Nutrition

What is emphasized in every diet plan is nutrition. Unfortunately, you can't eat everything and anything but you can still enjoy what you are eating. Nutrition is the sustenance and nourishment of foods that your body retains when consumed. Most berries are known as 'antioxidant fruits' that help remove the toxins from your body. Berries such as strawberries, raspberries and the most powerful-blueberries. All of these are delicious and good for you, so who says nutrition is boring and not enjoyable. It is key to keep your body full of fruits and vegetables so that you retain vitamins such as b and c, or even e and d. There is also iron in many vegetables that you can eat like spinach. It is very important to eat veggies with iron in it because it restores the hemoglobin in your red blood cells. If you are deficient in iron you become anemic and this will make working out a difficult task. You will feel lethargic majority of the time and the first thing that will come to your mind is SLEEP! you cannot work out when your sleeping!

Remember: If you are looking to lose weight, protein and a little bit of work out is needed.
Lot's of protein and no bad fats added is key! things like plain chicken, steak, tuna, fish, turkey with no gravy. These are all high in protein and will allow your metabolism to work work work! Also, keep in mind, it's not just about losing weight its maintaining your health. Give your body what it needs to survive (Vitamins, minerals, water, protein and grains. All these things assist in helping your body produce, reduce, digest and energize)

A great book to have, is "Power Juices Super Drinks" by Steve Meyerowitz.
It's a book that incorporates many different fruits and vegetables (common and exotic) into juices for different parts of your body like the mind. It creates juices that help with sleep issues, cramps, diet, acne etc.
