Can you eat baby food for a source of protein, to lose fat and as a heathly diet!


Question: lol dont know how you came across this idea but i must say its the first time i've heard of it and im a trainer so i have heard of a lot of things when it comes to alternate diets.
Thing to consider is that it is made for babies..not adults.. so the nutitional value is generated to assist babies but not adults otherwise the genius marketers would just relabel it and call it "adult food" so yeh.

If your looking at good source of protin and are willinf to fork out for cans of baby food then you should definately ook at isolate whey proteing shakes such as ASN's shake which has 30grms per serve. i take this 3times a day which give sme 90grms per day + what i get form the meats i eat so i cant imagine that coming from any type of baby food.

Feel free to check the review i did on the whey protein http://myfitmate.com.au/content_pages/ar...
there ar eplenty of other options so have a look around.

also plenty of healthy recipes and workout plans on my site for you to check out hope it helps

good luck

no because it isnt enough serving wise for an adult's body. and the nutrients are specially altered for children and their specific needs. + thats gross.

well, first let me say you really need to speak with a doctor about any kind of diet plan before beginning it . I will also say this though for myself why would you want to consume or eat baby food , I mean ya it might have some protein , you could end up losing lots of bone tissue later in your older and or mature age . Osteoporosis is nothing just sneeze at . Need to take it more serious . Exercise is just as important as diet the two go together.

lol ummmm no because baby food is supposed to help u grow so if u eat baby food u will gain weight and hieght maybe sooo dont be a baby =D

Baby food is not formulated for adults. Why would you not just eat healthy adult food?

i say it is fine, so try it and let us know, maybe do weekly and monthly updates

I found this on Yahoo Health

It is a time-honored tradition to make resolutions at this time of year. If your resolution is to lose weight - and keep it off, then keep reading! Here are six simple tips that will have you losing weight in a balanced and healthy way.

1. Lose weight with water.
Water is essential for everybody - it is also the key to losing weight. If you haven't been drinking enough water, your body has developed a pattern of storing water. This water retention equals extra unwanted weight.

By drinking more water, you are not only flushing out toxins, you are also teaching your body that it no longer needs to store water. Drink at least 60 ounces of water (about 8 glasses) a day. Boil water and sliced lemons, and drink this throughout the day to help with fluid retention. If you are still not sold on the merits of water, try this on for size: water is a natural appetite suppressant.

2. Soup up your weight loss program.
A simple dietary change will have you shedding pounds: eat a bowl of soup at least once a day. Nutritious, low-salt soups will nourish you as they flush waste from your body. People who eat a serving of soup daily lose more weight than those who eat the same amount of calories but don't eat soup. Go for homemade soup whenever possible, as canned soups are loaded with salt and chemicals.

3. Eat early to keep weight off.
The human body follows a circadian rhythm, which means that the same foods eaten at breakfast and lunch are processed differently than when eaten at dinner. Studies show that when you eat your daily protein and fat at breakfast you tend to lose weight and have more energy; however, eating the same things at dinner tend to increase tendencies toward weight gain. I suggest that you eat your last meal of the day by 7 p.m.

4. Eat smaller meals, more frequently.
Follow an eating schedule with five little meals every day. Eating steadily through the day keeps you from becoming famished and overeating at your next meal. Make a low-fat trail mix from raw almonds, pumpkin seeds, dried plum, and apples and have it available at all times to avoid the tempting lure of high-calorie snacks.

5. Adopt a balanced approach to your diet.
Most of the fad diet programs out there nowadays are extreme in a few recommended foods, or else deprive the body of food altogether. This works in opposition to our metabolism and the results usually don't last, producing a yoyo effect that depresses your metabolic function - not to mention your self-esteem. We are natural beings that need a balance of nutrition from all sources.

Your diet should consist of a balance of organic sources of lean protein, complex carbohydrates, whole grains, legumes, nuts, fruits, and vegetables. Instead of white rice and pasta, opt for brown rice, bulgur, millet, or buckwheat.

Eat more green, chlorophyll-rich foods such as broccoli, kale, spinach, and asparagus. Eliminate candy, sugar, soda, and all simple sugars from your diet. Excess sugar ends up being stored as fat in your body, which results in weight gain. Also, keep dairy to a minimum because most dairy products are high in saturated fat. Avoid fatty foods, processed or fried foods.

6. Walk off the weight.
The No. 1 cause of weight gain is inactivity. Physical activity is the key to speeding up your metabolism and burning excess calories. The best way to be physically active is to use your legs! Walk as often and as long as you can. Always take the stairs instead of the elevator.

Step outside during your break at work and take a walk around your building. Consider joining a local hiking club. Try taking a walk 30 minutes in the morning or 30 minutes in the early evening.

I hope this article helps you shed some pounds and add on the years! I invite you to visit often and share your own personal health and longevity tips with me.

May you live long, live strong, and live happy!
