Hot Fitness Tip of the Week
Taking diet pills may help you to lose weight at least in the short term but they can have serious side effects. Most over-the-counter diet pills contain a diuretic drug. All these diuretic drug increase the output of urine so that you lose water from your system temporarily. These drugs can also cause loss of essential minerals. On the other hand, diet pills based on bran and other types of fibre swell up and help you feel full but will not burn extra fat. They have also been known to cause blockage in the throat or intestine if consumed with inadequate quantities of liquid. The drugs most commonly used to suppress appetite are similar to amphetamines and have many disadvantages such as disturbed sleep depression and weight gain when you eventually stop taking them. They can also be addictive. Diet foods and drinks may help you to eat fewer calories and less fat but it will still be your overall calorie intake that counts. The best way to lose weight and keep it off is to exercise regularly and choose a lowfat low sugar diet.

I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. – Agatha Christie

Article of the Week
The anti-anxiety diet: Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress. It helps one deal with a tense situation in the office, study harder for an exam, keep focused on an important speech. In general, it helps one cope. But when anxiety becomes an excessive, irrational dread of everyday situations, it has become a disabling disorder. Effective treatments for anxiety disorders are available, and research is yielding new, improved therapies that can help most people with anxiety disorders lead productive, fulfilling lives. Although tension and daily stresses are unavoidable, you can relieve tension and manage stress better by what you do and don't eat. Here are some ideas for a healthier diet. 1. Cut out caffeine. Caffeine belongs to a class of chemicals called methylxanthines, which have a drug like stimulant effect on the body. Too many fizzy drinks, coffee, tea or chocolate can overwhelm your nervous system and take you from heightened alertness over the edge into nervousness and, in rare cases, bring on panic attacks. Even if you think you can't survive without your caffeine fix, try eliminating it for a day and see how you feel. As a central nervous system stimulant, caffeine increases brain activity when taken in doses of 50 to 100 mg or more per day. This is the amount found in one cup of coffee or black tea. When used on an occasional basis, a cup of coffee can have a pleasantly stimulating effect. For women with anxiety and panic episodes due to emotional triggers, caffeine can aggravate the frequency and severity of their episodes. Caffeine taken in excess (more than four or five cups per day) can dramatically increase anxiety, irritability, and mood swings. Even small amounts can make susceptible women jittery. After the initial jolt, women with anxiety symptoms find that caffeine intake makes them more tired.
