fortius FOOD

Food is a knotty issue. We always think that if it tastes good it must be bad for

you, right? We need food. Food is fuel. It makes us feel energised and kick starts us through the day, hence why breakfast is so important so it will give you energy to start the day.

Here's some food facts.

If you starve yourself to lose weight your body will go into survival mode and store fat

because it doesn't know where it's next meal is coming from.

Because a ready meal says reduced fat does not mean the food industry has significantly reduced fat in that item. They can reduce it by one gram and still put reduced fat on the label. The only label that is accurate is one that says fat free.

A healthy diet provides you with good fats which will promote hdl (high density lipids) to woosh away the bad fats LDL low density lipids.
