Is The Best Weight Loss Plan Also The Best Health Gain Plan?

best weight loss plan

Does what you eat have anything to do with your health?

You know about the Atkins Diet, and the “Low Carb” Diet, and the various weight loss plans that have become widely accepted.

But which is the best weight loss plan?

 

If you carry extra weight you increase your risk for many serious diseases.

Just losing weight will help you become healthier IF you don’t damage your health in the process of losing the weight!

Atkins has been known to damage health due to the high protein intake.

All carbs are not created equal.  If you eliminate a whole food group, you may not be well nourished by the time the weight comes off!

 

Do you understand that your health depends on good nutrition?

Food really is your medicine!

The western world is more concerned with maintaining the status quo than nurturing your health with food.

Your doctor doesn’t think you are willing to make drastic changes in your diet, even if you know that it will save your life!

Other than your doctor’s lack of faith in you, there is really no other reason to refrain from telling you what is known about health and diet.

 

The video below is a presentation from a doctor who is willing to give you the cold hard truth!

It’s about an hour long, but the man is very entertaining, and will make you laugh while he helps you look at food differently!

Please give this video the time to really understand what you NEED to know!

Did you know that steamed skinless chicken will cause you to gain more weight than a hamburger?

I sure didn’t!  Don’t many diets advocate eating skinless chicken?

I’ve not heard the facts around declining kidney function, either!

 

Hearing that a plant based diet can significantly improve health in one to two weeks is very good news!

This makes a whole lot of sense to me because becoming a vegetarian 20 years ago drastically improved my health seemingly over night!

Wouldn’t YOU say that the best weight loss plan is one that improves your health while you drop the weight?

 

How does the idea that “unsafe meats are being sold in United States” sit with you?

Be encouraged that JUST increasing your intake of fresh organic fruits and vegetables will do a world of good WITHOUT eliminating anything at all!

Though, you just heard many reasons why making the shift to a plant based diet could profoundly improve your health!

Apparently the best weight loss plan is a plant based diet!

  • LOSE WEIGHT without going hungry!
  • Powerfully improve heart disease, diabetes, kidney function,  and high blood pressure!
  • Lower blood cholesterol without cholesterol lowering drugs that cause confusion, memory loss, elevated blood sugar and new onset diabetes!

 

If you don’t feel like you are ready to take on a plant based diet, you can easily add more good stuff without taking anything away!

Food really IS your medicine!  Get more good stuff and drastically improve your health BEFORE you stop eating your comfort foods!

My family and I have had great results with a nutritional supplement.

This particular supplement is easy for me to trust because of its safe track record.

I have SO much more energy and my 8 year old is having a much easier time in school.

Testimonials around impressive health improvement keep coming from folks who give it a try!

Disease Fighting Nutrition

Be gentle with yourself while you navigate the idea of change.

You can only make the changes you are ready to make.

Many BLESSings,

Carrie Tucker, RCP

  • Relax and Release tension

Do You Know the Risks of Long Term Corticosteroid Use?

Side effects of corticosteroids

If you take into account the long term risks of corticosteroids it will motivate you to improve your health to avoid them or get OFF of them.

If you are using steroids long term, you likely already know that it can be very harmful to stop taking them or even to miss a dose.  When your doctor attempts to wean you off of them, he or she will do it very slowly.  Rapid weaning of steroids can cause dangerous complications!

Respiratory complications can get dangerous fast!

 

The post below was curated from patient.uk.com

This information highlights the importance of notifying caregivers of your steroid use for one year AFTER you take them.

STEROID TREATMENT CARD

Notes for Patients:

  • If you have been taking this medicine for more than 3 weeks, the dose should be reduced gradually when you stop taking steroids unless your doctor says otherwise.
  • Read the patient information leaflet given with the medicine.
  • Always carry this card with you and show it to anyone who treats you. For one year after you stop treatment you must mention that you have taken steroids.
  • If you become ill, or if you come in contact with anyone who has an infectious disease, consult your doctor promptly. If you have never had chickenpox, you should avoid close contact with people who have chickenpox or shingles. If you do come into contact with chickenpox, see your doctor urgently.
  • Make sure the information on the card is kept up to date.

Adverse effects are dose-related and often predictable according to the glucocorticoid actions (eg diabetes, osteoporosis, muscle wasting, neuropsychiatric effects) and mineralocorticoid actions (eg hypertension, and electrolyte and fluid balance).
There is a wide range of adverse effects:

  • Cardiovascular: hypertension; congestive cardiac failure.
  • Central nervous system: mood disturbance (including mania), psychosis, sleep disturbance
  • Endocrine/metabolic: adrenal suppression, growth failure in children, insulin resistance, diabetes, disturbance of thyroid function, hypokalaemia, metabolic alkalosis.
  • Gastrointestinal: gastric effects (peptic ulceration, etc.), fatty liver.
  • Haematopoietic: leukocytosis and other effects (eg reduced eosinophils and monocytes).
  • Immune system:
    • Suppression type IV hypersensitivity (interferes with Mantoux’ test).
    • Inhibitory effects (leukocytes, macrophages, cytokines).
    • Suppression of primary antigen response (important with vaccines).
  • Musculoskeletal system:
    • Myopathy (especially proximal muscles).
    • Osteoporosis.
    • Avascular necrosis of bone.
  • Ophthalmic: cataracts (more common in children), elevation of intraocular pressure, glaucoma.
  • Skin and other systems: moon face, truncal obesity, dorsolumbar hump, acne, thin skin, skin striae (violaceous), impotence, irregular periods.

In addition to the disadvantages of longer-term treatment, there are several clinical scenarios worthy of special mention:

Corticosteroids and surgery

Adrenal suppression caused by steroid therapy may result in an inadequate adrenocortical response to surgery (acute adrenocortical insufficiency can precipitate hypotension and death).

Anaesthetists must be informed when patients have taken corticosteroids within 3 months of surgery

Corticosteroids and live vaccines

Live vaccines should not be given within 3 months of:

  • An adult receiving 40 mg/day of prednisolone or equivalent for more than a week.
  • A child receiving either 2 mg/kg/day for 1 week or 1 mg/kg/day for 1 month.

Corticosteroids in pregnancy and breast-feeding

The 1997 review of the CSM looked at safety in pregnancy and lactation. This stressed again the importance of weighing risk and benefit.

Corticosteroids and infection

Corticosteroids affect the severity and clinical presentation of infections as well as susceptibility to infections.

original source of article:  www.patient.co.uk

 

This information also highlights the importance of attending to your health sooner than later!

You may get sick enough to warrant the use of corticosteroids if you don’t do the work that needs to be done now!

Bless Your Heart with the Life Breath Club and you won’t need to worry about health crisis!

Bless Your Heart 

  • learn to process your emotions with your breathing

In order to cause rapid healing and avoid health crisis and hospitalization!

PS-  Your health will improve quickly!

You’ve got to be pretty sick to consider high blood pressure and congestive heart failure to be risks worth taking!
