Increase Metabolism naturally; Remedies for Diabetes

About Diabetes:
Diabetes is among the most debilitating of lifestyle diseases, often the precursor to many other types of health disorders such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases and chronic illnesses of the eye. Most diabetics tend to depend upon taking medications, many of which include hormone supplementation injections and drugs for controlling the sugar levels. Though these aids are often critical for managing cases where diabetes seems to have turned into an incurable condition, it is always better to seek natural cures. These natural remedies don’t put forth the kind of side-effects associated with stronger medications and can be resourced from our everyday supplies

What is Metabolism?
Metabolism is something that is important when it comes to losing weight as individuals who have higher metabolism rate tend to lose weight easier and faster.
Metabolism is the amount of energy (calories) your body burns to maintain itself. Whether eating, drinking, sleeping, cleaning etc.
Metabolism plays a very important role in weight loss. Many people follow fasting to lose weight, but regular fasting slow down body metabolism and cause your blood sugar levels to raise due to stress fasting plays on your body. Whereas metabolic fasting provides nutrients to your body, it needs to stimulate your metabolism to your body into calorie burning mode.
And remember dieting without any consultation may harm to your body's metabolism systems permanently. So I appeal to you to always keep in touch with a nutrition expert.

Different Ways to Increase Metabolism:
  • Drinking Water:
Water is the most important thing you can give your body, especially when you’re regularly exercising.  Drinking plenty of water helps to boost metabolism by helping your organs work more efficiently.  Drinking an adequate amount of water will prove to aid your weight loss because it is a natural appetite suppressant that banishes bloat by flushing out sodium and toxins from your body.  Everyone should drink at least 8 cups of water every day.
  • Grapefruit:
According to researchers there are some huge advantages of adding grapefruit to your diet.
Although the “grapefruit diet” isn’t the healthiest way to go about losing weight, incorporating grapefruit into your diet may help boost your metabolism and works to reduce the insulin levels in your body. Insulin is what tells your body to store fat.

  • Peppers:
Spicy foods can also boost metabolism of body. Especially those loaded with jalapenos, cayenne pepper and curry spices. Because of these types of peppers & spices that contain capsaicin – chemical, it helps to produce more stress hormones. These hormones help to increase metabolism to your body.
  • Green Tea:
Weight Loss Green Tea is unique and effective way to lose weight. It works synergistically to increase the metabolic rate. An increased metabolism is one key factor to sustained weight loss. Without a faster metabolism, weight loss is a battle.
  • Oatmeal:
Oatmeal is richness of soluble fiber which is extremely good for the human body especially for heart, which helps to lower cholesterol. It has plenty of nutrients that will provide you with the energy you need to make it through the day.  Be sure to go for steel cut oats or rolled oats, instead of instant oatmeal to get the most benefit out of it.

Benefits of Natural Green Tea

In my previous blog, I discussed on Healthy Foods and their Sources. Now I am going to share my experience with weight loss consultant. In last month we (me & my sweetie wife) went for holiday weekend to get relax from daily routine and our day to day fast life. And everyone has to go. In this vacation one ashamed incidence happened with me. Our neighbor where we stayed was such fantastic man elder man, he was 60+ but looks like 40 where as I am 47 but I looks like elder to him.

I and my wife spend some time with his family. On that our discussion he shared his daily workout his diet and more about his secrete behind his healthy fitness. Whereas I also use to do daily workout diet but still he looks like younger to me. Behind this séance, I conclude that to avoid artificial beverages like coffee, tea with unnatural flavors instead of them I have to use Natural Green Tea.

I would like to share this moment and benefits of Natural Green Tea that I realize to share with those my friend who are struggling to lose their weight and being fit & healthy:
Benefits of 100% Natural Green Tea:
Most of people talks about their health related activities the more advices we are likely to get. There are different versions of understanding this. We generally believe that coffee has caffeine, that harmful to health when compared to tea. Most of us like to go with Black tea just like my sweetie because of its taste but the green tea is not loved for its taste but for its healthy ways to our body. It is fact that benefits of natural green tea have been used by people for many decades now.

I also conclude that green tea is beneficial for low of blood pressure and it also helps to cure cancer. And the result is that maximum amount of poly-phenols and antioxidants continue to be retained in the green tea thus increases benefits of green tea.
  • Heart Disease: It is scientifically prove that Green Tea has huge relaxing properties that help on the coating of blood vessels that helps to keep them stress-free and thus help them resist the fluctuations in blood pressure. 
  • Diabetes (Sugar Free Green Tea):  Now a day in a market green tea manufactures like SOTARI provides sugar free green tea, it can help to regulate human body glucose levels, potentially preventing high insulin levels.
  • Weight Loss Green Tea: Green tea is also known for metabolism booster drink. Also poly phenol, found in green tea can intensify the levels of fat oxidation and the rate at which your body can turn food into calories.
  • Reduce Cholesterol: 100% natural & healthy green tea helps to reduce unnecessary Cholesterol from blood.
  • Cancer Cure: researchers say that Green Tea helps to cure cancer. Green tea can help to reduce risk of esophageal cancer and also kill cancer cells in common without destroying the healthy tissues around them.
  • Dental Care: Dentist believes that the chemical antioxidant “catechin” in regular tea helps to annihilate bacteria and other viruses which cause dental caries and also helps in clearing throat infections.
  • Blood Pressure: Regular consumption of green tea may help to keep the blood pressure normal.
So after all that benefit, I have approaches towards Green Tea to become healthy and fit. I wish in next vacation Mr. Smith (person who makes me ashamed :( ) could not recognize me..!

Healthy Foods and their Sources

Healthy Eating means choosing the appropriate amounts of foods from all of the five food groups. 

Healthy eating means consuming the right quantities of foods from all five food groups in order to lead a healthy life. The five food groups and sources are as following:
     
  • Carbohydrates
  • Proteins
  • Fruit and Vegetables
  • Milk and Dairy Products
  • Foods containing Fat and Sugar (cakes, crisps, biscuits, fizzy drinks, etc)
A healthy balanced diet contains a variety of types of food, including all the five food groups mentioned above. Regular work out also help to keep fit your health.
  •  Carbohydrates:
Carbohydrates provide the body with fuel it needs for physical activity and for proper organ function, and they are an important part of a healthy diet. But some kinds of carbohydrates are far better than others.
Carbohydrates are found in a wide array of foods— as in Berries, Bananas, Brown Rice, Potatoes, Tomato Sauce, milk, popcorn, cookies, spaghetti, soft drinks, corn, cherry pie etc. They also come in a variety of forms. The most common and abundant forms are sugars, fibers, and starches.

  • Proteins:
Basically proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids. There are 22 different types of amino acid and the body needs all of them to function properly. And Protein is required by the body for the growth, maintenance and repair of all cells. Proteins are found in wide array of foods - Grass-Fed Beef, fish especialy Wild Salmon & Tuna fish, Organic Chicken, Organic DHA-Enhanced Eggs etc.
Some of us are PURE VEGETARIANS :) yes.. off course there are also sources for veg- Proteins too as in Whole grains, Beans, Lentils, Legumes, soy products, Nuts, Seeds etc.

  • Fruit  and Vegetables:
Me as Food Technologist, I start my day with Green Lemon Tea to keep fresh. I would also like to recommend that we should have to be incorporate fruit and vegetables in our meal as well as being the first choice for a snack. Population studies have shown that people who eat a lot of fruit and vegetables may have a lower risk of chronic disease, such as heart disease and some cancers. Health benefits can be gained from fresh, canned (in natural juice), frozen, cooked, juiced or dried versions. Potatoes don't count though, as they're a starchy food.
We should have to use bananas, apples, carrots, cauliflower, etc in our regular meal.

  • Milk and Dairy (milk, cheese, yoghurt, dairy alternatives, etc)
  • Foods Containing Fat and Sugar (cakes, crisps, biscuits, fizzy drinks, etc)

Green tea catechins will also acts as a glucose regulator. It regulates the insulin level in the body and inhibits the sudden rise of insulin in the body after the food, which may initiate the fat conversion. The lowering of the insulin level prevents the sugar level rise and the fat storage, which ultimately prevent the weight gain. And, the influence in blood sugar level has proven some effect in the appetite level, also. The continuous intake of green tea is suspected to decrease the appetite, which naturally contribute to the weight loss.  That’s why a convenient diet mix is key to your weight loss plan.  A Green tea based diet drink product that allows you to use it anytime, anywhere in a premixed packet.
