			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Obesity has been a major threat to the health conditions of millions of children as well as teens all across the world. In-spite of taking various precautionary measures to check the ongoing obesity problems of teens, there has not been found any major improvement. According to a latest statistics from U.S. Surgeons more than 12.5 million children and adolescents are suffering from obesity, and every year this number is rising at its leaps and bounds. Consequently this alarming obesity leads to several health related problems like high blood pressure, heart diseases, diabetes, lung and breathing problem and many more.</p>
<p>Owing to this frustrating problem, doctors and surgeons has now come up with an effective <a href="http://health.ucsd.edu/specialties/lapband/candidate/criteria.htm" target="_blank">obesity weight loss surgery</a>. Though the emergence of obesity weight loss surgery has paved the way out to this ongoing obesity problems but still weight loss surgery in adolescents has remained very uncommon. It’s all due to lack of information or awareness among people that they don’t prefer to go for <a href="http://health.ucsd.edu/specialties/lapband/candidate/criteria.htm" target="_blank">obesity weight loss surgery</a>.</p>
<p>There are few guidelines referred by the American Academy of Pediatrics, which should be taken into account before suggesting a patient for weight loss surgery. Patient should have at-least gone through six months of rigorous weight loss techniques, and only when he fails to come up with adequate result, he should be recommended for <a href="http://health.ucsd.edu/specialties/lapband/candidate/criteria.htm" target="_blank">obesity weight loss surgery</a>. Should have attained a proper physiological maturity level and should be at-least 13 years of age. During weight loss surgery, an adjustable gastric band is placed around the stomach to restrict the food intake directly into the abdomen, then a Y shaped part of small intestine is connected to a pouch so that food can bypass duodenum. This surgery shows a very rapid result and provides a slim and toned body within 9-12 months from the date of operation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Eating raw food solves many problems caused by cooked food. Cooking takes away Vitamins and other valuable nutrients from food. It alters the chemistry of the food substances; they are delicious to eat but harder to digest. Generally they cannot supply all the required nutrients for the body, so you body wants more food and you will end up with over eating.</p>
<p>Eating raw foods which are high in nutrition is good to your digestive system. They are designed to suit your system unlike the cooked food. Cooking destructs the fiber in foods and causes sticking problems in the digestive track. The majority of digestive problems faced by modern humans are caused by this only. On the other hand raw foods are rich in fiber, water and many more vitamins. They help to keep our digestive system clean and there by abolishing constipation of bowels, energizing our cells and circulatory system.</p>
<p>Raw foods ensure better blood flow in two ways:</p>
<ol>
<li>By depositing little toxins in our system and</li>
<li>By supplying necessary enzymes and vitamins needed for the system.</li>
</ol>
<p>In other words cooked food deposits more toxins to our body (the food which cannot be absorbed by the digestive system automatically turn into toxins); and as said earlier it destroys majority of vitamins and enzymes in the food materials.</p>
<p>Eating raw food reduces chances of obesity and increases activity of metabolism. Your body needs more qualitative food, not large quantity of bad food. So eat raw food, avoide cooked food as far as possible.</p>
