One of the things that we have always advocated at Ukmedix News is that simple changes to your lifestyle can over time have a big impact on your weight. The weight loss tip which we are going to give you today which could completely change your weight and therefore your life is to eat porridge!!

Wait wait, don’t go away! It is true that porridge has this image of being cooked in prisons, orphanages, [think Oliver Twist] and in old fashioned schools but this perception is fast been eroded as more and more young people jump onto the porridge bandwagon and swear that it is the best thing for their diet and their weight.
As well as being a food which warms you up in the morning it is full of natural fibre which means that it will release energy slowly throughout the day and thus stop you suffering from hunger pangs due to energy highs and lows. Many nutritionists argue that breakfast is the most important meal of day and what you eat at breakfast will set the standard for what you eat for the rest of the day.
Porridge oats can be made extremely tasty by adding fruit or being added to a fruit smoothie along with skimmed milk. The new fad in gyms all over Los Angeles is to have porridge smoothies after a morning workout which actually makes you feel full up for the rest of the day.
Porridge is extremely low in fat and clinical testing has shown that it can reduce blood pressure and improve arterial health thus lowering the chances of you suffering from heart disease. Porridge has even been accredited with improved sexual health in men and this is likely to be linked to the fact that men who eat a healthy breakfast have better hearts than those who don’t.
Why not give it a try for a week and see how you feel? Make sure you buy good quality oats and try different variations. You never know porridge could change your life, make you lose weight and even improve your sex life.
