7 Nutrient, Dieting, Meal Portion and Fall Clearance Tips

September 29, 2007 by Lucy 



Everyone seems to want instant fitness results and right away with the minimum of work. Good health and fitness results sadly don’t work that way.

For very good results you must apply a four letter word - which is work. After all, what comes simply without work - simply nothing.

To maintain a relationship you need to work at it, like building a business you must work at it. Outstanding results, and achievement are generally proportional to the work you invest. The same applies to your health and fitness.

The good news is that with continuous small improvements, gigantic results can occur. Consistent small steps take you right up to and beyond the goals you set for yourself.

To help you in achieving your health and fitness goals, here are a few helpful online sites with masses of information that can lead you along the way.

  • Is your grocery bill sometimes enough to raise your blood pressure? Some people think that filling the grocery cart with healthy food will blow the budget at the cash register - that doesn’t have to be - find out how from the experts at Health Castle.
  • Want to find out which foods are high or low in a nutrient? See the Nutrients database and lists for a number of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, fibre, protein, fat, carbohydrate and selected antioxidants etc.
  • If you’re having a hard time controlling your meal portions, you love your food and want to eat with the rest of the family without having to weigh everything each mealtime - the diet plate could be worth looking into for you. A recent study shows that people using the diet plates were 3 times more likely to lose 5 percent of their body weight. This is a great idea educating people of what a real “healthy” portion should actually consist of.
  • When dieting, eating a moderate amount of the right type of fat is OK, as long as the total calorie count down is kept down. The best fats in relation to saturated fat percentage are listed below from best to worst below. They are all recommended fats - although Coconut oil is not recommended! 1. Canola 2. Safflower 3. Sunflower 4. Corn 5. Olive 6. Sesame 7. Soy-bean 8. Peanut

  • For a great site on nutrition visit My Pyramid. They have masses of information to search and research and you can also track your diet.

  • If you’re thinking of buying fitness equipment such as as elliptical trainer, exercise bike, treadmill or home gym - there’s a fall clearance at Bigfitness right now - could be worth your while to check out while the price is lower.
  • Cyberdiet is a great place for information on dieting, eating right, with meal planning tools, healthy recipes, on-line food log and the latest nutrition info and weight loss tips, fitness exercises and a host of other great information to help you get on track to feeling good.
