We hope everyone had a wonderful Wednesday, filled with clean eating and physical activity. Quite often we file one liners and facts that we hear...we would like to share some of them...
1. Protein at breakfast is more important than at lunch or dinner. You're less likely to overeat the rest of the day.
2. Eating eggs for breakfast can significantly reduce your calorie intake for the rest of the day.
3. 51% of children's food products have fruit on the box but NO fruit inside.
4. Cereals with cartoons on the front of the box are mostly filled with cheap carbs. Avoid the empty and expensive calories.
5. Granola is the best actor in the world. It has convinced us for years that it is healthy. A cup is 400+ calories of mostly sugar and fat!
6. Words like "juice drink" and "juice cocktail" are industry euphemisms for a huge dose of sugar water.
7. While we we spend more on food labeled "natural", it usually means nothing. Remember tornadoes are natural too...
8. Eating 6 ounces of fat-free yogurt daily boosts your weight loss by 81%.
9. Diabetes: Your risk rises 94% if you don't get enough magnesium. Solution: spinach, tofu, beans, turkey, almonds.
10. For every pound you lose, you alleviate pressure on your knees by 4 lbs.
We hope some of these simple tidbits make you think...feel free to share your thoughts!
