All those BBQs and summer pool and beach parties with so much food! Everyone goes to at least a few of those each summer. Well, the food your splurge on while at those fun-filled events may be less than helpful for your weight loss goals during the summer months.
The usual offerings include plenty of chips, fried foods, soft drinks and liquor. With all those temptations, it’s definitely easy to forget about your weight loss program and healthy nutritional plan. But there are alternatives to those unhealthy, unhelpful foods!
Stick with fresh fruits and produce during the summer months! Why? They are in season, which means they’re of the best quality during the summer, which also means that they’re the cheapest during the summer. These fresh fruits and produce provides plenty of nutrients for your body, such as antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Some of the best fruits to eat:
Watermelons, in particular, are full of juice so it will satisfy your thirst and sweet tooth at the same time! Another great offering usually found at most summer gatherings that won’t hurt your weight loss efforts.
Fruits of all types can be made into chilled drinks and desserts, which can add a nice ending to your summer events. Instead of overly sugary, highly processed soft drinks make some awesome fruit iced drinks.
Salads are refreshing, nutritious and very versatile! There are so many different ways to create a salad that you’ll never run out of options. Fruits, nuts, and cooked meats can be added; it’s not advised to add cheese though if you’re trying to lose weight.
Grilled vegetables are really great for barbecues, perfect straight from the grill. You can grill practically any vegetables and they’ll taste just fantastic! From peppers, onions, carrots, garlic, zucchini, and even lettuce. The best oils to grill them with are either extra-virgin olive oil or coconut oil.
Soups can also be great summer foods simply because there are also plenty of variations for this as well. But this type of summertime soup is not one that you’d find on your grocery store shelf. Summertime soups are based on broths, like beef, chicken and vegetable for starters. Other types of summertime soups are the quite popular dessert soups made of refreshing fruits and vegetables.
There you have it! Use summer’s wonderful fresh fruit and vegetable bounty in your weight loss program and you’ll be definitely on your way to fast and easy weight loss for the summer!

Swami Ramdev Ji and His Divya MedicinesIf anyone is wondering if such a person exists, “the virtuous golden wonder from India”, His godliness Swami Ramdev who has transformed India to wake up to a healthy tomorrow, is the answer! Swami Ramdev was initiated in the abstinent order on the banks of the sacred River Ganga. He conventional Divya Medicines for man kind and Eastablished Divya Yog Mandir Trust in 1995 with the help of Muktanand Maharaj and Acharya Balkrishen. His kindness, loving nature and dedication to serve humanity have won him an enormous following in India and all over the World, just within a short period! He is highly proficient in Ayurveda and Vedic philosophy, Sanskrit and yog practice. Yog is an ancient Indian art that has been in practice for over 5000 years. But it was Saint Patanjali who compiled it so that the common man could understand it and called it the Ashtanga yog, the eight yogic practices, that brings about the positive way of thinking. Swami Ramdev follows in the footsteps of Maharshi Patanjali and he brought it to the masses, in the form of simple Pranayam and Asanas. Though Pranayam was known to be an essential part of Yog practice, it was seldom given the pride of place it deserved. Swami Ramdev can exclusively take the credit for changing the image of yog & its practice.The benefits are continuous to those who complete these exercises. Manipulation of breathing pattern will improve transmission of impulses resulting in functional changes leading to increase in immunity and finally evolved state of endless bliss.

The unmistakable improvement in spinal ailments, paralysis and especially in Parkinsons was reassuring to many of the sufferers who attended the venue. Swami Ramdev, who brought Pranayam to the forefront, believes in Pranayam and asanas to remain healthy and get rid of diseases, quite different to the earlier concept of Asanas being the main component and thereby giving Pranayam a subsidiary role!The swami has encouraged individuals to live simple lives while eating purely simple vegetarian food.

A report of the effects of global warming on health published by WHO, has estimated around one million fifty thousand deaths every year due to global warming. Further it declared that each year five million people are suffering from health problems and diseases caused for this global warming. The rising concern over this matter has led many scientists and researchers to take a deeper look and prepare a plan to save human civilization from this onslaught.
Global warming has caused changes in temperature, ocean current flow, sea level, ecosystem, economy, agriculture, industry, settlements and related to all these – the health and living. Warmer world has created congenial atmosphere for the breeding and life expanse of various virus, bacteria and carriers of infectious diseases. Few evidences of global warming leaving negative effects on human health are -
- The vectors distribution of infectious diseases have been altered for global warming.
- Heat wave resulted for global warming are causing deaths.
- The seasonal distribution of few species of allergenic pollen have been altered for global warming.
- Various extreme conditions of global warming like droughts, heat and cold wave, storm, flood, fire will increase the death tolls as well as injuries and diseases.
- Malnutrition and disordered development of children are few long term results of global warming.
- Global warming will cause increase of malaria, diarrhea, cholera, dengue, encephalitis and other diseases.
- There will be constant rising rate of mortality due to ground level ozone related diseases as well as high cardio respiratory morbidity for global warming.
Thus global warming will affect human health in two major ways – with extreme weather condition and with rising infectious diseases. IPCC in a study of one of the most global warming affected area of Illionis, Chicago, has provided an apprehensive report that by 2020 extreme climate condition like heat wave will raise the climate average deaths to 400 and to 497 by 2050 from the present average of 191. European heat wave of 2003 is an example of its severity. Heat waves will even cause cardio respiratory complications resulting to high rate of deaths.
The results of ill health due to global warming and infectious diseases are already evident. Houston as well as many tropical countries are experiencing frequent outbreak of malaria, dengue and other encephalitis diseases. Even colder regions like Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Queens are severely suffering from malaria since 1990 as a result of global warming. McAllen of Texas also suffered a dengue epidemic in 1995. Florida, New Oreleans, Arizona, Mississippi, Texas, Colorado, and California – all are experiencing encephalitis epidemic for global warming since 1987. According to IPCC, 65% of world population will suffer from high risk of infectious diseases in near future. The risk itself will be increased by 20%, only as a result of global warming.
Facing such an impending calamity due to global warming, the requirement of proper planning and organized adaptation to new and changing condition has received a new dimension. Along with urgent and basic adaptation practices to fight the immediate effects, a longer planning and elaborate gradual methodology are also necessary to address the severity of future conditions resulted from global warming. A participatory approach to the holistic development of human health is expected to sober down the effects of global warming on health to some extent.

During the summer months many people decide to splurge on a variety of foods. Many of us have an increased amount of soda, chips, and candy. This is mostly due to the family/friend barbecues, beach parties, bonfires, and pool parties. Summertime is often key word for fun and many people tend to lose focus when it comes down to their diets. So what are some of the healthy foods that we can consume during these hot summer months?
The best way to maintain your diet this summer is to splurge on the fresh produce of the season. Consuming a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables is beneficial for your diet as it provides your body with plenty vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber. And best of all, you don’t have to worry about portion control as fruit and vegetables are very low in calories. One of the summertime favorites is watermelon. Watermelon is a great thirst quencher and sweet tooth fulfiller. And since watermelon is made up of mostly water, it will leave you feeling full for hours.
Another great summertime food is salad. Salads are great summertime foods because they are refreshing and fun. A cool and crisp salad is a summertime must have. You can also have fun creating different salads. You can add fruit, vegetables, nuts, low fat cheese, or whatever you wish. You can try different combinations and see what you like the best. Another great summertime food is soup. This does not mean sodium packed canned soup. This means low calorie, broth based soup that you make at home. You can make your soup thick with vegetables thereby making it more filling. You can also include a whole grain roll to accompany either the soup or the salad. These are just a few ideas toward a healthy diet this summer.
