BOOK ADVISES LIKE A DEDICATED NUTRITIONAL PRACTITIONER WOULD
|
This book covers your health in so many ways instead of reducing you to a sugar/food addict like myself, but sees the other problems and addresses these and explains everything with diagrams and indepth, interesting details. The writer must of believed that the lay person of today are clever for her book informs you on everything you need tpo know in resonable depth. Writes about every possible way we can prevent water retention, its one of the best lay peoples books I have read. I brought the book a few days ago and have read it...
If your like me, you search for ages, for yet again, another book that might help.
It can be hard for some, like me, too lose weight, even if your a few pounds over weight. I get very bad PMT, and worry how long I can last out, weight goes right up!! I have learnt the hard way after many years of being told I need to watch my blood sugars, get on a higher protien, medium fats and low carbohydrate diet, with plenty of low GI vegatbles like brocolli, cauliflower and sprouts. I find diets gard to stay on and they tend not to work, unless I go on a strict stone age diet.
I read this book and it maybe my 100th book. It says it all. I feel that this book mentions all that needs to be mentioned. Stay of salt, eat vegetables, eat plenty of protien but not too much. I did not realise that the sugar was not just leading me to diabetes, heart problems and arthritis but to kidney problems. I mean sugar seems to cause everything. It lifts the insulin which raises growth hormone and increases likelyhood of cancer.
Buy this book as long as you do intent to change your diet. Book reccomends soya which I disagree with because although the estrogen is low in soya low and is said to bind to estrogen receptors blocking worse estrogens scientists have proved it causes cancer in rodents... small amount of estrogen is still estrogen. Also soya have goitrogens which inhibit thyroid and can lead to thyroid cancer. Soya is a big no no. Fermented soya products are the ones the japanses eat in small but regular quantities. When fermented the giotrogens are destroyed. Also we add soya to our bread, and most foods, so we get soya in lots of foods we are not aware of, so be careful with soya (unfermented soya, including soya milk and custard).
The waterfall book great parts are that it explains about the lymphatic system, suggests massage to help and simple exercise, even suitable for disabled people. It is a practical book that deals with every issue. It mentions allergy foods, and getting to know what they are, can make you hold water. I found by keeping of milk, wheat and sugar my PMT went and I stopped putting on 8-9lb of water each time. I know allergies therefore do cause water retention, the problem is it is keeping of them, as many of you will know. I do not think we realise yet how dangerously addictive sugar, milk and wheat is. Although for some of you it maybe sugar only. The book mentions about vitamins and mineral deficiencies ini addressing water retention, e.g. B-vitamins and magnesium prevent water retention. Looks at the functioning of the liver, and herbs to detox liver. Looks at drugs prescribed by doctor, such as hormones and discusses which cause water retention and what to do. A great book, buy it.
LOVE TO ALL OF YOU FAT OR THIN OR INBETWEEN, BLACK OR WHITE . I HOPE YOU HAVE SUCESS AND A GREAT DAY

I loved this book from beginning to end. It explains how sometimes being overwight doesn't necessarily mean having too much fat, but fluid retention could be one of the causes. If you are one of those people that is always on a diet and performing lots of execercise and still find it hard to shed those extra pounds, you will find this book extremely helpful. Some bits are quite scientific but still easy to read and well explained. The book initially helps you to find out if fluid retention could be your problem, what are the reasons that causes it and how to fix the problem. The book offers a diet program, easy to follow with easy and delicious recepies. I tried the program and followed the advices and it works! To help speed up the proccess of fluid elimination try some diuretic herbal teas as well.

Easy read, with recognisable explantions to fluid retention

A book that could not be put down, written in plain english, in such a way that easily explains several causes of fluid retention; why weight loss is not being found by other means and how to do something positive about it. All that remains is to put it into practice!!

At the age of 46,I found myself approximately 25 pounds heavier than I had been all my adult life, even with a healthy lifestyle and diet. The only explanation was that the weight gain must be genetic. In a photograph at my niece's wedding, I became aware of the fluid retention in my face. It was obvious. I have two cousins in my generation with kidney transplants so I am very careful to note any change in kidney function. I research the matter from time to time and found "The Waterfall Diet" on the internet. I purchased the book and after following the recommended foods for one month, I lost 8 pounds and have managed to loose more with regular maintenance. It was also quite entertaining to gain understanding of differences in terminiolgy and foods from one country to another. I highly recommend this book as a gift for every woman over age 30.
