Top products are eaten, grow thin

Top products are eaten, grow thin.
There are three categories of products, which the body to digest spending more energy than one receives.

We always think about what is there to eat to lose weight. But these products do exist. About them told us dietitian Alex Kovalkov:
- There are three categories of products that contribute to weight loss. This is not a miracle supplements and conventional foods, which now is the time to market. But in stores can be found throughout the year.

1. Products with tartan acid.
It sprouts (fresh and pickled), eggplants, cucumbers, apples, quince.
Tartan acid slows down the processing of carbohydrates that we obtain from food, so the body has to double or even triple their recycling efforts. But only - tartan acid is destroyed when heated. So there are these fruits and vegetables are best raw.

2. Products that block the secretion of insulin   and promoting effective lipolysis.
This cinnamon, grapefruit, green apples.
Only one teaspoon cinnamon a day (for example, tea) helps the processing of glucose into glycogen. In fact it reduces blood sugar and does not allow the transformation of excess carbohydrates in the fat. She also helps to reduce the level of "harmful" cholesterol and blood pressure in diabetic type 2.
Grapefruit contains flavonoid naringin. This substance helps normalize lipid metabolism. It activates the liver, has a mild choleretic effect. One problem: narigin it contains the most bitter part of the grapefruit - pereponochka between slices. Of course, in the flesh has a lot of useful information, but if you want to lose weight effectively, it is necessary to take the bitterness greypfuta. After all, only two or three cloves a day will help you to become beautiful.
The green apple is, pyruvic acid, which activates the degradation and disposal of fats. And the body turns into a valuable amino acids - alanine. Alanine is transformed into glucose, increasing to normal blood sugar levels.

3. Products that increase thermogenesis   (body temperature increase and accelerate the flow of energy).
These include, for example, red hot pepper . It contains capsaicin. According to some scholars this substance helps burn fat cells at the molecular level.

The most important trousers spring-summer 2011

Summer is the trouser. Write about this all the magazines and websites, posters and shouting zamanivayusche whispering windows. Personally, I am particularly impressed by the return to fashion of wide straight pants and flared jeans: in the right hands and on the right foot is the real weapon of mass destruction (affected people will be in a good way, of course).

However, it is these trousers is a property of converting is not quite the right foot in quite correct, as wide and straight pants, the so-called "a la Marlene Dietrich", required to wear with the shoes with heels and thick soles, and so that the leg closed shoes completely. From such a straightforward focus legs look longer and hip - slimmer. If the hip and so slender, and legs - long, buy wide pants   exactly measure the growth and wearing ballet flats with: easy and convenient.

Wide pants , However, can be very broad, reviving the memory popular in the late '80s skirt-pants. In this case, they sew from thin fabric (satin, chiffon) prints with or without: a great option for holiday on the seafront promenade, or an evening cocktail in the open air.

If you need a practical option, the choice is stopped on short slacks -kapri, to mid-calf or just above the ankles. They are usually worn with ballet flats or sandals on a flat sole. Great for the legs are not perfectly straight - conceal everything right, unlike breeches, and the summer is not hot. However, women with massive thighs, short legs and a little sorry, drooping buttocks these pants can visually harm.

For women with expressive forms and apparent good narrower waisted trousers, which will also be wearing this season. Their youth and informal option - tucked at the ankles cotton pants-chinos, as a rule, natural colored or khaki. There are many among the masses-marketnyh brands like Gap, H & M, Uniqlo.

And it turned out that they at every meal consumed at 75-90 calories less than the others. As a result, all subjects were thinner, but in those who drank water after 12 weeks, the mean reduction of body weight was more than seven kilograms. For those who did not drink, it was less than five.

But if the fair sex are switched from bread to pasta, the threat of deadly disease, in contrast, is markedly reduced. The study also found that being overweight in combination with the use of bread at any age increases the risk of breast cancer by almost half.

These findings led the researchers analyzing data on more than 11 thousands of Italians of all ages. About 4 500 of them had breast cancer or colon and rectum, and 6700 women were healthy and participated in the study for comparison. Observations have shown that the risk of developing the disease rises or falls depending on whether women consumed bread or pasta.

For the victims of cancer of the colon and rectum an active consumption of bread increased the risk of developing the disease in half. But men grain diet increases the risk of these cancers by 22%.

In psoriasis, beware of stroke

As found by Danish scientists, victims of psoriasis is almost three times greater risk of becoming victims of stroke and heart disease. And particularly at risk younger patients.

According to a study published in the journal European Heart Journal, psoriasis   significantly increases the risk of   heart disease . Danish researchers made this conclusion based on observations of patients with 36,765 psoriasis   in moderate form, and 2793 patients with psoriasis severe. Observations lasted from 1997 to 2006.

Patients 50 years with moderate shape psoriasis   the risk of cardiac arrhythmias grew by 50% and the risk of ischemic stroke   altogether grew by 97%. But much more frightening figures seem to be for people with severe   psoriasis . In their case, the risk of arrhythmia increases by as much as 198% (!), And the risk of stroke by 180%. Thus, in this age group can be attributed exactly psoriasis risk factors heart disease .

In patients older than 50 years of psoriasis for some reason did not increase the risk of   ischemic stroke   or arrhythmia. The exact cause of this connection, the doctors do not know. Although phenomenal 198% of the risk lead to the assumption that this is psoriasis can cause arrhythmia, and becomes an indirect cause of stroke is no scientific evidence to support this version of the scientists had been received. But now the importance of treatment of psoriasis at a young age is more than obvious. So do not pay attention to the red otmetinki on the skin can not, even if they do not cause you much concern.
