Raw Food Weight Loss Diet - Easy Recipes!
Just a little bit ago, I answered some very popular FAQ's about the Raw Food Weight Loss Diet. Now I want to take an even closer look at one of the biggest concerns most people have with the Raw Food Diet - What to eat.
This is a concern with any diet, whether for weight loss, detox, or just general health. Many times you'll know the basics of what you can eat, but you will get bored with the basics pretty quickly. This pushes the door wide open so temptation can waltz in a foil your plan -again!
This doesn't have to be the case, and is one of the biggest reasons I advise people starting this diet to get a Raw Foods Cookbook to help them out. Here are two very easy recipes I've come to love to help you through your day.
Tomato Cups
3 medium tomatoes
1/4 of a small cucumber
1 stick celery
1/2 of a small onion
1/4 cup of fresh parsley
1/2 tablespoon fresh mint
1/2 clove garlic
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
Sea salt to taste
Cut the tomatoes in half and scoop out center, leave about a fourth of an inch worth of wall. Put the scooped out pulp in a bowl and set aside.
Finely chop (or use a food processor) all the other ingredients and put in the bowl with tomato pulp.
Mix well.
Fill the tomato halves slightly higher than the brim.
Makes 6 cups.
These are great for a snack, side dish, or anytime. You can even use smaller tomatoes to make them finger food. :)
Nuts Over Raw Salad
1 cup Almonds
1 cup Cashews
1 cup Walnuts
1 cup Peanuts
1 cup Pumpkin Seeds (de-shelled)
1 cup Raw Chocolate Nibs
4 tablespoons of Agave Nectar
Sea Salt
1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
Mix all the nuts and seeds in a large bowl. Add agave nectar and stir well. Sprinkle cinnamon, chocolate, and desired sea salt amount and stir once more.
This takes only a few moments and can be eaten at breakfast, on the go, or even as a late night snack and I love the salty/sweet combination!
All it takes to ease into this diet is replacing your snacks with healthier choices like the salad above, and replacing one meal a day with a raw meal. I wish you tons of success!
The Top Ten Weight Loss Foods
Quick Rapid Weight Loss
1. Blueberries (A recent animal study showed that ½ cup a day improves memory)
2. Broccoli (An amazing source of phytochemicals including the cancer-fighting indole-3-carbinole. The calcium in broccoli is better absorbed by the body than the calcium from milk)
3. Kale (The superstar of vegetables with the highest known antioxidant capacity)
4. Tomatoes (High in vitamins and lycopene, which may have a protective effect against prostate cancer)
5. Oatmeal (A wonderful source of fiber, as well as one of the only food sources of GLA, an important fatty acid. Go for the slow cooking kind, not the instant)
6. Eggs (One of nature's most complete foods and a highly bio-available source of protein. Get the free-range kind which have omega-3 fats, and don't be afraid of the yolk! A close runner-up in the perfect protein sweepstakes is whey protein powder)
7. Salmon and sardines (Two of the best sources of omega-3 fats. Sardines are a health food store in a can)
8. Cantaloupe (A great source of beta-carotene and a high-volume low-calorie filler-upper that also happens to be delicious)
9. Garlic and onions (Both members of the allium family of vegetables they are loaded with phytochemicals that confer numerous health benefits. They also make food taste good!)
10. Water nourishes, replenishes, and is needed for every cellular process in the body.

Overgrowth of Oral Bacteria Linked to Obesity
Quick Rapid Weight Loss
It is an interesting day when researchers can analyze the bacterial types in the mouth and if one known as Selenomanas noxia is present in an amount greater than 1.05%, then there is a 98% likelihood the person is overweight. This was the finding from research conducted on 545 women from the Forsyth Institute. The researchers compared 40 strains of oral bacteria from 313 overweight women and 232 controls. There were 7 significant differences, and the one in particular that was striking. Needless to say, oral bacteria is swallowed and oral imbalance is reflective of digestive imbalance (as well as potential dental hygiene issues). A number of interesting conclusions can be made. 1) There is likely an oral, sinus, and/or digestive imbalance aspect to just about anyone who has stubborn weight issues. This is more information that confirms the vital role of a healthy digestive tract so as to support optimal health and weight management
2) These overgrown bacteria are either generating inflammatory signals that interfere with metabolism or have some other metabolic signal or waste product that is directly interacting with human metabolism and slowing it down.
12 Ways To Be Healthier
For More Information Please See Quick Rapid Weight Loss
Want to loose weight, sleep better and boost your immune system?
1 Have a lie down
Back pain can be avoided and the damage repaired with one easy exercise, which is lie down on the floor with your knees bent, hip width apart, feet on the floor. Do this daily for about five to fifteen minutes to release and lengthen your spine.
2 Note your nibbles
Crash diets don't work for long enough; instead maintain a food dairy to note your daily eating habits. With this you'll be conscious of what you eat, and make healthier choices.
3 10 deep breaths
Our breath power our lymphatic system, which removes waste from cells. By taking 10 deep breaths, three times a day, you'll clear more toxins and boost your thinking power by getting 20% more oxygen to your brain.
4 Put your fork down
Put your fork down between every mouthful of food, it makes you chew your food properly, preventing digestive problems, and also prevents you from over- eating.
For More Information Please See Quick Rapid Weight Loss
5 Make a list
The most effective stress buster is to make a list. Your short term memory can only remember, on an average, seven things. So when you overload it , your stress level escalate. Making a list clears out all the stress from your brain you feel tension free. This saves you from headaches, depression and high blood pressure.
6 Massage your feet
Poor circulation could be robbing you of much needed sleep. Your temperature needs to drop slightly before you fall asleep, so your body dispels heat via your face, hands and feet. But many women have poor circulation, which constricts the blood vessels in their hands and feet and prevents them from dispelling heat. A hot bath before sleeping or a hand and foot massage will increase your circulation.

7 An organic apple a day
If you buy one organic item a day, make it an apple. Research found that pesticide residues in 71% of apples- the highest in fruits and vegetables.
8 Change your tea bag
When it comes to tea white is the new green. White tea comes from the same plant as green and black but is harvested earlier and undergoes less processing, which means it contains more cancer fighting anti- oxidants.
9 Eat dried apricots
The most common nutritional deficiency is iron. Tiredness, irritability and lack of concentration. Prevent it by having two helpings of lean red meat a week, or three dried apricots a day.
10 Stop skipping meals
Eating three meals a day is very important for a healthy body. It's the simplest way to balance blood sugar levels, which will keep your mood, energy and concentration balanced and strengthen your stress tolerance.
For More Information Please See Quick Rapid Weight Loss
11 Keep it crunchy
Include some raw vegetables in every meal. Many of the vitamins and minerals are in vegetables are lost through cooking, so raw food is as good as it gets.
12 Focus on your feeling
Take two minutes to boost your resolve to do walk, jog or aerobics class. The instant gratification of that exercise high is far more motivating than the promise of thinner thighs two months down the line.

10 Top Healthy Foods To Keep You Fit
For More Information On How To Lose More Weight See Quick Rapid Weight Loss
Healthy eating and physical fitness go together, but there are no magic foods that cause you to be one hundred percent healthy by just eating the one food. No, you need a variety of foods from each of these food groups each day. It's also important to watch the portion size so as not to overeat. Make your mealtimes pleasant and relaxed occasions and your healthy foods will work effectively with your healthy emotions to give you a healthy body.
Berries
You may like all types of berries or just one or two favorites, but you can never go wrong by adding a few fresh berries as a quick energy snack or frozen berries made into a luscious smoothie in place of calorie laden desserts. Berries are high in vitamin C across the board, but some are high in other nutrients as well. Choose ripe blueberries for vitamin C and heaps of anti-oxidants for the health of your circulatory system. Gogi berries are less well-known but are wonderfully rich in many of the nutrients your body needs to be nutritionally and physically fit.

Citrus
The foods of the citrus family are widely recognized as a valuable source of vitamin C. Choose fully ripe citrus fruits for the best nutritional value and choose citrus as near to the tree as possible. Tree ripened fruits picked at the peak of perfection and consumed with hours of picking give you the top nutritional rating. Try grapefruit for breakfast. Add a dash of fresh squeezed lime to your salad as a dressing and enjoy slices of orange with coconut in a light honey dressing for dessert.
Vegetables
The variety of vegetables is amazing. For people who are vegetarian or vegan, choosing vegetables to be part of a nutritionally sound diet is a way of life. Your vegetable group provides many of the minerals required in a good diet. For example, you may realize that potassium is necessary for healthy nutrition. Many people claim the benefits of potassium found in a single banana. But did you know, you can also get adequate potassium in your diet by eating a stalk of broccoli? Try a salad of fresh young spinach topped with pine nuts and stirred with lightly cooked penne'. Feta cheese and a light vinaigrette dressing to create the perfect light luncheon meal.
Whole Grains
Like many other of the best foods, choosing only one type of whole grain for your meals doesn't provide all the variety you need to be nutritionally sound. Often, mixing two or more whole grains together will give you complete proteins. For example, brown rice and wheat kernels with a spicy seasoning are a popular dish in many countries.
Salmon
Salmon is lean fish and nutritionally one of the best fish choices. It is rich in Omega-3 oils that are noted as helping improve the functioning of the brain. Salmon baked whole with just lemon or lime as a seasoning makes a fantastic main dish or a hearty luncheon featured menu item. Salmon is also commonly found in chilled seafood dishes.

Legumes
A legume is the name for a variety of fruits with a single dry seed. Legumes are sometimes called pods. Examples of edible legumes are soybeans, peas, dried beans and peanuts, among others. Legumes are rich in iron and high in fiber, making them excellent nutritional choices. Peanuts are a type of legume that have been used to make hundreds of different products some edible and others with various types of helpful uses.
Nuts and seeds
Nature has packed a lot of goodness into small packages. Most everyone has heard of walnuts and pecans which are very good nutritional products, but did you realize that flax seeds are brain food--containing critical non-meat sources of the Omega-3 oil.
Lean proteins
The keyword here is lean. Americans eat far too much protein compared to the rest of the world. Cut down of portion sizes--three ounces will provide all the needed protein needed for your day. Also, trim all visible fat from your protein source. Alternatively, use non meat substitutes such as the complete proteins found in vegetable dishes like beans and brown rice.
Tea
Depending on the type of tea you prefer, you can get an energy boost from a cup of green tea, or the calming effect of chamomile tea. Get going with mint teas or start your day with Earl Grey Breakfast Tea. Herbal teas are soothing, tasty and good for you. Non herbal teas will help you to stay alert when you need help to function.
Olive oil
Olive oil is probably the healthiest substance you can use to keep fat in your diet. You can use it on your salad, mix it with a little vinegar to create your own, or fry other foods in the hot oil. Just make sure that the temperature is not too hot so that the oil is broken down.

Lab Test: Inject Genes Into The Brain, Fat Disappears
Quick Rapid Weight Loss
It's estimated two out of three Americans are now overweight or obese* - and spend about $60 billion a year to try and change it.** But someday losing weight might be as quick as a single injection - but this one wouldn't be in the arm - it would be in the brain.
It was Doctor Matthew During, MD, PhD of Ohio State University Medical Center who developed the concept - using a gene in lab mice known as BDNF.
"We're putting in a normal, healthy copy of the gene that's already there, but just giving it the instructions to turn it on so that gene is now what we call being expressed," says Dr. During.
And when it is expressed, that gene helps control not only how much the animals eat but how efficiently they burn calories. Clinical trials involving mice yielded impressive results. Within an hour of injection, insulin levels in the mice dropped by a third. Within weeks of injection, the mice shed half their weight. All from a single injection.***
Dr. During says going directly into the brain works best - and it's a technique already in use. For years, surgeons have implanted devices in the brain to help with everything from Parkinson's Disease to depression. And some day, During says, he could see the same for weight loss.
"We do the surgery and drop in the gluid and it takes an hour or two. The patient then has a follow-up scan four four to six hours later, if everything looks healthy on the brain, we send them home," says Dr. During.
Quick Rapid Weight Loss
While human tests have yet to start, the approach could someday be a viable option for people like Tammy Murray. Even though she's committed to exercising and eating righ, she knows how easy it can be to get sidetracked.
"When months go by, you get further and further away from your goal, your weight creeps up, your bad habits increase and you're back where you started," says Murray. But these injections would be permanent and scientists say the results would be too.
Scientists also say that there is a safety mechanism built into the injection that can shut down the gene therapy if anything goes wrong.
Quick Rapid Weight Loss
Dr. During hopes to take his idea to the FDA for human studies within the next 12 to 18 Months.

6 Tips For A Healthy Dinner Out
Tips For A Quick Rapid Weight Loss
Ever wonder how you can possibly lose weight when the average dinner out contains over 1,000 calories? Well, don’t fret! Keeping yourself in shape when dining out is simply a matter of ordering the right menu.
Below are 6 tips for having a healthy dinner out (while still enjoying your meal like normal!):
- Watch Your Drinks – By not ordering an alcoholic beverage, you've saved yourself a considerable number of calories. Try sipping iced tea sweetened with a noncaloric sweetener, a diet soft drink, or water with lemon. You'll be glad you did when you consider the calorie savings.
- Have A Salad – One of the best menus to have is salad. Not only will it fill you up so you'll consume fewer calories overall, but it will also give you a hefty dose of antioxidants which are heart healthy. Be sure to ask your waitress to hold the croutons and cheese which will further reduce your caloric load. Also, choose your dressing wisely. Avoid cream based dressings and go for the vinegar based ones. You also have the option of using vinegar and olive oil which is heart healthy.
- Don’t Order An Appetizer Unless Necessary – Do you know that some appetizers have more calories and fat than the main course? Plus, many appetizers are fried and served with heavy sauces which will add to your intake of saturated fat as well as trans fats and calories. It's not a healthy way to start your meal.

- Choose The Right Kind Of Foods - Go for broiled and grilled rather than fried. Not only will you save calories and fat grams, you'll also avoid trans fats which are so prevalent in fried foods. Instead, consider asking for a doubles order of vegetables with your entree. Very few Americans are getting the 7-9 servings of fruits and vegetables recommended for optimal health. Plus, by avoiding the starch, you'll be reducing your caloric and carbohydrate load. Also, stick to tomato based sauces rather than cream based and you'll enjoy a considerable calorie savings. Lastly, ask for the sauce to be served in a separate dish on the side so you can control the amount you eat.
- Don’t Overeat - Today, many restaurants are serving larger quantities of food than in the past. If this is the case, put aside a portion of your entree at the beginning of the meal to take home with you. If you remove it from your plate before you start eating, you'll be less tempted to overeat.

- Say “No” To Sugary, Fatty Desserts - Instead, go for a low fat or low carbohydrate dessert selection such as a low carb cheesecake. These are wise choices for the health conscious eater and still allow you to end the meal on a sweet note. If a healthy dessert option isn't available, try a cup of coffee with skim milk to help satiate your desire for something sweet.
The next time you go out for dinner, keep the above tips in mind. You will be surprised how many calories you are able to slash out of your meal just by ordering the right menus! Happy healthy eating!

The Diet Solution Program Review
Review of The Diet Solution Program: The Program that Promises Fat Loss along with an incredible amount of Health and Vitality.
The Diet Solution Program promises a complete and comprehensive weight loss program that will not only help you lose body fat, but guarantees you increased energy, health and vitality all at the same time.
With so many weight loss programs out on the market and on the internet today, what makes this program any different than all the rest?
Before we get to the program, let's take a look at the expert behind this program. Isabel De Los Rios is a nutrition and exercise specialist with 10 years of experience helping clients reach their ideal weight and tackle conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and high cholesterol. Isabel has a very extensive educational background in nutrition and exercise physiology. Her personal experience with her own weight struggles and her mother’s severe diabetes led her search for the BEST nutrition information available today. The Diet Solution Program is a result of her 15 year study and research.
I've also talked to Isabel about her training and education background, and I'll be honest, it was impressive, unlike other so-called “health experts”, who are just following main stream nutrition programs. Isabel provides her readers with the truth: the facts most people have never taken the time to research, read and decipher.

Plus, Isabel has been a nutrition and exercise specialist for the past 10 years and has personally worked with hundreds of clients in her own private facility, overseeing successful weight loss programs. This hands on experience with real people solidified the facts and principles she had learned in books, journals and from other health professionals. The proof was really in the results of real people.
In fact, Isabel's articles are pretty radical when it comes to her nutrition principles which is why her approach works when main-stream nutrition fails. So if you are looking for the same old nutrition theories taught in every other book and program on the market today, this is not the program for you.
Now one of the biggest questions about the program is simply, "What is The Diet Solution Program?" Well according to Isabel, it is the most comprehensive and detailed nutrition manual available on the market today. Not only does it teach you exactly what principles you need to follow to finally reach your ideal weight, it gives you the meal plans, shopping lists and recipes to do so. It does not push some extreme, unreasonable way to lose weight. It actually teaches you how you can make this healthy way of eating into a lifestyle. And if you have ever attempted to lose weight in the past, you know that the only way to maintain it is to make it a way of life. The best part about Isabel’s program is that this new way of life is not some torturous eating regimen. She really shows you that you can eat delicious food, combined the right way, to lose weight and maintain it.
One of the best side effects of the whole program is the increased health and vitality that every participant experiences. Decreases in blood sugar levels, lowered cholesterol, increased energy, elimination of digestive discomfort and cleared skin conditions are just some of the few benefits other people have already experienced.
Frankly, I've used the program myself and recommended to many others. Why? Because I was sick and tired of following nutrition plans that either did not work or made me lose weight but feel terrible. Yes, I want to be at my ideal weight but I also want to maintain a healthy body at the same time and not have to resort to extreme, radical methods. The Diet Solution Program helped me lose weight and feel healthy and energized at the same time.
Now realize that some effort from you will be required, but Isabel has really done all the hard work for you. Included in her program is:
- Step by step action steps telling you exactly how to put the principles in place
- Detailed daily meal plans that make everyday eating easy
- Shopping Lists to make food shopping a snap
- Delicious Recipes to make everyday meals tasty
The manual is comprehensive. Jam packed with incredible and valuable information. But you don’t need to wait to get through the whole thing before you can start. You can use Isabel’s Quick Start Guide to start the program ASAP. Some people have even just used the quick start guide and lost 10-15lbs in a little as 6 weeks.
The Diet Solution Program is not just another weight loss scheme or extreme diet. It is truly the only way to lose weight and enjoy a lifetime of health. The Diet Solution Program is perfect for people who have struggled with their weight their whole life and are sick and tired of programs that just don’t work long term. The DSP is also perfect for people who want to take control of their health and reverse health conditions like diabetes, high cholesterol and heart disease.
If you're in the slightest bit curious, I recommend you look closely at Isabel's program. I was very impressed with all of The Diet Solution Program meal plans, the bonuses, the guarantee, and Isabel's expertise. For the money, it's the best deal in the weight loss industry - so much better than diet pills! And remember...
Isabel De Los Rios’s The Diet Solution Program is backed by a 90 day money back guarantee. And this is a real guarantee... if you are not completely satisfied, you will receive your money back, no "ifs," "ands," or "buts." So you really have nothing to lose.

Losing Weight The Easy Way With Simple Steps
If you are looking to lose weight the easy way then I am going to give you just the information that you need to lose weight. If you feel that you are all alone in this world of being overweight then you must think again. There are plenty of people that suffer with being heavy. I can personally say that I myself has had to deal with this for quite some time. I was over 50 pounds over weight after high school and I had no idea why.
But when I really sat down and thought about it, I came up with my answer, I just wasn't that active anymore. I had a ton of problems with my health, like the foods I ate, the things I did the life I lived. I just wasn't healthy.
Walking, walking 60 minutes a day for 6 days over 90 days can prove to lead to weight loss. You can begin to see the weight drop in just 30 days.
Foods - You need to eliminate certain foods that you eat, things such as soda, candy, fried foods, fast foods. Eating these types of food can lead to slow weight gain over the course of your life. Drinking 12 glasses of water a day can also help filter out the bad toxins and help with the weight loss process as well. Eating whole grain, lean meats, grilled chicken and fish can also prove to help with the weight loss process. Take a multi vitamin and eat green leafy vegetables.
I hope you found this information helpful and please have a look at my resource box.
