BODY MASS INDEX From middle age on, you can lose 3% of muscle mass a year, a leading cause of disability, insulin resistance and related health woes. Tools to measure fat and muscle include Calipers or In-Body. Do resistance training with bands or weights, at least 2 to 3 times a week. You will build and feel precious muscle.

Fat Fight Focus Still working from home? Comfort meals or fast food delivery may not be your friend during business hours. A new study in the American Journal of clinical nutrition suggest that eating just one meal high in saturated fat can impede your ability to concentrate. The study compared the focus and attention of women after eating a meal high in saturated fat to women eating the same meal made with sunflower oil, low in saturated fat. Ohh and don’t forget to exercise!

Weighing the value of the scale... Studies show that self-monitoring of eating habits, physical activity and weight are interventions that can help with weight loss and prevent unintended weight gain. Those who monitor their weight closely may find frequent weighing helpful as they are able to notice a pattern of weight change sooner and make adjustments. But, it’s also OK if you don’t want to weigh yourself or own a scale. The numbe...r on the scale is not the only or best measurement when it comes to body composition. You can use a tape measurement or a clothing item to monitor change over time. Do whats right for you. Remember exercise, eat healthy and stay sane! See more

Studies have documented that exercise not only boost the immune system and lowers inflammation but enhances mobility, flexibility and balance. It maintains and increases strength and lowers risk of diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, certain cancers and more. Clearly, exercise gives you much bang for the buck

I’m so proud of my client, Alice. She has gained strength, flexibility and cardiovascular endurance. By the way Alice is 74
