Too many fast releasing carbohydrates lead to weight gain.
Traditionally we were taught that carbs should provide our body with its primary supply of energy. However, many eople have confused fast releasing carbohydrates (pasta, cakes) and slow releasing carbohydrates (whole grains, vegetables) eating too many of the former-the tempting, convenient, tasty variety! Most of us lead sedentary lives, so any excess energy from carbohydrate-rich food) is stored as fat. Cereals and toast for breakfast, jacket potato for lunch, pasta for dinner and rice cakes and biscuits for snacks?!

Remember to:
1. Eat regular meals spaced throughout the day
2. Choose slow releasing carbohydrates foods
3. Increase your intake of live foods (fresh fruit and vegetables)
4. Identify your body’s protein needs and consume  the amount you need.

TAKE PROTEIN WITH EVERY MEAL

If you tried to get all the protein you need from foods such as meats, you would consume too many calories, because these protein rich foods come with extra fat calories. Protein-enriched meal replacement shakes, Protein Supplement Powder and High Protein Low Carbohydrate snack
products, contain protein sources which are easily absorbed and assimilated, and which allow you to reach your body’s protein requirements without those unwanted calories. Easy and convenient to follow the programme, so will fit into a busy lifestyle.
