EGGS AND CHOLESTEROL

By: | Tags:

Eggs do not have, in general, a good reputation on account of its richness in cholesterol. But we should not so fast denigrate this food that Mother Nature has endowed with many other nutritional qualities.

5 HABITS FOR LIFE

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: People often compare their weight and shape with those around them, concerned about their weight being too high or too low, but a healthy weight is not the same for each individual.

FOOD ALLERGY OR INTOLERANCE

By: | Tags:

A food allergy is different from food intolerance. A food allergy involves an immune system response, while food intolerance does not.

Food allergy is not related to that deficiency, being as a rule a genetic issue. Food allergy symptoms appear soon after eating the food, while food intolerance symptoms appear later. The Clínica do Tempo® Orthomolecular Check-Up comprises the […]

Returning from holidays is usually accompanied by good resolutions. Gladly going back to work and to sports practice, finding a creative activity, getting fit and being in-shape again. All these are wise decisions, but be careful not to demand too much, that will cause on you a too much pressure to cope with on a daily basis.
