Question: What is a great “diet” or fast to get me unbloated?
I just need to get rid of water and/0r salt bloat. Whats a good fast or liquid fast? How about juiceing diets? And I use the word diet meaning a change in eatting! Please do not answer with nasty comments about diets ( past questions!) I just love to eat healthy and would like to detox! I have been bad! Bad foods, late night eatting…etc! Thanks!

You can’t do it fast and right at the same time. If you got a wedding to go to and need to drop some water weight just go to Sauna/Steam room and just sit there and sweat some extra water out of you. If you just want to lose weight the right way than eat GOOD food and excercise. Nothing new I’m sure.

Successful Healthy Diet Plan

Before delving more on what a good it is necessary to understand what it means to each of us. Quite simply, when we hear this term our minds immediately conjure up visions of having to eat salads minus any dressings and we also believe that it means eating toasts from whole grains and without butter. In a nutshell, this kind of diet will, to most of us, mean having to eat boring foods each and every day of our lives. However, this is not the real truth because you can create a diet plan that is healthy interesting and effective.

The right kind of can actually be made to be quite interesting and it can go beyond eating dishes that contain no fat and it also means eating foods other than tasteless and bland dishes with few calories in them. You can certainly continue to eat tasty items of foods and you can also change the type of foods you eat so that you are not forced into eating the same types of foods day in and day out.

You only need to start off the plan by looking at a food pyramid and then find out which foods from this pyramid can help you achieve a healthier body. To get more options you should search over the net to find out from the many different sites what foods are good for you and which recipes you should make use of to create the right kind of healthy but enjoyable foods.

Even after you have created a diet plan that consists of healthy foods it is necessary that you act with resolve and determination in sticking to the diet plan and not giving up when things become slightly more difficult. In addition, you have to learn to avoid certain kinds of messages that are promoted by various kinds of media in which the message is skewed in order to serve certain purposes.

And, once you have identified the right diet plan to keep you healthy you must then persevere in following this diet and not give too easily when things become difficult. It is also a good idea to steer clear of misleading messages being spread by the media that are trying to put across certain ‘facts’ in order to promote their own agendas.

The good news is that following a healthy food diet does not in any way mean that you have to permanently give up eating pizzas or other foods that you love to eat. All that is required is that instead of eating an entire pizza that you limit your consumption to a single part of the pizza.

And, if you love chocolate bars then you only need to remember to eat the bar over several days and not in a single go.

A does not mean having to fit your body into a straightjacket. Instead it means eating healthy foods which in turn involves avoiding extreme actions and instead you have to focus on consuming healthy foods and being sensitive to the needs of your body

Q&A: Is my WeightLifting diet healthy?

Admin — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 15:38:20 +0000

by thefuturistics

Question: Is my WeightLifting diet healthy?
Ive been currently trying to redefine a “Healthy Diet” for something that works for me, im a 5’9 m 190lb and going for cut! i have a 23% body fat and im working for some toning this is what my daily intake of food is like:

Pre Work out/Breakfast: 1 Whey Protien Shake with milk, with 3 scrambled Eggs and a small bowl of oatmeal.

Lunch/Post work out: 2 Chicken sandwiches with water or gatorade or id eat 2 PB&J with milk..

Dinner: Fried Rice with 5 eggs

Pre Sleep: 1 Protein Shake for recovery

What should i cut back on or what should i increase please help!

Answer:

Answer by b_morrow_98
I’d cut back on the eggs. You may want to try egg beaters or just egg whites for your fried rice and egg dishes. Supplement the loss of protein with powder or soy. Cut the breads and use more whole grain. Just eat more chicken.

Don’t forget lots of green leafy vegetables (Broccoli, spinach) great source of minerals.

Q&A: How do you define a “diet?”?

Admin — Sun, 12 Jun 2011 00:36:30 +0000

by alui0000

Question: How do you define a “diet?”?
To me I feel like people have made diets synonymous with the word temporary. Meaning that they basically eat junk get to a point where they need to lose weight and then decide eat healthy, follow a fad diet, or don’t eat at all and once they lost their weight, they resume their normal course of eating. It’s a constant cycle which seems to give it a temporary connotation.

I feel like it should means a lifestyle change, meaning that’s it permanent that your always going to eat healthy because simply its good for your body. I guess that’s why I hesitate to use the word “diet” in my answers.

Answer:

Answer by Dave
Your right, it is a lifestyle change. I learned that a long time ago. Most people in the world dont understand that, they lose a few pounds, get to where they want to be, and then forget about all the stuff they learned about eating right and exercising, and they get fat again. Most the time they get even fatter before they went on a “diet.”

Q&A: Can you GAIN “healthy” weight using the Blood Type Diet?

Admin — Wed, 08 Jun 2011 11:36:30 +0000

Question: Can you GAIN “healthy” weight using the Blood Type Diet?
I don’t know, sounds kind of suspect to me. Has anyone tried it or currently using it? And if so, how did it (is it) working out for you? I’m mostly interested in hearing from people who have used this “diet” or “style of eating” rather to gain weight. Thanks for any and all answers!
Protect Those in Need, I don’t understand your answer…I’m asking if you can gain healthy weight using this diet…and then you said. “No, use the healthy way” Sooooooo…this is the unhealthy way??!?!!

Answer:

Answer by *Protecting-Those-In-Need*
no, do it the healthier way not that way.

Why do some women (and men, lol) have all these different diets when they can just follow the “Sunnah Diet”?

Question: Why do some women (and men, lol) have all these different diets when they can just follow the “Sunnah Diet”?
Salamulaykoum, hope your all well Insha Allah.

I have noticed that some women (and some men) say they’re on diets and then when I ask them, “how’s your diet?”, they always end up saying:

a) “I’ve put on more weight!!”
b) “I’ve changed my diet…”
c) “I’ve come to a conclusion that diets just don’t work for me!”
or d) “What diet? I said I was a on diet? Girl, I must have been high!” lol. And then an hour later, they look in the mirror and remember their diet haha

I used to be one of those women but Insha Allah not anymore, lol. I’ve changed my diet to the ‘Sunnah diet’.
- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - -
Allah ta’ala says in the Qur’an:

Aouthubiallah Minashaytanirajeem
Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim

O children of Adam, take your adornment at every masjid, and eat and drink, but be not excessive. Indeed, He likes not those who commit excess. [7:31]

[Saying], “Eat from the good things with which We have provided you and do not transgress [or oppress others] therein, lest My anger should descend upon you. And he upon whom My anger descends has certainly fallen.” [20:81]
- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -
Now some sayings of Prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him):

On the authority of Al-Miqdaam ibn Maadiy-Karib who said: I heard the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying:
“No human ever filled a vessel worse than the stomach. Sufficient for any son of Adam are some morsels to keep his back straight. But if it must be, then one third for his food, one third for his drink and one third for his breath.”
[Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi, An-Nasaa'I, Ibn Majah – Hadith sahih]

On seeing a fat man, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him said:
“If you did not have a paunch (belly fat), it would be better for you. He also said: Overeating does not go with good health.”
[Al-Haythami]

The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:
“Food for one is enough for two and food for two is enough for three and food for three is enough for four.”
[Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi, An-Nasaa'I, Ibn Majah – Hadith sahih]
- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -
At the end of the day, Allah ta’ala would not have willed for the Qur’an ayats to be revealed or the ahadith to be said if our diet was not important. Diet does not mean necessarily to lose weight but rather to maintain a healthy lifestyle and doing what’s best for your body. We are the caretakers of our bodies and we must keep them in good shape because Allah ta’ala owns our bodies. Think of it like this, if a friend lent you their favourite item and you gave it back to them in a horrid state, think about how your friend would feel…

So my sisters and brothers, let us not indulge in all these scam diets. They’re just wasting your time and efforts. I mean c’mon some “slimming programmes” don’t come cheap and they’re not that effective, are they? Why use a money making scam when you can follow a free, halal and part of your faith, diet? Alhamdulillahi Rabilalamin.

All the best everyone and Insha Allah I hope someone gets inspired to start eating according to the Sunnah.

Honestly, you don’t need to deprive yourself from food, just try to eat only when you need to. Don’t eat too much. This might start out hard (I’ll be honest, it’s quite hard for me since I’m a greedy so and so ) but subhnallah, in a week I already have felt like I’ve achieved something. I feel more active and I feel less heavy just by using the 1/3 rule.

I’ve also started to sit on the floor. When I sit on the floor I also press my stomach against my leg, (I can’t describe the position properly, if someone can find the hadith, I’d be grateful) just so that I feel fuller quicker So I eat less anyway.

Anyways, take care
Wa Alaykoum As Salam Wa Rahmatuallah:)
Oh gosh, sorry that it’s a bit long.

Healthy Diet Recipes – Key to a Healthy Lifestyle

Today, we all are living in a very fast society. People don’t have time, to pay attention to their eating habits. Recent studies have shown due to this fast lifestyle, people are becoming obese. Obesity is the root of different problems. More and more people are habitual for having junk food that has a lot of fat content. No one follows healthy diet recipes. In fact very less people are aware about healthy diet and nutritional value of food items. Food that we all take, lack balanced nutrients, vitamins, minerals, etc.

It is not only with people of one particular nation, this is the scenario worldwide. Fast food outlets have become our second home. Not only adults but children are also suffering from obesity. The food that we eat is not sufficient for daily body requirements and this is why we lose health. Healthy diet recipes are made on the concept of food nutrition and calorie count. Such diets are well balanced and provide the elements which are required by our body in absolute quantity.

Some people think that healthy cooking food items lack taste but it is not true. Food experts like dieticians and nutrition experts suggest several ways that keep the food tasty and also healthy. There are a lot of magazines and food guides available in markets that give different healthy recipes tips. You must refer such reading material and start eating healthy food items. You will feel the change yourself. In fact a lot of people have started taking balanced diets and they eat food as per its nutritional value and contents. Many of such people have reported a better lifestyle and they feel healthy and strong.

Healthy food items help us develop strong immunity that fight germs, bacteria, etc. and of course save us from diseases. Healthy diet recipes also provide a lot of opportunities to have different food items so that you don’t get bored and miss the food items that you were taking before having planned diet. Having healthy food is simply enough to give us feeling of freshness and sound health. Many people got benefitted by just changing their eating habits. They are now more healthy, enjoy their work, stay fresh for long and even do not feel need to go to gym or health clubs.

To begin with healthy food items, first of all, you need to start taking a look at the nutritional value, they give. Avoid having food item that has much higher calorie content. Such food item, generally have much fats that increases cholesterol level in our body and therefore chances of blood pressure and heart attacks increase. Food items that lack fiber content are very difficult to digest by our digestive system and therefore such items are to be avoided.

Nutritious Healthy Diet Plan That Works!

By: Isabelle S. Mihajlov
Posted: Nov 03, 2009

A good healthy diet plan should include your personal goals. Some are interested in losing weight, others maintaining a strong immune system, others, feeling good with lots of energy. Your goals and desires will determine what kind of plan would be best for you. Whatever your goal is, you need a plan.
Healthy diet food should include a balanced intake of water, protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Both deficiencies and excesses can be harmful to the body’s efficiency and health. For example, not eating enough vegetables and fruit can develop a weak immune system. A personalize meal planner is needed to give you a delicious and healthy suggestions for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and desserts.

A customized plan program is put together in assisting you accomplish your own personal goals and provide continuous motivation on reaching your goals. The plan should also include friends that will hold you accountable and encourage you.
How does a healthy diet keep me from getting sick?
It is no secret that a healthy diet is essential for maintaining a strong immune system. Sickness is caused because of basically two things, toxicity and nutritional deficiency. Deficiency means that cells are missing something that they need in order to function correctly. Toxicity means that cells are poisoned by something that prevents proper function.
Good health is directly related in making wise choices on what you eat or put into your body. Usually this involves consuming necessary nutrients by eating the appropriate amounts from all of the food groups, and avoiding other “substances” that are toxic and can harm your body’s health.

Alkaline Diet is a good example of a healthy and nutritious diet.

What are a Healthy Diet Essentials?
Healthy diet food should include a balanced intake of water, protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Both excesses and deficiencies can be harmful to the body’s health and efficiency.
Food is the “fuel” to energize the body. Therefore, choosing the right kind of “fuel” is vital for abundant energy and perfect health. Unfortunately, our society today has created an unhealthy demand for heavily processed, “on-the-go,”foods. These are stripped of important nutrients and are overloaded with refined sugars,chemicals, refined grains, additives, and preservatives. Additionally, many modern foods contain excessive amounts of pesticides, antibiotics, artificial substitutes, growth hormones, and heavy metals.

How do you know what to eat?
Suggestions on what and how much to eat can be confusing, especially when faced with varied and conflicting nutritional advice.

Below are some suggestions on building a healthy diet.
Simple Good Foods:
Nutrient-dense, organic, whole foods which are free of unhealthy contaminants, containing a proper balance of carbohydrates, protein, good fats are the best foods. It is vital to find foods that easily assimilate into your body and are also rich in minerals, vitamins, enzymes, essential fatty acids (EFAs).
You may have heard the saying, if it does not rot or sprout, do without. The foods that give life and energy to your cells are, fresh, living, raw, sprouting, and would rot if not consumed in a short period of time.

Daily supply of 20-30 grams of Fiber:

Dietary fiber helps in removing the toxins that have built up in your colon over time, thus allowing the digestive system to function more efficiently. With a clean colon, more nutrients are better absorbed from food, and toxins are eliminated from the colon before they have a chance to harm your health. A sample of high-fiber foods—includes vegetables, beans, fruits, and whole grains.

Probiotics

These are the “good” bacteria or “microflora” that is vital in helping fight the “bad” bacteria present in our bodies. Probiotics are especially needed if you are taking antibiotics, since they are destroying the good and bad bacteria’s in your body. In order to benefit us, the probiotics must “survive” the trip through our stomach and into our colon where it can promote good health.

Supplements:

Immune System supplements are also needed because it is a challenge today to get sufficient nutrition from the foods we eat. The foods we eat are over-processed and void of many essential nutrients, grown in soils that have been over-planted and saturated with synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Vitamin and mineral deficiency subjects us to more aging, sickness, diseases, and the weakening of our immune system. The good news is that it is possible to obtain the nutrients our bodies need from good supplements found in selected foods, vitamins, minerals, and herbs.

Healthy Diet Information – Your Quick Guide

By: Janet Dawson
Posted: Apr 05, 2010

]]>

It is very simple to follow a healthy diet but with limited healthy diet information, a diet as simple as ABC becomes as complicated as a very technical science project. Actually, a healthy diet simply involves eating more vegetables, fruits, cereals, bread, potatoes, and pasta. If you want to equip yourself with healthy diet information, you’ve come to the right page because this article will allow you to do so.

The basic food groups are perhaps one of the most significant healthy diet information anyone who want to become healthier should know. The basic food group is classified into five and a healthy diet requires that you pick at least 1 food from each food group eaten in moderate amounts. Here are some other things you need to know about these food groups.

1. Starchy Foods

Starchy foods are a great source of carbohydrates and fiber. Included in this food group are cereals, noodles, rice, pasta, potatoes, and bread. Since this food group is an excellent source of carbs and fiber, it is very important to include them in our daily meal. Aside from fiber and carbs, this food group is also known as an excellent source vitamin B complex.

2. Fruits and vegetables

Mother Nature has endowed us with a large variety of fruits and vegetables, and this in one thing to be grateful for because foods under this food group are rich in vitamins, fibers, minerals, and enzymes, well known for a big number of health benefits. Vegetables, especially those green leafy ones are rich in iron while fruits, especially those under the citrus variety are rich in calcium and vitamin C. RDA for foods from this group is around 5 or more servings a day.

3. Milk and dairy products

This food group includes yogurt, butter, cream, cheese, milk, and yoghurt. Foods from this group are great source of proteins and calcium. Dairy products are also an excellent source of vitamins A, B, and D. Calcium is responsible for healthy bones while vitamin D is necessary for bone building and maintenance. Milk products on the other hand are rich in fats which are known for building up the body and providing energy.

4. Meat, fish, and poultry group

According to different healthy diet information, this food group is a very important source of iron, zinc, vitamin B, and protein – all nutrients needed for body growth and repair. However, you should not forget that foods from this food group must be eaten in correct proportion. Meats must be of leaner cuts and all visible fats must be removed to ensure a really healthy body. 2 servings a day of foods from this food group are said to be a healthy practice.

5. Foods with fats and sugars

A lot of people, especially those who are on diet, often neglect this food group but actually, foods from this food group are excellent sources of energy needed by the body. This food group includes foods such as margarine, butter, ice cream, cream, cooking oils, low-fat spreads, salad dressings, mayonnaise, chocolate, biscuits, cakes, pastry foods, sweets, and crisps. However, all these foods must be eaten is moderate amounts only.

With enough healthy diet information, there is no doubt that you can be healthier and fitter. You can take advantage of different information but make sure that these pieces of information are accurate.

Adopting a Healthy Diet ? What Does That Entail?

Everyday, people are faced with a wide selection of food options. Your local grocery store has hundreds of food offerings. You will find several aisles with numerous food options. A local restaurant can offer several pages of dishes that you can choose from. Indeed, you are bombarded with numerous food choices on a daily basis. It’s not surprising why some people cannot plan a healthy diet regimen very well.

On top of this, people have to deal with an onslaught of information from various media. You would find advertising promoting McDonalds or Pizza Hut. Every ad is designed to convince you to give in to your sweet cravings. On the other hand, you get nutritionists and health gurus warning you of the dangers of junk foods. You would also find health experts promoting one form of healthy diet after another.

With many options and contrasting information, it is not surprising that people are having difficulty figuring out what a healthy diet exactly is. People are constantly having problems controlling their weight and their eating habits. If you are having the same problem, you are probably giving in to indulgences and you are likely overeating. However, the importance of a healthy diet cannot be overstressed. To help you achieve a healthy diet, you need to arm yourself with vital nutrition information that will help you determine proper food choices.

Moderation is the Key to a Healthy Diet

If you want to maintain a healthy diet, you really don’t have to forego chocolates, ice creams or cakes as long as you eat them in small amounts. You need to practice moderation when it comes to eating. Overeating is the number one cause of obesity and moderation is actually the essential key to maintaining good health. But how do you this?

Basically, eating food in moderation comes with attention. You need to pay attention to what you are eating and to the amount of food that you have eaten. One of the many reasons why people tend to overeat is that they fail to notice whenever their bodies are telling them that they have had enough food. It is important that you learn to eat slowly. You need to be aware of how much you have consumed, so that you would know when you have had enough food.

To eat in moderation, you should avoid second helpings. You should opt for regular sized meals instead of the largest items in a restaurant. You should be particularly conscious of the amount of food you have consumed when you are eating “junk foods”. Again, you don’t have to avoid it altogether, but you need to be a conscious eater. If you are going to eat cookies, don’t eat directly from the box. Often people will only discover that they have eaten a lot once they have realized that they have finished the whole box.

Be Conscious of When You Eat

Aside from controlling your food intake, you should also be conscious of when you eat. This is part of ensuring a healthy diet. Generally, people are better off eating 5 to 6 small meals per day. This is because the body is unable to process or handle large meals. It tends to convert the food into fats. On the other hand, if you eat small meals a day, your body will be better equipped to handle small amount of foods.

It is also very important that you avoid late night snacking. Your stomach should be empty 3 or 4 hours before you go to sleep. It can be tempting to have a large sandwich at midnight but this habit will take a toll on your weight and health. Your body will merely store the food as fat while you sleep. There’s nothing like waking up with an empty stomach and enjoying a healthy breakfast with your family. Speaking of breakfast, this is one meal that you should never skip. Skipping out on a heavy breakfast will make you crave food the entire day.

Do Not Starve Yourself

Many people think that by starving themselves, they would lose weight. Unfortunately, this rarely happens because once the hunger kicks in and they give in to it, they would likely end up eating huge fatty meals. They also tend to become more obsessed with food and they end up consuming large amounts of food.

Basically, having a healthy diet means eating foods rich in nutrients, eating foods in moderation and being conscious of your eating habits. By adopting a healthy diet, you will live a much better life.
