Potatoes can be one of your biggest allies in your weight loss program if you learn about them and everything they have to offer you.
This amazing vegetable is one of the most popular in America. Its popularity even surpasses lettuce and onions. Many people never get tired of eating this food because it can be fixed in so many different ways. About one third of the meals eaten by Americans include this veggie in some form.
One great thing about the spud is that it adds the bulk to your meal that lets you know you’ve eaten something and when stored and prepared properly the potato packs a very nutritional punch.
Spuds are high in fiber, carbohydrates, contain more potassium than a banana and one medium sized potato contains about 45% of the recommended daily amount of Vitamin C that’s recommended for good health.
A potato is naturally low in calories and contains no fat, sodium, or cholesterol. Potato skin provides a helpful dose of fiber, iron, potassium, calcium, zinc, phosphorus, and several B vitamins.
This vegetable is best and it retains more of its natural nutrition when stored in a cool, dark place such as a basement or cellar. Too much light in your storage area may result in green potatoes. Refrigeration or freezing should be avoided when possible because the starch is turned to sugar by the cold and that causes them to turn dark when cooked.
You can prepare potatoes by boiling them, steaming them, or even roasting them. If at all possible, you should avoid putting your spuds in the refrigerator or freezing them, as cold will turn the potato starch to sugar and cause them to turn dark when they are cooked.
Mashed, baked, fried, boiled and broiled are a few of the ways this amazing vegetable can be prepared. The calories you get from eating potatoes come more from the toppings you add than the veggie itself.
Piling on the sour cream, chives, bacon bits, chili, cheese or butter adds up a LOT of calories you don’t want or need BUT taking a cut up spud and baking it with French dressing creates a very tasty side dish that’s easy on calories and very filling.
In my opinion, every weight loss program should include potatoes as a part of the menu.

You may have decided to lose weight but don’t fully understand how important it is to your fat loss to be healthy. Eating healthy and exercising may not be enough if your body isn’t receiving all of the nutrients you are consuming.
“The average person over 40 has between 5 and 25 pounds of build-up in their colon. Parasites of all sizes thrive in this indisposed residue of fecal matter, slowly but surely toxifying the whole body.” Dr. Bernard Jensen
The important part of the above quote when you are trying to lose weight is that you may be carrying around anywhere from 5 to 25 pounds of built up fecal matter. This means you may experience an immediate weight loss of 5 to 25 pounds just by doing a colon cleanse.
“Parasites are a major cause of obesity since they deprive the body of the proper nutrients and leave us only empty calories as leftovers. The body also starts craving more and more food as it is starved for the ever so needed vitamins and minerals.” Dr. Donald Kelly
The above quote tells us that failure to properly cleanse the colon leaves us susceptible to parasites that may invade our body and consume nutrients you need for optimal health. Since the parasites are eating the good nutrients, you are still hungry and eat more. As a result of this malnutrition and overeating, your body is likely to store some of the nutrition it receives as fat to help ensure survival.
“Elimination of undigested food and other wastes from the body is as important as the correct digestion and assimilation of food. I can think of virtually nothing more vital than the prevention of the danger posed by obvious harmful effects of toxic poisons resulting from neglect and inability to effectively eliminate waste and debris from the body. Too few realize that inability to effectively eliminate debris from the body leads to such strong decomposition and fermentation in the colon that neglected accumulation of such decomposing matter can easily lead and, usually does lead to slow death.” Dr. Norman Walker
Failure to eliminate the undigested food and toxic poisons mentioned above robs you of the energy you need to feel good, maintain your health and to properly burn the calories you consume. Some of these calories may lie in your colon undigested but some may be turned to fat.
Water delivers nutrients from your colon to other parts of your body where they are used. If you have undigested foods, toxic poisons and other waste in your colon the normal delivery of both waste and nutrients is disrupted.
“Of all the polite topics of conversation, the state of one’s intestines is probably at the bottom of most people’s lists. Let’s face it: Irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, gas, diverticulitis and colon cancer are simply not things we like to discuss. And yet, as the old expression goes, death begins in the colon. Don’t believe it? Ask any coroner. Autopsies often reveal colons that are plugged up to 80 percent with waste material.” – Vegetarian Times, March, 1998
You don’t have to risk your health by being over weight and carrying around waste and toxins that may cause problems. Weight loss and a healthy colon go together like a hand and glove so please consider a grabbing a colon cleanser free trial and or beginning a weight loss program and give your overall health a fighting chance.
