Dieting can take a lot out of a person if they are just crash dieting or yo-yo dieting. Dieting doesn't have to drain you or make you feel deprived.
When you diet properly you should shed pounds effortlessly and not feel like you are being punished while the rest of the world gets to enjoy life's magical foods.
You can shed pounds easily while eating tasty treats such as shakes and fruit.
By adding soy and whey to your diet you can help your diet along and make your meals more enjoyable. It has been proven that whey and soy each provide many beneficial health perks as they both offer different antioxidant properties.
You can actually get rid of mood swings, cramps and even hot flashes with soy. Soy is packed full of natural estrogens that are plant based called phytoestrogens and they can help balance the fluctuations in your hormones.
Studies show that if you add just 20 grams of soy (2- 4oz servings of tofu or 3 8 oz glasses of soy milk) will reduce your mood swings, cramps and hot flashes by a whopping 40 percent.
Perhaps you are like most people who are dieting. Many people who want to loose weight are also feeling the signs of aging and that can play a big part in our weight loss efforts.
There are antioxidants in soy called isoflavones which actually boost the production of collagen. Collagen is the connective tissue that keeps your skin's elasticity tight, strong and young looking.
Studies show that 93 percent of woman who ate bars rich in soy showed a significant change in their skins appearance.
You can actually increase your fat burn twice as much by finishing off your exercise routine with a whey shake or a glass of skim milk.
When studies were done with whey it showed that the people who added the skim milk or whey shakes to the end of their workouts actually gained 40 percent more lean muscle. That will help you to loose up to 50 percent more body fat. Makes you want to have a shake, doesn't it?
Whey is also rich in tryptophan which is an amino acid that is a building block of your brain's neurotransmitter called serotonin. By ingesting at least 20 mg of whey daily, you will increase your levels of tryptophan by 48 percent.
That alone will help you to feel much calmer on a daily basis, making life's daily stressors much easier to deal with.
So you can see that by adding soy and whey to your diet you will be well ahead of other
dieters.
You can help stay stress free and dramatically increase your weigh loss efforts as well as your energy. If you are a woman who suffers with mood swings or cramps when it is that time of the month then this is the answer for you.
Be sure to check with your doctor before starting any new diet to be sure that you are doing what is right for you.
