Important Vitamins For Weight Loss Diets
Weight loss diets normally do not make any recommendations for vitamins. It is not, traditionally, in their scope. However, there are 3 vitamins which are too important to weight-watchers to be disregarded. These are Vitamin B, Vitamin C and Vitamin A.
In terms of losing weight , Vitamin B or B Complex is the most important. Practically speaking, B Complex helps to increase your metabolism. It helps to improve your digestion and helps to burn fat . You feel more energetic. Two natural sources of B Complex are liver and yeast. For those of you who do not like the taste of liver, a B Complex supplement makes a suitable replacement.
Besides the direct effects, B Complex also has indirect effects which are useful for people trying to lose weight . It helps to improve and stabilize your moods, and also helps to soothe your nerves. Given that many moody people and nervous people tend to turn to food to feel better, this secondary effect of B Complex is clearly important.
The next important vitamin for dieters is Vitamin C. While it has no obvious effect on weight loss, it is important for general health and a strong immune system. Studies have shown that people suffering from Vitamin C deficiency tend to catch colds more easily. If you already take Vitamin C supplements, or eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables, you should be fine. However, dieters on high-protein diets often do not eat enough fruits and vegetables. So you need to take suitable precautions if you are in this category. Similar to B Complex, people suffering from Vitamin C deficiency also suffer from irritability.
The final member of this important troika is Vitamin A. Unlike B Complex and Vitamin C, Vitamin A is an oil-soluble vitamin, so excess Vitamin A tends to remain in your body. This can be a good thing, since many people tend not to consume enough Vitamin A. An indication of Vitamin A deficiency is poor night vision and skin problems. Unfortunately for weight-watchers, the natural sources for Vitamin A are milk, butter and cream - the main sources of fat. In addition to this, salads for dieters usually use mineral oil for dressings, which interfere in the absorption of the beta carotene. Beta carotene is a common building block of Vitamin A, and is richly present in carrots and other fruits and vegetables reddish-orange in color. Despite the problems in getting enough Vitamin A in your diet, be careful of blanket recommendations to take Vitamin A supplements. Certain forms of Vitamin A are known to be toxic in very high concentrations. If you suspect that you suffer from a deficiency, you should consult your doctor before you take Vitamin A supplements.
So, now you know the 3 important vitamins to supplement your weight loss diets. B Complex and Vitamin C are both water soluble. Any excess is removed in your urine, so it is safe to take extra supplements. On the other hand, before you take Vitamin A supplements, you should check with your doctor.

How To Lose 30 pounds and Up
What is the key to a healthy and natural weight loss ?
My answer is: Eat Right and Move your body.
Maybe this sounds easy to follow, but still many continue to struggle against their overweight.
This is also why people are finding ways to get help with their overweight and obesity with different weight loss and diet programs today.
And there are many diet and weight loss programs that will help you lose weight . But at the same time you should be aware of, and also avoid so called fad or “starvation” diets.
Fad or Starvation diets usually tells you to skip meals or starve yourself in order to lose weight.
But this is not a good choice.
Skipping meals is not a healthy habit, and it can even cause some serious complications or problems for you.
When you skip meals you will also cause a hypoglycemia, or when your blood sugar gets really low, and will usually just results in making you eat twice as much at the next meal. It also gets harder for you to control your eating habits and weight.
This is also why you should avoid so called “starvation” and “fad” diets.
Instead you should focus on finding diets or weight loss programs that provides you with a healthy eating plan, preferable 4 meals per day or more, and some healthy fruit or veggie snacks between the meals if you would get hungry.
This way you will help your body boost it’s fat burning metabolism, which has been proven to be the best way to lose weight . It is also the best way to keep your goal weight in the long run.
Another good thing with losing weight is that it’s never too late to lose some extra pounds.
Though it is a whole lot easier to prevent putting on pounds than to try losing them later on, there are always ways to help you lose your extra pounds.
A recommendation is to change your eating habits and lifestyle. This way you will see results in your weight loss as well.
What can I eat?
A reasonable approach for losing weight is to stick to a diet that is high in complex carbohydrates, high in fiber, moderate in protein, and low in fat.
For example complex carbohydrates can be found in potatoes and baked potatoes, proteins can be found in lean cuts of meat and fiber can be found in vegetables.
This also makes a great and healthy weight loss meal.
This is also why you can eat perfectly ordinary and healthy food while losing weight, as long as you don’t overeat it or add to many fats to it.
For example avoid the cream in the baked potato, the fat gravy to the meat and the oil you are frying the food in. These are the ingredients that can make you fat.
So continue to eat healthy and ordinary food while losing weight, preferable 4 smaller meals or more per day to speed up your bodys fat burning metabolism, and stop starving yourself!
This way you will see the best results in your weight loss!
