By: | Tags:

TIP OF THE DAY from our Nutritionist Dr. Tomás Barbosa: “It is a shameful thing, ” wrote Socares, one of the wisest of the ancient Greeks, “to grow old in neglect without having realised to the utmost such strength and beauty as your body is capable of.

GLUTEN IS NOT BAD BY ITSELF

By: | Tags:

The problem is that it is present in less healthy food, such as pizzas and hamburgers. Gluten intolerance can cause considerable discomfort and people should use lifestyle changes to try and manage its symptoms.

By: | Tags:

Skin is an organ reacting to a number of stimuli. In fact, skin is attacked by weather conditions (cold, wind, sun, etc.), pollution, bacteria, fungus and insects. Internally, it is closely linked to underlying tissues, and it is in contact with the lymphatic system, the circulatory system, the nervous system and the endocrine glands. Skin is not always capable, by its own, to restore the correct hydro-nutritive balance, as it is exposed to a large number of endogenous and exogenous stress mechanisms, and the consequences may be: dry skin; dehydrated […]
