Q. Does intake of diet rich in fiber will be beneficial for weight reduction? I feel obesity is a hindrance to a happy life and though many weight reduction and slimming techniques are currently available, how can one choose the correct technique. Does intake of diet rich in fiber will be beneficial for weight reduction?

A. Yes, researches indicate that the normal weight adults tend to eat more fiber and fruit than people who are overweight or obese. The difference found was that the normal-weight adults consume about 33 % more dietary fiber and 43 % more complex carbohydrates each day than people who are obese. Thus it is shown that consumption of a balanced diet that includes an adequate amount of fiber from plant foods will surely benefit your health and weight. You must have fiber rich foods if you are obese.

Q. I wish to know if someone has any idea on weight reduction without any exercise. l have heard that the carbohydrates and fats increase the risk of gaining weight but it’s an important diet constituent so how can I leave them or is there any replacement for them? I am pretty over weight and I do not exercise and to be honest I do not have the will or interest to exercise. I wish to know if someone has any idea on weight reduction without any exercise.

A. Excess intake of carbohydrate is not good for overweight persons. Even saturated fats are unhealthy. Even though they are important for your diet and health, I can straightaway tell you that excess consumption is not healthy. They can make you obese and prone to other disease as well. There is no replacement for them as they are main food for the humans. Fasting can help to reduce their bad effects, but you should fast once in a week only. The other way is to reduce their consumption and increase the intake fruits and vegetables. Do take lot of water to remove the toxins.
