Healthy Lifestyle Report: Nutrition: Healthy Lifestyle Reports, #4

By Ron Kness

Nutrition is at the heart of losing weight and good health. In fact 80% of weight loss has to do with eating healthy with the other 20% about exercise. One common question is “Can I lose weight without exercising?”  
 
And the answer is yes, but exercising enables you to burn more calories making weight loss easier now and weight maintenance easier in the future by building muscle.  
 
Good nutrition starts with three areas: 
• What you eat 
• How much you eat 
• When you eat. 
 
Most of your food should come from sources that are low in calories such as vegetables and fresh fruits. We talk about good choices in this report.  
 
Even though you are making healthy choices, it is possible to still overeat. Portion control is an important part second leg of this three-legged stool and can be as simple as choosing a smaller plate.  
 
The last leg of course is when you eat. Eating 3 hours before bedtime is not good if you are trying to lose weight. However eating breakfast after exercising in the morning is a great way to jump start your metabolism for the day.  
 
Now that you know a little bit about nutrition, let’s delve deeper if you would like to know more. Enjoy the read!

Introduction

Nutrition is at the heart of losing weight and good health. In fact 80% of weight loss has to do with eating healthy with the other 20% about exercise. One common   question is Can I lose weight without exercising? And the answer is yes, but exercising enables you to burn more calories making weight loss easier now and weight maintenance easier in the future.

Good nutrition starts with three areas:

What you eat

How much you eat

When you eat.

Using the analogy of a three-legged stool, the first leg is about the food you eat. Most of it should come from sources that are low in calories such as vegetables and fresh fruits. We talk about good choices later on in this report.

Even though you are making healthy choices, it is possible to still overeat. Portion control is an important part second leg of this three-legged stool. The last leg of course is when you eat. Eating 3 hours before bedtime is not good if you are trying to lose weight. However eating breakfast after exercising in the morning is a great way to jump start your metabolism. And like a three legged stool if any of the legs are missing, the whole thing falls apart.

Now that you know a little bit about nutrition, let’s delve deeper. Enjoy the read!

What is Cholesterol?

You’ve heard the doctor say to watch it. You’ve heard that some foods have an abundance of it - but exactly what is cholesterol? It’s true that cholesterol is found mainly in the types of food you eat, but that’s not the only way this waxy type of matter gets into the body.

Did you know that your liver makes cholesterol? Your body must have this substance in order to work properly and keep you in good health. When there’s an overabundance of cholesterol, that’s when health problems start building up.

Like too much of anything, a buildup can damage the internal organs (the heart, liver, etc.). When you get too much cholesterol in your body, it can cause trouble for your arteries.
