Slim Up, Slim Down!

How powering up with the right foods slim you down for that perfect bikini body:
It’s a common misperception that you have to eat less to lose weight.  In fact, eating fewer meals lowers your metabolism and makes it hard to get those last few pounds off viagra generika kaufen.
To rev up your metabolism and burn fat, it’s best to eat 5-6 meals a day consisting of 20-25 grams of lean protein, 20-25 grams of simple carbs such as those found in non-root vegetables such as asparagus, brussel sprouts, kale, spinach, zucchini, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, watercress, eggplant, and lettuce.  Good fats like olive oil, coconut oil are calorie-dense and should be used sparingly.  ~Dr. Mylaine Riobe, Author of The Tao of Integrative Medicine and The Answer to Cancer

With bright and colorful pictures and recipes to match, The Low FODMAP Solution by Ciniza Cuneo makes cooking lively. This book is a key resource for anyone suffering from IBS and abdominal pains. By combining a specific and personalized approach, Ciniza Cuneo’s guide reads like a discussion with a close friend.
