Dietary Planning
Question: What are good, easy dietary plans for an 11 year old girl? She's not visibly overweight, she has a roll though, but you shouldn't picture her very chubby.
What can she do?
Daylight savings time is over, so she doesn't have much time after school to ride her bike. She'd rather do that than work on a treadmill or any exercise equiptment that is indoors.
Answer: Well, first off, junk the junk food, no pun intended.
If you are her guardian, try not to buy her junk food, and instead give her healthy food, such as carrots, as snacks.
Also, ban all sugary drinks, and instead, provide water.
A good exercise would be plain walking. Walking for 30 minutes everyday can burn 300 calorie daily. That can lead to up to 20 pounds of weight loss in a year.
Question: What is a good dietary plan for weightlifting? I am weightlifting and I am just wondering what is a good diet. I know eating healthy is almost 60% of what you want to look like.
Answer: High protein, healthy fats, fiberous carbs.
This is about all I eat. Make sure that every meal has 30-40 grams of protein in it, some healthy fats such as nuts, oil oil, or avocado, and some fiberous carbs such as broccoli, asparagus, or spinach.
Building muscle is about taking in more calories than you burn and losing bodyfat is about burning more calories than you take in.
Question: What is a good dietary plan for a female competitive figure skater? I'm making my way to the top of the figure skating world and I want to do everything possible to make my journey there go smoothly. What type of everyday diet should I have to ensure my body weight and type are right for my sport?
I'm 14 years old, 5 foot 1 and weigh 104, if that helps anything.
Thank you so much! Any serious answers are very much appreciated :)
Answer: You'll need carbs for energy, protein for rebuilding, and fat for producing hormones and keeping your hormones in balance.
The USDA food pyramid is based off industry special interests so for example since grains like corn and soybeans are really big in the U.S. they get the biggest serving spot and stuff. It's completely a political thing not a nutritional thing so don't listen so much to that.
I recommend that you eat three meals a day consisting of carbs, protein, and fat. Don't eat fake "diet" foods like low fat crap because usually they replace the fat with sugar which is much worse. Watch out for refined sugar, High-fructose corn syrup, and vegetable oil and you'll be doing well.
Question: What dietary restrictions/additions are the most beneficial? Whether religious, Atkins, New Age, or vegetarian, what do you recommend and why? I am structuring a dietary plan for myself.
Answer: Eat only when you're truly hungry, several times a day (think more like five or six).
Eat meals about the size of a loosely closed fist which is the natural and unstretched size of a stomach.
Drink a glass of water a few minutes before eating, because a lot of hunger pangs are actually your body asking for water. Drink TONS of water, at least a half gallon a day.
Eat natural, whole foods.
Stay away from processed, prepackaged stuff.
I haven't read it, but You On A Diet by Dr. Oz (and someone else) is supposedly a good book. It teaches healthy eating.
Question: How do you loose 2 pounds per week? What exercise routines work well with a good dietary plan?
Answer: Walking is the best and easiest of exercises. I don't mean going for a stroll. Try for an hour a day at a quick pace, get your heart pumping, and take hills to build your muscles.
As for a diet - I would focus on foods that have protein and fiber and other good stuff but no more than 8 grams of sugar/serving. Also try not to eat 3 hours before bed time.
Question: What do I need to know when doing a science project about dietary plans? Any words or phrases i should know about to help me write a final paper on it.
ex: metabolism.....
Answer: Know the new food pyramid.
Make up one for each type of diet.
How does a Carnivore on an Atkins diet, an Omnivore eating fast food, a Vegetarian eating fruits and a Vegan eating no animals each get the nutrients they need? What is the benefits and difficulties of each?
Super sugars: for our bodies to function properly, we need proper amounts of eight necessary sugars, only two of which – glucose and galactose – are commonly found in our limited, over-processed diets.

Best of luck
Question: Please suggest me dietary plan for renal caliculus patient? Mostly vegetarian diet available in India or in Australia please .I want to get advised by anybody -experts or by your own experience.
pl suggest vegitarian diet for pt of kidney stones.
Answer: Most of the renal stones are calcium oxalate crystals
Calcium is rich in milk, milk products,green leafy vegetables, many cereals like millet, ragy (except rice).
Oxalte is available in tea, cabbage, green leafy vegetables, etc..
Prevention
In many cases, you can prevent kidney stones by making a few lifestyle changes. If these measures aren't effective and blood and urine tests reveal a correctable chemical imbalance or that the stones you have are getting bigger, your doctor may prescribe certain medications.
Lifestyle changes
For people with a history of kidney stones, doctors usually recommend passing at least 2.5 quarts (2.3 liters) of urine a day. To do this, you'll need to drink about 14 cups (3.3 liters) of fluids every day — and even more if you live in a hot, dry climate.
What should you drink? Water is best. Include a glass of lemonade every day, too. Make your own with real lemons, or use a liquid or frozen concentrate, but avoid powdered lemonade mixes. Lemonade increases the levels of citrate in your urine, and citrate helps prevent stone formation.
In addition, if you tend to form calcium oxalate stones, your doctor may recommend restricting foods rich in oxalates. These include rhubarb, star fruit, beets, beet greens, collards, okra, refried beans, spinach, Swiss chard, sweet potatoes, sesame seeds, almonds and soy products. What's more, studies show that an overall diet low in salt and very low in animal protein can greatly reduce your chance of developing kidney stones.
As a general rule, restricting your intake of calcium doesn't seem to lower your risk. In fact, researchers have found that women with a high calcium intake are less likely to develop kidney stones than are women who consume less calcium. Why? Dietary calcium binds with oxalates in the gastrointestinal tract so that oxalates can't be absorbed from the intestine and excreted by the kidney to form stones.
An exception to this rule occurs when an individual absorbs too much dietary calcium from the intestine. In such a circumstance, restricting calcium intake is useful.
Calcium supplements seem to have the same protective effect as dietary calcium, but only if they're taken with meals.
Medications
Medications can control the level of acidity or alkalinity in your urine and may be helpful in people who form certain kinds of stones. The type of medication your doctor prescribes will depend on the kind of kidney stones you have:
* Calcium stones. To help prevent calcium stones from forming, your doctor may prescribe a thiazide diuretic or a phosphate-containing preparation. If you have calcium stones because of a condition known as renal tubular acidosis, your doctor may suggest taking sodium bicarbonate or potassium bicarbonate.
* Uric acid stones. Your doctor may prescribe allopurinol (Zyloprim, Aloprim) to reduce uric acid levels in your blood and urine and a medicine to keep your urine alkaline. In some cases, allopurinol and an alkalinizing agent may dissolve the uric acid stones.
* Struvite stones. To prevent struvite stones, the first goal is to keep urine free of bacteria that cause infection. Long-term use of antibiotics in small doses may be useful to achieve this goal.
* Cystine stones. Cystine stones are the hardest stones and the most difficult to treat. Your doctor may prescribe certain medications to alkalinize the urine or to bind the cystine in the urine in addition to recommending an extremely high urine output.
Question: Dietary plan for a lactose-intolerant vegetarian? I do not eat anything that had a face, moved independently, or had thoughts or instincts. I am also lactose-intolerant, so my dietary choices are very limited. I would like to lose weight and be more healthy, however, but I don't know how. Can someone please help me?
~~Nao
Answer: Since you're vegetarian, not vegan, you can probably eat soy cheese, even if it has casein (as casein does not have lactose). There are numerous types of soy ice creams. There's also a company called Tofutti that is geared toward the lactose intolerant. Many of their items are vegan by chance.
Your dietary choices are not limited!
Question: Would taking the pill and a dietary supplement affect the pill? I'm currently on the pill, and I was planning on taking a dietary supplement to clean toxins out of my body. The supplement basically flushes my system and makes me pee and poo a lot.
Would that affect my pill, though, since i'm flushing toxins out of my body?
Answer: Anything that increases intestinal motility (i.e., flushes out your system) can decrease your body's absorption of birth control pills.
If you still want to cleanse yourself via this method, keep taking your birth control pills but use another method of contraception until you're through cleansing and you've had a menstrual period.

Question: Whats the best dietary plan for me? Im 17 im about 6'3 and i weigh about 215.
i jus wanna get down to about 200...jus a flat stomach basically.
I get the munchys a lot too and jus pig out.so are their any healthy alternatives that taste good?
Answer: The easiest way to lose weight is through the principles of balance and moderation.
Shoot to lose 1-3 pounds per week. No more. Don't go hungry, just keep yourself filled with good, natural foods.
Don't worry about calories. Caloric science is flawed for several reasons. 1) it assumes 100% absorption, but we all absorb and excrete different amounts; 2) It assumes all calories are processed the same, but calories from natural sources are burned more slowly and evenly than from refined sources; 3) It assumes that the amount of energy released by combustion (burning) in a lab is the same amount of energy released when the food is broken down enzymatically in the gut; 4) It assumes that the same exercise done by different people will burn the same amount of exercise, but different exercises will be harder or easier for different people; 5) Correlation does not prove causation. People who are heavier eat more calories: did the calories make them heavy, or did being heavy make them need more calories? Maybe they are both symptoms of a deeper problem. 6) people in China consume 25-40% more calories; even the sedentary office workers have more calories and less obesity than we.
Asian cultures have long ago figured out how we should be eating, Ever since we have looked to science to tell us how to eat we have seen more obesity and diet-related disease. If we eat like the Asians, we will look like the Asians. This doesn't mean you have to eat Asian food, just adhere to the principles that are common to the different cultures and cuisines.
You should eat mostly vegetables, mostly cooked (cold and raw foods slow your metabolism because they need to be cooked in your stomach) and a wide variety, mostly fresh and in-season and local, simple grains (more rice, less bread), some fruit, a little meat, no dairy (it's for infants and grows tissue), and no artificial foods.
Avoid artificial foods, including sugar substitutes. Don't worry about calories, fat, protein, carbs, nor any one component of food.
There are several books that explain this strategy of eating. "The Asian Diet: simple secrets for eating right, losing weight, and being well" by Bussell explains the diet and its rationale. "The Asian Diet: get slim and stay slim the Asian way" by Tran has recipes that adhere to the principles. "The China Study" by Campbell has the science behind the recommendation.
Get some exercise every day, but not too much and not always the same exercise. Start slow and work your way up
Follow the principles of balance and moderation and you'll be fine. Most diets in America are not balanced nor moderate.

Weight Watchers is great because it is so felxible, the weekly meeting really help with support and education about nutrition and excercise topics. Go to Weightwatchers.com and check it out!
Question: Fitness routine/dietary plan for marathon training? My husband and I decided we want to train for our first mini marathon (seeing how that goes, we'll go for the full 26 miles!!) I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how we go about this? He is in the military and can probably do it without training, but while I am healthy and active, I've never been much of a long distance runner. Any tips would be great.....
Thanks!
Answer: Not to discourage the previous posters here, but it sounds like they're both well-seasoned in track rather than endurance running.
Trust me. There's a huge difference (and a bit of a disconnect, too).
First and foremost, congratulations on making the decision to participate in something that will undoubtedly change your life in some way, shape or form. Marathon and half marathon running is an amazing challenge and you'll learn lots about yourself in the miles you put in during training.
First things first...you need to make sure you've got the right shoes. Get fitted at a local running store (that specializes in running, not at a Dick's Sporting Goods or Foot Locker) like Fleet Feet or your local mom & pop running shop. Once you've got the right shoes...start looking around for a plan that will fit your lifestyle and capabilities. If you're a super busy person, you probably don't want a training schedule that has you running every day with upwards of 45 miles per week. And if you're not a novice runner, you probably don't want a schedule that only has you running 2-3 times a week. It's all about finding the right balance.
May I suggest picking up the book "Marathoning for Mortals" by John Bingham. It's a very easy and fun read, and you'll learn a lot about the training process in the process. John also provides you with a series of training plans as well for the marathon and half marathon distances.
You may also want to explore to see if there are any running clubs in your area that you could join for the weekend "long run" during training. They'll provide you with resources while you're out there, along with companionship.
Once you've got the plan in place, just follow it. If you miss a day here and there...it's okay. Just pick up where you left off and keep on running.
You'll find that for a half marathon, your longest distance will be in the 10-12 mile range with the longest run coming about 2-3 weeks before your race. When you bump up to the full 26.2 mile race, you'll find your longest run will be in the 20-22 mile range 3-4 weeks before the race. The period after your longest run is called "tapering"...everything cuts back in regards to mileage so your body can recover and prepare for the big event.
As far as dietary plan goes, you'll want to make sure you're consuming enough whole grain/carbs/protiens during your training. Everything you put into your mouth will fuel you on your runs...and you'll often find that when you eat crap, your longer runs can turn to crap. Just be smart and stay hydrated and you'll be golden.
Good luck!
