¤ 7-Keto Benefits a Weight Loss Regimen

By John MacNamara 
As a naturally occurring active metabolite of the hormone DHEA, 7-Keto-DHEA plays an important role in several processes in the body. 7-Keto-DHEA levels decline throughout life, but levels can be brought back to normal with supplementation. Users receive classic 7-Keto benefits including lower cortisol, improved immune function and an easier time losing weight and keeping it off.
How 7-Keto-DHEA Works
7-Keto-DHEA increases the rate of weight loss primarily by increasing body temperature through the process of thermogenesis. Thermogenesis is also increased by other supplements, such as DHEA, caffeine and ephedrine, but these substances often carry unwanted side effects, such as high blood pressure. Enhancement of thermogenesis, without the side effects, is one of the most important 7-Keto benefits.

¤ Lose Weight - Types of Weight Loss Diets

By Harry Aaron 

There are publications of diets that are deceiving and clearly prejudicial to your health, and that are only after some financial benefit. In this article, we will try to point out those diets that will not provide any benefit and are only meant to make use lose liquids and achieve a bounce effect when we leave the diet.
The diets we are really interested on are those that help use lose fat, which is what losing weight is all about. Losing weight is not losing liquids since, only in extreme cases, they are not the cause of our overweight. On the other hand, it is easy to get back the liquids we lose by following an inadequate diet which causes the scary bounce effect. However, if what we have lost is weight, to get it back all we have to do is start eating inadequately again, ingesting higher calories than what we use in our life style.

¤ Juice Diet - Detox and Weight Loss?

 By R. Sharma

Juice diet is a popular diet that many people try to follow - Most people follow it as a detox diet for weight loss. It has many forms based on lemon, orange, carrot, vegetables and other possibilities. It is basically a fad diet or crash diet, involves intake of fruit juices, and water only. It is an extreme diet form, as no solid food is consumed during the length of the diet. Is the juice diet healthy? Does it detox your system?
So, does it help weight loss? Think of it this way. The point of the juice detox diet for weight loss is to consume fewer calories than your current metabolic rate (The number of calories your body burns on a daily basis). With the calorie deficit, you assume it will help you lose weight. But is there really a calorie deficit in your juice diet? Or are you consuming too many calories on your juice diet?
Say, you are on an orange juice diet - Is this fresh juice or packaged juice? If its packaged orange juice (and most packaged juices are sweetened), and you're drinking 8-10 glasses of orange fruit juice, then you might be consuming a large amount of sugar with it. Sugar makes you store fat. So, stay off the package fruit juice.
Now, if you are on an unsweetened fresh fruit juice detox diet or vegetable juice detox diet, then you know you're not consuming the extra sugar calories but fewer calories. If weight loss was just a game of calories, then this could possibly work, but there are some complications to it.
