Questions & Answers

Dairy Products
1. How can I add enough calcium if I limit my consumption of dairy products? Will it increase the risk of developing osteoporosis?
I advise many people, milk and milk products be removed from their diet. You wonder then often: "How do I draw the necessary calcium now?" Calcium is really important for many vital functions of the body, but he can actually take up only a much smaller amount than most people think. The fear of a deficiency if dairy products are missing from the diet is totally unfounded.

All leafy green vegetables and grasses contain much calcium (and, moreover, iron, magnesium, vitamin C and many B vitamins), such as celery, cauliflower, okra, onions, green beans, avocado, black beans, chickpeas, almonds, hazelnuts and sesame seeds. You can get a sufficient amount of calcium, if you include this food in your diet. Remember that most cows only eat grass and their meat has a high calcium content. That should tell us a lot.
It is also important to know how much calcium you need to strengthen your bones and prevent osteoporosis. This you have to understand that one of the functions of calcium is to neutralize acids that we eat with sugar, coffee and soft drinks and artificial sweeteners. If many of these acid-forming, calcium-consuming foods are removed from the diet, more calcium is available to get strong bones and a healthy body.

Sugar, artificial sweeteners and natural alternatives

Xylitol is a sugar from the bark of a birch. It is completely natural and can be used as a substitute for sugar. Xylitol contains still some calories (about 2.4 calories per gram compared to 4 calories per gram in sugar). Xylitol is a great alternative for people who want to limit their sugar consumption. Many people digest xylitol difficult and suffer in that period and painful digestive disorders. Watch out for possible side effects from the consumption of xylitol. Agave syrup is made from the agave plant and is also a great alternative to sugar. It consists of 90% fructose (the sugar found in fruit) and has a much lower GI value than sugar.

He is sweet, it will only be used less in order to achieve the same effect. Agave syrup still contains calories and is considered a carbohydrate. 1 tablespoon (or 3 teaspoons) agave correspond to a portion of carbohydrates. The measure is to, as with all other sweeteners, the key to success. Stevia can be purchased in powder form, maybe you'd prefer (I use this form itself). I encourage you to try xylitol and agave syrup, before you switch to honey. They both contain less sugar and have a lower GI value. Part I has definitely works with which version is best.

Biological, and unpasteurized natural honey, molasses and maple syrup contain much sugar.

I suggest you to use these products only in small quantities and stevia, xylitol and / or avoid agave syrup to replace sugar.

25. What is cane sugar and can I use it as a sweetener?
Whole cane sugar is unprocessed cane sugar. Because he does not like typical white refined sugar, is it some people think healthier. Whole cane sugar is still sugar very similar and thus affects the body, so from insulin triggers relapses. Stevia, xylitol and agave syrup are better alternatives to sugar as raw cane sugar and can all be used in baking as a substitute.

26. How can I fight cravings for sweets?
It may be that some old habits come back yet. I suggest you try it with herbal teas and sweeten them with Stevia if you get a meal feel like something sweet. Even a small piece of organic chocolate can help. If you drink coffee, then do it in moderation and sweet with stevia, xylitol or agave syrup.

Many people, including myself, tend to get a desire for sugary foods, if they do not get enough sleep. This often leads to a real roller coaster ride of blood sugar highs and lows and at the end is a tired body. Our hormones are also related to our sleep rhythms.

Sleep deprivation promotes the production of the hormone Grehlin which increases the appetite, while leptin levels decrease - this hormone ensures that we are tired. This change in hormone levels associated with fatigue and make it more difficult to get used to a healthy Essrhythmus.

35. Can stress cause I is not starting, but more and more?
Yes. Stress is often the reason that people get rid of their unwanted weight. The obvious reason is that many people eat when they have stress. The worse the situation usually only because they are stressed and still feel after eating, of course, only worse. Stress increases cortisol levels and keeps it for a long time at this level. Cortisol is released when the stress is over, and often remains in the body longer than we'd like. This hormone increases appetite, so that our body is well fed after a stressful event. Unfortunately, there is often in our society today not only a stressful event, but a stressful life. This leads to constantly high cortisol levels and thus constant hunger.
