???? الخميس فبراير 10, 2011 7:32 pmMen are more stress prone compared to women due to changing lifestyles, financial woes and expectations, constant stress of providing for family and children etc. Hence, it is necessary that they have a healthy diet to deal with their hard life! Just like how women have to protect themselves against osteoporosis, men need to protect themselves against prostate cancer. Men have different (and higher) nutritional needs compared to women. For this very purpose, there are different types of foods that men require to maintain the well-being of their body and mind. Men who want to lose weight and stay fit permanently need to have a balanced and low calorie diet along with some peace of mind! Eat less, exercise more is the motto. But, what needs to be eaten? If you are reading this then obviously you would want this question answered. And it shall be answered in the next section, so don’t wait – read on!
Diet Tips For Men
Oatmeal
Full of fibre, vitamin B and zinc, oats are a reservoir of nutrition. Vitamins are primarily taken during stress and zinc for the prostate. To make oatmeal, stir a handful in hot milk and eat! If you don’t enjoy plain oatmeal, eat them in the form of muffins.
Eat Only When Hungry
Physical signs of hunger are the only time you should eat. A famous doctor says that - Hunger is your body's way of telling you that you need fuel, so when a craving doesn't come from hunger, eating will never satisfy it. Also, eating the correct proportions is important. Feeling tired or bloated must never be experienced.
Low Carbohydrate Meals
Low carbs are the best diet plans for men because studies claim that 70% of men do better when they use this eating plan compared to any other. Low carbohydrate diets include South Beach Diet and Atkins Diet. These diets are such that men’s nutrition needs are optimally fulfilled and they rarely feel hungry. But, be sure not to consume any fat during this diet.
Greens
Kids or adults, men or women – all hate greens! But you’ve got to eat, what you’ve got to eat. Dark and leafy vegetables are a storehouse of nutrition and contain beta carotene, vitamin E, vitamin C and minerals such as calcium, magnesium and potassium. It would be a good start to throw in a little green with each meal.
Avoid Nighttime Snacks
Most often, if you concentrate on what you eat and are occupied with work, you eat limited meals. But, during the night when you sit down and relax, mindless eating urges occur. Eating chips, cookies or candy in front of the television after dinner should be avoided under all circumstances. It is done more out of habit than actual hunger. What you could do to begin with is eat low calorie snacks such as popcorn, nuts, low fat yoghurt, herbal tea etc.
Water, Water All The Time!
Stats show that almost 3 out of 4 Americans are dehydrated! Water is not a nutrient but does wonders for digestion and detoxification of the body. Drinking water helps you in eating less and also washes out unnecessary chemicals/toxins from your body. And there are probably no known side effects of consuming water! It cools the body and helps in bodily functions too so that food does not get stagnated and the fats get washed away.
These diet plans and tips for men are a sure way to keep them healthy and happy for a long time!
