7 Diet Myths Revealed

Surprising Truths Behind 7 Diet Myths Read all 7 Diet Myths Revealed ==> http://empowerednutrition.com/7-diet-myths-revealed In doing a little personal research and contemplating the many crazy stories I hear about weight loss every day over the course of 17 plus years, I came up with this short and sweet list of some of the more ludicrous diet myths. So here are 7 totally odd diet myths full disclosure. I cut the fat out of these myths for you. Not only that I stepped it up and cross referenced my knowledge with that of a top nutritional researcher working in university and medical labs. Thanks to the Internet, there’s a ton of nutrition information or “MIS-information” available. Unfortunately, some of it comes from unqualified people writing about their own theories or companies pushing their products. It’s no surprise, then, that misinformation is repeated as often as it is—and that it often comes to be taken as truth. On my request a friend of mine went to Keri Gans, MS, RD, a highly regarded registered dietician and spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association, to help set the facts straight once and for all.

My Opinion on Lean Cuisine and Ready Made Meals

Reader inspired blog post regarding "ready-made" meals and yogurts. http://empowerednutrition.com/my-opinion-on-lean-cuisine-and-ready-made-meals ---------------------------------------------- On Tue, May 31, 2011 at 3:22 PM, Barbara wrote: Patrick, Quick question...do you think yoplait yogurt and lean cuisines are bad for a weight loss program. I buy these meals because they are fast to make and I buy the yogurt because all you have to do it take the top off and it's a “ready-made” meal just like the lean cuisines. Do you think I would be better off eating an apple, orange or other fruit in place of these?

Cinco de Mayo Vegan Style

Many folks confuse Cinco de Mayo with Mexican Independence Day, but these are two different holidays. Cinco de Mayo celebrates a small Mexican army defeating the French in Puebla against all odds.

8 Simple Steps to a New Green Diet Nowhere does the win/win of green living for health and the environment show up more than when one chooses to eat the foods of a green diet. This diet is the old and timeless one of eating real food grown locally in well-tended soil, with some adaptations for modern life. Some might say this is the original diet, the way we (humans) were meant to eat. I just call it common sense for longevity of a great life, not a short mediocre life. Here are the steps to living a greener, healthier, longer life ==> http://empowerednutrition.com/8-super-simple-steps-to-a-new-green-diet…

FAQ – Getting Rid of Love Handles

FAQ – Getting Rid of Love Handles I just got another question that I get a lot of the time and thought perhaps you would find it of use. This one has three components to losing love handles; Nutrition, Exercise and Weird Science. Joe asked me: “hey Patrick, I had a question what is the best thing for getting rid of love handles but still maintaining your weight? i want to gain weight but build muscle not fat. I seem to do so pretty well but that one section seems to always be more than I want.” And below you can read my response to what Joe has said and take it or leave, it, but know this, if you apply these tactics you will tighten your abs and make the hated love handles go bye-bye.

bitbybite: Weight 5.5 lbs down - % fat loss not sure - will check when I go for my weigh in. Would like to be able to gauge fat loss, muscle gain

Carol
I’m doing ok in the fat loss area. Lost 16 pounds so far

- I started combining the Empowered Meal Plans and Turbulence Training: I can clearly see muscles being added.

The mealplans are very easy to follow so the only thing sitting between now and reaching my goals is time.
