Losing weight healthily

Obesity leads to many health issues, it's important for us to shred of the excessive fat to keep our body healthy

Obesity a time ticking bomb

If you want to have a healthy body weight, start counting your calories daily

How much calorie do we actually need a day? 

But how do we know how much calories that we have taken in already? 

One of a good app you can download to check for food's calorie is Healthy 365 


The app gives you good food database on all the calorie to give you a rough idea on how much calories that we taking in a day. 

Say for a lady who is age 31-50 at Singapore, with moderate activity, she needs approx 2000 calorie. 

Let's look at some example of the foods she takes

In the Healthy 365 app, you can find the calorie of those food easily

Example:




Losing weight can be simply by choosing a right food. 

Calorie of Chicken breast: 147
Calorie of deep fried chicken breast: 439

Do you see a big differences? 

Once a food is fried by oil, or go through oil the calorie will shoot up. One teaspoon of oil is 120 in calorie. 

Simply make a wise choice in our food, losing weight can be as simple. 

Let's look at calorie of some common foods



Weight management starts with making right choices with the food 

Here are some of the Superfood which is the best for losing weight healthily, without causing any side effects

Most importantly, we need to be a wise consumer to understand the ingredients, whereby some weight loss products lead to kidney failure. Read up more here

1. Soy bean

Protein from Soy simply convert the fats into muscle and speed up fat decomposition

2. American Ginseng

American Ginseng simply help to give energy while we are monitoring calorie intake, so we are less tired

3. Fibers
Fibers helps to give full filing and thus make us feel full longer. Overall, it gives us sufficient fibers to help to prevent constipation too. 

Of course, to lose weight, we must control our calorie intake too. 

If we are going to lose 1 kg a week, we must maintenance our calorie intake at 800 a day. So our body will convert the existing fats into calorie, thus clearing the storage. 

Similar to a house's storage. If our storage is full at the moment, we have to buy lesser stuff to put into the storage, and at the same time we use up the existing items in the storage to clear it all. 

4. Collagen 

Collagen is important too for weight loss. As when we loss weight, the muscle may becomes sagging. With the support of collagen, our skin and muscle will become more firm up

However, not all the collagen products can be taken safely. 

Letting our body to self produce collagen will not burden our body.
