Tried all kinds of ways to lose weight, from taking diet pills to slimming tea or even surgical method, and those did not work? Try going back to the basics and nature. You will be surprised on how simple, inexpensive and efficient theses two ways are.

1.  Prevent from eating too fast

A Japanese study, published in the British Medical Journal has found that people who eat quickly are more likely to put on weight. It is not just about how much one eats, but also the manner in which one devours his/her food.

Having studied the eating habits of more than 3,000 volunteer, the research team found that those who ate until they are too full as well as ate quickly had three times the likelihood of becoming overweight, as compared to those who neither ate just nice nor ate quickly.

Learn how to savour your food slowly! Allow your body to digest the food properly and cut the risk of gaining extra fats.

2.  Avoid sitting Too Long

In a study which was published in the journal Diabetes, researchers suggested that when we remain seated for too long, chemicals in the body which play a part in burning fat actually stop functioning.  Even if we exercise later in the day, it might not guarantee that the harm made earlier can be fully reversed.

Technology today has made our lives so convenient that we have machines to do everything, making us exercise even lesser. This leads to massive spikes in obesity, heart disease and other lifestyle and diet related conditions.

The fortunate thing is that just getting off our seats and onto our feet, even for brief but frequent moments, can once again trigger the fat-burning mechanism.

 If your job or whatever reasons require you to be seated for long hours at a stretch, try using computer software which reminds to you get up, stretch or just walk around, every 30 to 45 minutes. This may not seem like much, but in the very long run, this simple will have a profound impact on your health. Climb the stairs instead of taking the elevator. These small exercises will help you lead a healthier life, prevents you from getting obese.

Surprised how simple the two ways are? Try them out. It will work in the long run.
