So many diet
formulae are doing the round these days- from the now passé Atkins diet, the
once very popular General Motors diet, the only- fruit diet, the only-
vegetable diet, the gluten-free diet, the only- liquids diet to all other diets
recommended by every Tom Dick or Harry, or if you prefer every Dhruv, Rohit or
Raghav. All these well meaning suggestions of so called friends and well
wishers do nothing for your self esteem but make you want to dig a deeper hole
in which you can hide your burgeoning bulge from the cruel world. When one
wonders and stops to think for a moment, one is always prompted to ask the
question as to why none of these diets have ever been considered to be the sure
fire way of keeping off the kilos permanently and forever staying in shape?
The answer
my friends, is not “blowin in the wind” as the famous song goes, but is
certainly staring at us in the face. The answer is so simple and so easy to
implement that anyone who adopts it is on the way to a much lighter, healthier
and shapely self for all times to come. We
know from childhood that all the food groups like proteins,
carbohydrates, fats, minerals , vitamins etc. are essential for our bodies to
be able to build, repair and function in an optimal manner.
To this end,
is it necessary to burden our digestive system with chemicals, ready-to-eat
food supplements or energy drinks? The answer is a firm NO. We have to
consciously cut from our diet all the food which is full of empty calories. We
are fortunate that we have with us a friend to help us do this with ease.
This
friend is the Dabur Honey and the Dabur Honey Diet- a diet which is virtually a
life saver and wonderful to use in this hot and humid monsoon season when the heavy
air is difficult to breathe in due to the excessive heat and humidity. The
result is that one tends to drink gallons of soft drinks and colas to quench
the enormous thirst pangs (literally!). No need for this anymore, for now you
have a trusted friend like Dabur Honey to save you and make you healthier and
shapely.
The efficacy
of this friend has been known in our country for ages. Our ancestors also knew
its benefits as seen from the fact that a drop of honey is put on a newborn
babe’s tongue. Another age-old secret is to start your day with a spoonful of
honey in a glass of tepid water for a healthy start to your day – a sweet start
to your journey of losing weight.
Sugar
just has empty calories and no health benefits whereas honey, besides having
vitamins and minerals also has antioxidants and lesser calories. Not only are
the natural sugar and carbohydrates in honey easy to digest but also help our
digestive system to work better. Your sore throat and cold can also be kept at
bay with honey-any day better than chemical drugs with their side effects.
Many
other tips can be found at http://www.daburhoney.com which gives you all the
information you need to maximize the benefits of honey and the way it can be
used in your diet. This, coupled with the maxim that you stick to small
portions and have food from all the food groups i.e. a balanced diet, besides
going for a forty minutes walk everyday will solve your weight problem. These
will be such lifestyle changes and choices which will stand you in good stead for
all times to come and you will then realize that a crash diet can never ever give
the nutrition your body needs, which a controlled balanced and well thought out
diet can.
