![]() The Death of the Raw Food Diet“Cooked Food is Not a Sin” Uncle Jethro Raw. The raw food diet, as a massive craze that took over the world for over ten years and convinced hundreds of thousands of people — possibly millions — to give up cooking and eat only fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds — is dead, my friends. It died a peaceful death this year. While it’s hard to say when the raw food diet craze officially expired, a good guess would be on April 2. Eastern time. At that time, the last remaining raw food guru who claimed to eat a 1. So he baked a sweet potato, cooked some vegetables, and dipped everything in store- bought hummus. He spent the rest of the evening in a cooked cooked- food bliss, without realizing that along with his 1. ![]() ![]() The History of the Raw Food Movement. The concept of eating raw food is not new. If we go back to the Ancient world, we’ll find that the Greeks and Romans were ahead of their time in that regard. They innovated in many areas of health, including bathing, sanitation and frugality in eating. Ancient Romans only had a glass of water in the morning, cold meat and fruit for lunch, and a main meal for dinner. Ancient Greeks practiced fasting for health, and apparently even Pythagoras was a vegetarian who fasted for 4. Throughout the ages, the word “vegetarian” was practically synonymous with “high raw diet.”In ancient times, there was no tofu, noodles or other vegetarian- labeled fares. When someone became a vegetarian, it meant that they essentially became a raw foodist eating mostly fruits and vegetables, with perhaps some bread and milk products. So for the most part, a vegetarian WAS a raw foodist. In ancient times, although some men and women were concerned with various methods of physical and mental purification, the idea of raw foodism would have been quite a luxury to most people, except perhaps to the elite of society, such as kings and queens, who could afford getting tropical fruits “imported” from faraway lands. However, royalty usually tended towards excess rather than extreme self- discipline. As a concept, however, the “raw food diet” started around 1. At some point, it was almost bigger and more influential than it is today. Even though it started mainly in Europe, the main instigators were American diet and health “reformists.” Here are a few of the figures that were the most important at the time: Sylvester Graham (1. Graham was one of the most influential early health advocates. He was one of the first public figures to advocate vegetarianism and what he called “temperance.” We may remember him as the inventor of the graham cracker, but his contribution was much greater. His followers practiced the brushing of teeth, vegetarianism, sobriety, and eating whole foods (such as whole wheat bread instead of white flour), all practices that we take for granted today, but were very controversial at the time. Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (1. You may remember this guy for inventing the “Kellogg’s Corn Flakes.” His initial recipe did not contain all the sugar that the current version has! With the current weight loss craze that has gripped many countries worldwide, demand for Ab machines, like many other exercise equipment is on the rise. Staff diet tidbits. Join the Fooducate community to eat better, lose weight, and improve your health. The Ab-Doer Pro -- and in fact, all models of the Ab-Doer -- consists of a sturdy chair with a flexible post. He was a devout Seventh Day Adventist who advocated a strict, sober, healthy life and fasting, which was called “water cure” at the time. Dr. Emmet Densmore (Main Work Published in 1. The concept of a “fruit- based diet” probably came from Dr. Emmet Densmore, an English doctor who published in 1. The Natural Food of Man.”Densmore was a sick man, and could not find relief to his lingering lumbago problems in a pure vegetarian diet. So he adopted a diet of fruits, nuts, milk, eggs, and cheese. His book mostly contains rather anecdotal evidence on the harm of grain products, and the benefits of a fruit- based, mainly raw diet. Herbert Shelton (1. Shelton became, in his youth, a passionate student of the writings of early health reformists, and proceeded to consolidate all their theories into a unified philosophy he called “Natural Hygiene.” In his thirties, he wrote his giant book “Human Life, Its Philosophy and Laws.”He then operated a health center in Texas where he practiced fasting and a clean, mostly raw food diet. All of the modern Natural Hygiene movement stems from Shelton, although it gained even more popularity when T. C. Fry came along and later, when the book “Fit For for Life” was released in the 1. All serious promoters of Natural Hygiene today are students of Shelton, who wrote more than 5. The Early Raw Food Movement. Between 1. 92. 0 and 1. A lot of books were published during that time, including many recipe books. The press of the time even considered raw foods to be “the latest fad.” However, like many other frivolous pursuits, the movement took a took a huge blow during WWII, when many leaders were sent to the front line and killed in the war. The 7. 0’s saw a renaissance of all health health- related information, including raw foods, through the work of Ann Wigmore, Dr. Shelton, T. C. Fry, Viktoras Kulvinskas, and many others. Ann Wigmore was particularly influential in spreading new ideas such as sprouting, wheatgrass juice and the concept of “living foods.”When the book Fit for Life was published and became a best- seller in the . Most leaders of the current raw food movement were influenced from that book, which in turn came almost entirely from the writings of T. C. Fry, which was the mysterious mentor that Harvey Diamond (one of the co- authors of Fit for Life) talked about in the book. What started in the late . With the spread of the Internet, the raw food diet reached every corner of the world. The Hype of the Late . More raw food restaurants opened and closed during that time than during any other time in history. At some point, when I was publishing my magazine “Just Eat An Apple,” I simply could not keep up with the number of raw food restaurants that were opening and closing across the USA and Canada every month! Now, only a few of those restaurants have survived.“Hype” and “immaturity” are what characterized those last 1. When I joined the movement in California in the late . If you had been a 1. If you could claim to have done it for a decade or longer, you were viewed with a godlike aura. All the gurus were claiming to eat a 1. If you were strong enough to eat a 1. You would hang out with other raw foodists almost exclusively, and try to “spread the word” in a way that dangerously resembled a cult. Ex- raw foodists that who went back to cooked foods or, God forbid — meat — were ostracized from the raw food club and gossiped about. More people tried a 1. Back to Reality: The Party is Over. I will make a claim here, and you can correct me if you think that I’m wrong. I claim that I’m the first raw foodist to have published a book about the “dangers” and “mistakes” of a raw food diet done incorrectly. In 2. 00. 2, I published my book “The Raw Secrets. When I first published it, “The Raw Secrets” became very popular within raw food circles because it was the only book available that told its readers that the raw food diet, when done incorrectly, could lead to health problems. I told my story of eating 1. I did after to find a more balanced and healthy diet and lifestyle. Later, my trademark within the raw food movement was to criticize and question the gurus, even though many people viewed me as one. Years later, I felt that my story hadn’t been fully told, so I wrote my books “Raw Food Controversies” and “Raw Freedom” as my the final nails in my raw food coffin. I was a lone voice in 2. All the Raw Food Gurus Eat Cooked Foods. I will go out on a limb and say that I think that most raw food gurus and advocates eat cooked foods. And I think that most of the remaining gurus who still claim to eat 1. That leaves very few raw food gods who haven’t touched a bite of cooked food since 1. For example, let me tell you a story: A couple of months ago I met with a friend I hadn’t seen for many years. His name is Jay, and he was part of the raw food scene in Montreal about 8 or 9 years ago, when I was quite active there in this underground movement. We talked at length about the raw food scene and how it’s changed. And at some point, we talked about the fact that pretty much ALL of the people who were seriously doing raw foods 1. Jay said, “I’m grateful for this raw food experience. Raw foods are still the backbone of my diet. But I also eat other things now.”This is the case with almost all of the raw food authors, gurus, and serious raw foodists that I knew 1. Back then, they were eating 1. Now, they all eat cooked foods. This includes almost ALL of the authors that who have written books on the topic. I’m willing to entertain the possibility that there could be some exceptions. Some people have maintained a raw food diet for all those years, and say they have never deviated from it. But upon closer look, most of these people were not as 1. But to their credit, they did stick with it for the most part. People Don’t Follow Raw Food Diets Long Term. Yet, some of these people, the 1. Yet, if I went to a raw food conference, organized by a 1. I’m almost certain that if we were to follow the attendees who eat a 1. Eventually. The average time a person will stay vegetarian is 9 years. For raw foodists, my experience leads me to think the percentage of “failures” is much higher, and the time people stay on the diet much shorter. About 9. 5% of the people I knew 1. Ex- Raw Foodists Speak Out. Since I published the Raw Secrets, I just can’t count the number of “ex- raw foodists” that who have come out to share their stories. Now, there are even entire websites dedicated to let ex- raw foodists “come out of the closet,” and leave the raw food “cult” once and for all. Here’s a small sample of former raw foodists you may know: Kevin Gianni — Co- founder of Renegade Health and a modern figure in the movement. Wrote a book on overcoming raw food “addiction,” but now allows herself to eat some cooked foods. Same for her children, who wrote raw food recipe books. Harley (Durianrider) & Freelea from 3. Ghost Shrimp Care, Food, Lifespan, Habitat & Videos A Ghost Shrimp. Ghost Shrimp, also known as Glass Shrimp, are relatively easy freshwater aquarium shrimp to keep. Ghost Shrimp are almost always available for sale at local pet stores as well as at the larger chain stores. At the pet shop, they are frequently kept in a small tank with other shrimp of their kind. The small tank often has a sponge filter or air stone pumping bubbles. On display, the Ghost Shrimp tank often does not look like something other than a tank of murky water with tons of bubbles. Ghost Shrimp are relatively inexpensive and are often purchased as “feeders” for larger more aggressive fish. Some Cichlids can eat them all day long. But Ghost Shrimp are more than a tasty snack. ![]() They are great aquarium cleaners and can be a lot of fun to watch. Many new hobbyists don’t give Ghost Shrimp a second look, but they really can be an interesting invertebrate to keep in their own right. ![]() Ghost Shrimp look good when kept in a tank with black aquarium gravel or substrate. It’s also good to keep them in a tank with a black background. When the shrimp is up against the black gravel or background it makes them easier to see.

Fiddler crabs are small, semi-terrestrial crabs of the genus Uca that are characterized by extreme cheliped asymmetry in males. They are most closely related to the.They are very active and busy invertebrates tirelessly scouring the tank for food to eat. Always on the go, these shrimp are in their element when kept in an established tank that is not “too clean”. As scavengers, they search the gravel or substrate for little bits of edible material that is otherwise uneaten. To that extent, Ghost Shrimp are decent aquarium cleaners, almost in the same league as Amano Shrimp and Nerite Snails. Ghost Shrimp are small so they may not eat as much as larger invertebrates, but they are constantly picking away at nearly everything they are near. Ghost Shrimp Tank Size. Ghost Shrimp can be kept in small tanks like 5 or 1. With small aquariums, be mindful of the limitations of the tank in terms of low water volume and limited surface area. So be sure to not accidentally overstock the tank. Ghost Shrimp are small creatures but they contribute to the bio- load of a tank just like other living organisms. Overstocking a small tank with lots of shrimp will cause water quality issues and can create an unhealthy environment. So follow the typical fish stocking rules for community tanks and things should work out fine. With small tanks like a 1. Ghost Shrimp. They may get aggressive and nasty toward each other if there are too many living together in a small space. Ghost Shrimp Habitat & Water Parameters. Ghost Shrimp seem to enjoy establish planted aquariums with a moderate current of continuously moving water. An appropriately sized HOB power filter should do the trick and keep the water circulating properly. Additionally, an air pump with a fine air stone will create a wall of tiny bubbles to help keep water moving as well. With the bubbles, it’s fun to watch the shrimp get drawn up into the current and have to move their hind legs ferociously to swim out of it. Ghost Shrimp are great swimmers. Ghost Shrimp Like Live Aquarium Plants Ghost Shrimp like tanks with plants. Keeping Ghost Shrimp in a tank with hardy live plants can also be a good idea. Aquariums with lots of live plants are never “too clean” as the plants constantly shed plant matter into the water column. Ghost Shrimp seem to enjoy picking through the messiness and feasting on the parts they can eat. Keeping aquarium plants is also a good idea because they provide little places to explore and hide especially near the bottom of the tank. Other hiding places can be created with decorations or rocks built into caves and caverns. Either way, it’s important that Ghost Shrimp have places to sneak away to from time to time. Water Parameters. As far as water parameters go, Ghost Shrimp seem to be comfortable in the tropical community tank range. Water temperature can be 7. Fahrenheit, with some suggesting that a slightly wider temperature range is also acceptable. Aquarium p. H should be fine anywhere between 7. Standard aquarium lighting will do. And as with all freshwater aquarium shrimp, be very careful when treating the tank with medicines. Keep Ammonia, Nitrites and Nitrates in check. And most importantly, avoid copper as copper can be fatal to aquarium shrimp. Ghost Shrimp Food, Size & Color Range Bottom Feeder Tablets. Ghost Shrimp food is broad as they will eat almost anything. They are great pickers and will eat like machines. Ghost Shrimp food can include some forms of algae, dead plant latter and detritus. These shrimp love fish or shrimp pellets, fish flakes, algae wafers or bits otherwise uneaten food. And its a good idea to find food supplements with Calcium, as Calcium is necessary for healthy shell growth. Ghost Shrimp food may also include their fallen tank mates, as they will even feed off dead fish or dead shrimp. Of course, it’s important to take dead inhabitants out of the water quickly otherwise there can be an ammonia spike in the tank. It’s fun to watch Ghost Shrimp swim up and pluck bits of food out of the water. And there is a pecking order with feeding as well. Bigger shrimp eat first. Ghost Shrimp Size, Shape & Appearance. Ghost Shrimp size varies by age, but generally they grow to be about 1 1/2 inches in length. In terms of width, Ghost Shrimp size is generally about the diameter of a pencil eraser when fully grown. Ghost Shrimp tend to be thinner and more streamline as compared to Amano Shrimp. Ghost Shrimp have a little hump midway down the length of their tail. And like other shrimp, they resemble small crayfish. But there are some differences. One big difference is the size of the creature and the pliability of their shell. Glass Shrimp have much softer shells than crayfish. A Ghost Shrimp has a pair of long antenna and a pair of short antenna. Their rostrum is on the top of their head right between their eyes. Behind the rostrum is a carapace area. Its in this carapace area where many of the inner workings of this shrimp can be seen, especially when feeding. The shrimp’s front legs are attached to the underside of the carapace. The legs are long, slender and clear. When the shrimp is feeding on the tank bottom or on hard surfaces, its primary method of movement is to walk with its legs. Behind the carapace, they have six abdominal segments that form a flexible covering. The area between the third and fourth abdominal segments comes together to form what appears to be a slight pointed area that juts up slightly higher than the other segments. Little clear swimmerets are tucked under the abdominal segments. These swimmerets can be seen fluttering back and forth as the shrimp moves up and down through the water column. And female shrimp keep their eggs safely tucked under the abdominal segments closest to the carapace. The sixth abdominal segment connects to the tail. The tail is also made up of flexible, moving segments. But these segments are thin and flat. In the middle of the tail is the telson. Under the telson are the four segments of soft shell that make up the uropod. The uropod can expand and contrast slightly to make the tail more broad or more narrow as need be. And on the edges of the uropod segments, the shrimp has very fine filament- like “fringe”. Similar looking “fringe” filaments also appear on the edges of the swimmerets. When the shrimp needs to move very quickly, in case of danger, it can be seen becoming very streamline and quickly flapping its uropod under its abdomen. This causes the shrimp to propel itself backwards at very high speeds. Often, one quick thrust backward is sufficient to get out of dangerous situations like conflicts over a piece of food. But it’s not uncommon for them to pump their uropod a couple times in a row to put some real distance between themselves and danger. When this happens, the shrimp can end up retreating to other side of the tank in an instant. Color Range Translucent with accent colors. Many people describe Ghost Shrimp color as a transparent shrimp, but I think they are more on the translucent side. Their bodies are generally clear with a hint of hazy grey, or sprinkled with green dots. Ghost Shrimp color ranges from translucent light grey to a translucent darker grey, but in either case one can see almost see through the shrimp, and certainly can see inside the shrimp. And that is one of the most fascinating aspects of a Ghost Shrimp: One can see the internal workings of its body when it feeds. It’s really amazing to watch close up. Ghost Shrimp may also have little green dots on their torso, and orange rings on their feelers and front legs. Ghost Shrimp Lifespan & Molting. Ghost Shrimp lifespan can be anywhere from a couple of days to 1 year. In some cases under good conditions and with a little luck, a Ghost Shrimp lifespan can be a little longer than a year. But usually not that much more that that. Lifespan is about one year. Ghost Shrimp are at risk of dying soon after they are added to a tank. It’s not uncommon for Ghost Shrimp to die within a day or two of being introduced to an established tank with healthy and stable water. Some will appear dead on the bottom of the tank and others will simply “disappear”. At the same time, other Ghost Shrimp from the same batch acclimate well and thrive in their new environment. Maybe its the stress of being brought home from the store, or maybe they experience stress due to very slight differences in water parameters, but whatever the reason be prepared to lose a few shrimp with each batch. Another consideration is that because these shrimp are considered “feeders” they may not be treated very well when transported to the store. Mary Baker Eddy - Wikipedia. Mary Baker Eddy. Born.

Her second husband, Daniel Patterson, was a dentist and apparently said that he would become George's legal guardian; but he appears not to have gone ahead with this, and Eddy lost contact with her son when the family that looked after him, the Cheneys, moved to Minnesota, and then her son several years later enlisted in the Union army during the Civil War. She did not see him again until he was in his thirties: My dominant thought in marrying again was to get back my child, but after our marriage his stepfather was not willing he should have a home with me. A plot was consummated for keeping us apart. The family to whose care he was committed very soon removed to what was then regarded as the Far West. After his removal a letter was read to my little son, informing him that his mother was dead and buried. ![]() Dr Mark Ferraro Diet FoodDr Mark Ferraro Diet CokeWithout my knowledge a guardian was appointed him, and I was then informed that my son was lost. Every means within my power was employed to find him, but without success. We never met again until he had reached the age of thirty- four, had a wife and two children, and by a strange providence had learned that his mother still lived, and came to see me in Massachusetts. From 1. 86. 2 to 1. Quimby and Eddy engaged in lengthy discussions about healing methods practiced by Quimby and others. The extent to which he influenced her is much debated. Originally, Eddy gave Quimby much credit for his hypnotic treatments of her nervous and physical conditions and initially thought his brand of mesmerism entirely benign. He wrote in 1. 86.

Quimby stands upon the plane of wisdom with his truth. Christ healed the sick, but not by jugglery or with drugs. As the former speaks as never man before spake, and heals as never man healed since. Christ, is he not identified with truth, and is not this the Christ which is in him? We know that in wisdom is life, `and the life was the light of man.' P.

But we also know that light shineth in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not. It is evident that Eddy and Quimby worked together, appreciated one another, and learned from one another. Quimby reportedly later said that he learned more from Eddy than she did from him. Eddy clearly respected him and, at one point, referred to him as an .

Eddy said that she experienced a healing on February 4, 1.

As I read, the healing Truth dawned upon my sense; and the result was that I arose, dressed myself, and ever after was in better health than I had before enjoyed. That short experience included a glimpse of the great fact that I have since tried to make plain to others, namely, Life in and of Spirit; this Life being the sole reality of existence. Her neighbors believed her sudden recovery to be a near- miracle. Cushing, a homeopath, testified under oath that he . Patterson's recovery, or that she was in critical condition. The tender word and Christian encouragement of an invalid, pitiful patience with his fears and the removal of them, are better than hecatombs of gushing theories, stereotyped borrowed speeches, and the doling of arguments, which are but so many parodies on legitimate Christian Science, aflame with divine Love.

Today’s starlets starve themselves to conform to Tinsel Town’s skeletal ideal — these are women, after all, who aspire not to be legends, but size zero or double zero. Today’s stars seek to remain child- sized (Victoria Beckham can famously slip into jeans designed to fit a seven- year- old, with a 2. In these pictures, Monroe glows with radiant health like a goddess, while modern pin- ups, with sharp hipbones and corrugated ribs, seem sapped of all vitality. But, then, Marilyn was also a product of the post- war era in which she grew up. Mercifully few Westerners go hungry through poverty now, yet more of us starve ourselves to conform to some perverse bodily ideal. Norma Jeane Baker, as she was then, grew up so impoverished that there was rarely enough food on the table, and her robust approach to eating reflected a desire never to be hungry again. 80/20 Paleo Lifestyle. Marilyn Monroe was born on. My biggest single concern used to be getting enough to eat,’ she remarks in the book. The words appear next to a photograph that shows her propped up in bed, fixing breakfast while naked between the sheets, presumably adorned in nothing more than a spritz of Chanel No 5. Today’s warped female role models associate hunger with power rather than poverty. Kate Moss notoriously announced that her motto is . And even purportedly healthy celebrities such as Beyonc. Figures from a recent study suggest that 6. A lamentable proportion of 2. One of Marilyn's favourite treats was a hot fudge sundae. The hot fudge sauce and raw carrot regime. Endearingly, Marilyn’s chief word of approval for the fare with which she starts her day is . When it’s hot, I break two raw eggs into the milk, whip them up with a fork, and drink them while I’m dressing. I supplement this with a multi- vitamin pill, and I doubt if any doctor could prescribe a more nourishing breakfast for a working girl in a hurry.’The idiosyncratic approach continues: . Every night I stop at the market and pick up a steak, lamb chops or some liver, which I broil in the oven. I usually eat four or five raw carrots with my meat, and that is all. I must be part rabbit; I never get bored with raw carrots.’ Lest we imagine Marilyn’s life is only about protein and vegetables, she makes the girlish admission: . Where so many of today’s A- listers now consume joyless, low- calorie frozen yoghurt, so Marilyn oozes hot fudge sensuality. She didn’t miss meals, and was sure to eat a balanced amount of protein which helps exercise natural portion control. Then, after a sensible day, she treated herself. Today’s celluloid wannabes spend hours aggressively pounding the treadmill and pumping iron. Fiftysomething Madonna’s coach Nicole Winhoffer has her strenuously working out twice a day, six times a week. In contrast, Monroe grimaces: . I have evolved my own exercises for the muscles I wish to keep firm, and I know they are right for me because I can feel them putting the proper muscles into play as I exercise.’ She stopped not at some masochistic height of achievement, but simply when she felt tired. Doing a weights circuit is the perfect exercise as it increases your resting metabolic rate — helping you burn calories, and increases lean muscle mass — making you look toned. Doing hours of cardio like Madonna would have eaten away Marilyn’s famous curves. The . In a recent survey, 9. We are, it appears, in the grip of a self- despising epidemic.

Elizabeth Hurley — a woman who has boasted about living off six cups of watercress soup a day, bolstered by snacks of six raisins — commented: . I’ve seen her clothes and I wanted to take a tape measure and measure what her hips were. She was very big.’I, too, have seen Monroe’s clothes and, let me assure you, the woman was petite. The now fading costumes from her films were unexpectedly minuscule (mostly UK size eight). It is only when one consults the images in which they are worn that things look different: some alchemy of femininity rendering her body all trembling, blancmange flesh. Norma Jeane Baker, future film star Marilyn Monroe. The curve- creating tricks of the trade. And herein lay the secret to Marilyn’s look: the actress was crammed into these creations. Hems were weighted to achieve the requisite cling, biases cut so tight that she could not sport underwear, a reputation that only added to her allure. To be sure, her weight fluctuated. Monroe’s dressmaker recorded that it varied between 1. The upshot: an undulating 3. Fifities average of a 3. It is only in the context of contemporary Hollywood self- starvation that these proportions appear so excessive to the likes of Ms Hurley. Rather than being terrified of adult womanliness, Monroe revelled in it. Today’s starlets — not to mention the rest of us — could benefit from Monroe’s relaxed and rational approach to her body. While the population at large grows ever fatter (the average British dress size has shot from a 1. Monroe’s day), so its icons shrink ever smaller. When I look at Monroe prancing barefoot, all buxom bosom and creamy thigh, I think of how lovely Victoria Beckham and the frequently skeletal Angelina Jolie would look without their jutting clavicles and stick- like limbs.

It is a small, green fruit, shaped like a pumpkin. ![]() The skin of the fruit contains hydroxycitric acid (HCA). This is the active ingredient in garcinia cambogia extract, which is marketed as a diet pill. How it works: Animal studies show that it can inhibit a fat- producing enzyme in the body and increase levels of serotonin, potentially helping to reduce cravings (1, 2). Effectiveness: One study with 1. There was no difference in weight or body fat percentage between groups (3). A 2. 01. 1 review that looked at 1. Side effects: There are no reports of serious side effects, but some reports of mild digestive problems. Bottom Line: Even though garcinia cambogia may cause modest weight loss, the effects are so small that they probably won’t even be noticeable. Hydroxycut. Hydroxycut has been around for more than a decade, and is currently one of the most popular weight loss supplements in the world. There are several different types, but the most common one is simply called “Hydroxycut.”How it works: It contains several ingredients that are claimed to help with weight loss, including caffeine and a few plant extracts. Effectiveness: One study showed that it caused 2. Side effects: If you are caffeine sensitive, you may experience anxiety, jitteriness, tremors, nausea, diarrhea and irritability. Bottom Line: Unfortunately, there is only one study on this supplement and no data on long- term effectiveness. More research is needed. Caffeine. Caffeine is the most commonly consumed psychoactive substance in the world (6). It is found naturally in coffee, green tea and dark chocolate, and added to many processed foods and beverages. Caffeine is a well known metabolism booster, and is often added to commercial weight loss supplements. How it works: Short- term studies have shown that caffeine can boost metabolism by 3- 1. Effectiveness: There are also some studies showing that caffeine can cause modest weight loss in humans (1. Side effects: In some people, high amounts of caffeine can cause anxiety, insomnia, jitteriness, irritability, nausea, diarrhea and other symptoms. Caffeine is also addictive and can reduce the quality of your sleep. There really is no need to take a supplement or a pill with caffeine in it. The best sources are quality coffee and green tea, which also have antioxidants and other health benefits. Bottom Line: Caffeine can boost metabolism and enhance fat burning in the short term. However, a tolerance to the effects may develop quickly. Orlistat (Alli)Orlistat is a pharmaceutical drug, sold over- the- counter under the name Alli, and under prescription as Xenical. How it works: This weight loss pill works by inhibiting the breakdown of fat in the gut, making you take in fewer calories from fat. Effectiveness: According to a big review of 1. Other benefits: Orlistat has been shown to reduce blood pressure slightly, and reduced the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 3. Side effects: This drug has many digestive side effects, including loose, oily stools, flatulence, frequent bowel movements that are hard to control, and others. It may also contribute to deficiency in fat- soluble vitamins, such as vitamins A, D, E and K. It is usually recommended to follow a low- fat diet while taking orlistat, in order to minimize side effects. Interestingly, a low carb diet (without drugs) has been shown to be as effective as both orlistat and a low- fat diet combined (1. Bottom Line: Orlistat, also known as Alli or Xenical, can reduce the amount of fat you absorb from the diet and help you lose weight. It has many side effects, some of which are highly unpleasant. Raspberry Ketones. Raspberry ketone is a substance found in raspberries, which is responsible for their distinct smell. A synthetic version of raspberry ketones is sold as a weight loss supplement. How it works: In isolated fat cells from rats, raspberry ketones increase breakdown of fat and increase levels of a hormone called adiponectin, believed to be related to weight loss (1.

Bottom Line: Green coffee bean extract may cause modest weight loss, but keep in mind that many of the studies were industry sponsored. Glucomannan. Glucomannan is a type of fiber found in the roots of the elephant yam, also called konjac. How it works: Glucomannan absorbs water and becomes gel- like. It “sits” in your gut and promotes a feeling of fullness, helping you eat fewer calories (2. Effectiveness: Three human studies showed that glucomannan, combined with a healthy diet, can help people lose 8- 1. Other benefits: Glucomannan is a fiber that can feed the friendly bacteria in the intestine. It can also lower blood sugar, blood cholesterol and triglycerides, and is very effective against constipation (2. Side effects: It can cause bloating, flatulence and soft stools, and can interfere with some oral medications if taken at the same time. It is important to take glucomannan about a half an hour before meals, with a glass of water. You can find an objective review of glucomannan in this article. Bottom Line: Studies consistently show that the fiber glucomannan, when combined with a healthy diet, can help people lose weight. It also leads to improvements in various health markers. Meratrim. Meratrim is a relative newcomer on the diet pill market. It is a combination of two plant extracts that may change the metabolism of fat cells. How it works: It is claimed to make it harder for fat cells to multiply, decrease the amount of fat that they pick up from the bloodstream, and help them burn stored fat.

How it works: Green tea extract is believed to increase the activity of norepinephrine, a hormone that helps you burn fat (3. Effectiveness: Many human studies have shown that green tea extract can increase fat burning and cause fat loss, especially in the belly area (3. Side effects: Green tea extract is generally well tolerated. It does contain some caffeine, and may cause symptoms in people who are caffeine sensitive.

The Best Berries for Weight Loss and More Health Benefits of Berries. Farmer’s markets and fruit stands are bursting with berries—or they will be soon. Numerous studies link these summer treasures with a slew of health benefits, including weight loss. Here are five ways berries can help you slim down and a few healthy ways to gobble them up: Antioxidants. Berries are potent sources of antioxidants that essentially act like little bodyguards protecting cells from damage, which can lead to premature aging and disease. But antioxidants are also linked to weight control. Some exciting new research from the University of Florida found that people who consume more antioxidants weigh less, even when they don’t eat fewer calories. The researchers developed an index that ranks the number of calories consumed from plant- based foods compared with overall daily calorie intake called the phytochemical index, or PI score. A totally plant- based, vegan diet (excluding hard liquor and refined sugars) could have a perfect score of 1. American diet, heavy with meat, sugar, and fried foods and low in fruits and veggies, would score below 2. In a study published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, the Florida scientists found that people of normal weight had PI scores 1. ![]() ![]() And even though both groups consumed about the same number of daily calories, those with lower PI scores weighed more, had larger waistlines, and higher body fat percentages. Blood sugar regulation. Strawberries in particular have been shown to reduce blood sugar and insulin levels after meals. Scientists believe that a key antioxidant in strawberries blocks the activity of an enzyme responsible for breaking starch into simple sugar, which means fewer simple sugars are released into the blood stream, lowering the blood sugar and the corresponding insulin response. This is key for weight control because insulin shuttles excess sugar into fat cells. Check out my strawberry avocado taco snack recipe for a new way to enjoy the healthy fruit. Metabolism boosters. Raspberries have been shown to contain a natural substance called ketones, which are similar to capsaicin, the compound that gives hot peppers their fire. Animal studies have found that raspberry ketones prevented an increase in overall body fat and visceral fat, the deep internal belly fat considered to be most dangerous due to its relationship to an increased risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers. I love raspberries as is but they’re also great in parfaits, hot or cold cereal, or as a topping for whole grain French toast. 12 Miracle Remedies For Weight Loss.Not able to shed those extra kilos easily?

Another study in Brazilian dieters found that over a six month period, each additional gram of fiber resulted in an extra quarter pound of weight loss. ![]() Raspberries in particular have the best ratio of carbohydrate to fiber.

That’s over 3. 0 percent of the recommended intake, and one of the reasons I included them in my 5 Day, 5 Food Fast Forward, a solid food ! Yourself Slim. In the fast forward plan I combine raspberries with four other superfoods to create meals like a spinach raspberry salad and raspberry almond smoothie. The goal is to get quick results, up to eight pounds in five days, while eating satisfying, cleansing meals that reboot your metabolism and crush cravings. In addition to weight loss, berries have been shown to boost bone density, maintain healthy vision, protect against the sun’s UV rays, slash the risk of cancer and Parkinson’s disease, fight infections, and keep your brain young. Pretty powerful stuff! If you have a bounty of berries and don’t think you’ll eat them all before going bad here’s an easy 3- step way to freeze the nutritional powerhouses so they won’t clump together in one big block: Wash the berries and place them in a single layer on a cookie sheet so they aren’t touching. Freeze for 3. 0 minutes; remove then transfer to freezer bags. Remove as much of the air as possible (some people suck it out with a straw), seal, label, and toss in the freezer. This way you can use as few or as many as you’d like in a smoothie or thaw and enjoy well beyond summer. ![]() Are you a fan of berries? What’s your favorite healthy way to enjoy them?
