Losing Weight With Fat and Protein Alternatives

Consuming too much meat is a direct cause of being overweight. Many people who're interested in natural weight loss begin by cutting back on their meat intake. (Please note that Fat Loss 4 Idiots also has a vegetarian diet menu that is included with their plan) Meat contains unhealthy fat, cholesterol, adrenaline, and uric acid, all of which are harmful to the body. Yet the human body does need fats and protein in order to be healthy. This article will explore how you can cut back on your meat supply, without being fat or protein deficient.

In order to run smoothly, the human body needs fat. Fats have been demonized by the media, but the reality is that healthy fats are essential to a healthy functioning body. In fact, healthy fats, such as olive oil, avocados, and raw nuts will actually help you lose fat.

Healthy, uncooked plant fats contain enzymes that help the breakdown and digestion of the fats. They're in a sense "pre-digested," and even help in the extraction of unhealthy fat from the body. Instead of taking in fats that are high in toxins from meat, try getting your fats from a healthy plant source.

You can also get much of your protein from plant sources. Most dark, leafy vegetables are very high in protein - Broccoli and Spinach are both about 20% protein. The public's perception of protein is also highly skewed - You don't need nearly as much protein as you'd think.

The goal of this article isn't to turn you into a vegetarian. Certain vitamins, like vitamin B12, can’t be found anywhere except meat and dairy products. The goal is not to cut meat out of your diet; but instead to cut down your intake of meat to increase your health and naturally reduce your weight. By replacing a large part of your diet with healthier plant sources of nutrition, you get better nutrition without the toxins that are found in animal meats.
