Seattle Nutrition

If you want a Seattle nutrition expert because you want to get healthier, why not use one that can also help you with an exercise program? You need to work with a personal trainer certified in both exercise and nutrition to do this. It's one stop shopping for health when you use a trainer's services. Personal trainers not only listen to any special needs you may have, but they also consider your goals and fitness level before designing a program specifically for you.

Eating healthy doesn't mean eating bland tasteless food.

Too many people have the misconception that eating healthy means eating only celery sticks and rice wafers. Nothing could be further from the truth. Eating healthy means making a few substitutions, such as using whole grain bread instead of white bread or wild rice instead of white processed rice. It also means eating whole foods. Nothing is better than a fresh tomato sprinkled lightly with balsamic vinaigrette and sprinkles with a little feta, Parmesan or mozzarella cheese or roasted salmon with pesto and veggies.

Eating healthy isn't a diet, it's a way of life.

Our society is based on quick packaged foods that contain more chemicals and preservatives than they do nutrition. Eating whole foods, ones closer to their natural state, helps eliminate many of the chemicals and unhealthy ingredients from your diet. Making wiser choices at the grocery and at restaurants means big weight losses and a healthier you. Losing weight is all about making the right choice when it comes to food selection. Unlike a diet, it's flexible and soon becomes a way of life.

Combining diet and exercise puts a whammy on fat and makes you healthier.

Many of the illnesses today come from eating the wrong foods and a sedentary lifestyle. Some people, in fact, could throw away their prescriptions after just a few months of a healthy diet and regularly scheduled exercise. Both of these help prevent serious conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and even some types of cancer. They also make these conditions easier to control if you already have them. You'll not only feel healthier, you'll lose weight easier and look fantastic.

A personal trainer will show you how to eat healthy regardless of your lifestyle. Whether you're a stay at home parent or a person on the road continuously, the trainer can give you easy to follow tips on healthy eating and a workout program that suits your lifestyle.

Regular exercise lengthens the telomeres. These protect the chromosomes and help prevent cell damage and destruction. Longer cell life leads to staying younger looking and being healthier.

A healthy diet provides all the nutrients necessary to keep disease at bay. Many studies show that phytonutrients, such as anthocyanins, the pigment that makes blueberries the color blue, help prevent serious diseases, such as cancer.

Weight bearing exercise, such as walking or dancing can be just as beneficial for bone health as most medications and the only side effect is more energy and vitality.
