Hello, today I will give you some practical advice for those days on which eat away from home. You may believe me eat away from home without gain weight, the question is to know that sort. This is how difficult before the nearly endless parade of “delicious” carbohydrates front of us seem to ask us with a sensual voice, whispered directly in our ear “Comem” and to cap it all finishes the sentence by saying “you’ll do no harm”, at that time we pause to think… just a little once a year does no harm and start the chain autojustificatorios arguments that eventually diminish our conviction to lead a healthier life. Sad but true. Today review precisely what we do when we are away from home, this does not mean only accompany our family and see them eat, we eat properly and keep us in the area even eating fast food as those of McDonalds, if so… we only know that as sort and combine it and follow the simple rule of palms.
There are 2 scenarios where we can go to eat basically the first dearly for example an elegant French restaurant, the food you serve should be enough because in such places account more the presentation that the quantity and second places that can most often frequent the fast food: Burger King, McDonald’s, Carls Junior, Pizza Hut, cakes, Taqueria, buffet, etc.. etc.. etc.. where the amount that has more quality, which expect to give “real value for our money” unfortunately not in terms of quality and balancing the foods they sell.
In the first scenario the basic rules to keep us in the area would be the following:
Never eat bread, to eat carbohydrates before eating, better reservémoslos for dessert.
In choosing the saucer select proteins: chicken, beef, etc.. and ask the waiter to change our carbohydrates favourable, unfavourable.
To ask only expect a bottle with water or red wine (1 cup) and wait for the saucer.
In serving the dish evaluates the portion of proteins following the rule of palms and qualifies carbohydrates in the dish, come those who are favourable.
If these favorable eating carbohydrates can eat twice as much protein, but if you’re a lover of desserts must limit the amount of carbohydrates in the dish for strong reserves and eat dessert.
When asked dessert ask anything you want but plans to eat only half and if you want to offer the rest to your companions.
It is not so hard truth.
The second scenario put example of a place to sell hamburgers and frequent fast food: McDonald’s.
When you order your hamburger always seeks to grilled chicken without dressing (most of these establishments sell, if not all) and change potatoes for a salad, obviously acompáñalo with diet soda or even better with water . Upon arriving at the table must withdraw ¾ bread, log chicken and add it to your salad, now have a salad with chicken and use the remaining ¼ of bread as a giant Cortona, and lastly never use the dressings, thus get a meal more balanced and “hormonally” more healthy. Perhaps at this point your subconscious wants traicionarte of blackmail and all those children you were the victim for your family so that as it appears, the classic “and so many children who do not have to eat”. etc.. or perhaps you will feel bad because apparently pay for something that does not consume, but those doing the right thing, do not you think your health is worth it? obviously is not the most healthy go to these places but sometimes ended up going by, victims of the whim of the family, a party, etc.. If you go to a place where they serve the cake is the same procedure, if they serve tacos pulls the content of meat and consúmelo only 2 tortillas and if it continues to buffet the rule of palms consuming protein and carbohydrates favorable, usually have a bar salad.
Vez as if it is possible to eat healthy even in those places “Palaces of Carbohydrates”, “Temples obesity,” it is only a matter know and how much to eat.
It is important to convey to our children healthy eating habits, the first rule would eat only what is necessary, the second eat fruits and vegetables, the third fast food places to eat are occasionally not every weekend and all the rules that you create healthy prudent to convey to their children. Remember that we are their models, in consultation virtually all I see obese children have parents or obese at least one of them, Why? Because it is they who nurture and teach their children that their eating habits are probably not the most appropriate, based on the premise that they themselves are obese.
Well, I hope that these councils will be useful, try to put them into practice. Stay online and until tomorrow

As an avid drinker of green tea, I decided to see if there are benefits to follow green tea diet. The Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), also known as Epigallocatechin 3-gallate is a catechin and found in green tea, and is thought to be the main ingredient in green tea, which provides drinking green tea health benefits including abundant weight loss. It is believed a cup of green tea contains 20-35 milligrams of EGCG.
EGCG fights fat effectively increasing the rate of energy expenditure and fat burning through a process of thermogenesis. There have been many studies on links between the EGCg and weight loss has been finded for in recent years. A widely cited study published in the journal of the American Clinical Nutrition (Vol.70, No.6, 1999) presented to measure whether the consumption of green tea could increase energy expenditure by 24 hours and the heavy oxidation in humans. She concluded that “green tea has thermogenic properties and promotes fat oxidation beyond that explained by its caffeine content intrinsically. The green tea extract may play a role in controlling body composition through the activation of the sympathetic thermogenesis, the fat oxidation, or with both. ”
Caffeine is thought to help weight loss, and is often an important component in dietary supplements, it is also a component of green tea. There are about 30mg of caffeine per cup than 8 ounces (240mls). The caffeine in green tea helps you does to lose weight? The Mayo Clinic summarizes the effects of caffeine and weight loss in an article published on its website. It states: “caffeine may act as qu’appétit repressive. However, while studies have shown that some eat less after consumption of caffeine, this effect is brief - not long enough to lead to significant loss of weight.
Caffeine can increase the capacity of your body to burn calories. Caffeine is thought to stimulate thermogenesis - the one-way your body produces heat and energy to digest food. However, the role of caffeine in the thermogenesis is probably not enough to result in significant loss of weight.
The caffeine acts as a diuretic, which means it causes an increase in the amount of urine you excrétez. This water loss may temporarily decrease your body weight. ”
It is said that together EGCg and caffeine have a substantial effect on weight loss. In a study published in “in vivo”, vol.18, 2004 scientists studied the effects of anti-obesity of catechin, caffeine and theanine, in mice. They concluded that the combination of caffeine and the catechin was the most effective among the components of green tea in the suppression of weight gain and the accumulation of fat. ”
Thus it seems that studies undertaken in recent years, that the benefits to follow a diet green tea can be attributed to the combination of caffeine and EGCg.
