Healthy Weight Loss is Now Achievable Through Raw Vegan Diet, According to RawFoodDietPlan.info
Posted: November 7, 2012 at 9:41 pm
Houston, Texas (PRWEB) November 07, 2012
Healthy weight loss is the method that is generally used by doctors and physicians when providing weight loss information to men and women. One new website is offering an in-depth look into a vegan diet method that is currently used by some people to expedite healthy weight loss. The http://www.rawfooddietplan.info website has been launched with this raw vegan diet information to help those seeking dietary information to get accurate help online. The information that is offered on this website was written by a certified nutritionist to ensure accuracy.
Dieters that do not eat animal based products are known as vegans. The choices that are made by these groups of people have been integrated into the Raw Food Diet Plan website. Men and women that eat high caloric diets that include animal fat could be at higher risks for weight gain according to medical research. The raw vegan dietary information that is now supplied online provides a mixture of strategies that men or women can use to help boost metabolism naturally that could promote faster weight loss.
Instead of relying on downloadable books, the RawFoodDietPlan.info website makes use of training videos that present information in a fun and exciting way. Some people learn better by watching someone else instead of reading lines of text. These newly created streaming videos teach raw vegan diet information to men and women that are in control of their dietary choices. This online resource is one of the first targeted weight reduction websites to teach vegan concepts with video.
Finding a proper PH balance is one element that some dieters struggle with. Studies have been conducted that reveal PH imbalance can lead to confusion, weight gain and fatigue that can all affect the speed of weight loss in men and women. PH balance and how it can be affected and corrected represents a portion of the information now offered on the Raw Food Diet Plan website. Men and women that can learn to find the mixture of PH balance and raw foods could find the right combination of weight loss that works best for their body.
One of the unique features of the Raw Food Diet Plan website and its raw vegan dietary information is the long-term training that is available. Dieters are presented with an entire program of assistance instead of a simple training manual. This long-term training is a coaching program that offers men and women personal instruction from a certified nutritionist that can help them reach weight reduction goals.
About Raw Food Diet Plan
The Raw Food Diet Plan website is a new website entirely dedicated to promoting healthy weight loss strategies for men and women. The information that is now accessible online provides an accurate representation of many methods that are used as alternatives to dieting or strenuous exercise. The Raw food Diet Plan website was launched in early 2012 to provide expert dietary information to men and women in any part of the world that are struggling to find a viable weight loss solution on the Internet.

Losing weight, especially in the belly, improves sleep quality
Posted: November 7, 2012 at 9:41 pm
ScienceDaily (Nov. 6, 2012) Weight loss, whether it's from dietary changes alone or from diet combined with exercise, can help improve the quality of sleep among people who are overweight or obese, according to a new study by Johns Hopkins researchers.
"We found that improvement in sleep quality was significantly associated with overall weight loss, especially belly fat," says Kerry Stewart, Ed.D., professor of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and director of clinical and research exercise physiology.
Stewart is the senior author of the study, which will be presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions on November 6, 2012 by lead author Soohyun Nam, Ph.D., who is now at the Yale University School of Nursing. Her presentation is titled Predictors of Sleep Quality Improvement Among Overweight or Obese Individuals: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
For the six-month study, the researchers enrolled 77 people who had type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes. The participants, all of whom also were overweight or obese, were randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group went on a weight-loss diet and had supervised exercise training, while the other group only had the diet intervention. A total of 55 participants completed all phases of the study.
The participants filled out the Hopkins Sleep Survey at the beginning and end of the study to identify sleep problems, including sleep apnea, daytime fatigue, insomnia, restless sleep, excessive sleep or sleepiness and use of sedatives to aid sleep. Their body mass index and amount of abdominal fat were also measured at the start and end of the study.
Both groups -- those assigned to a weight loss diet plus supervised exercise and those who only went on a diet -- lost about 15 pounds, on average. They also lost about the same amount of belly fat, about 15 percent, which was assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Although a variety of sleep problems were reported by the participants, none stood out as being the most common, so the researchers analyzed a composite score, which reflects overall sleep health. What they found was that both groups improved their overall sleep score by about 20 percent with no differences between the groups.
"The key ingredient for improved sleep quality from our study was a reduction in overall body fat, and, in particular belly fat, which was true no matter the age or gender of the participants or whether the weight loss came from diet alone or diet plus exercise," says Stewart.
Good sleep quality is important in general for good physical and mental health, as well as for a healthy cardiovascular system, notes Stewart. Depending on the cause, chronic sleep disruptions increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke and irregular heartbeats. Obesity increases the risk of sleep problems.
The study was funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, grant number R01HL092280 and the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, grant number UL1 RR 025005.

Diabetes: Weight loss' effect is thrown into question
Posted: November 7, 2012 at 9:41 pm
People with type 2 diabetes often are encouraged to lose weight to improve their health, but a puzzling new study may have some questioning that advice.
A recent study showed that obese people with diabetes who lost a modest amount of weight didn't lower their risk of having a heart attack or stroke, but the weight loss did help improve many other health factors.
"While we did not show a benefit of modest weight loss for cardiovascular events, we did show the benefits of weight loss for improving depression, quality of life, sleep apnea, incontinence, fitness, physical function and blood sugar control," says Rena Wing, a professor of psychiatry and human behavior at Brown University and chairman of the Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) study. The research was financed by the National Institutes of Health.
In diabetes ?? a disease spotlighted in November during American Diabetes Month ?? the body does not make enough of the hormone insulin, or it doesn't use it properly. Insulin helps glucose (sugar) get into cells, where it is used for energy. If there's an insulin problem, sugar builds up in the blood, damaging nerves and blood vessels. There are two major forms: type 1 and type 2, which accounts for 90% to 95% of diabetes.
Diabetes can lead to heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, foot and leg amputations and blindness. Almost 26 million children and adults (8.3% of the population) in the United States have diabetes.
For the study, researchers at 16 centers around the country worked with 5,145 obese people with type 2 diabetes. Their average starting weight was about 200 pounds. The study was designed to see whether weight loss reduced the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Half of the participants were assigned to an intensive diet and exercise program. They attended individual and group meetings where they were taught strategies for weight loss by cutting calories and increasing physical activity. They used some meal replacements during the weight-loss and maintenance phases of the program.
The other half received a general program of diabetes education several times a year. All participants continued to follow the medical advice of their physician.
Findings: Those in the diet group lost about 8% of their starting weight (about 16 pounds) in the first year and maintained nearly 5% (about 10 pounds) of that loss. Participants in the diabetes education group lost about 1% (2 pounds) of their starting weight and kept it off. Everyone was tracked for up to 11 years.
After four years, the findings showed that those in the diet-and-exercise group improved their hemoglobin A1C readings (which looks at a person's average blood sugar levels for the past three months), fitness, systolic (top number) blood pressure and HDL (good) cholesterol more than those in the diabetes education group. The diet-and-exercise group also required less medication to control the diabetes, Wing says.
