CONTROLLING FOOD PORTION SIZES

By: | Tags:

Obesity is a growing epidemic, as more people than ever are struggling to control their weight. Increased portion sizes contribute to overeating and unwanted weight and fatness gain. People tend to eat almost all of what they serve themselves. Therefore, controlling portion sizes help prevent overindulging. Simply using smaller dishes or glasses can lower the amount of food or drink you consume, and feel just as satisfied. If it’s too late, call now our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and have a non-invasive “liposuction” for weight control and fat excess […]

COMFORT FOOD

By: | Tags:

What’s special about comfort food, besides its name, is that it comforts and enhances a person’s wellness. When you’re feeling cold or blue on those chilly fall and winter evenings, curling up with a warm bowl of soup, savoury root veggies, or a creamy casserole seems like the perfect cure. Put away traditional comfort foods, like mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese, they are true calorie bombs that easily make you packing on the pounds and storing body fat. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00, and […]

YO-YO DIETING AFFECT YOUR HEALTH

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: As we roll into 2024, many people will be trying out new diet regimes. For many, sticking to a nut-filled, burger-free, fish-heavy Mediterranean-style diet will only last a matter of days before returning to the realms of cheesecake and cheese boards. Sticking to a strict diet can be challenging, so eating patterns will fluctuate wildly. Unless you get professional help and benefit from Clínica do Tempo Nutritional, Psychological and Motivational permanent Support Line. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 […]

Sweet potatoes can be prepared in a number of ways — from mashed and fried to steamed and baked. But did you know that they’re nutrient dense and offer a number of health benefits? If you’re trying to find healthier starchy options for your lunch or dinner, consider adding sweet potatoes to your recipe repertoire.

FISH ARE NOT ONLY NUTRITIOUS BUT TASTY

By: | Tags:

Fish is a healthy, high-protein food that has a rightful place in a well-balanced diet. Fish is especially important for its omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential “good” fats that humans don’t produce on their own. There are minor risks associated with eating fish, however. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a health condition, check with your nutritionist before incorporating fish that contains mercury. For everyone else, the benefits of fish consumption outweigh all risks. Schedule now your Nutrition Consultation calling our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and get […]

FOOD-ALLERGY, HIPERSENSIBILITY OR INTOLERANCE

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: Dairy isn’t easily categorized as healthy or unhealthy because its effects may vary greatly between individuals. If you tolerate dairy products and enjoy them, you should feel comfortable eating dairy. There is no compelling evidence that people should avoid it — and plenty of evidence of benefits. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00.
