4 foods you should never NEVER eat again

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS)
In addition to the myriads of other health risks, it is found to be associated with obesity

 Hydrogenated Oils
Bad, bad, BAD! Not generally recognized as safe. Bad for cholesterol and increases risk of diabetes--which puts at risk for all sorts of complications and other health problems--some terminal. Diabetes also slows metabolism and contributes to obesity.

Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)
In general, MSG is not all that great for anyone. Also, those who eat more MSG are at risk to be overweight.

Aspartame
Aspartame is associated with health risks and is a staple in diet drinks. Zero calories. So how did it happen, that in a 26-year long study, researchers found that those who drink diet sodas gained more weight over the period than those who drank regular soda?

Pea Protein for Weight Control

Add peas to your diet and experience higher energy levels, build strong muscles, bones, healthy tissue, and control your weight!

Peas are high protein and low fat. No wonder they are rated among the world's healthiest foods. Pea protein contains amino acids that are often lacking in other proteins such as lysine. So put peas on your menu without delay!

Pea protein can help you lose weight while retaining muscle, because the protein is easily digested for maximum absorption. With allergies to peas being extremely rare, most everyone can avail themselves of the benefits of this amazing legume.


 Don't eat many peas? Adding pea protein powder to smoothies is an easy way to boost

Good Nutrition Curbs Appetite

Did you know that taking a good multivitamin and eating foods that are good for you can help curb our appetites while eating simple carbs like cakes, cookies, pastries, etc., can make us hungry again in just a few minutes? Sometimes we feel hunger because our bodies are lacking in certain nutrients. We can fend that off by eating a balanced diet and supplementing with good vitamins  and minerals.

Number one best way to lose weight

Is the number one best way to lose weight really to track every single thing you eat and drink? Well, you could certainly do that. It does work for a lot of people. But then, that would be dieting wouldn't it? And seriously, who can maintain that as a lifestyle?

How about taking a long term approach, as in lifestyle change. Take a close look at what you are eating, then make some healthy substitutions you can live with for life? Yes, we are advocating giving up some foods almost entirely. Almost. We understand that there are times when the coconut cream pie, the chocolate fudge, or the Chips Ahoy and milk are certainly in order. But that would be the exception not the rule.

My old favorites? Either a daily double dose of ice cream or chips ahoy (8 to 10 of them) with a cup or two of milk to dip them in (I still indulge once in a very blue moon). My new standby? A homemade mix of coconut  flakes, sliced almonds, and chopped dates. Very sweet and chewy. Definitely comfort food. And....drum roll.....Good for me!
