One topic that seems to be a never-ending source of confusion is blood, or more precisely, understanding blood work and which tests to get and why. It never fails to amaze me that the vast majority of bodybuilders and other athletes have no issue spending literally thousands of dollars on supplements (some of which have virtually no science behind them to justify their use) and gym memberships each year, but won’t spend a penny on blood tests to see what’s really going on with their hormones and other indicators of health (e.g., cholesterol, liver function, etc.).

Sure will.
You see, when you have a plan that you stick to your body will be sure to make progress. If you haphazardly eat whatever you want your weight loss will haphazardly go up and down.
As registered dietitians with over ten years of experience helping people shed unwanted fat, We’ve NEVER seen any approach work better.
And the best part is, you won’t believe just how much food you get to eat!
In fact, most of our clients are in complete shock when they see how much food they get to eat yet still lose weight.
Starving yourself isn’t the answer. Your body is literally CRAVING certain kinds of nutrients so it can lose those love handles.
Most people don’t realize the fact they were eating so few calories on many days was actually causing them to GAIN weight.
Yes, you really can eat more food and weigh LESS.
You need a plan though to make these goals a reality

Q: Recently I have been hearing a lot in the media about inflammation. Is there something I can do or take to help reduce inflammation in my body?
A: That’s a great question and it is good that you are hearing more about it! Inflammation is often called the “silent killer”. But remember that there are different types of inflammation. Acute inflammation is necessary for life. For example, when you cut your finger, an inflammatory process is necessary to heal that wound. That is acute inflammation and is good. Chronic inflammation, however, is dangerous and is the underlying issue for many diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and more. You can see why it is important to reduce chronic inflammation; particularly since many of these diseases typically begin to present as we age!

Various aspects of food and health are in the media all the time, but there is quite a bit of technical jargon which can be confusing. Most people will have heard of omega-3 fatty acids and have some idea that they are good for us. But what do they actually refer to and are they really good for us?
