Apparently If You Eat Curry 3 Times Per Week THIS Happens To Your Body!

Current scientific research, reported by a longitudinal Harvard study of almost a half million Chinese men and women, showed evidence that adding curry to their diet decreased their risk of premature death by 14%. The study, conducted over a 7 year period, showed that people eating curry at least 3 times a week seemed to live longer.

This adds to the evidence from previous studies which have concluded that curry is beneficial in increasing metabolism, lowering the bodies inflammation (CANCER-FIGHTING) and combatting heart disease. In that context, the results of the Harvard study showing increased longevity, make sense.

The refinement of curry has occurred over time since its discovery during the 17th century. The spice that you will find in stores, which has a yellow-orange appearance, is actually a mix of turmeric, coriander, a variety of chili peppers, cumin and fenugreek.

Ulcers- When you suffer from stomach ulcers many foods are off limits, but bananas can be eaten without having to worry about whether or not they’ll cause pain. That’s because their smooth, soft, mushy texture coats the stomach lining and protects it against corrosive acids and irritation. Temperature Control- Eating a banana on a hot day can cool you off by lowering your body temperature. The same is true for it you have a fever.

Heartburn- Bananas are nature’s anti-acid and can provide relief from heartburn and acid reflux. Eating just one banana can immediately bring soothing relief and lessen your heartburn symptoms.

5 Easy Ways To Activate Your Weight Loss Hormones and Boost Your Metabolism

sdsddsdssdsddsddsdimage via – shutterstock.com

It’s been said that the key to maintaining a healthy weight begins in the kitchen and that it’s 80% diet, 20% exercise and lifestyle. That simple belief has not slowed or lessened humanity’s ongoing desire and search for the latest and greatest miracle cure that promises to help us shed the pounds faster and easier. People are willing to try anything to lose weight, from fasting and taking risky pills to restricting their diet and getting plastic surgery.

While losing weight can be extremely difficult, there are some basic things that you can to to naturally activate your weight loss hormones. Those are the hormones which regulate and have the biggest impact on our body weight. That way you can achieve a healthier overall balance, and weight, without having to resort to the more drastic measures mentioned above. Below are five ways in which you can turn on weight loss hormones, so give them a try and see if they can make a difference in your life:

1. Eat a Proper Breakfast. Never skip the most important meal of the day because it helps to switch your body from a state of fasting to an awake, calorie burning machine. That’s because when you’re asleep and in a state of rest your metabolism, breathing, and heart rate are all slowed down. In order to start your day off right and turn on the weight loss hormones, you need to eat a balanced breakfast. That means a meal consisting of healthy fats, protein, and carbohydrates that’s around 800 calories or less.

2. Focus on Your Breathing. By practicing certain measured breathing techniques you can speed up your metabolism and burn through more calories than you would with regular, normal breathing patterns. According to a recent study, the following breathing technique led to participants having an increased resting metabolic oxygen consumption rate of up to thirty-seven percent. What they were asked to do was breathe through only one nostril at a time, closing off the other one completely, for twenty-seven breathing cycles. This was done four times per day for one month and it was found to make that much of a difference by speeding up metabolism and activating weight loss hormones.

3. Eat More Satisfying Types of Foods. When you eat junk foods that are filled with sugar and salt you won’t feel full for long and so you end up eating even more just to feel sated. By choosing to eat more filling foods that leave you feeling satisfied for longer after eating, you can avoid piling on the pounds. The hormone which is primarily responsible for making us feel full is leptin and it can be found in high amounts in the following list of foods; oatmeal, hot peppers such as jalapenos, grapefruit, turkey, chicken and other lean types of meats like beef and pork, fish such as tuna, salmon, and sardines, yogurt (the low-fat variety), broccoli, green tea, almonds, eggs, beans, skim milk, olive oil, turmeric, and apples. Working these leptin-rich foods into your diet will naturally leave you feeling fuller for longer and will help prevent you from over-eating.

4. Aim to Get a Quality Nights Rest. By getting the recommended 6-8 hours of sleep every night, you will feel better all around. Failing to get enough sleep leads to leptin levels dropping, the hormone that makes you feel full, and so you’ll be more likely to eat more and yet still not feel satisfied. That leads to overeating as your body is looking for ways to make up for the energy it’s lacking from the lack of sleep. Studies have found that people who don’t get enough sleep are at an increased risk for a number of health issues, including gaining weight.

5. Aim to Increase and Build up Your Muscles. Working out and lifting weights is the key to increasing muscle mass. When you lift heavy weights enough times to feel a burn that means your body is producing testosterone, a sex hormone that we all have in our systems and which helps build muscle by burning fat. You don’t even need a gym or set of weights to activate this weight loss hormone. Instead, by simply carrying heavy things like groceries, packages, or even your kids whenever you get a chance to throughout the day, you can increase testosterone levels. However, doing a number of repetitions and lifting weights to the point where you can feel it, and are sore the next day, is a key factor to shedding pounds.

If You Eat Celery Once Per Day For 7 Days THIS Happens To Your Body

Celery is by far one of the most underrated vegetables. Many people assume that the crunchy green stalks are just full of water and mostly void of any real or substantial nutritional benefit. However, such an assumption couldn’t be further from the truth because celery is packed full of nutrients, vitamins, antioxidants, and all sorts of good stuff that our bodies need to stay healthy.

By simply eating more celery you can bring about many positive changes in your body. For example, studies have shown that by eating celery everyday it can help to protect and strengthen your eyesight and even brighten your eyes, making them appear whiter and more clear. In effect, this also makes you look fresh faced and younger looking. Plus, the better your vision, the less you have to strain your eyes and squint.

Below is a list of the top health benefits that celery has to offer us. The accompanying video covers many of the following but be sure to check it out for even more information on why you should aim to incorporate more celery into your diet.

Anti-Inflammatory- Celery contains particular non-starch types of polysaccharides which are believed to give it anti-inflammatory benefits. It also contains antioxidants which fight against free radical damage, which is a major contributing factor to inflammation and chronic diseases like cancer and arthritis. Furthermore, those who have ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, or other issues with inflammation in their digestive tracts can benefit greatly from eating celery because the antioxidants in it have been shown, and used, to effectively treat those conditions.

Protects and Repairs Damage at the Cellular Level- Celery contains over a dozen different types of antioxidants including flavonoids, vitamin K, and lunularin. These antioxidant nutrients help to naturally relieve oxidative stress and aid our bodies in removing damage causing free radicals, thus providing protection for our cells, blood vessels, and organs against them.

Regulates Body Temperature- Celery’s high water content and naturally present electrolytes help to regulate your body temperature by both hydrating and cooling your body down on a really hot day

Helps Prevent Ulcers- Celery can help prevent ulcers, those tiny painful sores in the stomach or small intestine, from forming because it contains a certain type of ethanol extract that protects the digestive system lining. Studies have shown that celery greatly increases amounts of gastric mucus in the stomach lining which is vital in the protection against ulcers, rips and tears. This is especially true for people who suffer from low or insufficient levels of gastric mucus to begin with.

Helps Prevent Urinary Tract Infections- Celery is like cranberries in this respect because it stimulates urine production while also helping to reduce uric acid levels. This makes it an excellent aid for helping to prevent and fight against UTIs and other bacterial infections in the reproductive and/or digestive tracts.

Helps You Lose Weight- At only 10 calories per stick it’s extremely low calorie, all-natural, and yet still full of vitamins and nutrients. It also helps regulate metabolism and fills you up, thereby reducing your urge to snack afterwards on less healthy options.

In addition, celery has been proven to help lower cholesterol, prevent high blood pressure, and protect our livers against fat build up. It may even help to protect us from certain types of cancers but the research in that area is on-going and more studies in that area are needed. The video goes over all these points in greater detail so check it out and remember to stock up on celery the next time you go to the store!

The 7 Easiest Ways To Get Rid Of Side and Back Fat. #5 Is The Best.

2f32f323f3f3f2322f3233223fimage via – shutterstock.com 

There are several different types of body fat but one is far and away the absolute worst kind; belly fat. That’s because people who have excess abdominal fat around their sides, back, and waistlines are at a much greater risk for developing a number of serious health issues like diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease.

Also known as visceral fat (other alternatives include spare tire or beer gut) abdominal fat is located deeper in the body where it mushes up against, and sometimes even covers, organs. When this occurs the fat may end up causing bad things to happen as it leads to inflammation and interference with proper organ function. Men in particular are at an increased risk for accumulating abdominal visceral fat, but many women are also at risk for it as well. Those with excess fat located anywhere in the mid-section region need to be aware of the dangers it poses and do their best to cut down on it.

Love handles and back fat are equally as damaging to health and wellness, yet for many people those areas and the stomach are the hardest to trim down and tone up. While there is no magic cure, there are some tricks you can use to your advantage which make the process easier and the results more pronounced. Exercising and balanced nutrition are still the key to losing weight and getting in shape, but there are other things you can be doing to help your body.

The accompanying video covers ten scientifically based home remedies that are useful for targeting and removing belly, side, and back fat. Some of them are covered below, but be sure to check out the video for more information and the rest of the tips!

Apple Cider Vinegar- This is a beloved, go-to drink for body builders and fitness fanatics. Drinking one glass of water mixed with 1-2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar before meals will help to both regulate sugar levels and make you feel full. That way you don’t overeat and will have less cravings!

Garlic- Garlic is well known for the health benefits it can provide our bodies with. The potent bulbs can reduce both body fat and bad cholesterol, while also improving good cholesterol levels. The following recipe is for a tummy flattening, toxic cleansing, garlic-based health tonic; Combine the juice from one lemon with 3 garlic cloves in one cup of warm water. On an empty stomach, chew up and eat the garlic cloves and drink the lemon water. This can be done every morning daily or until you see results.

Lemon Juice- Fresh lemon juice is excellent for boosting metabolism and putting our bodies into fat burning mode. It also aids digestion and keeps us regular! Combine the juice from one lemon with one cup of warm water, add a dash of honey, stir well, and drink it on an empty stomach.

Cinnamon- This spice can help your body burn fat and it’s easy to work into your diet. To make a quick and easy cinnamon-based tonic simply mix ½ teaspoon of powdered cinnamon into one cup of warm water and add a dash of honey. Allow the drink to sit for several minutes before drinking and make sure that you stop before you reach the bottom where all of the settled cinnamon accumulates.

Watermelon- It is full of vitamins. The watermelon doesn’t have a lot of calories and is mostly water. It fills you up quickly without forcing you to over eat. The Watermlon has tons of Vitamin C which increases the health of your skin and total health.

Green Tea- It’s not just a fad, green tea can really help to speed up metabolism and burn fat. The large dose of antioxidants it delivers also help you lose weight while keeping you healthy and balanced. Boil up some water and steep a few bags of green tea in it for about 5 minutes. Squeeze in one teaspoon of lemon juice, a bit of honey and/or some mint leaves, and aim to drink at least 2-3 cups of tea a day.

Cabbage- Often underestimated, cabbage is easily among the best vegetables you could eat that will help you lose belly fat. It targets and removes toxins, which help fat accumulate and makes it harder for your body to fight and get rid of. Try to work a serving of cabbage into your daily diet as it will aid in preventing tummy fat from building up.
