Japan's Rx To Control Weight!

                       Eat Like The Japanese! 

In some parts of Japan, an incredible 75% of the people are at their ideal weight,
now compare that to America-where 30% of the people are at their ideal weight.
How do the Japanese do it?
A diet rich in vegetables and rice.
Very little meat.
Taking their time to eat and enjoy their meals.
No desserts 
Chopsticks- (you'll eat less and eat slowly with them)
Well, it's all of the above. plus something else.

That something else:
Soup!
That's right- They begin meals with soup and yes, that includes breakfast.
Not just any soup, but broth-based soup. Broth-based soup fills the stomach
and slows digestion so effectively, people who eat before meals will automatically
slash their calorie intake by 20%.
And if you, start each meal with a bowl of soup, you can expect to lose up to
40 lbs. in a year.

That's it- Are you ready to try the soup before a meal diet?
If so, go to google.com and type in how to make a broth-based soup,
or go to Mrbreakfast.com for a whole bevy of soups and ways to make them.

Good Luck!

Asian Rx For A Blemish-Free Complexion!

                                   Looking Younger Like Asian Women! 
It's a mystery that a lot of people have been trying to solve for
some time now...how do Asian women manage to look 10 to 20 yrs.
younger than their actual age?

Well, some say it's the diet, (mostly vegetables, fish, rice and green tea)
some say the hard work, and of course others say it's genetics.
No one is really sure, but there is something that a lot of Asian
women do, and it could be the reason for their youthful skin. 
The reason: Body Brushing or Body Buffing.

What is it?
Simply using a brush or washcloth to brush off the dead, dry skin. 
In a past post, we told you about body brushing, so today-we'll
focus on the wash cloth Rx.
 Let the steam from your shower soften your skin for a min. or two,
and then use a soapy "Korean" washcloth, starting with
your face, then the soles of your feet and back up toward your heart.
And use a little extra pressure on the lymph-gland areas-(below the jaw, 
under the arms, and at the top of the thighs).

And what is a "Korean" washcloth? It's a washcloth with a coarse texture
that whisks away dead skin cells that dull and age the skin.
Another tip: When you move to the soles of your feet, and back up towards
your heart focusing on the lymph glands, you encourage the elimination
of toxins that can lead to blemishes on your face, back and other areas of the
body. Plus, it rejuvenates the skin.

Now, that you one of the secrets that keep Asian women looking decades
younger, here are a few more tips.
a) Rewash the washcloth after each use. An unwashed cloth, only invites
bacteria.
b) Where do you find "Korean" washcloths? At Asian markets, Asian beauty
supply shops, or go online to AsianFoodGrocer.com or call 1-888-482-2742.
c) And can you guess which American celebrity uses this washcloth body buffing
to stay youthful? Give up-It's Cindy Crawford! it must be working- she'll be
50 in 2016.

Good Luck!

Get Slim Secrets From Around The World!

                         Skinny Secrets From Overseas!
Ever wonder how the people of France, China, Japan seem to stay slim,
even with KFC, Burger King and McDonalds making their presence felt?
Wonder no more, listed below are their secrets...

1) China-
The Chinese eat their carbs. Carbs are the centerpiece of each meal.
Unlike America, where meat is the centerpiece. The carb of choice:
Rice! And it's not smothered in gravy and meat and served with biscuits.
No- the Chinese eat their rice with vegetables. Eat rice a few times a week
and you're 25% more likely to be thin. And even better: You'll enjoy lower
cholesterol rates and better blood pressure.
Rx for Americans: Make it brown and serve it with vegetables and
use meat like a garnish.
2) France-
It's Wine. No surprise here. Most American women cut out wine
when trying to lose weight, in France they drink it everyday, yet are slimmer
than their American counterparts. Please explain this...French women wait
until their food arrives and then drink, and they stop at one or two glasses.
Rx for Americans: Don't drink on an empty stomach and stop at 1 or 2 glasses.
3) Japan-
Have a bowl of soup before a meal. Why soup? Soup fills the stomach and slows
digestion. It must be working-75% of the Japanese are at their ideal weight.
Rx for Americans: Make it a soup that's broth-based and not one with creams,
and meats. Having soup before two meals can help you lose 40 lbs. in less than a yr.

That's It- Tomorrow- Learn how the people of Argentina, Gambia and Denmark
maintain their weight.

Good Luck!
