Dear Friend ,

Sit ups alone would not help you take away that pot belly;

Can you count the number of friends of yours who have indulged in sit ups to ''cure '' that belly fat ?

Absolutely , they have not succeeded, i will show you what will

The abysmal level of activity in this generation is not encouraging





There’s no getting around the fact that in order to lose weight safely and permanently , you need to eat healthy food and get plenty of exercise.

Exercising burns calories and builds muscle, which is essential for increasing your metabolism so that you can burn even more calories and lose more weight.

Which exercises can you do taking into consideration your busy schedule and a co-existing health condition

What is your Maintenance Caloric value?

This is the amount of calories you require to maintain your weight at the present value it is now

How to Calculate Your Calorie Maintenance Level

In case it’s not obvious enough, calorie maintenance levels are different for everyone because we all have different daily calorie requirements. It’s not like everyone with a certain goal or body type has the same maintenance level or anything like that.

Instead, your calorie maintenance level is dependent on many factors that are specific to you and your exact situation.

These factors include:
Gender
Height
Weight
Age
Activity level
Metabolic Rate
Thermic Effect Of Food
Non-Exercise Activity Thermo genesis (NEAT)

Maintenance level is tailored to you and you alone. Even if you are the same age, height and weight
As you can see, your specific calorie as someone and have the exact same activity level and goals as they do, you can both still have very different calorie maintenance levels and daily calorie requirements in general.

Luckily though, there are a few quick and easy ways to get an accurate estimate of what your daily calorie maintenance level is.

Here are my favorite methods…

Method #1: Body Weight (lbs) x 14-17 = Estimated Daily Calorie Maintenance Level

Just take your current body weight in pounds and multiply it by 14 and 17. (we calculate in pounds and not in kilograms because the developers of the formula are whites and not Nigerians ; a challenge for us ; smiles; don’t mind me )

(To convert your weight from kilograms to pounds; multiply by 2.2)

Somewhere in between those 2 amounts will usually be your daily calorie maintenance level.

You can equally use this method: multiply your weight (in pounds) by 12 if you have a sedentary lifestyle, 14 if you are moderately active (you work out 3-4 times/week), or 16 if you are very active (5-7 times/week).

For example, a 180lb person would do 180 x 14 and 180 x 17 and get an estimated daily calorie maintenance level of somewhere between 2520-3060 calories.

People who are female, older, and less active or feel they have a “slow metabolism” should probably stick more towards the lower end of their estimate. People who are male, younger, more active, or feel they have a “fast metabolism” should probably stick more towards the higher end of their estimate.( all for the first formula )

If you’re unsure, just pick a number somewhere in the middle.
Crude way of calculating your Caloric Maintenance

Basically, eat the same amount of calories each day for a couple of weeks and monitor what your weight does.
If it stays the same, you’ve found your exact maintenance level.
If it goes up or down, then just adjust your calorie intake in small increments, wait another couple of weeks, and see what your weight does then.
When it stays the same, you’ll know for sure that you’ve found your exact daily calorie maintenance level.

How to Calculate your Caloric deficit

Now that you know your maintenance calories, it’s time to figure out how much calories you need to consume in order to lose fat.
The Only way to lose fat is to be in a calorie deficit, meaning that you’re expending more calories than you consume.

It’s pretty easy to figure this out.A good starting point would be to subtract 300-500 calories from your daily maintenance.

You can equally calculate thus: (if you love calculations) 20% of your maintenance calorie values… subtract the value you get from the maintenance value.

This gives you the maximum amount of calories you should consume in order for you to lose fat.

Why isn’t it an absolute number?

Hello weight loss friend,
This article is in response to a question on how one can calculate his caloric deficit
What do we mean by Caloric deficit?
In simple terms, that is the amount of calories, you would need to take in to allow for a weight loss
Given that weight gain occurs when you have excess calories stored away at different areas of the body.
Kindly see an explanation for the meaning of calories at the footnote of this article
To get the amount of calories you need to take in to make for a weight loss, you must do one thing first; that is calculate your maintenance caloric value

P.S Calories are an objective measure of the energy content of food substances

Dear weight loss friend,
Our bodies metabolize food as energy and excess energy is stored as fat. White fat cells store energy and brown fat cells serve as thermogenetic (heat producing) machinery to burn stored fat.

What is Capsaicin?

Have you ever heard of the word
"Capsaicin"?
That is the component of chili pepper that makes it that "hot"
Let me use our own version of pepper that is ""around""
I am simply referring to cameroun pepper  :
Capsaicin has been proven to. Be an effective weight loss component

See this research

In a study, the researchers from the University of Wyominfed fed wild mice a diet that was high in fat. They discovered that the addition of capsaicin acted chemically on a type of channel protein known as transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), which is found in the cell’s membranes.
 
They believe that the capsaicin induced the “browning” of white fat cells, which stimulates the fat-burning process to counteract obesity.
They also found that the fat-burning reaction occurred regardless of the amount of food or water that the mice consumed.

THE FAT BURNING PROPERTIES OF PINEAPPLE
Pineapple is said to have a lot of health benefits. Dieticians also approve it as an alternative to sugar-filled snacks.
Although many claim that pineapple help reduce fat, no substantial evidence has been derived from the studies.
The Fat Burning Properties of Pineapple
Reduces Appetite
Pineapple contains an enzyme called Bromelain which works with other enzymes and reduces one's appetite
Pineapple has anorectic properties, which means consuming one slice after a meal will eliminate subsequent hunger pangs.
You can use it to eliminate hunger pangs that come from the mind when you start cutting down on calories at once.
Calorie Burning
Pineapple is rich in vitamins and fiber. This fills the stomach with fiber, so more calories are expended trying to digest the food than the amount added while eating it. This means you are burning calories.
Flatter Belly
Bromelain enzyme in the fruit has anti inflammatory properties. It causes a reduction of stomach bloating. According to a study conducted by the University of Maryland,in the USA the enzyme reduces stomach bloating that leads to better digestive functioning and flatter waist.
What does this translate to?
Consuming pineapple gives one a flatter belly.
Makes you feel full
Pineapple has high water content. When substituted for other snacks, one tends to feel full due to more water,. Hence, there is lesser craving to eat and one automatically tends to eat less, thus contributing to weight loss.
Other benefits
Among the many health benefits of consuming pineapple are its positive effects on the skin, for digestion and immune system. It also normalizes sugar levels, therefore can be used as a snack by the diabetic. The Vitamin C in the fruit helps fight colds and flu. It is also packed with anti oxidants,

ECG is an acronym for Electrocardiogram ;
It is a test which looks at the electrical activity of the heart.
Electrodes are placed at different points of the body and

Malaria has always been and will be the commonest health challenge of the
tropics.malaria is caused by the protozoan parasite known as plasmodium.
Plasmodium undergoes some of its developmental stages in the mosquito

Mosquito nets, repellents, insecticides;all are measures to reduce the mosquito
exposure but all seem not to have curtailed mosquito bites.

Hi,everyone breastfeeding is a practice that has not changed with the advent of technology.For the normal mother breastfeeding still maintains its place as the foremost meal for the infant.
Recently there has been arguments as to the need for exclusive breastfeeding or the usual practice of supplementing with water.
The WHO[world health organisation]
recommends that infants be breastfed
exclusively for 6months before the introduction of supplemental feeds.
Why, you may ask,after all how can a normal human go without water for 6 months.
The reasons are varied:
Most other substances taken with breastmilk,after breastfeeding or before breastfeeding impede the absorption of iron which is contained in breastmilk and needed for the buliding of red blood cells for the infant.Red blood cells are essential components of blood.
Water, which most times is given to these infants, may be contaminated leading to the development of diarrheal diseases,which is among the greatest causes of infant mortality.
Breastmilk contains adequate antibodies to help the infant fight infections,and these would not need any interference from fluids administered by overzealous mothers.
My submission:
Exclusive breastfeeding involves administering breastmilk ONLY to the infant for the first 6 months of life.
cheers!!

this is a must read for all young men and women who are aspiring to be parents .if you have no such aspiration ,then you are reading the wrong article.
have you thought about it; the ratio of infertile couples to fertile couples is increasing everyday,why? something must be wrong.friends if you dont empower yourself with information on any thing in life ,you will continue to grope in the dark.i've discovered from my experience that the individuals who present for infertility checks are women;should that be the case?infertility checks are conducted on both parties since both pareties are required to contribute to procreation.
if you are a woman reading this article,ask yourself these questions;
how heavy has my menstrual flow been of late?
do i feel an unnsual movement in my lower abdominal area?
do i have milk coming out from my breast even though am not pregnant nor breastfeding?
how many times do i make love to my partner?
when last did i do an ultrasound scan?
