Side Effects Of The Atkins’ Diet – Tackling Intestinal Problems

admin — Thu, 30 Sep 2010 14:29:30 +0000

One of the things that people complain mostly is about problems related to the intestine, associated with the reduction of carbohydrates and can include problems like diarrhea and constipation. These can occur at any time to anybody and the people who are following a low carbohydrate diet have a higher chance of getting it.

Dieters always have diarrhea in the first few days of starting, because, while doing so, the body expels carbohydrates from our body and marks the starting of ketosis. Actually, having diarrhea in the first few days of training are good and are the indicator that shows that you are indeed on your way to be a machine that burns fat.

A side effect of the low carbohydrate diet is constipation which is because sources fro fiber like fruits, legumes and grains are all not allowed while in an Atkins diet.

You must not be afraid of the low carbohydrate diet because of this. There are solutions that are very simple which can prevent these symptoms and give you allowance for staying in the diet plan.

First, you must ensure that there are enough low carbohydrate vegetables in your food. During the first few days that is the induction phase, unto 20g of carbohydrates can be eaten per day, almost 3 salad vegetable cups. Many people prefer to use their limited allowances for carbohydrates in cheese and also artificially sweetened soda. Eating vegetables that are acceptable is a very important part in maintaining the health of the intestine. Also, about 8 8ounce glasses of water must be drunk daily and the body must be exercised. These steps can aid in reducing problems with the intestine.

If there is only constipation specifically, there are many ways in which it can be relieved. When you move from sugary treats and diets, your body takes a small amount of time to adjust to the low carbohydrate food that you will start to eat. Also, the intake of fiber like fruits and vegetables must be increased. Even sugar free Metamucil can be used as a supplement for fiber.

Also, you must eat a lot of oil and fats. If there is very little fat, you can end up having constipation. A tablespoon of oil in your salad cup or something like that can augment the health of the intestine. Also, try to include as many vegetables as possible in your salad. Pale iceberg lettuce is something that does not have fiber in it. Instead of using them, try using dark green lettuces for serving dark green colored veggies.

If these have no effect, remove salt totally from your eating habit for a few days. Pickles, mustard, ham, diet soda, bottled salad dressing and bacon are all to be avoided. It will decrease the retention of fluid and also aids in the movement of the bowels.

Diarrhea will not be something that is to be concerned about after a few first weeks. But, in some cases, it does indeed last longer. You must first analyze your diet and if you eat low carbohydrate bars of protein and sugar free products, stop them immediately. Sweeteners like sorbitol, glycerin and malitol that create gas and diarrhea problems are present in them. Also, homemade desserts that are of low carbohydrates also may cause problems. While baking, a sweetener, maltodextrin is used. It is made of corn and has the potential to cause problems to a few people.

Diarrhea may also be caused because of raw vegetables if they are new additions to your diet. Your body will indeed adjust itself so that the side effects do not last long. But you must also chew your food very well before swallowing and also, instead of eating raw vegetables, lightly steamed ones can be used.

The initial part of the Atkins diet always has some intestinal problems like these and they are not permanent. They go away as soon as the body gets adjusted to the new diet. If the problem actually persists, then some other method must be tried for getting relief.

Weight Loss Diet Program Failure Overcoming Two Leading Problems

admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 00:38:54 +0000

A large number of people around the world are overweight. Most of them have been following different programs that would help them to lose weight but they were not successful. If you ask any person for the reasons of their failure, one way or the other they will give you the following two problems:

1. They could not follow the program.

2. They lost some weight but could not maintain it.

These two problems are the biggest ones that most people face but this does not mean that they are the only ones. Both of these problems are related to the human mind and not human body. Your exercise plan or diet has got nothing to do with the failure. The main cause of this failure is the mind state of a human being; he is expected to follow the program with consistency which for some people is not possible. Another reason for this failure is the conflict between a person\’s unconscious and conscious state of mind. These two are the reasons due to which a person fails to lose his or her weight. If you are not prepared then nothing can help you get the required results.

The only solution to this problem is to change the entire life style of a person. This will help his sub-conscious mind to accept it and he will be able to follow the plan with more consistency. This shift will solve all the problems and the person will adapt to the new settings. Now this will be more of an adopted life style than a forced on. Now the person will follow the whole diet and exercise program without any trouble. There are numerous advance mind trainings that can help you achieve this state of mind, magically slim being one of them. With the required mind state in place a person will easily follow all the weight loss programs and will be able to maintain it for a long period of time.

With the mind state in place you will need to find yourself a good diet and exercise plan. You can only lose your weight if you are able to burn more calories than you take in. For this reason you need to have a good diet plan. You can ask a doctor to tell you about healthy foods with low calories or you can ask your friends who are already following a plan. You can also use the internet yourself and then evaluate the food items. This way you can eat what you want and you will know how much calories it contains. With your diet plan in place it\’s time to get yourself a good exercise plan. You can go for some basic exercises or advanced exercise but this depends on your level of experience. You can buy the necessary equipment or join a gym for this reason. You also have another option! If you don\’t want to follow exercises then you can go out for walking, cycling, swimming or running. They don\’t require any specialized equipment so they are much easier to adopt.

Atkins Diet: Induction Flu: Signs of Progress or Problems

admin — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 04:31:08 +0000

It is very common that I read questions or statements from new Atkineers saying, "How come I feel so tired?" "Why do I have such a headache?" "I have no energy what is this diet doing to me!" One of the problems is no one forewarned them about Induction flu. Induction flu is simply the body burning its last remaining glucose and stored glycogen for energy, and suffering withdrawal effects. It is very similar to what happens when runners "hit the wall" and cyclist "bonk." In addition to the physical withdrawal symptoms there are the mental symptoms as well. Think of drug addict, are they necessarily pleasant to be around or in high spirits even though they are doing something good. Well the carb addict has the same reaction; I personally was irritable for the first 2 or 3 weeks as I had to figure out how to eat, exert control over what entered my mouth, and regain new comfort foods. It is a dramatic change, and some people resist change. The good news is it is just temporary. It typically only last a few days, but for some the mental effects might last longer. It also shows you are on the right path and making true progress on getting rid of the excess fat. The silver lining is indeed that by the end if you continue the follow the plan you will be burning fat for fuel. You'll have to watch the video for my suggestions on how to lessen the effects.
