Nutrition advice

Cleaning up your diet will increase the effects of fat loss and give you more vitality. Learn how to eat smart with fiber, fat, carbs and protein in your diet.

Great sources of fiber come from melons, oat bran, psyllium, wheat.

Eat fat, like olive oil, flaxseed oil, corn oil, soybean oil, salmon, tuna, cod, walnuts, peanuts, almonds.

Quality protein is important. There are nine essential amino acids that we must get from food. Quality sources are usually in the form of animal tissue such as beef, fish, chicken, and eggs. However, you can get all nine amino acids from e. g. mixing beans and corn. Tofu and enriched soy can also yield quality protein.

Don’t forget to allow yourself room to cheat. You can have a cheat meal once every 3-5 days.
