Woman’s Passions

How often, dreaming about flat belly and neat shapes, we think about changes occuring to our organism during a diet? Do we receive enough vitamins, minerals, protein and fat from all these lettuce leaves and 100 g of cereals, which we try to restrict ourselves with? If you often stick to diets, but want to stay healthy, and, what is rather important, look good, think about your food allowance!

 

So, you came to a conclusion thatyou need to lose weight. And the quicker the better. Which foods do you exclude from your diet first of all? Fat and high-calorie. And this is, first of all, meat. Then farinaceous foods - this means bread will turn to be among exiles. Sweets- favorite chocolate, cakes, fruits - you know, some of them are too high-calorie.

 

You did everything right and started losing hateful kilograms, but slenderness does not make you glad for some reason… Your mood is bad, you think slowly, sleep not well and become irritated without cause… Skin looks tired, nails started exfoliating, you cannot look at your hair… So, what’s happening?

 

You start searching for the reason and find it - this is a refusal from favorite, but harmful foods. And if so, you just have to overcome your bad mood for the sake of your great purpose - slenderness. In fact, everything is much more complicated here. There’re substances, necessary for our organism (it just cannot exist without them), and when we deprive it of “building material” for cells, we threaten our health.

 

If we are hungry for 4 hours only, then organs start borrowing nutritive materials from other reserves, less important - for example, hair. That’s why women, who often stick to diets, have dim skin, fragile nails and lifeless hair! So, when you declare another war to overweight, don’t forget that our organism cannot go without:

 

-         protein

25% of human organism consist of protein. 97 % of our hair consist of protein, so, when you refuse from meat - a source of animal protein - you can say good-bye to your dream of a beautiful chevelure. To avoid this, you should necessarily include rabbit meat, lean beef and chicken eggs in your daily allowance.

 

-         fats

Fats are contained in bioplasm, nucleus and membrane of our cells. On average, female organism should contain about 15-23% of fat - so you need to “skim” yourself considering these figures and keep on eating meat, fish and cheese.

 

-         amino acids

Organism cannot store up amino acids, so they are necessary for it every day. Soya protein contains 9 of most necessary.

 

- carbohydrates

The ones, which we are used to stay as far as possible from. And you know, they are a source of energy, a peculiar “fuel” for organism. Lack of carbohydrates leads to energy recession, apathy. If you hardly can concentrate, do mental and physical work, then this means it’s time to calculate quantity of carbohydrates you receive. Bread, nuts, fruits, cereals and honey should fill up missing ones.

 

-         iron

Iron is necessary for many metabolic processes in organism. Its most known function is participation in oxygen transfer to tissues and removal of carbonic acid from them, as iron is contained in hemoglobin of red corpuscles.

 

As iron is mostly contained in liver, buckwheat and meat, most women, who always stick to diets, start suffering from lack of iron: you know, apples cannot fill up such “iron hunger”. If you don’t like liver and jellied tongue categorically, you should definitely include dried muchrooms in your daily allowance (35 mg of iron for 100 g of product) or laminaria (16 mg in 100g). But remember - you still run risks, as iron is assimilated from vegetable foods much worse, than from animal foods.

 

-         vitamins and minerals

Of course, you know names of more or less popular polyvitaminic complexes and even take them sometimes… Which vitamins are most important?

 

Vitamin A is necessary for good state of skin, hair, vision, teeth, nails, bones. You can find it in green and yellow vegetables and fruits, eggs. Vitamin B is very important for normal work of nervous system. It is contained in dairy produce, bread, cereals, liver. Vitamin C is necessary for immune system and healthy teeth, you can draw it from kiwi, tomatoes, cabbage, cutruses.

 

The word “diet” loses its popularity recently: more and more people proceed from diets to healthy nutrition. Working out your own menu, don’t forget about your favorites - hair, nails, and, of course, skin!

 

You already know almost everything about face packs, you even invented some of your favorite ones by yourself, but you always have no time for hair and nails. Let’s repair the situation!

 

Olive oil, applied on nails once per day, gives a wonderful effect: they stop exfoliating, look healthy and grow more quickly.

 

Hair will be very grateful to you, if you treat them with masks once in two weeks, for example:

You can subdue dry unruly hair and make them obedient and shining with help of a simple mixture of yolks and five table spoons of oil (olive, jojoba).

 

Treat damaged hair, exhausted by experiments, with a mask of two table spoons of honey and three table spoons of cream. Wash carefully!

 

You can reanimate thin lifeless hair with help of a steamed rye-bread-crumb: apply on hair and put an elastic cap. Rinse in 20 minutes. Result will shock you pleasantly.

 

A healthy person’s hair always shine and look bright, and we shall only fall sick - and lifeless dim locks will tell everything without words. Only a healthy person can be beautiful, remember about it, while searching for a new diet!
