Lose weight and Build lean muscle with a diet of high quality fat and protien

For a number of years I have for ‘inflammation, joint health and weight loss / maintenance reasons’ been living both a Paleo and metabolic eating lifestyle

So impressed am I with both systems and the health benefits they have given to me that I have gained professional qualifications in both systems.

And over the coming weeks I will be discussing more the benefits and the services that I will have available

However in the mean time I would like to share a portion of an email I received from Mark Sisson of Primal Blue print www.primalblueprint.com a leading expert and author on the Primal / Paleo lifestyle – it will give you some insight into the benefits of such a lifestyle

In 2016 don’t put off getting into a healthier and fitter lifestyle

As a Wellness Coach let me help you make 2016 your best year yet

Namaste Joyce

“Mark Sisson here, and I want to let you in on a key weight loss secret: the best way to lose weight and build muscle is with a diet high in quality fat and protein. Try it on for size and you'll find yourself inadvertently eating less without sacrificing satiation or satisfaction.

Protein satisfies your appetite because it's digested much more slowly than carbohydrates are. Protein feeds your body a steady stream of absorbable nutrients, while carbs spike your blood sugar and leave you craving more--more carbs, more calories, more junk food.

Research has shown that there's also a hormonal mechanism behind protein's hunger-quenching effect. One study published in the journal Cell Metabolism suggests that increasing the protein content of your diet will raise your body's levels of a hunger-fighting protein called peptide YY (PYY).

As for fat, well think about it: When's the last time you binged on fatty lamb chops and steak? Now, when's the last time you were tempted to binge on high-carb potato chips? Fat is just more satisfying and, when a high-fat diet is supported by low-carb intake, it makes it easier to access stored body fat for energy. Numerous studies indicate that low-carb, high-fat diets reduce weight and help retain and even increase lean mass”.

Add Essential Oils for your Heatlh

I hear it all the time ‘I want to be fitter’ when in fact what we really mean is we want to be slimmer/ look better. Of course, we all want to look and feel better – but not at the expense of our ‘health’ -Health is so much more than a physical image or numbers on a scale. As Health Coach I believe ‘healthier’ is more than the sum of how slim we look or any number on a scale – being ‘healthier’ is three dimensional – 3D – it’s about eating nutritious foods, that allow your body and mind to thrive. It all starts with nutrition you just cannot train your body or ‘run’ out of bad or poor eating habits. From my personal perspective it’s about the nutrient quality of the foods – keeping our ‘guts’ healthy to keep our immune system healthy, that in turn provides us with the physical and psychological energy that motivates us to move, be more active, cope with stress, be social interactive and enjoy life’s little and big adventures As well as eating n...

Push yourself beyond your limits

“As difficult as your toughest workout may be, you will not perish from the discomfort you experience. In fact, pushing yourself to new limits is what makes you stronger and better able to handle more stress in the future. Most people never come close to their actual limits and often quit when challenges are very difficult. Moving forward, challenge yourself to give 100% effort at every difficult workout that you are faced with. If you consistently do this, you will learn how to never accept failure as an option.” Nav Vii
