Fitness Model Diet – A Typical Day in the Life

Fitness models are some of the most beautiful, toned, sexy women on earth. It’s only natural that women who are trying to lose weight would look to them for inspiration, and many would also like to know what a typical fitness model diet consists of. You may think that any diet they follow would be extreme, but eating healthy doesn’t have to be difficult.
Most fitness models eat five or six small meals a day. This may sound like a lot, but eating like this keeps your metabolism burning calories and keeps you from feeling hungry between meals. If you think you’re eating too much, pay close attention to your portion sizes and how you feel after you eat. You should never have that stuffed feeling.
To keep body fat to a low percentage, eat a high protein, low carb, and low fat diet. Although it’s a good rule of thumb to eat everything in moderation, if you follow these guidelines, you can lose excess fat fairly quickly. Some examples of lean protein would be chicken, turkey, fish, egg whites, and protein shakes. Good carbs to include in your diet could be oatmeal, sweet potatoes, and rice.
Veggies should be a big part of any diet, but watch what you put on your vegetables. Steaming is best to keep the nutrients in your greens. Large salads with light dressing will help to fill you up with fewer calories.
Alcohol should be avoided for the most part, but it’s okay to have a glass of wine with your dinner once or twice a week. Most people find that alcohol will lower their self-control, and they may find themselves eating things they hadn’t planned on.
A typical fitness model diet is not so different than any other healthy eating plan you may find. Closer to competition time, fitness models may cut their intake of carbs even more, but during the off season, their diet should be easy to follow.

Tomatoes and the Candida Diet

Tomatoes, once thought to be poisonous and grown only for decorative purposes, are today one of the world’s leading vegetable crops. Tomatoes have always been a part of my diet as I am huge fan of marinara sauce and salsa. Fortunately, tomatoes are permitted on the candida diet which I currently follow. The candida diet also known the anti-candida or yeast free diet is the cornerstone of treatment for a medical condition known as candidiasis. Candidiasis is an overgrowth of yeast in the body which causes a wide variety of seemingly unrelated health problems. Research suggests that a variety of foods and ingredients can exacerbate this condition. The candida diet seeks to eliminate or greatly reduce the intake of such foods.
