DIETS AND HEALTHFUL EATING

By: | Tags:

Healthful eating means consuming nutrient-dense foods in the right quantities from all five main food groups as no single group can provide everything we need for good health. People often think of a diet as a specific weight-loss plan, but diet is simply the types and amounts of food we eat.

This is the main message of a new scientific statement from the American Heart Association and corresponds word by word to what we tell […]

When those 5 kg are recovered, what normally happens next, the situation is not the same because truth is that weight loss was totally recovered as fat, resulting 4 kg […]
