Diet versus Diet, which one is best?

There certainly is allot of debate over which diet is best for fat reduction. First of all, the word diet has gotten a bad rap. The word simply means; the foods one eats on a regular basis. However the word diet for most people brings up thoughts of starvation, deprivation and unsatisfactory long term results. So maybe we should just forget about the word diet and all of the next miracle fad diets that come along. Therefore the answer to the question is, none of them. No particular restrictive diet works for everyone and long term they are all unhealthy for everyone. Restrictive diets can and usually do create nutrient deficiencies, cravings and unhappy people. So eventually most dieters try and satisfy these deficiencies and cravings by bingeing on very unhealthy foods that pack on even more fat.

Bio-Chemical Difference

There is no one best eating program that suits everyone. Everyone is bio-chemically unique and thus requires a unique eating strategy. We each have certain health challenges, certain foods that our bodies can't properly digest or that may cause an allergic reaction.
We all have certain nutritional deficiencies that upset our hormonal balance which can lead to fat storage. One of the primary ways to know what foods may be best for you is to determine your metabolic type. A qualified health care practitioner can test for any nutritional deficiencies and for your metabolic type. This information will help you to choose the foods that best suit your current health status and type of metabolism. You might also consult the book "Eat Right for Your Body Type" for some more ideas.

General Eating Tips

• Eat a balanced diet of proteins, fats and carbohydrates
• Eat real food grown by Mother Nature. Vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and lean animal products, raised naturally without hormones.
• Eat at least 50% of your food raw.
• Eat several small meals throughout the day
• Eat slowly and chew your food well.
• Avoid refined sugars sweets and processed packaged foods
• Do not eat at least 3 hours before sleeping

g3 Benefits, Clinical Studies and Media Recognition

g3™ Superfruit blend contains so much good stuff that this doesn't do it justice!
So here are the top 26 reasons to drink g3.

Gac Fruit
For centuries this fruit has been known and used by practitioners of folk medicine to increase energy and enhance longevity.

It promotes health in muscles and joints protecting and strengthening vital tissues.

From the aril of the fruit comes Lycopene (the quantity of lycopene is ten-fold higher than known in any other lycopene rich foods), which aids prostate health, and strengthens the cardiovascular system.

The plant has phyto-ceuticals also called Pro-Vitamin A, Carotenoids and Retinol. Pro Vitamin could be called a Pre-Vitamin. It helps the body's chemical reactions in the formation of other necessary vitamins.
GAC nutraceuticals strengthen the immune system and have been noted to help in the deficiencies of wide spread infirmities.

It aids the immune system and general health of the body because these active compounds help the absorption and transport of beta-carotene.

The GAC oil has been used for pregnant and lactating women.

The GAC vitamins and lycopene are highly "bio-available", making absorption easy and the elemental compounds useful.



Cili Fruit

It promotes epidermal health – both in strengthening cells and aiding in the conversion of sunlight to Vitamin D.

Antioxidants contained in this fruit are “anti-aging,” and help the body’s cells age more successfully. The Cili Fruit has restorative antioxidants. Cili is noted for its antioxidants in the cancer prevention arena. It has a notably high content of quality Vitamin C.

In folk medicine, this fruit is noted for its help in vitality and all general health areas.


Chinese Lycium


It helps the eyes – cataracts, glaucoma, and visual acuity. This berry contains a complete array of antioxidants carotenoids including beta-carotene and zeaxanthin. In fact, Goji Berry has the highest source of carotenoids in all known foods. Beta-carotene is best known as a nutrient for the retina.
Chinese Lycium also helps with cancer. Acetone extract from Wolfberry inhibits gene mutation. Some scientists say the fruit is a good supplement to prevent liver cancer. Also, studies show objective regression of cancer in patients with malignant melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, colorectal cancer, lung cancer and others. Results also indicated Lycium Barbarum Polysaccharide (LBP) may be used as an adjuvant in the biotherapy of cancer.

Wolfberry “.. may help slow the aging process.” Studies on seniors in China produced amazing results – many people live beyond 100 years of age in Goji growing areas. Increases in Super Oxidant Dismutase (SOD) and hemoglobin were found in the serum of all participants.

Goji Berry helps lower blood sugar – and in many tests at least stabilizes blood sugar. This berry has four polysaccharides – complex carbohydrates with very heavy molecular weights. These polysaccharides are bioactive, also called glycans.

The berry strengthens cell walls (again, against Free Radical attacks) thus promoting better communication between cells. It also strengthens the brain’s neuro-transmitters against pervasive Free Radical activity, thus promoting benefits against dementia and other forms of memory loss.

It provides powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial action because it contains solavetivone (an amino acid). Properties in this berry contain Beta-Sitosteral, a remarkable anti-inflammatory.

This berry is high in protein (more than whole wheat) which is an essential cellular building block.

The Wolfberry increases overall health performance, including sexual responses – for a healthier romantic life. One herbalist wrote, “Wolfberry can make a young wolf out of an old man.”

Dubbed, “A complete body health motivator,” the berry has four unique polysaccharides, not found in any other plant on the planet.






Siberian Pineapple
For centuries this berry has been used to increase energy levels.
The berry heals wounds and protects skin against harmful nerve damage.

It aids in the battle against cancer and helps strengthen the immune system to protect the cells and fight the onslaught of Free Radicals.

It helps to prevent heart disease and strokes. It also aids in the stabilization of blood pressure and strengthens overall vascular health.

Promotes immune system function, including benefits for digestion, the liver and prostate.

Health topics - Obesity

 

Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health. A crude population measure of obesity is the body mass index (BMI), a person’s weight (in kilograms) divided by the square of his or her height (in metres). A person with a BMI of 30 or more is generally considered obese. A person with a BMI equal to or more than 25 is considered overweight.

Overweight and obesity are major risk factors for a number of chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Once considered a problem only in high income countries, overweight and obesity are now dramatically on the rise in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in urban settings.

What are overweight and obesity?

Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health.

Body mass index (BMI) is a simple index of weight-for-height that is commonly used to classify overweight and obesity in adults. It is defined as a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of his height in meters (kg/m²).

The WHO definition is:

• a BMI greater than or equal to 25 is overweight
• a BMI greater than or equal to 30 is obesity.

BMI provides the most useful population-level measure of overweight and obesity as it is the same for both sexes and for all ages of adults. However, it should be considered a rough guide because it may not correspond to the same degree of fatness in different individuals.

Facts about overweight and obesity

Overweight and obesity are the fifth leading risk for global deaths. At least 2.8 million adults die each year as a result of being overweight or obese. In addition, 44% of the diabetes burden, 23% of the ischaemic heart disease burden and between 7% and 41% of certain cancer burdens are attributable to overweight and obesity.
Some WHO global estimates from 2008 follow.

• 1.5 billion adults, 20 and older, were overweight.
• Of these 1.5 billion overweight adults, over 200 million men and nearly 300 million women were obese.
• Overall, more than one in ten of the world’s adult population was obese.

In 2010, around 43 million children under five were overweight. Once considered a high-income country problem, overweight and obesity are now on the rise in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in urban settings. Close to 35 million overweight children are living in developing countries and 8 million in developed countries.
Overweight and obesity are linked to more deaths worldwide than underweight. For example, 65% of the world's population live in countries where overweight and obesity kill more people than underweight (this includes all high-income and most middle-income countries).

What causes obesity and overweight?

The fundamental cause of obesity and overweight is an energy imbalance between calories consumed and calories expended. Globally, there has been:

• an increased intake of energy-dense foods that are high in fat, salt and sugars but low in vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients; and
• a decrease in physical activity due to the increasingly sedentary nature of many forms of work, changing modes of transportation, and increasing urbanization.

Changes in dietary and physical activity patterns are often the result of environmental and societal changes associated with development and lack of supportive policies in sectors such as health, agriculture, transport, urban planning, environment, food processing, distribution, marketing and education.

What are common health consequences of overweight and obesity?

Raised BMI is a major risk factor for noncommunicable diseases such as:

• cardiovascular diseases (mainly heart disease and stroke), which were the leading cause of death in 2008;
• diabetes;
• musculoskeletal disorders (especially osteoarthritis - a highly disabling degenerative disease of the joints);
• some cancers (endometrial, breast, and colon).

The risk for these noncommunicable diseases increases, with the increase in BMI.
Childhood obesity is associated with a higher chance of obesity, premature death and disability in adulthood. But in addition to increased future risks, obese children experience breathing difficulties, increased risk of fractures, hypertension, early markers of cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance and psychological effects.

Facing a double burden of disease

Many low- and middle-income countries are now facing a "double burden" of disease.

• While they continue to deal with the problems of infectious disease and under-nutrition, they are experiencing a rapid upsurge in noncommunicable disease risk factors such as obesity and overweight, particularly in urban settings.
• It is not uncommon to find under-nutrition and obesity existing side-by-side within the same country, the same community and the same household.

Children in low- and middle-income countries are more vulnerable to inadequate pre-natal, infant and young child nutrition At the same time, they are exposed to high-fat, high-sugar, high-salt, energy-dense, micronutrient-poor foods, which tend to be lower in cost. These dietary patterns in conjunction with low levels of physical activity, result in sharp increases in childhood obesity while undernutrition issues remain unsolved.

How can overweight and obesity be reduced?

Overweight and obesity, as well as their related noncommunicable diseases, are largely preventable. Supportive environments and communities are fundamental in shaping people’s choices, making the healthier choice of foods and regular physical activity the easiest choice, and therefore preventing obesity.
At the individual level, people can:

• limit energy intake from total fats;
• increase consumption of fruit and vegetables, as well as legumes, whole grains and nuts;
• limit the intake of sugars;
• engage in regular physical activity;
• achieve energy balance and a healthy weight.

Individual responsibility can only have its full effect where people have access to a healthy lifestyle. Therefore, at the societal level it is important to:

• support individuals in following the recommendations above, through sustained political commitment and the collaboration of many public and private stakeholders;
• make regular physical activity and healthier dietary patterns affordable and easily accessible too all - especially the poorest individuals.

The food industry can play a significant role in promoting healthy diets by:

• reducing the fat, sugar and salt content of processed foods;
• ensuring that healthy and nutritious choices are available and affordable to all consumers;
• practicing responsible marketing;
• ensuring the availability of healthy food choices and supporting regular physical activity practice in the workplace.

What are the health consequences of being overweight?

Q: What are the health consequences of being overweight?

A: The latest WHO projections indicate that at least one in three of the world's adult population is overweight and almost one in 10 is obese. Additionally there are over 20 million children under age five who are overweight.
Being overweight or obese can have a serious impact on health. Carrying extra fat leads to serious health consequences such as cardiovascular disease (mainly heart disease and stroke), type 2 diabetes, musculoskeletal disorders like osteoarthritis, and some cancers (endometrial, breast and colon). These conditions cause premature death and substantial disability.
What is not widely known is that the risk of health problems starts when someone is only very slightly overweight, and that the likelihood of problems increases as someone becomes more and more overweight. Many of these conditions cause long-term suffering for individuals and families. In addition, the costs for the health care system can be extremely high.
The good news is that overweight and obesity are largely preventable. The key to success is to achieve an energy balance between calories consumed on one hand, and calories used on the other hand.
To reach this goal, people can limit energy intake from total fats and shift fat consumption away from saturated fats to unsaturated fats; increase consumption of fruit and vegetables, as well as legumes, whole grains and nuts; and limit their intake of sugars. And to increase calories used, people can boost their levels of physical activity - to at least 30 minutes of regular, moderate-intensity activity on most days.
