HEALTH TIPS

General Principle of Weight Control
From The Whole Kernel, Book 1, pp. 97-100, by Dr. Ede Koenig, Ph.D.

  1. Begin each week with a 24 - 40 hour fast.

  2. Hunger can be made to be experienced on schedule. Be regular. "Correct" sleep (asleep by midnight) gives one more willpower.

  3. Get a good breakfast. Sample: 1/2 cup of cooked cereal, 2 servings of fruit, 1 slice of whole grain bread, 1/2 tablespoon of almond butter. Use no empty calories.

  4. Not a morsel between meals. "Snack foods are generally very high in refined fat, refined sugars, and refined flours. These are disastrous for weight control. They are just about all calories with few nutrients. That is why they are called "Empty calorie foods". Eating between meals keeps adding more and more calories to the total daily intake and this lessens desire for good satisfying food at mealtimes. Between meal snacks also upset the digestive processes, causing the food to remain up to 15 hours longer than it should in the stomach.

  5. Eat a good lunch. Sample: About 150 calories of a main dish, 100 calories of a cooked vegetable, a raw vegetable, less than 100 calories of a whole grain bread, 1/2 tablespoon of almond butter or substitute 1 ounce nuts if desired.

  6. Light exercise after meals to promote digestion. Never lie down after meals. Exercise burns off calories, it counteracts stress which is a strong influence towards overeating. The refreshing supply of oxygen increases the strength of your will. Exercise increases your basal metabolic rate. This means you will burn more calories after exercise, just sitting still, than you would have without exercise.

  7. Daily light to moderate exercise in the amount of one to five hours; moderate to heavy exercise suppresses the appetite.

  8. Avoid irritants. Anything that irritates the stomach or the nervous system acts as a stimulant to the appetite -- vinegar, mayonnaise, mustard, caffeine, alcohol, baking soda, baking powder, spices (black pepper, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger).

  9. Avoid crashes, fads. Retrain yourself now in a new lifestyle which you expect to maintain forever with only minor variation.

  10. Drink plenty of water between meals. Drinking with meals dilutes the digestive juices, resulting in poor digestion.
