Yes.
But, it's not so simple as many make it out to be.
Well, it actually is simple on a certain level, because it's about building g habits and routines around some basics, but how it all works on the most fundamental of levels is complex.
See, food is energy.
Electrons to be exact.
Electrons packaged in various forms, that also contain in the same "wrapper" different micro nutrients/vitamins and minerals that our body uses to heal and repair, as well as "optimize" our energy systems.
Ultimately, if you are overweight, you are suffering from an ENERGY DEFICIT.
Yeah, doesn't seem to make much sense eh?
You have a pile of energy on your body, but, you just keep storing it.
Instead of using it correctly.
To truly understand which foods they need to avoid, a person that is overweight needs to have a full environmental analysis done.
Even the act of moving from one area of a country to another, can greatly influence what a person can and cannot eat.
Work on a computer all Day?
This changes your metabolism.
So, the person working outside,Mia's less thing so on avoid b's the person working indoors.
See how it's not so simple as calories in calories out?
This is for kindergarten mentality "food gurus" and trainers still caught up in old mentality that no longer applies, because, well, we know more about how our physiology actually works.
Here are some things anyone would do well to avoid:
Man made fats.
Processed foods of all kinds.
Fluoridated water (there are multiple reasons for this one)
Foods that do not grow in the area you live in naturally. Ie. Bananas do not grow here in Ontario, Canada where I am writing this.
I don't eat bananas.
If I lived in a place where bananas naturally grow, I would.
In northern climes, carbohydrates need to be avoided more.
Live near the equator?
You can eat up to 40% more carbohydrate.
A good book to begin reading for the person interested in how this all works on a deeper level:
The Epi-paleo Rx: Dr Jack Kruse
No, it's not paleo.
