Lose fat fast for free! Ninja Diet step 2.

2. Avoid Dairy products.

Most cheese is 70% fat.
In America many studies clearly show that milk does not build strong bones.
Nor does it cause weight loss, reduce PMS, or deliver the other supposed benefits claim by the dairy industry has used in media promotions. The science supporting milk for bone health was always shaky, and with a new Harvard study showing zero benefit for children’s bones. Similarly, the Harvard Nurses’ Health Study, which followed more than 72,000 women for 18 years, showed no protective effect of increased milk consumption on fracture risk.

 .

This matters because dairy products do a surprisingly amount of harm to your body.
First, they are the leading source of saturated (“bad”) fat in the western diet, and that causing obesity, heart disease, and diabetes.
Meanwhile, nonfat milk gets most of its calories from sugar—that is, lactose. Ounce for ounce, nonfat milk is about as fattening as a typical soda. Dairy products are under investigation for their roles in type 1 diabetes, prostate cancer, arthritis, digestive problems, and childhood anemia, among other conditions.

A study published in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, which followed adolescent girls’ diets, physical activity, and stress fractures for seven years, found that girls consuming the most dairy products and calcium had no added bone protection. In fact, among the most physically active girls, those who got the most calcium in their diets (mostly from dairy products) had more than double the risk of stress fractures.³ While calcium is important for bone health, studies show that increasing consumption beyond approximately 600 milligrams per day—amounts that are easily achieved without dairy products or calcium supplements—does not improve bone integrity.²

In studies of children and adults, exercise has been found to have a major effect on bone density.^4-6

You can decrease your risk of osteoporosis by reducing sodium,⁷increasing intake of fruits and vegetables,^7,8 exercising,^5,9 and ensuring adequate calcium intake from plant foods such as kale, broccoli, and other leafy green vegetables and beans. You can also use calcium-fortified products such as breakfast cereals and beverages.

Fat Content and Cardiovascular Disease

Dairy products—including cheese, ice cream, milk, butter, and yogurt—contribute significant amounts of cholesterol and are the number one source of saturated fat in the diet.¹⁰ Diets high in fat and saturated fat can increase the risk of heart disease, among other serious health problems. In two studies, hypertension—a known risk factor for heart disease—was significantly decreased among patients who practiced strict avoidance of animal products.^11,12

Cancer

Prostate and breast cancers have been linked to consumption of dairy products, presumably related to increases in a compound called insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I).¹⁵ IGF-I is found in cow’s milk and has been shown to occur in increased levels in the blood of individuals consuming dairy products on a regular basis.^16,17 Other nutrients that increase IGF-I are also found in cow’s milk.

Case-control studies in diverse populations have shown a strong and consistent association between serum IGF-I concentrations and prostate cancer risk.¹⁸ One study showed that men who had the highest levels of IGF-I had an almost two-fold increased risk of prostate cancer, compared with those who had the lowest levels.¹⁹ Other findings show that prostate cancer risk was elevated with increased consumption of low-fat milk, suggesting that too much dairy calcium could be a potential threat to prostate health.¹⁸

Dairy products account for approximately 65 percent of estrogens consumed. Estrogens (and their metabolites) are a risk factor for breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers due, in part, to their ability to influence cell proliferation.²⁰ A study suggesting that milk consumption may contribute to breast cancer risk reported that 15 different estrogen metabolites were found in various milk products. (There were no appreciable amounts of estrogen metabolites found in soymilk.)²⁰ Cutting fatty foods is priority No. 1 when you endeavor to lower your risk for breast cancer, and, as noted above, dairy products are the No. 1 source of saturated fat in the diet.

Enough already.

Ninja diet a no oil plant-based food that eliminates dairy products, in combination with exercise, and stress management, can not only prevent heart disease, but may also reverse it.^13,14 It is time to bring humanity back into health and.
 The Diabetes Prevention Program proved that lifestyle changes are more powerful than drugs for preventing diabetes.And in 2006, PCRM’s research team showed that a plant-based diet was a powerful treatment for people with diabetes. Avoiding dairy products helped participants slim down, cut their blood sugars, and
reduce their need for medicines.

Ninja Diet... this's why we want to lose Fat!

The 100 million diabetic dilemma: By Dr. Neal Barnard at TEDxFremont

Currently 100 million Americans are pre-diabetic or diabetic, and one in three kids born after the year 2000 will develop diabetes. Neal Barnard, clinical researcher and founder of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), identifies the causes of this serious issue and advises us how we can fight these statistics.

Don't wait till something goes wrong with your health start Ninja Diet with us for free. A good healthy diet 

Lose fat fast for free! step 1.

Ninja Diet Step 1. Avoid eating Vegetable Oils, every kind of oil... 

Begin by telling yourself  “The fat you eat is the fat you wear,” and remind them that there is nothing attractive about wearing olive, flaxseed, or corn, animal fat.*  For this reason alone, most of your should steer clear of so-called “healthy oils” derived from plant-foods.  

Gaining weight can be expected from consuming high-fat whole foods, such as nuts, seeds, avocados and olives, as well as “free oils,” which are usually purchased in bottles. However, the shared propensity for weight gain is where the similarity between unprocessed plant foods and free oils ends.

I consider whole foods, even those with high concentrations of fats, to be health-promoting.  However, people interested in losing weight should avoid nuts, nut butters, seeds, seed spreads, avocados, and olives, since they all serve as sources of concentrated, easy to consume, calories.  When I was growing up we had nuts in their shells as a special treat for Christmas.  Now these same nuts come bare-naked, salted, and sometimes roasted in additional oils—and the twist of the lid of the jar brings effortlessly to your lips (and your hips) handfuls of fat-laden, calorie-concentrated rich food. These same foods, however, may be a welcome addition for growing children and active adults.  But they should be used sparingly by most of us.

Chemically speaking, free oils are chains of carbon found in a purified state.  Extraction processes have removed all of the other ingredients of the whole food.  Thus, free oils are no longer intermixed with the naturally-designed and balanced environment of proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and ten thousand other chemicals found originally in the plants.  Free-oils are not food—at best these are medications, causing some desirable effects, and at worst; they are serious toxins causing disease. 

*The main distinction between fats and oils is whether they’re solid or liquid at room temperature.

Oils Are Essential for Health but...

The human body can synthesize from raw materials almost all of the organic compounds needed to build and maintain itself.  However, there are a few basic elements that it cannot synthesize.  These must be obtained from the food, and include 11 vitamins, 8 amino acids, and 2 kinds of fat.  Fortunately, except for two vitamins (vitamin D from the sun and B12 from bacteria), all of these essential nutrients are made by plants and found in abundant quantities in a diet based on whole starches, vegetables, and fruits.

Fats are made of chains of carbon which differ in length, and the number and positions of double bonds (a chemical term for a dual linkage between carbon atoms).  Animals cannot create double bonds after the third and sixth carbon on the chain.  Only plants can make this arrangement.  The result is that only plants can synthesize omega-3 and omega-6 fats. These are referred to as “essential fats.” We, like all other animals, must get these essential fats directly by eating plants or indirectly by eating animals that ate plants and stored these essential fats in their tissues.  For example, fish store the omega-3 fats made by algae—fish cannot synthesize this kind of fat.

	hemp seed	canola (rapeseed)	primrose
	soybeans	soybeans
	walnut	walnut

Practical Ways to Eliminate Oils in Cooking Don’t add vegetable oils when cooking Use non-stick pots and pans Brown or soften vegetables in water Sauté with non-fat liquids Replace oil in baking with fruit or tofu Use commercial fat-replacers Lighten texture with carbonated water

The point is to Lose fat fast, Take oil out of your diet.

Not a day goes by that I don’t hear someone say to me, “My diet is completely vegan, but I am still 40 pounds overweight.” The oily sheen on her face and hair are a clear give away that she hasn’t been willing to stop adding the half cup of extra virgin olive oil to her spaghetti sauce.  Many people fall short of their health and appearance goals because they have yet to eliminate all the added vegetable oils from their cooking.  Eating out is a major stumbling block.  More often than not, even after using the best communication skills with the waiter, the diner plate still glistens with an oil slick.  Avoiding free vegetable oils is the last important hurdle for people seeking better health.  Take the first step—just say “No” to these really unessential added oils.

Ninja’s Guide for Healthy Living.

• Exercise is important, but jogging is for wimps.
Plenty of exercise can be had leaping from bushes
and kicking joggers in the head.

• Laughter is medicine. Ninjas practice the art of inappropriate laughter. Laughing when hearing about cancer also shows the Ninja’s strength.

• Ninjas occasionally, without warning, stab friends with throwing stars. Life is random. Ninjas embrace this fact of life.

• Killing the wrong person happens. Ninjas know this. It’s useless to live in the past.

• Fiber in your diet is important. Ninjas eat the shirt off of a complete stranger’s back at least once a week.

• Sex is extremely important to one’s physical and mental health.
Ninjas therefore fantasize about sex two, three, maybe seven times a day.

• Everyone knows yoga classes are filled with women.
Ninjas prove their strength and impress the ladies by killing the yoga instructor.

• Samurais are the source of much stress for Ninjas. They think they’re soooooo cool with their armor and swords and those awesome helmets. It’s in a Ninja’s best interest not to think about such things.
