No Carb No Sugar Diet

No Carb No Sugar Diet

Some diets are so good for you, it’s like they turn back the clock and those following the diet look younger than they actually are. That’s because certain diets can help your body heal inflammation and protect your telomeres.

The No Carb, No Sugar Diet can help you feel great, lose weight and get in shape based on the healthy foods that you’ll be eating. The meals on this kind of diet are rich in flavonoids, which boost cell health and have antioxidant effects on the body.

When a diet is rich in colorful foods like the no carb, no sugar diet is, you’ll notice a big difference in the way that you feel. This diet is one that lasts for a specific number of days.

You can change the amount of days from a week to ten days to two weeks. However, most people enjoy the difference in their body so much that they decide to make it a permanent lifestyle change rather than a temporary one.

The way that it works is you choose the number of days you’re going to go carb and sugar free. The purpose behind this method is to rid the body of the effects of sugar exposure.

Because sugar reacts in the body like a drug, you have to be cleansed of it. It affects the pleasure center of the brain, which is why you get sugar cravings and can sometimes feel irritable when you want sugar and don’t get it.

And though natural sugar is better for you than added sugar, it’s still sugar. When you’re on this diet, you’ll stop eating even natural sugar temporarily. But you don’t want to permanently cut fruits out of your life, since you need those vitamins and minerals.

You’ll pause eating dairy foods such as milk and yogurts, since both contain sugar. Even 1% milk can contain a lot of sugar. This diet is good for people who eat too much sugar and would like to break the habit.

It’s also a great diet for people who want to lose weight and concentrate on getting a jump-start on healthy eating. To get started on this diet, you’ll have to learn about the hidden sugars in food.

That means learning how to correctly read food labels as well as understanding the sugar found in many ingredients in your favorite recipes or restaurant meals. You’ll focus your meal plans on foods such as meat and seafood.

You can have eggs, since these have fewer than 1 carb. You can also eat non-starchy vegetables and certain nuts and seeds. By the time you’re finished with the diet, you’ll learn how to make better food choices.

A mistake to watch out for is hidden sugar in condiments. A tablespoon of ketchup can contain almost 4 grams and most people eat way more than just a tablespoon. You’ll also want to watch your wine consumption, since some of these can contain a lot of sugar.

Dubrow Diet

Dubrow Diet

By selecting the right kind of diet, you can not only change the shape of your body and get fit, but you can also boost your energy and look younger. The Dubrow diet teaches people how to  follow an eating pattern that can help them reach their fitness goals.

This diet is known to aid in controlling blood sugar, burning fat and more. The way that it works is fairly simple. Users will use fasting along with lowered caloric intake during certain hours. 

You have a list of foods to eat as well as ones you should avoid. The main gist of the diet is that time matters just as much as the foods you’ll eat. This way of eating is often called interval eating, and the time frame that you would eat within will depend on which phase you’re on.

It’s easy to get started on the diet once you understand the various phases you must cycle through. When you begin phase one, you’re in your jumping off point. This phase is used to help your body get used to the calorie restrictions as well as the limited eating window.

At this point in the diet, you’ll start with the 16 hour fasting. You’ll be able to eat, but only during the remaining 8 hours. In this phase, you’ll concentrate on the types of foods that you eat as well as the kinds of bad food habits you need to let go of.

Depending on how much weight you need to lose, you might be in this phase for awhile. It’s here that you’ll stay until you’ve lost the weight that you want to lose. The meal plan in this phase will be like the prior phase.

You’ll still be doing your fasting along with eating during a certain number of hours. In phase three, you’ll still be adhering to the guidelines from phase two, but this is your body’s maintenance period.

You’ll have lost the weight you wanted to lose and now what you’re concentrating on is keeping it off. At this point, you’re allow to have a cheat day. Each of these phases has a lesson to teach about weight loss as well as specific foods to eat during each phase.

You’ll be able to eat things like protein foods, certain fats, dairy, vegetables and fruits. You’re taught to avoid simple carbs and opt for complex ones instead. The diet is good for people who are struggling with inflammation or who want to lower their risk of it developing.

It’s also good for people who want better heart health or for those who want to get their insulin levels under control.

Noom Diet

Noom Diet

You may have heard of the Noom Diet, which is often referred to simply as Noom. This is an app that you can use to correct your eating habits so that it gives you a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

Thanks to the behavioral changes the app will guide you through, you’ll also lose weight. Once you download the app, you’ll gain access to all the benefits it has to offer as well as the library of information it contains.

You’ll learn about nutrition and how to eat right. You’ll also learn one of the keys to weight loss, which is keeping your stress under control. The app will help you figure out what your health goals are and how to implement them.

There are challenges every week to make weight loss and getting fit fun. You’ll be able to keep track of the milestones you reach with your weight loss as well as the steps you take along the way.

You’ll keep track of the foods that you eat, the exercise routines that you do and your weight as well. But it’ll also track important health benefits, such as your blood pressure and glucose readings.

Something that’s really helpful with this app is that you gain access to coaching assistance, and studies have shown that dieters who have the support and expertise of a coaching team tend to lose more weight and keep it off long term.

Because it’s personalized, Noom lets each individual find success in a way that works for them. The basic strategy of the diet is that you’ll end up eating fewer calories than what your body needs.

When you do that, you will lose weight. You’re not left on your own to figure out how many calories you need to consume. The program will find that for you once you input your information.

It’ll decide this based on how much you currently weigh, what your height and weight are and whether you’re male or female. You’ll get a calorie maximum for each day. What a lot of people love about this app is that you don’t have to give up eating the foods that you love.

You can still have all your favorites, but in moderation as long as you stay within your caloric limits. Within the app, you’ll have access to helpful food lists as well as recipes that you can use to plan your meals.

The tool is perfect for people who need hands on help with dieting as well as the encouragement of a support team. It’s easy to get started once you pay the monthly subscription fee and download the app.

You just answer the list of questions and Noom does the rest. A word of caution, though. One big mistake that you can make, especially in the beginning is spending your total calorie limit on a few high calorie foods at the start of your day.

You don’t want to do that. Choose foods that will allow you to eat an even number of calories throughout the day so that you never end up hungry and feeling deprived. Plus, you keep your metabolism steady.

Sirtfood Diet

Sirtfood Diet

There are hundreds of diets that you can try. However, most of them will tell you to avoid the stuff you enjoy - like red wine and chocolate. Not the Sirtfood diet. This one allows you to have those favorites and yet, you’ll still lose weight.

The Sirtfood Diet is based on eating foods that are known to contain sirtuins. These proteins are used to not only promote cellular health, but to also boost your metabolism and help your body burn fat.

The diet works by using the sirtuins to activate the skinny gene within your body. You will use the diet to lower the number of calories that you consume, but the foods that you eat on the diet, called sirtfoods, are what make energy for you.

And this is what makes losing the weight easier. The main point of the diet is to eat less and concentrate the foods you consume on a list of sirtfoods. When your meals are built using sirtfoods, it makes your body boost the production of sirtuins.

In addition to losing weight on the diet, you’ll also lower your risk of developing certain diseases. The diet does include a type of green juice that you’ll make using a recipe. It’s a strategy built using two phases, lasting for a total of three weeks, that you’ll need to follow.

The first one is a week long. During this time, you’ll lower the number of calories that you consume. In place of those calories, you’ll be drinking the green juice that you make.

The purpose of this phase is to kickstart your body so that it goes into a weight loss mode. At this time, you’ll lose weight rapidly because of the dietary changes you’ll make.

The caloric intake is limited to around 1,000 calories at the start but this does increase toward the end of phase one. Phase two lasts for fourteen days. The focus during this phase is not on a heavy calorie restriction, but rather on the sirtfoods that you’ll be eating based on the recipes you’ll be taught.

If, at the end of phase two, you decide that you want to lose more weight, you just begin again with the first phase. The recipes that you’ll need to know for the phases are from the Sirtfood Diet book.

The diet is good for anyone who wants to lose weight fast and then plans to maintain that loss. You’ll need to learn the sirtfoods, but that’s given in the diet book you’ll need to buy.

A mistake that you’ll want to watch out for is trying to substitute some of the ingredients in the recipes or the green juice. These foods are listed because they work to cause weight loss. You also don’t want to make the mistake of skipping the green juice to just eat the sirtfood meals.

Endomorph Diet

Endomorph Diet

Sometimes, no matter what diet you try, you struggle to lose weight. The problem might just be that you’ve been trying the wrong kind of diet for your body type. If you’re an endomorph, it means that you carry a lot of body fat and you don’t have a lot of strong, lean muscle.

People who are endomorphs naturally have a more difficult time getting rid of excess weight. However, that doesn’t mean that it’s impossible. What you have to learn to do if you want to get in shape is learn how to eat using an Endomorph Diet.

An endomorph diet is one that bases the way that you eat on the type of body that you have because of your skeletal frame. When you eat the endomorph way, you’ll choose your foods based on the shape of your body.

What this method of dieting does is uses your body shape to help propel you toward weight loss rather than you following a diet that doesn’t fit you. As an endomorph, your body is just prone to hanging onto the fat.

You’re might be pear shaped. This means that though you’ll have body fat, you’re doing to carry most of right at the abdomen. It also means that it’s a lot easier for you to put on extra pounds than people who aren’t endomorphs.

Thanks to the extra struggle with your body type, you’re less likely to find success with a one-size-fits-all type diet. You need one that’s customized for your body. Your diet needs to be one that restricts calories through portion control.

It will need to lower your caloric intake to around 1,500 calories if you’re aiming for a pound of weight loss per week. It also needs to be one that counts the calories you burn through exercise so that you don’t drop your calorie level too low.

As an endomorph, your metabolism just doesn’t work as fast as other body shapes. So you need a diet that can boost your metabolism as you lose. Because your body type has a tendency to hold on to what you eat, it’s important that any diet you follow under an endomorph diet includes regular exercise.

The best diet for your body type is going to be one that’s low carb and higher in protein. You don’t want to cut your carbs too low. That works against those with endomorph body types by slowing the metabolism even more.

You’ll need to focus on complex carbs rather than simple carbs. Good endomorph diets are ones such as a diabetic diet, or the Paleo diet. To get started on the endomorph diet, you would want to choose the low carb one that focuses on eating healthy foods rather than rapid weight loss. The reason for that is because you’ll want to adopt this as a way of eating long term to be healthier rather than just eating to lose weight for now.

Intermittent Fasting Diet

Intermittent Fasting Diet

If you’re thinking that it’s time to take some pounds off or experience multiple health benefits, you’re going to want to learn about a diet known as intermittent fasting. This type of food plan is a way to lose weight by using days (or hours) of eating mixed with days (or hours) of fasting.

There is no menu that you have to follow because the focus of the diet isn’t on which foods you consume. Instead, what it focuses on is when you should eat or fast. While on this diet, you will only eat at certain times.

You can choose to fast according to a specific number of hours or by choosing days of the week to forego food. There are no iron-clad rules for this diet, which is why it’s a great one for people who hate the strict format of a more traditional diet.

Plus, it’s an effective way to shed pounds for both men and women. You won’t fast for long periods of time, unless you want to, which is helpful to those who have low willpower.

You can pick between different styles of the method that have often been used. One of these methods is the 5:2 plan. The first number represents the number of days you eat normally, and the second number are the days you’ll fast.

So for two days of the week, you’d either fast completely, or consume only 500-600 calories - but the rest of the week, you’re not limited to that number of calories but you just eat sensibly.

Most people love this because they get to eat the foods they normally do without having to buy anything special. Another style of this form of dieting uses the 16:8 method. It means you have 8 hours to eat, but after the those hours are gone, you wait 16 hours before you eat again.

So if you have your dinner at 5 in the evening, you wouldn’t eat again until 16 hours have passed. There’s also a 24 hour fasting plan, where you just don’t eat anything for a full day.

You can do this once or twice during a 7 day period or simply rotate your days and eat every other day. To get started, you just decide which style of the intermittent fasting diet will work the best for you.

If you have a hard time going without food for a whole day, then you wouldn’t like the every other day style. But what’s great about this idea is that if you do struggle with calorie restriction, you can choose to use the 16:8 style, where you can eat for 8 hours during the day and let some of the rest of the time be during your sleeping hours.

There are some mistakes with intermittent fasting that you’ll want to avoid. Make sure that when it’s your time to eat, that you actually eat. Your body might feel better once you’ve fasted so it can be tempting to not eat the number of calories that your body needs the rest of the time.

Don’t make the mistake of adding a lot of other changes at the same time. For example, don’t add a harder workout. Your body needs time to adjust. When your fasting times or days are done, don’t make the mistake of overeating and binging, either.

Golo Diet

Golo Diet

When you want to lose weight, you want to choose a sound eating plan that will be beneficial to your health. That’s one of the reasons that the Golo Diet is so popular. It can work to restore your hormones to the correct balance as well as boost your metabolism.

Both of these can help you lose weight. But in addition to that, the diet also focuses on learning how to control your body’s insulin levels, which also helps with losing weight.

The diet teaches that by eating foods that don’t have a high glycemic index, you’ll lose weight.

And the reason that you’ll lose weight is because consuming foods like that won’t give you a swing in blood glucose. By keeping your glucose levels as even as possible, you lose weight faster.

The diet works by teaching insulin control using their one, two, or three month system. In addition to that, you’ll learn how to lower your calories for effective weight loss. You can cook at home or eat out when following the diet.

When you’re cooking at home, you’ll follow the guidelines that are given once you sign up for the diet. You will be restricting calories by using portion control on this diet, but the restriction is within a healthy range.

This diet program also encourages users to exercise regularly and when you exercise, you will learn how to add to your meal plan to account for the workouts. The final step with this plan is to take the Golo supplement.

Hunger pangs won’t be as much of an issue on this diet because you are allowed to eat more. The reason you’re allowed to eat more is because the foods you’ll choose are more nutritionally sound with fewer carbs and calories.

Once you sign up for the plan, you can have access to the program’s coaches, the meal plans, and the online support group. This diet is good for people who struggle to lose weight as well as for diabetics who need better glucose control.

To get started using the diet after you sign up, you’ll need to study what the fuel groups are. These are four food groups and they are vegetables, fats, carbs and proteins. You’ll learn how to divide your meal according to the portions in each of the fuel groups.

A mistake that you’ll want to avoid is not learning what the non-compliant foods are. Because some foods are seemingly healthy, it can be easy to think they’re okay. An example of this would be a food that contains artificial sweeteners.

You would think that if the food was low calories and low carb, it would on the compliant list. But users are instructed not to consume foods that contain artificial sweeteners.

Once you learn the system and put it into practice, you can lose weight and reach your target goal.

Don’t Be Skinny – Be Healthy

Losing weight to become skinny isn’t the best way to promote or maintain your health because you might inadvertently miss out on some vitamins and nutrients you need. When you concentrate on developing a healthy lifestyle, you’ll begin to feel better and weight loss is bound to follow.

Eating healthy involves sticking to a diet plan that’s going to make you look forward to meals and have a variety of tastes, colors and textures so you never get bored. For example, if you know your calorie downfall is sweets, be sure you have substitutes that fulfill that craving – or be able to sneak a sweet in once in a while without upending your plan.

Sometimes just the thought of losing weight seems an impossible task. And, if you’ve tried numerous diets in the past, you faced repeated disappoints when they don’t work – at least for the long-term.

The reason is that most diets are unrealistic for your lifestyle. Diet experts agree that the reason most diets don’t work is because the diet and goals are unrealistic. You may lose weight in the beginning of the diet, but most people aren’t able to live on a restrictive diet for very long periods of time....

Why Is Your Gut One Of The Biggest Causes Of Weight Gain?

Why is your gut one of the biggest reasons a person is unable to lose fat?

Well as you may have heard before…

Your gut is filled with an entire world of tiny microbes…

These microscopic helpers allow you to digest and absorb the food you eat…

They are absolutely critical to your health…

Every piece of food you eat, every salad, every piece of fruit and every cheeseburger… it all goes through these microbes first

They are an essential part of your digestive system…

They help break food down and help turn food into nutrients that your body can use…

Now there are “good” microbes that help you and improve your health…

And there are also “bad” microbes that can cause a lot of problems if they get out of control…

These “bad” microbes can specifically cause problems when it comes to weight gain…

And there are three secret reasons they can KEEP you fat…

Secret Reason #1 …

First, these “bad” microbes can increase the amount of calories that your body absorbs in when you eat food…

And they convert more of those calories into fat… or things your body stores as fat…

Secret Reason #2 …

Now the second way in that these “bad” microbes can keep you fat… Is that they can make you hungrier and increase your cravings… Especially cravings for unhealthy junk food like sugar, pizza, sodas, and other processed, refined carb foods…

These “bad” microbes make you hungry by sending a signal directly to your brain in the form of a chemical called propionic acid, which stimulates severe cravings…..

And can make you feel hungry almost ALL THE TIME!

And when you’re this hungry it can be nearly impossible to eat healthy or follow a diet…

Because even someone with the strongest willpower can quickly cave once these powerful cravings start…
