 Correct Portions
Throughout the Day
The Hauser
Bear Diet equals balance! This means that Bears
should not only be balancing their food intake
throughout the day, but balancing the types of food
they consume each day, IE a blend of
carbohydrates,
protein, and fats.
Starting your day with a good bear breakfast
Protein portion
size
Do you know
what 4 ounces of beef or chicken looks like? You
will likely be shocked at just how small 4 ounces of
meat is! It is about the size of a deck of cards.
Carbohydrates
A plate
full of pasta is not a serving! Again,
measure your pasta before you put it on your
plate. Are you eating one cup? Two cups?
Three Cups? A serving is actually about a ˝
cup. Choose carbohydrates with caution.
White carbohydrates, like white bread, white
flour, and sugar, are devoid of nutrients
and fiber, so avoid them. Vegetables, whole
grains, and whole fruits are the healthiest
and most nutrient-rich carbohydrates. Choose
organically grown fruits and vegetables,
when possible since they are grown naturally
without using unhealthy pesticides.
Fat
Fats are
necessary, but can easily be overdone due to how
calorically-dense they are. Get in the know.
Choose
foods low in hydrogenated fats, using good fats such
as organic olive, coconut, and flax seed oils.

The Bear
and Diet Soda
For a lot
of people it is hard to imagine that "calorie free" does not equal healthy!
 As
the
Hauser Diet has proven again and
again, it's not about the calories! What you put inside your body is intended to
nourish. A common drink we are warning people about is
Diet Soda — take one look at the
nutrition label and you will see that there are no calories, but there are also
no nutrients. And some new research is showing that it may be even worse than
you think!
These are the ingredients in a common diet soda:
aspartame, Phosphoric Acid,
Potassium Benzoate (To Protect Taste), Natural Flavors, Citric Acid,
Caffeine-none of these are essential to the diet and further more there are
noted negative side effects with many of these ingredients, especially with
Aspartame which is an
artificial sweetener.
Three recent studies have all linked consumption of 1 or more diet soda drinks
to type 2
diabetes and/or metabolic
syndrome, a deadly condition where someone has multiple metabolic risk factor
such as excess abdominal fat, high blood fats, uncontrolled inflammation, high
blood pressure, and trouble controlling blood sugars. In fact people who consume
diet soda may have anywhere from 36% to 67% increased risk on developing type 2
diabetes and/or metabolic syndrome. With all of the other worries in your life,
why add a serious disease or condition on top of it?
The Hauser Diet encourages the correct type of eating for each individual. It
combines the results of a person's specific blood work with the fresh foods that
we know can nourish and strengthen the body. If you are confused about all of
the information out there and don't know where to start in making changes,
give us a call. We love helping
people sort their way through all of the information out there and find the
right path for their body and their life. |
More Nutrition
With Less Calories
You need to
consume a balance of
complex carbohydrates, protein,
and fat in your daily diet. Depriving yourself of
one or more of these food groups will decrease your
ability to succeed at whatever goal you are trying
to achieve or maintain.
That being said, it all comes down to portions for
Bears. Even if you are eating all the right foods,
having too much or too little of them can also have
an impact on your end objective.
Avoid "empty
calorie" foods
Foods and
drinks with a lot of calories, but not many
nutrients, such as chips, cookies, soda, and
alcohol. |

 Stop
Over-Stimulating Your Thyroid
Eating too
many dairy products, fried foods, sugar and
sugar-containing foods, soft drinks, coffee, pasta,
and white bread products can contribute to the
weight gain, low energy levels, stress, and fatigue
associated with the over-stimulated thyroid.
