Simple Diets Can Be Best


Our first study is from the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Fifteen obese adults participated in this 12-week study, that included individual dietary counseling sessions to attain a daily goal of higher fiber (35 grams per day) and lean protein (0.8 grams per kilogram of an individual’s ideal body weight per day). Ninety three percent of participants approved of the diet and 92% never felt Hungary during the 12-week study period.


Drinking Water Before Meals Works


In a WebMD post, we learn that consuming 16-ounces of water 30-minutes before meals can be a simple and effective way to loose weight. During the 12-week study, participants who drank about 16-ounces of water 30-minutes before each meal lost on average about 9.5 pounds.

In the third study from the Medical College of Georgia, we learn drinking baking soda could be an inexpensive, safe way to combat autoimmune disease. The organ that responses to consuming baking soda is the spleen, an important part of our immune system.


Drinking Baking Soda May Help Inflammation Conditions Such as Rheumatoid Arthritis


If we choose to drink 16-ounces of water before each meal to loose weight, adding baking soda to at least one of those glasses of water could be a powerful way to help reduce inflammation and enhance health.

Three studies cited in this episode of the "Weight for Wellness Show" podcast are linked below.
