The Body Sense Natural Diet: Six Weeks to a Slimmer, Healthier You - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: I never worry about diets. The only carrots that interestme are the number you get in a diamond.”— Mae West —Mae West may have been on to something when it comes to diets. Thesad fact is that most diets don’t work because they fail to look at theunderlying cause of weight gain and only focus on caloric intake, carbo-hydrate or protein consumption, and increased exercise. All these factorsare important, but all you dieters who have run thousands of miles on thetreadmill and eaten buckets of carrot sticks must know by now that thereis more to weight loss than just eating low-calorie foods, exercising, andusing a lot of willpower.During the research for The Body Sense Natural Diet, I read every dietbook currently in print and thousands of research papers. Most diet booksprovide good advice that, if followed long-term, would help you lose someweight. But the sad story is that most dieters gain back one- to two-thirdsof the weight they lost by the end of the first year, and almost all theweight will be gained back (and more!) within five years. The question iswhy. Stress, emotions, aging, and other factors play a role.1IntroductionI n t r o d u c t i o n2The key to permanent weight loss is well hidden. It lies in understand-ing how each component of dieting affects the hormones that stimulate,regulate, and control thousands of functions in your body. Those hormonesconspire to make your fat cells bigger, increase your cravings, tell you to eatmore, lower your fat-burning rate, and disrupt your blood sugar. None of thediet books I read explain this or integrate the knowledge into their advice,and yet there are mountains of research on the hormones of obesity.Within the pages of this book you will find the latest scientific break-throughs in fat loss—including which hormones are conspiring to makeyou fat. By using foods, nutrients, and other factors, you can correct hor-monal imbalances and reset your body’s fat-burning furnace, makingweight loss much easier.The Body Sense Natural Diet is a simple guide that takes you throughthe hormonal maze and unlocks secrets to diet success. You must normal-ize key hormones to lose weight and keep it off. Once you understand howfoods and lifestyle factors affect your hormones and make you fat or thin,you will recognize why other diets don’t work.Why am I sure it’s hormones? Think about it. Menopausal womenhave been telling their doctors for decades that the hormonal change theyexperience during this time of transition leads to weight gain that is verydifficult to shed. Women taking hormone replacement therapy, includingestrogen and progestin, also notice large weight gains and are unable tolose that weight. Research has proven that low thyroid slows your meta-bolic rate and causes you to gain weight and resist weight loss.Carbohydrate cravings are directly linked to the hormone serotonin, yourfeel-good hormone. When serotonin is low, your body desires sweet,starchy foods to bring serotonin back to desired levels; nothing will stopyou from eating the wrong foods as you satisfy your body’s need for thishormone. Cortisol, your stress hormone, is directly linked to making fatcells resistant to fat loss.Poor digestive-tract health is also linked to weight gain. Poor digestion,candida yeast, and bacteria overgrowth cause the secretion of hormonesthat expand your pants size. Fat cells themselves are hormone factories:the more fat cells you have, and the bigger they are, the more trouble youwill have losing weight. The research is clear—hormones are key to losingthose unwanted pounds and keeping them off for good.
i'll tell you one damn thing and that's all i know - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: As I read through my journals from the past couple ofyears, in preparation for publishing this book, I could notbelieve the contrast from one 24 hour period to the next.Some mornings I woke with more willpower and positiveenergy than anyone on the planet. Apparently as I slept, thatglee, that pure joyfulness, would sneak out the back door. Iwould wake not knowing what I was doing and being unsureof how I felt, or what the point was. How could that happenovernight? My mother would always tell us kids, growing up,that as quickly as things could turn to crap, that's how quick-ly they could turn themselves around and be good again—verymuch like the way I have written these journals. One daygreat, fantastic! The next...well you'll get the picture.The true journey of the human heart is indeed very diffi-cult. I hope that as you read through these pages you'll recog-nize bits and pieces of yourself within them. We are so alike,and yes, so very different. But I think at the core of all human-ity is the ability to love. No matter what language we speak orwhere we live in the world, the essence of ourselves is made oflove. Love is really all I ever write about. Even tales aboutcleaning "Sweet Maries" from the cat litter, or watching mydad build a squirrel-proof bird feeder, it's all about love. Iwrite about love because I think about love, at some level,every waking minute of the day. Love got me this far, I shallrely on it as I continue onward
