DIET CULTURE

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: For many women, dieting has been part of their lives for pretty much as long as they can remember (this also applies to men!).

ORANGE JUICE IS THE BEST OF FRUIT

By: | Tags:

Skipping breakfast may be better than eating unhealthy foods first thing in the morning. A nutritious, well-balanced breakfast containing fruit, gives you energy and prevents you from eating too much during the rest of the day. Fruit is very filling due to its high fibre and water contents. All types of fruit contain vitamins, potassium, fibre and are relatively low in calories. Citrus fruits are very high in vitamin C, one large orange providing more than 100% of the recommended daily intake.

OBESITY. MEDICATION, SURGERY, NOT ALWAYS NEEDED.

By: | Tags:

Obesity can happen for a number of reasons, including diet, a sedentary lifestyle, genetic factors, a health condition, or the use of certain medications. Some treatments, exercise and dietary changes are useful weight-loss tools, but for some people these are not effective or fast enough. Medication or surgery is not the only option.

PIZZA CAN BE HEALTHY

By: | Tags:

Pizzaiolo is the name for the professional who cooks the real Neapolitan pizza that, strange as it may seem, can protect against certain types of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. However, pizza is not the real responsible for this protection, but rather a food rich in tomatoes, which contain lycopene, a powerful antioxidant, legumes and green leaves’ vegetables and extra virgin olive oil. Most pizzas have lots of fats, sausages, chorizo and salami, and a very thick dough, these are really harmful to health. Call now our International Call Center (+351) […]

SEDENTARY LIFESTYLE MAKES YOU FAT

By: | Tags:

Many people lead a much more sedentary lifestyle than their parents and grandparents did. Examples of sedentary habits include working in an office rather than doing manual labor, playing games on a computer instead of doing physical activities outside, going to places by car instead of walking or cycling, and more. The less a person moves around, the fewer calories they burn, the more they are likely to weight gain and store fat.
