6 Effective Ways to Get Rid of a Double Chin

Weight No Comments »

A beautifully slim neck is one of those body goals many of us long for but can’t seem to achieve. The neck is a tricky area since the skin there is thinner than elsewhere on your body, so it requires a lot of care to maintain its elasticity. So what exactly can you do to not only get rid of that stubborn double chin but also keep your neck taut and “in shape”? Watch this video till the end to get some simple yet essential tips on how to keep your face and neck in the best possible shape.

#6. Do facial exercises 0:52
#5. Don’t overuse perfume 6:52

#3. Watch your posture 8:31
#2. Keep your skin moisturized 9:33

SUMMARY
-Facial exercises are the most effective thing you can do to slim down your neck. They give the muscles in your face and neck a good workout, so you can finally kiss that double chin goodbye!
-Perfumes contain alcohol and different chemicals that dry out your skin and make it less elastic. And by now you probably know that less elasticity means more sagging and wrinkling.
-Heavy necklaces and pendants have, on average, a 20% chance of causing unpleasant neck problems. So be careful with this type of jewelry and try to save it only for special occasions.
-Bad posture and increased neck tension can easily lead to “knots” developing in the muscles.
-Your regular face cream will be just fine for your neck. The only trick is to pay attention to how you apply it to your neck because it’s important to go in upward strokes.
-Vitamin C since it boosts collagen production, making the skin plumper and way more elastic. This is why it’s better to include more citrus fruits, tomatoes, and berries in your diet.

Hate Double Chin? SEE THIS VIDEO and learn about the Jawline exercises that help you GET RID OF DOUBLE CHIN.
How many of us would love to have a chiseled face without any double chin? Well, I’m sure all of us would! A double chin can change the entire look of your face making you look older and unhealthy. Not very many of us know that there are exercises that can help us lose that ugly double chin. How to do away with flab under your chin is a great concern for many of us.

Given below are some simple steps that will help you all to get rid of a double chin and in the bargain get back a few years onto your face.

# Follow the step wise procedure listed below:

Step 1: Start the double chin exercise by warm ups. Turn your neck to your right and then back to the center.

Step 2: Then turn your neck to the left and back to the center. Repeat this about 2-3 times.

Step 3: Now gently tuck your chin and move it to the right. Similarly tuck your chin and then move it to the left side making a semi-circle. Do this for 2-3 times.

Step 4: Now lift your chin slowly towards the ceiling. Start moving your lower jaw up and down for a few seconds. By doing this, you will be able to feel the contractions of your vocal muscles.

Step 5: Then keeping your chin in a raised position itself, slowly open your mouth and close it. Do 10 reps of this double chin exercise and then relax.

Step 6: The next exercise would be to raise your chin upwards to the right side and start jutting the chin for a few seconds.

Step 7: Hold the position there and begin to open and close your mouth. Do this for 10 repetitions and come back to the center and relax.

Step 8: Similarly turn your chin upwards to left side. Jut your chin for a few seconds and hold the position. Start opening and closing your mouth for about 10 repetitions and then come to the center and relax. With this we come to the end of the double chin exercises.

In a response to a TV episode on the show Royal Pains, I analyze the claims that a high fat diet will necessarily lead to the pain associated with gout and gout attacks. The conventional wisdom seems often analogous to popular, but wrong cholesterol theorem that dietary cholesterol leads to increased cholesterol in the blood. Is the popular theory right?

What is Gout?
Gout is a form of arthritis that occurs when abnormally high levels of uric acid build up in the body, causing crystals to form in joints. The crystals cause sudden, severe attacks of joint pain and swelling. Uric acid is a substance that is normally released by the kidneys when the body breaks down waste products called purines. When the kidneys are no longer able to flush uric acid out of the body properly, it crystallizes and accumulates around the joints.

Misconception that Atkins is only acidic foods:
Alkaline Foods
Extremely Alkaline Forming Foods – pH 8.5 to 9.0:
Cantaloupe, Cayenne (Capsicum), Kelp, Melons, Watercress, Seaweed
Moderate Alkaline Forming Foods – pH 7.5 to 8.0
Alfalfa sprouts, Avocados, Berries, Carrots, Celery, Lettuce (leafy green), Peas (fresh sweet), Pumpkin (sweet), Spinach, Bell Pepper, Broccoli, Cabbage, Kale, Kohlrabi, Lettuce (pale green), Strawberry, Squash , Sweet corn (fresh), Sour Dairy
Slightly Alkaline to Neutral Forming Foods – pH 7.0
Almonds , Artichokes (Jerusalem), Brussel Sprouts, Coconut (fresh), Cucumbers, Egg plant, Onions, Tomatoes (sweet), Mayonnaise (home made), Millet, Olive oil,
“Red” meat and seafood on the Atkins diet
If you look at this table of high purine foods , you’ll see that beef, lamb, pork, plus “white” meat chicken and turkey – all allowable on the Atkins diet – are not high purine foods, they are medium purine. And that fruits and vegetables, many of which are allowable, on the Ongoing Weight Loss phase of the Atkins diet, are usually medium or low purine. Moreover, a large study found that purines-wealthy vegetables do not increase the risk of getting gout (7).

Gout the missing chapter from Good Calories, Bad Calories Gary Taubes
http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/2009/10/05/gout/
“The actual evidence, however, has always been less-than-compelling: Just as low cholesterol diets have only a trivial effect on serum cholesterol levels, for instance, and low-salt diets have a clinically insignificant effect on blood pressure, low-purine diets have a negligible effect on uric acid levels. A nearly vegetarian diet, for instance, is likely to drop serum uric acid levels by 10 to 15% percent compared to a typical American diet, but that’s rarely sufficient to return high uric acid levels to normality, and there is little evidence that such diets reliably reduce the incidence of gouty attacks in those afflicted.(4) Thus, purine-free diets are no longer prescribed for the treatment of gout, as the gout specialist Irving Fox noted in 1984, “because of their ineffectiveness” and their “minor influence” on uric acid levels.(5) ”

Soft drinks, fructose consumption, and the risk of gout in men: prospective cohort study
Hyon K Choi
BMJ 2008; 336
In a huge study of 46,393 male health professionals in Canada, a survey was carried out and then they were followed every four years for 12 years. 2 cans a day consumption of HFCS-soda led to 85% greater risk to suffer gout.

Asymptotic Bounding 101: Big O, Big Omega, & Theta (Deeply Understanding Asymptotic Analysis)

Big O Cheat Sheet: http://bigocheatsheet.com

Today we will initiate a discussion on something that I have lied to you about for a very long time. This will be as simple as possible.

We will not only consider the informal definition but rather also look at the mathematical understandings behind why we call these asymptotic “bounds”.

Again, we care about this because the true colors of an algorithm can only be seen in the asymptotic nature of runtime and space.

So imagine this, we have these components:

A function T(n) which is the actual number of comparisons, swaps…just…resources an algorithm needs in terms of time or space. It is a function of n. When n changes, T(n) changes.

Our job is to classify behaviour.

A bound O( f(n) ) is the function that we choose to apply for the specific bounding.

The definitions, an example:
“T(n) is O(f(n))” iff for some constants c and n0, T(n) less than or equal to c * f(n) for all n greater than or equal to n0

In English…this means…we can say that f(n) is a fundamental function that can upper bound T(n)’s value for all n going on forever.

We have an infinite choice for what c is.

Our constant does not change behavior, it changes “steepness” of the graph.

We are saying that…if I declare f(n) as an upper bound, then I can find a constant c to multiply against f(n) to ALWAYS always always keep T(n) beneath my c * f(n)…T(n) will never beat c * f(n) for infinite n values…hence asymptotic bounding.

If we can’t find this c then f(n) fails as an upper bound because it does not satisfy the asymptotic requirement.

So why are constants dropped?

Well…think about what we just did. The injection of the arbitrary c as a multiple onto a base function removes the need for a constant. It adds no meaning to a bound because it is conceptually already a part of the definition of what a bound is.

Big Bounds

Big O: Upper bound on an algorithm’s runtime

Theta (Θ): This is a “tight” or “exact” bound. It is a combination of Big

For example:
An algorithm taking Ω(n log n) takes at least n log n time, but has no upper limit.

An algorithm taking Θ(n log n) is far preferential since it takes at least n log n (Ω(n log n)) and no more than n log n (O(n log n)).

Big Omega (Ω): Lower bound on an algorithm’s runtime.

Little Bounds

Little o: Upper bound on an algorithm’s runtime but the asymptotic runtime cannot equal the upper bound.

There is no little theta (θ).

Little Omega (ω): Lower bound on an algorithm’s runtime but the asymptotic runtime cannot equal the lower bound.

If you can’t get an exact upper bound, try lower bounding (although it is less useful to be honest).

The Best Science-Based Diet for Fat Loss (ALL MEALS SHOWN!)

Weight No Comments »

When it comes to “the best diet to lose weight” (also known as a “cutting diet”), you’ll get A LOT of suggestions as to which diet to lose weight fast you should follow. However, the truth is that whether it’s keto, intermittent fasting, paleo, and so on, all of these diets work by making it easier for you to eat at a calorie deficit. These diets don’t have a “secret” fat loss effect which has been proven time and time again in the literature. Simply meaning that the best weight loss diet or the best diet for abs for example is the one that you can adhere to the best. However, weight loss is one thing and fat loss is a whole other variable which is MUCH more important when it comes to improving your physique. When it comes to optimizing the best fat loss diet, you need to pay attention to how much protein,fats, and carbs you’re ingesting on a daily basis. I go through how to optimize each of these factors to create the best fat burning diet in my video. I also show a daily nutrition/meal plan (full day of eating) for fat loss with various examples/macros of what I personally eat on a daily basis.

How to lose belly fat? How to lose weight fast without exercises? Doctors say that this diet is the most effective way to improve your overall condition.
According to the National Institute of Health, it scored a 3.3 out of 5 in the “Weight Loss Effectiveness” category and 4.5 out of 5 in “Health Usefulness”. Out of 40 diets evaluated, it was chosen number one! So who is this all-star? It’s something called the DASH diet.

The DASH diet is an easy, safe, and useful plan that can help you feel better and get rid of excess weight. You can lose weight gradually, no starving or yo-yo dieting. It won’t shock or stress your body out.

DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. It’s a diet developed specifically to reduce blood pressure in those with hypertension. But scientists understood later on that this diet resolves tons of other health issues. It reduces cholesterol, prevents stroke and heart failure, and brings the weight down to a healthy level, even for those with obesity. Plus, it’s considered the best diet to prevent diabetes. Besides controlling blood pressure, people following it managed to improve insulin resistance.

SUMMARY
The DASH diet wasn’t originally designed for weight loss, but there have been some studies proving that this eating plan can help people get rid of unwanted pounds.

The DASH diet balances all the necessary nutrients and minerals, like calcium, potassium, protein, and fiber, that are responsible for brain and overall organ function. It improves the condition of your hair and skin as well.

What’s convenient about this diet is that you don’t have to calculate and monitor each nutrient: you just need to reduce your salt intake and eat certain recommended foods, for instance, fruits, vegetables, grains, protein-rich foods, and dairy products.
Compared to trendy crash diets, DASH is different. This is a complete lifestyle change. It’s for people who need to take care of their eating habits throughout their lives. There’s no cutting out or starving involved. You can have all sorts of tasty dishes.

Have you ever tried the DASH diet? If so, how did you like it? Tell us in the comments below.
