ASK YOURSELF, “AM I HUNGRY?”

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY of our nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: Pause for a moment and consider the answer to this question. If you’re truly hungry, eat! Your goal is to stop eating when you aren’t hungry.

SAINT ANTHONY’S BREAD

By: | Tags:

Whilom fruits were less sweet than nowadays, containing less fructose. Modern fruits are selected and cultivated in a way to get more and more sweet, to please the consumer’s taste.

FOCUS ON YOUR MEAL

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY of our nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: As you eat, avoid using your phone or computer, don’t read books or magazines, and keep the TV off. Whether it’s working through lunch at a desk or noshing on chips while watching Netflix, distracted eating is common. But while it might seem harmless, it may encourage you to overeat. A review of 24 studies found that distractions led people to consume more calories during a meal. It also caused them to eat more food later in the day. Call our International […]

PROCESSED AND ULTRA-PROCESSED DIETS

By: | Tags:

Not all processed foods are bad. Some minimally processed foods can be helpful for busy people. Any time we cook food, we’re processing food.
