WAIST/HIPS RATIO

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: Fat is not equally distributed in the body, for men fat deposits more on the abdomen, for women more on the hips.

That is why men have a bigger risk proportion than women. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and make an appointment for your Permanent Epilation Evaluation.

TIP OF THE DAY of our nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: Made by fermenting red wine, then straining it, it’s often aged before bottling to reduce the intensity of the flavour. Many people enjoy using red wine vinegar in recipes.

What’s more, it keeps food in your stomach longer. This delays the release of ghrelin, a hunger hormone, which may prevent overeating. Call our International Call […]
