Here are the top ten diet and weight loss tips.
1. Sunlight
During winter we tend to wear more and thicker clotes and generally people receive less direct sunlight.
Tip: Make time to soak in additional sun rays this winter or supplement your Vitamin D
2. Water
The cold generally causes us to feel less inclined to drink cold water
Tip: Make a point of drinking over 2 litres of water per day, during winter boild your water and add a slice of lemon and let it soak
3. Supplements
When you are on a calorie restricted diet or a weight loss diet it is extremely important that you make sure that your body still receives important nutrients for example Vitamins, minerals, natural salts and oils. Bear in mind that any excess supplements that your body does not use or require is simply ejected and that the best calorie restricted diet to follow is still a balanced diet
4. Natural Bacteria
Your body needs many different types of natural bacteria and for a small percentage of people bacterial deficiency or unhealthy gut could be responsible for excess white fat storage. Natural pro biotics (or healthy bacteria) is found in pickled veggies, yogurt and other fermented food products.
