Healthy Diet Tips For Your Cat

artificial flavors

The essential nutritional needs for cats consist of meat protein, poultry, fish, taurine, dietary fat, water and numerous minerals and vitamins. Carbohydrates tend to be additional fillers in some foods, but these are not really necessary. It doesn't matter if you decide to give your cat dry or canned food, as this is actually your choice. However, the dry foods are less costly and can easily be removed from your cats diet.


When you are giving your cat any form of dry food ensure that he is getting an abundance of fresh water. The canned foods will contain 70 - 80 % water; this means there will be less need for drinking. Whenever you are choosing healthy cat food, low-cost items are not really a good choice. Inexpensive cat food brands have more filler and much less nutrition value, which might cause your cat to become hungry on a regular basis and eat too much.

Healthy Diet To Lose Weight


1. Breakfast starts the day off right


You just got up from sleeping, a mini-fast. Your body needs nutrients and calories immediately. Especially protein. So for this diet, you'll need to eat eggs. I prefer 3-4 scrambled eggs. This gets you the protein and fills you up.


I'll give you a "secret food" that helps this diet a lot... use it as much as possible. It's black beans. A single can of black beans has 25 grams of fiber and 25 grams of protein... with no sugar. If you can, heat 1/2 of a can of black beans for 5 minutes and spread over your eggs.

Acid Indigestion During Pregnancy

acid indigestion

Acid indigestion during pregnancy is a very common complaint, but can be managed with some simple measures. In this article, you can find out what causes acid indigestion during pregnancy, as well as its symptoms and treatment.


Heartburn and acid indigestion are some of the most common complaints during pregnancy. Majority of women experience these problems for the first time in their life during pregnancy, while for others the symptoms of acid indigestion worsen during this period. Acid indigestion during pregnancy is mainly caused by the changes in the structure or shape of the body, as well as the hormonal changes that take place during this period. The irritation or the burning sensation that can be felt in the chest and the back of the throat due to acid indigestion is caused by the regurgitation of the stomach content and the acids. Usually, the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), a valve like opening helps to keep the stomach content from flowing back to the esophagus. When this sphincter fails to function properly or it weakens, the stomach acids and foods can flow back to the esophagus. This condition is also known as acid reflux disease or gastroesophageal reflux disease.
