Some of the problems caused by obesity are:
- Cardiovascular diseases such as high blood pressure
- Vascular problems in the brain because of the fat blocking blood vessels
- Problems in the skin such as stretch marks and new, coarse hair growth
- Gastritis, colitis, hemorrhoids
- Urinary incontinence, kidney stones, prostate cancer
- Diabetes
- Arthritis
- Depression and low self-esteem
- Fatigue, shortness of breath
- Infertility and high-risk pregnancy
- Depression and low self-esteem
- Social Discrimination
Every individual is genetically, psychologically, and physically unique, so if you are severely over weight it is best to consult your doctor so he/she can recommend a weight loss plan that will fit your needs.
If your are moderately over weight, the best remedy is to watch your diet and exercise. But here are some tips that might also help:
Red tea (Pu-erh) – Take 3 or 4 cups of red tea per day. You will lose a few pounds a month without the need for special diets.
Celery tea – Put about 6 clean celery sticks in two liters of water and boil for 28 minutes. Put water in the refrigerator and drink during the day. Repeat the same procedure for 15 days in a row. You can lose about 10 pounds without the need to make changes in your diet. But do not use for more than 15 consecutive days since it could affect eye sight. You can repeat every 6 months.
Apple cider vinegar – Put 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water and drink before each meal. The apple cider vinegar has properties that actually kill fat cells.
Miracle tea - To your favorite tea, add two teaspoons apple cider vinegar and two tablespoons honey. Stir, and take two tablespoons of it with every meal. Lose up to 10 pounds a month.
Tips that never fail
Aerobic Exercise – If you have been living a sedentary life for a long time, begin with low-impact exercises such as walking and swimming. Gradually rise to a more vigorous exercise until you get to at least 20 minutes a day of high-impact aerobic exercise like running or playing tennis.
Drink water – Take 8 glasses of water daily. This will help keep the metabolism working properly.
Avoid fats, refined sugars, and flour – Although desserts are delicious, if we want to lose weight we have no choice but to say good-bye to them, or at least limit them.
Do not eat anything after 6 pm: The body does not have time to metabolize the meals eaten after 6pm. Even if this is the only change in your daily life, you will lose weight.
Eat grapefruit – You have heard about the grapefruit diet. The good news is that grapefruit does burn fat, so eat several grapefruits a day and see the difference.
Maintain a balanced diet – At least twice a week, add to your meals a salad with purple cabbage, carrots, and cucumber flavored with lemon or vinegar.
