PREVENT TO ULCER WITH THESE 7 FOODS!<br />
Ulcer is the name given to tissue loss<br />
caused by gastric acid and digestive<br />
fluids that are released too much in<br />
digestive system organs like stomach<br />
and duodenum. The digestive system<br />
is related to feeding directly, these<br />
patiens who got ulcer need some<br />
knowledges about diet and food.<br />
AND , PLEASE WELCOME, TOP 7 FOODS THAT PROTECT US FROM ULCER:<br />
1) HONEY<br />
We know that one of the most common<br />
causes of ulcer is H. pylori bacteria.<br />
Researchers from New Zealand tested<br />
honey made from the nectar of the Manuka<br />
flower on bacteria from biopsies of gastric<br />
ulcers and found that the honey inhibited<br />
bacterial growth. Other researchers have<br />
been successful in using other types of<br />
honey to halt the growth of H.pylori.
2) BROCCOLI<br />
In one study, after patients who tested positive for the bacteria ate a half cup<br />
of broccoli for seven days, 78 per cent tested negative for the bacteria. Other<br />
studies made on mice, researchers realized that broccoli extracts can<br />
successfully destroy the bacteria in the mice’s digestive tracts.
2) Cabbage<br />
Cabbage has got amino acid<br />
glutamine and scientists think<br />
because of this cabbage is a<br />
anti-ulcer food. Glutamine helps to<br />
improve blood flow to the<br />
stomach, meaning it not only<br />
helps prevent ulcers and can<br />
speed healing of ulcer’s sores.<br />
3) Yoghurt
Yogurt contains some bacteria that can fight H. pylori and may help ulcers heal faster. In<br />
one study in Sweden, people who ate fermented milk products like yogurt for three times<br />
a week were much less likely to have ulcers than people who ate yogurt less often.<br />
4) Fruits high in soluble fiber<br />
Fibre is like a star, we think.<br />
Fibre has a role inhibit ulcers<br />
especially in the duodenum. A<br />
number of studies have found<br />
that people who eat high-fibre<br />
diets have a lower risk of<br />
developing ulcers.
Against the formation of ulcers,<br />
recommended to consume<br />
fruits high in soluble like<br />
apples, melons, bananas,<br />
papaya.<br />
6) Salvia Tea<br />
Salvia tea is good for albeit short-lived, from ulcer pain as the same sore<br />
throat.
7) Omega-3 and omega-6<br />
Healthy oils containing omega-3 and omega-6, such as olive oil, flaxseed, walnuts and<br />
fish, are also thought to be effective against to ulcer because these oils trigger the<br />
secretion of enterogastrin hormone, which suppresses the secretion of gastric acid in the<br />
intestine.
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD ABOUT THE YO-YO EFFECT?<br />
It’s not a game theory or a skill of StarWars character. It’s a term about diet therapy.<br />
Imagine! You’re a overweight person and want to weight loss. Every year,<br />
espacially time which coming summer, you find a popular diet. You start this<br />
and realize weight loss very fastly. Nice sounds, right? Unfortunately, that’s<br />
not true. Let us assure you, if you are in this situation, we may say that your<br />
body is unhappy.
Yo-yo effect circle is as follows:
This syndrome is usually a very unfortunate syndrome, which takes a lot of<br />
weight in the winter, trying to give all of them in the summer, shock and very<br />
low calories containing diets or a single type of nutrient diet that brings the<br />
metabolism to a standstill.
Each diet initiative makes it harder for weight loss few pounds more than<br />
before, and weight loss act is comfortable for person during years, even it<br />
becomes almost impossible. This is a reaction that the body gives to the<br />
restriction-free nutrition cycle.<br />
WHICH FOOD HELP TO LOSE WEIGHT?
If you are a person who hard to lose weight, the question<br />
that above title isn’t available for you. Firstly you have to<br />
pay attention the point what making mistake during the<br />
process. The best way is determine this point, consult a<br />
dietitian and internist.
There are many factors that affect weight loss such as metabolic rate,<br />
hormonal / biochemical status, nutritional status, or diet history, and these<br />
factors must be examined one by one. If you are already following a diet, if<br />
you are following your diet and you are still slow to lose weight, the problem<br />
may be low water consumption, constipation and low movement.
CELLULITE: HOW CAN I PREVENT IT?<br />
The most powerful of these thoughts is the formation of cellulite by collapsing<br />
structures we call collagen in the connective tissues, especially depending<br />
on where the age or fat tissue is covered.
The most powerful thought of the formation of cellulite thesis is by collapsing<br />
structures call collagen in the connective tissues, especially depending on<br />
the age or fat tissue situation.<br />
Therefore, approach to cellulite with diet also relevant to protecting these<br />
colloids and reducing fat tissue volume.
Studies have shown that vitamin A promotes colloidal production of retinoic<br />
acid. Rich in grapefruit, red pepper, tomatoes, parsley, apricots and<br />
pineapple.
Drinking water will also help protect the colonies. Apart from this, we should<br />
also include vitamin C rich foods such as lemon, kiwi and orange in our diet.
Finally soy... Soy is phytoestrogenic, that meaning is the effect of simulating<br />
estrogen and because of this it can slow down collagen degradation by and<br />
prevent cellulite formation.
