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 […]

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).

EATING SLOW PREVENTS GAINING WEIGHT

By: | Tags:

Never rush your meals. If the meal you’ve chosen is breakfast, adjust your alarm to give yourself more than enough time to prepare and enjoy it. Before you begin your meal, take a few deep breaths to center yourself. Pause for a moment between each bite. As you eat, continue to be aware of your breathing as you become full. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and start off your Alimentary and Behavioural Program.

SAINT ANTHONY’S BREAD

By: | Tags:

St. Anthony was so moved by poverty that he once distributed to the poor all the bread of the convent in which he lived. Bread can be part of a healthful diet, if we know how to choose it. Give preference to bread made of less refined flours, dark or whole bread, watch for the fibres and say yes to the seeds! What makes you fat is not bread, but butter, the delicatessen, the cheeses, the jams that we apply on bread, and when we eat it with other starchy […]

Did you know…

By: | Tags:

Whilom fruits were less sweet than nowadays, containing less fructose. Modern fruits are selected and cultivated in a way to get more and more sweet, to please the consumer’s taste. Pure fructose is around 70% sweeter than sugar, but it has a lower glycemic index, since this index is influenced by glucose and not by fructose. Call our International Call Center (+351) 21 458 85 00 and mention this text to have special access conditions.

FOCUS ON YOUR MEAL

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY of our nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: As you eat, avoid using your phone or computer, don’t read books or magazines, and keep the TV off. Whether it’s working through lunch at a desk or noshing on chips while watching Netflix, distracted eating is common. But while it might seem harmless, it may encourage you to overeat. A review of 24 studies found that distractions led people to consume more calories during a meal. It also caused them to eat more food later in the day. Call our International […]
