Info on diet 2

[Translated from a magazine]

✿ Eating garlic can lose weight as it contain allicin which increase metabolism. But eating too much can lead to stomach upset.

✿ Drink green tea about 3 times a day, can be taken before or after meal. It can reduce cholesterol and fat.

Banana is the most suitable fruit to eat for breakfast as it can be easily converted into energy.

✿ Have 5 meals a day instead of 3, as it can prevent an empty stomach and overeating. Split your calories required a day for 3 meals into 5 meals.

✿ It's better not to eat after 8pm, as the food you ate before you sleep can't be digested and it will turn into fat. If you're too hungry and have to eat something, choose tofu or dairy products which is easily digested.

Must have breakfast in the morning! If not, you might overeat since you have empty stomach for too long.
Ideal breakfast: sugars + Vitamin B1 + protein (must!)

✿ Having too much protein can also turn into fat! But if you exercise after consuming protein, it can strengthen the muscles.

✿ Having a diet according to blood type may not be suitable for everyone as our immune systems are different.
Example: Blood type A - Vegetables as main   B - dairy products,
O - meat, fish   AB - vegetables, bean products

✿ There's a saying where if you don't exercise continuously for 20 minutes and above, your fats can't be burn. But you can consume amino acid tablets before you exercise so as to shorten your exercise time.

The colour blue can suppress your appetite. It can lower your heartbeat and blood pressure, a colour that makes you feel relaxed. However, red will be the opposite!

✿ Drink a glass of warm water 200cc (can add with lemon juice) right after you woke up in the morning.
