Default High Fiber Foods For Safe Weight Management

Even if you don't have an overweight problem, you need to manage your
weight on a daily basis lest it gets out of control. And, the best and
safest way to do it is to introduce high fiber foods in your daily
diet. If you do have a weight problem, you must not look for short
cuts or quick-fix remedies, and avoid even thinking of things like
gastric bypass, or tummy tuck surgery which can lead to sepsis or
scarring

According to 2006 statistics, nearly 200,000 bariatric procedures were
done in the United States alone. Doctors will tell you that these
extreme measures should be taken as a life saving choice, in order to
control increased incidence of cardiovascular disease, elevated
cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes. These measures should
be reserved for individuals suffering from morbid obesity.

It is common sense to exhaust all forms of safe weight loss measures
before seeking an invasive solution. The truth is that weight problems
occur when you are doing something wrong in your lifestyle. So, it is
best to correct that and see the effect. You will realize that mild
problems of excess weight can be corrected by a commitment to simple
changes in diet and lifestyle.

No matter which method you choose, you must consult your doctor and
take his advice on your proposed diet. A dietitian or nutritionist
will evaluate what may be needed to achieve the greatest success on
your program. A smart diet, moderate exercise, and the use of safe
weight loss aides are undoubtedly the safest way to lose weight.

A smart diet includes high fiber foods such as fruits, vegetables and
whole grains. Fiber is well known for its benefits to the
cardiovascular system. Fiber stimulates a hormone called CCK, which
addresses the appetite; it gives you the feeling of fullness so that
you automatically eat less and reduce weight. There are two types of
fiber, soluble and insoluble. The water-soluble type of fiber provides
the greatest benefit for weight loss.

Soluble fiber is found in foods such as fruit pectin, oats, and
acacia. As it dissolves in water, it forms a gel by swelling and
absorbing water soluble materials such as cholesterol. Then it traps
them and escorts them out of the colon. According to recent studies
every gram of this soluble fiber flushes out seven calories.


It was Audrey Eyton who first recommended high fiber foods for natural
weight loss in her book The F-Plan Diet, in the early 1980s. Now, a
well known digestive care nutritionist Brenda Watson calls this "The
Fiber Flush Effect,' in her new book, The Fiber35 Diet. She says that
as you increase your consumption of fiber, you naturally eliminate
extra calories in your stool.

The daily consumption of 20-35 grams of fiber is recommended by the
National Institutes of Health. It is seen that majority of Americans
don't even consume half of that. The daily intake of 35 grams of fiber
has the potential of eliminating 245 calories per day, or 7595
calories per month! This means you can lose 2 pounds of weight in a
month because you need a deficit of 3,500 calories for a one pound
weight loss. This is a safe natural weight loss option, which is
neither invasive nor extreme.

Therefore, it is best to try the natural way of losing weight before
you think of drastic measures such as surgery
