It 's the most common question you hear that the doctor asked. The diet
seriously needs to be balanced in this website is already talk of adequate food
and was set as a diet therapy for weight loss. Diet serious, therefore, must
have the following characteristics:
Contain all the nutrients
Contain them in the right proportions.
Certainly most of our readers have the problem of eating outside the home, such
as fast food (literally fast food or hit and run), stressed by modern rhythms
and chaotic life of today, fortunately, is still in Sicily that the 77% of
adults makes a good breakfast meal at home and 89% versus 75% who always eat
outside the home. But Sicilian food and usually also the lords of the north is
not adequate: a lot of meat, a lot of pasta, lots of fruit sugar, few vegetables,
milk only women and children, only mineral water, fast food, as we said.
Or if you weight 100 and are 1.60 meters high, then the formula will be divided

WHY '
Obesity is an important

Cardiovascular disease: coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular and
thromboembolic disease, arterial hypertension
Endocrine / Metabolic: metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus type 2,
dyslipidemia

Even the excessive thinness, anorexia, bulimia are beautiful things, or the
frantic quest for thinness of young people today, that during adolescence relate
with their bodies, which are maddeningly in some Italian cities, such as a Milan,
where they live with the obsession of the flesh to the hips, cellulite etc.. etc..
The other day I listened to a radio broadcaster from the Milan and I was sick to
hear the announcer voice effeminate speaking of fat, flab of blemishes, with the
exasperation of a complex!
ANOREXIA
Anorexia usually begins with a diet in order to improve its image.
Implies a drastic rejection of food in order to pursue an ideal of unattainable
thinness: the anorexic person never feels thin enough.
The body, skeleton, becomes the scene of an inner pain that words can not say.
Anorexia lies a profound discomfort that you are trying to silence through the
obsessive control of calories and weight.
Anorexia affects your body hard, attacking him in his vital functions and can
lead to serious physical consequences such as renal failure, osteoporosis,
cardiovascular disorders, loss of teeth and hair.
Anorexia can die.
BULIMIA
The person suffering from bulimia have a low self-esteem that comes from a deep
inner emptiness. In a desperate attempt to fill this void is forced beyond his
will, to ingest enormous quantities of food and then vomita.Il guilt resulting
therefrom, forced to come up with such dangerous conduct preliminary
self-induced vomiting, abuse of laxatives and diuretics .
Bulimia is not clearly visible as anorexia, but equally devastating consequences
on the lives and health of sufferers.
Anorexia, bulimia and obesity, expressed in a different way, a desperate hunger
for love.
The obsessive thoughts of food furnishes the mind by protecting flood of
emotions such as anger, fear and desire, before whom you feel fragile and
vulnerable. The obsession with food, weight and body creates a dependency, to
exit that requires a specialist help.
So what should we eat?
First the rules!
Implement a food education program, parents and school start
no food in front of the TV
briosciame nothing in the house!
No carbonated beverages
Do not eat fast
do not skip breakfast
do not push to clear the dishes
do not overdo it with meat and baby food!
Delighting to life and motion
Then here's balanced diet.
Composition:
55-58% carbohydrates
25-30% fats, the polyunsaturated BETTER
12-15 PROTEIN
ENERGIES OF MEAL Divided into:
BREAKFAST 20%
LUNCH 35%
CENA -dinner35%
SNACKS 10%
So eating carbohydrates is important, including diabetes, so we mean that pasta
and bread are fine, for example from 80 to 100 grams per meal, then you just
encourage diet and motion, eating the vegetables at least 2-3 servings of,
preferably fruits and vegetables, 2-3 fruits per day, a little sugar, such as
pears, apples more bitter, the "Emperor" restrict the use of butter, fats,
condiments, such as lard, fried snacks, Snacks, potato chips, but not abolish
the extra virgin olive oil or the corn that contain omega 3, but bolire or
reducing sweets, candy, soft drinks, orange juice, cakes, pastries, cornettini,
swivels, donuts, cream etc..
The wine goes well, a patient yesterday jokingly called him "the blood of Christ,
but must be done" communion "with only one finger per day (!), Wine red, the
natural home, not" stick " with anthocyanosides and antioxidants, milk is good,
especially at breakfast the boys, preferably semi-skimmed.
