Benefiber weight loss

The article today is about benefiber weight loss. Benefiber is an over the counter dietary fiber supplement that is available at your local pharmacy or grocery store. Unlike many fiber supplements, Benefiber dissolves in water, without leaving behind a gritty residue. Benefiber is also available as a chewable tablet and as a caplet. According to the MayoClinic.com, consuming enough dietary fiber can help lower cholesterol, control blood sugars and help you lose weight. Fiber helps to fill your stomach and keep you feeling fuller for longer than you would feel if you didn't eat enough fiber.

Step 1

Portion out a single dose of Benefiber. If you are using the powder form, 2 tsp. constitute a single adult dose. If you are taking Benefiber chewable tablets or Benefiber caplets, three tablets are equivalent to an adult dose. Each serving provides approximately 3g of dietary fiber. According to the MayoClinic.com, men under the age of 50 should consume 38g of fiber daily, while women in the same age group should consume 25g. Men over the age of 50 need 30g of fiber daily and women over 50 need 21g.

Step 2

Pour out an 8 oz. glass of water or sugar-free non-carbonated beverage. If you are using Benefiber powder, mix it into the beverage until dissolved. Alternatively, you can mix Benefiber powder into sugar-free applesauce, low-fat yogurt or pudding.

Step 3

Take the product, by drinking it, eating it or taking caplets, before each main meal, so that you feel fuller and don't eat as many calories. You also won't be as likely to snack between meals or to overeat because of extreme hunger. Benefiber weight loss can also be mixed into many other foods, such as pasta sauce, soup, and salad dressing, so it's easy to incorporate Benefiber into a healthy plan for weight loss.

Step 4

Drink at least 64 oz. of water every day. Fiber such as that found in Benefiber, absorbs water and swells to fill the stomach and slow digestion. Fiber also helps to regulate blood sugar levels, keeping you from becoming hungry due to a sudden drop in blood sugar. Water helps the body metabolize food and excrete wastes such as fat.

Vinegar and weight loss

Today we will talk about vinegar and weight loss, what is the relation between vinegar and weight loss, how to lose vinegar to lose weight so keep reading the article.

In the past, the ancient people have used vinegar to lose weight. They thought that taking a few teaspoons of vinegar before meals can help you to lose weight by reducing appetite and cravings while stimulating metabolism.

What about apple cider vinegar? Without healthy eating and enough physical activity, apple cider vinegar can not perform any miracles. But the consumption of apple cider vinegar may help to reduce body weight and fat mass, while giving lots of other health benefits.

Apple cider vinegar and weight loss: is it a myth?

It is believed that apple cider vinegar accelerates weight loss, because it helps control blood sugar levels and suppress appetite.

In a study conducted in 2009, obese Japanese reported a modest decrease in weight and decrease in appetite with intake of 30 ml of vinegar. This study led to the conclusion that vinegar intake reduces body weight, body fat mass and serum triglyceride levels. Acetic acid (AcOH), a main component of vinegar, might help suppress body fat accumulation. However, there are not many studies done on vinegar and weight loss in humans. More research is needed before we can know for sure whether vinegar has any fat-burning benefits.

The vinegar diet claims apple cider vinegar can boost metabolism and aid in weight loss. But no food can rapidly cause weight loss unless changes are made to dietary habits and lifestyle. It also depends on the cause of weight gain for each individual.

Studies show that apple cider vinegar can help balance blood sugar levels by lowering the glycemic index of a meal. It is true that the prevention of blood sugar spikes can support weight loss. In addition, because of its strong anti-fungal properties, apple cider vinegar can help fight candida. Individuals suffering from candida overgrowth often experience cravings for carbohydrates and sugar, which might contribute to weight gain.

Why is Apple Cider Vinegar better to use?

Apple cider vinegar is often chosen over other vinegars for many reasons. Aside from possible weight loss support, apple cider vinegar contains detoxifying qualities and has strong anti-microbial properties. Apple cider vinegar is a helpful health tonic that has shown promise in helping diabetes, cancer, heart health, high cholesterol, free radical damage, digestion and acid reflux. Indeed, even if the evidence about weight loss is lacking, it can't hurt to include apple cider vinegar in a diet.

How to use apple cider vinegar for weight loss?

It is recommended to mix two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water. Apple cider vinegar is very acidic and may cause irritation to your throat and stomach. Indeed, it should always be diluted with water or juice. It is best to use organic unpasteurized apple cider vinegar containing the "mother" to get all the good nutrients.

Check with your doctor before taking it long-term, especially if you have health problems. That being said, people have used apple cider vinegar for years with no known side effects being reported.

Drinking water before a meal works in the same way as eating soup before a meal - it satiates hunger and makes us eat less of the meal in front of us. Just because soup can help you lose weight doesn't mean it has to taste bland. There are several soup diets for weight loss that have been formulated with taste in mind.

Soups diets for weight loss will only work if these diets are able to find the balance between low calories and appetizing taste. Naturally a full cream soup full of potatoes and seasoning will taste very delicious, but it's not very effective in helping people with their goals. A diet soup recipe will substitute the full cream with skim milk, and use something like asparagus or celery as a substitute to potatoes, which are very high in carbohydrates. Of course it won't taste the same, but this only illustrates a way to make a diet soup appetizing without making it full of calories. All it takes is a little creativity and a lot of research.

You have to note that not all vegetables are the same either, and you have to avoid starchy vegetables like corn and potatoes as much as possible. You should also avoid soups that are cream-based, and instead concentrate on clear or even tomato-based soups.

Results:

Case Study - Meal 1 The water will be absorbed separately and quickly so you will feel hungry again.

Case Study - Meal 2 The water is so finely blended with the other ingredients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats, etc) that the stomach cannot recognize them individually and process them separately. The stomach is forced to slowly go to work processing the meal as a whole; not processing easily absorbed components first; like water. Good news: You feel fuller for longer, much longer!

Psyllium husk lowers cholesterol when you add to a low-fat diet. Studies show that the supplement psyllium lowers the bad cholesterol (LDL).

Fiber intake needs to be part of a regular diet as it is a means to effectively address the untoward incidence of stomach distress or annoying bowel movement.

There are lots of fruits and vegetables that are proven to be rich in fiber. Pineapple and green leafy vegetables are some common examples. But according to some studies, Psyllium husk has the most fiber content making it the most excellent source of dietary fibers. An estimate of 71 grams of fiber for one-third of a cup is in its content compared to only 5 grams fibers of the same cup for other fibrous foods.

Psyllium husks are found in Plantago Psyllium. It is a plant that thrives in Middle East. The husk is the seed cover of this plant. Because of its high count of fiber, it is found to be a very effective in terms of obtaining more dietary fiber into a person's eating habits.

When psyllium husks are taken, they pass through the digestive tract, taking a lot of water along the process. But these husks are not digested, instead they help in the built up of stools becoming bulkier and softer. In this way, the stools can move through the intestine smoothly with lesser force on the intestinal wall. Through this smooth and fast process, haemorrhoids are prevented to occur. Going through this process, it is important that husk should be taken along with lots of water. A glass full of water should be taken when taking husk and an additional of six to seven glasses of water should be drank within the day to give the husks do their function effectively.

In addition, studies show that aside from digestion improvement, there are other benefits that these husks offer. They can also be helpful in reducing blood cholesterol. If taken regularly, it has been found that it can lower bad cholesterol by as much as 7%.

Furthermore, it has also been observed that excretion of stool includes fats. In effect, it acts as a supplement for weight loss. Other studies also inform that these husks are also beneficial in decreasing the count of blood sugar in the body. However, these studies are yet to be proven as these benefits are still on the initial stage of observation.

Continuous studies are being done to identify the other benefits of husk consumption. At the moment, it is already proven that it can facilitate in the proper digestion process and it helps in lowering blood cholesterol that results in lower blood pressure. A study on its effects on weight management and blood sugar control is currently in progress to fully establish these additional benefits of the husk.

With the existing benefits of the husk, it has already proven itself of the positive implications of its intake. Additional advantages would just be another testimony of the goodness of husk in the body.
