Red Tea Diet


When you decide on following a diet you have to make a good decision about which diet you are going to follow, because you got to keep one thing in mind: weight loss does not also mean weight maintenance.
Desperate dieters, however, are easily seduced by anecdotal accounts of quick weight loss or promises of easy success. You have to know that some diets are based on good science and are safe and effective, but most are useless, untested, or dangerous.Guided by simple dieting principles, the healthy weight loss concept reveals the way to lasting weight loss success.First we think it’s best to focus on feeling good. Secondly to remind that in order to live a healthy and energetic life in a body that is fit to do that job, attempting to lose weight only will not be the key. There are some other changes you might want to bring into your life. In order to have the cells of your body function properly they have to receive the right nutritious elements and toxins must be kept away from them as much as possible and should be disposed of properly. In order to reach that goal we have the following recommendations for you:
1) Consume as much as you can of the ‘right nutrition’;

2) Avoid as much as you can of the ‘wrong nutrition’;

3) Exercise moderately;

4) Be happy with every small change you’ve been able to make permanently;

5) Don’t make weight loss more complicated as it is.
And now I am going to present you a natural diet which really made me feel much better: the red tea diet. What you have to do is very easy; you just have to drink 4 cups of tea each day-breakfast, afternoon, lunch and dinner.
All the low fat foods are permitted, like pasta, rise, vegetables and fish. It isn’t a fast diet; in about two weeks you are going to lose 3 kg but it’s a healthy one.
The foods you should avoid are: sugar, meat, sweets, bananas and grapes.
Good luck!! It will be the best gift you’ve ever given yourself!!

Weight Loss Herbs



In the long effort to achieve weight loss, you will no doubt happen to come across herbs. However, some herbs have side effects that can be life threatening, and others simply don’t work.You can find some herbs that really do work though the tricky thing is that it’s really hard to distinguish them.
The most dangerous herbs that you should definitely avoid are those which contain herbal laxatives. The rumours about the effectiveness of herbal laxativs in your goal of losing weight should not convince you at all.Not that it isn’t true that you really can lose a lot of weight though as true as the fact that it can lead to complications, such as not being able to have a bowel movement without help from a laxative. This can be very serious, and should not be attempted.The twin sister of this one is ephedra, another dangerous herb Ephedra. It has been linked to over 800 side effects, some very life threatening. It has even caused a few deaths, so this herb should be strictly avoided.
Good herbs are in good supply too, luckily. Cayenne is a type of pepper that is often made into a spice. Cayenne pepper can be dashed onto many types of food- and this is great since it will accelerate metabolism. Digestion also sees a benefit here, making the herb a very nice addition to many meals. Green tea is another stimulant that will offer a great deal of weight loss. The best part is, you can obtain this tea without caffeine- and still enjoy the effects. Green tea raises metabolism, reduces blood sugar, and is one of the most effective herbs in weight loss there is. You can also try your hand at seaweed, which will help thyroid problems and also give you a good source of minerals your body needs.
Good herbs you can easily find out for yourself.I am sure that you are familiar with the green tea extract.Like the studies have already shown it it is very effective and it has very little side effects that you don’t have to worry about. As long as you stay away from herbs such as Ephedra, and keep herbs such as cayenne and green tea, you will enjoy a very helpful hand in weight loss the natural way.One more thing though, the cayenne pepper isn’t indicated for those who are sensitive to hot spices.
It is important to consult your health care provider before using an herbal supplement, especially if you are taking any medications (whether prescription or over-the-counter). Some herbal supplements are known to interact with medications in ways that cause health problems. Even if your provider does not know about a particular supplement, he can access the latest medical guidance on its uses, risks, and interactions.
