Nutritional Tip Berardi’s Law

Author: admin 22.02.09

Berardi’s Law
by Dr. John Berardi
If a food is in your possession or located in your residence, you’ll eventually eat it. If you wish to be healthy and lean, you must remove all foods not conducive to those goals from said residence and replace them with a variety of better, healthier choices. If you know someone whose house is stocked only with optimal food choices and yet who is not healthy and lean, look under his bed.

Hooray For Eggs

Author: admin 11.02.09

At last we have the science and the media to confirm what I have been saying for years!

Limiting egg consumption has little effect on cholesterol levels, research has confirmed.

This has been an accepted fact for many years by top nutritionists and fitness professionals, but the bad publicity that eggs have received has meant an uphill struggle for us to convince people that eggs are actually an essential part of our diet and should NOT be limited.

I eat at least 3 eggs a DAY!

My cholesterol levels are just fine, because the rest of my nutritional habits are sound.

If you are eating large amounts of saturated fats then high cholesterol levels may very well be an issue for you, but it has nothing to do with the humble egg, which is…

‘packed with nutrients’

Eggs contain many vitamins. In particular, they are source of various B vitamins and are especially rich in vitamin B2 riboflavin, and vitamin B12.  Eggs are also a rich source of vitamin D and they also contain vitamin A.

Eggs contain many essential minerals and trace elements, including phosphorus, iodine and selenium and iron and zinc are present in smaller amounts.

Friday 13th Seminar

Author: admin 11.02.09

Make a mark in your schedule for this Friday evening.

Yes it is Friday 13th, but I am urging you to head out to Top Squash in Sandweiler to join us for an evening of light discussion and insight from three of Luxembourg’s leading health and fitness professionals.

The event starts at 7pm and will feature three short but powerful  talks.

Plus you’ll get the opportunity to pick the brains of the most successful fat loss team in Luxembourg before and after the event.

You see… January is now over, so no need to feel guilty about not stepping foot in the gym. We have filled about 50% of the places and I am expecting a flood of new sign ups in the next few days.

I need you to go to http://www.getfit.lu/friday13.html and register your interest in the event, and i’ll send you final details in the next 48 hours.

I look forward to meeting you in person on Friday

Nutritional Tip The Critical Meal

Author: admin 08.02.09

The Critical Meal
by Dr. John Berardi
Breakfast is a critical meal. After a catabolic overnight fast, a balanced breakfast helps to regulate blood sugar, helps to regulate energy balance, and helps to control late-day cravings that lead to overfeeding. Be sure to include a serving or two of lean protein like an egg white omelet (throw in a yolk or two), some cheese, some dairy like plain yogurt or cottage cheese, some lean turkey bacon or sausage, or even a protein shake on the side. Men should be shooting for 30-50 grams of protein and women should be shooting for 20-40 grams of protein in this meal.
