"I pick up weight when I eat a slice of bread."
"I eat so little and yet I cannot lose the extra kilos", or "I never had weight problems and the past year my weight is like a yo-yo -more up than down."
Sometimes it is not only about what goes in, but also about what is not going out. If the colon does not eliminate daily, toxins are recirculated. Candida yeasts, parasites and other microbes flourish in the intestines, causing "dysbiosis" and contributing to cravings for sweets, starch and beer - all the fattening foods.
For persistent constipation, magnesium citrate mixed with ground flaxseeds helps with elimination, and a good colonic cleanse is advised under supervision of a qualified person. An anti-yeast and parasitic detox not only helps to sort out chronic health problems, but the bonus is permanent loss of those few kilos if a healthy diet is commenced.
The natural flora that coat the intestines play a role in pre-digestion of carbohydrates, fats and protein. In other words, if these are broken down into smaller particles we take stress off the digestive system and more enzymes are available to enhance our metabolism. Seek herbal combinations that also remove eggs of parasites so that cravings for sweets and junk food do not come back again.
Sugar regulation and support of digestive enzymes is a great help to lose weight and deal with unnecessary cravings for sweet things and starch. Have more but smaller meals, in the correct combination. Supplements are available that contain chromium and digestive enzymes.
A healthy option for quickly losing a few kilos is a juice fast, using fresh juice extracts. But remember that a fast slows down your metabolism and should not be done too regularly.
