Bugs Bunny's nutrition secrets!

We 've all seen and loved Bugs bunny's adventures! It's our favorite rabbit! And don't be scared.. I won't tell you how to cook Bugs.. I'm gonna tell you about his favorite delicacy! Let's talk about carrots! First of all, we all love their color, so cute!
But their nutrition facts are those who are going to save our life!
Carrots are rich in vitamins, carotenes, poly-acetylene anti-oxidant falcarinol (which fights cancer). But lets focus on the vitamin thing for a moment and make a list! So we have: Vitamin C which helps your teeth, tissue and gum. Many B comlex group and vitamin B-6. I don't want you to get bored.. so the fact is that carrot is a pretty good vegetable to have in your daily diet and provides only 41 calories per 100g (cholesterol free!)
 Except from the vitamins, carrot also contains minerals like calsium, potassium, phosphorus that helps controlling your heart rate and blood pressure.
To sum up, I think that Bug Bunny is a really really smart rabbit! He eats carrots, he exercises daily, he is happy and he is planning on staying with us for ever! Let's follow his example! Have a great day people!!

Sports Nutrition Pyramid.

The Nutrition Pyramid is the most popular image for the nutritionists! We even use it as a wallpaper to our computer! Although many scientists wanted to be even more specific in situations like athletes. If you like sports this pyramid will be really useful for you!


So have fun with the colours and take a look if you like! Haha! Don't forget the water! It's the basic principal for a healthy organism! Take care and have fun with sports, gives you energy!

Funny friends/clients and their questions!

When people meet us as professionals or as friends, they ask us questions. First thing is what we eat! Pretty funny actually because we eat anything but healthy food! I 've told you before that we aren't normal people! Haha! So we LIE to you! We tell you that we eat plenty of fruits and vegetables! I bet that the most of us eat poor quality of food! But we are gonna pay the price in about.. let's say twenty years. Don't make the same mistake! Educate your kids! As a grown up you have already developed an eating attitude and it's more difficult for you to change it for health reasons. So if you 've been trained by your folks it would have been easier for you to adjust your eating behavior!
Another question is about our weight! Why people want to know our weight! I will never understand that! Yes, we are thin (in majority) so what? Your goal is to stay healthy, strong and the last thing to worry about is the way you look! Of course the way you look is very important nowadays but staying healthy with a good quality of life must be your priority!
So next time you meet a nutritionist ask him many many things! We love answering your questions! But not personal ones! An advice for your snak or for fast ways to make your dinner are always welcomed!
Be safe! And remember you can ask me anything you want (even for my weight!Haha!)! Just leave a comment below!

Vitamins!

We need vitamins for our body and mind to work! We need vitamins so that our hair and nails be healthy and strong! We need vitamins so that our lives get better! So this is a link where you can find the dosage, function and natural sources without taking any supplements (unless you have a health issue).

Nutritionists aren't perfect.

Most of us are really weird human beings! Many times we suffer from eating disorders. It's funny that the person that you hire to save you from an eating disorder to be a patient to the same disease! But its really really common. We are people that in our lives have to eat healthy. We have to be thin so that you can trust us and we have to look healthy so that you can be convinced that we 'll give you the right variety of food.
So the responsibility is stressful. We fall into the trap of our own prohibitions! We eat nothing or we eat a lot! Either way the result is the same.. everybody, we must love ourselves and our body. No matter how much we weigh, how beautiful we really are. Love your self and then you will receive all the love from the people around you. Trust me on that! Don't miss the point here! We have to stay healthy for us and the people we love. Not to have other's approval. Enjoy your day!
