Popular health advice around the holidays usually includes such nonsense as doing squats before you pig-out, taking charcoal capsules after you drink too much, and going to the gym twice per day in an attempt to balance out your gluttony. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but none of those things will undo the damage of overeating and overdrinking—but there are some simple strategies that can really make a difference.


Listen & learn:



  • Why eating 1 gram/ 1lb of body weight is a simple way to keep you holiday food consumption in check

  • Why desserts and alcohol are the most fat-inducing things to avoid

  • How to make your holidays more active and naturally fitness-oriented

  • Why mental health is an absolute must during the holidays, and some simple ideas for getting started


Nutritional Tip of the Week:



  • Phytoestrogens and Xenoestrogens - how do they affect us?
