BODY COMPOSITION EVALUATION

By: | Tags:

There are two forms of fat tissue. ESSENTIAL FAT (approx. 4% for men and 10% for women) serves as shock absorber and protective shield for vital organs of the body such as the heart, liver, kidneys, brain and spinal cord. During the slimming programme this fat is only slightly reduced. SUBCUTANEOUS FAT acts as an insulator to protect the body against excessive heat loss.

BODY MASS INDEX (BMI)

By: | Tags:

A BMI is considered NORMAL between 20 and 25. BMI is calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. In the absence of a direct measure of body fat, it is an index based on weight and height. This indicator is not the most relevant because weight only determines if we are heavy. It’s the percent of body fat that determines whether we are fat or not. The Food Reeducation and Behavioural Program and Body Modelling by Clínica do Tempo®, enables an individualisation of the alimentary regime and […]

Metabolism is the word used to describe all processes that use or release energy in the human body. The minimum amount of energy needed for an individual to stay alive is known as basal metabolism. For each individual there is a minimum amount of energy required to sustain the body’s vital functions in the waking state.

IS THERE AN AVERAGE WEIGHT FOR MEN?

By: | Tags:

The average weight for men varies according to country, race, and age. But an average weight is not necessarily the same as a healthy weight. A person’s ideal weight depends on several factors, including their height and build. Maintaining a good weight is important for health and can reduce the risk of developing serious conditions. Being overweight or obese puts a person at greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, gallbladder disease, osteoarthritis, some types of cancer, breathing problems, such as sleep apnea, […]

CARNAVAL DATING DOES NOT REACH CHRISTMAS

By: | Tags:

There are proverbs, adages, maxims and aphorisms that are nothing but catchwords, and this is one of those, unless we’re talking about a simple dalliance, a flirt, an adventure or a caprice. But when it gets to passion that does not fade, the romance may well last a lifetime, as long as we know how to take care of ourselves, next to our daily company, to always be a more loving person, prettier, healthier and happier. And with this in mind, we will be able to transmit to our children […]
