Hormonal Balance
The Hormonal Health Diet

The Hormonal Health Diet has is an easy yet effective way to
take weight off and keep it off permanently.  We have seen the
fat-free craze, low-carb, no-carb and the like.  The Hormonal
Health Diet is not a fad diet.  It is an approach to permanently
change your way of eating that will help you achieve hormonal
balance.

The truth is that you can lose weight on almost any diet.  The
real challenge is taking the weight off and keeping it off for the
long haul.  I don’t consider a diet successful if you take off
weight and then gain it all back.  In order to lose weight
permanently, your hormones have to be balanced.  The
Hormonal Health Diet will help you to balance your hormones
and lose weight at the same time.  

The Hormonal Health Diet requires no less than five servings of
fruit and vegetables a day, although you can always have
more.  Your daily meal plan should consist of three meals and
t
wo snacks and includes up to four starch servings such as
beans or whole grains, eight to ten servings of protein
including fish, chicken, lean meat, egg whites or v
egetable
protein
, three dairy servings and two healthy fat servings like
olive oil or nuts.  It ends up being a huge amount of food, but
that’s the point.

You should eat protein at breakfast and your midmorning
snack.  This provides energy and quenches hunger later in the
day.  Lunch and the mid-afternoon snack should be light.  
Dinner is protein, starch and lots of vegetables.  A snack in the
evening is important to fuel your metabolism throughout the
night.  Although it is important to get all t
he meals and snacks
in each day, I cannot overemphasize how important it is to eat
breakfast.  You’ve heard it before: Breakfast is the most
important meal of the day.  This is true.  Having breakfast will
help you to keep insulin levels (and hunger) down.

The key to success on the Hormonal Health Diet is feeling full.  
Why?  You should never feel hungry on a diet.  If you are
hungry, you are miserable, and who wants to feel that way.  
The Hormonal Health Diet is designed for you to feel full most
of the time.  

This diet has helped many people achieve permanent weight
loss.  With time you will become accustomed to this way of
eating and will feel unhealthy if you return to your old eating
style.  

For those who are not accustomed to eating vegetables and
fruits, it will be a challenge to consume the minimum amount.  I
encourage you to try your best to get in all your vegetable,
fruit and protein servings.  These foods will fill you up and
provide the fuel your body needs to maintain a healthy
metabolism and the energy to enjoy daily physical activity.

You’re not hostage to your hormones.  With hormonal balance
you will experience weight loss and increased energy, but the
benefits do not stop there.  Hormonal balance can dramatically
reduce your susceptibility to medical problems and can improve
a wide variety of complaints.
