Awaken the gatekeepers of America as an enemy, against our great country. The villain lives in the compromise and disbelief of its citizens. The weapon against this enemy of our nation uses its forging of lust and desire in his people. This enemy advances in sleep and sleep his prey. This intruder spreads like Grasshopper say an estimated 35% of all Americans, as their victims. As we unmask these murderers we find their identity is obesity, and America has compromised your heart, your mind is clouded and weakened your body.
In former President Clinton's final word in the winter governors meeting in February 2006, he called on America's governors, An active role in the fight against obesity in children. President Clinton was quoted as saying, "nine million children and adolescents are overweight and have a chance of 70%, to adults are overweight or obese." He went on to say that "we must act now to this deadly trend. If we do not, this could be the first generation that will have a shorter life expectancy than their parents." Hospital costs associated with child and youth obesity have 300% over the last 20 years, from $ 35 million to $ 127 million in 1999. In 2004 a study conducted by Emory University showed obesity accounted for 27% of growth in spending on health care. Clinton stood study published in Health Affairs estimated that the United States more than 4 trillion US dollars on health care by 2015. Obesity is an enemy that is not only threatens our health and life expectancy, but our country is bankrupt in the process. The importance and the rise in obesity in childhood, it speaks against the scientific community's position is that obesity is caused by a genetic code that needs to be discovered. If this is so, why should they now show, in which children in the last two decades?
Another health in relation to obesity enemy attack America and its children is IRS, no not the people from Washington, but insulin resistance syndrome and metabolic syndrome. Both obesity and IRS are growing epidemic in the pace and when her story wings of the mirror each other. Why should this be? Answer, because the same lifestyle factors that cause them are found in both. Also see what happens with the children, it was outrageous for a child to have IRS or Type II diabetes, known as a first or adult-onset diabetes, science has quickly renamed. In the past 20 years, childhood and adolescence, Type II diabetes has become sentences experts describe as an epidemic. If this is just in the genetic origin, why it would be reflected in the last two decades. In April 2006 a team of scientists at the Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) announced that they have a genetic variant, which in ten percent of the surveyed people at increased risk of obesity in European and African descent. Researchers with families from the well-known Framingham Heart Study found that a common genetic variation analysis in the vicinity of the gene INSIG2 (insulin-induced-Gene2). The study showed that persons who are in possession of this gene were 10% likely to be overweight or obese. The risk is reported in both adults and children. Hidden in the report is the most important part of the discovery. Michael Christman, PhD. Professor and Chairman of the Board of Genetic's at BUSM said, "the old version obesity, and most likely originated prior to the migration from Africa. In most cases, a pre-deposition as a genetic signature in this study may also be a specific environment to show it is effective. ", in other words, it is lifestyle (poor diet and lack of exercise), or other environmental causes effect.
In bring it to a study reported in the New England Journal of Medicine in March 2006, authors of the study believe that the current rates of obesity reduction of American life expectancy, reversing a 200 year trend. Co-author of the study, Dr. David Ludwig of Children's Hospital in Boston, was quoted saying, "we have no clear vision of how a nation for solving the obesity epidemic."
Anyone would be deceived if they said they have answers to all questions relating to the cause and the solution to obesity. In an academic environment that is hungry for knowledge, the media and an atmosphere quickly headline news release, poor wisdom was in the publication of its results to the public. This has led to weight loss as a big business in our country, full of half truths and broken promises, the best to treat and cure a few of us of this growing problem. The Bible warns us of a time, "They will be around them a great number of teachers to say what their etching ears want to hear it from the truth and myths to shoot." It could not graer as the truth in our fight with obesity.
America is also need to lose weight, it must be cured. Obesity in this country is beyond the means of short-term diet concepts, weight loss or magic, which relieve us of the responsibility of the lifestyle reform. We must stop trying to treat the symptoms of obesity, but to the real root of the problem. Our way of life no longer support the hormonal design of our bodies, our battle against thousands of years of hormonal development, and this is a battle we can not win. The Obesity Association of America on the Web-site list obesity as a complex disease caused by poor nutrition, lack of exercise, or genetic inheritance influences, stress, cultural and sleep deprivation. The only one that is outside our control, the genes, our parents handed to us. The solution should be clear focus on what is in our control and the responsibility to control. The answer LIFESTYLE, and more LIFESTYLE LIFESTYLE.
The scope of this article is not to reply to any obesity, but a door to open, to understand that the cure of this disease lies within us. We must learn our body to activate natural ability to heal itself. To develop this healing power, first you need to see that we as human beings are complex and in the development of the spirit, soul and body. If there is a problem in one area will impact other than good. If you believe this to be true, then you are ready to win this fight with obesity. As a nutritionist, herbalist and healing minister, I believe the only lasting answer to weight loss and better health in the holistic process, one that will involve the direction of the mind, the acceptance of the spirit, will and emotions, and the discipline of The body to carry it out. If you are overweight you must not be deceived and believe this is only a physical problem, but beliefs, fears or even better now support this problem, and a free will, decides to maintain it. I remind you, our focus is not only to lose weight but to be healed in the first step in process.
The Holistic weight loss is the cleaning bring to the whole body, back here I speak not only the physical body, but the mind as well. In my practice, most nutritional obese patients, I see that a diet is too high in refined carbohydrates and saturated fats and too low in fiber. Many are overweight and suffer from constipation or irritable bowel, is a sign of a toxic or unclean colon, influenced by fecal matter. Most natural healers believe that 90% of all diseases directly or indirectly caused by a colon impure or unhealthy. How is the mucilage the walls of the large intestine to protect against toxic substances in the bloodstream, but also prevents nutrition metabolism of food from the blood robs the body of vital energy for life. If you suffer from the complications of an unhealthy colon a good detoxification program is not only to the colon, liver, kidney and blood and lymphatic system, this is a better absorption and assimilation of food, as you agree to a healthy eating plan .
Our mind is like the colon, it is with a toxic build un-forgiveness, past failures, disappoint and hidden pain. If left untreated, this spiritual toxicity as a poison to our physical body. So how does this effect are weight? If there is a sense of seriousness in our hearts, it will cause a sense of seriousness on our body. Think of your mind as a tree, and your body is the fruit of the tree. The state of the fruit, reflects the health of the tree, it will be hard, if you stay physically healthy mentally ill. So many times I have overweight clients, a personal relationship with God that question. Did you ask for God's help? Too often, the answer is, no I did not think to ask. The Bible says. "They have not because we ask not." True spiritual cleansing, if we humbly before God to ask for forgiveness and his strength in God to forgive ourselves. To ask for God's help in the management of the closed door of our past and build in us the belief that with God all things are possible.
In weight loss program a holistic solution is more than losing weight, but to heal the body naturally in the process. To say it correctly, you have to stay in the natural hormone design of the body, not against it. You say, I have not only healed, I still lose weight. My answer would be, if you are 30 pounds or more overweight affects all of the IRS or metabolic syndrome are present, they can only be silent. This is the most dangerous enemy of all the pain, the silent. Scientists have known for years overweight and obese people are at the highest risk group in type 2 diabetes to develop what they now know, the biological cause of insulin resistance in both.
To lose weight and keep they manage, have your blood sugar. Not only fasting blood sugar test for the doctors, but blood sugar levels 1-2 hours after eating a meal. To accelerate weight loss, you need to slow down blood sugar. After a meal blood sugar levels rise and the pancreas produces insulin, supplies, blood glucose or sugar in the muscle cells. As blood glucose levels drop, drop and insulin levels, the pancreas produces the hormone glucagon and nutrients in the fat cells to be released to the blood and energy extraction. The management of this blood sugar levels rise and drop is important. If blood sugar levels too high insulin-feed the muscle cells and deposits excess sugar into fat cells. If insulin levels are too low, the muscle cells are fed. A slow rise in blood sugar is a good diet for the muscles, and a slower decline to glucagon from the fat cells. So why do we become insulin resistant? Although we could genetically deducted before, it's lifestyle, it brings to the effects. Insulin resistance occurs when some of receptors on the muscle cell membranes accepted insulin to glucose in the cell. Remember how the receptors are doors to the cell and insulin is the key that unlocks the door and the glucose to enter the cell. Insulin resistance leads some of these doors to remain closed, and the blood sugar has no place to go, but remain in the blood or be adjusted to compensate for the fat content cells.
Here 's, where proper nutrition and exercise can prevent or Reverse Insulin Resistance. Eating at least 4 meals a day, about 4 hours apart, consisting of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, low glycemic (again on sugar slowly), and high in fiber, along with good quality proteins and fats cause blood sugar levels to rise slowly. With a slower rise in blood sugar, insulin production, in lesser quantities, but continuously. This allows the receptors that are still working to get food in the cell. Conditioned muscles through exercise and the receptors to get better as a de-conditioned muscles. When diet and exercise are available, I have found that the trace elements such as chromium and vanadium help resistance to insulin receptors. There are many herbs can be effective, that the insulin resistance, but my three favorites are blueberry, turmeric and green tea. I like this, because they also have far-reaching benefits, the overall health and well-being being.
Now that you understand what causes insulin resistance and weight gain is the question, how can you lose weight and keep it off ? The answer will not be found in most diets or weight loss. They undernourished body too aggressive and it is a loss of lean tissue (muscle), and balance and disrupt metabolism. To do it right, the weight lost, it must fat, without the loss of muscle tissue and to keep the balance and the metabolism. You need a balance between anabolic and catabolic metabolism. In simple terms means anabolic build or repair of tissues and catabolic refers to the removal of tissue. This is the most common reason why most diets, the body is trapped in the catabolic phase.
The secret to lose fat without losing muscle begins with not too aggressive or with your extreme reduction of carbohydrates. You need carbohydrates, carbohydrate degradation. I have noticed, by reducing carbohydrates 20% of daily needs, and within 48 hours replenishing the glycogen in the muscles by eating 100% of the daily requirements of carbohydrates, fats loss possible without loss of muscles. Essentially you have two fat burning days, then a recovery day. This gives you the best of both worlds. You will experience fat loss that averages between 1-2 pounds per week, while the muscles are well fed.
As mentioned both good nutrition and exercise keep us from insulin resistant. Although it is no longer to achieve in this article to explain what we should do for the movement, most experts would agree, we should consistently exercise 3-5 times per week for at least 30 minutes. It is also important to know when to exercise, as they relate to the food. Exercise more aggressively on days where muscles get more carbohydrates for fuel and less aggressive, or the days from the receipt of exercise, if fewer carbohydrates. One of the most difficult idea for exercisers to accept is the grate part of the results of the exercise, if we are not true. They come after us on the move and direct response to the muscles, such as food after exercise. The best time to exercise is from 1.5 to 2 hours after meals, when blood sugar and insulin levels back to normal slowly. Your timing of this exercise can decrease the blood sugar to the muscles get from the fat cells efficiently. It is important that they have never exercised without having at least one meal left in the day, so that the muscles can recover exercise.
A from a holistic way of eating is more than maintaining a certain Grae, food is our natural medicine offering health, or can it again. Every meal should be a balanced diet macro-(30% protein, 50% high fiber, low glycemic carbohydrates and 20% fat), and the essential micro-nutrients (vitamins, minerals, enzymes and phytochemicals), the total grain fruit and vegetables . We need to have the food to prevent physical or emotional hunger, but to a higher purpose to heal our bodies, or even better to prevent diseases from forming.
In close, if you wish, the external weight loss of tomorrow must You agree to the internal change of heart today. It takes more than knowing what to do, you have to develop beliefs that you do what you know. You have to be mature, to a place where the spirit, soul and body are in the agreement. To defeat this enemy within, it will take a spirit that is pure, a spirit, that is clear, and a body that obedient.
