P.O.R.N. Diets

I am coining this term as I feel some of the diets out there are so radical they need to be discussed in one place.

We here from our favorite celebrities daily and some of us live for this. We follow them on Twitter, talk about them on Bebo and MySpace or e mail each other about them especially when a new diet is talked about.

There have been some over the top radical diets in the past like the 'Air diet', not a very popular one for obvious reasons unlike the 'Chocolate' diet. Then there is the more main stream 'Atkins' diet or 'The Dash Diet' or even 'The South Beach Diet'. All have there plus and minus points and their advocates and nay sayers as well.

The trick when it comes to diets if there is a trick in selecting one would be to thoroughly research the topic. The mere fact that there literally are thousands of diets commercially available shown on television, billboards or even your local Chemist shop.

Here will be many, many articles pertaining to the topic of P.O.R.N. Diets circulating our media and your opinion on them is most welcome. Maybe you have been on one and would like to praise it or maybe warn others away from it. Whatever you may like to share, diet related, please do.

By Stewart Mathers

Maybe it's unusual to think of green tea as having weight loss properties, but there now exists a green tea diet and many people swear by green tea extract as part of their weight reduction programme.

In fact you will find that green tea extract is contained in a lot of fat burning supplements. The green tea extract is used to speed up your metabolism without increasing your heart rate, which is a common side effect of some other weight loss products.

Green teas have been found to have positive effects in the arena of skin care. Two specific areas include acne and eczema. For acne, this tea makes a great and cheap alternative to expensive toners or astringents. Many people mix it with other ingredients to make a potion that can be applied with a cotton pad directly onto clean skin.

Just drinking green tea has also worked for some to decrease the presence of acne, although you do have to take care if increasing the intake of caffeine in your diet, as this has been linked to an increase in breakouts.

In addition to skin care, another claimed benefit of green tea is that it can be used as part of a homemade mouthwash. So what attribute of this light drink helps keep your teeth healthy? Its the presence of fluoride that helps prevent tooth decay and strengthens your teeth and gums.

Blending the brewed tea with spring water makes the most basic recipe, but it can also be combined with other ingredients to create intriguing flavors for your homemade mouthwashes.

A regular daily intake of green tea or green tea extract is also considered to help|improve|assist your overall health and well-being. The tea is packed with antioxidants that bind free radicals in our bodies; these free radicals can often cause cell damage.

There are also several green tea research studies that link green tea to cancer prevention. In addition to this tremendous benefit, green tea is also thought to promote an increase in metabolism that helps to lower cholesterol levels in the body.
