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.

Can A Massage Chair Help You Weight Loss?

By Jim P Knowlen

Could you imagine if we could just sit down and a massage chair and lose weight? This is certainly a more pleasurable way to get into shape. But like anything in isolation, it is part of a total health program in which your goal is losing weight. The body must maintain balance between diet, exercise and recuperation. Massage chairs can be useful for helping to melt away some of the stubborn weight while bringing other rest are restorative benefits.

It is important to maintain balance in any health program that you undertake. Many times are daily stresses will take over and cloud our minds. Our minds ruminate constantly on these issues to no avail. Periodic relaxation helps to restore calmness to the mind. It is important to be able to reel in mind when needed. This helps to keep a healthy balance.

When we undertake a weight loss program, we normally start by eating better and exercising frequently. We start to see improvement with losing weight and the beginning of the exercise program. However, we then seem to plateau as the body stabilizes and it becomes harder to lose additional weight.

Early on in our weight loss program we start to implement our diet and exercise routine. We then start to lose weight. However, most of the early weight loss is water weight. To facilitate greater water weight loss, massage chair therapy helps to release excess water being held.

Another important benefit is the movement of the lymph and other fluids in your body. The lymph removes and cleans toxic material out of your cells. Receiving regular massage treatments helps to move this fluid and flush it out of your body. Regular flushing of toxins is important to maintain your body in prime health.

Increase your muscle tone with regular massage chair treatments. The penetrating release provided to the muscles helps to restore flexibility. This improves their ability to build up greater muscle mass. The muscles become stronger and more defined. Another added benefit is the rate of burning calories is higher with stronger muscles.

There is some research to suggest that massage therapy may contribute to the loss of fat. The penetration of massage into the soft tissues is believed to burst the fat capsule. When the fat capsule is burst, it can be more easily absorbed and removed from your body.

Let's face it as we get older our metabolism begins to slow down. It is normally thought that at 40 years old, your metabolism will begin slowing down. This makes it even harder to lose weight. Steps must be taken to increase the metabolism providing the body with greater energy. Receiving periodic massage chair treatments helps with blood and fluid circulation. Improved circulation is critical to maintaining a have higher-level of metabolism.

The cells are known to excrete certain fluids to help repair tissue. Regular stretching and elongating of these soft tissue areas is critical for breaking down scar tissue. It is believed that by restoring flexibility that the scar tissue will recover much faster.

When you begin to work out regularly, you may tend to get soreness and tightness in the muscles. This can occur from a build up of lactic acid. Regular therapy provides a means to help reduce the build up of lactic acid leading to pain reduction.

A massage chair provides a natural set of treatments to help you reach your weight loss goals. It helps you recover faster from exercise and removed waste products from your body. It provides a sanctuary for relaxation of your mind. This is important to maintain a healthy and positive perspective. Massage chairs may be that extra needed motivation to beat your health goals.
