Learn How To Lose Weight Safely With Low Carb Diet

Learn How To Lose Weight Safely With Low Carb Diet

Most reducing diets restrict calorie intake, so you lose weight but some of that is fat and some of it is lean muscle tissue as well. Less muscle means slowed metabolism, which makes losing weight more difficult and gaining it back all too easy.

(PRWEB) January 27, 2005

People diet for two primary reasons, to lose weight, or to improve health--or both. If you are a healthy adult who is not overweight, the food pyramid recommendations of the USDA will work fine, as long as you remember that the carbohydrates that are recommended are those contained in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.

For those who are overweight, or who have diabetes, the low-calorie and low-fat diets recommended by the government do not work well. In fact, for diabetics, they can actually worsen the condition. The only diet that strikes at the real cause of obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, hypoglycemia, and type 2 diabetes is a low-carbohydrate diet. Many doctors and nutritionists are now starting to recognize this.

After being told for years to eat a low-fat, high-carbohydrate balanced diet, Americans are now the fattest people on Earth, and getting fatter every year! The occurrences of adult-onset diabetes is also increasing. We now know, because research has shown, that fat is not the enemy -- carbohydrates are.

On a low-carb diet, you can eat until you're full, as long as you eat only allowed foods. Allowed foods are meats, fish, poultry, eggs, and cheese, plus a limited amount of green vegetables.

The body was designed to eat meat (proteins and fats) and natural vegetables and nuts...mostly low in carbohydrates and high in proteins.

Due to this fact, the body has to be "better" at converting the low amount of carbs in these foods to energy than we now need with today's high carb levels. The result? More and more stored body fat!

Low carb diet or Ketosis Plan, has taken years researching and then carefully developing this diet system that tricks your body into relentlessly burning body fat, while you continue to eat your full three mouth-watering, real food meals each day. And the longer you follow the Ketosis Plan 30-Day Low Carb Diet the closer you will be in your desire to achieve the healthy body of your dreams!

What is a ketogenic diet? "Ketogenic" refers to "ketosis," the state your body enters when your daily carbohydrate intake is below approximately 30 grams. This is the approximate amount

Required (for an average person) to enter ketosis (usually in about three days.)

Ketosis can be "maintained" for most people if the carbohydrate intake remains under 100 grams a day. However, although some diet experts believe that ketosis is a safe condition, it is not necessary to be in ketosis to lose weight. Keep in mind, that when you choose a higher level of carbohydrates than what is needed to bring on ketosis, you may have to limit your total food intake (calories) somewhat in order to lose weight.

However, if you must lose considerable weight, a ketogenic diet is the most efficient method for bringing your weight back down to where it should be.

Bioelements Announces Seventeen Years of Responsible Packaging

Bioelements Announces Seventeen Years of Responsible Packaging

Since its beginning, Bioelements skin care has chosen glass to package its products. Seventeen years later, the brand celebrates its continued efforts to support consumers and the environment with its healthy, sustainable decisions.

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) October 26, 2007

Bioelements is announcing its seventeenth year of responsible packaging. The professional skin care brand has always been committed to excellence. From carefully selected ingredients to unparalleled quality control - nothing gets overlooked. After nearly two decades, one difference between the purity of this skin care line and its competitors has become very clear: its glass packaging.

"Since its launch in 1991, Bioelements has used glass to package nearly all of its products," says Bioelements founder and President, Barbara Salomone. "It's a natural choice for planet sustainability and it ensures the integrity and safety of our formulas. And that's a belief we've never compromised."

With an increase in scientific studies of body-accumulated toxins, there are rising concerns about plastics leaching chemicals into consumables. Bioelements packages primarily in glass to help ensure that every bottle and jar contains only those ingredients meant to be absorbed by the skin. Glass contains no chemicals and undergoes little, if any, interactions with them. Its inertness and impermeability makes glass one of the safest, healthiest packaging materials available. In fact, glass is the only packaging material to be categorized by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration as "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS).

Glass meets the highest environmental standards possible. Made strictly of naturally occurring ingredients, it can be recycled limitlessly - never losing its quality or purity. From creation to recycling, the material's lifestyle is environmentally responsible -- preserving raw material, reducing energy consumption, and lessening greenhouse emissions on a major scale.

"When you package in glass, you tell your customers you care about the purity of your product and its impact on the environment," explains Joseph Cattaneo, President of the Glass Packaging Institute (GPI). "Consumers can be ensured that glass packaging protects the quality and integrity of the products they purchase."

Bioelements packages over 80% of its products in glass. For the past seventeen years, Bioelements has strongly believed in responsibly producing its products - its products are manufactured in the United States, contain no synthetic fragrances or colorants and are not tested on animals. The brand proudly continues to lead the industry with its standards of safety and purity.

Headspace of the Australian Cannabis Culture

Headspace of the Australian Cannabis Culture

We are a legitimate culture seeking our identity free from persecution. Until now we have been silent victims of cultural genocide to the detriment of the health of the planet and its people.

(PRWEB) April 27, 2005

"Welcome to our Headspace," says Editor Wayne Collins as he exhales a plume of sweet smoke thick enough to be from a bush fire. "We are going to combine the three separate arguments for law reform into one magazine, the great industrial hemp hope, medicinal marijuana magic and recreational lubricity matched by nothing else," he said.

"For too long in this country, and indeed around the world, recreational cannabis users have been blamed for denying the sick access to the best available medicine, and for not allowing industry a greener and better crop than anything currently being grown en-masse.

The views expressed in Headspace Australian Cannabis Culture are that we cannabis users, after almost a hundred years of persecution in this country; are seen as less than non-cannabis using citizens in the eyes of the law.

We reject this systemic apartheid. We reject judgments of us as criminals because of our educated decision to embrace the cannabis plant to what ever extent we do.

It is our further belief that users of cannabis are a part of a legitimate culture, the cannabis culture. Continued attempts to eradicate us and our choice of social lubricant to the detriment of farmers and the seriously ill equates to cultural genocide in this country; this multi-cultural country with a monopolistic attitude toward the alcohol industry and social drug use.

We intend to normalise cannabis.

We will be seen as radical by some, zealots by others, probable targets for law enforcement bureaus, and saviours of the smoke by millions worldwide when we succeed. It doesn't matter. We will not stop until there is positive change.

Due for release at Mardi Grass 2005, Headspace Australian Cannabis Culture is available for $4.95 + $2 p&h in Oz, $3 foreign. (Cheque/money order to P. O. Box 698, Nimbin NSW, 2480 Australia, with return address).

Frank Public Relations Adds Worldwide to Name Reflecting Growing Global Healthcare and Technology Focus; Revamped Web Site Features Live Phone Consulting, Free e-Newsletter. Frank Public Relations Worldwide Offers ‘Second Opinion’ Service to Healthcare Executives with Frankly Speaking Live Consulting

Frank Public Relations Adds Worldwide to Name Reflecting Growing Global Healthcare and Technology Focus; Revamped Web Site Features Live Phone Consulting, Free e-Newsletter. Frank Public Relations Worldwide Offers ‘Second Opinion’ Service to Healthcare Executives with Frankly Speaking Live Consulting.

Frank Public Relations today announced a name change to Frank Public Relations Worldwide as it celebrates its five-year anniversary. The change reflects the growing global public relations clientele served by the Los Angeles-based healthcare public relations and marketing company headed by Peggy C. Frank, MBA, a 28-year veteran of healthcare public relations and marketing.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2004

Explaining the name change, Frank says, “It is no secret that business today is truly a global experience. Our name change reflects our comprehensive understanding of the no borders thought-leadership of businesses today.”

Also new are changes to the web site www. frankpr. com, which include a free e-newsletter, and a one-of-a-kind program that enables business executives to arrange for a live phone consultation, billable by the hour using a credit card. Executives may arrange for a consult from 6 am to 11 pm EST.

Frank Public Relations Worldwide is working to change the traditional availability of public relations services for the start-up and small healthcare business owners.

Frank explains, “The traditional PR agency business model needs change. As PR professionals, we need to be more helpful to start-up and small companies who traditionally do not have a significant PR budget, yet truly need PR to advance their value-proposition and grow their company in this ultra-competitive marketplace. This is where the Frankly Speaking Live idea was born – to help start-up and small organizations get the consult and service they need, when they need it, and at a price they can afford.”

Says Frank, “Our long hours of availability are particularly helpful to those in crisis. We know that a crisis can hit at all hours of the day and waiting until the next morning or until the weekend is over to start dealing with a crisis can result in additional damage to the reputation and financial viability of an organization.”

In addition, adds Frank, “The medical community is very familiar with the second opinion choice that many patients pursue prior to electing a course of treatment. We have found that executives want this choice, too, sometimes seeking assurance that their in-house or agency PR counsel is navigating a solid course of action. Frank Public Relations Worldwide’s “second opinion” program offers executives the support and honest counsel they seek.”
