Fat Metabolism and the waist line

With summer right around the corner and spring break behind us it's time to get serious about the extra cells around the waist line. Besides summer we have to be aware of the increased risk of heart disease with extra weight around the heart. There are several methods and foods that can be consumed and avoided to help our progress. We know that a diet rich in whole grains, plant beased proteins and fat metabolising fruits and veggies can be a big and enjoyable help. There is also a lot of buzz going around about the HCG Diet and supplement. I have seen rapid results with this and we have the product for under $40. For those of you not too keen on the restrictions to the diet and or the use of hormones to facilitate weight loss, here is another option. Fat is utilized for energy when we consume the right kinds and amounts. When we work out if we maintain an aerobic heartrate and are not breathless then we are burning fat :) If we become breathless we are burning glucose (simple enough?). I am currently using a product called Fat Metabolism Factors (FMF )by Michael's Naturopathic Formulas and love how it has helped me spur my burning forward. FMF has a blend of herbs and amino acids specific to lipid metabolism and emulsification. If you have a sluggish liver or gall bladder, have high cholesterol or have some extra weight around the mid section, you have choices! Enjoy yourself a grapefruit or some lemon in your water! Enjoy a brisk walk or slow jog around your block! After your Aerobic cardio do some strength training to firm up and build muscle that will burn fat while you rest :) Definitely come by Clear Conscience Natural Market and we can help you out!
