Enjoy life and not its meaning

F.M. Dostoyevski

Enzymes, vitamins and minerals are very important for weight loss. Mined from protein, carbohydrate and fat energy is distributed throughout the body by enzymes. Enzymes are ferments that speed up chemical reactions in the body. They play an important role in all life processes that guide and regulate metabolism. Vitamins affect growth, metabolism, immune function, nervous system, endocrine system, blood formation, coagulation, etc.

Tier types are soluble (A, D, E, K) and the rest are water soluble. Vitamins are distinguished from other organic nutrients that are not used by the body as an energy source. Biologically important elements are chemical elements that ensure the normal functioning of the body. There are two types – micro and microelements. Microelements are chemical elements contained in the organisms in parts per thousand (iron, copper, zinc, molybdenum, bromine, fluorine, argon, stroke, etc.) which affects growth, reproduction, hematopoietic, etc. Their deficiency or excess leads to disturbances in metabolism. The body accepts trace elements in large quantities from the external environment.

I’ll give you a few simple rules to follow in order to keep the vitamins in your diet. Containers, graters and iron or brass knives can destroy the vitamins in food so if possible, tear the leaves for salads, cut the vegetables into large pieces, use plastic graters, plastic juicers not metallic one. If you can, eat raw materials reduce boiling times and avoid refreezing and warming your food. Always wash all foods carefully. You should eat vitamin rich food so there is no need for synthetic tablets to replace natural vitamins.

Let’s take a look in more detail at Principle Two

Eat your fruit separately, before or between meals.

When we constantly meet the same people they become part of our lives. When they become part of our lives they want to change it. And if we are not such as they want, they become angry. Because everyone thinks that they know exactly how you should live our lives. But nobody knows exactly how to live their own life

Paulo Coelho “The Alchemist”

When you eat another meal in combination with fruits, the fruits stays in the stomach fermentation begins as fruits lose their beneficial ingredients. As a result, carbohydrates ferment and protein rots forming acids and gases. Fruits fall into the category of superfoods. When consumed alone they undergo little digestion in the mouth and no stomach. Their digestion is performed in the small intestine where the contents of their vitamins, minerals, natural sugars, etc. are absorbed very quickly. If you start your meal with fruits then it is bad for digestion eating them for dessert isn’t as bad.

It is advisable to consume juices immediately after preparation. After staying over a period of time the juice ferments and turns acidic and loses their natural vitamins and minerals. Fruit juices sold in stores contain added artificial acids, sugars and other additives, flavorings and colorings. For example, if the juice is peach flavored it means that artificial flavor has been used. For products, which have been indicated as sugar-free the sugar has been replaced with artificial sweetener or glucose. Avoid the consumption of carbonated soft drinks with artificial additives or at least reduce them and drink them separately from foods.

Drink plenty of water but not with meals for it unnecessarily expands the stomach. The human body contains between 50 and 75% water that depends on your weight and age. Water contributes to the normal functioning of the heart and transports nutrients to the cells. Although we all know how important water is we do not drinking enough.
