RED WINE VINEGAR

By: | Tags:

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. The acetic acid in red wine vinegar may support weight loss. Acetic acid has been shown to reduce fat storage, increase fat burning, and reduce appetite. 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 […]

VEGANISM AND VEGETARIANISM

By: | Tags:

Both vegetarian and vegan diets may provide health benefits, including reduced body weight, decrease cholesterol levels and the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, it is important to ensure that all essential nutrients are ingested. For example, plants do not contain vitamin B-12, so vegans and vegetarians need to consume fortified foods or take dietary supplements to make up for this lack. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00. There’s nothing like a complete and balanced healthful diet to control your weight and body fat, eating what you […]

SALMON SKIN

EVEN “HEALTHY OBESITY” MUST BE TREATED

By: | Tags:

Some people with obesity are free of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and several types of cancer which often accompany this condition, despite their high body mass index (BMI). It is known as “metabolically healthy obesity” but a new study suggests that the “healthy” attribute should be taken with a considerably large pinch of salt. It was confirmed that “metabolically healthy obesity” is not a harmless condition, and even people who remain free of metabolic diseases for decades face an increased risk of cardiovascular events. People with a normal […]

CHOLESTEROL IS BOTH GOOD AND BAD

By: | Tags:

At normal levels, cholesterol is an essential substance (waxy and fat-like appearance) for the body. However, if concentrations in the blood get too high, it becomes a silent danger that puts people at risk of heart attack. Cholesterol is present in every cell of the body and has important natural functions when it comes to digesting foods, producing hormones, and generating vitamin D. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and schedule your Nutritional Consultation and Body Analysis Composition to understand and control your Body Mass Index (BMI).
