Holistic weight reduction - Part9 - Understanding Good Nutrition


BEFORE WE CAN PROCEED to discuss weight reduction, it is necessary to understand what good nutrition is. It is the appropriate intake of food to provide the needs of the body for energy production to support life as well as physical and mental activities at optimum levels, to consume the necessary vitamins, minerals and building materials to maintain the organs and skeleton where they can function at a healthy pace, to provide adequate amounts of fluid to sustain the integrity of the internal environment of the body and to preserve mental status at the level at which the emotional and physical stresses that are inevitable do not compromise the ideal function of the body-mind unit.

Holistic weight reduction - Part10 - Maintenance of Holistic Health -Physical & Emotional


MENTION MUST BE MADE of a number of other factors, which while they are not usually considered to be part of the advice for ideal weight maintenance, are indeed essential instructions for an integrated approach to health. They are physical exercise, emotional equilibrium and mental relaxation.

Holistic weight reduction - Part11 - Palatability and visual satisfaction of food


Palatability of food and visual satisfaction created by colorful presentation is the fourth point that needs emphasis. Variation of menus prevents monotony as well as the boredom and depression that often results from it.

Holistic weight reduction - Part12 - The Arithmetic of Weight Reduction


While most dietitians and nutritionists talk about the energy intake requirements of an average American male or female, no guru of weight reduction instructs his disciples on how to figure out the daily energy expenditure of a particular individual. Calculations of ‘appropriate’ energy intake based on the current weight of the individual are highly misleading and significantly overestimates the need of required energy intake.

Holistic weight reduction - Part13 - The arithmetic of weight reduction


Calculation of energy intake and expenditure for weight reduction. In order to lose one pound of adipose tissue weight per week, average daily energy expenditure must exceed average daily energy intake by 600 Calories a day or 4100 calories a week.

Holistic weight reduction - Part14 - A Day and a Weekend on a Holistic diet


Once the principles mentioned earlier : the ‘arithmetic’ of weight reduction are understood, one can proceed to create for oneself a personalized reducing diet that is fairly easy to adhere to taking into consideration individual preferences and schedules of work as well as activities of daily living. Traditional wisdom maintains that one should have a king of a breakfast, prince of a lunch and a pauper of a supper.

Holistic weight reduction - Part15 - The pattens of Adipose tissue weight reduction


A discussion of the time course or pattern of weight reduction is appropriate at this stage because often the expectations of those who are on such a program are different from what happens in reality. Most individuals expect a steady straight-line decline in their weight within days of starting a program.

Holistic weight reduction - Part16 - Diets that do not work or are unsafe


Most diets are not successful in creating a sustained weight loss, because they are based on partially or completely false assumptions. Unfortunately, hundreds of books are written every year trying to convince those who are gullible and who have failed in their earlier efforts of weight reduction that there is yet another easy solution for their problems.

Holistic weight reduction - Part17 - Reasons for failure in weight reduction


Majority of individuals who attempt weight reduction do not succeed in achieving their goals. The reasons for this disappointing outcome have been attributed to lack of motivation, failure of will power and inadequate discipline.
