lybrate-user diets are always the second step, first step is changing your lifestyle, I am giving some natural remedies, they are long but if you read it you will gain lots of benefit. Hello. It is not possible to provide a specialized diet for your health without having a look on your blood tests which will provide us with your information and help us further to help you in a specialized manner acutely. I request you to send me your blood reports and chose the duration of our diet plan and I may provide you exactly the individualized diet which will be according to your own body type. Naturopathy believes that you need not to consume any man-made chemicals for attaining a desired body shape and a satisfactory health & wellness. Just embrace the Mother Nature and merely by changing a bit of your life style and eating habits 70% you can be your own doctor. I am suggesting you some tips for your Energy, Health and wellness all you have to do is follow them regularly without any break. 1) It is strongly advisable that you eat fresh food. Consume your food within 48 minutes, because after that it starting decaying which in turn adversely harms your body. Avoid outside food and eat fresh homemade food preferably. Decayed & rotten or a day old food is also usually kept in the refrigerator which gives out 12 CFC gases, we don?t realize this fact but after a time long contact of food with harmful gases are slowly decaying our body from inside also. That is why it is advisable that you consume your food within 48 minutes from the time it is cooked. 2) In the morning start consuming lukewarm water right after you wake up & sitting in sukhasaan (chaukdi) it is advisable to even do rinsing with the lukewarm water in your mouth and gulp it after that. Drink your water sip by sip instead of drinking it in speed. This process is done for the detoxification and cleaning of your stomach/intestines that has everything to with your health issues. After this your stomach condition will remain intact at pH7 (which is not alkaline or acidic in nature but neutral). 3) Avoid processed food, Maida (white flour), sugar and its products as well as refined oil/double refined oil. Use pure oil of mustard (sarso), peanut, coconut, cow ghee, sesame. When you put 10 to 12 chemicals in these oils then they become refined oil and bring almost 68 diseases along with weight gain and bad health. Don?t follow what this television advertisement says about refined oil. It is all marketing. EAT PURE OILS 4) The alkaline or saliva (laar) of your mouth should mix with the acid of your stomach. This is only possible if you are drinking water sip by sip, slowly each time you consume water. This will not just help you in attaining a proper health but will keep you away from other health and weakness problems, which comes from the acids produced in stomach 5) Other advice is that don?t drink water after your meals (lunch, dinner, breakfast, or any mini meal). Drink water after 90 minutes of meals. Drinking water after your meals reduces your digestion, and as you know if food is not digested it will produce acid, which in turn will increase your weight. 6) You should avoid late night dinners at any cost and make sure you are following a routine while having 3 main course meals of the day. It is said that the best time to consume dinner is before sunset, but it is not possible daily in the present scenario so it is strongly advisable that you do not consume anything heavy in your dinner and make sure your dinner is your lightest meal of the day while you can consume a heavy yet healthy breakfast. 7) The best time for breakfast is from sunrise till 2 and half hours, for example if sun is rising at 6: 00AM in the morning in your city than the best time for the consumption of breakfast is 6: 00AM till 8: 30AM approximately. 8) Make sure you have a 4 to 6 hours gap only in between your main meals. For example if you consumed your breakfast at 8 then make sure you have your lunch between 12: 00pm and 2: 00pm 9) Eat jaggery (gurh), mishri (not from mill), boora (not from mill) instead of sugar and chemical substitutes of sugar and its products. 10) India is a tropical country and for such kind of atmosphere the most beneficial food we can consume living here is vegetarian diet. As non-veg diets decreases the amount of Hydrochloric Acid in the body which in turn decreases the power of our digestive as well as immune system of our body. 11) Eat fresh fruits and green vegetables (seasonal) 12) In between your meals have fruits and nuts as snacks but make sure they are fresh and consumed before they start losing their nutritional values. 13) Lastly I would suggest that make sure you have your head in the south or east direction while you are sleeping, these sleeping positions are accurate and retain your energy throughout the day. I suggest that you even do surya namaskar in the morning after you wake up it is a one in all exercise for a healthy body furthermore make sure you are following a routine and not having a sedentary lifestyle. Thanks.
