Burning That Extra Weight

By Christian Goodman

Fuel or food is of course required to provide us with energy. Like a furnace, we bring in fuel which is transferred to energy.

Stored fat is a result of giving our bodies more fuel or even useless fuel that cannot be burned quickly enough.

Overly processed foods behave like rocks fed to a fire. The rocks just sit in the fire since they can't be used like fuel.

Our bodies are capable of breaking down food we ingest. However, most food we eat does not contain the proper kinds of proteins and vitamins required for the body to recognize it as potential fuel.

When the body fails to find the nutrients it needs to survive, it does the only thing it knows to do. So it triggers the hunger signals in an attempt to get what it needs. You eat more because you feel hungry again. And this vicious cycle repeats itself over and over again.

The end result is often a fat, but pitifully undernourished body. The solution to this part of the problem is to eat more real food. Not fast food, not boxed, canned, or frozen food that has had all the nutrients processed out of it. Real food like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

In addition to not providing the proper nutrients to the body, there's another crucial component that gets overlooked entirely too often. In order for anything to burn, three things are necessary, material to burn, heat to burn it with, and oxygen.

Adequate oxygen is the component that is overlooked in most diet plans. Addressing food intake and heat (exercise) are where most weight loss plans stop.

If you don't think oxygen is essential for fat loss, consider what happens when you cover a candle. If you have a candle in a glass jar, for instance, and you put the lid on it, within seconds the flame flickers and dies. It needs oxygen to continue burning.

Most people need far more oxygen than what is taken in if burning fat is to continue effectively. Lack of activity means we are not breathing deeply and bringing in that oxygen.

My Weight Loss Breeze Program involves the key component of oxygen intake. Incorporating it into your lifestyle will have amazing weight loss results.

A slim body is not so elusive. Just include more nutritious food and the fast, easy exercises from my program.
