Biking and health
One of our aims in cycling is having fit and slim physique. I have noticed though that 1/2 of the cyclists in our group have large belly. Large belly means there is fat in: lungs, heart and liver. And it does not help at all in physical fitness and health. These fats can lead to: heart disease, and fatty liver. We can have healthy looking bellies and even 6 pack abs by:
l. Planking exercises - you assume push up position for 16 counts say 6 reps. You try having that position with one arm. Then raise one leg (can you try both legs) Then raise one leg and diagonally the other arm. Alternately. Planking exercises
2. Ghrerlin leptin - You can control the leptin by: eating 3 hours before meal; limiting each meal to 500 calories (normal meal maybe l,000 to l,500 calories); graze dont feast. Eat more foods in natural form. Avoid diet rich in sugar and artificial sweeteners. Take leptin preparations Leptin and ghrelin role in weight loss
3. Use of metformin and corosolic acid (from banaba) for weight loss. Taking metformin or corosolic acid reduces insulin which causes ghrelin level to go up. Ghrelin we know cause fat metabolism and loss of appetite. Dr Mirkin on use of gluchophage for weight loss (and PCOS).
You do not have to buy expensive xenecal. Our family physician prescribed this to my overweight daughter; I even heard this from a CEO of a big hospital.
Why dont you try, reduce weight and be healthier
