Going on a "diet" doesn't mean restrictive eating patterns, "no" to favorite foods, going off from certain groups of foods, being under constant supervision, being in constant fear of number on the scale and definitely not about what's "good" and what's "bad".

It's about making changes to lifestyle and eating habits that will have a positive impact on physical, physiological, mental and social well being of an individual.

Next time you go over-the-counter to purchase antacids, when you feel bloated, or have indigestion or heartburn, remember that similar symptoms can occur even when stomach acid goes low.

By taking these medications without proper prescription, you might be making things worse for your gut. Apart from frequent use of antacids, other reasons that can cause the same are a diet high in refined sugar and high stress levels. Low stomach acid can lead to reduced digestion and absorption of proteins and certain minerals, leading to deficiencies.

Omega 3 fats (ALA, EPA, DHA) take the limelight when it comes to prevention of most chronic diseases, and adequate intake of the same can be ensured by improving dietary sources (fish, fish oil, flaxseed, soybean and canola oils) and more easily by using omega 3 supplements.

Like mentioned fatty fishes (eg. mackeral, anchovy, salmon, herring) are considered the richest sources of DHA and EPA; whats interesting is that the fish doesn't produce the same. The fatty acids are originally synthesised by microalgae which the fish feeds on. This then accumulates in their tissues. The presence of EPA and DHA in its direct form is the reason why fish and microalgae are a preferred source of the fatty acid. Plant sources usually contain ALA, and the efficiency of its conversation to EPA and DHA is very low inside our body.

When we choose to make a difference by bringing about dietary modifications and exercise regimen to lose weight, the most neglected and a crucial factor that supports the process is proper SLEEP. In addition to most common risk factors like improper diet and sendentary lifestyle, disturbed sleep and misaligned physiological clock can increase risk of metabolic diseases and increased body weight.

A very interesting study on Sleep Restriction (SR) and Effect on Weight Loss Outcomes shows, how, inspite of similar calorie restriction, something as less as 1 hour restriction of sleep for 5 days in a week, showed less proportion of fat loss when compared to group that was not on sleep restriction.
Fix a time to go to bed and get adequate quantity and quality of sleep to reap maximum benefit from any kind of lifestyle modification you are up to.
