Who wants a quick fix diet that doesn't last forever?

At Mohr Results, we focus on everything yous SHOULD eat and include when trying to lose belly fat … and even when just trying to be the All-time physically and mentally.

And then today we're talking about 3 nutrients you lot're not eating enough of and just how you tin can eat more than, through real foods, since no 1 thinks in terms of "eating nutrients."

Vitamin D

I recently talked with i of the leading vitamin D experts in the unabridged earth…and it solidified my belief in vitamin D more ever!!!

Why all the recent "noise" about this vitamin?  It'southward been shown to help:

* musculus strength
* amend bone health
* potentially play a role in reducing type ane and 2 diabetes
* slash fat loss
* cancer prevention
* Alzheimer's
* arthritis
* decreasing falls with elderly
* subtract inflammatory issues
* And much, much more.

Our bodies brand vitamin D from sunlight, but most people don't get out enough … or when we do, we slather our bodies in suntan lotion so sun has no hazard to hit our skin (I'm not saying don't use sunblock, by the way).

Believe it or not, Vitamin D deficiency is starting to resurface.  This skilful I spoke with, Dr. Robert Heaney, said his data advise 60-98% of teenage girls are deficient…

The trouble is it is difficult to become from foods — milk is fortified, canned and wild salmon are good options, sardines, anchovies, egg yolks, liver, and only a few other foods provide decent quantities.  Unfortunately you lot're probably non licking your lips thinking of sardines, washed down with a prissy glass of milk, are you?  Me neither.

And so what should we do?

First, side by side time y'all get to your doctor, have them measure blood levels of Vitamin D — experts seem to suggest that levels should be at least xl ng/dL for optimal health.  At Mohr Results, our goal is not to only eat enough to prevent malnutrition, just rather aim to optimize health.

And this is one food it might be wise to add as a supplement (1000 IU'south/day, unless your health care provider tells you differently).  Of course do try to include some of those foods, besides, because you go other powerful nutrients in addition to D when eating whole foods.  A favorite product of ours is Nordic Naturals Ultimate-Omega with D (high concentration of omega-3′s + k IU's of vitamin D).  A true win win.  Of course this is in conjunction with a bang-up multifariousness of foods that provide loads of other nutrients too.

Omega-3 Fats

This one probably won't surprise you lot.  Information technology all started when scientists realized Eskimo'southward had an incredibly low rate of heart disease, yet ate a diet that was virtually 70% fat.  When they realized where the fat came from (primarily seal, which are high in omega iii′s), the wheels started turning.

Now, over 15,000 scientific studies afterward, voila!  We've got a winner on our easily!

The American Center Association suggests eating at 12 oz of fatty fish per week (such equally salmon, tuna, sea bass, etc).  Fish is the best source of omega-3 fats, but without getting into technical details, yous tin as well get omega-iii′south from other foods, such as walnuts, almonds, and flax seed/oil.  They're non exactly the same, fifty-fifty though they're all under the "omega-3 umbrella."  Simply all are a salubrious part of the diet and you should exist eating more of them!  If you lot're allergic, well, then stick with vegetarian sources of omega-3′s.

Why should yous care?

Some of the benefits of omega-3′due south are like to those listed above for Vitamin D.

* potentially burn abdomen fat
* improves pare
* cancer risk reduction
* reduce the take chances or progression of Alzheimer's
* slow progression of arthritis
* decrease inflammatory problems
* Subtract the take a chance of centre disease

Now if all those benefits above don't print you, nothing will.

Swallow more vitamin D.  Eat more omega-3′s.  Notice salmon is a skilful source of both.  So are sardines and anchovies, but I bet you're more likely to eat the salmon.

Cobweb

Nigh American's eat an average of 10 grams of fiber each solar day.

It's recommended that nosotros get twenty-35 grams.

There'due south plainly a disconnect.

Here's how to exercise it.

Replace all junk carbs — you know, the ones that increase abdomen fat FAST — with cobweb filled carbs.  Fruits.  Veggies.  Grains.  If a carbohdyrate DOESN'T accept 3 or more grams of fiber PER SERVING — toss it.  If it has more than 10 grams of sugar.  Toss it.  Deal?  In an platonic world, you'd get About of your carb intake from fruits and veggies, each mean solar day.  Trust me, yous'll feel like a new person.

And why should y'all intendance?

* keeps blood sugar stable — this helps with free energy and storage of body fat
* Controls appetite
* Keeps you regular

All those sound good to me!  Simply as an aside, add fiber slowly … otherwise your spouse, co workers, and friends may no longer want you lot around.
