Hello MaxHealthPotential enthusiast!

Welcome to my site and believe me hundreds have already benefited from this program, which made me now to officially publish it and let the word spread further. I’m thrilled to have you visiting this site and know that it will change your life forever as it did for me in 2010!  I’m 52 years old, father of 2 boys, and am an entrepreneur, author and philanthropist.  However after a crazy lifestyle, a close friend of mine invited me to his body rebalance health SPA and said I need treatment as my internals were all “messed up” according to him. To cut a long story short and after the tests and long stay at the spa, I found out several things about me as well as my body, diet, the benefits of detox, massages, yoga, meditation, enemas, enzymes, etc. to name but a few. I went away as a transformed person, and oh yes, I learnt that I had positive stress (a new term for me) which kept me fully healthy. I had NO internal issues but still lost 5Kg in 8days and felt like a million dollars. If he had told me what I was going to go through I would not have turned up, but I am now a regular practising body rebalance juice feast person at least once or twice a year. Previously, I was just like you-wanting to look and feel my best, but found myself not having the time! So, now I took the best from all the research I have done since then and compiled my program that’s had hundreds of friends and family benefit from it. Hence from all that pressure I decided to write my book.

I started my body rebalance program which includes the juicing, and let me tell you about the benefits! If you want to have improved metabolism, more peaceful sleep, reduce all sorts of issues from diabetes to even cancer, gain abundant energy, detox naturally, healthy glowing skin, reduced cravings, weight loss, and nutrition at the cellular level-then KEEP READING and see the testimonials too!

I know what you are thinking-It’s going to be an expensive trip to a SPA or an expensive program, take forever to see results, and I’ll be starving all day! Well, I’m here to tell you that you are wrong and be surprised! My “7 Day Body Rebalance and Detox Juice Feast” is super easy, way better than paying a doctor’s medical bill, and you will be finally taking your health into your own hands! I very rarely go to doctors( been off sick for just 4 days in my working career of over 25 years, and even those were self-inflicted! ). How much money and time do people spend to care for their homes, cars, holidays etc…all material things just to give the “”aha”” factor which is temporary, and we spend thousands on that. Have you imagined for once that if your mind, body and soul is in disorder, you will NOT have the health to have enjoy those Aha moments, so isn’t it obvious to spend some time and money on that…. And by the way my program does NOT cost anything in the grand scheme of things.

I am an entrepreneur with a holistic health and wellness business www.shaktiholistic.com and am also a lifestyle coach with immense experience in real life matters rather than text book experiences only! My friends and VIP clients have nicknamed me ” Shakti Baba”” …haha!

I’d like to ask you a simple question. When you wake up and look at yourself in the mirror, how often do you say, “”I must start that diet, or gym soon?””..Well my program is easy, doable at home and is a very natural way to achieve major health benefits NOT only with weight loss.

A recent client missed her period after this program and in a panic started doing all tests found them negative yet could not explain how 5 days late can happen with no stomach cramps etc. When she finally had them it was a relief but her comment to me was “” I feel much better this time and my body feels lot lighter, skin fresher and I am less stressed”” . 99% of all women go through extended periods of dissatisfaction with their health and outer appearance. They spend endless hours working out and dieting, hoping beyond hope that the latest effort will produce permanent, long lasting results. It’s tough!

I know how hard it is. I travel a lot the time on business, and a daily schedule as busy as the President. I was more than 9kgs overweight, always eating late nights, irregular eating and sleeping patterns, felt oily skinned, wanting to have a drink regularly, party, eat red meats, and very little, if any vegetables.  I did zero exercises, well the occasional golf and dancing, that’s the lifestyle I had. Sound familiar? I had zero time for myself. My personal time was my lowest priority. However, just because I was having fun and could keep doing that, I thought I was healthy and will go on like this forever, which I do want to, hence I decided to change and do everything in a balance. So with that in mind and after all we have only one life, lets enjoy that and keep things in balance. I found my program gave me that balance, like going to a car service every 6 months, changing all the oil, filters, fluids etc and rejuvenating it with new fresh higher graded replacements. That’s what this program will do for you! So, like me if you want to stay away from doctors and reinvent yourself for good, it is not easy. It is very hard work but all doable from home and I am sure you can all sacrifice 7 days once in 6 months or a year.

 

After my SPA visit, I was back to the regular eating albeit in limitation, but still put on 2Kgs within 6 months. I started researching different diets, and after dismissing the fads and the complex diets, I was left again with basic common sense. Why not do what I did at the SPA and the various other SPAs I visited over the years? Why not research further and see what the experts say? Organic fruit and vegetable juices coupled with the full program of enemas / colon cleanses, yoga, meditation, liver cleanse, milk thistle, cod liver oil and a regular patter would then be come my secret weapon to weight loss and rebalancing my body.

So after that, the first thing I did was to start eliminating all white foods like bread, salt, pasta, pizza, fizzy drinks, sugar and generally all processed foods from my diet, and I returned to regular Yoga and Meditation. I was impressed by Dr. Wallace’s research on the impact of meditation on ageing. He found that among subjects with average chronological age of 50 years, those practising Transcendental Meditation, a mantra-based meditation, for over five years had a biological age 12 years younger than their chronological age.

In other words, a 50-year old meditator had the physiology of a 38 year old. Some subjects in Wallace’s study had a biological age, an astonishing 27 years younger than their chronological age.

Little by little, I began to shed the weight I had gained, but this time I improved my results by adopting my juice feast program and the results were positively encouraging. This time I lost 4kgs, my BMI went down 8% and my internal biological age went down by 2. It was 5 years above my real age when I first went on the program, lost that 5 years and put on 2 years after the program. So the net effect was still up. After this 2nd program after a year I lost another 3 years in the biological age and additional weight of 3.5kgs. I am now at my perfect BMI, and can still improve on the biological age which stands at 3 years below my real age. Mind-bending, eh?

Hey don’t worry, after the first 30days past the juice feast program, I still go back to having cheat days, whereby I eat and treat myself for being good that week. I still maintain the eat less and often policy and become realistic about we have one life so let’s live that too !

So what is the Magic Secret Program?

I learned about the different properties and nutrients of all foods especially organic fruits and vegetables, the impact they can have on your metabolism and overall health and wellbeing. For the past 2 years I then defined a body composition based diet and eating plan which can be found on www.shaktiholistic.com and look at the Dosha quiz and diet generator. This is an ancient system proven for 1,000s of years how everybody is based on certain elements like earth, wind, fire, water and space. Each of these are combined in everybody to make a Dosha and they are typically made of 1 element each like a pitta Dosha is made of fire+water. So if you think about it, one should eat foods to balance that element, with the other elements. Read more about that on  www.shaktiholistic.com.

So after that research, I began to structure my own “7-Day Body Rebalance and Detox Juice Feast” and had massive results with improved energy levels and the mind even more focused in every aspect of my life.

What’s different about my approach? It’s simple. Most diets are about fasting; depriving your body of calories, and eventually wind up making you even hungrier and the weight loss lasts temporarily. Try losing weight when you are starving all the time. Your body simply won’t allow it. Worse than that what actually happens is that the mind send signals to the internal cells saying “”no food for long time”” so it protects all the cells with fat as a means of protection from attack. This is called visceral fat and a high level of that creates all sorts of illnesses.

Hence, my “7-Day Body Rebalance and Detox Juice Feast” actually provides essential nutrients, oxygen (from the yoga and meditation, which no diet tell you about), purifies the blood by taking in green based veggie juices, detoxifies, and rejuvenates your body as you lose weight.  It actually helps to bring your body back into balance, and restores your energy. Here are some of the benefits of the

 “7-Day Body rebalance and Detox Juice Feast”:

 

  • Purifies and Alkalizes, hence less acid in the system (root cause to illnesses)
  • Improves digestion you eat less.
  • Regenerates the skin, feels fresher
  • Rebuilds and rejuvenates the body
  • Detoxification
  • Helps the mind focus on repairing the cells (as it stops to think of daily digestion)
  • Hydrates the body (as you will drink at least 1.5ltrs of water daily)
  • Restores balance of Missing Nutrients
  • Balances Your mind, body and soul
  • Hormones rebalanced
  • Regenerates cells, glands and organs (food will taste better afterwards and your sense of smell improves too)

Listen to a few of my clients – It’s Amazing

After trying the Mru Patel  7 Day Juice Feast program, I was very impressed and surprised by the results. I was expecting to be hungry and maybe lose a bit of weight.

After the second day my body had adjusted to consuming the raw vitamins and minerals in juice form and I was feeling great. I enjoyed preparing the juices and smoothies and even though it was hard to keep up I benefited largely from my morning yoga and meditation sessions. By the end of the week, my visceral fat went down by 1, BMI went down 1.5 ( over 7%), my internal body age went down by 3, and I lost 4.5kg in just 7 days!!

I feel so much calmer after the program, and have so much more energy. I have lost my cravings for certain foods and have incorporated more raw foods into my diet! I have passed the program onto my mother, sister and other relatives and they are doing it right now! Would recommend to all!!

Florentina Istrati, Romania

 

In May 2012 I decided to have a 1 week detox. This was very hard for me because I really enjoy solid food and deserts. I prepared the way Mru Patel told me today, slowly decreasing sugar and processed foods then shocking my body into absorbing all the nutrients. After 4 days I started to feel amazing, I was losing loose fat very easily around my stomach and face, and my digestive system felt much better even though I was hungry.

At the end of the week my weight was down 4kg and my morale was up 200%! I now use a 40% raw food diet and I never want to go back! I will be detoxing again same time next year ! Thanks Mru !

Laina, Romania

 

I have been a raw foodist for the past year, but after trying the week-long juice feast I have seen even more benefits to raw ingredients. Juicing lets the nutrients get into my system faster and have given me unbelievable levels of energy. My face has cleared up and my skin is glowing more than usual! I achieved my goals in losing 4kg and have met other life goals thanks to Mru Patel’s remote assistance. The detox was a fantastic experience and I will be repeating it over the holiday season!

Julia, Italy

 

The past couple of months have been very stressful on my body and therefore my overall energy and health has deteriorated . After Mru suggested his detox plan, I decided to give it a try and even though the first two days were hard, the following days were fantastic. I no longer had the fatigue that would cause me to lose focus and clarity, my sleeping patterns had returned to normality and by the end of the 8th day I was down 3kg. I am still having one fruit juice a day and my diet has changed completely to include more greens, 3 weeks after the end of the detox I am down 8kg and have never felt better! I definitely recommend this to everybody!

How does juice fasting help me detox?

The super nutritive properties abundant in the juices and supplements ensures the process of detoxification is greatly assisted for cleansing the bloodstream, tissues and cells. The alkalinity of the juices prevent the body becoming too acidic during fasting and speeds up the healing process. The minerals present in the juices flood the cells with oxygen enabling a more efficient detoxification and healing process.

 

How does losing weight help me detox?

Our body stores toxins and unwanted poisonous substances in our fat cells. During a juice fast normal calorie consumption is restricted and the body relies on reserved fat stores as an alternative energy source. The process of breaking down fat for energy releases stored toxins for excretion through the organs of elimination such as the kidneys, lungs, colon, liver and skin. Our detox lasts for 7 days and normally by day 3 or 4 of your detox, your weight loss will be well under way aiding the elimination of toxins.

 

How do colonics help me detox?

The colon is riddled with pockets , where waste collects. It is difficult for these pockets to be thoroughly clean because of the tricky angles they present and the large quantities of food that pass through the colon on a daily basis. But fasting allows for these pockets to have a spring clean. Cleansing the colon with water enhances the fasting process and speeds up detoxification enabling toxins to be expelled quicker than juice fasting alone.

 

How will raw food help me detox?

Raw food is a wonderful cleansing dietary regime due to the high level of nutrient dense plant foods consumed. Some individuals favour eating 80-100% raw as a healthy lifestyle choice. Its not uncommon for those switching to a raw diet to experience detox symptoms due to the cleansing/alkalising nature of the diet. When cooked meals are switched in favour of raw meals the body naturally has less toxicity to deal with, digestion is enhanced and the bowels function better leading to less constipation and a cleaner colon.

 

How will Personal Transformation help me detox?

Detoxification is a process that occurs physically in the body and also mentally in the mind. Emotional wellbeing can be hindered due to feelings such as fear, anger, anxiety, sadness and stress, creating toxic thoughts and negativity. These emotional imbalances can be held and stored deep within the body. Over time these feelings and emotions can manifest into something physical such as disease and illness.

Healing and NLP can help address any issues or emotional barriers that are causing a negative thought process or emotional sadness. Detoxing the mind on a emotional level is equally as important as detoxing the body on a physical level.

 

What do I do for the 30 days after the detox?

 Be sure that for the 30 days after your Juice Detox that you still upkeep a routine for your lifestyle that includes 1) hot water with lemon in the mornings, 2) yoga/meditation, 3) avoiding oily/fatty foods, and 4) physical activity.

Shakti Superfoods – Benefits

Posted on November 26, 2012 by shaktiholistichealthcare

 

Superfoods are a small category of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds that are very high in nutrients, vitamins & minerals and psytochemical content that have immense benefits on the body compared to normal everyday foods.

These foods are richer in benefits, have higher concentrations of anti-oxidants, and have much lower ‘negative’ properties such as food additives and saturated fats. One of the best examples of a superfood are blueberries, which have very low calorie content and are very high in anti-oxidants, dietary fiber, vitamin C and anthocynanins.

Learning about Ayurveda and Natural Herbs

Posted on November 26, 2012 by shaktiholistichealthcare

Ayurveda is perhaps the oldest system of health care in the world and originates from the Indian subcontinent.

Ayurveda is based on scientific principles of diagnosis and treatment. It differs from conventional medicine in the basic principles of investigation and assigning causes to processes rather than specific areas of physiology. Ayurveda has been a vogue since 5000 years ago. Our Vedas have been repeated references to the efficacy of Ayurveda as a science of healthy life. The western world is now realizing the value of Ayurveda in treating Chronic diseases like Arthritis, Paralysis, Stroke, Neurological disorders etc. Even WHO has given high rating for Ayurveda system.

It differs from conventional medicine in the basic principles of investigation and assigning causes to processes rather than specific areas of physiology. The increasing awareness of herbal medicines in Western markets such as USA, UK, Canada and Japan and the technological advancements in biotech industry were two major reasons which compelled us to offer a platform like this.

The key to the success of Ayurvedic herbs is the quality of the ingredients they use, the way in which formulae are based on ancient Ayurvedic traditions, a careful manufacturing process and an ongoing research program for testing and evaluating new and old products.

Ayurvedic Treatment

What if when someone is already ill ? It deals with internal medicine (kayachikitsa), surgery (Shalyachikitsa), Treating eye,ear,nose and throat (shalakyachikitsa), Pediatrics, gynecology and osterics treatment ( kaumarabhritya) and mental health (bhutavidya).

Body Elements & Constitution (Prakriti)

There are five elements of which the human body is made up of : akasha (ether), Vayu (air), Agni (Fire), Jala (Water) and Prithvi (earth).

Because of the above five elements, all human beings are constituted with a combination of two or three primary ones. Those are called body humours or Doshas: Kapha, Vata and Pitta. Any person is easy to treat with the identification of his/her category.

Vata category is combination of space and air elements : People are fearful, illogical and insecure. Skin is dry. They have thin hair. They have dark brown or grey eyes. Vata activates the nervous system, hearing and speech and the persons is a great enthusiast with creativity. However, the state of his mind gets imbalanced easily because of which he gets diseases like insomnia, cramps and constipation.Pitta category is fire element : These people are achievers, intellectual, fiery, angry, judgemental, with clear voice and precise expression. They have soft and fine hair. Eyes are blue, grey and hazel. They are good leaders and warm personality when healthy. Because of emphasis on metabolism and anger, they suffer from acidity, ulcers and rashes and also thinning of hair occurs.

Kapha category is(water and earth element : They have thick lustrous hair. Eyes are blue or brown. People have great endurance capacity with calm and steady mind. They are capable of forgiveness and intense love. Sometimes they are greedy and possessive. Kapha is the lubricant that keeps the joints working, keeps the body vibrant and balanced with immunity. Too much of it leads to lethargy, congestion, allergies and weight gain.

Nature of ailments

After the Prakriti is decided, one should know the nature of the diseases(Vikriti). It is imbalance obviously, but there are tow extremes to every imbalance, either deficiency or excess. Those are heavy-light, slow-sharp, cold-hot, unctuous-dry, smooth-rough, solid-liquid, soft-hard, stable-mobile, subtle-gross, and non-slimmy-slimmy. When corrected, Prakriti or original constitution is restored.

These 20 characteristics that with regards to one’s basic constitution will decide the treatment. These may be caused by wrong foods causing improper digestion, wrong sleeping habits, improper mindset, anxiety etc.

The other type of ailment is clogging or blockage (Ama) for life energy to circulate for vitality. When this is corrected, it produces energy, perfect immunity, physical strength and hence a general sense of bliss which is summarised in Ayurveda in one word called Ojas.

Some Herbs and MineralsMalabar nut : bronchitis, asthema, boosting immune systemsBael : Digestive systemGarlic : lipids and cholesterolAsparagus : Female reproductive system and lactationAloe Vera : Hair and skin treatmentNeem : blood purifier and anti-fungal treatment

Ayurvedic Herbs

Here are some Important Herbs and their Uses:

Ashwagandha ( Withania Somnifera), ( Winter Cherry): Traditionally, Ashwagandha has been used in many ways–as a sedative, a diuretic, a rejuvenating tonic, an anti-inflammatory agent, and as an “adaptogen” (endurance enhancer). Many Western herbalists refer to this herb as “Ayurvedic ginseng” because of its reputation for increasing energy, strength, and stamina, and for its ability to relieve stress. It is especially beneficial in stress related disorders such as arthritis, hypertension, diabetes, general debility, etc. It has also shown impressive results when used as stimulants for the immune system.

Amla ( Emblica officinalis), ( Indian Goosebery): Amla contains the highest amount of Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid), Phyllembin, Phyllemblic acid, Gallic acid, Ellagic acid in natural form and Cytokin like substance identified as Zeatin, Zriboside, Z nucleotide, Tannins 30%. It is one of the strongest rejuvenatives in Indian pharmacopoeia. It contains 30 times the amount of Vitamin C found in oranges. Its antibacterial, carminative, hypoglycemic, stomachic, Hypotensive and astringent action prevents infection, helps in healing of ulcers, treatment of jaundice, dyspepsia and cough and controls hyperacidity. Alma is a good Cardio Tonic and its mild stimulant action on heart helps to control blood pressure. The use of Indian Gooseberry enhances the antidiabetic action of Karela. Phyllanthus Emblica is a very good hair tonic.

Brahmi (Bacopa Monniera): Aside from increasing intellectual and cognitive function, Brahmi induces a sense of calm and peace in its users. It is unique in its ability to invigorate mental processes whilst reducing the effects of stress and nervous anxiety. This makes Brahmi extremely applicable in highly stressful work or study environments where clarity of thought is as important as being able to work under pressure. Many people have the intelligence to perform to strict standards, but lack the composure and self-confidence to reach them. Additionally, Brahmi helps soothe the restlessness and distraction that nervousness causes. Brahmi is ideal for students and workers faced with this problem.

Shallaki ( Boswellia Serrata): Today its major use is as an anti-inflammatory agent for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, low back pain, myositis, fibrositis, and osteoarthritis. Experimental and clinical usage of boswella indicates it has none of the side effects on blood pressure, heart rate of the gastric irritation and ulcers associated with many anti-inflammatory and antiarthritic drugs. It is now an approved herbal medicine in India for use against osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, soft tissue rheumatism, low back pain, myositis and fibrositis. In the United States,physicians are giving boswella high marks for effectiveness. Dr. E. W. McDonagh, a Kansas City physician, has reported success among some 350 patients suffering from a variety of advanced muscular and skeletal conditions for which other treatments had failed to help.

Karela ( Bitter Gourd), ( Bitter Melon), ( Momordica charantia) : Bitter Melon, also known as Karela, Momordica Charantia or Bitter Gourd is a herb that helps regulate blood sugar levels and keeps body functions operating normally. It contains Gurmarin, a polypeptide considered to be similar to bovine insulin, which has been shown in experimental studies to achieve a positive sugar regulating effect by suppressing the neural response to sweet taste stimuli. Karela’s principle constituents are lectins, charantin and momordicine. The fruits have long been used in India as a folk remedy for diabetes mellitus. Lectins from the bitter gourd have shown significant antilipolytic and lipogenic activities.

Shilajit (Asphaltum) : This is Shilajit, one of Ayurvedas most potent and unique rejuvenatives. The ancient medical literature attributes many health benefits to Shilajit known as “conqueror of mountains and destroyer of weakness.” It has been said that there is hardly any curable disease which cannot be assisted with the aid of Shilajit. Shilajit has been used historically for general physical strengthening, anti-aging, blood sugar stabilization, libido, injury healing, urinary tract rejuvenation, enhanced brain functioning potency, bone healing, kidney rejuvenation, immune system Strengthening, arthritis, hypertension, obesity and many other application for numerous conditions.

Garlic ( Lasuna), ( Allium sativum): The platelet and hypolipidemic activities of Lasuna ensures smooth coronary function. Garlic is regarded as one of the most effective remedies to lower blood pressure. The pressure and tension are reduced because it has the power to ease the spasm of the small arteries. It also slows the pulse and modifies the heart rhythm, besides relieving the symptoms of dizziness, shortness of breath and the formation of gas within the digestive track. It has an antiseptic effect and is an excellent remedy for infectious diseases and inflammations of the stomach and intestine. Human population studies show that eating garlic regularly reduces the risk of esophageal, stomach, and colon cancer. This is partly due to garlic’s ability to reduce the formation of carcinogenic compounds.

Triphala: Triphala, a cornerstone of ayurvedic medicine, is a composite herbal preparation containing equal proportions of the fruits of three myrobalans, Emblica officinalis, Terminalia chebula and Terminalia bellirica. When consumed for a long period, it helps reduce excess weight. It promotes good colon health and acts as a laxative without causing cramps or irritation. It gently stimulates the intestinal walls and restores tone to the colon, thus helping in the elimination process, providing a colon cleansing effect. When consumed for a long period, it helps reduce excess weight. It promotes good colon health and acts as a laxative without causing cramps or irritation. It gently stimulates the intestinal walls and restores tone to the colon, thus helping in the elimination process, providing a colon cleansing effect.

Guggulu: ( Bedellium), ( COMMIPHORA MUKUL): Studies show that a 14-27% of LDL cholesterol and 22-30% of triglycerides levels were reduced when guggul was given to men and women with high cholesterol for 12 weeks with no change in diet or exercise. Research with laboratory animals suggests guggul may help enhance thyroid function. Since the thyroid gland produces hormones that are needed to regulate metabolism, it can help in weight loss. Studies show guggul may change thyroid hormone metabolism, increase levels of circulating T3, or triiodothyroxine, a thyroxine metabolite known to raise overall metabolism, which in turn increases fat burning. Since guggul supports atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), which may impede blood flow to and from the penis, guggul may possibly be the treatment for impotence many men are looking for.

Tulsi ( Holy Basil), ( Tulasi): Tulsi has antioxidant properties, and helps boost the body’s ability to fight off damaging free radicals, which have been linked to disease and aging. It is an adaptogen that helps the body fight the effects of ongoing stress and also balances the mind, nerves and emotions. Tulsi maintains the health of the throat chest and lungs. In fact, it helps protect the entire respiratory tract. It is an anti-inflammatory. A herb that promotes optimum respiratory support. Tulasi has antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, expectorant properties and is useful in respiratory tract infections. It helps during respiratory stress.

Neem (AZADIRACHTA INDICA): Neem effectively kills the bacteria that cause Acne and studies prove that Neem will reduce inflammation, even the inflammation produced by Acne. In the case of eczema clinical studies demonstrate that even the application of weaker Neem leaf extracts effectively cured acute conditions of eczema, what to speak of the fresh cold pressed oil with its high concentration of active ingredients.Modern clinical studies have identified a number of compounds in the Neem tree that effectively regulate immune system functions. Whether drinking a simple cup of tea out of the leaves or taking extracts of the Neem leaf, Neem significantly and consistently reduced insulin requirements for nonkeytonic, insulin fast, and insulin sensitive forms of Diabetes.The pain, inflammation, and swelling of the joints in arthritis can be greatly reduced by different compounds in Neem

Arjuna (TERMINALIA ARJUNA): Arjun improves cardiac muscle function and pumpingactions of the heart. Scientific studies have shown Arjun to be very effectivewhen used regularly over a period of time for the treatment of angina, coronary artery disease, heart failure, edema, and possibly hypercholesterolemia. Studies have also shown Arjun to have positive effects in the treatment of gonorrhea. Externally, this herb has been used to treat acne, blemishes, wounds, dysentery, and diarrhea.

20 Dieting Success Tips (Part 2 11-20)

Posted on December 13, 2011 by shaktiholistichealthcare

SUCCESS TIP NO. 11: EAT YOUR LARGER MEALS EARLY AND SMALLER MEALS LATER

Facebook.com/ShaktiRaw


You will feel better and lose weight quicker if you eat a large breakfast and eat a smaller dinner. You may also want to eat the majority of your carbs earlier in the day, saving a salad and lean meat protein for dinner.

Eating larger meals during the part of the day when you are most active will help you to feel satisfied throughout the day and curb cravings for unhealthy snacks.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 12: CONSIDER EATING SALMON OR MACKREL FOR BREAKFAST

Yes this may seem odd, but it is one way to work in Omega-3 fatty acids that are good for you and add some variety to your daily diet. After a few months you may tire of eating eggs and bacon for breakfast. Substituting fish will give you the protein and healthy fish oils you need.

You can try canned salmon or mackerel in croquettes for a healthier sausage substitute. Or you could simply eat cold leftover salmon the next morning with dill sauce.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 13: USE LETTUCE LEAVES INSTEAD OF BREAD

This tip can seem a bit odd at first but if you try it you will probably grow to love it. Instead of eating breads and buns with your sandwiches and hamburgers, why not try leaves of lettuce?

You can make a double cheeseburger with onions, pickles and tomato wrapped in a whole lettuce leaf. Or you can make tasty wrap sandwiches with lettuce instead of tortilla and bread.

This will help increase your good carb and fiber intake while giving you more variety in your diet.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 14: EAT A FRUIT DESSERT

Okay, we all want a little dessert sometime, but how do you have your dessert and your low-carb diet too? Why not try cheese with fruit slices or berries? Better yet, why not try cream with berries? You could even try sweet pineapples or strawberries with cottage cheese?

Berries are sweet and high in fiber and nutrients and dairy products are high in protein. If your low-carb plan will allow it, this is a sweet and tasty alternative to more sugary desserts.

An added benefit is that the protein in the dairy products and the fiber in the fresh fruit will make these desserts more filling.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 15: GET YOUR FRUIT FRESH NOT SQUEEZED

Fruit juice can be very tempting as a replacement for soda, but just how healthy is fruit juice? If you read the labels you will soon realize that in many of the commercial juices available at your local grocery store there is very little actual fruit juice.

What you will find is lots of sugar water and other ingredients. Why not skip the juice altogether and eat a fresh piece of fruit? Not only does fresh fruit contain less sugar than juice, fresh fruit has fiber that is good for you and will help you feel fuller longer.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 16: GO EASY ON THE MEAL REPLACEMENTS

New meal replacement shakes and bars go on the market almost every day. These shakes and bars may claim to be healthy, but almost all of them, even the Zone Perfect bars, contain hydrogenated oil and sweeteners.

So be careful. The bars especially may be only slightly healthier than a Snickers candy bar. Occasionally, they may not be that bad for you but as a rule you probably don’t want to indulge in a meal replacement shake or bar every day.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 17: IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE IT PROBABLY IS

Low carb doughnuts and muffins? You can find these prepackaged low-carb labeled goods at your neighborhood grocery store and at many low-carb lifestyle specialty shops. That does not mean that you should make a habit out of eating them.

While low-carb pastries may be tempting remember that they still contain all of the usual carbohydrate suspects: sugar or a sugar substitute and flour.

They may be healthier than your typical muffin as an occasional treat, but remember to stick with the basics for continued low-carb success.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 18: AT THE GROCERY STORE – SHOP THE OUTER AISLES

It will be easier to stick with your low-carb lifestyle if you learn the one common thread in all grocery store designs: the healthy foods are on the perimeter aisles.

Think about it, when you go into the grocery all of the healthy stuff, fruits, vegetables, meats, and dairy products are arranged around the stores walls. You only rarely need to enter the center aisle areas in those few stores that stock butter and cheese in the center near the frozen foods. For the most part all of the foods that you need for your low carb diet can be found on the perimeter of the grocery store.

Train yourself to start on one end of the outer aisle and work your way around. It will be much easier to avoid carb cravings and fill your basket with healthy items if you do so.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 19: INVEST IN GOOD COOKBOOKS

Can’t figure out what to eat? Need some variety in your diet? Turn to a cookbook. Granted, not all recipes in a cookbook are low-carb fare, but you will be surprised at the number of low-carb and low-carb friendly recipes you can find in your standard Betty Crocker Cookbook.

Cookbooks are great reference tools that often contain handy tips on purchasing cuts of meat and preparing meats, fruits and vegetables in new and exciting ways.

Plus, new low-carb cookbooks are hitting the shelves all the time. So be sure to take advantage of these resources to try something new, different and delicious.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 20: TAKE A GOOD MULTIVITAMIN

We can’t all do it right all of the time. Even the most conscientious food combiner may miss some healthy vitamins, minerals and trace elements in their diets. To help make sure you get everything that you need, consider taking a good multivitamin.

Check with your doctor first for recommendations and you should be tested for anemia to see if you need a vitamin with iron. However, the longer you eat low-carb and the more red meat you eat, the less anemia will be a problem and you should be able to take vitamins with less iron.

Your success is totally up to you. Assuming that you are an otherwise healthy individual, your body will do its part. Just remember to adhere to the low-carb diet plan that is right for you and add some variety to your meals to help you stay faithful to your health and weight loss goals.

20 Dieting Success Tips (Part 1 1-10)

Posted on December 7, 2011 by shaktiholistichealthcare

Dieting is not easy. If it were, we would probably all be thin. Since we are not, here are some tips that successful people use to lose weight so that others can benefit, too.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 1:

DRINK 8-10 GLASSES OF WATER EACH DAY

Okay, for many people this is a big problem. Water doesn’t taste all that great generally because water doesn’t really taste like anything. Drinking water 8 to 10 times each day gets easier the more you actually do it. It is simply a matter of conditioning your taste buds, and yourself, so that it becomes easier to do. Once you get started, you will begin to crave water.

To begin with, you should drink a glass of water in the morning first thing, before you eat. This is probably the easiest glass you will drink all day and it will help you remember to drink water all day long. Better yet, why not drink two glasses?

If you really cannot bear the taste of water, try using a water purifying pitcher or filter. You can also add a few drops of lemon or lime to your water but no sugar or sweetener! Ice also helps.

Check out flavored waters on the market, too. Just keep an eye out for additives.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 2: EAT BREAKFAST

Do not skip breakfast. If you need to go to bed a little earlier so that you can get up 20 minutes earlier each morning do it! Breakfast is so important to your good health and to weight control. According to Dr. Barbara Rolls a professor of nutrition at Penn State University, “Your metabolism slows while you sleep, and it doesn’t rev back up until you eat again.”

Eating breakfast is not only good for overall weight loss, it will help you stay on track with your diet the rest of the day. You are more likely to binge on something sweet and in the bread group if you skip breakfast.

You can always keep a couple of hard-boiled eggs in the fridge or some high-fiber, low starch fruit around. If you plan to eat fruit at all during the day, breakfast is the perfect time to do it.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 3: EAT AT LEAST 3 MEALS AND 2 SNACKS EACH DAY

This can be one of the hardest adjustments to make. After all, you are busy! You already have a full-plate. When do you have time to worry about filling your plate with more frequent meals?

Just like eating breakfast will increase your metabolism, so will eating more often. This will also help you curb your bad-carb intake by making sure that your snacks are planned and occur regularly throughout the day.

Really, it will just take a minimal investment of planning time at the grocery store and at home each morning before you head out for the day to make some healthy food choices and prepare a few healthy snacks and meals. For suggestions, just see the handy list of snacks and appetizers listed later.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 4: AVOID WHITE FOODS

This is one easy way to remember what not to eat. If it is made from sugar, flour, potatoes, rice or corn – just say no. Remembering this rule of thumb will make it easier to recognize those rice cakes as an unhealthy high-carb snack.

Always look for colorful fruits and veggies to substitute for the white ones. Buy broccoli, lettuce, bell peppers, green beans and peas, brown rice in moderation, leafy greens like kale and spinach, apples, melons, oranges and grapes.

These foods are not only colorful they are also high in fiber, nutrients and important antioxidants. Eating colorful fruits and vegetables will give your diet variety as well as give you added health benefits.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 5: EAT YOUR VEGGIES

It is so easy to use a low-carb diet as an excuse for poor nutrition. Resist this temptation. If the only vegetable you have eaten in the last 5 years has been the potato, now is a good time to begin experimenting with other vegetables. This is important for your overall health and to avoid some nasty side effects of not getting enough fiber in your diet.

Delicious Raw Foods!


If you try hard enough, you will find vegetables that you enjoy eating. Experiment with grilling veggies and cooking with real butter to add flavor. You can also search for new recipes on the Internet or in cookbooks.

Remember, if you are only eating 40 grams of carb a day or less, two cups of plain salad greens contain only about 5 grams of carbohydrate. You have no excuse not to eat your veggies.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 6: PREPARE YOUR OWN FOOD AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE

While more and more restaurants are offering low-carb friendly menu items, many of them are still not ideal low-carb fare. There are many recipes for quick and easy meals that you can prepare yourself at home. Try to do this as often as possible.

If you cook your own foods, you know exactly what the contents are and you will be able to better control for hidden sugar and otherwise processed foods.

Another benefit is the cost savings over the long run. Even if you must go to the grocery store more often, you will save a significant amount per meal as opposed to eating at restaurants and fast food establishments.

It will also be easier to maintain your diet with your own favorite fresh food selections on hand.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 7: INVEST IN A GOOD SET OF FOOD STORAGE CONTAINERS

Having food storage containers of various sizes on hand will make it so much easier for you to plan your meals and snacks. When you buy nuts, fruits and vegetables in bulk you can simply prepare, separate and store them for easy use later.

For instance, you can pre-slice your apples and snack on them over several days. Simply cut them, rinse them in pineapple or lemon juice and store. This will make a quick and easy snack for later.

Fix your lunch and take it with you to work. Better yet, fix your lunch and 2 snacks for work.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 8: EAT SOME PROTIEN AT EACH MEAL & AS A SNACK

In addition to everything that’s been discussed before, eating protein helps you burn more calories. Jeff Hample, Ph.D., R.D., a spokesman for the American Dietetic Association says that, “Protein is made up mainly of amino acids, which are harder for your body to breakdown, so you burn more calories getting rid of
them.

Just think eating a protein rich snack can help you lose weight. How about a few slices of turkey or ham or some string cheese?

Eating protein will also help you feel full so that you are less likely to crave unhealthy snacks.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 9: DRINK A GLASS OF WATER AFTER EACH SNACK

This will help you get in your 8 to 10 glasses of water each day but it can also have other benefits. Ever feel hungry after eating a handful or standard serving of nuts? Try drinking water afterwards. The water will help you feel full and prevent overindulgence.

Drinking water after a snack will also help remove the aftertaste from your mouth and can help curb your desire for more.

SUCCESS TIP NO. 10: EAT SLOWLY & ENJOY YOUR FOOD

You will feel full and more satisfied if you take the time to savor your food and chew it slower. Don’t get in the habit of eating while standing or eating quickly. Sit down and chew.

Eating slower will help you enjoy your food more, pay attention to what it is you are actually eating and get a better sense of when you are actually full.

The A-Z Of Motivation

Posted on July 26, 2011 by shaktiholistichealthcare

Pain may sometimes be the reason why people change. Getting bad grades make you realize that you need to study. Debts remind you of your inability to look for a source of income. Being humiliated gives you the ‘push’ to speak up and fight for yourself to save your face from the next embarrassment. It may be a bitter experience, a friend’s tragic story, a great movie, or an inspiring book that will help you to get up and get just the right amount of motivation you need in order to improve yourself.

Do We Know What to Eat and What Not to Eat?

Posted on July 5, 2011 by shaktiholistichealthcare

Nutrition affects not only the condition of our bodies, but also, and perhaps more importantly, our minds. The food we eat keeps our bodies in good shape and working efficiently.  It provides energy, strengthens our immune system and improves our minds.  Although many people shun fat and meat, it has been established that they are of great importance to the brain;  and this fact must be carefully considered.
There are still many misconceptions about nutrition, e.g., vitamins help to lose weight; enzymes burn fat; weight gain is due to fatty foods, so diet foods are the solution; obesity is connected only to food, and so on. Instead of relying on oversimplified generalizations, it is important to devise a moderate diet from all food groups, including proteins and animal products, because they remove toxins from the intestines and supply the body with natural vitamins and minerals.
