Diane Irons: Beauty Inside and Out

CBN.com – DIET FREE SECRETS TO WEIGHT LOSS
Diane Irons believes you approach beauty, diet, and fashion as self-care -- a form of self-respect. What you put in and on your body should make you feel as good as it makes you look. Otherwise it has no place in your life. She shares some of her no diet weight loss secrets to change the way you look at food, so that you'll be healthier and stay thinner.

• Ice Water - Drinking ice water forces your system to rev up your metabolism to keep the body's temperature from dropping. For example, if you drink eight 12-ounce glasses of ice water a day, your body will burn an additional 200 calories. Water can also provide a feeling of fullness, help the kidneys and liver do their job, and release toxins.
• Seeds - To maximize your intake of nutrients, add a lot of seed-containing fruits and vegetables such as apples, pears, and bananas, as well as seeds themselves (like sesame or sunflower seeds) to your diet. Seeds are a great source of fiber, allowing foods to go through your body quickly.
• Spicy Foods – Scientists have discovered that chili peppers, salsa, mustard, and ginger can actually raise your metabolic rate. The result is that you can burn calories much faster; up to 45 percent faster than that of a bland diet. How? These foods create a thermogenic burn, meaning they help the body to produce "heat," thus burning off calories.

HERBS THAT HELP SHED POUNDS
Diane says you can add supplements, teas, and foods to your diet that will help your weight-loss efforts go smoothly. She recommends you check with your doctor before adding any herb to your daily diet.

• Alfalfa aids digestion and acts as a diuretic.
• Burdock improves fat metabolism and has diuretic effects.
• Cardamom improves circulation and digestion. A thermogenic herb.
• Cinnamon creates a thermogenic burn.
• Dandelion Root aids fat metabolism by affecting the liver.
• Fennel is a diuretic that reduces hunger and improves energy.
• Garcinia Cambogia helps control the appetite, makes meals more filling, and aids digestion.
• Kola Nut is a stimulant that decreases appetite and aids in the metabolism of fat.

FOOD AS A BEAUTY AID
Blueberries promote healthy collagen for fewer wrinkles. Less constriction of veins and faster healing.

• Eggs are high in the amino acid cysterin, necessary for the growth and maintenance of the body's tissues.
• Mushrooms are rich in selenium, an antioxidant that may help lower skin cancer risks.
• Soy is packed with powerful antioxidants that interfere with free-radical damage. Soy also prevents heart disease, diabetes, and is also reported to cut breast cancer rates and to lower blood cholesterol.
