A Vegan Diet For Healthy Weight Loss
Folks, A Vegan Regimen Stands Out For Healthy Weight Loss
Gourmet Traditional & Herbal Teas
It really would be close to preaching to the choir if I told a vegan that that particular diet may be the best for shedding pounds the healthy way, however to a non-vegan or a vegan-to-be, take it from me, that bit of information is so true.
Besides the ethical values (which don't necessarily drive me to being a vegan myself), there is no question that a vegan diet may perhaps be the healthiest choice for humans.
Statistics show that vegans are less likely to have problems such as heart disease and cancer, and are more likely to keep to a healthy weight.
Nonetheless, the main thing to keep in mind when using a vegan regimen for weight loss is balance with the proper food items.
Just because there are chocolate chips, apple-pies etc that may be 'vegan' doesn't mean that you should binge on these items as you most likely will see little or no results in your quest to lose weight with a vegan diet...and may actually be doing more harm than good.
Now, perhaps the most effective dietetic menu suggestion to lose weight on a vegan diet will mirror the suggestion below:
Breakfast:
A choice of the following
1. A tall glass of Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice.
2. A tall glass of Fresh squeezed lemonade flavored with genuine maple
Syrup (the darker the grade the better)
Lunch:
A mono-meal of an organic fruit in season for example: Apples in the fall and winter, Melons in the summer, Berries in spring.
Dinner:
Fresh, home-made salads.
A simple dressing could be
(a) Lemon juice, olive oil and un-iodized sea-salt
(b) Avocadoes or Green coconuts blended with tomatoes and some sea salt
Or
Raw and/or cooked root vegetables such as Celery, Carrots, Potatoes, Plantains, raw or slightly heated fruit veggies (these can be blended into Soups or dressings for your salads)
You will be able to see that the meal we all know as breakfast is purposely omitted, well this is based on the fact that the human body goes through a cleansing process from twelve midnight until twelve noon, and a building program from twelve noon to twelve midnight, therefore our meals during these respective periods should be harmonious with these processes of natural detoxification of the body.
Sounds intriguing eh?
Well, it shouldn't be, it is based on scientific research on thousands of people for over two centuries on such health principles as food combination and assimilation.
In addition to this sure-to-be in fascinating discovery, other factors that must be mentioned when trying to shed pounds on a vegan regimen are to incorporate some form of vigorous exercises such as simple body-weight calisthenics, Yoga's Sun Salutes, The Yoga derivatives (or even Yoga itself) such as Pilates & The royal court and Aerobic exercises.
However, in using exercise remember to
* Set your goals
* Set a timeframe for your goals
* Figure out how to meet your goals with an exercise program
* Structure your program
* Maintain your program
And one more thing...I say this in almost all my articles on nutrition: cease the use of microwaves starting now
Here's to health and wellness mate.
