Maintaining your ideal body weight is simple if you follow a few guidelines.
When you eat the right foods in the right combinations there is no need to count calories. It is always better to systematically under eat than to over eat and of course to maintain or get to your ideal body weight you have to burn off more calories than you take in. But many people do burn off more calories than they take in and systematically under eat and still gain or keep on there weight. There are few factors that few understand that can be keeping your weight on or that is making it difficult to take your unwanted weight off.
Weight gain or keeping on weight can be the result of imbalances in your body chemistry and of an overly acidic body. When your body is over acidic, the body creates fat cells to try to protect your organs, because acid will corrode your organs. That is why your body holds on to the fat cells. It will not let them go because it is saving your life. Balancing your pH is a big factor in order to get to or maintain your ideal body weight. This is why you do not have to count calories when you eat fresh vegetables. Vegetables are considered negative calories. Eat them whenever you want and as much as you want. They will neutralize the acids in your body getting rid of fat cells. Better than vegetables is fresh vegetables juices and wheat grass juice. Vegetables, especially raw, are the fountain of youth. No need to look any further.
Whole foods contain nutrients essential for normal metabolic function.
Whole foods eaten in the right combinations will keep your pH balanced and the weight will fall off you naturally. No need for weight loss books and products and all that garbage that we buy. Processed foods, microwaved foods, fried foods, and junk foods alter the nutrients in foods and can cause an over acidic body.
Remember that the earth is 70% water and the body is 70% water. Therefore, if we use our instincts, it is probably best to go with Mother Nature on this one. The majority of the foods we eat should be 70% water – fruits and vegetables. When eating concentrated foods – proteins and starches, eat 70% vegetables and 30% protein or starch at eat meal. The water in fruits and vegetables is essential for carrying nutrients into the body and eliminating toxins from the body.
I advocate food plans that promote overall health and well being and that will properly balance your body chemistry. Proper body chemistry requires the 12 wonders to include whole foods, exercise, sex, sunshine, water, fresh air, meditation, positive thoughts, laughter and touch. In the other article causes of male and female sexual dysfunction I talk about balancing your body chemistry and factors that contribute to it’s unbalance. Eating higher quality foods in the right combination will help to maintain a proper body chemistry which in turn will keep the endocrine system functioning properly. Have you heard of an overweight person that talks about their thyroid problem? Wake up America!! There is no specific problem that relates to the thyroid. The thyroid is part of the endocrine system which balances a large part of your body chemistry to include weight, sex drive, energy levels, reproduction, and growth. When there is a problem with weight there is a problem with your body chemistry. Some doctors might say it’s a specific problem being caused by the thyroid, but I have a different view. My view is that the thyroid works as part of our complex body chemistry and that you have to balance and heal the whole body in order to heal the thyroid. One of the most important balances is that of the pH measurement – or, how acidic or alkaline our blood and tissues are. Our pH is measured on a scale form 1 to 14. On that scale 7 is neutral, below 7 is acid, and above 7 is alkaline. The ideal pH is measured at 7.365. You can buy pH sticks at the pharmacy to measure the pH of your saliva and urine.
When our pH is off, our bodies make adjustments to balance it.
For example, we are led to believe that dairy provides calcium to our body. Yet, we cannot absorb or use the calcium in dairy effectively, so we actually do not get our needed calcium from dairy. In addition, dairy is very acid-forming and when we consume too much dairy our acidic body will make adjustments to neutralize itself. One of the ways the body neutralizes itself is by taking the calcium from the bones – since calcium is alkaline – to neutralize its acidic state. Over acidity is a culprit in the dramatic increase in osteoporosis (brittle bones) over the last two decades.
The best and easiest way to maintain a proper pH level is to combine foods correctly in each meal. There is a food combining chart and intermediate food plan under the free nutritional information link.
When you do not combine your foods well your body becomes over acidic. Over acidity wreaks havoc on the body and is responsible for most diseases. Our bodies can not tolerate extended acid imbalances. At the beginning, acid imbalances symptoms may include weight gain, headaches, skin eruptions (acne, eczema, and skin irritations), allergies, colds, flu, sinus problems, indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux and more. If your acid problem gets worse, more serious situations will arise. If the pH gets too acidic, it will corrode body tissue, decrease oxygen levels, and threaten cellular metabolism, which can kill you.
The body will do its best to not let this happen and will pull neutralizing minerals (sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium) from bones and other sources to neutralize the acid, as I described in the diary example. Many other deficiencies will occur in an overly acidic body and chronic symptoms show up when all other possibilities of neutralizing or eliminating acids have been exhausted. First stage chronic symptoms come about when the body throws off acid through the skin. These symptoms include acne, eczema, boils, fever sores, headaches, muscle soreness and swelling and cramps. If over acidity persists, later symptoms include immune system malfunctions, thyroid malfunctions, diabetes, cancer and more. Please note thyroid malfunctions.
More important than exactly what you eat is the quality of your foods and the way you combine them in every meal. It is always advisable to eat light and eat foods closest to their natural states. You cannot go wrong by eating fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouts, grains, and legumes in wise combinations. Please be advised that I am not advocating any one type of food lifestyle, but presenting my view and choice. I believe what’s making us sick are all the chemicals, hormones, preservative, food additives, pesticides, artificial flavors, colors and sweeteners we consume.
Another factor making it difficult to get to or maintain your ideal body weight is your addictions, especially your addiction to food. Other addictions that are contributing to your imbalances in your body chemistry include, smoking, excess alcohol consumption, negative thoughts, lack of exercise and drugs in all forms to include illegal, prescription and over the counter.
In It’s your right to be fit sexed and happy, you will inquire into your addictions that stop you from living a life filled with excess energy, vitality and lots of sex.
To get to or maintain your ideal body weight start with the practicing the 12 wonders, which will balance your body chemistry. Stop treating your body parts separately. They are one complex system which can be nurtured or damaged very easily. You get to choose how it is going to be.
