The Blood Sugar & Weight Connection

Weight loss has always been associated with calorie counting, restrictive diets, or rigorous workout programs. Just look at how many diet programs are out there making tall promises which only yield short-term, disappointing results. What most people don't realize is that there's an easier way to achieve sustainable weight loss, and that is by  balancing your blood sugar levels . Blood sugar simply refers to the amount of sugar or glucose in your blood, which comes from carbohydrates. During digestion, carbohydrates are broken down into sugar molecules and sent to your bloodstream, increasing your blood-sugar levels. The hormone insulin is then released to bring the sugar out of your blood – and into your cells to be converted into energy. Any excess sugar from your meal that isn’t being used for energy right away gets stored as fat. So how does all this work? Highly refined carbs like white bread, high fructose corn syrup, and other sweet carbs are quickly digested and absorbe...

Things To Help You Adapt To The Time Change And Have More Energy

  Yawn…stretch…ugh, I could use a nap. Sound like you? Kids cranky? Yep, same here. The other day our daughter said that she heard they are considering stopping the daylight savings time change. I laughed out loud…hard. I’ve heard that promise for 40 years! So, until they decide to change it, here are a few tips to get you through it until your body can adjust. I’m talking things to help you have more energy. Sleep. I’m willing to bet you didn’t go to bed early last night and now you feel exhausted. Going forward however, you really need to think about your schedule and cut out the extra stuff that is keeping you and your kids from getting enough sleep. You know that kids through teen years need 10+ hours and you need at least 8 per night, right? I don’t care that you can technically get up and show up for your day on 4-6 hours, your body needs at least 8. Don’t make me pull out all the science and health studies on it. If you don’t believe me, then you ma...

Why an Adequate Vitamin Intake is Critical for Good Health

Performing many roles to maintain good health and development, vitamins are essential nutrients that we can’t live without. Yet so many vitamins perform wonders that we’re not even aware of. That is… until we don’t get enough and a health problem surfaces. Vitamins are characterized by the following: They’re found naturally in food, in varying amounts. They can’t be made by the body (save for vitamin D after sun exposure). They are organic in their structure and can be broken down by air, heat or acid, making it more difficult for your body to absorb them since storage, cooking, and even exposure to air affects their chemical structure. They’re crucial for normal and healthy cellular development and function. Health-destroying deficiencies occur when your vitamin intake is too low. There are 13 essential vitamins which are divided into 2 categories: Water Soluble & Fat Soluble Water-soluble vitamins: Biotin (vitamin B7) Folic acid (folate, vitamin B9) Niacin (vitamin B3) Pantotheni...

7 Reasons to Detox

  A few years ago, if you suggested to someone that they detoxify their digestive system by fasting, juicing, or eating a raw foods diet, they probably thought you’d gone off the deep end. Today, detoxing is all the rage… and with good reason. • According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, more than 2 in 3 adults and about one-third of children and adolescents ages 6 to 19 are overweight or obese. • One in three American adults are pre-diabetic… and only 10% are aware that they’re at risk. • Fatigue is the number one complaint doctors hear from their patients. • Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease affect up to 50 million Americans. Because there is no curative therapy at this time, treatment for autoimmune diseases focuses on relieving symptoms. • More than 30% of the population suffers from insomnia and approximately 10 million people in the U.S. use prescription sleep aids. People who suffer from...

Kids Love Sweets? Here's How To Cut Down Sugar In Their Diets

  The American Heart Association recommends that sugar intake for children is limited to 3 teaspoons (12 grams) a day. A 12-ounce soda contains up to 10 teaspoons or 40g of added sugar, shakes and sweetened coffee drinks even more. Large amounts of added sugar can also be hidden in foods such as bread, canned soups and vegetables, frozen dinners, and fast food. In fact, about 75% of packaged food in the U.S. contains added sugar. Here are 4 ways to cut down sugar in your kid's diet: Don’t ban sweets entirely. Having a no sweets rule is an invitation for cravings and overindulging when given the chance. Give recipes a makeover. Many recipes taste just as good with less sugar. Try different mild spices to jazz up food. Avoid sugary drinks. Instead, try adding a splash of fruit juice to sparkling water or blending whole milk with a banana or berries for a delicious smoothie. Create your own popsicles and frozen treats. Freeze 100% fruit juice in an ice-cube tray with plastic spoon...
