I concur Sue. Apple Cider Vinegar plays a large role in my 12 Week course on better eating. We use it almost daily around here, but mostly in salad dressings and on steamed veggies

Before breakfast drink a tumbler of water (Hot or cold) with 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar. Have at least another 2 glasses during the day. Apple cider vinegar is a great to aid weight loss, it acts as a natural appetite suppressant (take before meals) and helps reduce inches.

I drink about 4-5 glasses a day. It’s nothing like ordinary vinegar but if you’re not too keen on the taste you can always add a 1/2 spoonful of honey to it. Honey helps your energy levels. All good stuff! Remember an apple a day….?

Some interesting new research by a doctor has identified several species of parasites and a specific type of goopy plaque that if left in your bowels makes you fat, bloated, developing a pouch and spare-tire belly.

This is the cause of people’s obesity — fortunately, this research also reveals how to stop it. It further explains that the same cause of why people get fat is also the same reason why people eventually get sick and die prematurely — often cutting off years from their lives (not to mention the quality of their lives).

People who flush these parasites out, often report rapid weight losses up to 100 lbs or more — and without changing a single thing about their diets. Not that you need to lose anywhere near that amount… but it does prove how well it works.

Thanks for the additions Carole

Coffee has been shown to increase blood glucose as much as 25% in a recent study.

8% on a empty stomach, and up to 25% after a meal.

Coffee is also very acidic, when the body wants to be a neutral pH.

Caffeine stresses the adrenals, gives false energy and leads to burnout and ill health. This is why I do not recommend coffee, and do recommend green tea.

Three Suggestions
The first piece of suggestions deals with exercising. Always exercise on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. Talk a walk on a treadmill or around the block a few times. Ten minutes will make a difference by burning stored energy ““ namely fat.

The second useful tip is not eating late night snacks. If you avoid snacking three hours before bedtime, you wont be storing fat, and you will be amazed at the results.

Tip number three suggests that if you are going to drink coffee, make it black. Fancy coffee flavored drinks with cream and sugar are loaded with calories, as opposed to zero in a good old cup of black coffee.

The thing about green tea is that it gives the same results as caffeine tabs without the caffeine. The whole point of the green tea is to increase antioxidants and remove caffeine from the diet.

Yes, Caffeine does increase metabolism, but it’s also a powerful stimulant which can also affect heart health, disrupt sleep and cause the body to store it in fat cells as it’s not natural.

I’m on the fence about caffeine. Lets just say this:

Caffeine – Not Natural and a stimulant

Green Tea – Natural, high in antioxidants and NOT a stimulant

you make your choice how you see fit

Instead of green tea stick with caffeine (tabs not coffee). Use about 200mg one hour prior to your workout.
Your metabolic rate is increased after caffeine intake and you can burn more calories.

I neither recommend or endorse any weight loss supplements other than Sunrider foods (which are foods, not supplements anyway)

I am not familiar with resveratrol but will look into it.

I also, am quite against drugs or pharmaceuticals of any kind for thousands of reasons.

Resveratrol Supplements can help you control your weight naturally
by increasing energy, reducing cravings, and limiting your appetite.
According to Wikipedia, Consumer Lab, an independent dietary
supplement and over the counter products evaluation organization,
published a report on 13 November 2007 on the popular resveratrol
supplements. The organization reported that there exists a wide range
in quality, dose, and price among the 13 resveratrol products
evaluated. The actual amount of resveratrol contained in the
different brands range from 2.2mg for Revatrol, which claimed to have
400mg of “Red Wine Grape Complex”, to 500mg for Biotivia.com Transmax,
which is consistent with the amount claimed on the product’s label.
Prices per 100mg of resveratrol ranged from less than $.30 for
products made by Biotivia.com, jarrow, and country life, to a high of
$45.27 for the Revatrol brand. None of the products tested were found
to have significant levels of heavy metals or other contaminants.

I would also like to comment that eating breakfast has helped control blood sugars for me. I also do not get as agitated as I might have in the past and am much more calmer. Eating breakfast is not only heathy for you but comes with a natural mood enhancer!

I enjoy Calli Tea as well. My favourite is the Cinnamon and the Calli night for the evening.

I’ve started a strange habit. I am putting curry powder on my eggs in the morning. Believe me, breakfast was a big change for me but for me to suddenly LOVE curry, spice and things that once caused me stomach troubles is an amazing thing!
