Confused by the New Food Pyramid Guidelines? Here’s the Skinny on How to Maintain a Healthy Weight
(ContentDesk) November 28, 2005 -- Youve probably heard the statistics. The average American gains one to two pound of fat a year. Obesity rates are soaring. And according to the Centers for Disease Control, adolescents and young adults are the most overweight in our nations history. The Old Food Pyramid fell short when it came to giving us guidance on how to maintain a healthy weight.
And lately theres been so much conflicting information that we dont know which advice to follow. The New Food Pyramid Emphasizes Making Gradual ChangesThe good news is after 13 years, the Food Pyramid is finally getting a makeover. The new guidelines emphasize the importance of controlling weight, which includes the importance of physical activity. One of the big changes is the recommendation to be physically active for at least 30 minutes most days of the week. Instead of emphasizing "complex carbohydrates," the new guidelines urge Americans to limit sugar intake while stressing the benefits of whole grains.
The New Food Pyramids stance on dietary fats makes a clear break from the past, when all fats were considered bad. The latest advice recommends getting up to a third of your daily calories from good fats like olive oil, flaxseed and fish oils.Small Changes Get Big ResultsOverall, the New Pyramid guidelines advise eating fewer calories and more fruits, vegetables and whole grains. They recommend drinking more lowfat milk, and eating less trans fats and salt.Try getting up 30 minutes earlier than you normally would so you can exercise. Research shows that people who do morning workouts have a better stick-with-it rate. One of the biggest challenges to maintaining a healthy weight is trying to control cravings for you favorite foods.
There are now natural products available which may help.
Hoodia, the natural appetite suppressant that can control cravings without stimulants, has justly received a lot of positive national press coverage. A combination natural product like In Control from WholesaleSupplementStore.com contains Hoodia gordonii extract plus the natural ingredient Glucomannan, which contributes to a feeling of fullness so important when trying to watch your weight.When you want to start an exercise routine but cant get motivated, consider getting a workout partner, or join a walking or running group. Its easier to stick with your new lifestyle when you can share your success with a partner.By emphasizing gradual improvement, and the need for a more individualized approach to improving diet and lifestyle, the New Food Pyramid can become an easy to follow guide when youre looking to lose weight, maintain your weight, and stay healthy.WholesaleSupplementStore.comBrand name supplements at wholesale prices.http://www.wholesalesupplementstore.com.

How Hoodia Works
Copyright 2006 Alvin Toh
Hoodia has been used by the San people of Southern Africa as an appetite suppressant and cure for indigestion for ages. The San have used Hoodia for centuries to combat hunger on long trips in the desert.
Hoodia is a cactus, and the San would cut a piece of the plant and eat it fresh.
Hoodia is native to a narrow region of Namibia, on the edge of the Kalahari Desert.
Hoodia acts as an appetite suppressant. Appetite suppressants are drugs that reduce the desire to eat.
They can be used in the treatment of obesity.
Some appetite suppressants are only available with a prescription, while others are available over the counter.
They contain a variety of active ingredients, and work in different ways. The majority of appetite suppressants are stimulants.

Is there Any Hoodia in that Hoodia Weight Loss Product?
Copyright 2006 Richard Keir
Gotten any email spam lately with a 'warning' about buying fake Hoodia products or Hoodia products with a variety of fillers?
Of course, they assure you that THEIR product is 'the original product.'
It may be the original product, whatever that might mean, but the chances of it containing Hoodia are pretty close to zero.
Or maybe you're getting the spam about Hoodia 92--, whatever, or one about getting into skinny jeans or having men chase you, or the brickwall last 18 pounds spam with the large "disc0unts".
Obviously the spammers see this as a potentially lucrative market. If any of the spam tempts you, you really need to be aware of a few things about Hoodia.
The whole diet area is scam heaven for unscrupulous, dishonest con artists selling products that do nothing and cost a lot.
The few legitimate ones can be nearly impossible to identify among the fakes.
