Training like Rocky!

A revolutionary new weight-loss program makes you workout and sweat at 15,000 feet in a High Altitude Chamber... Hey, all obese people... disheartened by diets whose weight-loss promises bounce back? Desperately considering liposuction or bariatric surgery next? Take heart, you can now lose weight in 21 days by training like world class athletes at high altitude in South Mumbai with Qi Train 21 — a revolutionary new weight-loss program conducted in a specialised High Altitude Chamber at Qi Lifecare, the gym and wellness centre at Eros Cinema building, Churchgate.      The chamber is located on the first floor, but the altitude within is that of a mountain, you could be training at 15,000 feet or 5,000 metres above sea level… where the oxygen content is significantly low, and where even mild exercise leads to increased cardiovascular fitness and accelerated fat loss. The condition is known as hypoxia. Even simple living at high altitude has been exploited by champion athletes (Muhammad Ali did it in his time and Sylvester Stallone for Rocky IV) to enhance their performances.      The program involves 21 halfhour sessions over five weeks. The training is not strenuous. And theworkouts, based on individual heart rate parameters, are created after an extensive pre-program physical evaluation. The sessions are fun. They are supervised by a young team certified by the prestigious American College of Sports Medicine. And include an exciting combination of technologies including the internationally-renowned Vibrogym. This is a vibrating platform that helps conserve and build muscle mass even as it promotes fat reduction. It is being successfully used by fitness conscious celebrities around the world ranging from rockstars to astronauts!      How does Qi Train 21 work? Very simply, the reduced oxygen in the chamber makes it difficult to exercise at the same intensity as you would in a regular gym, and you are forced to use more muscle fibres to workout... thereby burning more calories in the same time. The heart and lungs are encouraged to work harder. And the body's SAO2, that is the saturation of oxygen in the arteries — which is 97-98% at sea level, drops because in hypoxic conditions the body utilises oxygen more efficiently. This program substantially increases your caloric burn even after the session. In 30 minutes, you would burn double the number of calories than a conventional workout. The hypoxic air enhances the body's respiratory, cardiovascular and oxygen utilization systems, apart from stimulating the fat-burning process.      "The High Altitude Chamber is an amazing fat burner with no compromise on safety because the pressure within is not changed, only the oxygen is reduced, and this combination of mainstream science and exercise acts as a catalyst to a longterm weight loss fix," said Qi Train 21 programme director Ketan Ashar. "The results achieved have been incredible; our highest weight loss was 12 kg in five weeks, but most importantly, this 39-year-old gentleman today is far stronger and fitter than ever before. It's a 21-day kickstart into healthy living. Conducted at an altitude of 15,000 feet in South Mumbai... and you're just minutes away from home at the end of it."  Qi Train 21, Eros Cinema Building, 1st Floor, Churchgate, Mumbai 400020.

Eat Less Rice!

The human body was never meant to consume rice! Our genes have hardly changed in more than 30,000 years. However, our food choices and lifestyle have changed dramatically. The caveman would hardly recognise our food or way of life. 

Caveman food was never cooked as fire was not yet tamed. Thus, he ate only those foods that you can eat without treatment with or by fire. He ate fruits, vegetables, fish (sushi anyone?), eggs, nuts and meat. Yes, even meat! You can even eat meat raw if you were starving in the forest. You have the necessary enzymes to digest meat. 

However, rice, like wheat and corn, cannot be eaten raw. It must be cooked. Even if you were starving in the desert, you cannot eat rice in the raw form. This is because we do not have the system of enzymes to break rice down. You were never meant to eat rice. To make matters worse, you not only eat rice, but also make it the bulk of your food. 

In some parts of Asia , rice forms up to 85% of the plate. Even if you take rice, keep it to a minimum. Remember, it is only for your tongue - not your body. Actually, rice and other grains like wheat and corn are actually worse than sugar. There are many reasons: 

Rice becomes sugar - lots of it! 
This is a fact that no nutritionist can deny: rice is chemically no different from sugar. One bowl of cooked rice is the caloric equal of 10 teaspoons of sugar. This does not matter whether it is white, brown or herbal rice.Brown rice is richer in fibre, some B vitamins and minerals but it is still the caloric equal of 10 teaspoons of sugar. To get the same 10 teaspoons of sugar, you need to consume lots of kangkong-10 bowls of it. 

Rice is digested to become sugar. 
Rice cannot be digested before it is thoroughly cooked. However, when thoroughly cooked, it becomes sugar and spikes circulating blood sugarwithin half an hour-almost as quickly as it would if you took a sugar candy. Rice is very low in the 'rainbow of anti-oxidants. ' 

This complete anti-oxidant rainbow is necessary for the effective and safe utilisation of sugar. Fruits come with a sugar called fructose. However, they are not empty calories as the fruit is packed with a whole host of other nutrients that help its proper assimilation and digestion. 

Rice has no fibre. 
The fibre of the kangkong fills you up long before your blood sugar spikes. This is because the fibre bulks and fills up your stomach. Sincewhite rice has no fibre, you end up eating lots of 'calorie dense' food before you get filled up. Brown rice has more fibre but still the same amount of sugar. 

Rice is tasteless-sugar is sweet.. 
There is only so much that you can eat at one sitting. How many teaspoons of sugar can you eat before you feel like throwing up? Could you imagine eating 10 teaspoons of sugar in one seating? 

Rice is always the main part of the meal. 
While sugar may fill your dessert or sweeten your coffee, it will never be the main part of any meal. You could eat maybe two to three teaspoons of sugar at one meal. However, you could easily eat the equal value of two to three bowls (20-30 teaspoons) of sugar in one meal. I am always amused when I see someone eat sometimes five bowls of rice (equals 50 teaspoons of sugar) and then asks for tea tarik kurang manis! 

There is no real 'built in' mechanism for us to prevent overeating of rice: 
How much kangkong can you eat? 
How much fried chicken can you eat? 
How much steamed fish can you eat? 
Think about that! 

In one seating, you cannot take lots of chicken, fish or cucumber, but you can take lots of rice. Eating rice causes you to eat more salt. As rice is tasteless, you tend to consume more salt-another villain when it comes to high blood pressure. You tend to take more curry that has salt to help flavor rice. We also tend to consume more ketchup and soy sauce which are also rich in salt. 

Eating rice causes you to drink less water. 
The more rice you eat, the less water you will drink as there is no mechanism to prevent the overeating of rice. Rice, wheat and corn come hidden in our daily food. As rice is tasteless, it tends to end up in other foods that substitute rice like rice flour, noodles and bread. We tend to eat the hidden forms which still get digested into sugar. 
 
Rice, even when cooked, is difficult to digest. 
Can't eat raw rice? Try eating rice half cooked. Contrary to popular belief, rice is very difficult to digest. It is 'heavy stuff'. If you have problems with digestion, try skipping 
rice for a few days. You will be amazed at how the problem will just go away. 

Rice prevents the absorption of several vitamins and minerals. 
Rice when taken in bulk will reduce the absorption of vital nutrients like zinc, iron and the B vitamins. 

Are you a rice addict? Going rice-less may not be easy but you can go rice-less. Eating less rice could be lot easier than you think. Here are some strategies that you can pursue in your quest to eat less rice: 

                                                               Eat less rice-cut your rice by half. 
Barry Sears, author of the Zone Diet, advises 'eating rice like spice'. Instead, increase your fruits and vegetables. Take more lean meats and fish.. You can even take more eggs and nuts. 

Have 'riceless' meals. 
Take no rice or wheat at say, breakfast.. Go for eggs instead. 

Go on 'riceless' days. 
Go 'western' once a week. 

Take no rice and breads for one day every week. 
That can't be too difficult. Appreciate the richness of your food. Go for taste, colours and smells. Make eating a culinary delight. Enjoy your food in the original flavours. 

Avoid the salt shaker or ketchup. 
You will automatically eat less rice. 

Eat your fruit dessert before (Yes! No printing error) your meals.
The fibre rich fruits will 'bulk up' in your stomach. Thus, you will eat less rice and more fruits. 

It's your life. Decide what you want to eat! But eat less rice!

The Importance of Ayurvedic

Wherever we are on this earth at this moment, we can see and feel how bad the impact of modern life is damaging the natural environment and our lives. As modern humans we also have an understanding that the quality of our health is affected by the negative impacts, such as air pollution, water, food and lifestyle is not healthy.

In the search for balance of life discourse, there is the health contribution to the balance of the mind. Apparently this has very important role. People in unhealthy physical conditions usually think negatively too much, feel distracted, be reluctant or lazy to do anything due to their conditions.

Ayurveda is a holistic lifestyle system that teaches the practical details of the arrangement of food, body work, rest periods, and work, which aims to achieve balance of body, mind, and soul.

Thus, Ayurveda is not just medicine but a healthy lifestyle. The basic principle of ayurveda is to prevent diseases by balancing body, mind, soul and environment.

Ayurvedic health concept has been covering the entire system of human life that makes ayurveda as a system of treatment and comprehensive health care in the world. Many medications commonly used by us today come from plants. According to various sources, at least one of the basic ingredients of plant material forms part of several prescription drugs available in the world.

Specifically, ayurveda uses plants to fix the imbalance that occurs in the human body before they become disease. By combining several kinds of plants or herbs to get benefit of the drug or therapeutic value, it is commonly known as herbal medicine, Ayurveda has been proven capable of overcoming various health problems that occurred in the human body.

Humans have been known ayurvedic herbal medicine based on health since ancient times. Early primitive men discovered many things which not only provide remedy, but also food, shelter and clothing.

Ayurveda is a health science concept or recorded in the "veda", the book of the world's oldest literature. Ayurveda is the science of life that has been applied since 1000 BC by the rishi (wise man, sage) India to maintain health. In Sanskrit, “Ayur” means life and the “Veda” means knowledge, so that "ayurvedic" literally means Science of Life.

Ayurvedic principles, or power of life or dosha is divided into three; pitta, kapha, and vata. Dosha is in the material universe, including humans. The term dosha indicates the human body's metabolic type and the type of mind-body (the mind and body). In ayurvedic medicine, the determination of the type of dosha is the most important stage. To determine the type of person, ayurvedic practitioners typically conduct observations and provide a few questions, then just do the stages of therapy.

Kapha, pitta and vata are in every human being with a different level. Usually people have one dominant dosha and one accompanist dosha. Differences combination makes every individual dosha has a personality and a different health.

Dosha imbalance is the first sign that the mind and body is not perfectly coordinated. When disturbed dosha balance, the body will become vulnerable to pressure from outside, such as viruses, bacteria, pollution, and stress. Therefore, ayurvedic treatment focused on methods to balance dosha.

Today, ayurveda has been widely used in modern medicine systems. This was triggered by a number of research-conducted scientific research and has proved how effective the role of plants or herbs on human health.

Probably, ayurveda is the only science where blood cancers or leukemia are cured, without side effects. Pediatric leukemia is recovering amazingly faster, often few weeks time for perfect control. Advanced nations are spending billions of dollars in research for a cure. However, recurrence of most types of cancers is a general phenomenon. Scientists can research how ayurvedic acts selectively, inducing cell death in only the malignant cells and not affecting neighboring healthy cells.

According to the World Health Organization, almost 80 percent of the world's population, or 4 billion people now use some aspects of herbal medicine in their health care process. Common elements in the American Indian medicine are traditional oriental medicine, naturopathy, homeopathy and ayurvedic medicine herbs.

Nowadays, most commercial drugs using substances derived from plants for the treatment of high blood pressure, heart disease, asthma, pain, and other problems,. Ephedrine is used to treat the symptoms of asthma and other respiratory problems. It is the active ingredient in ephedrine, a traditional Chinese herb.

The foxglove plant is another example pointing to the use of modern medicine herbal extraction. The leaf of this plant is powdered digitalis to stimulate the heart and provide assistance to a large number of heart patients.

Some of the herbs used in ayurveda successful in reducing diabetes and cholesterol. In recent years, there is growth in the use of herbal medicines because of the success stories which replaced Prozac for treating mild depression. In the United States, the popularity of Ginseng and Ginkgo Biloba increases due to the healing effect.
