Overall Diet Changes Lead to Healthier Lives

There have been a lot of recent articles in the news about putting more emphasis on your diet than exercise in order to lose weight or maintain your weight.  As someone who is not so fond of exercise, this is great news.  Now, this doesn’t mean you should try every new diet craze out there or that you should be “dieting” all the time.  It means making overall diet changes that will positively impact your lifestyle. This year let’s plan to focus our energy on lifestyle diet changes and overall health rather than how many miles we can run a day.  The latter will come in time once your body is properly fueled for the journey.

Here’s a great letter we received from a long time customer about her experience with the Atkins diet:

Well, like everyone else, I started my diet – again! You can’t blame a girl for trying. But, I’m following the Atkins diet and so far, so good. I lost 6 lbs. to date and feeling better than ever. I was a real monster during the induction phase, nearly tackling my 10 year old for the pretzels she was eating. Now, I don’t even crave any carbs and I don’t get as hungry. How come it took me 42 years to realize all I needed to do was reduce my carbs and I would feel better, look better and I have more energy? I guess you can teach an ‘old dog’ new tricks.

But, because you consume a lot of saturated fats on a low carb diet, it’s critical that you supplement your diet with essential fatty acids – the ‘good fats’ or Omega 3s. Omega 3 fats decrease inflammation and water retention which is a large part of weight loss that in turn speeds up the removal of water retention in the body. Omega 3 fats also help increase energy production so you can keep up with your New Year’s exercise commitment as well!

I like taking Deep Blue Omega purified marine fish oil. This is the best Omega 3 supplement I found because you can get 2000 mgs of EPA & DHA in just 2 gel capsules per day. These are 2 fatty acids that are responsible for reducing high blood pressure, reduces your risk for heart attack, helps with cardiac arrhythmia and irregular heart beats. Plus, as a natural anti-inflammatory, I feel less aches & pains after my runs. Did I mention I’m also training for a half-marathon?

-Wendy

Let’s make 2009 the year we look back on say, “this is the year I changed my diet and it changed my life.”
