You are what you eat. What you eat and drink and your method of food preparation plays a major role when it comes to weight loss or maintaining a healthy weight.
Here are the top 5 reasons why diet plays a major role in weight loss and marinating a healthy weight:
1. You cannot outdo a bad diet since you are not a professional athlete.
The majority people do not have a personal gym trainer or are not a professional athlete to know how to lose weight on a diet high in carbohydrates and calories. Keep in mind that exercising also increases your appetite and incorporating healthier meals to your diet can help to suppress your appetite.
2. Your body cannot be at its optimum if you are eating wrong foods
Foods packed with salt, carbs, preservatives, additives, artificial coloring and preservatives and foods that are sprayed with chemicals have little or no nutrients. These foods give your body less energy and they take a lot more energy out of your body.
3. Too many people are busy counting calories, not enough people counting chemicals. Many pesticide ridden foods have chemicals that make you fat
Calorie count no longer works since you cannot burn chemicals in artificial sweeteners, or chemicals in food supply like MSG, or high fructose corn syrup. Many pesticide ridden foods have chemicals such as endocrine disruptors that can negatively affect your metabolism and the way your body burns fat.
4. rBGH/rBST growth hormones and antibiotics are consistently used to fatten up farm animals
rBGH/rBST growth hormones are routinely used in farm animals in order to fatten the animals and increase their milk production. These growth hormones are linked to obesity, breast and colon cancer and early puberty. Cows treated with growth hormones get painful udder infection so they have to get antibiotics. The over-use of antibiotics in our food supply can also screw up your metabolism and make you fat.
5. Genetically modified foods
The genes of genetically modified foods are changed and your body deals with GMOs as foreign invader. There have been many studies on lab animals fed on GMOs who ended up suffering from obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, and infertility.
