We are meant to eat meat. We even have teeth that are designed for that – they are our little fangs beside our front four (incisors) teeth. Dentists even call our fangs ‘canines’.
Meat eating certainly can put on the weight because there’s a lot of fat throughout the meat itself. Even in lean meat. Animals carry fat just like we do.
If you are serious about losing cellulite I think you should handle meat eating this way:
• Limit your red meat intake to once a week,
• Prefer chicken and fish for protein.
• Get protein from sources other than red meat.
Try to avoid eating too much beef, lamb and pork as these meats have high fat contents. Instead, eat fish, poultry and vegetable proteins such as nuts and grains.
In my opinion, red meat is not a preferred food, certainly not for weight loss. You’re better off sticking to things you can digest and burn up very easily. And red meat takes ages to pass through your system. Up to 48 hours is time enough for the meat to ferment in your gut, so if you have another piece the following day you’re adding to that problem. If you do eat red meat, give it time to totally eliminate before you eat more.
If you’re really looking to lose cellulite, you need to eat things that are not going to sit in your stomach for long. Fruit and vegies digest very easily. They’re in and out: you utilise the vitamins and the minerals and the roughage, and bang, out it goes.
If you eat red meat late at night, you’re going to be digesting it while you’re sleeping and often you’ll have restless sleep. If someone were to take your pulse rate, it would be sky-high, as you digest that piece of meat.
However, if you intend to persist with eating red meat, when you cook it – don’t saturate it in fat.
Chicken
Skinless chicken breast is pretty good. Chicken stays in your system longer than vegetables, but digests faster than red meat. The fat is in the chicken skin, which you should avoid.
But beware the antibiotics and hormones that the chickens are fed. Chicken meat comes to us loaded with these. And the poor commercially raised chook has led a horrible life before ending up on your table. Choose free range if you can. They have happier lives and fewer chemicals, f
