Would you survive longer on a diet of just water OR on a diet of water and refined sugar? The answer: You would survive longer on just water. Sound impossible? Just ask the five sailors who were ship wrecked in 1793. The ship was filled with sugar, thus giving the marooned five a diet of sugar and water. When they were finally picked up, nine days later, they were in a wasted condition due to starvation. The story of the five sailors intrigued French physiologist Francois Magendie to conduct a series of experiments in which he fed dogs a diet of sugar. All of the dogs died. Magendie proved that as a steady diet, refined sugar is worse than nothing. How can sugar be worse than nothing? Plainly put, refined sugar is an anti-nutrient. It starts out as sugar cane, and then goes through an extensive refining process that destroys all of the enzymes, fiber, vitamins and minerals. What you're left with are empty, naked calories. The problem is that your body needs the enzymes, fiber, vita...

To lose 1 pound, you theoretically have to cut back on 3850 calories per week or 550 calories per day . Instead of cutting back on calories alone, you can burn some calories by exercising. One pound of body fat weight is approximately same as one pound of butter. If you look at a one pound package of butter, you will see it contains between 3850 calories. This means that each time a person burns 3850 more calories then what the person takes in, the person will loose one pound. About 3,850 calories adds up to about 1 pound. This applies whether they are food calories coming in, or calories (burned by exercise) going out. If you eat 3,850 calories more than your body needs, you will put on about 1 pound. If you use up 3,850 calories more than you eat, you will lose about 1 pound in weight. Most trainers will tell you that to lose a pound of fat you need to have a 3500 calorie deficit between your intake and calories burned. So one kilogram (2.2 lbs) of fat is 7,700 calorie. O...

So the details of my show. It was launch of Diet Pepsi Slim Can. What did I have to do in this? John Abraham is the brand Ambassador for diet Pepsi. So It was a mass workout. Me and my troupe choreographed a basic aerobic routine for the masses which people did along with us. Wearing heart rate monitors we calculated the number of calories that we burnt and multiplied it by the number of people working out with us. It gave a very approximate idea of total calories burnt by the group. The amount that came was donated in Rs to a non profitable charitable society. And the amount was Rs. 2,65,000/- It felt good to be part of this charitable cause. Diet Pepsi, announced the launch of its ultra cool and sleek Diet Pepsi Slim Can at an attractive price of Rs. 15/- only, a pricing never seen before for Diet Pepsi. Bringing alive Diet Pepsi’s distinct proposition of ‘Go Play’, the Slim Can was unveiled in a first ever consumer launch set up through a mass work-out session with brand ambassador ...
