0:04
about food and when we are discussing
0:06
these opinions we were talking about
0:07
weight loss
0:09
on today's video we are going to talk
0:10
about five principles that a weight loss
0:13
diet must have and perhaps you're
0:15
wondering why am i always talking about
0:17
weight loss so most cardiovascular
0:19
diseases are directly caused by our food
0:22
choices our lifestyle changes amongst
0:24
other causes of course
0:26
and because these cardiovascular
0:28
diseases like heart attacks heart
0:30
problems hypertension are on a high rise
0:34
and they pose major threats in the
0:36
health of most people then there is an
0:38
obvious need to worry about your weight
0:41
so most overweight and obese individuals
0:44
always get into this weight loss journey
0:46
and soon enough they become at mercy of
0:48
their own demon the rebound effect
0:52
the weight comes back in bigger than
0:54
they ever before and it's very
0:56
devastating so usually there are these
0:58
defense forces
1:00
that motivate our weight loss journey
1:02
you know the need for well-being you
1:04
just want to be healthy maintaining a
1:06
healthy lifestyle number two is they
1:08
need to feel attractive and seductive
1:11
there is always a need to fit into a
1:12
certain group you get into their weight
1:14
loss journey because you want to fit
1:16
into a certain group and there is also
1:19
the fear for illnesses like diabetes
1:22
so maybe just maybe
1:25
getting to have some principles in that
1:28
weight loss that you choose in that
1:29
weight loss journey that you're studying
1:31
can really help you
1:33
towards achieving the goals that you
1:34
really desire
1:37
hello and welcome back to my channel
1:39
thank you so much for tuning in if
1:41
you're new here this is a nutrition and
1:42
lifestyle channel on this channel talk
1:44
about food talk about nutrition i give
1:46
you very easy tips and tricks that can
1:49
help you
1:50
maintain a healthy lifestyle so please
1:52
consider subscribing and turning on your
1:54
notification bell so that you don't miss
1:57
out on the videos that i post
1:59
so the very first principle is that you
2:01
cannot lose fat by eating fat from other
2:04
sources
2:05
okay
2:06
if you're in that weight loss journey
2:08
then lipids and fat should be your
2:10
number one enemy because eating fat is
2:13
like eating another animal's
2:15
fat reserves
2:17
okay
2:18
we find fat from most meats like beef
2:22
pork we also use fat and oils to cook
2:25
our meals so excessive use of fat and
2:27
oils when cooking and also eating these
2:30
extremely fatty foods like french fries
2:32
you know hot dogs sausages can really
2:35
increase your weight without even you
2:38
noticing it
2:39
so you do not want to eat this far to
2:41
the extent that you end up paying with
2:44
your own life you know because of the
2:46
very high cholesterol levels the key
2:48
word here is moderation you really want
2:50
to limit the amount of these fatty foods
2:52
that you're eating and also the amount
2:54
of fat that you're using when you're
2:56
cooking so the key point here is limit
2:59
the use of fats and lipids as much as
3:01
you can
3:02
because this is going to help you
3:04
towards your weight loss very fast
3:06
so the second principle is you need to
3:08
limit
3:09
your use of simple carbohydrates
3:12
okay
3:13
there are these low sugars from
3:16
whole grains from the cereals the grains
3:18
from the legumes and starches
3:20
this is what we usually recommend
3:23
but there are these quick penetrating
3:25
sugars that are the bad guys here you
3:28
know from the sweets the biscuits the
3:30
cakes this over processed foods usually
3:32
contain very simple sugars
3:35
so the problem here is that when you're
3:37
taking too much
3:39
simple sugars these quick penetrating
3:41
sugars you're increasing production of
3:44
insulin in your body because obviously
3:46
when there is too much sugar in your
3:48
bloodstream there is an increased need
3:50
to get the sugar the glucose from the
3:53
bloodstream into the cells so that it
3:54
can be used for energy
3:56
so when there is too much sugar in your
3:59
bloodstream
4:00
that means there is increased need for
4:02
insulin production and when insulin
4:04
production goes up it encourages fat
4:07
production and fat storage
4:09
so you see we encourage
4:11
slow sugars from whole grains from the
4:14
legumes from the starches
4:17
because they will go into the
4:18
bloodstream slowly and the production of
4:22
insulin will not go high and therefore
4:24
you're also going to be able to limit
4:27
the fat
4:28
storage and fat production in your body
4:31
so eventually eating
4:33
slow sugars
4:34
is going to help you in weight
4:36
management
4:37
as compared to eating there fast
4:39
penetrating sugars from over-processed
4:42
foods like sweets cakes
4:44
juices etc
4:47
so the third principle is do not get
4:49
into a diet that restricts proteins
4:53
but unless
4:54
in cases of medical conditions like
4:56
chronic kidney diseases where we limit
4:59
the use of proteins you really need
5:02
proteins in your diet because proteins
5:04
as compared to carbohydrates proteins
5:06
get digested slowly
5:09
because of course because of the strong
5:10
amino acid bonds they get broken down
5:13
slowly and what this means is that you
5:15
remain satisfied for a long time
5:19
that will limit the amount of portion
5:20
size you're going to eat also the
5:22
frequency and the number of times you're
5:24
going to eat in that day
5:26
so proteins are usually more
5:28
indispensable
5:29
as compared to carbohydrates because
5:31
your body can still get the glucose from
5:34
the meats from the proteins and even
5:35
from the fat
5:37
okay
5:38
besides eating proteins will help you
5:40
lose weight without losing your muscle
5:42
and skin tone you know when you're in
5:44
this fast weight loss journey and you
5:46
lose your weight very very fast you
5:49
realize that your skin starts to harm
5:51
but when you include proteins in that
5:53
diet of yours you're able to maintain
5:57
your muscle and skin tone at the same
5:59
time you're going to lose weight
6:02
besides proteins are also important for
6:04
adding skin healthy hair
6:07
and general tissue strength so you
6:09
really need to keep proteins in your
6:10
diet if you want to maintain a good
6:12
general health the principle number four
6:15
is a diet that does not encourage intake
6:18
of sufficient amounts of water is a bad
6:22
diet
6:23
okay not only is it ineffective
6:27
it leads to buildup of too much waste
6:30
products in your body which eventually
6:33
leads to increased
6:34
weight
6:35
okay
6:36
because burning of these foods be its
6:39
carbohydrates be it proteins has waste
6:42
products for example if you you are in a
6:44
pure protein diet there is a waste
6:46
product uric acid and when there is a
6:49
build up of uric acid in your body it
6:52
overwhelms your kidney okay and when the
6:55
kidney is overwhelmed that means there
6:56
is too much waste products that remain
6:58
in your body there is buildup in your
7:01
body and if you're in a habit of
7:04
taking your weight every time every time
7:06
you see a weight scale then you're going
7:08
to get very discouraged
7:11
the more the water you drink the more
7:12
you go to the washrooms
7:14
the more you increase your power the
7:16
power of your kidneys to eliminate more
7:18
waste products and eventually weight
7:20
loss the key point here is losing weight
7:23
is more about eliminating as it is about
7:27
burning the more calories you're burning
7:29
the more the waste products the more you
7:32
need to eliminate them so drinking a lot
7:34
of water will help you eliminate these
7:36
waste products
7:37
quite easily and therefore you're able
7:39
to achieve your results very fast the
7:42
last principle here is stop
7:44
the table salt habit you know salt is a
7:48
low-key culprit because it's not
7:49
mentioned in most weight loss diets
7:53
okay most foods already contain salt so
7:56
that's all that you add on the table is
7:58
almost unnecessary besides salt
8:02
increases salivation which in turn
8:04
increases appetite and when your
8:06
appetite is very increased that means
8:08
you're going to serve larger portions
8:10
and also going to eat more frequently
8:12
than you should
8:13
this is not good for that weight loss
8:15
journey
8:16
okay also too much intake of salt leads
8:18
to water retention and water retention
8:21
means fluids are stuck in your body that
8:23
is
8:24
obviously that is more weight gain
8:27
so the key point here is to reduce the
8:29
use of table salt as much as you can
8:31
because most of these foods already
8:33
contain salt so these are the five
8:35
principles that our weight loss diet
8:37
must have
8:39
you see going through these principles
8:41
you realize that there's one or two
8:42
things that you worry doing right we are
8:45
talking about
8:46
the proteins you d you need you really
8:48
need to have proteins in your diet you
8:50
need to drink that more water you need
8:52
to limit the use of simple carbohydrates
8:55
you need to limit the use of fats and
8:57
lipids and lastly you need to quit the
8:59
table salt habit i hope this video was
