Eat to Sleep!


Trouble sleeping?  Tired but can't get enough Zzz's in?
      I always tell my clients one of the missing links on the discussion of health today for longevity and anti-aging is the need necessity for absolute  SLEEP.  

The body cannot function properly without recharging which happens during a good nights sleep.

When someone looks in the mirror and they see dark circles puffy eyes don't looking skin tiredness in the eyes yellowing in the ice a sluggish digestive system.  All of those symptoms are a result of lack of sleep.

The body has an natural detoxifying process that happens when we sleep.  It is our job to guarantee the body that opportunity to detox.  When we fail the body we fail ourselves.  our health suffers, our hormones get confused and  our chances of living a anti aging lifestyle are deceased.

Eat to sleep means just that.  When we eat with a purpose it gives food power.  Food is a drug. It was put on this earth to feed us.  It is when we take it out of that content text that it becomes abused miss used and works negatively against us.

When you eat to sleep you want to make sure you are giving your body
-enough water
-potassium
-minerals
-protein plant based sources such as brown rice, hemp and sprouted legumes.

The Key to have a balanced hormonal release throughout the day. 
Green vegetables, cruciferous vegetables. Plant based protein, chia seeds and flax. water 

When you eat these foods and drink enough water throughout the day preferably before 3 PM you will be ready for bed- tired, exhausted and shutting down by 8 PM. 

You will wake up with no dark circles or puffy eyes. 

                                          Full of energy and ready to start a new day!

Skin at its Best: Series 2


Walking is an excellent and healthy way to get fit and/or lose weight.  Walking is the easiest way to lose weight as you change your eating lifestyle along with eating habits. It can be done anywhere!

Combine your walking habit with strength training workout that I gave you and you will be able to build muscle content, which burns calories at a higher rate than fat, even more ways to use energy without killing yourself or making yourself feel crazy about staying fit.  


How many steps do I need to take to lose weight?
Each mile that a person walks burns roughly 100 calories. If a person was to commit to walking and uses up 300 calories each day equals 2,100 calories a week. 

After just 1 month, that’s roughly 9,000 cal burned, which equates to approximately 2.6 pounds lost without killing yourself or your knees or any other part of your body.  Accumulating those three extra miles a day could be as simple as making small changes in the way you look at being active.  

How many miles a day do YOU need to walk to lose weight?
Remember, it’s all a simple math equation. 

Lets talk numbers:
 1 Mile = 1500 steps for average person.(  I am 5'0 so its 2,500 steps for me to reach a mile.)
 1 Mile walked = 100 calories burned
 3 Miles walked = 300 calories burned
 300 calories x 7= 2,100 a week burned

If you take in 1,200 a day x 7=8,400 calories 
If you normally take in 1,500 calories it leaves you with 2,100 deficit plus you are burning an extra 2,100 a week.
That equals 4,200 calories a week of burning up,extra energy(fat). 
1 Pound = 3500 calories 

  There is the math.  Just by walking you will lose over 1 pound of fat stored energy!!!!!  If you want to lose it faster you just walk more steps. Not kill yourself going fast. It's not about speed it's about distance.  That is what our bodies were made for. Walking distance at normal pace without injury and stress.  Just go out and walk one foot in front of the other and soon you'll be walking out the door. Just like the song says!!
