SWEET? ONLY IF IT’S POTATO!

By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: I don’t always eat starch, but when I do… my favourite is without a doubt the sweet potato. Sweet potatoes are very nutritious and rich in some key nutrients like Vitamin A, Vitamin C and potassium. They are also relatively rich in fiber, a 100 gram serving supplying about 3 grams. If you want to eat carbs, then you should definitely stick to healthier ones like sweet potatoes. Ask one of the nutritionists at Clínica do Tempo®.

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

By: | Tags:

The digestive system enables your body to convert food into usable nutrients, through a system of organs, including the esophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, and intestines. As digestion continues, the food is propelled from organ to organ through muscular contractions.

One of the first steps for a correct nutrition is the first meal of the day. It should be the best of all and, just like the others, it must be calmly prepared and taken seated. To eat while standing up, stressed and in a hurry, besides preventing the food to be properly digested and assimilated, it makes us eat more than we need because we ingest food faster than the time our brain takes to transmit the satiety message. Get used to put your breakfast on the table: fruit […]
