CONTROLING DIABETES

WHAT IS DIABETES? WHY DO WE NEED TO CUT DOWN OUR SUGAR INTAKE?

As we know, millions of citizens all over the world have tried to let go of their mouth-watering and tasty sugary products. People don’t have any option but to leave their in-taking of sweets because their health is at risk. That is why doctors tell diabetics to shun away from sugary foods to prevent unhelpful reactions. Insulin is a substance that breakdown our sugars into tiny particles to be able to maximize by our body to produce fuel and energy, so we can do our day to day activities. When glucose builds up in the bloodstream, the cells become starved for energy since they do not have access to the glucose and in short term and long term frequent glucose build-up speeds the acidity of the blood, hurting several of the body’s organs, such as the eyes and kidneys.

TYPES OF DIABETES

Gestational diabetes could occur in women who are the age 24 years old or older, but certain women have increased risks in developing gestational diabetes. Nerve damage can cause your hands and feet to hurt, tingle or feel numb. The two key types are the Type 1 diabetes and Type 2 diabetes. Type-1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes since it affects children. There are many types of diabetes and each one differs from each other. Finally,, the pancreas can weaken from working overtime to create more insulin and can no longer be able to create enough to keep a person’s blood sugar levels in a regular range.

DIABETES TREATMENT

You need to eat healthy when you are suffering from diabetes and sustain regular exercise routine. With correct treatment, people who have type 1 diabetes can expect to live longer and healthier lives. For type 2 diabetes, begin by eating healthy foods, and include physical activity in your every day routine and continue a healthy weight. Stay at a healthy weight and maintain a good body weight will help you keep your body going and have better energy levels.

ALTERNATIVE DIABETES CURES THROUGH THE HERBAL WAY

If diabetes is not treated, it could lead in complications like renal failure, impotence, hypoglycemia and a nervous breakdown. Once we struggle taking in sugar, diseases like diabetes may be at hand. Although this can mean future medications, there are other possible ways on how alternative diabetes cures could help you. Carbohydrates can be found in foods like pasta, rice, cereals, bread and potatoes. To name a few herbal cures, people who use bitter melon (ampalaya) or momordica charantia usually use these cures imported from the Orient. As we all know, it is still true that prevention is always better than cure. In order for the glucose to get through inside our cell, it needs the help of insulin (which is produced by the pancreas).

The Best Way To Fire Up Your Metabolism, Burn Fat Fast & Developing Lasting Health!

Ask several people what type of exercise they should be doing to burn fat and fire up their metabolism and they’ll all probably say the same thing.  They’ll tell you that you need to do 30-40 minutes of moderately-paced aerobic exercise on a treadmill, elliptical machine, stair climber, etc. For 3-5 times per week.

They’ll probably also mention that more is better 4 times per week would be better than 3, and 5 times per week would be even better.

People will tell you this because that’s been and continues to be the popular recommendation for fat burning by many fitness gurus.  Get in a certain target heart rate and stay at that heart rate for 30 minutes or so, many times per week.  I’m here to tell you there is a better way.

Sure, you’ll burn several calories while you’re running to nowhere on a treadmill, but you won’t get a complete physique transformation with this type of exercise alone.

In truth, this type of exercise can in fact be counterproductive to burning fat.  Here are just a few reasons:

Lengthy duration, lower intensity aerobics calls upon your stored body fat for energy during the sessions.  While this might sound good, this can in reality cause your body to create extra body fat in reserve after the workout is done to have ready for your next workout.  Not cool!
What’s worse, this type of exercise when completed frequently as typically suggested, trains your cardiovascular system to be efficient.  Again, while this sounds pleasant, your heart and lungs can in fact reduce their capacity for work as they are getting more efficient at doing simple work (your long duration, low intensity aerobic workouts), which reduces their capability to handle stress.

This can start to a host of other problems together with higher change of heart attack.  You are only working inside your current aerobic capacity since you’re never challenging it to go beyond what it’s capable of.   And anything that is simple will not yield results even close to what’s challenging for the body to accomplish.

Instead, you ought to be challenging the body to strengthen its capacity, so that it is stronger and able to deal with stress more easily.  How is this done?

The quickest and most efficient way to rev up your metabolism, burn fat faster, and develop lifelong health and fitness is to add lean muscle to your body through resistance training – period. You want life changing results in the quickest possible time? Get stronger and build some muscle. When you add lean muscle to your body you’ll be literally turning your body into a fat burning machine!

Let’s say that you were consuming the amount of calories that allow you to maintain your current bodyweight, but began to add lean muscle to your body through proper resistance training you’ll need to use some of those calories you’re eating to feed the new muscle, creating a calorie deficit in your body.

In addition, when you stimulate your body with proper resistance training like I teach my students, the repair and growth process will call upon your stored body fat for energy.  This calorie deficit combined with the repair and growth process will allow you to burn fat all day long, every day.  You’ll even get these fat burning effects when you’re sitting around doing nothing at all.

Also, properly conducted resistance training actually increases your heart and lung’s capacity for work.  By placing intense demands on your body, it is forced into being ready for anything you throw at it.  This makes you more resistant to cardiovascular health problems that plague most people…Even those that exercise with aerobics frequently.

And the beauty is I’ve discovered that you don’t have to spend much time working out to get the fat loss effects, and strength and muscle gains that will create this environment you can actually get it done with 2 or 3 weekly workouts that last between 20 and 30 minutes, and even less time at an advanced level.

And it’s easy to make this type of exercise part of your life because of its efficiency and it will help keep you lean and healthy for the rest of it…Muscle is the stuff that fat burning furnaces are made of!  That I can promise you.

Do You Really Need “Cardio” Workouts?

In this article, I have an intriguing discussion about cardio workouts, which will hopefully get you thinking differently, and trying new things.

You may know I’ve been called the anti-cardio guy before, but this week I’m back posing the question to you… Do you really need cardio training to get lean and in great shape? By the way, you’ll see in a minute that I’m not really “anti-cardio”, just “anti traditional cardio”.

Most fitness buffs, weekend warriors, or anyone trying to get in shape or lose body fat, consider it a fact that they need “cardio” exercise to accomplish these goals. They would never even question it.

However, I’m not only questioning it, I’m going to refute it! In fact, you may be surprised to know that some of the leanest and meanest people I know (men and women), NEVER do any type of normal or traditional cardio. And I’ve spent over 15 years working out in various gyms, and hanging out with athletes of all sorts, so I’ve seen it all.

I will say that there can be a place for low-moderate level cardio for really overweight or deconditioned people, but even in those cases, there can be more effective methods.

But what exactly is “cardio”?

Most people would consider cardio to be pumping away mindlessly on a treadmill, riding a stationary bike, or coasting on an elliptical machine, while watching the TV screen at their state of the art gym. This is what I call “traditional cardio”. Hmmm, no wonder the majority of people get bored with their workouts and give up after a couple months without seeing results.

But if you look closer, “cardio” exercise can be considered any type of exercise or activity that strengthens the cardiovascular system. I’m not going to get into anything technical like increasing your VO2 max or anything like that. To keep it simple, if it gets your heart pumpin, and gets you huffin and puffin, it’s cardio. I don’t care if you’re holding dumbbells or a barbell and everyone calls it a weight training exercise…it’s still conditioning your heart.

Let’s take a look at a couple examples. Take a barbell (or dumbbell, or kettlebell) clean & press for example, which involves lifting a barbell from the floor up to shoulders, then push pressing overhead. And listen up ladies, because even though this is usually seen as a manly exercise, it doesn’t matter if you’re not lifting 250 lbs; if 45 lbs is challenging to you, then you will still benefit just as much.

At first glance, most people think of the barbell C&P only as a weight training exercise or strength exercise. However, I challenge you to do a hard set of around 10-15 reps on the C&P. If you used a challenging enough weight, what you’ll find is that your heart rate is probably up to about 80-90% of your recommended max, and you are huffing and puffing like you just ran a 100-meter sprint (which by the way, sprinting kicks the crap out of jogging any day if you want the easiest way to lose the flab).

Try the same thing for a set of 20 reps of one-arm snatches or swings with each arm with a kettlebell or dumbbell, and tell me your legs aren’t burning, heart racing, and you’re gasping for breath. How about trying 5 minutes straight of bodyweight squats, lunges, and pushups with very little rest. Again, notice your heart pounding, sweat pouring off of you, and chest heaving for breaths!

Try and tell me you’re not conditioning your heart with this style of training! Conventional thinking says that these are weight training or strength training exercises. However, they are fullfilling your cardio workout needs as well (saving you time!).

Not only do you save time, but you strengthen and condition almost every muscle in your entire body with these full body exercises if you do them with enough intensity…something that can’t be said for that boring stationary bike ride or treadmill jaunt while reading or watching TV.

Reading or watching TV while you workout is a joke!

Seriously, if you can read or watch TV while doing any exercise, you’re not concentrating enough on what you’re doing, plus you’re probably not working out hard enough to see any real results.

TRUTH ABOUT ABS

How To Triple Your Fat Burning Workout Results

Do you want to know how to triple your results from your resistance training? Why
wouldn’t you?

Properly conducted resistance training can give you startling fat loss results, along with muscle and strength gains.  On top of that, when using the techniques I describe in the Fat Burning Furnace eBook, you’ll also receive “top drawer” cardiovascular health benefits.  And all from 2-3  workouts each week lasting just 15-20 minutes on average.

But, you’ve got to do them right, not like the average resistance trainer is taught these days.  Walk into any fitness center or gym and you’ll see at least half if not more of the exercisers performing their workouts in a less than optimal way…and that’s being kind.

So let’s get right to one of the ways you can triple your resistance training results immediately.  It has to do with how you specifically perform the repetitions.  To better understand this, let’s examine our 3 different strength levels in any resistance exercise.

Take the dumbbell curl exercise for the biceps for example.  In this movement, you begin with the weight down at your sides. You proceed to smoothly and slowly curl the dumbbells up to your shoulders.  This movement trains your positive strength level. You should then pause briefly and contract your biceps at the top of the movement.  This trains your static strength level.

Finally, you would want to lower the dumbbells slowly back to the starting position.  This trains your negative strength level.

Now the problem is that most people don’t even bother with the static or negative strength levels.  They put all of the focus on the “lifting” or positive portion of the movement, while not pausing or contracting sufficiently at the top, and not taking nearly enough time on the negative portion.

In effect they are getting only one third of the benefits that this exercise can give them.  Actually, it’s less than that because the static and negative portions can actually create deeper inroads into your existing strength levels.  This is something you want, as it will lead to greater progress faster assuming you give your body appropriate time to recover.

Why do we care so much about strength?  Outside of the obvious reasons, strength leads to muscle growth, which leads to a faster resting metabolism, which leads to faster fat loss and various other improved health factors that could take up another couple of pages at least .

In the Fat Burning Furnace eBook & Deluxe Program, I take these concepts to the next level.  Here we are using techniques to maximize your static and negative strength levels in order to push the limits of your lean and healthy genetic potential to the max.  That’s when the real fun begins.

So make sure not to neglect the static and negative strength levels when performing your next resistance training workout. Don’t waste the opportunity to triple your results!

Rest, Sleep, And Burn More Fat Fast

In order to reap the benefits from the intense exercise I recommend to my Fat Burning Furnace students, you must get adequate rest. I can’t stress this fact enough. In fact, rest is just as important, if not more important that the actual exercise.

During the high intensity resistance exercise that my students perform, the muscles experience tiny injuries or tears. The body’s response is to adapt and repair, getting stronger and larger muscles, which of course leads to burning more fat and a leaner body.

But this growth and repair process won’t take place if the body is not allowed the time to do its job. Too often, people rush back into the gym, as many have been inundated with the “more is better” axiom when it comes to exercise. But if we don’t get out of the body’s way and let it do its magic, we will experience poor results. We won’t burn fat like we want to, and we will just end up demotivated or possibly give up our efforts altogether.

If you don’t get enough rest or sleep, you’ll have a very difficult time building the fat-burning muscle that will transform your body. And you’ll also have a tough time burning fat off too! That’s why we can’t work out too long or too often when using a sufficient intensity level. When giving the body an intense stimulus, such as proper weight training, you can’t keep hammering it into the ground.

If you did this, you’d quickly over train your muscles and negate your body’s ability to recover from exercise. Your immune system could become so worn down in fact, that you might even get sick…this happened to me a few times in the past when I wasn’t paying attention to getting adequate rest and sleep.

And this repair and recover process doesn’t happen overnight, it usually takes 2 days or more, So make sure to keep between 1-3 days of rest between your properly conducted resistance training workouts, or you will be short-circuiting your chances of success to burn fat and build lean, strong, muscle.

Now that we know how important rest is to burning fat and building muscle, we also must understand the most important component of rest…otherwise know as sleep. Sleep is the ultimate recovery tool, and not only for recovery from exercise. It’s a recovery tool from any stress you take in throughout the day.

Whether it’s from family pressures, work issues, or finances, etc., increased stress can be dissolved by adequate sleep. And don’t think you can burn fat maximally when you’re over-stressed by other things in your life. A high stress level can shut down the effectiveness of your ability to burn fat, among other things.

So make sure to get adequate sleep. What’s ideal? I would recommend no less than seven or more than nine hours. In fact, seven and half hours per night might be the perfect amount!

Research has shown that we sleep in cycles of 90 minutes or so. It has been suggested that if we wake up too far before or after one of these 90 minute cycles, you will probably feel groggy for a good part of the day. So try the 5 90 minutes sleep cycles, or 7 and a half hours…you’ll most likely wake up feeling well-rested and energized, and your fat burning furnace will show it’s appreciation, allowing you to burn more fat faster.
