What To Eat To Reduce Your Cholesterol Levels

The Western world is under assault from a disease of our own making! Health officials in each Western country are ringing the warning bells about general public levels of obesity, high blood pressure and cholesterol. The foremost culprits of this are said to be over eating, eating junk food and not exercising sufficiently.

At one time, not so long ago, the majority of the sufferers of these issues were middle-aged Americans. That extended to middle-aged Europeans. Then to American children and now it is spreading to European children. None of the warnings concerning eating too much junk food and not exercising enough seem to be having any effect at all.

All of these three conditions are related and that is why heart disease is the primary killer of adults in the West. Cholesterol plays a big part in these conditions. However, not all cholesterol is bad. LDL cholesterol is generally known as the ‘bad cholesterol’ and HDL is called the ‘good cholesterol’, because it helps mop up LDL.

Small amounts of cholesterol are also necessary for the production of vitamin D and bile salts and it is also helpful in the balancing of hormones particularly in women. However, LDL cholesterol occasionally clings to the walls of the arteries and if it is permitted to mount up too much, can block them.

If the arteries become clogged, the heart will have to pump more to get enough blood to where it is required and this can lead to the first stages of high blood pressure.

The best way to get rid of excess LDL is to have high levels of HDL, because HDL captures LDL and takes it back to the liver where it is dealt with and excreted.. HDL cholesterol can be eaten by eating nuts, fish, fresh fruit and vegetables, soya and remarkable spreads that were designed to lower LDL.

However, the best way of reducing LDL is by not eating it in the first place. LDL is most prevalent in saturated fats and hydrogenated trans fats. Saturated fats are usually in red meat and full-fat dairy products like milk, cream, butter and cheese. Trans fats are mostly in junk foodstuffs like potato crisps, potato chips, pies, pasties, hamburgers and hot dogs. Cut these out and that is half the battle for a great deal of individuals.

Replace the red meat in your diet with soya products like tofu, of which 25% grammes a day is said to be able to lessen bad cholesterol by 15-30%. Walnuts and almonds have a similar reputation as do olive oil and rolled oats.

In fact, all grains, pulses and beans are friends in the fight against LDL. In general, the foods that will help you are those that contain plenty of fibre and roughage; fresh is better than tinned (which will contain a preservative such as salt); and white meat or fish is superior to red meat like beef and pork.

3 Recipes Involving Cantaloupe

Posted by Owen Jones | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 02-05-2012-05-2008

0

The variety of melons called muskmelons consists of a juicy, edible fruit that is characterized by its round shape and a ribbed exterior. Cantaloupes are a type of muskmelons..

Considerable variation occurs in this fruit. Some cantaloupes are large yet others are small; some have pink or yellow flesh but others have white or light-green flesh. The flesh of these fruits contains a lot of water; therefore, their food value is not high, being just a little more than half as much as that of apples.

If melons suitable for the table are required, they ought to be selected with care. To be just at the right stage, the flower end of the melon ought to be a trifle soft while pressed with the fingers. If it is very soft, the melon is maybe too ripe; yet if it does not give with pressure, the melon is too unripe.

Various methods of serving cantaloupes exist. If they are to be served natural as a breakfast food or a luncheon dessert, cut them crosswise into halves, or, if they are big, divide them into sections lengthwise.

With the melons cut in the desired fashion, remove all the seeds but keep the melons on ice until they are to be served. The pulp of the melon can also be cut from the rind yet then diced and used in the formation of fruit salads.

Again, the pulp may be partly scraped out of the melon and the rinds then packed with fruit mixtures and served with a salad dressing for a salad or with fruit juices for a cocktail. The pulp that is scraped out may be diced and used in the fruit mixture.

Recipe 1

FRUIT IN CANTALOUPE SHELLS

During cantaloupe season, a delightful fruit salad can be made by combining a number of different types of fruit with the flesh of cantaloupe and serving the mixture in the cantaloupe shells. Such a salad is a fantastic one to serve if light refreshments are desired or when something unusual is required for a light lunch.

Cut cantaloupes in half crosswise, but, using the French cutter, cut some of the meat into round balls. Dice the rest yet mix with any combination of fruit desired. Place this in the cantaloupe shells after cutting points in the top edge. Garnish with the balls cut from the cantaloupe yet serve with any desired dressing. You can also sprinkle nuts on top to add a variation of textures.

Recipe 2

FRESH FRUIT COMPOTE

1 cup fresh blueberries 1 cup fresh strawberries, halved 1 cup sliced fresh peaches, peeled 1 cup fresh blackberries or raspberries 1 cup watermelon balls 1 cup cantaloupe balls 1 cup seedless grapes 1/2 cup sparkling wine (or sweet) wine, chilled 2 tbs thawed orange juice, frozen, concentrated, undiluted

Mix together all of the fruit in a large glass or ceramic bowl then gently toss to mix. Add the orange juice and wine and lightly stir again. Chill with a wrapping on it for at least 20 minutes. Toss again lightly before serving.

Recipe 3

ERDBEER BOWLE (Strawberry Wine Punch)

1/2 pt strawberries, stemless, rinsed, cut in half 1 tbs granulated sugar 1/2 bottle German Riesling, well chilled 1 tbs brandy (preferably Alsbach Uralt) 1/2 bottle German Sekt well chilled

Bowle is a classic German party wine punch. During the month of May, throughout Germany, bowle is served flavoured with fresh woodruff (Waldmeister), a sweet scented herb with white flowers, which grows especially well in wooded and shady fields away from hot sun. Later, during strawberry season, bowle is prepared with strawberries which grow abundantly everywhere. As German summer season progresses, bowle is willing with other fruits like peaches, chunks of juicy watermelon, pieces of bright orange cantaloupe, or plump raspberries.

Put the strawberries in a substantial covered glass jar (a sun tea jar is fine), sprinkle them with sugar and drizzle them with the brandy. Put them aside to marinate for two hours to allow the sugar to draw out the juice from the berries.

Add white wine, stir, and set aside for two more hours. When finished to serve, pour into a punch bowl. Add Sekt and serve chilled in wide champagne style glasses, making certain to dispense strawberries with the wine.

Water And Dehydration

Posted by Owen Jones | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 23-04-2012-05-2008

0

We, as human beings, as very reliant on water. We are approximately 70% water and we cannot live without it. In fact, we can go weeks without food, but merely about three days without water.

One of the sad things about the Western diet is that a great deal of people no longer drink water. They have completely replaced water with sugary soft drinks, which of course contain enough water but also contain too much sugar or sugar substitute.

The first step that these people have to take in order to get back on track is to give up this silly, childish habit and begin drinking plain water again. It has been estimated that around two-thirds of people do not drink enough water, which means that they are in a permanent state of partial dehydration.

Water has several important functions in our bodies, but one of the most important ones is to flush out toxins. It is worth knowing that if you feel thirsty, your body has reached a state where it is crying out for water. In other words, it has already passed the state where it requires water, so endeavour not to wait until you are thirsty before you take a drink.

Another fact is that tea, coffee and alcohol (some of our most well-liked adult drinks) are diuretics, which is to say that they force urination, often more than they replace. So you can put 250mm in but you may lose 270mm. This is naturally not the purpose of drinking if you are thirsty

Exercise is another reason why we lose water. In fact, just by being alive, we lose water due to body heat and evaporation, but whilst we are actually doing something, we lose water fairly rapidly. You may get worried about drinking water before going to sleep, but if you can do it, it is a very healthy thing.

If you wake up a bit groggy each day and have to have breakfast, tea or coffee before you can actually wake up, it might be because of dehydration, not because you have problems waking up. Being dehydrated causes drowsiness and lack of concentration.

In fact, dehydration is a major killer in the Third World. This is not because there is no water, but because the water is contaminated. This contaminated water causes diarrhoea which causes dehydration. It is vital to continue drinking when you are sick even if you do not feel like eating.

It is suggested that we drink at least eight glasses of water (say, of 250mm each) a day. More if you are exercising or sick. It sounds like a great deal of water, but most individuals are awake for about 16 hours a day, so eight beakers works out to just one each two hours.

It is more of a difficulty to get into the habit of drinking water on a regular basis than it is to really do the drinking, but once you have acquired the habit, you will feel better on a day-to-day basis. It will not prevent you from getting sick, but your general degree of health will improve, because you are getting rid of toxins.

Foodstuffs You Should Avoid To Lower Cholesterol

Posted by Owen Jones | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 10-04-2012-05-2008

0

Cholesterol is a colossal difficulty in Western countries and the problem is spreading from older individuals to younger people and from Westerners to Easterners. Health authorities all over the world are warning of the heart disease time bomb that is ticking away. That is all well and good, but the difficulty is is that not many individuals are taking any notice until it is too late.

One of the biggest problems is that individuals do not think before purchasing a meal or a snack – if they are hungry, they will simply buy a hamburger or a pie. Another big problem, is that the generation born in the Seventies did not learn how to cook, but instead depended on junk food. They have also passed that on to their children and so it goes on.

This state of affairs has led to the increase in heart disease. So, what can be done about it? Well, the best thing would be for individuals to go back forty or fifty years and begin again, but since that is not possible, it is useful to look into that earlier lifestyle and see how we differ these days from it.

Forty or fifty years ago, there were junk foods, but most people consumed them just very infrequently. They went home to a cooked meal prepared either by their mother or their wife or they cooked it themselves. It is not important who cooked it, the fact that it was cooked at home is the significant bit.

How often do you eat take-aways and how frequently do you eat home cooked meals – meals that were made from fresh, raw ingredients?

There were fewer labour-saving devices in those days, so individuals worked harder. ‘Harder” I said, people probably work longer hours now, but they do not expend so many calories. In those days, individuals walked further and worked more strenuously and ate meals prepared from raw ingredients.

We do not do that now and those are the foremost reasons why we are all having problems with heart disease. OK, you have to be pretty far gone for it to be too late. You can make lifestyle alterations now and you will recover or you can take tablets and help to make the pharmaceuticals even richer.

If you want to do something about your circumstance, it is quite simple. The first thing to do is avoid red meat, full-fat dairy produce like milk, cream, butter and cheese and stop eating junk food, such as hamburgers, store-bought pizzas, hot dogs, pies, pasties, crisps and chips entirely. This will vastly reduce most people’s sources of the prime culprits of high cholesterol – namely, saturated fats and hydrogenated,or trans, fats..

The second thing to do is raise your intake of fresh fruit and vegetables. You should also eat more peas, beans, lentils, grains and nuts. Soya is also very (very) beneficial for you.

Avoid eating animal skin of all kinds, because a lot of the fat content is in the skin and try to replace red meat dishes with those made using fish, chicken and tofu.

Being A Vegetarian – Pros And Cons

Posted by Owen Jones | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 09-04-2012-05-2008

0

If you are considering becoming a vegetarian, then you have to be asking yourself about the pros and cons of doing so. There are different methods of looking at this. On the macro or global scale, you as an individual, by giving up eating meat, will personally save the lives and distress of all the animals that you would have consumed, if you had not given up.

On the other hand, a few hundred animals during quite a few years will not make much difference to the animal population. What is more, with the Chinese and Indian populations becoming richer, it is almost certain that they will be eating more and more meat in the near future. You will be doing your bit though.

However, on the micro, or personal level, becoming a vegetarian will transform your life. Those who have faith in detox diets say that lots of the toxins that they say build up in our bodies come from the hormones, pesticides and antibiotics that are in meat yet ought not to be.

Meat, eggs and dairy products are a Westerners foremost sources of cholesterol and fat and cholesterol and fat are blamed for being the foremost contributor to the West’s biggest killer – heart disease.

It is a fact that there are other reasons for heart disease, but it has been estimated that vegetarians have about a quarter of their meat-eating compatriots’ chances of having a heart attack. This appears significant, yet the difference between vegans and meat-eaters is even more glaring at one tenth the likelihood.

So, it seems to count what kind of vegetarian you become, because lots of vegetarians still eat fish, eggs and cheese and drink milk. However, by giving up meat alone, you will miss out on lots of the chemicals that farmers pump into their meat and poultry.

For instance, preservatives are thought to be connected to some cancers; growth hormones given to animals affect our own hormones and a lot of people just cannot digest milk, which causes the production of mucous and can give rise to digestive problems

On the negative side, you will need to learn a complete new system of supplying your body with the nutrients and vitamins that it needs. Meat is a concentrated kind of food so only eating a normal western meat and two vegetables type meal without the meat will soon become boring and land you in very hot water.

Malnutrition is the risk that greenhorn vegetarians have to become suspicious of. Obviously, it is not so a problem to be hold of information to help you be your vegetarian diet right as it used to become yet there is a vast choice of foodstuffs accessible to the contemporary vegetarian, but they are not all cheap, so cutting out meat will not to get expected save you any money.

At the end of the day, becoming a vegetarian is a highly personal affair. It is between you and your conscience, and doing the correct thing will make your life more of a problem, as does attempting any lifestyle change, but you will find it simpler as you get into the swing of things.

How To Lose Weight With Yoyo Dieting Technique

Posted by Alex T Leuis | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 10-03-2012-05-2008

0

We read about celebrities every single day who have trouble with yoyo dieting.They lose weight dramatically on one particular diet, only to have it rebound back to them over the next few weeks or months.

So how do you stay away from the dreaded yoyo dieting?

Here is the most crucial thing you’ll want to remember when attempting to stay away from yoyo dieting: Have a lengthy term attitude.

You have to begin weight loss in the manner in which you hope to continue. This means that you should go about losing weight using techniques that you will be able to maintain for the rest of your life.

Of course, when diets are this restrictive, most individuals don’t take into consideration them as a life time activity. They believe of them as temporary, punishing, unpleasant ordeals that they have to endure prior to they can get to their ideal weight.

Most individuals struggle to stick to these diets for long amounts of time, since they’re so unpleasant. And even in case you manage to lose some or all the weight you intended to, you’re soon off them and back to your usual menu.

And so lots of individuals use diets as a way to get right down to their desired weight just before a large event like a wedding, or a vacation or an essential party.

But needless to say, in the event you take this method, then you will lose weight whilst on the diet, and then once you come off it, you’ll gain it back on. This is yoyo dieting.

The solution to all of this would be to change your entire approach to weight loss. Do not believe of weight loss in terms of a short term diet that is unpleasant. Instead, make modest changes to your existing diet to ensure that over time you develop habits that support you being thin all of the time.

Think of fat loss as a way of life. Think of it as a lifestyle.

Making tiny adjustments every week, to ensure that over time you lose the weight gradually and maintain it off. Is this achievable? Obviously it’s. People who are naturally thin do not yoyo diet. They do not starve themselves for several weeks and then gorge for the next.

Is Vegetarianism On A Budget Possible?

Posted by Owen Jones | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 10-03-2012-05-2008

0

The household budget represents a substantial part of most families’ expenditure yet of that the largest part of the bill is for food. Meat probably kinds the largest part of that food bill as well, so you would get forgiven for thinking that you could save a lot of money by giving up meat. So, you would think that becoming a vegetarian would save you some money.

However, that is not always the case. You can save money by taking up vegetarianism on a budget, but it does not necessarily work out that in that way without some work on behalf of the vegetarian. The fact is that vegetables, on their own, often appear boring to someone who used to enjoy a good steak or barbecued spare ribs, so food manufacturers have come up with all sorts of accoutrements to liven up vegetarian dishes yet these are not usually all that cheap.

Even some of the fairly regular vegetarian staple foodstuffs like nuts are not necessarily cheap, particularly if you want variety. After all, you can not just eat salted peanuts, not that all that salt would be good for you anyway but when you begin to buy macademia nuts or pistachio nuts for a change, you will find them dearer than meat.

Eating out at vegetarian restaurants is also relatively costly, because the market is relatively small. There are not many restaurants that refuse to cook meat yet the percentage of the population that is vegetarian is still pretty small. This all leads to higher charges, yet that is if you can find a vegetarian restaurant outside a substantial city. A sandwich bar is around the closest you will become to it in most towns but there will be meat on the premises as well.

The cost of vegetarian food is made worse if you insist on eating organically grown food. Eating only organically grown food can add 30% to your food bill making vegetarianism on a budget impossible. So what can you do to trim down the price of your food bill if you are a vegetarian?

The first thing to do is decide if you actually have faith in the whole organic story. Some do, some do not. Either fashion, you could attempt growing the expensive vegetables in your garden, your greenhouse or in an allotment. If you can not do that, you could offer to buy these vegetables from friends, if they will grow them for you. Numerous pensioners take up gardening yet many pensioners would become glad of the extra income.

Another way is to shop at farms or farmers’ markets. I know that time is valuable, but if you can merely go to such a position once a week, you could purchase enough food for three or four days without it deteriorating. Buying in bulk like that should get cheaper too. A sack of potatoes will last a month yet it is far cheaper than purchasing a couple pounds at a time from the supermarket.

Another method of reducing costs is not to purchase your fresh fruit and vegetables from supermarkets at all, because it easy to be enticed to buy the latest fad fruit or vegetable from halfway around the world at an exaggerated cost ‘just for a change’. Stick to locally grown fruit and vegetables that are in season and you might just about manage vegetarianism on a budget.

Two Mistakes You Might Make When Losing Weight

Posted by Alex T Leuis | Posted in weight loss | Posted on 03-03-2012-05-2008

0

A lot of people who’ve a hard time burning off fat are usually making one of or all 2 quite common mistakes. In this article here, I’m going to discuss exactly what those mistakes are usually and what are the things you can do to prevent and also fix those mistakes. Should you follow this article completely, you will be amazed at how quicker and simpler you will eventually get in shape!

1. Bad Fluids – One common mistake many people make (which includes myself personally when I first began with attempting to improve my body) is consuming something which may be suppressing weight loss such as sodas and sugary fruit drinks.

Sodas as well as “high in sugar” fruit drinks have a Ton of sugar in them and they’re only useless calories. Also, diet sodas have a dangerous sugar replacement called aspartame… and this is quite dangerous to your well-being.

A Few Things I advise you consume instead is of course lots of water, green as well as black tea, coffee (in moderation), apple cider vinegar, as well as natural fresh fruit and/or vegetable juice (blended).

2. The Darn Plateau! One of the most typical issues folks suffer from is reaching a plateau. If you have reached a plateau, then the mistakes you’re making is due to what you eat as well as workout plan. So far as what you eat is concerned, if you are consuming exactly the same way each day, then your metabolism will adjust to this pattern making you reach a plateau.

As far as doing exercises is concerned, if you ever maintain performing the identical workouts, your body could possibly get used to this and would cause a plateau.

To prevent the dreaded plateau, adjust the calories along with your meals (there’s a program that will help you with this), and for exercising, I suggest that you simply change-up your own routines frequently (such as each week).

What to do instead is go on a natural diet plan which will essentially improve your metabolic rate. These kinds of diet programs are typically based around obtaining 100% appropriate nutrition, using food to increase your metabolic rate, and also essentially switching your lifestyle around rather than doing some thing very hazardous.
