Nutrition is messy
I want to bring a tiny bit of clarity to this messy mess called nutrition. Because the most common question I get is about what is a vegetable and what is not, today I'll share with you an easy way to classify plant foods nutritionally. No debates, no feuds, no tribes, no bull 💩.
My Bias IN NUTRITION: Mobile Control
In my last post I said that when it came to nutrition stating one’s bias was a token of intellectual honesty I respected. I realized that I have never stated my bias in this blog. I have said it a thousand times when asked by people on what is my approach to nutrition, or when doing food presentations. But I have never given it a good and thorough characterization.

No matter what. I could drop the mic there and leave. But I will not. Get this. Your brain does not function as well when you are inactive. You are not as productive and your thinking is not as sharp. I am not talking about being super fit and lifting all the weights and doing...
Eating in the car
My job as a fitness coach is to help people create the habits necessary to achieve their goals. Most of the time those habits go very much against traditional cultural practices, sometimes they go against my trainee’s very identity. This means there can be a great deal of resistance involved in changing habits. When I ask people to eat veggies for breakfast they usually look at me as if I were completely insane.
