Whether in formal or informal settings, one of the most effective icebreakers is the subject of weight. The issue of weight loss seems to cut across all barriers: global, gender, social status, etc.
A simple click on google shows you the number of people all over the world searching for quick tips on losing those extra pounds. All over the digital space, we have fitness experts and nutritionists sharing tips on how to lose weight and keep in shape- both for health and vanity reasons. As a result, there is a lot of conflicting information online on how to go about it that leaves the reader confused.
Some fad diets fall short of starving oneself to death. Andy Rooney, the American radio and television writer who was best known for putting things into perspective once said “The biggest seller is cookbooks and the second is diet books, how not to eat what you've just learned how to cook.”
Despite the conflicting opinions, there seems to be an underlying theme that everyone agrees with – to lose weight you have to eat right. However, how easy is it to eat right in this fast-paced age? Anyone who has attempted dieting knows that fighting obesity can be a complex task. Fast food is easily available and accessible.
According to Phil McGraw, successful weight loss takes programming- not willpower. To lose weight, a person has to make easy lifestyle tweaks that are sustainable, convenient and do not interfere with a person’s normal productivity. This means to avoid fast food and other unnecessary junk, more time needs to go into preparation and package of healthy homemade food.
Recently, UK based paper The Guardianpublished a health report that debunked the myth of obesity being linked to genetics. According to researchers at Stanford University, people who eat the most vegetables and consume the fewest processed foods, sugary drinks and unhealthy fats shed the most kilograms. As the importance of fresh ingredients and home-cooked meals becomes known, many are making efforts to reduce their intake of fast food.
Thankfully, technology has provided a sustainable solution for healthy living that combines fitness and healthy cooking. LG’s smart innovation provides LG Health, an app that tracks activity levels and provides an interface and related content based on that information, so all types of users can customize the app to fit their own activity levels.
This enables a user to count the hours of activity, the number of calories burnt conducting a certain activity, as well as provided a work out plan that will enable the user to reach the ideal target weight.
LG Electronics General Manager Marketing Moses Marji says: “We respect the fact that our customers are very busy people, and we strive to offer convenience and time saving solutions that are user friendly. This is especially time saving to our consumers who are only able to do grocery shopping only once a week.”
Additionally, LG’s range of smart kitchen solutions are ideal for amateurs in the kitchen looking to flex their culinary muscles, while paying special attention to calories and health benefits in each food. In addition to intuitive interfaces that simplify even the most complex dishes, the appliance offer a range of features that boost convenience for those looking to eat right.
Smart oven settings cook food more naturally and efficiently, locking healthy nutrients in, and keeping harmful fats and sodium out. LG Lightwave Oven technology offers the flexibility to heat foods in multiple ways to cook healthier, tastier, gourmet-standard food with minimal effort.
“For those that still don’t have time to cook every day, LG’s advanced refrigerator designs minimize cold air loss and utilize adaptable compartments to prolong the lifespan of the items stored inside. With the Instaview refrigerator, you knock twice the fridge lights up and you are able to see what is inside without opening- it doesn’t get better than that,” adds Mr Marji.
