Tip of the Week: 8/19/08 Proper nutritional habits are just as important to your health and fitness level as physical activity. Eating more frequently throughout the day is more efficient than skipping meals for weight control. Aim for 4-5 smaller more frequent meals rather than 2 or 3. Also, aim for whole foods in their rarest form instead of processed foods. Whole foods carry the nutritional value of vitamins and minerals necessary for the body to function properly. |
