Indeed, the use of essential oils for slimming is an effective and natural way to regain a slender, fit body. These oils are powerful plant concentrates, providing numerous health benefits.
Lemon essential oil, for example, is rich in antioxidants and vitamins C and B, which help boost metabolism and burn fat. It can be used in a variety of ways, such as in inhalation, massage or infusion.
Rosemary essential oil is also very useful for slimming, as it helps to reduce appetite and increase energy expenditure. What's more, it's rich in antioxidants and flavonoids, which protect the body against free radicals and damage caused by oxidative stress.
Ginger essential oil is another ideal oil for slimming, as it helps to regulate digestion and eliminate toxins. It is also an invaluable aid in the fight against water retention and cellulite.
Finally,Atlas cedar essential oil is a powerful anti-inflammatory and antiseptic, which can help reduce pain and bloating, while stimulating blood circulation.
Since 2001, France has had a national health program (PNNS), which is renewed and modified every four years.
In the PNNS 2016-2020, we still find nutritional prevention and the management of nutritional disorders, of whichobesity is a part, with notably a new food categorization (9 food groups including legumes, drinking water and fruit juices).
Prevention requires as a priority :
- Balancing your diet
- limiting consumption of fast sugars and saturated fats
- avoid snacking; limit yourself to 3 meals a day
- Increasingphysical activity
A few additional nutritional tips :
- Avoid industrial products with added sugars and fats
- Avoid complicated food combinations. Go for simplicity, i.e. 75-80% starch and 20-25% protein at one meal, and vice versa at the next (which is much easier to digest).
- Eat fruit outside mealtimes
- If possible, move dessert to the afternoon for a snack
- Honey is best taken on its own or in a warm drink.
- Nibbling weakens the stomach, leaving it empty and at rest.
- Cow's milk should be limited and, if possible, eliminated. Cow's milk is not adapted to the human organism; it is produced by the mother to make a baby calf grow 360 kg in 1 year. What's more, the processes used to ensure that cows produce milk all year round are potentially toxic, since they rely on the use of antibiotics and hormone treatments, among other things.
- Choose unrefined sugars and cereals, and eat them in small quantities: brown sugar, agave syrup, honey, whole-grain bread, brown rice, etc.
- Check the glycemic index (GI) of foods, especially for diabetics and overweight people. Here's a tip: agave syrup sweetens in the same way as honey, and if it's of good quality, its glycemic index is a little lower.
- Avoid foods with no real nutritional value, as they promote inflammation, acidify the body and lead to greater fat storage.
- If possible, limit gluten-containing foods
- Choose oils rich in mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega 3, 6 and 9), and make sure they are virgin and first cold-pressed. Examples include rapeseed, olive, walnut, hazelnut and wheat germ oils...
- Eat fatty fish: sardines, mackerel, red mullet, salmon or tuna, for example. Remember to check that they come from fair-trade fishing. Beware, fatty fish also contain the most heavy metals. Choose them small and don't consume them too often.
- Avoid: sunflower and soybean oil, fatty meats (difficult to digest), industrial dairy products and cheeses (prefer local producers), margarines, etc.
- Choose plant-based proteins, white meats and fish.
- To avoid the risk of deficiencies, it's best to combine cereals with legumes, e.g. rice and kidney beans, semolina and chickpeas.
- Don't hesitate to eat sprouted seeds.
Of course, these treatments are no substitute for a healthy, balanced diet and regular exercise.
Essential oils for slimming are a healthy, natural way to get your body back in shape and enjoy a host of health benefits. It's important to remember that essential oils should always be diluted before use, and it's advisable to consult a health professional before using them for the first time.
