Years ago, we have been taught that high blood pressure, high
cholesterol and high blood sugar are three common metabolism
diseases. Lately the medical progress believes that we should put
over weight into the same category. It has become the fourth common
metabolism problem. The standard of abnormally gaining weight is to
gain more than 5 lb in a short period constantly. Many patients had
weight loss treatment in this office, how to keep your weight, so
keep your health?
1.Eat frequent small meals.
You can eat 5 to 6 meals a day instead of 3. The total
food per day should be no more than 80% of your original intake.
-
For example, breakfast: one hard boiled egg and 1
cup of coffee; in 3 hours, you may be hungry, eat a piece of
chicken breast or an apple?
-
Lunch hour, have a small lunch or have snack
throughout the afternoon (skip lunch)
-
Dinner, you can eat with family and have your
regular meal but smaller portions.
?First meal should not be later then a half hour after you get up,
this is to trigger your metabolism to start to work.
?Eat something before you go home from work, around 5 pm, this is to
ensure you are not super hungry and over eat at dinner.
?Keep whatever diet that works for you, or even if it didn't work
before, it may work after your acupuncture weight loss treatment.
2.One day a month fast is linked to drop
in heart-disease risk
If you can do it, make one day a month "Tomato Fast",
this will be beneficial to your body. A new article from The
Philadelphia Inquire, Mon. November 19, 2007 wrote, people who
routinely skip a couple of meals in a row may be doing their heart a
favor. Researchers from Intermountain Medical Center in Utah made a
survey of 55 patients who underwent a coronary imaging study called
angiography found that those who regularly and purposely abstained
from food and drink for two meals were 39 percent less likely to be
diagnosed with heart disease. The study presented this month at an
American Heart Association meeting, speculates that fasting may
improve the body's ability to metabolize glucose

3. Repeat acupuncture weight loss
treatment in several years
Weight loss is a life long process, if this has been helping
you initially, it will help in the future. The treatment is to
strengthen the body and make it enable to burn the fat and eliminate
the waste. It is the same way that we treat patients who suffer from
metabolism disorders. It takes smaller sequence than initial
treatment. We treated many patients with the repeated weight loss
treatment in 2007, they were happy with the results after the 5 to 6
repeated weight treatments.
