Eat some fat-burning foods

So you are foodie and whether you're sad, happy or just tensed, you seek comfort in food. Pizzas, burgers, ice creams, cookies and milkshakes have a very soothing effect on your mood. But deep down in your heart, you know that you are going to put on weight by resorting to such sinful edible indulgences but you somehow manage to give a deaf ear to your inner voice. Some weeks and months later, everyone around comments on how much weight you have gained. You feel depressed by this and desperately wish there were foods, whose consumption whose consumption wouldn't add bulge to your body. 

Well there's some good news. There are certain natural foods known for their fat-burning properties, which boost your metabolism and burn some fat in the process too. The logic here is simple, these fat-burning foods require more calories to digest than they contain. These foods also help in detoxifying the body. One thing to be kept in mind is that you shouldn't make these foods your only diet, rather they should be incorporated in your daily diet.

Celery 
Celery is an excellent source of vitamin C and fibre. It contains negative calories i.e. you burn calories to digest them and this property of celery is very beneficial for those who want to lose weight. 



Oatmeal 
Making oatmeal a regular part of your diet is beneficial because they are loaded with soluble fibre that results in a slower energy release in the body. Because of this process, the metabolism in the body runs at a steady pace which is perfect for losing fat.

Berries 
Berries in the form of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc. are a good source of natural dietary fibre that is known to lower down the rate of carbohydrate absorption in the body. They prevent the insulin levels in the body to rise, which are known to cause storage of fat in the body.


Beans 
Beans contain a lot of fibre that help reduce the absorption of fat in the body. Also, beans contain high amounts of protein that is beneficial in building body muscle. Body muscle cells are known to burn calories at a much higher rate.

Green tea 
Green tea is packed with powerful anti-oxidants and contains a compound epigallocatechin gallate that is known to prevent serious health problems. Green tea fires up the body's metabolism thus, aiding the body to burn more calories.

Grapefruit 
Grapefruit is one of the best natural foods that helps to kickstart fat loss by increasing the body's metabolism. That's because it contains a good amount of fat-burning enzymes. Also, because it is high in fibre, one feels fuller by eating less.

Nuts 
Almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, etc. are actually quite healthy as they are packed with vitamins, fibre, protein, minerals and monounsaturated fats that help in controlling blood sugar levels and aiding fat loss. Eat them in moderation. TNN

Dark Pigmentation Around Neck



Dark pigmentation around the neck is known as  Acanthosis nigricans. It  is a skin condition characterized by dark, thick, velvety skin in body folds and creases. Most often, acanthosis nigricans affects your armpits, groin and neck.

With acanthosis nigricans, you may naturally be concerned about the appearance of your skin. Some steps may help lighten the affected areas of your skin. There is no specific treatment for acanthosis nigricans , but treating any underlying conditions, such as diabetes and obesity, may cause the changes in your skin to fade.
Symptoms

Skin changes.
Skin changes are the only signs of acanthosis nigricans. You'll notice dark, thick, velvety skin in body folds and creases  usually in your armpits, groin and neck. Sometimes the lips, palms or soles of the feet are affected as well.
Slow progression. The skin changes appear slowly, sometimes over months or years.
Feasible itching.  The affected areas may itch.

Causes
Acanthosis nigricans is often associated with conditions that increase your insulin level, such as type one diabetes or being overweight. If your insulin level is high, the additional insulin may trigger activity in your skin cells. This may cause the characteristic skin changes.
Solution for dark pigmentation
As i have told you there is no treatment for this. Doctors will ask you to reduce the weight. Many people would have tried all the home remedies in this world like margosa leaves, sandal powder, bleach and loofah cleaning. But it is very difficult to get result with this.
Homeopathy is the best medicine for this
I have seen my relative who had this problem feels better after taking homeopathy treatment. It is not costly also. You can feel the difference within two months. Anyone who have this problem can and should definitely try homeopathy. I am not a homeopathy specialist. But i have seen my relative after taking homeopathy her dark pigment around the neck has reduced to a large extent.
