The Acai Berry Diet and Colon Cleanse; The Facts About this Weight Loss Secret

There can be other factors to weight loss besides just going on a diet and reducing the amount of food you eat.

What are these other factors? Basically that certain foods and certain combinations of food groups can significantly slow down your digestion, causing things to backup. This condition not only contributes to stubborn weight gain but is potentially a serious threat to good health.

Basically, your digestion can only handle one concentrated food at a time. A concentrated food is anything that is not a fruit or a vegetable. Fruits and vegetables contain water in higher levels and this makes them easier to digest.

Certain food group combinations slow down the digestion, such as meat and starch. Meat needs an acid to digest it and starch needs an alkaline so the two cancel each other out and the food just sits in your stomach longer, rotting and turning to toxins. This is why it’s better to eat the meat without the bun or visa versa.

Some meat can also take up to eight hours to be moved into the small intestines as the proteins must be separated and broken down individually.

If you can keep in mind, and live by, the rule that only one concentrated food can be digested at a time, this will help a lot, not only in weight loss but also in your health in general.

Drinking lots of water will also help and so will eating foods high in fiber such as bran.

The Acai Berry can help significantly since it is extremely high in fiber and is also a natural antioxidant. People find that consuming the Acai Berry as a juice is very convenient as they can easily and quickly get the same amount of fiber and antioxidants that they would get in several servings of vegetables.

The high fiber content in the Acai Berry will help to cleanse the colon and the fiber will help alleviate the blockage of undigested food so that the digestion can return to normal and weight loss will be possible.
