What is consuming your energy? The answer is simple: digestion. Yes, it is digestion! Do you know that complete digestion consumes more energy than any internal function of the human body? Some experts estimate that digestion will consume nearly half the energy in your body. Digestion is the key, which can improve the degree of beauty, and vice versa-it consumes valuable energy that could have been used for other functions, thus reducing the degree of beauty.
Beauty detox diet aims to release energy from digestion. It is the only and most important method, which can redirect a lot of energy, make you lose weight easily and make beauty reach its peak.
Your body system has been trying to keep a perfect balance, so that you can get excellent health and beauty, but the premise of everything is that you must first remove the toxic waste that keeps piling up in your body. The more efficiently you digest food (that is, the less energy your body consumes when digesting food), the more energy your body has to get rid of old toxic substances and do all the work that makes you more beautiful. When you digest food inefficiently, the accumulation of toxic substances will accelerate.
Removing old waste to detoxify yourself is the key to making your digestive function work effectively. Once the toxic waste in your body is reduced, your energy will automatically increase, because your body can digest and do other things more easily. With more energy left in your body, you will start to lose weight, look a few years younger (even dozens of years old), your skin will start to shine, and your hair will become vibrant, healthy and bright.
Most dieting methods focus on counting calories, carbohydrates and protein, but you can't know whether your body can effectively decompose or utilize the food you eat. These diet plans do not consider the so-called beauty energy, and they never know that these energies are actually wasted on digesting food that is difficult to decompose. Just counting calories, carbohydrates and protein intake can't tell you whether a food can be properly used by the human body, how much nutrition it has, or how much fiber it contains; Nor can it provide you with any clues about how many foreign chemicals, preservatives and additives are contained in a certain food.
This is why dieting to lose weight is always like a sad routine and torture, which will only make us feel lost and lose our vitality, which is one of the reasons why people age faster. If you want to get endless health and beauty, it is not feasible to write down a bunch of numbers! Don't worry, because you will soon learn simple ways to lose weight and regain your vitality.
A beauty and detoxication diet rich in minerals, enzymes and fibers is helpful to smooth the intestines, remove waste, and enable the body to absorb nutrients effectively. However, because the toxic waste in the body may have accumulated for several years or even decades, deep detoxification cannot be achieved in a blink of an eye, and it must be achieved through a gradual, properly controlled and regular process-and it must continue. Quick detoxification can make you quite uncomfortable-you may even feel sick. However, as long as you make some important changes to the food you eat, you will soon start to find changes.
Eat more fresh vegetables and less animal food. The best way to improve overall health and beauty is to fill the diet with complete and unrefined plant foods. The book "A fork is better than a scalpel" mentions that "natural plant food can provide necessary nutrition for a balanced and healthy diet. Among the nutrients in animal foods, except vitamin B 12, other nutrients are abundant in various plant foods, and vitamin B 12 can be taken in through nutritional supplements. 」
In the past, a plant-based diet was enough to get enough vitamin B 12, because microorganisms in the soil would produce vitamin B 12. Now, all the food has been disinfected and the soil on it will be washed clean. Although you can also keep a little meat in your diet to meet the needs of tasting food, socializing, family or other needs, there is actually no nutritional demand that makes you have to eat meat. We will talk about protein in later chapters, and other parts will let you know that if you don't lack calories in your diet, you basically don't have to worry about protein deficiency.
In order to make the body work effectively, vegetables are one of the most important food categories, and green vegetables are the most nutritious components in all foods. They are rich in alkaline minerals, including calcium, chlorophyll and amino acids. These ingredients are the most critical cosmetic ingredients, which can regenerate and purify your cells.
Besides green vegetables, you will want to eat other vegetables, which will provide you with important minerals, enzymes and vitamins. Plant fiber will help clean up the waste in your body and make you feel full. If you can, you'd better eat only fresh vegetables. If you can't get fresh vegetables or have no time to buy them, frozen vegetables are the second best choice, but you must avoid canned vegetables because they may contain preservatives or chemicals, such as bisphenol A, and have high sodium content and lower nutritional value than fresh or frozen vegetables.
Eat more lettuce and less cooked vegetables.
Lettuce intake is the key to get the most beauty vitamins, enzymes and nutrients, so eat more lettuce salad every day! Any heating means will destroy some nutrients. However, I know it is impossible to eat only salad for three meals, and you can still eat some cooked vegetables-especially during the transition period and dinner. When cooking vegetables, don't let them burn or overcook, because you should keep as many nutrients as possible, such as steamed or slightly cooked vegetable soup, so as to keep some nutrients in vegetables and ensure that they are easy to digest when eating.
Restricting animal protein
In the past ten years, many diets with high protein and low carbohydrate have become very popular. In 2002, a study sponsored by Akin Supplementary Medical Research Center was published, which required 5/kloc-0 obese people to adopt a low-carbohydrate Akin diet. After six months, 4 1 subject kept this diet and lost an average of 9? Five kilos. That sounds great, right? However, participants only consume 1450 calories per day on average, which is 35% less than the average daily intake of 2250 calories in the United States. No matter what kind of diet, as long as you can limit yourself and eat 35% less every day, you will lose weight-at least in the short term.
In the same study, the researchers also pointed out: "At some point during the 24-week study period, 68% of the subjects indicated constipation, 63% indicated halitosis, 5 1% indicated headache, 10% indicated alopecia, and a woman indicated an increase in menstrual bleeding. 」
Another amazing figure in this study shows that the calcium excreted by dieters in urine has increased by 35%, which is a big problem for bone density and health. And the dieting method that will cause such serious constipation shows that this method is really quite abnormal for the human body. Constipation will leave toxins in the human body and accelerate aging.
Digesting animal protein will produce various by-products in the body, such as purine, uric acid, ammonia and so on. These toxins will be absorbed by the colon, enter your blood and circulate throughout the body. When the blood is full of toxins, it is naturally impossible to transport minerals with cosmetic effects, and these toxins will age and clog the facial skin. In addition, taking too much protein will overload the liver and kidneys. Gabriel, MD? In his book Conscious Diet, Gabriel Cousens, M.D., discussed how ammonia, a by-product of protein's digestion, leads to aging: "Ammonia is the decomposition product of a high-meat diet, and its toxicity directly affects the body. Studies have found that it can cause free radical damage and crosslinking (an effect related to skin aging and wrinkle formation), and at the same time it will consume the vitality of the body. 」
Ketosis may be the result of low carbohydrate. Ketone, a by-product, will accumulate in your body and make your blood acidic. Acidic constitution will accelerate the aging process. Look at those people who eat a high-protein and low-carbohydrate diet. They usually look like "tough guys" and are older than their actual age. I'd say these people look "old skin"!
This study, published in the Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition, discussed the short-term and long-term effects of a high-protein and low-carbohydrate diet and found that: "A variety of complications, such as arrhythmia, cardiac systolic dysfunction, sudden death, osteoporosis, kidney injury, increased cancer risk, impaired physical activity and abnormal fat metabolism, are all related to the long-term lack of carbohydrates in the diet. Animal protein is also the most complex ingredient in all foods: it takes twice as long to pass through the digestive system as other foods, and the slower the food is digested in the body up to 37 degrees Celsius, the greater the chance of producing toxins.
You must limit the intake of protein concentrate. The so-called "the more animal protein you eat, the better" theory will make your skin and body aging, and at the same time, it will increase the risk. Exceeding the protein intake required by the body will bring a heavy burden to the body, result in an acidic constitution (please refer to Chapter 7 for more information on acidic constitution), and waste beautiful energy-you must try your best to avoid it.
Many people love meat, so you may choose not to eat vegan food. If you don't want to, in fact, you don't need to force yourself to give up meat completely, as long as you follow the following tips when ingesting animal protein:
? Buy organic and hormone-free meat, preferably from local farms or meat sources. There is an unknown truth here: animals raised in factories are often fed a lot of chemicals, hormones, antibiotics and steroids before being slaughtered, and these toxins will eventually appear on your plate and enter your body. Published by the Federation of Concerned Scientists in 20001year, by Margaret, director of food and environment courses of the organization? In a report signed by Margaret Mellon, the amount of antibiotics used by animals raised in livestock farms was tested. Dr. Mellon said at the press conference: "Our research found that only1800,000 kg of antibiotics were used in cattle, nearly 5 million kg in pigs and 4.55 million kg in other poultry. In contrast, in this study, only1350,000 kg of antibiotics were used in human drugs, which means that the amount of antibiotics used in healthy animals is eight times that used when we treat ourselves and children. Such surprisingly high doses of antibiotics in food will lead to antibiotic resistance, not to mention many health problems that may be caused by continuous intake of antibiotics. 」
? Eat animal protein at most once a day and only at dinner. Eating animal protein more than once a day will make your body too acidic and require more energy to effectively digest these complex protein chains. Avoid eating animal protein except at dinner time (it is best to sleep every few hours after dinner), so that you will not waste beautiful energy during the day, and you can effectively purify your body, lose weight and beautify your face. Finally, your goal should be to reduce the number of times you eat meat to two or three times a week at most.
I must drink fruits and vegetables (or fruit and vegetable juice) for beauty and detoxification every day. My super food is not exotic, not expensive, and it is not difficult to buy fruits or plants. This kind of green beverage-namely, beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice and beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice-is a real super food. These emerald green drinks are quite delicious, because lemon, fruit and/or stevia can stand out from the "grass flavor" and form a balanced and lovely flavor, and you can feel amazing pleasure at the first sip. Every time I drink them, I can immediately get energy that lasts for several hours, which makes me feel clear and calm, and it is easier to concentrate on the work at hand.
When these fruit and vegetable drinks became a part of my life, my skin began to shine (which is why I named them beauty detoxification drinks). I can't wait for you to have the same experience! The good news is that the biochemical mechanism of your body will begin to change, and your skin, body and vitality will begin to improve. You will start to look forward to drinking these two kinds of beauty detoxification drinks. Many of my customers have been drinking this drink for weeks or months, saying that they are addicted to it.
Do you think it's strange to juice vegetables? Don't want to put your heart in the blender this time? It has nothing to do with it. In the stage of elegance and beauty mentioned in Chapter 8, you don't have to prepare or drink these green drinks. Just using the principles in Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 is enough to provide you with powerful purification and improvement effects. After a while, when you start to experience excellent results and your body becomes cleaner, you might as well go one step further and regain these two kinds of beauty detoxification drinks, which will play an effective role in the beautiful stage.
Maybe you are thinking, how many days a week will it take me to implement the course? Or how long do I have to do it? Then I want to ask you: "How long do you want to be healthy and beautiful? This is not a specific drug for detoxification, but a way to break through bad habits, improve health and be more beautiful forever. In order to increase your intake of minerals and enzymes, your goal is to drink beauty and detoxification fruits and vegetables or beauty and detoxification fruit and vegetable juice every day, or at least five times a week.
Beauty paidu fruits and vegetables Xi
I have been discussing beauty and detoxification fruits and vegetables on my website www.kimberlysnyder and the media for many years. Many of my customers and readers call it "GGS" for short. Stir food before eating, just like "pre-digestion", so that the body does not need to spend extra effort to decompose food, and it will not waste energy because of digestion.
Many important minerals and other nutrients in food are packed in cell walls, and the cell walls must be destroyed to extract nutrients. Therefore, flapping helps the body to absorb all-round nutrition of green vegetables immediately without extra efforts. You can also add some fresh fruits, which can greatly balance the taste of green vegetables and supplement powerful antioxidants and vitamins. Treat the fruits and vegetables with beauty and detoxification as cold drinks to ensure delicious food.
In the past, the best thing about beauty and detoxification fruits and vegetables was that you kept the complete ingredients of fruits and vegetables, so you could still eat all the fibers. In nature, vegetables and fruits are rich in juice and fiber. I firmly believe that the arrangement of nature is the most impeccable. I have a firm attitude towards eating all-natural food. The fruits and vegetables for beauty and detoxification used to be made of all-natural food with complete nutrition-only after pulping and pre-decomposition. When you get used to this new diet, fiber will become your best friend. It can sweep away the toxins that are constantly sucked out of your body and promote gastrointestinal peristalsis. Increasing fiber intake is the most important step to continuously purify the body.
In addition to other important functions, the liver can excrete excess body fat into the small intestine through bile. If the fiber content in the diet is high enough (increase the daily fiber intake by drinking beauty and detoxification fruits and vegetables), these excess fats will be taken out of the body, thus reducing the circulation of fat and toxins and helping to lose weight (great! )。 If the fiber content in the diet is too low, some fats and toxins will flow back to the liver through the intestinal-hepatic circulation (liquid circulation between the intestine and the liver), so they cannot be excreted (terrible! )。
In the past, the high fiber content of beauty and detoxification fruits and vegetables can also make you feel full from morning to lunch-especially at the beginning, you are used to the concentrated and rich food in the past. In the past, beauty detoxified fruits and vegetables had another advantage over beauty detoxified fruit and vegetable juice. When the whole food is beaten instead of crushed and squeezed into fruit and vegetable juice, the oxidation rate will be slower. Therefore, fruits and vegetables can be stored in the refrigerator for several days, but it is best to drink fresh fruit and vegetable juice within 15 minutes after juicing (special cold-pressed juicer can preserve enzymes in fruit and vegetable juice for a long time).
Beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice
Norman? Dr. Walker is the father of modern beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice. He has lived for more than a hundred years! The fruit and vegetable juice for beauty and detoxification is rich in enzymes, oxygen, minerals and vitamins. According to Dr. Walker, these nutrients are "released" from other food elements and are easily absorbed by the intestinal wall.
When you go through other necessary adjustments and come to the stage of substantial beauty, the fruit and vegetable juice of beauty detoxification will begin to play a role. In the substantive beauty stage, whether it is beauty detoxification fruits and vegetables or beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice is in your menu, it depends on how your daily meal plan is arranged. Beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice is a pure liquid nutrient that can nourish your body. After the body becomes alkaline after purification, it is necessary to reduce the * * * brought by solid food.
The fruit and vegetable juice for beauty and detoxification is no longer made from the natural form of food. The food is juiced and the fiber is removed. Because of the lack of fiber, the beauty and detoxification fruit and vegetable juice may not give you satisfaction or long-term satiety like the past beauty and detoxification fruit and vegetable juice. Many people have reached the stage of substantial beauty, but they drink fruit and vegetable juice not for beauty and detoxification, but for beauty and detoxification, because they prefer fruit and vegetable juice and think that fruit and vegetable juice can bring more energy. Personally, I often drink these two kinds of drinks, but I have never missed the fiber-rich beauty and detoxification fruit and vegetable juice, which is my favorite. Beauty and detoxification fruit and vegetable juice is a snack later every day.
You may think, what about fruit and vegetable juices or fruits and vegetables that can be bought in the market? But in fact, fruit juice and all aluminum foil bags or bottled drinks are not counted. After the bottling process, it means that the fruit and vegetable juice has been sterilized at high temperature, and it also means that the vegetables and fruits inside have been treated at high temperature, and the enzymes and nutrients have been erased or deteriorated. Fruit and vegetable juices can only be squeezed and drunk to absorb enzymes and nutrients. However, some special cold-pressed juicers can really keep the enzymes and nutrients in fruits and vegetables for a day or two, provided that these fruit and vegetable juices must be kept in cold storage and cannot be sterilized at high temperature. Let the beauty detoxification drink have a change.
Beauty and detoxification fruits and vegetables can be stored in your refrigerator for two or three days, but if it is convenient for you, you can prepare more fruits and vegetables at a time and freeze them in batches. This is also a great practice, and many of my customers will do the same.
Although it is still fresh and ideal, enzymes and other nutrients can be well preserved in the freezer. Don't worry that mass production and freezing will cause nutrient loss. As long as you drink it, you can still absorb rich minerals and nutrients from it. As long as you follow the plan, drink a cup of beauty detoxification drink every morning-this is more important, even if you don't drink it for a few days now, there is nothing to worry about.
I remember that the recipes of beauty detoxification fruits and vegetables and beauty detoxification fruit and vegetable juice are just big principles. Many people send me emails or leave messages on my beauty detoxification website saying, "Oh! I hate eating coriander, but you want me to drink it? " Or "celery makes me want to throw up, I can't help it. Then you don't have to force it, just skip the ingredients you don't like! Just change the celery to your favorite (such as cucumber), or add more other vegetables.
Take your favorite fruit as the warm-up performance of the concert, and then take your favorite green leafy vegetables as the lead singer. The opening band (that is, the fruit) can set off the exquisite performance of the main show (that is, the green leafy vegetables)-this is also the main reason why you came to the concert.
The change of composition can ensure that you get all kinds of important minerals, because different minerals usually exist in different vegetables in large quantities. As long as you continue to follow this plan, you will be surprised, because you will find that when the biochemical reactions in your body begin to change, your tastes and preferences for different vegetables will become more and more extensive. I used to think kale was disgusting, and I tried my best to escape arugula, but now these two ingredients have become my favorite. Who would have thought? So remember, when your body starts to change, your taste will also change.
Besides, try to choose local, seasonal and organic fruits and vegetables. These fruits and vegetables can also reduce their carbon footprint without wading through mountains and rivers! They are also rich in minerals, because these fruits and vegetables have enough time to ripen naturally in the garden or orchard.
Give up dairy products I often emphasize that all kinds of food can be properly ingested. If you don't want to quit completely, you can also add fish and other animal proteins to your diet, but there is only one thing you can't compromise: quit dairy products. There is nothing to say, it depends on whether you want to eliminate it immediately or give up step by step. Like elson? Hayes, MD, said in the book Nutrition and Health Care: "Eating milk from time to time is the biggest misunderstanding and mistake in the field of nutrition. 」
You can't find any other species on earth who will continue to drink milk after weaning, and no species (except humans) will drink milk from other animals. Stop and think. The act of eating dairy products has completely violated the laws of nature.
You may think, "Hey, why do I always hear about drinking milk to supplement calcium?" "Also, skim milk and yogurt is not very healthy? You will hear these words because dairy farming is a huge business opportunity. Hundreds of millions of people eat dairy products every day, which can make people earn a lot of money. Therefore, they will inject a lot of money to ensure that these "health-friendly" claims can be widely publicized, and eventually produce such a message to educate the public that dairy products can bring many "benefits" to children.
The problem is casein.
Casein is the main protein in milk, accounting for more than 87% of all protein in milk, while whey is another protein in milk, accounting for only a small part of it.
There are countless studies on the adverse effects of dairy products, but I want to share the view that casein is the most common and carcinogenic of all animal proteins. Life-saving Diet is sponsored by famous institutions such as National Institutes of Health, American Cancer Society and American Cancer Institute. Long-term in-depth research has found that the intake of casein is closely related to the promotion of cancer cell growth when exposed to carcinogens. Dr Campbell studied the relationship between diet and exposure to carcinogens, and found that the intake of protein was closely related to the development of cancer. Of all the protein studied by Dr. Campbell, he found that casein is "the most common and most likely to cause cancer" and will promote the development of cancer cells at all stages.
There is also some casein in human milk, but the casein in milk is 30% more than that in human milk, which can help cattle develop strong bones. Casein is a fairly stable adhesive, which can be used as raw material for the production of woodworking glue. In the absence of necessary enzymes, such as lactase, casein will condense in the stomach, making it difficult for the body to digest. When casein is decomposed in human stomach, it will produce casein. Casein is a peptide or a protein fragment, which will produce an opium effect, just like smoking opium in the brain, leading to a slight pleasure effect-as far as unhealthy casein is concerned, this is a very difficult effect; Some studies hypothesize that casomorphins (from casein) can cause or aggravate autism.
Dairy products have also been found to double the risk of prostate cancer: Harvard University reviewed the research since 200 1 year and found: "Men who eat a lot of dairy products have almost twice the risk of prostate cancer, and the risk of prostate cancer metastasis or death is four times that of men who eat low dairy products. 」
Then there is the mucus problem.
There is another problem with dairy products: mucus. Although it sounds disgusting, mucus is actually a natural secretion produced in your body to protect the mucosal surface. These mucus are clean and smooth, which will cover everything you eat, but if you secrete too much, it will cause problems. Mucus will wrap the toxins and toxic residues left by food and become sticky and turbid, thus "suppressing" the toxins and helping to excrete them. Excessive mucus will start to solidify and accumulate along your intestinal wall, and then it will mix into chyme, slowing down the speed of food passing through the intestine. Dairy products are one of the most likely foods to form mucus.
When you eat dairy products, cheese or other dairy products, trying to expel mucus will increase the burden on your body. Dairy products cause confusion in the operation of the body from the beginning, so your body will try its best to excrete it in various ways, such as expectoration, mucus or blisters. Because dairy products are too acidic, blocked and difficult to digest, continuous intake of dairy products can't help you lose the extra weight of annoying parts-abdomen, upper arms, thighs, buttocks and double chin, and ultimately make you unable to achieve truly beautiful goals. When you start to reduce the intake of dairy products, your body can start to excrete mucus caused by dairy products, lose a few kilograms, your skin begins to shine, and your beauty begins to shine.
What about calcium?
You keep hearing people say that you need calcium to strengthen bones and prevent diseases such as osteoporosis, and the best way to absorb calcium is to take dairy products. However, there is evidence that bone problems such as osteoporosis and hip fracture are more common in groups with high intake of dairy products and calcium.
The milk intake of American women is 30 to 32 times that of New Guinea, but the incidence of hip fracture is 47 times that of New Guinea. According to the analysis data of many countries, the intake of dairy products is closely related to the incidence of hip fractures. 1992, Yale university medical college analyzed the relationship between the intake of protein and the incidence of fracture in women over 50 years old, and found that the intake of animal protein was related to the fracture phenomenon of 70% subjects.
Based on extensive research in the book "Life-saving Diet", Colin? Dr Campbell published in The New York Times: There is basically no problem of osteoporosis in China, but the average daily calcium intake of China people is 544 mg. In contrast, the average daily calcium intake of Americans is as high as 1 143 mg, most of which comes from dairy products.
Too many studies have shown the same correlation between them: the more protein you take, the more calcium you lose. Milk is indeed rich in calcium, but most of it is not easily absorbed or utilized by the human body. Dairy products contain a lot of phosphorus, which will combine with calcium in the digestive tract, so that most of the calcium can not be absorbed by the human body. In addition, dairy products are extremely acidic to the body. When the acidity in the body increases, calcium is more likely to be lost from bones, because calcium is an alkaline mineral that can neutralize acidity.
Stop looking at the nutrition label of dairy products, because you are tempted by how much calcium it contains, and you will only lose more calcium after digestion. Eat more plant foods that can form alkalinity! It can not only provide calcium, but also avoid calcium loss from the body. The best sources of calcium are dark, leafy and green vegetables, such as seaweed, nuts and seeds. The following list lists your best sources of plant calcium:
Substitute dairy products
I have been emphasizing the importance of the transition period, one of which is to find substitutes to replace your favorite food, so that you can eat beautiful and delicious food more easily. Cheese lovers, tell you good news: goat milk and goat cheese are much better than milk and dairy products. Compared with milk, the natural enzymes in goat milk are similar to those in human body, and the digestion efficiency of goat milk is much better than that of human body. If you like cheese, you should be happy to have some goat cheese as a reward.
Goat cheese is best eaten raw, that is, goat cheese that has not been sterilized at high temperature, but goat cheese that has been sterilized at high temperature is better than dairy products that have been sterilized at high temperature. Sheep cheese is the second best choice. It is still more digestible than dairy products, but it is also high in fat.
Here are other healthier foods that can be used instead of your favorite dairy products:
