SUSHI FOR PREGNANT

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: For women who enjoy sushi, as I do, but do not want to eat raw fish during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, vegetarian sushi options provide a tasty alternative. For example, women can choose vegetable maki rolls containing avocado, cucumber and pickles, and top them with wasabi and soy sauce to taste. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and learn more about healthy nutrition, if you are a mother to be or breastfeeding.

USEFUL WEIGHT AND FAT-LOSS TOOLS

By: | Tags:

While the body does burn some calories even when a person is just sitting or sleeping, for most people, the more active they are, the more calories the body will burn. However, this can take time.
