Now melissotherapy applied in different fields of medicine – cardiology, neurology, pediatrics and other bee products are widely used in situations where the body needs additional support, such as athletic training and space mission.

Apitherapy (from the Latin apis – bee) – a system for treating bee products. Principles of honey, bee venom and pollen are known to mankind for a long time. They exist in Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, and in our country honey have long been considered an assistant in a variety of illnesses, from colds to tuberculosis, and gastritis. Until the revolution, he prescribes as an official medicine physicians zemstvo hospitals.

In the footsteps of Vinnie the Pooh

Bee Honey – this is an extremely useful product. It contains many vitamins – A, E, C, and such rare as H, PP and vitamin C. But the main advantage of honey is that it almost does not contain sucrose, instead of which is composed of glucose and fructose.Therefore, it is much less caloric than sugar – and much more useful it.

The benefits of honey can talk for hours. He and strengthens immunity, and tones the digestion and is good for the heart. Its antibacterial properties are so strong that they can even handle open wounds and insect bites. However, use honey instead of iodine will be few, but treating a cold with it – almost everything.

Which honey is the best?

In winter, honey becomes particularly relevant. However, at this time of year to find a natural product of the most difficult. What is artificial honey and how it worse? Artificial called that honey, which was created by bees, but not from the pollen and nectar and sugar syrup. This method of production is easier and cheaper, but the honey loses its main miraculous properties.

The key to the quality of honey is a certificate that may be required at a fair honey or in a specialized store. It is best if there is a name of the beekeeper, the area where the honey has been received and the results of chemical analysis. On packaged honey in stores, at least should be room includes – 19792.

In addition, natural honey can remain liquid just a couple of months (except buckwheat, acacia and padevogo), and then crystallized. That’s okay, honey, this does not spoil. However, common sense dictates that if you offer in the winter, liquid honey – it’s likely, he is not real.

Choosing honey, better focus on their health. After curative effect in various species of honey a very special:

Your lips would be so honey drink

The best way to use honey, we have been familiar since childhood: to stick a spoon in his cheek and enjoy. The main thing – to stop. The daily rate for adults – 2 tablespoons. For children – only one. It is best to have honey with dairy products because it helps to assimilate calcium.

Includes honey in your daily diet, it is important to remember one rule. It can not be heated, because while a honey stand carcinogens – and it becomes dangerous. So if you suddenly decided to hit the influenza hot tea with lemon and honey (a great combination), the honey in no case be put directly into the tea. It has to be there alone, drinking tea.

Propolis guard your health

Propolis – a resinous substance that bees are so-called senior made of bark and buds of trees … to disinfect the hive. Yes, the bees are so conscious beings that use special materials to reduce the number of bacteria in their populous housing.

Approximately the same effect propolis in the human body. He struggles with quinsy, inflammation of the gums and herpes. Propolis acts in such cases as a natural antibiotic. In addition, he is able to reduce the pressure and strengthens the cardiovascular system as a whole.

Unlike chemical drugs, propolis functioned reasonably smoothly. It can be used in the case of specific diseases, and prevention. For example, a month early in the winter – and a month in the spring, at the very cold in time. Applied Propolis usually in the form of drops of the solution, mixed with tea or milk products.

Royal jelly – the food of queens

Royal jelly – a special substance that ordinary bees produce in their salivary glands for the most important inhabitant uleya – bees. She never leaves her home and devoted exclusively to playback delay during the life of a huge number of larvae. And she eats with a royal jelly. Imagine how it must be nutritious?

Royal jelly contains large amounts of glucose, fructose, lipids, minerals, vitamins and other valuable substances. It is very well affect the endocrine and nervous system of man. It regulates the secretion of adrenalin and acts as a sedative for insomnia and increased anxiety.

In addition, royal jelly have a positive impact on the sexual system of both men and women. Not for nothing, it serves as food exclusively fertile queen bees! Milk is used to treat infertility and as a component of anti-aging cosmetics. In fresh extracted from the hive, milk spoiled already after 1,5 hours. Therefore it either cooled or dried. In any case, it is quite expensive but effective drug, before the use of which is better to consult a doctor.

Bee bread

So the people called ambrosia – pollen, which the industrious bee has collected and rolled into lumps, then to "preserve" in the comb. Perga used them to feed the larvae. This is another mine of useful elements from the beehives, which have long learned to take advantage of people.

Perga contains more protein than meat, fish or eggs. In addition, it contains selenium – a substance retards the aging of cells. Of course, we are not bees to switch completely to this kind of food. Moreover, Pergamum advised to use caution, this is one of the most allergenic bee products. For us it is primarily a drug, relieves fatigue and exhaustion, improves circulation and stimulates digestion.

Perge advised to take courses – every day for one week and then take a break of three months. This method allows you to maintain vitality in the most difficult periods of the organism – in the early winter or early spring. To enhance the effect ambrosia can be mixed with another magic bullet – royal jelly.

Here’s what treasures fraught with beehives. Regular honey, propolis, royal jelly and pollen can be not only supporting food additives, but also part of a package of drugs aimed at getting rid of a disease. The main thing – to learn how to choose quality products and use them correctly. And remember that, honey and other bee products – this is a very active biological substances and may cause allergies. So treat them to particular caution.

A few years ago it was thought that peptic ulcer – "fun", as a rule, for young unmarried, actively pursue their careers and mostly male smokers.

Today is "working girls" are men active competition in all of these qualities. And to reward those who seek equality with men in all – the same stomach ulcer or duodenal ulcer.

Where did this attack?

The causes of peptic ulcer disease, as scientists believe, a few. Blame for her development, firstly, our care attitude to health in general and to food in particular. Especially in the young student, "bachelor" years, when about three meals and a daily soup were just childhood memories, and to the measured stable "family" life is still far.

In addition, as many diseases of the twentieth century, the plague is often – the result of stress. Inspired in the brain of momentum from the source of irritation in complex ways transformed the team, boosting the production of gastric juice, which, as we know, consists mainly of corrosive hydrochloric acid. And she immediately begins to erode the stomach wall, which its owner (because the same stress) forgot to fill. That’s why gastroenterologists – the only of the medical fraternity that did not discourage us to "seize stress.

It is felt that a fatal role in the formation of gastric ulcers are microorganisms. In principle, a variety of microbes normally found in the digestive tract of man. But when the stomach’s protective mechanisms are weakened, these microbes are activated.

What?

Like many diseases, ulcer patient enters the body in the "vicious circle". By reducing the motor function of the stomach, it retains in its food longer, causing more production of hydrochloric acid, which corrodes the same plague … This "vicious circle" we have decided to break the operation. But abroad ulcer hardly operate: treated conservatively. And the primary role of this treatment is diet therapy.

The problem of therapeutic nutrition in ulcer disease – the most help to restore the normal structure of the inner mucosal surface of the stomach, which is why your meal now must be as gentle. After a plague on the merits – an open wound, responding to stretch, touch, temperature and chemical effects.

Therefore, firstly, the food must be fractional. As you recall, this means that portions of food each meal should be small so as not to stretch the stomach wall. Lady’s finger is better to prefer a six-fold power, that is to eat about every three hours. Stomach This will almost always filled with food, antacid.

Secondly, it is necessary to observe the mechanical fragmentation. Doctors say that the ulcer first have to learn to chew. For large pieces of food nerazmyagchennye saliva, brushing the plague, can not only cause severe pain, but also increase the wound. But even careful rumination may not be sufficient, unless the food is rough. This is a healthy man slices of potato fries, a piece of meat or bread seem to be soft. Lady’s finger is better to forget about them, eating food only in powdered form and shabby. And absolutely Forget about products that contain crude cell walls: turnip, radish, radish, asparagus, peas and beans, immature and rough-skinned fruits, vegetables, gooseberries, currants, grapes, figs, apples with skin.

Thirdly, the most powerful stimulus ulcer is the chemical composition of food. Compare it from sifting salt fresh wounds. It is therefore necessary not only to limit the use of the most salt (8-10 g / day), but also completely eliminate sharp seasonings, vinegar and any other acids, as well as radish, radish, onion and garlic and mushrooms.

In addition, the chemical composition of food influences the secretion of gastric secretion – acid. All products are divided into weak and strong points of pathogens.

The former include: milk and dairy products, cereals vegetable soups, porridge, liquid, well-boiled meat, fresh boiled fish, boiled eggs, or as an omelette, white bread, alkaline non-carbonated water, weak tea. They have something for you and need.

Strengths pathogens gastric secretion include: mustard, cinnamon, horseradish, pepper and other spices, roasted, canned and smoked dishes, beef-tea – meat, mushroom, fish, black bread, biscuit dough products, strong tea, coffee, drinks containing alcohol and carbon dioxide. As you can see, we are talking not so much about the products, but about specific dishes.For the same product made in different ways, in different ways and perceived stomach. For example, a piece of meat can bring you a lot of suffering, and boiled "slip through" without arousing too much acidity.

Has meaning and consistency of food. For example, a piece of meat again irritate your stomach longer being in it. A chopped into minced evacuated from it much faster. Important and the thermal regime of power. Too hot and too cold foods will irritate the wound (ulcer). Therefore, the temperature of hot meals should not exceed 60 degrees, and cold – less than 15.

Fats have a biphasic effect. First, they neutralize a large amount of acid, and then their decomposition products contribute to its stimulation. But fats also have the mechanical action. They envelop the stomach, forming a second shell, and thereby protect the mucosa from contact with acid. These advantages are fully possesses butter. Less preferred vegetable oils, of which the best – the most digestible – olive. It is excluded for you all kinds of margarine! And all fats – both animal and vegetable origin – should be added only in cooked dishes, without being subjected to heat treatment, at which they decompose.

Effect of carbohydrates on the development of peptic ulcer is also ambiguous. On the one hand, carbohydrates – the main source of minerals, fiber and energy. Typically, they are weak activators of gastric secretion, and therefore are useful in ulcers. Puree, slimy soups from potatoes, carrots, pumpkins, squash, cauliflower, tomatoes, juice from apples (without skin), ripe grapes are not irritate the stomach.

But, on the other hand, carbohydrates are powerful stimuli of the autonomic nervous system, which manages such inexplicable phenomena, such as flushing, sweating, palpitations and …secretion of gastric juice. In addition, carbohydrates are often contribute to bloating of the stomach, his bulging of gases (especially the "sins" that white cabbage, lady’s finger, therefore it is not recommended). Therefore, for all values of the number of carbohydrates in your diet is reduced.

But let’s not forget the psychological aspect, has an enormous impact on the work of the entire digestive tract. If stress affects our digestion is detrimental, positive emotions – just a balm for the stomach. Snacking on the run, eat cold food, for discussion of problems or reading the newspaper completely "satisfied" him. And here is a beautiful serving, pleasant company, the leisurely absorption of food, and even wonderful music – the whole ritual "with feeling, with properly, with deliberation" is not a gift has existed for centuries, helping our ancestors to cope with tens of change of fatty, spicy foods, without prejudice health. But, for God’s sake, we should not deduce from this that you can indulge without the effects of gluttony by Tchaikovsky.But try very "lean" serve dinner grandmother’s china, crystal and silver, and, believe me, fresh mashed vegetables will become an unforgettable taste and aroma.

In recent decades, it became clear that an excess of sugar in the diet of people is harmful to health and provoke a number of diseases (caries, diabetes, atherosclerosis, obesity, etc.) and reduces the life.

In this regard, and there sweeteners (sugar substitutes), which differ miserable gr. Economic benefits of such sweeteners, sugar substitutes and the price is low, also played a role. Used as natural and synthetic sweeteners. Unfortunately, many of them are harmful to health, and, strangely enough, the harm even have some natural (fructose, sorbitol, xylitol, etc.)

First, about the dangers of "chemical" (artificial) sweeteners.

Aspartame

Sweetener Aspartame (E951) – digestible low-calorie sweetener, is almost 200 times sweeter than sugar. He is the most common chemical sweetener, but, under certain conditions, and one of the most harmful. In the market it can be found under the brands "Aspamiks», NutraSweet, Miwon (South Korea), Enzimologa (Mexico), Ajinomoto (Japan), etc. Aspartame is about 25% of the world of artificial sweeteners and used in the production of more than 5000 food items and beverages.

Conducted independent studies show adverse effects of prolonged use of aspartame in the human body. The vast majority of independent experts confirm that the prolonged use of aspartame may cause headaches, ringing in the ears, allergies, depression, insomnia, and in animals and brain cancer. Aspartame may carcinogen.

The use of aspartame in persons suffering from overweight, as it were, in order to lose weight because of low calorie aspartame may cause the opposite effect and even bolshemu weight gain later. Studies conducted by Dr. Russell Blaylock, showed that aspartame increases the appetite. The adverse effect of aspartame may occur in 35% of the population.

Asulfame K

Sweetener Asulfame K (E950) – inassimilable low-calorie sweetener. 200 times sweeter than sugar. Asulfame also harms the health, leads to violations of the intestine and allergic diseases.Prohibited for use in Canada and Japan. One has the name does not inspire confidence.

Saccharin

Saccharin sweetener – calories sweetener is sweeter than sugar in 450 times. Has a "metallic taste". He was banned for use in some countries, including Canada and the Soviet Union back in the 70-ies of XX-th century. In experimental animals cause cancer of the bladder. In the United States and the European Union on the labels of food products, where there are saccharin, requires notice of its harm to health.

Cyclamate

Sweetener Cyclamate (E952) – beskaloriyny sweetener is sweeter than sugar 30 times. Application of cyclamate permitted only in about 50 countries. He was banned in 1969 in the United States, France, UK and several countries because of suspicions that provokes renal failure.

Unfortunately, and herbal sweeteners may not be harmless, or not convenient to use.

Fructose

Sweetener Fructose (fruit sugar), is the sweet from the natural sugars, fructose into 1,7 sweeter than sugar. Also calories as sugar, fructose, and therefore not a dietary product. Moreover, some experts linked the obesity epidemic in the United States with the use of fructose.

U.S.: excess weight in response to sweeteners.

Obesity epidemic gripping the population of the United States of America, involves the use in the food industry based on sugar substitutes fructose. This statement was made by scientists from the University of Louisiana.

It reported, a significant proportion of new cases of overweight and obesity due to consumption of foods with high fructose (the share of which, incidentally, is now in the United States about 40% of all food items). Through these sweetener person receives during the day at least 130 extra calories (and lovers of sweet fizzy drinks – up to 310 calories), which are converted into extra pounds.

According to the Clinic of Endocrinology of MMA. IM Sechenov, the use of fructose, in some cases, can lead to toxic liver damage.

Sorbose (sorbitol or sorbitol)

Sweetener sorbose (sorbitol or sorbitol). Saccharide, which is found in plants. Sweetness to sugar ratio of 0.6, ie, sorbitol is not very convenient and not so pleasant to the taste. Can cause diarrhea and is not recommended to consume it more than 10 grams per day. There is evidence that sorbitol impairs digestion.

Xylitol (sorbitol or sorbitol)

Sweetener Xylitol (E967) – found in small amounts in fruits and plants. Xylitol is a white crystals, odorless. Obtained xylitol from cotton husks and corn cobs. According to some sources may cause bladder cancer.

Note that in the wholesale and retail, there are many sweeteners: sukrazit, wort, surel and others, but they are made on the basis of the described chemical sugar substitutes. As they say: Be vigilant. If the label of any product there is an entry E9 … (starts with nines), then this means a sweetener in food. Also note the following. If the use of potentially dangerous sweeteners only occasionally and in small doses, is very difficult to hurt yourself. Yet, today, these sweeteners are used everywhere – in the tens of thousands of food and beverages. In the U.S., 60% of cases, where there was previously used for sugar today are used, synthetic sweeteners, mainly aspartame. We seem to move to the same. Life-long use of "chemistry" in decent quantities, of course, can be harmful to health.

So, gradually foods containing sugar will lose its popularity. Not excluded even measures of state regulation of the use of sugar in food. The problem can be solved sweeteners, but among them most: a health hazard, or are inconvenient to use.

Today, many countries are conducting studies to find natural, low-calorie sweeteners of plant origin, which are not harmful to human health and meet all modern requirements. However Steviol glycoside – an extract of herb Stevia – and to this day remains the best sweeteners! It is important that there are no reports of harm (toxicity and mutagenicity) of all components in Stevia, as well as contraindications to use.

It is no accident in Japan, where the average life expectancy of 90 years, and where the law has application in the production of synthetic substitutes for sugar – Steviol glycoside captured 50% of sweet market. Japan consumes 90% of the world’s stevia.

Once again about how "softdrinki" harmful to health.

At the American Exhibition, held in Sokolniki Park in 1959, ordinary Soviet people for the first time were able to try the "Pepsi-Cola, moreover, on a freebie, and in any amount because the firm that fed all the free and unlimited. Brown seemed to drink then the symbol of freedom. Gradually, he firmly entrenched in everyday life, strongly squeezing the usual kvass, and SIDS, and in general virtually disappeared from sale. Since then flowed back a lot of different carbonated water and whole generation grew up, choosing Pepsi.

In the U.S., "Pepsi-Cola, Coca-Cola and their relatives carbonated drink almost from infancy, is already the second century. The wide dissemination of these drinks contribute to aggressive marketing and advertising policies pursued aggressively and imaginatively. But medical experts have concluded that the "Pepsi-Cola, Coca-Cola and others are not harmless to health, especially among children. For the second year in the United States conducted a campaign against the so-called "softdrinkov. According to experts, they can cause irreversible changes in the body of present and future young generations.

The structure of the Coca-Cola, except water, which is its foundation, is a lot of sugar. Sweetener is only in the Coca-cola-light ", and what kind – depends on the country where the drink is made. Most often it is aspartame. One of the ingredients "softdrinkov" – carbon dioxide (carbon dioxide) in fairly large quantities. The investigation of his actions – belching, often occurs after a glass of "Coke".

Passion Coca-Cola "and similar drinks lead to obesity. The risk of obesity, not only in that it increases the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease, but that exacerbates social and psychological problems of children and young people who prefer very sweet drinks. The number of obese adolescents in the United States over the past 30 years has increased dramatically: among boys – by half (from 7 to 15%) among girls – three times (from 4 to 13%). Studies have shown that fat adolescents receive from soda more than 10% of daily calories, while their counterparts with normal weight – only 7% of calories.

The second consequence of excessive consumption "softdrinkov" – future development of osteoporosis, a state where the bones become brittle and break easily. Kids drink soda instead of milk and dairy products, which are the main suppliers of calcium for the body. In the 70 years, children and teenagers were drinking milk and dairy products, twice larger than the "Coke", is the ratio of the reverse. Especially dangerous is for girls: from 9 to 18 years they have actively accumulated in the bones of calcium, which in subsequent years, only spent. And if 18 years’ of calcium is small, the increased risk of osteoporosis in adulthood. Fracture of the femoral neck, typical of women’s old age – a classic manifestation of osteoporosis.

Another nuisance from sugary drinks – caries. After all, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola "and their relatives contain a lot of refined sugar.

"Softdrinki" can stimulate the emergence of cardiovascular disease. In 25% of intake of sugar in the blood greatly increases the concentration of the triglycerides, which, like cholesterol contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. This type of metabolism, usually occurs when the propensity to diabetes.

Discuss the question of a direct link between the consumption of sugary carbonated drinks and the formation of kidney stones. It is suggested that this contributes to phosphoric acid, which is used for acidification of the Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola. Therefore, people with a hereditary predisposition to the formation of stones is better not to drink "Coke". To test this hypothesis, surveyed more than a thousand patients who were found kidney stones. They drank daily at least a glass of "Coke". Half of them recommended to reduce the consumption of the drink twice.Three years later, a survey was repeated. It turned out that those who began drinking "Cola" is less a new kidney stones occurred three times less.

Dyes belonging to the "softdrinkov" may cause allergic reactions – from urticaria and rhinitis to bronchial asthma.

Rating the world’s most useful beverages were scientists from the University of California at Los Angeles. Based on the contents of the list of antioxidants in beverages.

Now the word "antioxidants" heard everywhere, mostly through advertising various food products. Almost every manufacturer of tea or yogurt is committed to deliver its products icon contains antioxidants, but what it means, they know very few. Water would they somehow help, like with a somewhat struggling, and pokonkretnee? Try to understand.

First, anti-oxidants – this is not a separate species of some nutrients, but the common name for the elements with the ability to fight free radicals. Free radicals, in turn, are special molecules that can destroy other molecules and even cells of your body. Normally they have to fight viruses and bacteria, to participate in the formation of hormones, the production of energy and other vital processes. However, with the age of free radicals in the body becomes more and more, the body can not control them, and they begin to destroy it from within. With the formation of free radicals doctors attributed the development of many diseases (including cancer, arthritis, heart disease, ulcer disease, etc.), as well as the aging process.

That’s from this trouble and can you protect antioxidants. These include vitamins A, C, E, as well as other elements such as zinc, selenium, glutathione, and some others. Individually, they are part of very many foods, but found all together, and even in fairly large quantities – not so easy. Here this criterion and was the key to making up the rating of the most useful beverages. He looks as follows:

1. Pomegranate juice. In addition to these elements, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, sodium. Very helpful for the cardiovascular system, is indicated for hypertension, anemia and anemia. Do not drink for people with peptic ulcer and acidity.

2. Orange juice. Excellent way to prevent colds and flu. Also reduces fatigue, boosts brain function and strengthen blood vessels. Useful for hypertension and atherosclerosis. Contraindicated in people with high acidity and low content of calcium.

3. Grape juice. It is rich in B vitamins that are useful for hair and nails, and ascorbic acid, which will help you fight germs. In addition, grape juice helps to maintain a strong memory, struggling with breast cancer and supports the resilience and elasticity of the skin.

4. Blueberry juice. The people blueberries known fact that reinforces the vision and rescues from diarrhea. In fact, its useful properties are much broader – blueberries helps fight diabetes, prevents gum disease and keeps the youth of the whole organism.

5. Juicy cherry. It contains vitamin A needed teeth and eyes, iron and vitamin C (fights infection). Also reduces the risk of many cancers, prevent the emergence of diseases of the urinary tract, helps preserve memory in adulthood.

6. Acai Juice. This berry is not very popular, and pity. It contains special plant pigments, moisturizing the skin and prevent its aging. In the Acai fruit is also a lot of fatty acids necessary for normal functioning of the brain and nervous system.

7. Cranberry juice. It has antipyretic effect helps with coughing and rhinitis, removes from the body toxins, improves the activity of the brain and relieves fatigue. Is also a strong diuretic, without washing out from the body he needs potassium.

8. Red wine. Several investigations of the properties of wine last year showed his favor in the prevention of cancer. Many nutritionists also advise to take wine daily with meals, but drug treatment specialists warn: "Your dose should not exceed 30 grams per day.

9. Tea. Variety has little meaning. The main thing is that this was a real tea, but do not concentrate in the bottle. Tea not only tones and invigorates, but also struggling with heart disease and various infections.

10. Apple juice. Apply with atherosclerosis, liver, bladder and kidneys. Also normalizes the bowels, removes toxins from the body and quickly restore power after exercise.

It is believed that 30% of calories derived during the day should fall on fats. However, not all fats are equally useful.

Most useful for the heart are the monounsaturated fats, which help neutralize the harmful effects on the body triglycerides.Accordingly, it is monounsaturated fats are the most beneficial for the heart and cardiovascular system.

Below is a list compiled on the basis of the content in the products of monounsaturated fats. However, we should not forget that other bodies are needed for normal functioning of polyunsaturated and saturated fats (eg, colon), in respect of which the list can make some adjustments, moving the butter, milk, cream, cheese, meat and entrails and fat layer of the second group in the third.

1. The group of "good" fall into the following products:

2. The group of "bad" fall:

3. Somewhere in the middle are:

Stress should be, the fact that the fats found in chips, some candy and baked goods, fried foods are especially harmful, not only because of them dominated by hydrogenated (fats, processed, in order to increase their hardness at room temperature), but and because the fats are exposed to extreme heat treatment during preparation of these products, which leads to new advisable to changes in their structure.

It should complain that he simply can not lose weight, be sure to hear: "Eat less." Ingenious! Only now my dose is four times less than sovetchitsy, and the weight does not go away …

Pathetic polkotlety and crisp lettuce – this dinner. It should hold out until the end of the day. The main thing – do not think about food.Do not think about the chop, fried potatoes, a biscuit with cream and a thick milk chocolate bar with nuts. Especially on the biscuit.Do not think. Because it must work! One last till the evening of yoghurt with apple, and awake …

But why then scales have stalled – 75 kilograms? Why even with such a diet can not lose weight? Obviously, because you are doing something wrong. Maybe you just …

… Do not eat what you want

Specifically, count calories, but does not account for satiety. Imagine a tablespoon of vegetable oil and a bowl of boiled rice or buckwheat. And there, and there is about 150 calories, but cereal something much better fed! Maybe you refuse to garnish, considering them too much calorie? But if you deny me bread, pasta, grains, then to maintain at least some feelings of satiety willy-nilly eat more of another, and much more satisfying.

Another common mistake – too much fruit. Hudeyuschego take them for a light meal.

But modern imported gifts of nature are too sweet, quite fat and thus not very nourishing. Besides fruit acids irritate the stomach and increases appetite.

So … In drawing up the menu, consider not only the caloric content, but also satiety foods. To make your choice, try to have less fatty food. By estimates of experts, if a person is not abused butter and fatty meats, roasts on non-stick frying pans, one that it reduces caloric intake by 15-20%. And do not forget about the treachery of fruit – in any case do not refuse them, but be aware of their calorie content.

… Eat less than you

Many hudeyuschego concept of "less" somehow by itself is replaced by the notion of "less". We do not have time for breakfast, in the heat of labor enthusiasm does not break for lunch, much of the refuse dinners – holy! And the result is that for the whole day – three cups of coffee, a couple of crackers, hurry sgryzennoe apple … and polbatona cooked sausages, when the middle of the night awake by hunger.

Hungry and thin – not one and the same.

Too rare meals are fraught with constant hunger and more hearty meal, when unable to fall greedily eating. Yes, and just health problems.

So … should be the exact opposite – there are private, but small portions. To lose weight, you need not less than 4-5 meals per day. In this mode can reduce daily calories by an average of 10-15%. The reason is simple: feeding fractional, we always like a little hungry, so we are easier to control the appetite.

… Eat too fast

Not only are rare, so more and strive to meet in five minutes! Not even on the go ", and" ran "strive to eat his portion. And another. Because there are brutally want.

Impression that hudeyuschego secretly hope that if you shorten the time for lunch or dinner, then swallow fewer calories. Not so! Deceive the body can not. On the contrary, you do not notice as you eat more.

So … The slower we eat, the less food naedimsya – because the feeling of saturation comes at once. This method also allows you to win ten percent of daily calories. To "slow" food, good composing complex dishes. For example, put on a plate, two side dishes, cutting vegetables, canned green peas or corn … And then every time by sending a fork in your mouth, you’ll notice the emergence of a new taste and instinctively slow down the process to better rasprobovat food. Yes, and enjoyment of food you get so much more.

… Manage your relentless struggle against hunger

Even if a hundred times in a row with an expression to say: "I do not want to eat, collywobbles not stop. The feeling of hunger will interfere focus on elementary matters and give a lot of unpleasant sensations. And when he finally comes to food, so hard not to get carried away!

So … Learn how to gently spoof hunger. This will help you receive, which is called "Pre-meal". A small snack (a glass of kefir with Bran Finisher roll, or milk with a spoonful of cereal, or sour milk with low fat cheese) before the main meal will reduce your appetite. This technique is particularly good hearty meal before – for example, before going to visit her mother or the triumph of the restaurant.

Proved that the "pre-meal" helps safely reduce the caloric content of the subsequent lunch or dinner at 30-35%.

… Little move

All of the above tips are very good. But to lose weight, alone, change in diet is not enough.

So … After today’s dinner, go for a walk-ka. Or go to the house the way you usually committed to the shuttle bus. Or go out on the subway one stop earlier. And do not forget to take with a good mood. We know that successful weight loss provide three components: nutrition, movement and a positive attitude.

Regain vigor and good health is not too difficult – just need to properly make your diet

Late autumn and winter – not the best time to sit on a diet. In order to keep warm, the body needs extra energy, so the cold months the specialists recommend increasing your intake by about 400 Kcal.

How to pamper yourself?

Particularly bad in the cold season have vegetarians. They are bombarded with endless colds and bouts of bad temper. The whole point of lacking in their diet of animal protein. Animal proteins contain essential amino acids, which are necessary for good immune system. So in any case not deny yourself in meat, fish and poultry. By the way, the cold – a good reason for that from time to time to pamper yourself, another piece of lard. Many believe that nothing harmful and can not be, but lard contains a substance called arhidonovaya acid, which helps the body including immune response when dealing with viruses and bacteria.

But the sweet, contrary to popular belief, does not "winter" product. Many are used to lift yourself up with sweet buns or chocolate. Indeed, sweets contain serotonin (a substance called "the hormone of happiness"), which is capable of time to dispel melancholy. But within a few hours after the chocolate was eaten, serotonin begins to slow down the brain, leaving you feel even more severe lethargy and apathy.

And, of course, do not forget about vitamins and microelements. Without them, colds and infections can not be avoided, and so do not forget about fresh fruits, vegetables and cereals.

To call a dainty pile of squirming white larvae, no normal person risknet. But medicine – please!

Increasingly, researchers show evidence that deliver mankind from many ailments can be … normal worms. Inquisitive scientific minds have long noted that in backward countries, where the local population of almost one hundred percent is infected with parasites, people do not suffer from severe immune disorders. For example, a man lives in harmony with the settled in his gut ascaris or pinworm – but bronchial asthma or rheumatism he faces. Picked up the other worms (strongiloidov) – and hepatitis certainly not ill. Initially, researchers tried to attribute it to harm civilization: our immune system are weak constant stress and poor environment, which are unfamiliar people in developing countries. But …

Infection of contagion …

Much more convincing was another explanation.

- Parasites somehow eliminate the time-balancing the immune system, – said Professor Alexander Bronstein, head of the Cabinet of parasitic and tropical diseases in the Infectious Diseases Clinical Hospital number 1, head of the department of modern methods of treatment of the Institute of Medical Parasitology and Tropical Medicine. EI Martsinovsky. - Perhaps allocate specific substances that increase the protection of the organism. Thus arose the idea of using parasites for treatment. But not everybody, but those that are not only easy to get, but just as easy to banish from the human body.

A new method parazitoterapii now undergoing final "test run" in international clinical trials. The Applicant rank number one in modern medicine – whipworm. It is not too dangerous and fairly common parasite, which prefers to live in a person’s cecum. Infected them in ordinary life is easy – sometimes enough to eat unwashed vegetables or fruits. And in real life treatment should be required of him, because he can provoke the development of appendicitis. But if you suffer from, for example, ulcerative colitis – is specifically infected. Conclusively proven: stranger course of the disease much easier, ulcers begin to heal, and the patient soon recovers practically, what to make using traditional medicines, it is impossible. Diagnosis of ulcerative colitis "means a life-long use of pills, which are nevertheless little help from the agonizing pain. For the average person seems to be horrified – to know that somewhere inside him crawling worms.But the patients are ready for this – just to get rid of suffering. Moreover withdraw vlasoglava elementary – one tablet. And patients do not infect human parasites (they are hard to obtain in laboratory conditions), and pork, which is even less dangerous to humans.

In the fight tentatively called "worms against hay fever" victory, apparently, too, will win first. Researchers have found that with the advent of the body Ankilov – the so-called useful for those with allergies, parasites, living in the 12-duodenum, – are shortness of breath, watery eyes and other allergic reactions.

Wormy drink

Of course, the harm caused by parasitic worms no one has repealed. They retard growth, mental and physical development of children, some provoke the appearance of tumors, making it more feasible infected with tuberculosis and AIDS, prevent the development of good immunity after vaccination. That is, vaccination, if these "sponge" in the body, are almost useless. Same hookworm can cause iron deficiency anemia.

Not to be confused: the lack of hygiene (dirty hands, unwashed fruits, etc.) to the treatment is not relevant! Procedure podsazhivaniya parasites in the body looks like. The patient drinks a special drink, which are floating eggs of intestinal worms. In humans, it is these parasites do not multiply, and, once will do their work, they "asked" to exit.
