would like to chat with you that are reading me, about nutrition and physical activity, do you fancy?

Did you know that a gram of alcohol, with no nutritious value, contributes with 7 calories comparatively with the 4 grams that carbohydrates and proteins contribute? It is almost twice, isn’t it?

The 70% from our diary calorific consumption is used to support your organism in a stable way of health and with their normal functions, a 70% that don’t make you put on or loose weight. Think about it

There are people that replaces complete meals with and vitamin and mineral complex, these foods, a key part in our diet, have the special feature of being present in a numerous foods and, oddly, not contributing any calories to the person. This would not be important unless over the 70% from our diary calorific consumption is used to SUPPORT YOUR ORGANISM IN A ESTABLE WAY OF HEALTH AND WITH THEIR NORMAL FUNCTIONS, a 70% that don’t make you put on or loose weight. Think about it.

It is strange, but the most of the foods are made of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, except for the most calorific ones, i.e. the oils. I have heard about a dissociated diet that separates the foods to loose weight. What about you? Could it be a fake? Let’s see, bread has in each 100 grams, 52 grams of carbohydrates, 8 grams of proteins and almost 2 grams of fats. Milk, 3 grams of proteins, about 3 grams of fat and 5 grams of carbohydrates. A veal steak, 25 grams of fat, 15 grams of proteins and almost 2 grams of Carbohydrates. Chickpeas, 20 grams of proteins, almost 4 grams of fat and over 60 grams of carbohydrates. Do you want me to continue? If you can’t count them properly, the grams left in each food are what they contain in water, and how you know, it does not contribute with calories to the organism, so it is not very fattering at all, is it?

Diete and exercise . Myth and reality .

Now it’s time to talk about exercise, what do you think of it? Doing exercise in a moderate way during 30 minutes consumes 200 calories in a person of 80 kilos, where the 60% of them comes from fats. Doing exercise in an intense way during 30 minutes consumes about 450 calories, where the 40% comes from fats. Where is the secret? Quite easy! First: the total calorific cost is the important point, and the intense exercise wins the match. Second: the 40% of 450 is 180 calories, and the 60% of 200 is 120 calories, There is no more to say! So, ¿How they sell as an “burning fat” exercise the rhythm of training?

Well, its time to finish, and I have more to tell you but take note of this date, unless you do an specific muscular work to thwart it with every decade of life since you are 25 you loose almost a 5% of muscular mass, an active tissue in a metabolic way and a big consumer of calories while it is resting, so it means that a person of 65 years old would have loose around 7 kilograms of valuable muscle, so the basal metabolic cost is reduced to 35%
