There are hundreds of diets and products that assure that will help to find the answer to this question. However, the basic formula for losing weight never changes. In order to lose weight you must expend more energy than to. This can be achieved by reducing calorie intake (diet) and / or increasing the rate of burning calories (exercise).
Most people can lose weight if you consume less than 1500 calories a day and do aerobics for 15-20 minutes 3-4 times a week. What causes overweight? The increase in body weight often causes resistance to the hormone insulin. If the fat cells in the abdomen becomes more or their number increases, they begin to develop a series of biological products (e.g., resistin) which decrease insulin action, impairs glucose uptake by skeletal muscle and stimulate the production of glucose (blood sugar) in the liver.
It is also important to know that if you increase the number and size of fat cells, reduces the secretion of compounds that promote insulin action. What dietary factors help to lose weight? Dietary carbohydrates are Central in any weight loss program, as they act on insulin sensitivity. It is important not to consume refined sugar, white flour products and other sources of simple sugars because they are quickly digested and enter the bloodstream, causing a sharp increase in blood sugar levels. It is important to increase the intake of dietary fiber, especially in soluble form.
Soluble fiber slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, thereby preventing rapid increase in blood sugar levels. Its fiber also increase the sensitivity of tissues to insulin and increase glucose uptake by muscle, liver and other tissues, thereby preventing long-lasting increase of sugar level. Especially good sources of soluble fiber are legumes, oat bran, nuts, seeds, pears, apples and most vegetables. In order to obtain a sufficient amount of fiber requires a large number of products. The best source of fiber is beans, green peas and beans, they need a very small amount.
People with insulin resistance and high blood sugar, I would also recommend taking a Supplement with fiber — PGX or PolyGlycopleX (described below). These unique, patented fibers have the highest viscosity and is able to transform into gel, so they are many times more effective than other types of fibers to increase insulin sensitivity and activate AMPK. What nutritional supplements should be taken with obesity? Basic supplements.Effective multivitamins, vitamin D3 2 000-5 000 IU / day, fish oil, EPA and DHA 1 000 – 3 000 mg per day.
It is important to take a sufficient amount of chromium — 200 – 400 mcg per day. PolyGlycoplex (PGX®)is a revolutionary nutritional Supplement with fiber, based on more than 15 years of research and development along with extensive preclinical studies and clinical trials. PGX is 100% natural, non-addictive and safe to consume Supplement without any serious side effects. Detailed clinical studies have shown that PGX exerts the following benefits: Reduces appetite and promotes effective weight loss Stabilizes the blood sugar control Increases sensitivity to insulin Lowers the glycemic index of any product, beverage or meal by 35-50%. Lowers cholesterol and triglycerides PGX is available in a variety of forms, such as granules, capsules and as an integral part of mix for drinks or meal replacements. Dosage: 2.5 – 5 grams before meals.
Extract mulberry leaf maintains healthy sugar level in blood and also promotes weight loss. Dosage: the equivalent of 3000 mg dried mulberry leaf a day. Dosage for extract 10:1 is 100 mg three times a day before meals. It can be taken with PGX. The green coffee bean extract contains lots of chlorogenic acid, a compound that improves glucose metabolism, slows down the accumulation of fat and reduces the absorption of glucose in the intestine. It is a useful compound in sufficient quantity is found only in the raw green coffee beans. Application: 400 mg three times a day.
5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in the brain is converted to serotonin. Low level of serotonin causes appetite, especially cravings for sweet things. A series of four clinical trials involving women who are overweight, have shown that 5-HTP effective in weight loss. Application: 50-100 mg 20 minutes before meals.
Green tea extract
with a high concentration of catechins (polyphenolic flavonoids) without harm to the body speeds up metabolism and promotes weight loss. However, these compounds are often not effectively absorbed by the body. Green Tea Phytosome® contains high quality green tea extract without the caffeine and phosphatidylcholine, whereby it is absorbed in 3-5 times better than other products with green tea. Application: 150 mg twice a day.
How to understand what methods are recommended? Getting up on the scales You see on the total weight of the body, not the ratio of fat to muscle, or body Constitution. Although overweight is the risk factor that can cause heart attack, stroke, and type II diabetes, it is not a critical risk factor. Correct to say that the cause of these diseases is the excessive amount of fat, not body. For a more accurate determination of body composition I recommend using a scale that can measure the percentage of body fat. Ideally, women’s fat percentage should be less than 25 %, and in men less than 20 %.
