If you are looking for Weight Management /
Weight Loss or Weight Gain Programs, without Starving or without Excercise, you
have come to the appropriate place.
Over weight or Obesity is the starting
point for Lifestyle Deceases like Diabetes, Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure,
Heart Attacks and many more to say. If you can control your Weight, you can
control all of them.
The main reason to all these is our Food
Habbits. We are continuing to have the food that is used to have by our
ancestors. They used to walk miles and miles to reach one place to another. They
used to work throughout the day in the fields and they used to have many
physical exercises hence there is a need for heavy food with full of
carbohydrates.
Now-a-days, we don't have any physical
exercises. We don't even walk till the street corner. For every thing we use
two/four wheelers to commute from one place to another even it is very near to
us. We use remote control, to change the channel of our Television.
The excess of corbohydrates, which we take
in the BreakFast, Lunch and Dinner. will be converted into fats, hence we get
tyres around our stomach. These accumulated fats will lead to Obesity.
The over-intake of Carbs will lead to all
the life style deseases like Diabetis, Cholesterol, Blood Pressure or
Heart-Attacks.
HERBALIFE
ShapeWorks® PROGRAM
Over the past 30 years, Herbalife
International has become the leading global
manufacturer of meal replacements for
healthy nutrition and weight management. The goal of weight management is to
achieve and maintain not only a healthy weight, but also a healthy shape. Shape
is critical to achieving the health goals of weight management, since shape
includes the concept of body-fat distribution, optimizing lean body mass and
getting into a proper level of fitness. Shape means both body shape and “getting
into shape,” and so provides a valuable tool for communicating the benefits of a
healthy diet and lifestyle, regardless of body weight.
It is not simply the weight of the body
that determines health, but the quality of
the body tissues in terms of lean versus
fat. Simply because an individual is overweight, normal weight, or underweight
is not neccessarily a gauge of his or her nutritional balance. Weight loss can
lead to loss of lean body mass, which occurs during unsupplemented starvation
and with hypocaloric diets that are deficient in protein.
A body of scientific research is
demonstrating that increased protein provided at
about one gram per pound of lean body mass
(29 percent of resting metabolic rate)
provides better control of hunger and
maintains lean body mass better than the usually recommended amount of protein,
which is about 15 percent of total calorie intake. In addition to research at
UCLA which forms the basis for the ShapeWorks®
program, recent studies in Australia and in Colorado
demonstrate that increased protein may be especially useful for promoting weight
loss in the pre-diabetic, insulin-resistant, obese
individual.
Many people take in too little protein and
lead a sedentary lifestyle, resulting
in loss of muscle and increase in fat or
sarcopenic obesity. Attempts at rapid weight loss by eating less of their
favorite foods results in deficiencies of multiple nutrients, which usually
includes protein. In this common condition, lean tissue is deficient and the
percentage of body fat is high (>30 percent), despite a normal Body Mass
Index (BMI). Similarly, weight lifters can be overweight with a high BMI but
have a normal body-fat percentage. Their increased weight is due to increased
muscle tissue, and they require increased protein based on their lean mass, both
to control hunger and maintain muscle.
The rate at which weight is lost is a
function of how much of a calorie deficit is
created from the calories required to
maintain current weight. For every 500 cal/day deficit created through calorie
restriction, increased physical activity or some combination of the two, there
will be a one-pound weight loss per week. Increased protein intake does not make
weight loss more rapid, but it does result in better maintenance of lean body
mass at the same rate of weight loss when compared to a lower protein intake.
Starvation is the extreme, in which about one pound of body protein is lost for
every four pounds of weight lost. With exercise and increased protein intake
during weight loss, it is possible to minimize the loss of lean body
mass.
Some thin women will gain weight when given
adequate protein, due to an
increase in muscle mass. They may not be
happy with this, and it is their choice to
remain at a lower muscle mass. However, in
order to keep their body-fat percentage in a healthy range, these women will
need to burn calories daily with aerobic exercise and carefully watch their food
intake to minimize total calorie intake. Their lower muscle mass means that they
will need fewer calories to maintain their tiny shape.
