To help you achieve greater results out of the hard work done in the gym, review your eating habits! Remember you are what you eat!
Even then, some people fail to see results if they're eating well and training hard because they have digestion issues. These can be due to preservatives, artificial ingredient and other chemical additives that are not meant to be in our body.
Time and time again, I come across clients with complaints of feeling uncomfortable and it's important not to ignore these signs. These symptoms, such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, belching, food sensitivities, indigestion etc. can be signs that your gastrointestinal heath may need some attention!
If you know you're struggling with you eating and not sure what you maybe allergic to, try seeing a nutritionist to help you along your way!
A few more key points to help you through:
1. Eat lots of green vegetable but leave out the other colorful fresh natural vegetables as well. Legumes and fruits are also good options.
2. Reduce excess sugar and salt where possible.
3. Don't microwave your food as it destroys good nutrients.
4. Take supplements when you need i.e. having a 'greens' drink once a day such as vital greens, or barley grass or spiralina will help alkaline the body and provide extra or missing antioxidants.
5. Ensure you have enough (lean) protein in your diet for muscle recover and repair.
6. Eating six to seven quality meals a day will help keep your body 'burning' all day.
7. Shakes are good, but try not to rely on them all the time.
8. Eat breakfast, helps with energy level, concentration and prevents quick/random hunger calls.
9. Drink plenty of water!
