comer frutas con el estomago vacio

APRENDA UNA MAS !

La fruta es el alimento perfecto, requiere una minima cantidad de energía para ser digerida y le da lo máximo a su cuerpo de retorno

Es el único alimento que hace trabajar a su cerebro .

La fruta, es principalmente frutose (que puede ser transformada con facilidad en glucosa). En la mayoría de las veces es 90-95% agua. Eso significa que ella está limpiando y alimentando al mismo tiempo.


El único problema con las frutas, es que la mayoría de las personas no saben como comerlas, de forma que permita que su cuerpo asimile efectivamente sus nutrientes.

Se deben comer las frutas siempre con el estómago vacío. ¿Por qué? La razón es que las frutas en principio, no son digeridas en el estómago, son digeridas en el intestino delgado.


Las frutas pasan rápidamente por el estómago, de ahí pasan al intestino, donde liberan sus azúcares. Mas si hubiere carne, papas o almidones en el estómago, las frutas quedan presas y ellas comienzan a fermentar.


Si usted comió una fruta de postre, luego de una cena y pasó el resto de la noche con pesadez en el estómago y un desagradable sabor en la boca, es porque usted no comió de la manera adecuada. Se debe comer las frutas, siempre con el estómago vacío.

Usted no debe tomar jugo envasado en lata o en recipientes de vidrio. ¿por qué no? La mayoría de las veces el jugo es calentado en el proceso y su estructura original se vuelve ácida.

¿Desea hacer la más valiosa compra que pudiera? Compre un extractor.

Usted podrá ingerir el jugo extraído con el extractor como si fuese fruta, con el estómago vacío. El jugo será digerido tan de prisa, que usted podrá comer un refrigerio quince o veinte minutos después.

El Dr. William Castillo, jefe de la famosa clínica cardiológica Farmington de Massachusetts, declaró, que la fruta es el mejor alimento que podemos comer para protegernos contra las enfermedades del corazón.

Dice que las frutas contienen bioflavonoides, que evitan que la sangre se espese y obstruya las arterias. También fortalecen los vasos capilares, y los vasos capilares débiles, casi siempre provocan sangrados internos y ataques cardíacos

Ahora, una cosa final que me gustaría que siempre mantuviese en su mente sobre las frutas.

¿Cómo se debe comenzar el día?
¿Qué se debe comer en el desayuno?
¿Usted piensa que es una buena idea salir de la cama y llenar su sistema con una tremenda cantidad de alimentos (principalmente café y pan blanco con mantequilla) que le llevará el día entero para digerir? Claro que no..

Lo que usted quiere es alguna cosa que sea de fácil digestión, frutas que el cuerpo puede absorber de inmediato y que ayuda a limpiarlo.

Al levantarse, durante el día, o cuando sea confortablemente posible, coma sólo frutas frescas y jugos hechos en el momento.


Mantenga este esquema hasta por lo menos el medio día diariamente.

Cuanto mas tiempo queden solo las frutas en su cuerpo, mayor oportunidad de ayudar a limpiarlo.

Si usted empieza a cambiar los 'hábitos' con las que acostumbra llenar su cuerpo al iniciar el día, sentirá un nuevo torrente de vitalidad y energía tan intensa que no lo podrá creer.

Inténtelo durante los próximos diez días y véalo por si mismo

Los chinos y los japoneses beben té caliente (de preferencia te verde) durante las comidas. Nunca agua helada o bebidas heladas. Deberíamos adoptar este hábito.

'Los líquidos helados durante o después de las comidas, solidifican los componentes oleosos de los alimentos, retardando la digestión. Reaccionan con los ácidos digestivos y serán absorbidos por el intestino más rápido que los alimentos sólidos, demarcando el intestino y endureciendo las grasas, que permanecerán por más tiempo en el intestino.

Déle valor a un té caliente, o hasta agua caliente después de una comida. Facilita la digestión y ablanda las grasas para ser expelidas más rápidamente, lo que también ayudará a adelgazar

Un cardiólogo, dice que si cada persona que recibe es correo lo envía a 10 personas, podrá tener la certeza de que salvará por lo menos una vida.

Yo ya hice mi parte.

SELF-MASSAGE

Just a little of your time for yourself

A SIMPLE SELF-MASSAGE

As part of the Ayurvedic daily routine, it's recommended to do a self-massage with oil each morning before getting into a warm shower.
We rub the oil into our skin every day to nourish and protect the skin, as well as loosen the ama (toxic residue) that accumulates in our tissues due to stress. The warm water from the shower helps to open up the pores in the skin, allowing the oil to penetrate deep into the tissues.
The whole process shouldn't take you longer than five minutes, When I'm in a rush, I can do it in 60 seconds.
Supplies needed:

- An old towel to stand on
- A plastic bottle of massage oil (you will only use a few tablespoons of oil each morning)
- A sink full of hot water (optional, but recommended if you like using warm oil)

Pour a tablespoon or so of oil into the palm of one hand and rub it between both hands.
Start with the scalp. Rake your oily fingertips through your hair to get a layer of oil onto the scalp. Vigorously "shampoo" the oil into the scalp,moving the scalp in all directions.
Next, apply a little bit of oil to the face, throat and neck, rubbing the oil into the skin. Try some little circles with hour fingertips over the forehead, into the temples, around the cheeks and jaw.
Do a couple strokes under the cheekbone from the bridge of the nose to the ears. Massage some oil into the ears, Be quick but make sure you touch everything once.
As for the rest of the body, the general guidelines are as follows: long strokes (back and forth, or up and down) over the long muscles (e.g. the biceps triceps, forearms, thighs, calves) and circular strokes over the joints (e.g. the shoulders, elbows, knees)
There's really no wrong way to do this- follow your intuition. Cover as much of the body as you can with oil, and rub it in, creating friction and heat between the palms of your hands and the skin. If you have time, do one or two strokes up and down each finger (and toe), and use your thumbs for 10-20 seconds to dig into the bottoms of the feet.
Once your body is covered with oil, step into the warm shower and relax for a minute in the heat. You can shampoo your hair as usual, buy just use soap where necessary, leaving a layer of oil on most of the skin.
Ye, you will get oil stains on your towels. Your bath towels will no last as long if you do this every day, and you will need to by new ones more frequently. But so what? they 're just towels. It's more important to nourish and protect your skin.
