7 Foods to Stop Worrying About
Fad diets often knock foods for being too fatty, too sugary, or having too many carbs. But the claim that ditching a single food will make your nutrition plan more effective is usually overblown. Case in point: The seven foods here. Each one has been the victim of bad press, but consumed in small portions, these foods can actually improve your health. So go ahead, reintroduce these foods into your diet with the tips that follow.
# Red Meat:
The Rep: High levels of red meat consumption have been linked to heart disease, atherosclerosis and colon cancer.
The Reality: Lean red meat is high in vitamin B, creatine and iron, and grass-fed beef has high levels of beta carotene, vitamin E and Omega-3 fatty acids. So eating a bit of red meat here or there can have benefits, just don’t overdo it.
Tip: Select lean cuts of meat, and choose grass-fed beef products.
# Potatoes:
The Rep: Potatoes are often shunned because of their carb content and their form (mashed or French fried).
The Reality: If you ditch the fatty toppings and eat a traditional baked potato, it isn’t too bad. A medium baked potato only contains 161 calories, 37 grams of carbs and 5 grams of fiber. Add them to your meal once a week. Need a topping? Try salsa or cottage cheese.
Tip: Eat the skin—it’s full of fiber.
Nutritional Plan
Firstly, let me explain after researching a lot of information via various sources, I feel I can now deliver the very best nutritional advice and develop a nutrition plan that suits you and your target.
My research is backed by the very latest scientific research and my references will be from the very best medical practitioners, dieticians and sport scientists.
My belief in nutrition as you know is paramount and I believe it’s the cornerstone of optimal health and function for the life you wish to lead.
Your plan will encourage a target daily calorific amount, it will breakdown specifically the ratio of carbs, fats and proteins for your desired goal. It will also promote RDAs for the vital vitamins and minerals your body needs. I will promote natural supplementation to further enhance your goal.
I believe there is a direct link between hormone imbalances and fat storage in specific areas. My first reference point is from the diet ’The Perfect 10’ from the author Dr Michael Aziz.
This suggests a new way of thinking with regards to food intake and optimal health, we need to neutralize various hormones, to ensure we can utilize our energy sufficiently and keep our body performing optimally.
I will write an article and post on my website Andywilsonfitness.com to discuss in more depth, the role of hormones and weight issues.
I also believe in natural supplementation, I believe this cannot replace a balanced diet, and is definitely not the ’be all and end all’ in terms of getting you to your desired goal, but these supplements are backed by science and will definitely aid your goal.
My first food plan for you will be for 5 -7 days only and will encourage a base level approach to nutrition. It is not a traditional detox but does have a ’cleansing out’ target, to rid your body of toxicity, at this phase calorie targets are not in place as my aim initially is eliminate artificial, processed foods and replace with foods that are natural and nutrient dense.
Then we get more specific, we look at personal goals, lifestyle and personal preferences or barriers to certain food groups or products.
This will take a lot of discipline and I want regular feedback and analysis on how effective it is for optimal health, well being and of course is it achieving a result.
I want a 100% commitment and I know there will be occasions you cannot commit to the correct nutrition but there cannot be any excuses, if we are to achieve our goals then we must sacrifice certain food and drink choices, over the long haul you will have more confidence and have a much more healthier lifestyle to lead, you will feel a hundred times better .
I will also oversee the fitness aspect with new improved fitness testing procedures, fact gathering and imminently a fit file which will be accessed via my website. This may sound very regimented but in fact this is what I owe all of my clients, some outstanding results, fresh targets and a fresh outlook.
Hydration
Most people do not drink enough water each day. This leads to fatigue and lack of concentration. How much water you need depends on your shape and weight. Contact me for a one-to-one analysis.
