The effective methods to keep a healthy and trim in summer

1. Learn to love vegetables! Have salads often in the day. And make sure to limit your salad dressing in order to avoid adding too many calories.
2. A great guideline for each meal is to have your plate be roughly 25% crabs, 25% protein, and 50% fruits and vegetables for each meal. If by the end of the meal you still feel hungry, then take more vegetables, only.
3. If you are trying to feel healthy and trim, it’s fine to feel a little hungry. If you’re feeling very hungry, have some fruit and nuts.
4. Try to make a conscious effort at each meal to eat at a slower pace. Take it slow and the food will even taste better. While you eat, take small bites and really taste and enjoy the food. This will give your body plenty of time to send your brain the signal that you feel full.
5. Try this daily recipe: 7 ounces of water, 1 ounce of pure cranberry juice, and 1 tablespoon of ground flax seed. Have this recipe twice a day for increasing your fiber, and for getting these healthy benefits: lower cholesterol, antioxidant power, and inhibiting the onset of estrogen-stimulated breast cancer. The pure cranberry juice will help cleansing your kidneys and liver.
6. Refined sugar is not good for your health. Try to cut back or even eliminate completely, as a resolution for next year. Honey is a much better choice. When having a sugar craving, have fruit instead.
7. Try to get at least 30 grams of fiber per day, because it’ll give you the feeling of ‘All Full’. And fiber blocks the absorption of sugar, and trims away fat.
8. Look for the phrase ’100% Whole Grains’ on bread, cereals, crackers, etc., but also read carefully the nutrition labels. Check the fiber count and use whole grain pastas and breads. They’ll fill you up and they are much healthier for you.
9. Try eating every 4-5 hours so that you’re never tempted to eat excessively at meal time due to feeling too hungry.
You see, if you try skipping many meals, your body will go into starvation mode whereby your metabolism will slow down drastically, keeping you from losing weight and actually causing more likely to hold onto calories, next time you do have a meal. Don’t skip breakfast or any meal – you’ll make yourself too hungry and you’ll probably over-eat at your next meal.
10. Keep fat cheese to a minimum in your daily diet. Keep in mind that just a little can go a long way for adding some flavor to your meal.
11. Stay clear of tobacco. If you’ve tried quitting in the past and failed, don’t ever stop trying. If you make the resolution of keep trying every New Year, you’ll eventually succeed! And keep alcohol to a minimum.
12. For snacks, simply have fruit, low calorie popcorn, and 4-5 nuts. And just keep junk food out of your home and you’ll feel healthy and trim.
13. Wash all fruits and vegetables with soap, water and a sponge.

Comparison of fruit and vegetables, nutrition

A lot of people think: fruit and vegetable nutrition composition is similar, do not eat vegetables, and eat a pound of fruit a day is enough, not only nutritious enough, it is a good time to lose weight, then it becomes a fruit breakfast and dinner meals. A few women who hold this idea, but the question is, vegetables can completely replace fruits?

1, as a whole, the fruit and vegetable contain vitamin C though and minerals, but the contents have some differences. Only jujube fruit have hawthorn and citrus, kiwi fruit and other rich with Vitamin C, other fruit contains vitamin C and minerals are not as vegetables. The green leafy vegetables, vitamin C and iron content are high, which for the developing young people and women is very important to eat fruit of light is not achieve the full effect of nutritional supplements.

2, fruits and vegetables of different vegetables in the nutritional structure, vegetables are not only much higher than the dietary fiber content of fruit, but is not it contains soluble fiber, with the promotion of intestinal peristalsis, intestinal clearance of toxic substances such as savings, it can effectively to prevent constipation, hemorrhoids, prevention of colorectal cancer, which is unable to achieve the effect of eating fruit. Contained in fruits, mainly soluble fiber – pectin, it cannot easily be absorbed; it will slow down gastric emptying.

3 sugars contained in fruits and vegetables and the role of the body not the same as most vegetables contain carbohydrates are starch polysaccharides, it need to go through the human digestive tract of various enzymatic hydrolysis into simple sugars before they can be absorbed slowly Therefore, the body does not cause fluctuations in blood sugar. The sugar contained in fruit is mainly simple sugars (fructose, glucose) and disaccharides (sucrose), which enters the body, just a little digestion, can be dissolved in the blood. Therefore, a large number of fruit within a short time blood glucose levels will soon rise, it is bad for healthy. These simple sugars go into the human liver, the very easy to change into fat, make people fat.

Of course, the fruit has its unique function, such as most fruits contain organic acids, it can stimulate the secretion of digestive juice; different fruits and vegetables also have a different therapeutic effect. So, we should be 400 grams -500 grams of fresh vegetables every day, and then eat 100 grams of -200 appropriate grams of fruit, as a nutritional aid.
