Time of eating. Is it really important? Fat burning, health, performance, longevity, gut health, muscles.
Yes, it is important.
There is more and more research coming out on TRF, or time restricted feeding, its effects on weight loss, metabolism, health, longevity and it all seems to confirm, at least what we have so far, that eating earlier in the day, following our circadian rhythms, is definitely beneficial for our health.
How many benefits and how many processes in our body are influenced by the time of our meals has not been studied well enough but it’s proven that:
Early eating helps to control hunger, and benefits digestion and gut health (and we know how gut health is important)
Early eating improves absorption of nutrients from food (over-feeding and under-nourishment is an issues in our society)
Early eating improves the quality of sleep (most people are sleep deprived)
Early eating combined with longer periods between dinner and breakfast helps to make metabolism more flexible, switching from carb burning to fat burning, and helps to burn more fat
Listen to full episode for more details, times of meals and meal timing for maximum muscle growth and recovery.

How calorie counting doesn’t work and why you STILL need to watch how much you eat.
Tune in to understand the basics of calorie counting theory and how and why just counting calories is not a workable strategy.2 practical things you need to apply to your healthy eating/dieting/weight loss strategies to succeed:ONE.Always look for foods, that require more energy to digest them to lose and maintain weight easier – hint, the less processed the food is (raw, slightly steamed etc.), the more fiber it has, the more WHOLE protein it has, the more difficult it is to breakdown, the more energy your body will spend on digestion – the less calories you will absorb and the easier it is to lose/maintain weight. (That’s why eating same amount of calories from Oreos and Broccoli will have different effect).TWO.Portions still matter. Stick to the same kinds of unprocessed whole foods. Change the amount of the SAME foods to adjust your body weight. Play with macronutrients: carbs, proteins and fats to change the amount of fat and muscles you carry.Book mentioned:Catching Fire: How cooking made us human.Questions?

How to snack without overeating. Smart Snack Formula.
My personal experience, my clients’ successes - they taught me how to have a snack, when you need it, without turning it into hundreds and thousands of calories surplus, sabotaging often your health and weight loss goals and success.
So, how to snack smart?
Smart snack must:
Be Blah… - Be bland in other words, not overexciting your taste buds with flavor! You got to like it, enjoy it, but not too much. If you, like me love cashews, don’t snack on them, because you’ll end up eating all the cashews in sight either now or later.
Fill You Up – no matter how good snacking on celery and carrot sticks, or kale chips sounds, you’ll be hungry as soon as you finish eating them. Smart snack must have fat or protein or two combined together to fill your gas tank, eliminate hunger and cravings - and low calorie, carb snacks just don’t do that.
TUNE IN to find out what I snack on during the day and before bed, when I feel like I need that extra bit of energy to crush the day… or the pillow!
