most people do not think about there bodies digestion ,there are a lot of health related problems attributed to the fact that the body is not digesting and absorbing the food properly.

I’m not going to complicate this ,digestion involves the breakdown of food molecules for absorption into your body,thanks to acid produced in the stomach and digestive enzymes released in your saliva and by the pancreas.A lot of people i watch are always in a hurry and don’t chew there food they gulp it down and then wonder why they are not losing weight ,to properly digest your food you should chew the food until it becomes liquid.

Raw Fat burning foods has its own enzymes,this will give your digestive system a helping hand,when I’m preparing a meal i will always have something cooked and some non cooked food.

An brilliant source for your diet is to eat plenty of fibre rich food and plenty of water,if you are guilty of eating to much processed sugar,refined food,red meat,dairy products and processed food you will damage your digestion and invite excess yeast and unfriendly bacteria make themselves at home in your stomach,which then leads to putting on weight.

Its is vital that you keep your blood sugar levels balanced ,if you don’t then everyday you will be prone to the highs and lows of the sugar rushes ,there are many health related problems big and small that can be traced to a blood sugar imbalance caused by food choices. All through the day your body requires a steady supply of glucose in the bloodstream for mental and physical energy.when we eat fat burning foods such as fruits and vegetables,beans,pulses and whole -grains, they release glucose into the bloodstream at a nice steady rate.

If your living on sugary foods you will put weight on and its like a drug you just cant stop until you get your next fix of chocolate,biscuits,cakes,fizzy drinks ,sweets or white pasta/rice/bread these foods break down very quickly and cause an unwanted, rapid rise in sugar,followed by a dramatic drop in blood sugar(hypoglycemia).

Eating the wrong can make you tired and moody ,i had energy slumps,felt shaky and confused and i was always craving sugar this can lead to heart disease and type 2 diabetes and eventually putting weight ,i didn’t know what was wrong with me.

By making some changes in your life you will start to notice some changes in your life ,always start with a breakfast like porridge and avoid alcohol,caffeine and refined and sugary foods it can all sound a bit confusing but it really is quite simple
