Research has found that when human stem cells - which can turn into any type of cell - were exposed to a common virus they turned into fat cells. They didn't just change, they also stored fat. Earlier research showed another common virus causes cells to store more fat. Read More















Obesity
Obesity is perfectly possible to be fat and fit, while trying to get thin (quick weight loss) can seriously damage your health. Excessive dieting and quick weight loss can actually lead to long term weight gain, because your body is programmed to get back to a physiological 'set point' as soon as possible. While you have been dieting to achieve quick weight loss, your metabolism has slowed down, making it more difficult to lose weight quickly next time.

2-reduce carbohydrate intake: say what? i thought you need alot of carbohydrates for feul true,but an excess intake of carbs can and will be stored as body fat . 99% of my clients who reduce their carbohydrate intake for fatloss succeed. i can't let all my tricks out of the bag in fairness to my paying clients ,but agood starting point would be 1-1.25 grams of carbs per pound of lean bodyweight per day

4-eat more protien : that's right...... the building blocks of muscles are amino acids,and you get that from protien. now that i have taught my clients these nutritional tactics,they are on their way to loosing fat and getting lean that's what you want,isn't it?
5-reduce the intake of saturated fat: notice that i was specefic in saying saturated fats. saturated fats are the ones that cause the most problems,healthwise . there are good fats and there are bad fats and there are groups of fats calles essential fatty acids that are just that.they are essential to life as the body can't make them so we must take them with our diet. there are certain fats that i recommend for people to help them lose fats,my clients know but do you ? (fl***ed oil) if you really need to be slim come and see the rest of large secrets

6-water:drink,drink then drink some more,not necessarily in that order. an adult can probably several weeks without eating food,but only few days without drinking water. need i say more? water regulates body temprature,rids the body of waste ,lubricates the joints and provides amedium of chemical reactions that occur in the body.
i hope you and every sad obese can use these info to get better life and health
thank you

amazing
I think there is so much out there we don't yet know about why some people are fat and some people aren't. Obviously, many people eat poorly and/or get little exercise. However, I find it impossible to believe that these are the only causes. If they were, the people who eat the best diets and exercise the most would always be the thinnest people, and it is so obvious that that is not the case. I once read about a doctor who was researching the role of different stomach flora in different individuals, and I truly believe things like this are at work. Can you really look around you and say for certain that all your friends and colleagues with more have so much worse behavior than those with less fat? I think it is so important to investigate these alternate causes because people who are labeled "fat" as kids or teenagers are likely to constantly diet throughout their lives, while people labeled thin will eat intuitively and be healthier and more mentally stable. We have to be more accepting of fat itself- if you are a healthy person with a little bit extra fat, you don't necessarily "need" to lose 5 or 10 lbs just so you can look like the person next to you who doesn't gain fat. People can become *less* healthy by trying to lose that extra 5 or 10 lbs.
