You will have extra bean mixture for future burritos. I space my meals out. 5 meals a day every 2-3 hours. That keeps my metabolism going and my belly full. There are times when I get close to that meal and I start to feel hungry. There are times when it gets to be about 9 pm and I want to reach for treats. Rather than give in to those cravings, I first chug some water! You would be amazing at how good you feel and how full you feel. Our bodies will often trick us into thinking we are hungry when we are actually dehydrated. It is hard to know for sure when you are in the moment. Did you know that when you are thirsty, it is actually to late. You had been dehydrated for some time and your body is now in desperation mode. Drink you water for weight loss!!!
Maca is a root from Peru; it’s a tuber, like a potato, and offers an amazing energy boost for those with low energy. Maca however, unlike coffee, offers energy in a non-caffeinated way that supports the body. Maca is a nutritionally dense super-food that contains high amounts of minerals, vitamins, enzymes and all of the essential amino acids. Maca root is rich in B-vitamins, which are the energy vitamins, and maca is a vegetarian source of B-12. To boot, maca has high levels of bioavailable calcium and magnesium and is great for remineralization. Maca root helps balance our hormones and due to an over abundance of environmental estrogens, most people’s hormones are a bit out of whack. Maca stimulates and nourishes the hypothalamus and pituitary glands which are the “master glands” of the body. These glands actually regulate the other glands, so when in balance they can bring balance to the adrenal, thyroid, pancreas, ovarian and testicular glands. Instead of providing hormones to the body, maca works as an adaptogen which means that it responds to different bodies’ needs individually. If you’re producing too much of a particular hormone, maca will regulate the production downward. However, if you’re producing too little, it’ll regulate the production upward. Hormones regulate many things including mood, growth, sexual development, and tissue function. Hormones also play a role in many diseases, like cancer and depression. Maca root has been shown to be beneficial for all sorts of hormonal problems including PMS, menopause, and hot flashes. Maca’s also a fertility enhancer and is best known for improving libido and sexual function, especially in men. For this reason, it’s earned the nickname “nature’s Viagra.” Credits to: http://www.naturalnews.com/027797_maca_root_hormone_balance.html Happy Monday!!
