Dieting and Vitamin Losses
Did you know when you diet you are frequently sacrificing vitamins and minerals?
When you diet, you don’t just cut calories, you also reduce your intake of vitamins and minerals.
Standford University researchers evaluated the effects of different diets (Atkins, Zone, LEARN, and Ornish) of 300 overweight and obese women. The women reduced their daily caloric intake by 500 calories and all women reduced their overall vitamin and mineral intakes. Vitamin E was reduced the most – 65%.
Researchers were surprised to note that women following the Zone diet actually saw an increase in vitamin A, E, and K intake and no reduction in other nutrients.
When losing weight it’s important to not compromise your overall health. The best bet is a balanced weight loss plan you can stick with long term.
All the best,

Are you sabotaging your own weight loss efforts?
Isn’t trying to figure out how to lose weight CONFUSING?! About the time you decide to incorporate a health change a new study comes out saying that it’s not so healthy after all.

It’s time to hear the UNBIASED truth from someone who doesn’t have an agenda other than to give you the facts about what foods you REALLY should be eating to achieve a healthy weight and feel your best, and which ones shouldn’t touch your lips (despite the media hype).

Hidden Calories: Watch out!
There are some changes you may make in an attempt to be healthier than can actually be sabotaging your weight loss efforts. Let’s discuss some hidden calories that may hide in some supposedly “healthy” choices.
Bagels and Muffins
Muffins and bagels have changed drastically over the years. In the past, if you grabbed a muffin at your local coffee shop they would’ve been about the size of a tennis ball. Nowadays muffins are closer to softball size, while bagels have increased an average of 4-6 inches in diameter.
The increased size equals a dramatic calorie increase. One standard muffin or bagel can provide 400-600 calories.
If you’re in a hurry and the only option is to grab breakfast on the run, choose to eat half the muffin or bagel and save the rest for another day.
Salads
Just because it’s a salad doesn’t mean it’s the best choice on the menu.
