Sensible Slimming

SENSIBLE SLIMMING WITH NUTRITION

Who wants to be average with their health?

Sensible slimming with nutrition is fun and simple.

It is not just about which food makes the difference. It's about the kind of food choices that make you feel good.

The human body is designed to run on complex natural whole foods that release their nutrients slowly to nourish the body.

Slow release action produces a more consistent energy level and longer relief from hunger. This process gives the body a better chance to use up food rather than turning it into fat.

These foods include raw cereal grasses, whole grains, beans, lentils, vegetables and fruits - preferably organically grown.

Perhaps these food choices are not on your list of favourite foods, yet. But the interesting thing is that when you start to feel good and are enjoying more energy and vitality in your normal daily routine, your creative side emerges making food choices a whole new experience.

Sensible slimming with nutrition is for people who want optimal health long term.

The alkaline/acid connection

When a body is in an acidic condition, it is more likely to succumb to illness than one that is more alkaline.

Roughly 80 percent of our diet should come from alkaline-forming foods and 20 percent from acid-forming foods.

When foods are metabolized by the body, a residue called 'ash'  is left  which influences the acidity or alkalinity.

A quick rule of thumb to find out  which foods to chose to keep your body more alkaline is that almost all cooked food is acid forming, and almost all raw food is alkaline.

The majority of people who are over weight have acidic bodies, so the first thing to consider is how to include more raw food into your body.

A simple choice is to include S.A.F.E's low calorie, nutrient rich Green Barley into your daily routine. This product is known to alkalize the body quickly.

For most people losing weight isn't easy in the beginning, as it takes discipline, i.e. watching the quality and quantity of food going into their mouths and taking some exercise daily.

To avoid hardship people latch on to ‘quick fix’ fad diets, swallowing flavoured 'fast fat burner' shakes, going on to pharmaceutical drugs, opting for stomach stapling surgery or any other way or diet to reduce their extra pounds.

Those that go on to fad diets or 'fat burner' shakes don't often stick to them long term because of the constant discomfort of hunger pains, or watching others eat 'normal' meals. The majority revert back to old habits and food choices once the targeted weight loss has been achieved.

Those who opt for drugs can suffer side effects and surgery can be dangerous, as well as prevent a high percentage of essential nutrients from being assimilated normally by the digestive system after the operation.

Part of the problem is that we are constantly being told that this new diet is better than the one that was best last month. There is no continuity or support for what we should be eating.

And food manufacturers, fast food chains, most cafe food, many restaurants and sweet manufacturers make their over processed, over cooked, over flavoured fatty food look and sound so good that temptation can sometimes over take even the most determined dieter.

But there are ways that can help make the discipline easier and help you stay on target by reducing hunger pangs and cravings that often ruin the best of intentions! 

The best way to begin a weight management programme is to make it fun! Once you have made the decision to alter your lifestyle, make feeling good your goal.

This will encourage you to learn more about the food you are consuming, plan what new clothes you can wear, consider what new sports you can participate in or what hobbies are open to you now, find out how colourful and attractive you can make your meals or what vegetables and fruits you can grow yourself, etc. The new options are endless.

The other thing to remember is that the kilos you shed first will be mostly body fluid - not body fat. Body fluid will replace itself quickly.

And sometimes when you start on a weight loss exercise, you may also find you are experiencing headaches or some other aches and pains in your body for a few days. (If symptoms persist, see your preferred professional health practitioner or contact one of S.A.F.E.'s qualified naturopaths for FREE product advice - see information below.)

This usually means that the toxins, which are stored in your fat cells are now flowing out into your body which is objecting to the increased work load!

Most toxins that your liver can't process on a daily basis are sent into the fat cells. When you start to lose weight, the toxins no longer have a safe haven to hide in so emerge out of their cubby holes.

To help alleviate this process, drink at least 8 glasses of clean water per day to help your body flush these toxins out through your drainage organs.

Once you have decided to go on to a sensible slimming with nutrition exercise, it is best to begin by having 5-6 small meals each day to help keep cravings and mood swings under control.

Organic unadulterated whole foods have formed the basis of the human diet through the ages. It has only been since the 1920s that we have been subjected to unhealthy food processing and countless man-made chemicals in food and in the environment.

Try to include more organically farmed products into your diet.

S.A.F.E. has made this option very easy with its large range of affordable nutrient rich, low calorie, concentrated green 'raw' organic whole food Cereal Grasses

Choose the one of your choice and enjoy better nutrition to help increase your vitality and well being.

These mineral and vitamin rich whole foods also help to control cravings, mood swings and hunger pangs.

There are so many ways you can enjoy cereal grasses in smoothies with fresh fruit or sprinkled over your favourite cereal.

S.A.F.E. has also introduced a range of nutritional herbal products to support your body during a sensible slimming with nutrition programme, which can over time achieve visible results that will help keep you motivated as you receive compliments from work mates, friends and family.

Consistent weight loss planned over a period of time using organic 'live' green and herbal nutrition is sensible and enjoyable

Gradual weight reductions with positive feelings of energy are more likely to become a permanent life commitment, than a quick loss which can bring on feelings of fatigue and depression.

Some food suggestions to aid sensible slimming with nutrition…

1)      Include into your everyday routine one of S.A.F.E.'s cereal grasses, combined with S.A.F.E.'s Citramin, an organic plant based colloidal mineral concentrate; pure Evening Primrose Oil and/or Omega Complex Combination full of essential fatty acids.

2)   For faster results, combine the above products with your choice of S.A.F.E.'s specially formulated herbal extracts listed below, .

3)      Increase your intake of fresh raw fruits, vegetables (organically grown if possible) and clean water each day;

4)     Radically reduce simple carbohydrates (sugar, white flour, instant noodles, pasta, etc.) and avoid black tea, coffee, fried foods and dairy products;

5)      Learn about simple food combining, i.e. not mixing carbohydrates with animal protein at the same meal.

6)   Remove wheat from your diet, if possible, and use whole non-gluten grains, particularly if you suspect you have an intolerance to gluten.

7)   A good daily menu will consist of 5-6 small meals, including snacks.

 Snacks can consist of :

• a small handful of nuts and seeds (raw),

• a piece of fresh fruit, e.g.

• an apple, pear, plum, banana, etc.,

• raw vegetables (e.g. carrots or celery dipped in humus, guacomoli, etc.),

• Miso or avocado spread on a rice cake, etc.

AND DON'T FORGET TO EXERCISE!

Simply going for a 20-30 minute walk everyday is as important as supplying your body with the best nutrition.

BETA CHITOSAN

Fish harvested from Australia’s pristine waters, processed naturally

Beta Chitosan is a dietary substance which can effectively reduce the absorption of unwanted fat in the diet. It is taken from the cartilage of squid left over from the culinary sector.

Beta Chitosan is a soluble fibre that acts like a kind of magnet for fat and other high calorie substances introduced into the digestive tract. The result is a huge reduction in the level of dangerous fats and a reduction in cholesterol and triglyceride blood plasma levels which contribute to obesity and cardiovascular disease.

Avoid Beta Chitosan before consuming your essential fatty acid products. Essential fatty acids are good oils that help to move stored fats out of adipose tissues.

NB: Beta Chitosan is great to have on hand for that unavoidable occasion when you cannot avoid eating high calorie food. Beta Chitosan can also be applied to cuts to inhibit fibroblasts (scar forming tissue).
