The #1 Fat Loss Food!

Your mom was right...eat your vegetables!

Everyone knows they're healthy, but most don't realize just how extremely effective they are for fat loss. Here's why...

1.) They are very low in calories and so perfect for creating that necessary caloric deficit. You'd have to eat 20 large bags of spinach, or 5 heads of broccoli, to equal the calories of just 1 cup of pasta or 1 tablespoon of butter. So, you absolutely do not have to go hungry on tiny portions when youload up on veggies. In fact, it's almost impossible to eat too many. Load'em up! Take grilled vegetables and shrimp, for example. This is a perfect combination of fibrous carbs with protein, which is exactly what you want later in the day. A large portion that fills up your entire plate has only around 250 calories. Compare it to a plate of processed carbs and high-fat foods. You only get to enjoy 1 REALLY small, thin slice of pizza for 250 calories and almost no nutritional value, and none of the energy or protein you need. But when you focus on veggies you can eat a LOT more food, with less calories and a lot more nutritional value.
2.) Veggies are also high in fiber. This is both good for your digestion and fat loss because fiber expands in your stomach, making you feel full and satisfied. A bowl of spinach has 8 grams of fiber, about 1/3 of your daily requirement. Broccoli, green peas, and other green leafy vegetables are also good sources of fiber.
3.) The third reason fibrous carbs are perfect for fat loss is because they have almost NO adverse affects on blood sugar levels. While it's still a good idea to balance veggies out with a protein source, even eaten alone they're okay because they don't cause an increase in insulin.
4.) And finally, they're loaded with vitamins and minerals and other very beneficial nutrients, such as antioxidants and phytonutrients, that will help you look and feel better, fight off disease, and improve your overall health. If there's any one type of food that is the most helpful for fat loss, it's definitely vegetables.

Establish a Healthy pH Balance!

Glowing Skin - Weight Loss - Optimal Health



Follow The Steps Below To Alkalize Your Body and Reverse An Acidic Body Terrain

Achieving and maintaining a proper pH balance in your body is vital to your health and well-being. In its natural state, the pH of the body is slightly alkaline. It must maintain this slightly alkaline state for your very survival, and has developed complex mechanisms to ensure that this balance is maintained. Most of us are natural alkaline producers in our early years. This is why many children can get away with eating an imbalanced diet and still be healthy and slender right up until they are in their twenties.

But as we reach our thirties and forties, the majority of us have become overly acidic. That's because nearly everything we are exposed to - foods, environmental toxins, even stress - contribute to an acidic condition in our bodies, and our natural buffer systems become less efficient over time at neutralizing that acid. We go from being in a more or less continuous alkaline state to having chronic excess acidity.

Having pH balance has the following benefits:
*An imbalanced pH affects all cellular activity in the body.
*Normalizes insulin and body weight
*Maintains proper cholesterol levels
*Promotes proper electrolyte activity and efficient heart function
*Normalizes blood pressure
*Protects against premature aging of the body and skin
*Promotes energy
*Promotes bone health, digestive health, and healthy immunity

An imbalanced body pH can be at the root of many common symptoms such as weight gain, constipation, digestive problems, heartburn, headaches, frequent colds, fatigue, bad skin and sleeplessness, just to mention a few.

Is it easy to reach balanced pH?
YES! Understand the Importance of Drinking Good Water:

Water is the driving force behind all forms of life. Our bodies are over 70 percent water and all of our body fluids contain it. Even the food we eat is predominantly made of water. Water adjusts the body's temperature and through urination and perspiration rids the body of toxins. Health authorities recommend that we drink at least 64 ounces (8 glasses) of water per day to attain proper hydration. Most of us are dehydrated and dehydration can lead to great physical impairment. Dehydration is especially prevalent among men and women over forty years of age. For the body to function properly, it is imperative that it be properly hydrated.
Drinking enough water is vital, but it is important to know the type of water we are drinking. Tap water is treated with many chemicals like chlorine and fluoride, which are toxins to the body. Many people drink spring water or bottled water, which is often purified through reverse osmosis, or distillation. However, many of the bottled waters on the market we have tested were actually acidic, as is distilled water. This is because when the minerals are removed the water loses its alkalinity.

The best water to drink is alkalized or ionized pH balanced water, which is produced by running normal filtered water over a positive (anode) and a negative (cathode) electrode. It's that simple!

I personally use and recommend the NaturScience’s Alkalark water bottle to pH balance all the water I drink. It's affordable and easy to use!
