Why Fat Flush?
Your internal environment is a vital component of a healthy diet. But it can grow sluggish on a diet high in refined sugar, white bread, red meats and deep-fried foods, and low in fresh fruits and vegetables. That can lead to food cravings, bloating and general malaise.
Trim ‘n Slim® Fat Flush contains bulk-forming fibres and herbal cleansing ingredients formulated to promote normal function of the digestive system and a feeling of fullness. Dietary fibres are important for weight loss because they enhance all digestive processes. They can attach themselves to some of the fat you eat and detoxify the colon of trapped wastes, flushing them out of the body.
Gentle enough to use everyday, our proprietary blend of time-tested fibres and herbs helps remove bowel buildup that over time devitalize the body and reduce the absorption of good nutrients that the body requires.
- Psyllium husk: 100% soluble fibre. Absorbs 40 times its weight in water, expanding stool to clean your intestinal walls.
- Flaxseed: 50% soluble and 50% insoluble fibre. Lubricating.
- Rhubarb root (from 4:1 concentrate): Gently stimulating.
- Papaya: Digestive aid.
- Juniper Berry (from 2:1 concentrate): Purifying and detoxifying.
- Peppermint leaf: Gastrointestinal comfort.
- Uva Ursi extract (standardized to 20% arbutin): Reduces bloating.
- Lactobacillus acidophilus: Probiotic. Enhances digestion.
Trim ‘n Slim® Fat Flush quickly puts you back on track to a healthier lifestyle and a slimmer, trimmer you.
Nutrition Basics
Carbohydrates, protein, fat and water are the basic building blocks in healthy eating and weight control. Carbohydrates supply energy, protein helps build and repair body tissue, and fat supplies energy and aids in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Water is an essential nutrient that is involved in every bodily function. Your body needs a proper balance of these nutrients together with vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients for optimum health.
When we take in more calories than we have burned, we gain weight, since excess calories are stored as fat. A calorie is simply a unit of energy. To lose one pound, you must eat 3,500 fewer calories than your body uses. This can be accomplished through eliminating approximately 500 calories per day – the equivalent of 3-1/2 oz. potato chips, or 1 cup of chocolate fudge ice cream. One gram of protein or carbohydrate contains 4 calories, whereas a gram of fat contains 9 calories—more than twice the amount of calories. You can see how eating too many fat-laden foods can easily contribute to overweight.
The Trim ‘n Slim Fat Flush Weight Loss Plan has been carefully developed by nutritionists to provide healthy meals and snacks. Each meal day provides approximately 1,200 calories, and ensures that the average person is eating the right amount of nutrients as per Canada’s Food Guide to Healthy Eating. Less than 30% of the energy is derived from fat, as recommended by health experts. Be sure to boost water intake as well. Extra water is needed during any weight-loss program, and helps to counter any dehydration effects. Take the supplement with a full glass of water before meals as directed, and drink another six to eight 8-oz. glasses of water throughout the day.
Active Living
Regular physical activity is important to overall health and well-being, and the success of your weight-loss program. Exercise helps strengthen and tone muscles as well as speed up your metabolism, making your body more efficient at burning calories. Walking is one of the best aerobic activities because it is easy, inexpensive, effective, and there is no special equipment required. Regular walking can burn calories, which can aid in weight loss.
Before you go for your walk, begin with some light stretches to warm up your muscles. Then, start walking at a slow pace to get your heart and muscles further warmed up. After a few minutes, pick up the pace with a brisk walk, swinging your arms vigorously while keeping a full stride. Remember to breathe properly — in through your nose and out through your mouth. This keeps the oxygen flowing properly through your body. Keep up this brisk pace unless you feel any shortness of breath. Finish your walk by cooling down, walking at a relaxed pace for several minutes and then stretching your muscles. Ideally, you should walk for 30 minutes, 3 times per week. You may have to build up to this amount — do not overdo it — it’s ok to start off with what your body can manage.As your fitness level progresses, incorporate some weight-bearing exercises into your weekly plans to help build and maintain lean body mass, which gives you that lean, trim look. As you firm your muscles, your body becomes more efficient at burning calories. It also helps increase bone density, which is extremely important for women and osteoporosis. Increasing bone density makes them less brittle as you age.
These are just a few exercise tips to get you started. You’ll be surprised how great you’ll look and feel when you combine healthful eating with regular exercise.
