Nutrition Tips

Nutrition Tip: As you start a strength regimen this new year, don't get caught in the thinking that now you deserve a substantial snack  after your workout. It takes about eight weeks of progressive heavy lifting three times a week to see a gain in muscle weight and then it would only be a couple of pounds.

Nutrition Tip:  You may have heard about the friendly guys called probiotics.  Cultured bacteria that can potentially promote health are called probiotics. The beneficial bacteria that line the intestinal tract may help prevent the body's immune system from causing inflammation in the gut.  This is great health news for everyone especially if you suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).  Flora Source is a reliable brand of probiotic.
