Web sites). Avoid any menu items with the words "fried," "crispy," and "special sauce," which are guaranteed to be high calorie.

10. Remember that the calories in the energy bars, sports drinks, and gels you consume during a run add up, even though you're running. Consume them only as needed.

zayıflamak için 10 altın kural

2010-11-27T09:40:00.001-08:00

Ülkemizdeki obezite salgınının çok büyük oranlara ulaşmasıyla birlikte, kilo vermek ve korumak için bu 10 kolay ve temel kuralı uygulamaya başlamanın zamanı geldi. Dr. Mehmet Öz bu 10 altın kuralı açıkladı:
1- Streç Pantolon Giymeyin:
Giyiminiz kilo almak için bir erken uyarı sistemidir. Kotlarınıza girmek zorlaştığı zaman, tetikte olmak gerektiğini biliyorsunuz. Streç kıyafetler giyerek bilmeden kilo almanızı kolaylaştırırsınız ve böylece vücudunuzun nasıl değiştiğinden habersiz kalırsınız.
2- Kötü Kıyafetlerinizi Dolabınızda Tutmayın:
Sağlıksız kilodayken giydiğiniz kıyafetleri dolabınızda tuttuğunuzda bu size kilo verememe durumunuzda kafanızda yedek bir plan oluşturur. Bunun yerine, büyük beden pantolonlarınızdan kurtulma yolunda ilerleyin.
3- Dört Ayaklı Hayvanların Etini Haftada Bir Kereden Fazla Yemeyin:
Dört ayaklı hayvanların eti, tavuk gibi iki ayaklı veya balık gibi ayaksız hayvanlara göre daha fazla doymuş yağ içerir. Ayrıca haftada bir kereden daha fazla, çok miktarda kırmızı et tüketen kadınların kalp krizinden ölme riski yüzde 50 daha fazla olduğu gibi kanser oranı da daha yüksektir.
4- Atıştırmalıklardan Vazgeçin:
Buzdolabını açmadan önce öğününüzü belirleyin, ihtiyacınız olan kadarını alın ve kapatın. Gün boyunca buzdolabının kapağını açmak sizi tahrik edici seçimlere ve fazla yemeye iter.
5- Akşam 19:30’dan Sonra Yemeyin:
Gece geç saatlerde yemek yediğiniz zaman ne kadar ölçüde yediğinizin farkına varamazsınız. Özellikle televizyonun karşısında yeme olasılığınız yüksektir ve yüksek kalorili atıştırmalıkları seçmeniz daha olasıdır.
6- Porsiyonlarınızı Tekrar Düzenleyin:
Tabağınıza koyduğunuz yemek 2.54 cm’den yüksek olmasın veya tabakla beraber 5.08 cm olsun. Daha büyük porsiyonlar daha çok kalori demektir.
7- Her bir Lokmanızı En Az 20 Kere Çiğneyin:
Çiğnemek, uygun zamanda tokluk hissi yaratması için vücudunuzu harekete geçirerek yemek yediğinizi fark etmenizi sağlar. Yeteri kadar çiğnemediğiniz zaman bu işlemi geçersiniz ve gerçekten doyana kadar daha çok yersiniz.
8- Komşunun Tabağına Göz Dikmeyin:
Gününüzü başkalarının sandviç veya atıştırmalıklarından otlanarak geçirirseniz, kolayca 1000 kalori almış olursunuz.
9- Cebinizde Bozukluk Taşımayın:
Bozuk parayı yiyecek satış makinesinden daha fazla hiçbirşey sevemez.
Yanınızda hazır bozukluk bulundurduğunuzda tahrik edici, bol kalorili bir öğlen kaçamağına dur diyemezsiniz.
10- Ayaktayken Yemeyin:
Oturarak yemek sizi yemek yediğinizin farkına vardırır. Yavaş yiyin böylece vücudunuz çok geç olmadan doyduğunuz zaman size haber verecektir.

HERBS FOR CANCER
[Here are 3 drugs made from 'herbs'. The cancer industry likes you to think this is improving on herbal medicine, and most weeks you can read about some herb with wonderful properties that isn't any use until they extract some part of it and turn it into a highly toxic drug, as idiotic as turning vegetables into drugs before we can eat them, but no one is allowed to think about the logical absurdities. This is one reason why atheism became the state belief system, so they can make Allopathy a covert God, the ultimate false Authority, and with Government and media in the same gang, get away with the racket.
    You can glean their real agenda by the fact they studiously ignore all the cancer herbs used by herbalists for centuries. With their latest, Taxol, they have managed to kill over 80% of the sacred Yew (that can live for over 5,000 years ¹ ---a double bonus for Satan there, humans and trees) in America, India and China. Of course, the classic cancer therapy from nature is Laetrile. They had to crush that, no patent /no money, and treating causes instead of symptoms would give the whole Allopathic game away, not to mention the main part it plays in Western covert-genocide.
    The power of herbal medicine (and Cleansing) has been exposed for all to see recently with the work of Dr Richard Shulze who cured thousands of cancer (also other so called 'incurables' such as Alzheimer's and AIDS) at his secret clinic (it's illegal for non-Allopaths to treat cancer: see), just more evidence of the value of the suppressed Essiac and Hoxsey formulas. And then we have all the herbs from China, Russia, Africa and South America like Pau D’Arco .]

[Book] Cancer can be cured by Father Romano ZagoAllopathic cancer drugs from nature
[Vinca rosea.]Vinblastine sulfate: Damage to white blood cells is common within 5-10 days. Nausea is relatively mild, but constipation and mouth sores are frequently seen. Mild and reversible hair loss, rashes and sensitivity to light are also seen. Continous infusions can lead to hepatitis.Ref: Questioning Chemotherapy by Ralph Moss.
[Periwinkle plant (Vinca rosea Linn).] Vincristine sulfate: If the drug leaks out during administration it can cause severe skin damage. It can also cause nerve damage, including the loss of various sensations and even whole senses. Sometimes it causes palsy or severe constipation, abdominal pains, and bowel obstruction.
[Yew tree] Taxol: In an early trial 40% suffered nerve damage. Many patients show a significant depletion of neutrophils. Total loss of hair is common. Other effects include nausea and vomiting, inflammation of mucous membranes, muscle pains, and vein inflammation. Rapid heart beat in many, with serious heart disturbances in some. The treatment also can destroy white blood cells, killing patients.
Herbs used for cancer:
Essiac formula: burdock root (Arctium lappa), slippery elm inner bark (Ulmus rubra), sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella), and Indian rhubarb root (Rheum officinale).
Hoxsey formula: included Red clover, Burdock root, Barberry bark, Licorice root, Buckthorn bark, Prickly ash, poke berries and root, Stillingia root, Cascara amarga.
Montagna formula: Chaparral leaves - Dissolves malignant tumors. 2. Bloodroot - Purifies and cleanses bloodstream. 3. Red clover blossoms - Antidote to cancer. 4. Burdock root - Neutralizes and eliminates toxins. 5. Echinacea root - Natural herbal antitoxin. 6. Goldenseal root - Kills poisons, equalizes circulation. 7. Comfrey leaves - Relieves pain, establishes normal conditions. 8. Ginseng root - Stimulates vital cell processes.
Herbal salves
    Dr Richard Shulze salve: Red Clover Blossoms, Garlic cloves, Poke root, goldenseal, activated charcoal, Tea Tree Oil, Bentonite clay, Slippery Elm inner bark.

And then you have all the herbs used in China, Japan, Africa and South America.
QUALITIES DESIRED IN A CANCER HERBAL FORMULAMedical researchers, unacquainted with the field, will appreciate knowing that, in designing an anti-cancer herbal compound, the best herbal formula for cancer should have these qualities:
The following herbal listing is, with few exceptions, drawn from the above listing of the herbs included in the best cancer forumulas. Carefully examining the information which follows will help you understand the attributes of each of those herbs.
1 - The ideal anti-cancer formula should attack and destroy cancer tissue. Of the herbs listed in the above formulas, here are the ones which destroy tumors.
DISCUTIENTS—These are herbs which dissolve and remove tumors and abnormal growths. They can be used as poultices, fomentations, and/ or taken internally.
Burdock root             Red clover tops Chaparral                 Sorrel                             Garlic
2 - The ideal anti-cancer formula should attack and destroy bacteria and viruses. Since there is good reason to believe that cancer may be a bacteria or virus, the formula should include an herb which is “antibiotic”; that is, which inhibits the growth of, and destroys, viruses and bacteria, and strengthens the body’s immune system.
ANTIBIOTICS—These are herbs which inhibit the growth of, and destroy, viruses and bacteria, and strengthen the body’s immune system.
Chaparral             Garlic Echinacea             Goldenseal
Also helpful would be an herb which prevented the growth of more bacteria during the cleansing process.
ANTISEPTICS—These herbs prevent the growth of bacteria.
Barberry             Garlic Echinacea             Goldenseal
3 - The ideal anti-cancer formula should purify the blood, in order to help rid the body of toxins, in general, and also portions of the cancer tissue as it is being absorbed into the blood stream.
Here are herbs, in the above list, which do this:
ALTERATIVES—These are herbs which purify the blood. They usually do this by cleaning out the spleen, liver, kidneys, and bowels. As a rule, these herbs are best used for a lengthy period of time, so that the detoxification will not occur too rapidly and overwhelm the body’s abilities to discharge those toxins. Of course, nutrition must be corrected at the same time that alternative herbs are taken.
Barberry                 Goldenseal
Burdock root         Gotu kola
Cayenne                 Licorice root
Chaparral             Oregon grape root
Chickweed             Poke root
Cleavers                 Prickley ash
Comfrey                 Red clover tops
Dandelion                 Rhubarb
Echinacea                 Sassafras
Garlic                         Yellow dock
Ginseng
4 - The ideal anti-cancer formula should help clean out the liver. This is crucial, since the blood stream sends the toxins from the broken-down tumor to the liver to be ejected. When the cleansing occurs too fast (which can easily happen if the diet and herbal formula is correct), the liver can become overloaded—and stop functioning. This is called hepatic coma, and death results.
CHOLAGOGUES—These herbs help open the bile ducts and promote the flow of bile, thus aiding the liver in cleaning itself out.
Barberry
Goldenseal
Cayenne
Yellow dock
Dandelion
Note: The Gerson Institute has found that coffee enemas are far and away the most powerful, yet safe, means of emptying the bile ducts and thus cleaning out the liver. But it must only be done when high levels of nutrients and vitamin and mineral replacement is being made! It would be helpful if, at the same time, the liver could be strengthened. But this may not be crucial.
HEPATICS—These are herbs which strengthen, tone, and stimulate the secretive functions of the liver.
Aloe vera
Barberry
5 - It would also be helpful to strengthen the organs of elimination.
LIVER TONICS—These herbs increase the energy of the liver.
Barberry
Cleavers
Buckthorn bark
Mistletoe
GALLBLADDER TONICS—The following herbs strengthen the gallbladder.
Goldenseal
Oregon grape root
KIDNEY TOPICS—These herbs strengthen the kidneys so they can work better.
Burdock root
Mistletoe
Cleavers
INTESTINAL TONICS—These herbs energize the gastro-intestinal tract.
Barberry
Goldenseal
Cascara sagrada
Rhubarb
6 - Additional flushing of toxins is also needed during the cleansing process.
LYMPHATICS—These herbs stimulate and cleanse the lymphatic system.
Chaparral
Oregon grape root
Dandelion
Poke root
Echinacea
Yellow dock
Garlic
ANTI-CATARRHALS—These herbs help rid the body of catarrh.
Bayberry
Garlic
Cayenne
Ginger
Comfrey
7 - During the cleansing process, it would be well to help soothe the gastro-intestinal tract.
MUCILAGES—These are herbs which tend to soothe inflamed parts. Slippery elm is the best of them.
Chickweed
Slippery elm
Comfrey

Cancer Herbs and Formulas

Screening by NCI of 35,000 herbs for potential anti-cancer action determined that 3000 plants have some usefulness in fighting cancer. Sacred Medicine Sanctuary offers a variety of tonics, teas, boluses, and extracts containing herbs known to be effective in cancer treatment.

Artemisia annua

Parasites sometimes die in the place where they had lived. They are then consumed by bacteria. This imposes elaborate demands on the immune system. Die off, both of malignant tissue and parasites, is important enough to warrant the use of adjunctive protocols for people using herbs to address these conditions.

Astragalus
Guest author, Katrina Thompson

Astragalus promotes adrenal cortical function, which also is critically diminished in cancer patients. Astragalus also ameliorates bone marrow pression and gastointestinal toxicity caused by chemotherapy and radiation.

Bloodroot

Where there is infection, toxicity, acidity, and various other conditions in the vicinity of the tumor, responses to bloodroot applications can take place in minutes and affect much more tissue than the actual site where the paste is applied. Then, depending on the product used and the skill of the person using the product, inflammation, pain, and ultimately scarring can be more than some people expect.

Boswellia serrata

In a study conducted in Germany, 25 patients were administered a dry extract of boswellia for one week. The tumors were then surgically removed. About half the patients had such significant regressions that the tumors had all but disappeared. They used a dosage of 800 mg. three times a day.
Chaparral

The late Dr. William Kelley believed that about 7% of patients with cancer benefit indirectly from the use of chaparral. He felt it acts as a natural chelator of liver and pancreatic toxins resulting from exposure to chemicals, medications and drug abuse, and pollutants.

Goldenseal

The use of goldenseal was taught to early American colonists by Cherokee medicine men and women. It was used in many cancer treatments by such successful physicians as John Pattison whose work is discussed in my book. Pattison began his career using bloodroot and changed to goldenseal because he regarded it as clinically superior.

Mistletoe

Mistletoe has held interest as a possible anticancer agent since the 1920's. This is because extracts derived from it have been shown to kill cancer cells and to stimulate immune system cells.

Wormwood

Research professor Henry Lai and assistant research professor Narendra Singh have exploited the chemical properties of a wormwood derivative to target breast cancer cells with surprisingly effective results. A study in the latest issue of the journal Life Sciences describes how the derivative killed virtually all human breast cancer cells exposed to it within 16 hours.

yumurtanın faydaları

2010-11-20T04:31:00.000-08:00

Yapılan bir araştırma, kahvaltıda yumurta tüketmenin, vücut yağlarının yakılmasında önemli rol oynadığını ortaya koydu.
İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi Gıda Mühendisliği Bölümü'nde yapılan araştırmaya göre , besinler içerisinde en kaliteli proteine sahip gıdanın yumurta olduğu tespit edildi . Yumurta proteini, dışarıdan alınması gerekli olan ‘elzem amino asitleri’ yeterli ve dengeli miktarda içerir. Yumurta sağlıklı yaşam açısından gerekli A, D, E ve B grubu vitaminleri başta olmak üzere birçok vitamini önemli oranda içerir.
Öğretim Üyesi Prof. Dr. Hikmet Boyacıoğlu:“Kolin içeren yumurta, beynin gelişiminde önemli rol oynamaktadır. Yumurtanın faydaları saymakla bitmez. Yumurta konusunda dünyanın farklı ülkelerindeki üniversitelerde çeşitli araştırmalar yapılıyor. ABD’de bir üniversitede yapılan araştırmada, kahvaltıda yumurta yemenin vücut yağının kaybedilmesinde etkili olduğu belirlendi. Yağsız kas kitlesinin korunmasına yardımcı olan ‘lösin’ amino asidinin zengin bir kaynağı olan yumurta, vücut yağının yakılmasında önemli rol oynuyor.”
Üniversitede 10 hafta süreli yapılan araştırmada, kahvaltıda yumurta, düşük yağlı süt ürünleri ve yağsız et gibi ‘lösin’ amino asidince zengin protein tüketen kişilerin, kahvaltılarında karbonhidratça zengin bir diyetle beslenen kişilere kıyasla iki kat daha fazla yağ kaybettiklerinin belirlendi, böylece yumurtanın farklı bir faydası daha tespit edildi.

Yumurtanın kolesterolü arttıran besinlerden biri olduğuna dair genel bir inanış var. Prof.Dr. Bingür Sönmez kolesterol problemi olan kişilerin yumurta yemelerinin tamamen kısıtlanmaması gerektiğini, yumurtanın çok önemli bir besin kaynağı olduğunu belirtti. Kolesterol problemi olan kişilerin de günde 1 kez veya 2 günde 1 kez yumurta yemelerinin kolesterol oranlarını fazla arttırmayacağının altını çizdi.
