Reverse insulin resistance with diet?

This email below was received from Carisa worth sharing. Don't be a hoarder of information especially when it involve health. Chef Gui here, again. Yesterday I sent you an email about the Best Cookbooks for Weight Loss and Healthy Cooking. But I forgot to emphasize one called Paleo Hacks. You see, the Paleo lifestyle (on which our weight loss program is inspired) has been known to melt away stubborn fat, keep your blood sugar in check, and increase energy. It's also a KEY COMPONENT to avoid suffering from Insulin Resistance (the nightmare condition that Carissa always warns you about!). This is precisely why, as a chef I feel responsible for warning you and showing you exactly what to do to avoid gaining weight and risking it all eating junk. By definition Insulin resistance (IR) is a pathological condition in which cells fail to respond normally to the hormone insulin. ... When the body produces insulin under conditions of insulin resistance, the cells are resi

Which foods do people think are healthy but are actually unhealthy?

Article by Gabrielle Sheehan, www.quora.com I’ve been trying to eat healthier lately, so I’ve actually been doing research in this same issue! I realized because I used to drink the Chobani yogurt smoothies for breakfast because greek yogurt is healthy and these drinks were loaded with protein. It wasn’t until a roommate pointed out how full of sugar these drinks are. Here are some other things I found that are actually not as healthy for you as you would think: Salad dressing from the grocery story. The majority of the time salad is a healthy option but, most of the premade and bottled dressings have a ton of calories. Try mixing up your own simple dressing at home when making salad! Vegan baked goods. This doesn’t apply to all vegan goods, but make sure you are looking at the nutritional facts when you are choosing the vegan option to “be healthy”. Most vegan foods are loaded with tons more sugar and end up being 3X the amount of calories as the non-vegan option. Flavored

These 4 Foods Accelerate AGING (beware!)

by Mike Geary - Certified Nutrition Specialist & Catherine Ebeling - RN, BSN Authors of the best seller: The Top 101 Foods that FIGHT Aging I have a brand new article for you today that is a MUST-READ if you want to protect your skin, organs, muscles, and joints from aging... I'm going to show you 4 common foods that you might be eating every day that can actually make you age FASTER... so beware of these: Do you eat these harmful foods that AGE you faster?  Some are even deceptively marketed to you as "healthy" by giant food corporations.  Avoid or minimize these and look 5-10 years YOUNGER than your real age. Due to biochemical reactions in your body that occur with every type of food you eat on a daily basis, some foods age you FASTER than your real age, while other foods help to FIGHT aging. Eat the wrong foods regularly, and you can look and feel 10 or more years OLDER than your real age (not fun!) ... but eat the right foods, and over time, you can star

Are Vitamin/Mineral Supplements Necessary or Just Money Down the Toilet?

By Mike Geary, professional Fitness Trainer www.truthaboutabs.com As a fitness professional, I receive questions about vitamins all the time. Questions like……What kinds should I take? How much? Should I take a multi or just a couple of the important individual ones like C, E, calcium, or zinc? Will they help me lose weight or build muscle? So with all the talk and hype about vitamin and mineral supplements…Are they really necessary for optimal health? The answer is a definitive…..HELL NO! That is, if you’re eating a balanced healthy diet, which most people don’t. Let me put it this way…a vitamin/mineral supplement probably will be somewhat beneficial to you if you have a poor diet. However, if you’re really serious about getting lean and ripped and truly healthy for good, why would your diet be poor? So, in the case that you’re eating a healthy, balanced diet, the answer is that you don’t need a vitamin supplement. Let’s think about this for a second. Did humans thrive on the plan

Beware Of These Deadly Fatty Foods

1. Hydrogenated oils (source of artificial trans fats) These are industrially produced chemically altered oils subjected to extremely high pressure and temperature, with added industrial solvents such as hexane for extraction, and have a metal catalyst added to promote the artificial hydrogenation, followed by bleaching and deodorizing agents…..and somehow the FDA still allows this crap to pass as food. These oils aren’t even worthy of your lawnmower, much less your body! They’ve been linked to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and more. Even small quantities of as little as 1 to 2 grams of trans fats/day have been shown in studies to be dangerous. For comparison, if you eat a normal order of fries at a fast food joint or any restaurant, you can easily get 5 grams or more of trans fats. Now if as little as 1 gram daily can be dangerous to your health, imagine what you’re doing to yourself with 5 grams…and that was only the fries! What about all of the cookies, cakes,

I struggled for years with a fat belly, until I found this 1 secret.

Common food mistakes that keep your abs hidden by fat

A few days ago, I sent you the interview which discussed various training aspects to consider for stripping off stubborn belly fat and uncovering those six pack abs that everyone wants.

One of the most important messages I try to teach my readers in this world of heavy confusion is that your diet doesn't need to conform to any of the fad diets... you do

Post Workout Meal : Secrets to a Hard, Lean Body

As you’ve probably heard before, your post-workout meal may very well be your most important meal of the day. The reason is that when you’re finished with an intense workout, you’re entering a catabolic state where your muscle glycogen is depleted and increased cortisol levels are beginning to excessively break down muscle tissue. These conditions (if left to go too long) are not good and the only way to reverse this catabolic state (and promote an anabolic state) is to consume a quickly digestible post-workout meal as soon as you can after training. The goal is to choose a meal with quickly digestible carbs to replenish muscle glycogen as well as quickly digestible protein to provide the amino acids needed to jump start muscular repair. The surge of carbohydrates and amino acids from this quickly digested meal promotes an insulin spike from the pancreas, which shuttles nutrients into the muscle cells. The post-workout meal should generally contain between 300-500 calories to g

Nothing's hotter than a guy who can dunk

Source: www.vertshock.com This is what I heard the other day when I was leaving my gym. Two girls were chilling near the basketball court at the back of my gym complex. They were watching a 3-on-3 game which abruptly ended when the biggest guy decided to jump straight up, knock the defender flat on his ass and dunk on him while he was laying sprawled on the blacktop. That's when the blonde cheekily whispered this confession to her smoking-hot Asian friend in pink sweatpants: "Nothing's hotter than a guy who can dunk." And can you guess what the Asian hottie replied? She whimpered: "Uh huhhh!" This got me thinking. I mean, for as long as I can remember I've always wanted to dunk. It's been a lifelong dream of mine, but I really had no idea girls found it hot. I guess it makes sense though since most people have this belief you need to be the most athletic dude around to be able to jump that high. But the fact is that's just not

Never Say "This Is Your Fault" To Your Partner

Why do we react so differently to things our partners say compared to what friends and acquaintances say to us? When your pals are talking to you, you tend to skim the surface of their words. Sometimes it’s really hard to keep this one in, especially when it is actually their fault. You probably already know that pointing fingers isn’t going to help win your ex back, but lets stop and take a look at exactly why this is such a lousy strategy. In my How To Get Ex Back course, I explain something you may not realize just yet. Your relationship really is over and gone for good now. But that’s okay, because you get to build a brand-new, much better relationship with your ex. Part of that process is eventually going to involve talking about what went wrong the first time and how you can avoid it this time. But that’s much, much further down the line. If you’re still at the breakup stage and you’re talking about blame, then you’re not building a new relationship, you’re reliving t

How Wealthy People Own or Create ‘Money Magnets’

One of the things I’ve noticed in the past decade and a half is that anyone who has become successful did so by creating their own ‘money magnets.’ Maybe you know someone who owns real estate, and they’re making money on a weekly or monthly basis from their rental property. Or maybe you know someone who owns their own coffee shop or bakery, and is making money from that business, while their employee runs the day-to-day operations. I consider these to be ‘money magnets’—in other words, a money making machine! What a ‘Money Magnet’ Is A money magnet is a source of income that’s coming in, in addition to your career, or your job, and one that continues to come in while you vacation, or get injured and can’t work, or while you sleep. Your job isn’t a money magnet, because that’s money made for the number of hours you worked. Even if your salary is higher than most (being a doctor or lawyer for example), you are paid a salary for the amount of time you work each week. You a

5 Mindfulness Habits To Lose Weight Easily

Habits, busy lives, stress… This not only leads to the choices of what we eat, but HOW we eat. Mindful eating is becoming important, especially in a fast-paced society of on-the-go meals and convenience. It actually has its roots in Buddhist teachings with an aim towards enjoying the experience of eating versus just filling up your fuel tank. So what is being mindful? Being mindful is being in the here and now, in the moment. Mindfulness focuses on the very present, and not thinking about anything else that is going, especially anything negative. It’s avoiding all that clutter floating around in your head and focusing on exactly what is going on at this very moment. It is slowing down to think before you act. Mindful eating is being aware of the nurturing aspects of eating, rather than only eating impulsively because you are hungry. By paying attention to what your body really needs, you will find yourself making better food choices. You will gain awareness of how you can make

Black pepper can help to reduce blood sugar in type 2 diabetes?

I read that black pepper can help to reduce blood sugar in type 2 diabetes mellitus. How true is this and if so, how does it work? Black pepper In case of diabetes type 2, I wont say black pepper “cures” the disease, it rather just helps prevent it in the first place and then later helps combat against diabetes related complications. As for how it works, black pepper inhibits key enzymes linked to the disorder and reduces fluctuations in blood sugar level. It is known to as well as known as a key antioxidant which helps diabetics overcome their condition. Moreover, Black pepper forms, including black pepper essential oil or black peppercorns, have been observed to show impressive antibacterial effects; yet another way in which this wonderful seasoning promotes the health of the digestive tract. These potentials of black pepper help stabilize blood sugar levels, regulate hyperglycemia and reduce free radical damage. Recent research published in the Proceedings of the National
