after the age of 50

Dieting should be important for people of all ages. However for the older generation, it is a necessity. And dieting after age 50 is of paramount importance. There are many who believe that burning calories depends entirely on getting enough exercise. But facts reveal otherwise. Exercise or physical activity uses only 25 to 35 percent of the calories. 5 to 10 percent go towards processing the food we eat and the rest 60 to 65 percent of calories go towards the basal metabolic rate (BMR) i.e. the energy required to keep you alive even while you are sleeping.

With age the human body needs less and less energy to sustain activities. BMR slows down, and because of this, fewer calories are burned. Other physical changes accompany it, like loss in muscle mass, declining strength and aerobic capacity. Thus, if your diet still contains the ingredients of earlier years, then you are in for trouble. Dieting after age 50 is a very tricky thing. You must take enough proteins, vitamins and carbohydrates to give you the necessary energy, but also not overdo it. Remember, after you hit the magical 50, your body needs 5 percent fewer calories with each passing decade.

Banana Diet

Here's an easy to use version that will give you slow, steady weight loss. This is not an extreme diet like you may think.

You may think that the banana diet consists of eating just bananas all day. Wrong! Obviously that isn't very practical or smart. There is just 1 main rule to this diet and another general rule...

Rule #1: Eat 1-2 bananas before each meal... minimum of 3 times a day.

Very simple, huh? Not much to think about. If you eat, you're going to eat 1-2 bananas before your meal. Practical, easy, healthy, and not much to remember.

Before breakfast, eat 2 bananas. Before lunch, eat 2 bananas. Before dinner, eat 1 banana. So you eat 5 total bananas a day.

Rule #2: Eat whatever you want for meals.

This rule is simple... eat whatever you want, just as long as you eat 2 bananas before breakfast, 2 bananas before lunch, and 1 banana before dinner. Obviously eating healthier than normal would help your weight loss efforts even more, but it's not 100% necessary.

'fresh diet' from the garden

I see that many people are searching for the 'fresh diet' today on Google. Oh boy another new diet trend to confuse us all. What is the fresh diet? Well this is another of those diets where your food is prepared and delivered to you. The difference being, that all the food is certified to be fresh, healthy and prepared by chefs. The average cost of the fresh diet is said to be 50.00 – 60.00 a day.

You heard me right. That's 50.00 – 60.00 a day per person. Celebrities are raving about this diet and no wonder. They are the only ones who can afford it. But do not fear, I can show you how to come up with a fresh diet of your own for much less. Nothing is fresher than just picked garden produce. You don't need to be a chef to toss together a nice fresh diet salad from the garden.Salad is not the only fresh diet food you can make from the garden either. How about some sauces made from fresh herbs and your own just picked tomatoes? Or what about some fried green tomatoes?

Ingredients :

Two or three sliced green tomatoes

1 cup yellow cornmeal

1 tsp. salt

½ tsp cayenne pepper

¼ cup vegetable oil

Instructions :

Mix the cornmeal, salt and cayenne pepper together and spread on a plate.

Coat tomato slices on both sides by placing in the mixture and patting gently. Set to one side.

Heat vegetable oil in a small shallow pan over medium heat.

Eating fresh is nothing new to gardeners. We have been doing it for centuries. This fresh diet trend is nothing more than another money making scheme.

The best part about customizing your own diet with fresh foods from the garden is that you know what you like and how you like it. My pet peeve with fancy chefs is that darn balsamic vinegar crap. Do they have to put it on everything? It may be good for you but I'll take my own apple cider vinegar any day of the week.

Fellow gardeners, I implore you, stop wasting your money on these silly fad diets and get back to nature. Use your garden produce to create your own fresh diet. I guarantee it will be easier to stick to than the trend of the moment. It's also much less complicated, and most likely better for you. After all, isn't that why you are growing a garden in the first place?

Enjoy!
