Acupuncture Weight Loss Study. How Does it Work?

Last Updated on Friday, 15 January 2010 04:25 Written by Natural Health Team Friday, 15 January 2010 04:25

Acupuncture weight loss is one of the more effective methods that help individuals with excess weight to reduce their body fat successfully. This growing interest in acupuncture as weight loss therapy has come to the attention of researchers with the result that some of these studies have been reported in the International Journal of Obesity. One such study involving acupuncture for weight loss therapy looked at 3,013 different cases which involved overweight people utilizing acupuncture as a tool to lose weight. Randomized controlled studies have also been undertaken to provide evidence as to the efficacy of how achieve acupuncture weight loss.

The randomized controlled studies revealed that, interestingly, body weight decreased by 1.56kg as an average when proper acupuncture was incorporated in weight loss therapy, as opposed to the individuals who were treated with placebos. Overall, the researchers involved with this trial admitted that those individuals who had achieved acupuncture weight loss, lost more weight than those whose weight loss did not include acupuncture. The researchers would like to have included more studies before publishing their results, based on long-term studies. So, even the scientists admit that acupuncture benefits weight loss – but how does it do so?

Basically, losing weight really should be simple: if you balance the calories you are taking into your body with the calories being burned up you will not put on weight – and, if you consume less calories than your body is using, there is nothing to stop you losing weight. Put like that, losing weight naturally should be simple but, for better or worse, we are genetically programmed to eat more than we need to ensure we will have sufficient body fat to see us through those times when food is scarce. This may not occur so much these days, but the eating when food is available is something that has been handed down the generations from those far-off times when our ancestors had to go out and find food – and still survive when food was in short supply.

Most of us also seem to be programmed with a trigger that gets us turning to food when we get stressed or tired, when we are unhappy or sad – or even to reward ourselves when we feel good. In other words, food has become something of a compensatory factor in the busyness of our modern lives. While we all enjoy eating and most of us consume much more than we really need, some people seem to be programmed so that they are more likely to put on weight even when they only eat a little over the threshold. When tested, however, the metabolism of most of these people is ticking away just as normally as the rest of us. Are these people’s bodies actually more efficient at preserving nutrients than the rest of us? This may be true but the excess weight these people are carrying around is not good for their general health and reduces their mobility to such an extent that they move less and, consequently, put on more weight.

If you combine acupuncture treatment with Chinese herbal therapy, both your body and your mind will be stimulated. Not only the digestion will improve but appetite tends to diminish as well as cravings for food. According to TCM (traditional Chinese medicine), liver and spleen problems can cause excessive weight gain. As an acupuncturist stimulates acupoints on liver and spleen meridians it helps tune up work of your internal organs which in return positively affects digestive and endocrine systems.

Science men all over the world agreed that using acupuncture to lose weight really works. But it’s not a magical pill. So to lose weight safely and naturally, it’s absolutely necessary to accomplish daily exercise routines and at the same time strictly limit the amount of consumed calories. Acupuncture as a complementary therapy will help to reduce cravings to eat more than your body needs. Many people no matter how hard are trying to lose weight using traditional methods as diets and exercises find it extremely difficult to get rid of excessive pounds and stabilize weight. So if you are one of them look for alternatives like acupuncture therapy.

5 Ways to Naturally Lower Cholesterol

Last Updated on Tuesday, 5 January 2010 01:39 Written by Natural Health Team Tuesday, 5 January 2010 01:39

If you’ve been diagnosed with high cholesterol, you’re probably trying to come up with ways to lower your cholesterol before turning to medications like Zocor or Lipitor. If so, then you’ve come to the right place. Below are 5 things you can do to help lower your cholesterol naturally.

1. Know your numbers. Men and women ages 20 years old and up should have their cholesterol levels checked at least once a year, more often if you have high cholesterol. That means that even healthy young people with no history of high cholesterol should get tested. A cholesterol problem could sneak up on you and the earlier it’s detected, the easier time you’ll have lowering those numbers.

2. Lose weight. People who carry around extra weight run a higher risk of having high cholesterol, but more important, they have a harder time lowering too-high levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol.

3. Exercise. This will help you lose weight and will help keep your heart healthy. Studies show that people who engage in regular daily brisk walks have up to 75% less chance of heart attack. And that’s just walking! Imagine how happy your heart, arteries, and veins will be if you join a kickboxing class, do power yoga, or start jogging a few miles a day!

4. Eat healthy fats. People with high cholesterol need to learn the difference between healthy fats and unhealthy fats. Healthy fats are those that are made of monounsaturated fats and include peanut butter, canola oil, and avocados. These have been shown to not only reduce LDL cholesterol, but raise the good HDL cholesterol at the same time. Omega-3 fatty acids are also included in this category.

5. Consume fiber-rich foods. Lower high cholesterol and reduce your risk of heart disease without buying drugs from your online drugstore with this simple rule: Fiber should be your new best friend. Both soluble and insoluble fibers (but more soluble) will help lower LDL cholesterol levels, aid digestion, keep arteries clear, and even help curb your appetite. Fiber-rich foods include fruit, vegetables, and whole grains.

Choosing an Insurance Provider

Last Updated on Monday, 4 January 2010 12:58 Written by Natural Health Team Monday, 4 January 2010 12:58

When buying insurance – auto insurance, health insurance, home insurance, life insurance or renters insurance – choosing your insurance provider is a big part of the decision process. When you compare insurance quotes it’s easy to see the different prices offered by different insurance providers, but cost alone may not go into your insurance purchase decision. Your insurance provider should help you get the best possible coverage at the best possible price.

Your insurance provider must be licensed to sell insurance in your state so make use of your state’s insurance department. This department can provide you with recommendations for insurance providers and it keeps a file on insurance providers with complaints and recommendations. Check into any complaints to find out why some customers had problems with different insurance providers. Also don’t be afraid to use your social network and friends for recommendations on insurance providers.

It should go without stating, but on the subject of insurance licensing make sure your insurance provider is licensed to sell insurance in your state and absolutely avoid any unlicensed insurance providers.

It’s also worthwhile to look beyond the lowest price when choosing an insurance provider and take experience into account. Insurance agents are paid the same commission percentage regardless of their experience level. Often a more experienced insurance provider can help you maximize your coverage while saving you the most money over the long term.

A regular review of your insurance policy is a service you should expect from your insurance provider. Before buying insurance, ask the potential providers how often they will look over your policy with you. These reviews ensure your insurance policy is not outdated in any way and that you have the coverage you want.

A final consideration when choosing an insurance provider is they are your support and assistance when accidents, catastrophe or disaster strikes. You want an insurance provider who will fight for your side to resolve any claim you have to make on your insurance.
