7 Simple Changes for a Powerful Anti-Inflammatory Diet
Inflammation is a buzzword we hear a lot these days, but what does it really mean for our health? Simply put, inflammation is your body’s natural response to injury or infection. It’s like an internal alarm system that signals your immune system to kick into gear, fighting off harmful invaders and beginning the healing process.
Immune Health
Immune health is directly related to your gut health! Guess what, seventy percent of your immune cells are connected to your digestive track!
Natural vs. Processed Sugar
Whole food carbohydrates have a natural source of sugar, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibers that DO NOT process the same way as your boxed and bagged “bad” carbohydrates do. These sources are known to have all sorts of added sugar in them, which we should avoid! Good naturally occuring sugars digest more slowly and offer a steady supply of energy to your cells.
Life Style + Supplements
In general, a healthy lifestyle is the single best step you can take toward naturally keeping your immune system strong and healthy. Every system in your body, including the immune system, functions better when following balanced and healthy lifestyle. Supplements are best added as a support. These are some supplements I recommend for added immune benefit.
Tracking Macros vs. Calories
TRACKING MACROS is more effective in changing your body composition. By tracking macros, fat and muscle can be reshaped. Understanding how food fuels your body and why the right kind of foods are important, you can confidently make the choices necessary to reach your goals.
Why Strength Train
Building and maintaining muscle mass is the best way to keep fat in a healthy range. When lean muscle mass is present in the body it is more demanding of calories than fat, meaning it requires more energy to maintain lean muscle tissue than it does to maintain fat. As muscle mass is built, your metabolic rate increases. When your metabolic rate increases your caloric, expenditure becomes higher.
