WHOLEGRAIN | HIGH FIBRE | LOW GI DIET | HERBALIFE

Marieta — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 11:00:37 +0000

In a world of refined sugars and carbohydrate, the harder (yet better) choice to make is towards wholegrain foods. These foods can reduce your risk of developing high blood pressure (according to a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition). This study was done over an extended period of 18 years, and followed 32 000 subjects. The results of the study was that those individuals who ate the most whole grains (about 46g per day) were 19% less likely to be diagnosed with hypertension than those who ate least (about 3g per day).

Wholegrain contains potassium and fibre, both important products in the regulation of your blood pressure. The higher the fibre content of the product, it also makes it lower on the glyceamic index. Therefore, the food will provide you with more sustainable energy and help keep your blood pressure more stable.

Choose wholegrain foods as far as possible. The best way to ensure you do this is to re-stock your cupboards with items that is higher in fibre-content, i.e.:
-Check the cereal box to ensure it is wholegrain
-When buying bread, opt for wholegrain and seedbreads
-Purchase wholegrain pasta and couscous
-Brown rice is a better option than white rice

The Herbalife Fibre & Herb tablets and Lipobond tablets offer you additional sources of fibre through supplementing. Combine your Fibre & Herb tablets with Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix for weight control purposes.

For those of you already on the Herbalife weight loss program, include a slice of toasted (unbuttered) wholegrain bread to your Herbalife healthy breakfast to meet your fibre needs early in the day.

The Herbalife product range also includes further supplement for heart health, namely the Herbalifeline and Niteworks products.

HEART HEALTH | HERBALIFE SUPPLEMENT | WEIGHT LOSS

Our arteries, veins and capillaries perform the very important function in your body on conveying nutrient rich blood to nourish the cells and organs in your body. But when they are blocked they can result in strokes, heart attacks which are some of the major causes of death.

Obesity is a major risk for heart disease. Therefore, even if it was only for your heart health that you lose extra weight, that would be a good enough reason to slim down. The Herbalife range of products can help you to lose weight with a nutritionally balanced and convenient weight loss programme. With no calorie counting or hours in front of the stove preparing food. With two quick meal replacements a day, you are set to go.

There are also some further lifestyle changes that you can make to support your heart health. It is important to eat enough protein in order for your lean muscle mass to stay strong. “Good’ fats, such as Omega 3 and 6 oil are also important for heart health. Fish is a good source of Omega 3 oil. You can also supplement your diet with Herbalifeline, a supplement that will fulfil your Omega oil requirements.

Also ensure that you consume plenty of colourful foods in the form of fruits and vegetables. A great way to choose your fruits and vegetables is to look at the colour. In general, the deeper the colour of the food, the more nutrient rich it is.

NUTRITION TIPS | HEALTHY MEAL | HERBALIFE

Marieta — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 08:14:13 +0000

When you are following the Herbalife weight loss eating plan, you would be replacing two meals with a delicious Herbalife diet shake, with your third meal being a healthy, colourful meal. Often I get asked the question: “What do you mean by a colourful diet?”

This groundbreaking advice comes from the writing of Dr Heber, the science and nutrition expert on the Herbalife panel of experts. In his book, “What color is your diet?” he provides helpful tips on ensuring that you get the best possible nutrition. (We are off course very proud to have him constantly working on the improvements and advisory development of Herbalife products!)

His advice is: “Colorize your diet.” This advice comes from the study of a vast spectrum of fruits and vegetables that are all from different colour groups. It again emphasizes how important it is to eat a vast spectrum of colourful fruits and vegetables for their health promoting properties.

This is not a difficult task, especially in South Africa where we have the most beautiful seasonal fruits and vegetables. Almost all fruits and vegetables are naturally low in fat, contains high amounts of fibre and contains natural chemicals that can help protect your body from cancer, heart disease, age related eye problems and muscular degeneration. Apart from the health benefits, there is off course the other sensory benefit of all the colours on your plate!

Try to add as many plant based colours into your diet as possible. In most cases, the skins are the most colourful and the rich source of protective phytonutrients. Therefore, avoid peeling fruits like apples, eggplant and peaches.

When preparing your Herbalife shake, you can use fruit juice and also mix in your choice of fruits and vegetables to make a delicious smoothie. Berries are a great antioxidant and very low in fat, giving you a glorious purple shake.

Cholesterol is a substance found in the blood and cells of our bodies; it’s used for digesting fats and producing cell membranes and hormones. It’s important to maintain healthy levels as a high level of cholesterol in the blood is a major risk factor for coronary disease.
