Some more reasons why eggs help with Weightloss

Hi, on this Wonderful Wednesday, we get to look at the last reason to include eggs in your healthy diet: in order to BURN that BELLY FAT
For more info as well as yummy recipes see the blog at www.turbotrim.co.za/blog

Vitamin D in the yolk can be a belly fat buster.

Egg yolks are also a source of Vitamin D, a nutrient that plays a role in bone health and immunity. Vitamin D is not found naturally in many foods, and 100 percent of the Vitamin D in eggs is found in the yolk. So if you don’t eat the yolk, you will also miss out on an important dietary source of Vitamin D.

A 2018 study found a correlation between excess belly fat and Vitamin D deficiency in overweight individuals and concluded that healthy levels of Vitamin D in the diet could potentially reduce abdominal fat.

Pairing protein and fat is key.

If you can keep yourself full and satisfied for as long as possible, you will overcome one of the greatest challenges of trying to lose weight. One of the ways that this can be achieved is by eating a combination of fat and protein together.
Eggs are a source of fat and protein, which are both nutrients that contribute to satiety. When including foods to aid in weight loss or maintenance, it is a good idea to pair food groups to increase satisfaction, like protein with fat.

It is important to combine healthy fat and protein. Protein takes the longest for our bodies to break down, but fat delays gastric emptying, and therefore, the combination of the two helps keep us fuller for longer. Staying full and satisfied between meals is essential for weight loss, as it cuts down on mindless snacking and helps prevent feelings of deprivation.

Eggs are rich in antioxidants.

Antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin are present in egg yolks, two carotenoids that studies show accumulate in our retinas and could encourage proper eye function.

Antioxidants, in general, cannot be proven to necessarily spur weight loss, but they save body cells by protecting them from damage by harmful chemicals called free radicals and have been said to reduce the risk for heart disease and certain types of cancers. The same high-antioxidant foods, fruits like blueberries and strawberries, and vegetables like tomatoes and broccoli, are the same foods that contribute to healthy weight management as well.

Eggs have no sugar content.

Unlike many other breakfast foods, you may choose to eat, including even "healthy" cereals, yogurt, granolas, and toasts, eggs are virtually sugar-free.

Research has proven sugar to be a culprit of weight and fat gain and a major cause of obesity, not to mention a probable cause of high blood pressure and Type 2 Diabetes. The World Health Organization has recommended that both adults and children consume no more than 25 grams of added sugar per day, so an egg-filled breakfast (or lunch or dinner) is a great place to start.

Eating eggs can keep your blood sugar levels stable.

Because eggs have basically no carbs, eating eggs does not affect your blood glucose levels, so these levels stay stable and at normal levels (especially in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes).

This helps to keep you satisfied longer after eating your meal.
Spikes in blood sugar after eating carbs can cause a crash later on, causing you to potentially have more food cravings and stray from your healthy diet, due to the vicious cycle of your body releasing insulin to process those carbs.

Eggs are low on the glycemic index as well, making them a perfect selection to help you to keep your carbohydrate consumption lower on your diet.

Eggs are the perfect swap for carbs at breakfast.

A study published in the International Journal of Obesity reported that the participants who ate a consistent breakfast of eggs saw a 34 percent decrease in centimeters off their waist and a 16 percent decrease in body fat, in comparison to the participants who consistently ate bagels for breakfast instead.

People who consume eggs for their morning meal versus a higher-carb breakfast like a bagel tend to show less hunger, greater satiety, and lower calorie consumption later in the day.

Eggs don't affect your risk of stroke or heart disease.

The myth of eggs being harmful to your cholesterol levels, and therefore your heart health has been disproven. The available evidence indicates that eggs, when consumed as part of an overall healthy diet, do not affect risk factors for Heart Disease.

Consuming one to two whole eggs a day does not appear to negatively affect one's blood cholesterol level or heart disease risk factors. In fact, omega 3-enriched eggs may even help lower triglyceride levels. That's great because high triglyceride levels are a common health issue facing many overweight people.

Eggs make it easier to eat more veggies.

Eggs are delicious and having eggs in our diet will also help us eat more vegetables. (Think: scrambled eggs and omelets.) In fact, adding eggs to many vegetable dishes can vastly improve the taste of that dish in so many exciting ways.

A Journal of the American Dietetic Association study found that adding more vegetables to your diet has been linked to increased weight loss. Besides starting your day with a veggie-rich omelet, you can also add eggs into so many dishes to enable you to sneak in many more vegetables. It is also a useful way to sneak more veggies into your kid’s diets. Think of casseroles and quiches.

Eggs Are Cheap and Easy to Prepare

Incorporating eggs into your diet is very easy.
They are inexpensive, widely available, and can be prepared within minutes.
Eggs are delicious almost every way you make them, but are most often boiled, scrambled, made into an omelet or baked.
A breakfast omelet made with a couple of eggs and some vegetables make for an easy, excellent, and quick weight loss friendly breakfast.

SUMMARY: Eggs are inexpensive, available almost everywhere, and can be prepared in a matter of minutes.

Take-Home Message

Adding eggs to your diet may be one of the easiest food to eat if you're trying to lose weight.
They can make you feel more full, satisfied, and help you eat fewer calories throughout the day.
Furthermore, eggs are a great source of many vitamins and minerals that are commonly lacking in the diet.
Eating eggs, especially for breakfast, may just be what makes or breaks your weight loss diet.

Why are eggs good for weight loss?

​Hi, on this Mesmerisng Monday we get to look at WHEN to include eggs in your healthy diet: in order to BURN that BELLY FAT
For more info as well as yummy recipes see the blog at www.turbotrim.co.za/blog
​

In this article, we describe how to use eggs to support weight loss, including when to eat them.
Eggs Are a Great Way to Start Your DayAs part of a balanced diet, eggs can provide many health benefits. A growing body of research suggests that eating eggs can also support weight loss.
When to eat eggs
Eating eggs for breakfast seems to be especially beneficial for weightloss.
Eggs may be especially helpful for weight loss if a person eats them for breakfast.
Research suggests that a person who eats an egg-based breakfast may consume less food throughout the day.

Many studies have compared the effects of eating eggs in the morning versus eating other breakfasts with the same calorie content.
Several studies of overweight women showed that eating eggs instead of bagels increased their feeling of fullness and caused them to consume fewer calories over the next 36 hours.
In 2005, researchers compared the effects of eating an egg-based breakfast with a bagel-based breakfast in overweight female participants.
The calorie counts in both breakfasts were equal, but participants who ate the eggs consumed significantly less food throughout the rest of the day.
Egg breakfasts have also been shown to cause up to 65% greater weight loss, over 8 weeks.
Furthermore, the egg breakfast caused a more stable blood glucose and insulin response, while also suppressing ghrelin (the hunger hormone).
Why are eggs good for weight loss?Eggs may help promote weight loss for the following three reasons:
1. Eggs are nutritious and low in calories
Eggs are low in calories and rich in protein.

A large hard-boiled egg contains 78 calories and several important nutrients, including:
  • lutein and zeaxanthin, which are antioxidants that support healthy eyesight
  • Vitamin D, which promotes bone health and immune function
  • choline, which boosts the metabolism and helps with foetal brain development
The simplest way to lose weight is to curb the intake of calories, and adding eggs to the diet may help.
For example, a breakfast of two hard-boiled eggs and a cup of vegetables e.g salad contains just 274 calories.
However, cooking eggs with oils or butter increases the caloric and fat contents significantly. A tablespoon of olive oil, for example, contains 119 calories.
Share on
2. Eggs are rich in proteinProtein aids weight loss because it is extremely filling, and eggs are a good source of protein, with one large egg providing approximately 6 grams (g) of Protein.
The recommended intake for protein is 0.8 g per kilogram of body weight.
This means that:
  • the average sedentary man requires 56 g of protein per day
  • the average sedentary woman requires 46 g of protein per day
Therefore, two large eggs make up over 25% of an average sedentary woman’s protein needs for the day, and over 20% percent of an average sedentary man’s needs.
Some research indicates that eating a protein-rich breakfast increases a person’s satiety, which is the feeling of fullness. The findings also suggest that a protein-rich breakfast leads to a reduction in caloric intake throughout the rest of the day.
This impressive reduction in calorie intake was unintentional and effortless. The only thing they did was to eat eggs at breakfast.
A 2012 study, published in the British Journal of Nutrition, suggests that dietary protein helps to treat obesity and metabolic syndrome, in part because it makes people feel more satisfied.
3. Eggs can boost the metabolismEating a high-protein diet can enhance the metabolism through a process called the thermic effect of food.
It happens because the body needs to use extra calories to digest and process nutrients in food.
Carbohydrates and fats also boost the metabolism, but to a lesser extent than protein.
According to the findings of a 2014 study:
  • Protein increases a person’s metabolic rate by 15–30 percent.
  • Carbohydrates increase the metabolic rate by 5–10 percent.
  • Fats increase the metabolic rate by as much as 3 percent.
Therefore, eating eggs and other high-protein foods may help people to burn more calories than eating carbohydrates or fats.
A similar study in men came to the same conclusion, showing that an egg breakfast significantly reduced calorie intake for the next 24 hours, compared to a bagel breakfast. The egg eaters also felt more full.
Research from 2010 reported the same effect in adult men.
In a study from 2013, adult male participants who ate eggs for breakfast required smaller lunches and seemed to feel more satisfied than those who ate carbohydrate-rich breakfasts.
Another study in 30 healthy and fit young men compared the effects of three types of breakfasts on three separate occasions. These were eggs on toast, cereal with milk and toast, and croissant with orange juice.
The egg breakfast caused significantly greater satiety, less hunger and a lower desire to eat than the other two breakfasts.
Eggs are rich in protein, low in calories, and they may boost the metabolism.
Furthermore, eating eggs for breakfast caused the men in the study above to automatically eat about 270–470 calories less at lunch and dinner, compared to eating the other breakfasts.
However, monitoring caloric intake is still important. A 2008 study reported that an egg-based breakfast enhanced weight loss in overweight or obese participants, but only as part of a calorie-controlled diet.
In SUMMARY: Eating eggs for breakfast may increase your feeling of fullness and make you automatically eat fewer calories, for up to 36 hours.

EGG YOLKS CONTAIN A NUTRIENT ESSENTIAL TO METABOLISM CALLED CHOLINE

.Hi, on this fantastic Friday we get to look at the third reason to include eggs in your healthy diet: in order to BURN that BELLY FAT
For more info as well as yummy recipes see the blog at www.turbotrim.co.za/blog

EGG YOLKS CONTAIN A NUTRIENT ESSENTIAL TO METABOLISM CALLED CHOLINE.

Choline, only found in the yolk of eggs (so you need to eat the whole egg) is a major source of nutrients that we may be lacking in our normal diet. Our bodies can synthesize a small amount of this nutrient, but not enough to meet its needs. So, you need to load up on foods like eggs to ensure you have the right levels. Choline plays a part in many functions within the body including nerve function, metabolism, and brain development.

One large egg, with the yolk, supplies about 145 milligrams choline, or more than one-quarter of the Daily Value of 550 milligrams. It is a good idea to make eggs part of your daily routine. One Journal of Human Kinetics study even reported that supplementing one’s diet with choline contributed to a lower body mass in female athletes and was thought to have contributed to positive athletic performance as well.

The choline found in eggs is imperative for brain development, especially before birth and in early childhood.
Choline is involved in producing cells dealing with memory, mood, muscle control, and other brain functions. Studies suggest that mood disorders like anxiety and depression appear to be connected to unhealthy weight and unhealthy metabolism, so good mental health habits and a healthy diet could influence metabolism in a positive way.

Another nutrient found in eggs, lutein, has some hidden brainpower as well. Lutein is also present in the brain and has been linked to optimal cognition in older adults and academic performance in children.

There could be a connection between healthy brain function and maintaining a healthy weight, according to Harvard Health. Eating processed, sugary foods (which is what makes you gain weight) could be detrimental to brain health and contribute to anxiety or other mental health issues.

It's no coincidence that eggs are a go-to hangover cure breakfast, because choline, the superhero nutrient in eggs, can help liver cells reboot, research shows. Dietitians agree that liver metabolism can't happen without choline, and a healthy liver adds to a healthy fat-melting metabolism in general.

Amazing nutrients in eggs

Hi, welcome to another Wonderful Wednesday.  Today we continue to explore the numerous reasons to include eggs into your Healthy Eating Program in order to BURN that BELLY FAT
 
For more info as well as yummy recipes see the blog at www.turbotrim.co.za/blog
 
Eggs are abundant sources of several nutrients necessary for the proper functioning of the human body.
Egg whites are an excellent source of protein along with a significant amount of vitamins and minerals. Selenium, vitamin D, B6, and B12 (also called cobalamin); and minerals such as phosphorus, zinc, iron, and copper are rich in egg whites. Our bodies need Vitamin B12 to metabolize fat.  Eggs contain the most concentrated source of vitamin B12 by weight when compared to milk and meat. 100 grams of chicken eggs contain 18% of the vitamin B12 i.e. each egg contains 0.89 micrograms of vitamin B12. A single large chicken egg contains roughly 72 calories
 It is highly recommended to eat eggs for breakfast.  It gives you a lot of energy and is an excellent source of protein.
Egg Yolks contain more calories and dietary cholesterol than egg whites. Fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, and lecithin are present in good amounts in egg yolks.
 
Pairing protein and fat is key. To keep yourself full for as long as possible—one of the greatest challenges of dieting—the combination of fat and protein should be your go-to. Eggs are a source of fat and protein, which are both nutrients that contribute to satiety. When including foods to aid in weight loss or maintenance, it is recommended to pair food groups to increase satisfaction.
Protein takes longest for our bodies to break down, but fat delays gastric emptying, and therefore, the combination of the two helps keep us fuller for longer. Staying full between meals is essential for weight loss, as it cuts down on mindless snacking and helps prevent feelings of deprivation.

Consuming fats isn't what makes you gain kilos.

Eggs, even the full yolk, are lower in fat than you might think. One large egg has about five grams of fat, which is less than 10 percent of the total fat needs per day for someone consuming 2,000 calories per day. Plus, research published in the journal Diabetes and Endocrinology has proven that consuming fats is not the enemy. In fact, adhering to a high-fat Mediterranean diet can help you maintain a lower body weight.

Eggs are a low-calorie food. If you happen to be counting calories, you can count eggs in, because they're a solid, filling low-calorie food. One large egg has about 72 calories.
If you want to reduce your calorie intake to lose weight, you need to ensure that you don’t miss out on protein, vital vitamins, and nutrients, and eggs are a great way to ensure you still get these. And they will fit right into your weight loss routine, too. As far as weight goes, since eggs contain about six grams of protein each and the necessary fat and vitamins the body needs, they help people stay satisfied or fuller longer, which may help decrease overall calorie intake.

First reason for eating  Eggs to help with Weightloss

Picture
Hi, on this terrific Tuesday we are starting our series on the 10 BEST FOODS that BURN BELLY FAT
Today, we are going to discuss the first one which is……… drumroll please,.......…………………EGGS

For more info as well as yummy recipes see the blog at www.turbotrim.co.za/blog

There are sooo many good reasons to include eggs in your diet if you are wanting to lose weight, which will make this post WAY TOO LONG and because we don’t like to read things that are too long, I have decided to break up the benefits of eating eggs to lose weight, into small bite-size pieces. So here is the first point:1) EGGS MAY BOOST YOUR METABOLISM BECAUSE THEY ARE HIGH IN PROTEIN
Eggs are rich in protein. Protein aids weight loss because it is extremely filling, and eggs are a good source of protein. One large egg provides about 6 grams (g) of protein. The dietary reference intake for protein is 0.8 g per kilogram of body weight.
Eggs contain all the essential amino acids (which are used to make proteins) and in the right ratios.
This means your body can easily use the protein in eggs for maintenance and metabolism.

Eating a high-protein diet has been shown to boost metabolism by up to 80–100 calories a day, through a process called the thermic effect of food.
The thermic effect of food is the energy required by the body to metabolize foods and is higher for protein than for fat or carbs.
This means that high-protein foods, such as eggs, help you burn more calories.

Eggs are a great source to refuel post-exercise, as they are a lean source of protein which is important to help repair and rebuild muscles post-workout

One egg has all nine essential amino acids. These amino acids play a key role in energy metabolism and are essential to getting you through your workout. Amino acids, found within proteins, are something we can't live without and fuel basically all our cells in processing protein and creating energy.
Weight gain and loss is a major metabolic process that will ultimately be dependent on the presence of amino acids.

SUMMARY: Eggs are high in protein. A high-protein diet may boost your metabolism by up to 80–100 calories per day since extra energy is needed to help metabolize the protein in foods, so it is a good idea to include eggs in your diet if you are wanting to lose weight.

 Benefit 10 of eating Kale - Weightloss

Picture
Hi again. Welcome to another Magical Monday. I hope you had an amazing weekend and are all ready for a healthy week. Here is day 10 and the last benefit of including kale into your diet.
Kale Should Be Able to Help You Lose Weight
Kale has several properties that make it a weight loss friendly food.
It is very low in calories but still provides significant bulk that should help you feel full.
Because of the low calorie and high water content, kale has a low energy density. Eating plenty of foods with a low energy density has been shown to aid weight loss in numerous studies
Kale also contains small amounts of protein and fiber. These are two of the most important nutrients when it comes to losing weight.
Although there is no study directly testing the effects of kale on weight loss, it makes sense that it could be a useful addition to a weight loss diet.
SUMMARY As a nutrient-dense, low-calorie food, kale makes an excellent addition to a weight loss diet.
The Bottom Line
Fortunately, adding kale to your diet is relatively simple. You can simply add it to your salads or use it in recipes as I have posted for the last week.
A popular snack is kale chips, where you drizzle some extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil on your kale, add some salt, and then bake in it an oven until dry.
It tastes absolutely delicious and makes a great crunchy, super healthy snack.
A lot of people also add kale to their smoothies in order to boost their nutritional value.
At the end of the day, kale is definitely one of the healthiest and most nutritious foods on the planet.
If you want to dramatically boost the amount of nutrients you take in, consider loading up on kale.

Benefit 9 of eating Kale - Kale Is High in Lutein and Zeaxanthin, Powerful Nutrients That Protect the Eyes

Hi, I hope you are having a Fabulous Friday. Here is day 9 of the benefits of including kale into your diet

Kale Is High in Lutein and Zeaxanthin, Powerful Nutrients that Protect the Eyes

One of the most common consequences of aging is that eyesight gets worse.
Fortunately, there are several nutrients that can help prevent this from happening.
Two of the main ones are lutein and zeaxanthin, carotenoid antioxidants that are found in large amounts in kale, and some other foods.
Nicknamed “the eye vitamin,” lutein is a type of carotenoid antioxidant that is most well-known for protecting eye health.
Many studies have shown that people who eat enough lutein and zeaxanthin have a much lower risk of macular degeneration and cataracts, two very common eye disorders
What does lutein do for your eyes?
• The antioxidant abilities of lutein help fight free radical damage caused by blue light or sun exposure, a poor diet, and other factors that increase the risk of developing age-related vision loss or disorders. These include problems like macular degeneration and cataracts.
• In the process, antioxidants like lutein protect healthy cells while halting the growth of malignant cells.
• Within the eyes, one of the most important functions of the lens is to collect and focus light on the retina. That is exactly why the lens needs to remain “clear” and free from the cloudiness that is indicative of cataracts. The major reason the lens becomes cloudy is damage due to oxidation. This is why we need antioxidants to help neutralize free radicals.
• Even in people who have existing eye damage, including plenty of lutein in their diets can help stop the condition from progressing and further damaging vision.
This eye vitamin isn’t just beneficial for older adults — taking preventative measures is the real key to preserving your vision and eye health. Both older and younger people should consume plenty of lutein in order to reduce the risk of oxidative damage that can lead to disorders down the road.
Although carotenoids are extremely important for vision and your eyes, their benefits don’t stop there. Aside from protecting eyes, lutein uses also include helping prevent skin disorders, several types of cancer including colon or breast cancer, type 2 diabetes, and risk factors associated with coronary heart disease.
Health Benefits
Lutein vitamin is considered a natural treatment for macular degeneration symptoms (AMD), which is considered the most common cause of blindness among older adults. Estimates show that more than 25 million people worldwide are affected by age-related macular degeneration or cataracts, especially people aged 55 and older living in industrialized Western nations. Sadly, the incidence of AMD is expected to triple by 2025, according to the American Optometric Association.
Lutein protects the eyes by filtering out a percentage of damaging short-wavelength UV light that negatively affects delicate parts of the eyes, such as the retina (the macula). Research done at Harvard University has found that supplementing with lutein daily can lower the risk for macular degeneration.
Similarly, other studies show that higher dietary intakes of zeaxanthin and lutein along with other natural antioxidants, including vitamin C, beta-carotene, and vitamin E, are associated with a significantly decreased risk of cataract formation. While the research is still in its early stages, taking lutein three times weekly for up to two years has been shown to improve vision in older people who already have cataracts.
Other benefits of lutein for eye health include:
• helping reduce eye fatigue, glare, and light sensitivity
• helping keep the lens and retina at appropriate densities
• strengthening eye tissue
• and ¬helping vision be more acute
Helps Protect Skin Health
In addition to being found within the pigments of our eyes, carotenoids are also present within the skin. To preserve skin health and fight skin cancer, lutein helps filter high-energy wavelengths of visible light, which slows down the rate of oxidative stress. Some animal studies show evidence that lutein offers significant protection against light-induced skin damage, such as signs of aging and potentially skin cancer.
Can Help Lower Diabetes Risk
According to some animal studies, higher levels of carotenoids within the blood are linked with fewer problems controlling blood sugar and a lower risk for diabetes or related complications. A 2009 study conducted on diabetic rats found that supplementing with lutein and DHA (a crucial type of omega-3 fatty acid) helped normalize all diabetes-induced biochemical modifications.
Compared to the control group, diabetic rats taking the supplements experienced lower oxidative stress rates and less damage done to the retina of the eyes, despite being under hyperglycemic conditions.
Might Help Lower Risk of Cancer
Some evidence shows that people who obtain more lutein from their diets experience lower rates of breast, colon, cervical, and lung cancers. While we don’t know exactly how lutein and cancer formation is tied just yet, correlational studies have shown that adults with higher levels of lutein in the blood experience a reduced risk of developing several forms of common cancers. This includes a 2018 study in which researchers concluded: “Dietary lutein supplementation may be a promising alternative and/or adjunct therapeutic candidate against breast cancer.”
Lutein may act as a natural cancer treatment because of the fact that foods rich in lutein (like leafy greens and citrus fruits) also provide other beneficial antioxidants and nutrients that lower disease-causing inflammation and oxidative stress. However, at this time, more research is still needed to help us fully understand the effects of carotenoids on cancer, along with immune, hormonal and cardiovascular health, independent of other nutrients that are found in fruits and vegetables.
Can Help Maintain Heart Health
Some observational studies show that xanthophyll carotenoids, including lutein, can help reduce the risk of developing heart disease and stroke. Just like with the previously mentioned studies that show potential cancer-protective effects of this carotenoid, we aren’t exactly sure yet how it improves heart health. Because it has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, it seems that it would benefit heart health by lowering inflammation, which is an underlying cause of coronary heart disease.
Studies done by the University of Southern California suggest that low levels of lutein within the blood might contribute to the thickening of artery walls. This raises the risk for arteriosclerosis development and clogging of the carotid arteries that can lead to heart attacks. USC’s observational studies show that people with the highest levels of lutein in the blood experience less plaque build-up in the arteries, while the opposite is also true: The fewer lutein-rich plant foods someone eats, the more clogged their arteries seem to become. Another convincing factor is that after the researchers tested effects of the carotenoid on human arteries that were removed during surgery, fewer white cells were present within the arteries after lutein supplementation compared to controls, suggesting that less inflammation and clogging occurred.

SUMMARY Kale is high in lutein and zeaxanthin, nutrients that have been linked to a drastically reduced risk of macular degeneration and cataracts and also have a lot of other health benefits, so it is a good idea to include them in your diet and kale is a great source.

Kale Is a Good Source of Minerals

Picture
​Hey, Thank you for Thursday today. Here is day 8 of the benefits of including kale into your diet.
Kale Is a Good Source of Minerals That Most People Don't Get Enough Of
Kale is high in minerals, some of which many people are deficient in.
Kale is a good plant-based source of calcium, a nutrient that is very important for bone health and plays a role in all sorts of cellular functions.
The body needs calcium to maintain strong bones and to carry out many important functions. Almost all calcium is stored in bones and teeth, where it supports their structure and hardness. The body also needs calcium for muscles to move and for nerves to carry messages between the brain and every body part
Kale is also a decent source of magnesium, an incredibly important mineral that most people don't get enough of. Eating plenty of magnesium may be protective against type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps to maintain normal nerve and muscle function, supports a healthy immune system, keeps the heartbeat steady, and helps bones remain strong. It also helps adjust blood glucose levels. It aids in the production of energy and protein
Kale also contains quite a bit of potassium, a mineral that helps maintain electrical gradients in the body's cells. Adequate potassium intake has been linked to reduced blood pressure and a lower risk of heart disease
One advantage that kale has over leafy greens like spinach is that it is low in oxalate, a substance found in some plants that can prevent minerals from being absorbed.
SUMMARY Many important minerals are found in kale, some of which are generally lacking in the modern diet. These include calcium, potassium and magnesium.

Hi, I wish you all a Wonderful Wednesday. I hope you are managing to eat Healthy food this week and are trying some of the delicious recipes that I am posting for you to help you to introduce more healthy food into your daily meals. Here is day 7 of the benefits of including kale into your diet.
 
Kale Is Very High in Beta-Carotene

Kale is often claimed to be high in vitamin A, but this is not entirely accurate.
It is actually high in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that the body can turn into vitamin A.
The human body converts beta carotene into vitamin A (retinol) – beta carotene is a precursor of vitamin A. We need vitamin A for healthy skin and mucus membranes, our immune system, and good eye health and vision. Vitamin A can be sourced from the food we eat, through beta carotene, for example, or in supplement form

For this reason, kale can be an effective way to increase your body's levels of this very important vitamin.
​
SUMMARY Kale is very high in beta-carotene, an antioxidant that the body can turn into vitamin A.

Hi, welcome to this tremendous Tuesday. Here is day 6 of the benefits of including kale into your diet.
There Are Numerous Cancer-Fighting Substances in Kale
Kale is actually loaded with compounds that are believed to have protective effects against cancer.
One of these is sulforaphane, a substance that has been shown to help fight the formation of cancer at the molecular level.
It also contains indole-3-carbinol, another substance that is believed to help prevent cancer.
Studies have shown that cruciferous vegetables (including kale) may significantly lower the risk of several cancers, although the evidence in humans is mixed.
SUMMARY Kale contains substances that have been shown to help fight cancer in test-tube and animal studies, but the human evidence is mixed.
Below is Today's Kale recipe.

    Hi. I am Sandi Sackstein. I received my degree in BSC Occupational Therapy (Hons) in 1986, specialising in Stress Management and Behaviour Modification.
    I always had a weight problem and tried all the diets that I could find, but my weight losses always returned.
    In 1994, after the birth of my  second son, I, together with a chemist, developed my own weight loss program, and lost 22kg in only two and a half months. I have maintained this weight loss for over 25 years and have developed a holistic weight loss program, based on my training and experiences that have helped thousands of people to modify their stress and eating habits to permanently maintain their weight loss.
    I am passionate about helping people, and have run many courses, with groups, as well as one-to-one meetings to show that you can change your way of thinking about eating, eat well and easily maintain your weight, permanently!
