Coconut Water

Coconut water improves #metabolism and burns fat at a faster rate. Thus, it helps reduce weight. It prevents the formation of kidney stones by alkalizing the urine. It treats kidney stones as well. It keeps the skin healthy and glowing and prevents muscle cramps.

The water treatment method

Did You Know…that drinking water in the morning immediately upon waking up can have amazing therapeutic effects for a multitude of health conditions—ranging from pain to #asthma to #cancer?”

The water treatment method is as follows:

•    Right after waking up in the morning, drink about 4 glasses of fluoride-free water. If you’re drinking water from a faucet, chances are it’s inevitable. Other options are distilled water (make sure to add minerals back into the water, including some baking soda for alkalinity) and reverse osmosis. If you feel you can’t drink a whole 4 glasses in the morning, start lower and work your way up to the 4 glasses. You must do this upon waking and on an ‘empty stomach.’

Do not eat or drinking for 45 minutes after drinking the water. After 45 minutes has gone by, you’re free to eat and drink as you please.

•    Drink a cup of water half an hour before the meal. Do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours after each meal.
•    Feel your health start to improve.

According to the Japanese Medical Society, this treatment would take 10 days to treat constipation, 10 days to treat some gastric issues, and 30 days to treat high blood pressure.

Can I trust nutrition information I get from newspapers and magazines?

Nutrition tips and diets from different sources often conflict with each other. You should always check with your doctor first. Also, keep in mind this advice:

•    There is no "magic bullet" when it comes to nutrition. Short-term diets may help you lose weight, but they are hard to keep up and may even be unhealthy in the long run.

•    Good nutrition doesn't come in a vitamin pill. Only take a vitamin with your doctor's recommendation, as your body benefits the most from eating healthy, whole foods.

•    Eating a variety of foods is best for your body, so try new foods!

•    Stories from people who have used a diet program or product, especially in commercials and infomercials, are advertisements. These people are usually paid to endorse what the advertisement is selling. Remember, regained weight or other problems that develop after someone has completed the program are never talked about in those ads.

Tips for cutting down on sugar

•    Slowly reduce the sugar in your diet a little at a time to give your taste buds time to adjust and wean yourself off the craving.

•    Avoid sugary drinks. Try drinking sparkling water with a splash of fruit juice instead.

•    Don’t replace saturated fat with sugar. Many of us make the mistake of replacing healthy sources of saturated fat, such as whole milk dairy, with refined carbs or sugary foods, thinking we’re making a healthier choice. Low-fat doesn’t necessarily mean healthy, especially when the fat has been replaced by added sugar to make up for loss of taste.

•    Avoid processed or packaged foods like canned soups, frozen dinners, or low-fat meals that often contain hidden sugar that quickly surpasses the recommended limit.

•    Be careful when eating out.  Most gravy, dressings and sauces are also packed with salt and sugar, so ask for it to be served on the side.

•    Eat healthier snacks.  Cut down on sweet snacks such as candy, chocolate, and cakes. Instead, eat naturally sweet food such as fruit, peppers, or natural peanut butter to satisfy your sweet tooth.

•    Check labels and choose low-sugar products.

Do I need to change what I eat?

If you answer yes to any of the following questions, you may need to talk about improving your nutrition with your doctor:

•    Has your doctor talked with you about a medical problem or a risk factor, such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol?

•    Did your doctor tell you that this condition could be improved by better nutrition?

•    Does diabetes, cancer, heart disease or osteoporosis run in your family?

•    Are you overweight?

•    Do you have questions about what kinds of foods you should eat or whether you should take vitamins?

•    Do you think that you would benefit from seeing a registered dietitian, a member of the health care team who specializes in nutrition counseling?
