And yet some of the women always appear healthy and as well as thin while never seeming to be feed into these crazy diet fads, or even the dieting at all! To find out how they – The Skinny Women – do it all.
1. DON'T tie YOURSELF
Monday 21 March 2016
Many of the celebrities stick to the juice in the run up to awards season to ensure a flawless appearance but you for a common people don’t have to have a Hollywood budget to achieve the same type of glowing look - it is better to try raiding your fridge and fruit basket instead. You don’t even have to juice them either – having them whole will have the same benefits.
Fruits
You’ll have to be troubled finding a skincare regime that doesn’t include at least one vitamin C product. This is because the vitamin C helps prompt the growth and repair of tissues in the body – particularly in the skin. Of course, it’s common knowledge that oranges contain lot of vitamin C but where else can you get it from? Blueberries, blackcurrants, strawberries are all good sources, as well as the more exotic guava and papaya fruits also a good source. All of these fruits also help to produce collagen – this is a vital ingredient to help battle wrinkles.
Tomatoes are often fall between the fruit and the vegetable categories but are actually classed as a fruit, and this contain a healthy dose of vitamin C as well. “Tomatoes also work well as a natural sun protection as they have a very high antioxidant content,” Janey Lee Grace, author of Look Great Naturally Without Ditching the Lipstick, told Cover Media. Try to adding some tomato to a healthy fruit salad in the morning – it might sound unusual but, it’s delicious!
The pineapple is another good fruit one to try. “Not only is it high in vitamin C but it also contains bromelain, an kind of enzyme which helps keep skin soft and supple,” Janey added.
Vegetables/plants
It is clear you might be surprised to know that one of the best ingredients to help clear skin can be found at the bottom of the garden – nettles! You can have the nettle tea or even take them in capsule form but whichever way you choose to add them to your diet, you can be sure you’ll notice a difference. They have an anti-inflammatory effect which is fantastic for acne or eczema sufferers, as well as containing antioxidants – fantastic for the skin and system.
Avocado is also another good option, as it contains a host of healthy fats and oils to help maintain skin radiance. It also contains that vital ingredient a person need, vitamin E, to help support skin growth.
Off course the leafy green vegetables are incredibly good for you, not only because they are low in calories but high in protein – making them to perfect for weight loss - but are also high in beta carotene meaning they can help with reducing the appearance of the wrinkles.
And over all red and yellow peppers are another anti-ageing secret ingredient as they contain the antioxidants carotenoids. Studies in the past have shown that women who eat green and yellow vegetables on a regular basis have less wrinkles than those who don’t take these. So if you want to a line-free complexion, you head to the veggie aisle and stock up on some peppers!
How sleeping late in night makes you fat
People with a healthy BMI who go for sleep between 7am and 11pm eat less than those people who go to bed between 11pm and 3am, according to researchers found that.
Going for a sleep after 11pm may be linked to eating more food and higher in calories, new figures have revealed out.
Interestingly and more specifically,people those who bedded down at around 9:30pm ate 220 fewer calories the next day that those who went for bed at 2:30am.
This data was compiled from users of fitness tracking app which documents the behaviors such as sleep as well as heart rate.
Most the data also showed that Jawbone users who reported being overweight or obese based on their BMIs were more likely to be log eating more calories if they went to the bed between 10pm and 2am.
All the data analysts at the fitness app believe that sleeping may make people feel less hungry, or encourage them to eat food low in calories.
The researchers made the findings by analysing data from hundreds of thousands of Jawbone UP users all over the world. A user’s total hours of sleep, average bedtime, age, gender, BMI, and food entries were also considered - taking it into account the fact that people can underestimate what they consume.
Early birds, people who slept between 7pm and 11pm overall ate more vegetables, fruit, high-fibre carbohydrates such as oatmel, lean proteins and fats from unprocessed sources such as nuts.
Night owls, however, were more likely to drink caffeine and alcohol, refined sugars including honey, processed carbohydrates such as bread, processed meats, and saturated fats such cheese and the butter.
The analysts cautioned that the study reflected a link between sleep and food only, but as well as said that this may not be the cause.
On the same time it is also important to note that people those who use tracking apps are more likely to be from a demographic which is already health-conscious.
The research has mirrors peer-reviewed scientific studies which shown the link between lack of sleep and the weight gain.
This findings comes after a study by researchers at the University of Chicago found that getting too little sleep may trigger the same part of the brain that gives marijuana users the urge to eat, also known as the munchies.
Researchers has found that restricting sleep affects the chemical pathways which regulate hunger and pleasure.

what are the 12 super foods for Diabetes
what do you think can controlling your blood sugar levels and preventing diabetes complications be as simple as eating the right foods? Yes. some of the certain foods are packed with nutrients that stabilize the blood sugar levels, protect your heart, even save your vision from damaging effects of diabetes. These are the 12 foods can give you an extra edge against the diabetes and its complications.
1. Apples
In Finnish study, men who ate the most apples and other foods high in quercetin had 20 percent less diabetes and heart disease deaths. Other good sources of quercetin are onions, tomatoes, leafy green vegetables.

2. Cinnamon
A study at the Human Nutrition Research Center in Beltsville, Maryland, found that if you use ½ teaspoon of cinnamon daily, it can make cells more sensitive to insulin. Therefore, the study says, the cells convert blood sugar to energy.

After 40 days of taking various amount of cinnamon extract, diabetics experienced not only lower blood sugar spikes after eating, but the major improvements in signs of heart health. And you can sprinkle cinnamon on just about anything.
3. Citrus Fruit
Studies show that people with diabetes tend to have lower levels of vitamin C in their bodies, so antioxidant-packed citrus fruit is great snack choice. It may seem quicker to get C from pill, but since fruit is low in fat, high in fiber, and delivers lots of other healthy nutrients, it's a better choice.

4. Cold-Water Fish
the heart disease strikes people with diabetes twice as often as it does people without illness, according to the American Diabetes Association. Diets high in omega-3 fatty acids—the "good fat" in cold-water fish such as wild Alaskan salmon, sardines, and Atlantic mackerel—can help lower artery-clogging LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while raising levels of HDL (good) cholesterol.

5. Fiber-Rich Foods
Study at the University Texas Southwestern Medical Center found that people who increased their fiber intake from 24 to 50 g daily had dramatic improvements in blood sugar levels. In fact, the high-fiber diet was as effective as some diabetes medications.

Rather than try to figure exactly how much fiber is in different foods, focus on trying to get total of 13 daily servings of a mixture of fruits, vegetables, beans, brown rice, and whole grain pastas, cereals, and breads.
6. Legumes
Legumes of all sorts—chickpeas, cannelloni beans, kidney beans, and lentils—are great addition to soups, salads, and a variety of ethnic dishes. And this low-fat, low-calorie, high-fiber, high-protein food helps to reduce risk of diabetes and heart disease. The fiber slows the release of glucose into your bloodstream, which prevents the blood sugar spikes that worsen diabetes blood sugar control and make you feel hungry.

7. Green Tea
The studies show that chronic inflammation—caused by high-fat foods, lack of exercise, and eating too few fruits, vegetables, and good fats—can increase risk of the hearts attacks and thwart body's ability to absorb blood sugar. A simple solution: Drink green tea and orange or cranberry juice. They're packed with all the flavonoids—powerful inflammation-fighters. Swap one in for one cup of coffee in a day.

8. Nuts
The studies show that people who eat nuts regularly have lower the rates of heart disease than people who don't eat nuts. (People with diabetes are at increased risk of heart disease.) Even among the healthiest eaters, the ones who also eat nuts boast the best health record. Exactly why isn't known yet, but one reason could be compounds called tocotrienols.

Key to eating the nuts is not to eat too many; they're so high in calories that you could easily see the aftermath pouring over your pants. Either measure 2 tablespoons of nuts, count how many it is, and limit yourself to that number, or keep a jar of chopped nuts on hand. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons a day on cereal, yogurt, veggies, salads, or wherever the flavor appeals to you.
9. Spinach, Kale, and Collard Greens
All of these green leafy vegetables are good sources of lutein, a carotenoid that's good for your eyes. That's especially important because people with the diabetes may develop debilitating eye problems as a complications of the disease. These foods are also great sources of fiber, B vitamins, iron, calcium, and vitamin C.

10. Chocolate
The researchers at Tufts University discovered that dark chocolate improves insulin sensitivity, a crucial improvement in preventing or treating type 2 diabetes. What's more, dark—but not white—chocolate also produced a significant drop in blood pressure, reduced LDL (bad) cholesterol, and improved blood vessel function.

Just don't overdo it all. Dark chocolate is great for the occasional indulgence, but it still packs a lot of fat and calories.
11. Steak
and there's something in steak besides the protein, iron, and B vitamins that's good for us. It's a compound that's part of beef's fat profile called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Doctors Michael Murray and Michael Lyon point out in their book Beat Diabetes Naturally that experiments have shown that CLA works to correct impaired blood sugar metabolism and also appears to have significant anti-cancer properties.

Doctors Michael Murray and Michael Lyon point out in their book Beat Diabetes Naturally that experiments have shown that CLA works to correct impaired blood sugar metabolism and also appears to have significant anti-cancer properties.
In the most of recent research, scientists in Norway supplemented the diets of 180 people with a few grams of CLA and reported that they lost 9 percent of their body weight in one year. For a 200-pounder, that's an 18-pound weight loss!
To get CLA from steak, choose meat from range-fed beef. Eating natural pasturage give these animals far more healthful CLA than the usual grain-rich diet. And keep portions to 3 or 4 ounces.
12. Vinegar
Two tablespoons of vinegar taken before a meal can help your blood sugar go down. A study at Arizona State University East tested three different groups of people to see what the results would be in healthy people, those with prediabetes (they had signs diabetes was developing), and confirmed diabetics. Before each of two meals a day, the subjects were given 2 tablespoons of ordinary vinegar.

The results: An hour after the vinegar treatment, the diabetics had blood sugar levels that were 25 percent lower than without vinegar. The prediabetics had an even better result: Their levels were lower by about half.

How believing weight is out of your control could lead you gain weight
According to a new study , why you shouldn't worry about your body weight , believing that your weight is outside of your control could lead you packed on the pounds, make you unhealthy food choices and decrease quality of your life .
If any of the person believes that weight to be outside of the influence of exercise and diet, He or she may engage in more behaviors that may rewarding in the short term, Like eating unhealthful foods and avoiding exercises , rather than healthful behaviors with more long-term benefits for the weight management," wrote study authors Dr. Mike C. Parent and Dr. Jessica L. Alquist of Texas Tech University.
Researchers Worked with data from 4,166 men and 4,655 women, and found found that the belief that weight is unchangeable comes with age -- and unhealthy eating.
As long as the people aged , they are less likely to read food nutrition labels and increasingly avoid fruits, vegetables and exercise and go for the ready-to-eat frozen meals, according to the study, "Born Fat," published in the journal Health Education and Behavior.
"Previous research has found the gender differences in weight as the motivation for exercise and healthful eatings, and did not find evidences that gender affected the relationship between a health beliefs and the physical activity or healthful eating," "However, we found evidence that the relationship between belief in weight changeability and exercise, healthful eating, and unhealthful eating differs by age."
A new research comes in about the role of the gut bacteria in body weight and that of energy-burning brown fat in metabolism, solutions to obesity could be around the corner, whether or no body weight is determined by DNA.
On the meantime, Parent and Alquist's study supports a 2014 study conducted at the University of Kent, that suggests the emphasizing well-being could be more important for health than focusing in on an ideal body weight.
Chosing good and helthy food choices, exercising and taking the time to cook best food , surpasses the harmful effects of dieting and decreases one's likelihood to develop eating disorders, say the researchers, whose study was published in Journal of Obesity and helps loosing the weight .
Why it is difficult to lose weight for women compared to men
The ladies are in tough fight to lose weight as compared to men it is all because of the brain is wired differently as compared to man, a new study suggests. That for most of the people preventing weight gain can look like an uphill struggle but scientists led by the University of Aberdeen in UK have discovered why it may even harder for women as the gender is concerned.
The Researchers used mouse model to uncover a sex difference in weight gain driven by the differences in physical activity and energy consumption. During the study, scientist were able to transform obese male mice with the increased appetite and reduce physical activity into lean, healthy mice. And on the same time the same transformation did not occur in the female mice.
All the findings could have implications for the development of new sex-specific medications for more effectively tackling the obesity epidemic in the near future. “The World Health Organisation (WHO) reports that the higher rates of obesity in women worldwide, reaching to the twice the prevalence of men in some parts of the world,” said Lora Heisler from University of Aberdeen who led the study and carried in collaboration with researchers from the University of Cambridge and University of Michigan.
Heisler said that "We have discovered that the part of the brain that has a significant influence on how we use calories that we eat is wired differently in males and females,” .
The cells in the brain region makes very important brain hormones called pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) peptides. Researchers said that is responsible for the regulating of our appetite, physical activity, energy expenditure and body weight .
And In the females, this source of POMC peptides does not strongly modulate the physical activity or energy expenditure . “So, while medications targeting this source of POMC peptides may effectively reduce appetite in females, our evidence suggests that they will not tap into the signals in our brain that modulate physical activity and energy expenditure,” said Heisler.
“And this study reveals that the sex difference in the physical activity, energy expenditure and body weight is driven by specific source of brain POMC peptides,” Heisler said. This study was published in journal Molecular Metabolism.

How high fat diet increase body weight , high blood sugar and cause diabetes
The most effects of high-fat diet increase body weight and caused anxiety and depression and high blood sugar along with measurable changes in the brain, the new study in mice revealed. Strangely, that these high-fat diet fed mice did not benefit from treatment with an antidepressant, the researchers said.
Over a servay, The World Health Organization estimates diabetes and depression each affect 350 million people. These condition in some way intertwined? According to the researchers, past studies suggest that depressive disorder that develop relatively early in the life lead to an increased risk of diabetes, while 10 to 30 percent of diabetic patients suffer from major type of depression. Prior to research also shows how metabolic damage caused by a long-term high-fat diets or a Western diet elicited depressed behavior in animals modeling type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Past animal studies have also suggested that a high fat diet — consisting mainly of large portions of meat, dairy, and nuts and little to no starches or sugars — might exacerbate depression.
These findings emphasize the existence of common brain circuits and signaling pathways between both metabolic and psychiatric disorders.
And To explore the influence of type 2 diabetes on emotionality, the French research team designed a experiment that worked like this type : First, they fed mice a high fat diet and then assessed the rodents for the metabolic or psychiatric disorder symptom, while also examining their brains. Next, the researchers tested and see whether an antidepressant or withdrawal from the high fat diet could reverse the metabolic and behavioral symptoms in the mice. Finally, they analyzed all the result.
And some of what they discovered was expected. The high fat diet increased the body weight of the mice while also raising their blood sugar levels and the decreasing their glucose tolerance. Yet these metabolic symptom also correlated with anxiety/depression-like symptom in the mice. And while examination of the mice also revealed decreased serotonin levels in the hippocampus. (Generally, the higher levels of serotonin produce the positive mood.)
Importantly,over all even prolonged use of an antidepressant produced no beneficial effects on the mice. By comparison, stopping the high fat diet completely reversed the metabolic impairments and lessened the anxious symptoms, and even if some depression-like symptoms remained.
And the researchers says their data provide "clear-cut evidence" that metabolic and psychiatric pathologies are not only related, but also linked to discernible changes in the brain. Based on these findings.
