Why you need full fat

Why you need full fat

Low fat foods and diet foods – are NOT the best things for weight loss

Our bodies are not designed for excess sugar, which is released into the bloodstream. It affects our energy levels, our hunger levels and also often is stored as fat around our middle

An alternative breakfast could be: 

  • portion (80g) of blueberries and strawberries
  • 3 – 4 tablespoons of Greek Full Fat yoghurt (NOT Greek style) 
  • a few nuts (4 – 5)

This NEW breakfast contains contains the 3 main macro nutrients – Proteins, Fats & Carbohydrates

Fruit – blueberries/ strawberries  – great choice of low calories fruit,  great anti-oxidants, fibre, vitamins and minerals

Full fat yoghurt – good source of protein, healthy fats and a small amount of carbohydrates

Nuts – good source of protein, Omega 3 healthy fats, fibre, different vitamins and minerals. 

We NEED healthy fats in our diet to absorb the fat soluble vitamins A, D, K & E

  • Having Protein, Fats and Carbohydrates in EACH meal helps to improve satiety (keeps you fuller for longer)
  • helps to control and stabalise your blood glucose levels (stopping the cravings and being hungry)
  • helps you stick with your new food plan. 

YOUR GOAL???

Include Protein, Fats and Carbohydrates in EACH of your meals – Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks
