ABOUT MILK & DIETING
Milk is not
only rich in calcium and good for strengthening your bones - it will also help
you get back your tiny hiney! Studies indicate that individuals who enjoyed
three servings of milk per day lost weight at a faster rate than those who didn't
include calcium as a fortified part of their diet regime.
In addition,
individuals who incorporated milk into their daily diet were able to maintain
their weight more efficiently then those individuals who didn't include milk.
Many dieters
opt not to include milk as part of their weight loss program because milk and
milk by-products tend to be pretty pricey in calories and fat. But in
Today's World there are so many low-calorie, calcium-fortified products available
to those of us who are watching both our waistline and hiney parts. It's
a great excuse to go shopping, so get out there!
What to buy?
What are your best food sources for calcium?
Your best source
of calcium comes from a bottle or a carton- of the REAL FOOD - not from a bottle
calcium supplements. In studies, REAL worked better than artificial. Most
individuals should intake a minimum of 1,200 milligrams of calcium per day.
Here are your best sources:
Nonfat yogurt - 1 cup contains 56% of your recommended daily allowance.
skim milk - 1 cup contains 44% of your recommended daily allowance.
Part-Skim Ricotta Cheese - 1/2 cup contains 42% of your recommended daily allowance.
Most Cheese - 1 ounce generally contains 25% of your recommended daily allowance.
