Question by ^_^: What is an effective but healthy diet for a busy teenager?

Best answer:

Answer by gypsyute89
I think the best weight solution (especially for someone as busy as you!) is this; substitution. Before you reach for a bag of chips or hamburger try a Yoplait Yogurt instead. they are portable and delicious. Try granola, water or natural juice instead of soda, sandwiches instead of pizza. Excersice is great also if ytou have the time. Just whenever you eat something ask yourslef could I be eating something better? Also eat breakfast, it speeds the metabolism! Good luck and be patient!

Protein supplements are no longer only for bodybuilders and athletes. Protein is valuable to everyone and there are protein supplements available to anyone, fitting into every sort of lifestyle and dietary need.

Protein Supplements

There are some proteins the human body can make on its own and there are others provided by diet. Sometimes more than that is necessary for things like the post-workout period, or as part of a weight loss plan, or even just for a bit of added energy. Protein supplements can help with all those needs and come in many forms, including liquids, powders, protein shots (which are drinks, not needles), and even capsules.

Liquid: Liquid protein is quickly absorbed by the body, which means this is great for post-workout recovery or muscle building. Many diets use them to replace meals entirely. They are also good for people who are too busy for a meal, but don’t want to miss the energy and nutrition a meal provides.

Liquid whey protein shakes work virtually instantly and are great for people trying to avoid eating a lot of meat. Liquid protein shakes come in no or low-fat and low-carbohydrate versions, which makes them a good choice for people who want to lose weight, but still want to keep their protein intake high. The versions with fats and carbohydrates are good for people who need protein to fuel and recover from their workouts. Whey is a dairy product, so anyone who is lactose intolerant should check the ingredients of any liquid protein supplement before buying or using it.

Powder: One of the great things about protein powder is its versatility. It can be added to recipes seamlessly, or added to shakes and smoothies. It can be added to your current meals, or be used to replace a meal entirely. Whey powder is the most common form of this protein supplement.

Whey powder comes in a number of different ways, which have differing amounts of fats and carbohydrates. The ones that are higher in fats and carbohydrates are for those looking for something to help with muscle recover following a workout. The ones that are low in fats and carbohydrates are perfect for anyone trying to lose weight. Just remember that whey is dairy, so it should be avoided by anyone with lactose intolerance.

Protein powders do not have to be based on whey. There are soy powders, for instance, which are great for vegetarians, vegans, and anyone who cannot consume dairy. Soy is entirely made from soybeans. It doesn’t taste terribly well on its own, but some can be mixed with other substances, like juice, milk, or yogurt, which improves the taste.

Protein Shots: Protein shots are another option for extra protein. Though they are a smaller serving size than all the supplements, they still contain about 20 to 25 grams of protein, making these little bottles really powerful.

Protein shots cost about the same as any popular energy drink, but they are better for you than any energy drink. They will give you a much needed boost of energy, and come in a lot of great flavors, like lime, raspberry, grape, and apple, among others.

Is It Safe to Use Protein Supplements?

As with anything, protein supplements work best as part of a balanced diet. It is possible to have too much protein, but this is true of any good thing. The average adult needs between 55 and 65 grams of protein daily. If you believe you are low, then protein supplements can help. They may even help you lose weight more quickly, if losing weight is your goal. Protein supplements will certainly give you more energy, help you build stronger muscles, and make you healthier in general.

Where Can Dietary Protein Be Found?

Some foods have a lot of protein, if you feel you need more in your diet. They also have other nutrients every human body needs to function at its best.

Understanding proper lighting and using that lighting while applying your makeup makes a big difference in how your makeup looks.  The better your face is lit, the more even your makeup application will be, helping you to achieve a pretty and natural finish.  Beware if you are applying your makeup in a dimly-lit room – it is easy to overdo your application.

So when possible try to apply your makeup in a well-lit area.  It is very helpful to be by a window for natural light.   Natural daylight is the very best light for checking your makeup blending skills and intensity of the colors you’ve applied. In natural daylight, it is easy to see if you need to add color in some areas or tone down the amount of color in other areas.  You can check your makeup application by looking in a mirror either next to a window or by going outside.  “I have had to prepare many poorly-lit areas for makeup application in my 18+ years as a makeup artist, even removing lamp shades to get better lighting on the face of my subject!  And no matter what the lighting was on-set, when possible I almost always took my subject outside to check his or his makeup in natural daylight,” says Jennifer Kalman, Commercial Makeup Artist and Founder of www.QDazzleProm.com.  If your makeup application looks great in natural daylight, it will look great in most other settings, even in fluorescent office lights or soft evening lights.

Once you’ve settled yourself near a good light for applying your makeup, here’s another helpful tip.  For best results during your makeup application, while holding your mirror to apply your makeup be sure to turn your face (and mirror) up toward the light source, whether your light source is a lightbulb or the the natural daylight outside a window.  By doing this, you can achieve an even coverage of light on your face while you apply your makeup so that no shadows will distort the amount of color you apply.  For example when applying blusher, if one side of your face is in a shadow and one side of your face is in the light, you might be tempted to apply more blush on the side in the shadow because there is little light on that side of your face and you’re unable to clearly see the amount of color you have already applied.

Of course, sometimes it is not possible to apply or at least check your makeup in natural daylight.  In these cases, try to find the brightest indoor lighting possible.  Then use the above tip of turning your face and mirror toward the light source so that there are no shadows on your face while you apply your makeup.

When you’re aware of the lighting around you before applying your makeup, you will have the best results with your makeup application.

Commercial Makeup Artist, Jennifer Kalman, has 18+ years of experience applying makeup for thousands of proms, pageants, weddings, personalities, print media, TV and video.  Her professional credentials have included makeup for LeAnn Rimes, Troy Aikman, Dixie Chicks and the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. Counted among her many commercial makeup clients are Pepsi, American Airlines, Frito-Lay, Dr. Pepper, and Verizon. This expertise contributed to the development of QDazzle.com and QDazzle(R) High-Pigment Makeup Colors.  Jennifer desired to provide a resource to coach women how to polish their makeup skills (skills they can use for a lifetime) rather than applying their makeup for them once.  Her website, designed to help pageant contestants of all ages refine their makeup skills so they can be prepared and confident on stage, contains makeup instruction, techniques, and ‘Jennifer’s Makeup Tips Blog’, along with brilliantly-hued High-Pigment Makeup Colors.

Proteins are the hardest for the body to digest and start burning energy from the moment that they enter the blood stream. Proteins, in addition to being slow to digest, are vital for every cell in the body and play a major role in a number of functions. Despite the importance of the nutrient, there is an upper limit to the amount of protein that is needed by the body. Ironically, the need for protein is never greater than in the first six months of human life, when pound for pound, the protein need is double what it will be for the rest of life, no matter what the circumstance or life stage.

Some of the Roles of Protein

The most obvious role of protein is in the creation and repair of muscles, but there are countless others. These include:

• - Building of connective tissue
• - Building cell membranes
• - Contributing to the bone matrix
• - Regulating the pH balance of the blood
• - Forming hormones and enzymes, including those that play a role in the regulation of sleep, digestion and ovulation
• - Boosting immune function (antibodies are proteins)
• - Creating new blood cells
• - Creating RNA and DNA
• - Creating neurotransmitters

(Source: Nelson, 2009)

The Digestive Process of Protein

All proteins are made of a number of amino acids. While the human body can create many of these amino acids on its own, there are eight which are not made in the human body and must come from food sources every day. These are called the essential amino acids. A protein is either considered to be complete, meaning that it has all eight of the essential amino acids, or incomplete, meaning that it is lacking one or more of them. These eight amino acids are leucine, isoleucine, valine, threonine, methionine, phenylalanine, tryptophan and lysine. Animal proteins are complete, while most plant proteins are not.

These amino acids are technically simple compounds created from molecules of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen or nitrogen. Each of the amino acids will link together to form a chain, which are then referred to as a peptide. The average peptide will have over 500 amino acids in it.

Each protein is broken down into the simple amino acids during the digestive process. These in turn are absorbed and used by the body to make new amino acids, enzymes and hormones.

During digestion, the protein is first sent to the stomach, where hydrochloric acid in the stomach’s gastric acid breaks it down into its first components. The gastric enzyme pepsin, which is the only protease able to digest collagen, a protein in animal connective tissue, digests the amino acids. (Enzymes are classified as either proteinases or proteases.) The next step in the process takes place in the duodenum, the first segment of the small intestine. Here, the pancreas will deliver its own protease enzymes, trypsin and chymotrypsin. Trypsin works to break down the protein into amino acids through a process called hydrolysis, where a water molecule is inserted between two amino acids to break their bond and separate them. At this point in the digestive process, the amino acids are small enough to pass through the intestinal lining and throughout the rest of the body.

During exercise, the production of the body’s proteins is decreased. The remaining protein is then converted to free amino acids and used for fuel for the working muscle groups. After the exercise is done, especially in the case of heavy resistance training, the rate of protein synthesis remains low while breakdown rates remains elevated for about twenty four hours. Without a new source of protein during this, the recovery period, the breakdown will likely exceed that of synthesis and the body will turn to its own muscles for fuel.

Evaluating Proteins

All proteins, especially those being used by elite, endurance and strength athletes, are evaluated on two scales. The Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAA) judges the completeness of a protein. A complete protein, meaning one that has all eight essential amino acids, will earn a score of 1 on this scale. The second score is the biological value (BV) score, which will judge how much of a protein is actually retained by the body after it is broken down. All protein types are often judged against the egg on this scale because it scores 100, meaning that all of the protein that you get from eating an egg is retained by the body. Unless you are an elite athlete, it is not likely that you know or care about the PDCAA or BV score of your protein, and there are simpler ways to evaluate the foods and supplements that you consume.

Your proteins should be low fat, especially in saturated fat. They should be low in calories, or at least not extremely high in calories in relation to the portion size. Finally, they should taste good and have other nutritional benefits as well.

Protein supplements should be high in protein but low in calories and should not have added sugars or fats. Read all labels carefully, since some of the brands of protein bars are trying to pretend to be healthy when they bear little difference from the average candy bar.

Know Your Protein Need

From the infant in his cradle to the elite body builder to the old man who is playing shuffleboard, all humans need protein. Their actual need is as individual as they are, based on their age, their health, their weight and their activity level. Protein is important, but it can also be dangerous when consumed in extremely high amounts. The experts suggest that the upper limit is no more than 35% of the total daily calories, even for the elite athletes. As mentioned before, there is no greater need for protein than during the first six months of life, when the baby should be getting 2.2 grams of protein per kg of body weight. The elite body builder, on the other hand, should be getting around 1.6 grams per kg of body weight. (Source: US Guidelines on Protein and Nutrition) For the average sized man, that translates to roughly about 60 grams of protein per day, or about 8 ounces of meat. Women need less protein than men, unless they are pregnant, when the need increases dramatically. However, when a woman is not pregnant, excessive protein can lead to increased calcium loss through the urine, putting her at a greater risk for developing osteoporosis. (Source: Tsang, RD 2007)

For the average person, the protein need is between .5 and .8 grams per kg of body weight each day (based on RDA recommendations and equal to around 1 gram per pound of body weight), more if you are very active and less if you’re sedentary. Timing is important as well, with athletes advised to eat a small protein meal or take their choice of protein supplement before they work out and immediately afterward so that the body does not resort to tearing down its own muscle mass in search of energy.
