Living Is Food and Eating. If you are anything like me, food is not just a combination of nutrients you ingest to keep you healthy. It is about socializing, experimenting with new tastes, being comforted, and much, much more. My family laughs about how we can’t finish one meal without discussing what will be part of the next one.
In a world where food is a part of everything we do, we can’t expect ourselves not to associate our lives with food and eating. Everywhere you turn you see, hear, smell, touch or taste it. The very thought of putting restrictions on eating is sure to bring out negative thoughts and feelings.
Well, here’s the good news…
Now, you really can eat your way to success, literally.
With my LIFE diet, you can achieve your nutrition goals and target weight by eating. And as research has proven, healthy weights are associated with success in all aspects of life (financial, personal, etc.).
Here’s what we know about weight loss:
Nearly ½ of Canadian adults were overweight in 2004, and this number has been increasing in pandemic amounts… You are not alone!
Weight loss has been shown to lead to improved insurance ratings, employment or promotions, and more enjoyable personal relationships
Weight loss achieved and maintained so that you are within a normal healthy weight range, has been shown to significantly reduce your health risks for:
- Strokes
- Heart Disease
- Hypertension
- Certain types of Cancers
- Diabetes
- Gall bladder disease
- Osteoarthritis
- Low-level systemic inflammation exists in people who are overweight
- This impairs insulin signal transduction and causes problems with glycemic control
- This also confirms a link between weight, metabolism, and immunity (your health!)
- Weight loss is proven to be closely linked to psychology as well as physiological make-up – therefore
treatment needs to be supported with the most suited health care provider: a Registered Dietitian (RD)
