In
recent years, the percentage of fat Women in America have been on an
increase. As at 2007, 60% of Women living in America were reported to be
Obese.Out of that percentage, 40% were people over or at the age of
fifty (50).Older Women that are obese are more vulnerable to diseases,
compared to younger women. Diseases such as, Type 2 diabetes,
Obstructive sleep apnea, certain types of cancer, heart diseases and
osteoarthritis. Women over the age of fifty have a high rate of disease
attack due to overweight. It is therefore necessary that the amount of
calorie intake should be low. Moreover, women above the age of fifty
have low metabolism rate which results to fatness.
Furthermore, a
woman metabolism decreases with an increase in age and certainly, losing
weight becomes a difficult task for them. Also a recent study published
in the 2013 edition of a
clinical intervention in ageing reports
that, "older overweight women who loss weight, receive vital health
benefit" such as, reduce chronic disease attack. Women over 50 years
require 1000 to 1200 calories per day for perfect weight lose. The
national Heart, Lung and Blood Institute state that, while inactive
overweight women need 1000-1600 calories to loss weight, active over
weight need 1200-1600 calories each day.
In addition to maintaining a healthy weight, women over the age of 50 should Endeavour to eat the following diet.
Eat Unprocessed Food:
I have always preferred eating raw food, but I never heard the ability
to, because of the usual soar taste, until the day I took a bold step
and started eating it. I was eating closely to about 55-65% raw food,
but I just needed extra push if I was to loss weight. So I decided to
move it up to 80-90% raw vegan food and I got that push after being on a
program called,
The 4 cycle fat solution.
Just as you know, if a cooked seed and an uncooked seed are grown
together, you would discover that the cooked seed would never grow,
while the uncooked seed is the opposite. This is because the cooked seed
have been subjected to a very high temperature like 120 degree celsius,
to the extent that no nutrient is in the seed anymore. This is the same
thing that happens when you eat cooked food all the time. Because
cooked food has been subjected to a very high temperature, most or all
of it nutrients have been lost.What you are now eating is without no
nutrient but lots of calories.So even if you don't like eating raw
product, just try as much as you can and you would see that very soon
you would get used to it has I did. An example of such food is whole
grain.
Eat Fruits and Vegetables: Diet
high in fruits and vegetables may reduce the risk of cancer and other
chronic diseases, according to the center of disease control and
prevention. This is no surprise, considering the fact that fruits and
veggies are good source of nutrient and powerhouse which are rich in
vitamins,minerals, antioxidant and fiber, yet considerable low in
calories. Example of such good food is pomegranate.
Soft Exercise:
As older women, you don't need to participate in all kinds of exercise
program. Just take a walk for about 20-45 minutes five times in a week,
and you would see the miraculous way your fat would be burnt away. At
least in a week if you take 7000 calories and you are able to burn 3500
calories, then that would help to reduce weight, gives you a good shape,
like that of 20 years old lady and enables you to live longer and
healthier.
In conclusion, for you to loss weight, you need to do
the things I have mentioned above and always have a good mindset. Don't
think much, because thinking would make your work futile and increase
your disease rate.
