Raspberry Ketones
Where can i get raspberry ketone?
Before you jump on the raspberry ketone bandwagon, there are a few things you should know about this over-priced, proclaimed weight-loss miracle in a bottle.
What is it? Raspberry ketone is the natural phenolic compound found in red raspberries (Rubus idaeus). In simple terms, this chemical compound gives berries their signature scent. Until recently, raspberry ketones were used primarily by the perfume and manufactured food industries, but now the compound is being sold in supplement form.
Raspberry ketones have been touted as the next weight-loss miracle drug, with manufacturers claiming that the ketones help your body break down fat more efficiently, helping you to lose more weight. Is it true?
Before you run to the pharmacy to pick up a bottle, at least finish reading this blog. What I'm about to share with you might surprise (or downright shock) you!

Raspberry ketones have never been tested on humans in scientific studies. That's right. You read that correctly. To date, there have been no human studies showing that raspberry ketones burn fat or benefit your weight loss. Now, if you are a rat, there are two studies of interest. One study gave male rats raspberry ketones, which resulted in an increased secretion of adiponectin, a hormone secreted by fat cells that helps the body break down fat. The result was less fat on the rat. In another rat study, the rodents were fed a high-fat diet with differing amounts of raspberry ketones. The rats that received more raspberry ketones burned more body fat and gained less fat tissue. A third study exposed fat cells in a test tube to raspberry ketones and found that the raspberry ketones stimulated the breakdown of the fat cells.
I'll agree that this is all very interesting research, but it is also considered very preliminaryresearch. Before making health and weight-loss claims about a supplement, don't you think we should have some double-blind studies involving real humans showing actual results with specific amounts of the supplement and assuring safety for the person? As a registered dietitian, I do.
But what about the claims I've seen on TV? When you hear raspberry ketone claims such as "slicing up fat molecules," "burning fat easier," or "weight-loss miracle," change the channel. There is no evidence to back up these claims. There has been no testing to determine safety or dosage amounts.
Read the fine print. If you have aging eyes like mine, pull out your "cheaters" and read the small print on the raspberry ketone bottle. This information has not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, nor has it gone through the rigorous double-blind studies required before a particular product can be deemed truly beneficial or potentially dangerous and prescribed in the treatment of any condition or disease.
Supplements such as these are not evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, unlike medications, which undergo rigorous testing. The bottom line: Buyer beware.

How to Lose Belly Fat ?
Part 1 of 2: Slimming Down
Create a calorie deficit. The only way to lose belly fat is to lose overall weight by simply reducing the amount of calories you consume on a daily basis. You can do this in two ways: by cutting down on portion sizes and by burning more calories through physical activity.
Begin keeping track of the amount of calories you consume on a daily basis. Don't forget to include the calories in beverages, cooking oils, salad dressings, and sauces.
It may be helpful to begin a food journal so that you can better track your intake. Websites like My Fitness Pal and Calorie King are designed to help people find the calorie content of the foods they eat, keep track of their intake, and even connect with other dieters.
The amount of calories you will need to eat in order to lose weight depends on your age, build, and level of physical activity. In general, though, your goal should be to consume fewer calories than you burn in a given day. You will need to create a calorie deficit of 3,500 in order to lose one pound.
Load up on protein. Dieting doesn't have to mean feeling hungry all the time. Lean proteins like chicken, turkey, fish, and tofu provide you with the energy you need and help keep you full without piling on unnecessary calories.
Your diet should consist of lean proteins, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and some dairy. Limit your intake of empty carbohydrates like rice and bread, which provide little in the way of nutrition and do not keep you full for long.
Reduce your intake of sugar, which tends to be stored in the body as fat if not burned off immediately through physical activity. If you have a sweet tooth, opt for healthy options like honey and dark chocolate.
Tackle stress. When we feel stressed, our bodies release the hormone cortisol, which among things, causes the body to store extra fat in the midsection. People who suffer from chronic stress tend to store extra fat in the midsection, even if they are otherwise slender. Eliminate stressful things, people, and situations from your life, if possible, and learn how to better manage the stress associated with elements of your life that can't be changed (like your job, for example).
One way to reduce the amount of stress you feel on a daily basis is to better manage your time so that you are not constantly rushing. Organize your time by writing down the tasks you need to complete and checking them off one-by-one as you complete them. If you don't already, use a personal planner to keep track of your obligations for the day/week/month.
Learning to better manage your finances can also help you deal with stress. Keep track of the amount of money you spend and learn to differentiate between necessities and luxuries.
Remember that while you can't always control your circumstances, you can control the way you react to your circumstances. Mind/body practices like yoga and meditation help you learn how to relax your mind so that you can better cope with stress, anxiety, and depression.
Drink in moderation. There's a reason why they call it a "beer belly;" but beer alone is not the main culprit behind belly fat. All alcohol eventually turns to sugar in the body, and tends to be stored in the midsection. Male drinkers, especially as they get older, are particularly prone to growing "beer bellies."
If you do drink, do so in moderation. Opt for wine when possible, as it is better for the heart and midsection.

Get physical. Exercise alone will not help you lose weight, but when coupled with a low calorie diet, physical activity can help speed up weight loss by burning calories and speeding up your metabolism. It is especially important to exercise if you work a sedentary desk job.
Running, hiking, biking, and kickboxing are all examples of calorie-burning cardio exercises. Aim to get at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise five times a week.
If you don't want to exercise every day, then find ways to incorporate more movement into your daily routine. Get in the habit of taking the stairs rather than the elevator, parking farther away from your destination, and using a standing desk.
Save toning exercises for later. Crunches and planks may help strengthen your core, but there is no use building muscle underneath a layer of fat. Focus on weight loss first, and then begin incorporating abdominal workouts into your routine.
Take measurements. Remember that muscle weighs more than fat, so if you are trying to lose weight while building muscle, the scale can be misleading. Your best bet is track your progress by measuring your waistline.
Use a tape measure to measure the circumference of your waist at the narrowest point and the widest point (about an inch or two below your belly button). Continue taking measurements as you diet to track your progress.
Find an exercise buddy. Having somebody to accompany you on your workouts can make exercise feel like fun rather than arduous work. If you are a competitive person, it may be beneficial to race with your weight-loss buddy to see who can reach their goal weight first.
Find ways to keep busy. Dieting can be hard, especially when you have too much free time to think about food. The best way to curb your appetite is to stay busy and indulge in activities that you enjoy more than (or as much as) eating. Make plans with friends, devote more time to your favorite hobbies, and so on.
Give yourself time. Usually, the beginning of a diet is the hardest because your body has grown accustomed to a certain lifestyle. Many people believe that it takes 27 days to make or break any new habit, and that includes dieting. Be patient in the beginning stages of your diet and remember that the occasional slip-up is inevitable.
The more weight you lose, the easier it will be for you to continue dieting, because your stomach will shrink and you will need less food to feel full.

How to lose weight fast?
Tired of carrying around those extra pounds? The best way to lose weight and keep it off is to create a low-calorie eating plan that you can stick to for a long time. If you just want to drop a few pounds fast, there are plenty of techniques and tips you can adopt to help you reach your short-term goals, too. Scroll down to Step 1 to learn more.
Method 1 of 5: Rapid Weight Loss Diets
Do a juice cleanse. This method is also known as the Hollywood diet.There are many different kinds of juice cleanses out there. However, the main concept is to only consume juices made from raw fruits and vegetables. The cleanse will remove toxins from your system, helping you lose weight while also making you feel more alert and healthy.
Most juice cleanses last for one to three days, though some will go up to seven days at a time. You can either buy a cleansing package from a health store or company online, or you can buy your own juicer.
Be sure you incorporate plenty of vegetables into your juicing routine. Fruit juice contains a lot of sugar, and drinking a lot of it will cause you to gain weight instead of losing it.
Some of the most popular cleanse brands include Cooler Cleanse, BluePrint, and Life Juice.

Consider the Master Cleanse. The master cleanse is a liquid-only diet that consists of a “lemonade” (lemon, cayenne pepper powder, maple syrup, and water), a salt-water drink, and herbal laxatives. The diet lasts for 16 days—three days of easing into the diet by only eating raw fruits and veggies, 10 days of the liquid only diet, and three more days easing back into solid foods.
Be aware that this diet should only be done for very short-term weight loss and is supposed to function as a detoxifying cleanse rather than a strict weight-loss routine.
3-Try the water diet.This diet involves drinking a daily total of about 64 fluid ounces (8 cups) of cold water, at regular intervals throughout the day. Drink a glass of water before each meal to suppress your appetite. Doing this will help you get into the habit of limiting the portions of food you consume during each meal. By drinking water, you will feel full before a meal, thus helping you consume less calories.
Keep in mind that this is not a water only diet. Water-only diets can actually be quite dangerous if done for too long a period of time. Your body needs nutrients to stay healthy and maintain a strong metabolism. If you drink only water for more than a couple of days, when you start eating again you run the risk of gaining even more weight because your metabolism will have slowed tremendously.
4-Try the cabbage soup diet. This diet claims it can help you lose up to 10 pounds in one week. The diet lasts for seven days with each day’s eating regimen changing from one day to the next. Each day, dieters eat cabbage soup, along with a limited selection of fruits, vegetables, or a lean meat.
The soup is made up of green onions, celery, tomatoes, mushrooms, carrots, one head of cabbage, and some low-sodium bouillon. Dieters also have the option to add a can of V8 juice or some spice-only soup mix.
5-Try the fasting diet. The idea behind this diet is that our bodies were built to go through both times of feasting and times of famine--as such, we should occasionally recreate the ‘famine’ part. This diet requires that for two days each week, you should only eat 500 (if you’re a woman) or 600 (if you’re a man) calories. On those fasting days, dieters should stick to eating only vegetables, seeds, legumes, and some fruit.
This diet requires that you continue your exercise regimen on fasting days as well as on regular days.
Ease into it by fasting for 1/2 day and seeing how you feel before you commit to longer-term fasting.
6-Consider the HCG diet. This is a highly controversial diet that combines injections or supplements of HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) with a severely restricted calorie intake.The calorie restriction alone (only 500 to 800 calories per day) is enough to promote weight loss in most people; it is significantly under the recommended daily calorie allowance, even for people attempting to lose weight. People give themselves doses of HCG via injections or in drop form.

How to Get a Patent ?
Determine the type of patent you need. There are three different types of patents offered by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, but only one is right for your invention. If your innovation doesn't fall into one of these categories, it may not be patentable.
A utility patent is granted for a new, original working product that has specific benefits for society, or a significant improvement on an existing useful process or product. Patent protection offered by a utility patent lasts for 20 years from the day the patent is granted. This is the most common type of patent.
Apply for a design patent if you have an invention for a new, often ornamental design on an existing product or process that doesn’t change the function of the original product. A design patent lasts 14 years from the date granted. This prevents other parties from copying the unique look of your product.
A plant patent is used for a new strain or variety of plant that you have developed through asexual reproduction. Protection for a plant patent exists for 20 years from the original patent application date.
Make sure your idea is original. Search through past patents on inventions similar to yours to make sure your idea is actually patentable. Don't waste time and money developing an invention that someone else has already patented. Searching through the huge database of patents can be a complex and trying task, but it is necessary to make sure someone hasn't beaten you to the idea.
Search the USPTO website. Here you can look for similar inventions using key words that describe the invention or that might be used in articulating how the invention works.
Google also has a patent search that you can use to explore existing patents.
Visit a patent depository library in your area for access to numerous records and databases that are free to the public. Librarians with specific knowledge on patent searches can assist you with your research.
Consider a provisional application. A provisional application is used when you want to secure your idea from theft while you are still hammering out the details of your invention. Filing one gives you a year to develop your product or get funding and help to file a more extensive non-provisional patent. Once you file a provisional application, you can claim "patent pending" while you set up for the real application.
Fill out the appropriate patent application. Include pertinent information, such as a detailed description of the invention, how the invention works and the usefulness of the invention to society. Your patent will often include drawings and schematics—any technical details needed to describe and produce your invention. Make sure to have your lawyer look it over to be positive everything is in order.
Include the names of all inventors associated with the specific invention and their addresses and the official name of the invention.
