O telemóvel passou a ser uma extensão de nós próprios, e assim está a ser o início dos seres humanos biónicos.
Quando utilizamos o telemóvel durante as refeições, não temos a consciência plena do acto de comer, actuamos em modo automático e não desfrutamos os sabores e o momento da refeição. Deste modo, convertemos a necessidade de comer numa espécie de fome emocional. Consequentemente, comemos mais rápido, não nos sentimos saciados e acabamos por comer em maior quantidade. Podemos até engasgar-nos.
Para contrariar isso, devemos prestar atenção ao que estamos a fazer, mastigar de forma correta e suficiente, os alimentos e aprender a separar os espaços e os tempos de cada actividade.
Hoje não vamos falar de dieta, hoje vamos falar da vida, ou melhor, de celebrar a vida!
Hoje faz anos o meu filho Rafael, parabéns filho!
E que fantástica oportunidade para fazer “o dia da asneira”! Com certeza que o vamos fazer.
Sou a favor que os filhos têm que seguir o seu próprio caminho, sempre com o nosso apoio e estímulo, claro, mas no final, a escolha será deles. O nosso papel, como pais, é acompanhá-los e, por vezes, sermos o amigo que eles mais precisam. No entanto, nunca nos devemos esquecer que, primeiro, somos pais.
Folic Acid or Vitamin B-9 supplementation is very important during pregnancy, but not only. It is essential for the development of new cells and, especially, red blood cells, responsible for supplying oxygen to our entire body. In addition, it prevents congenital brain and vertebral pathologies.
And in this way, we realize its importance, at any age.
We must ensure that there are no deficiencies in Folic Acid. If necessary, we must supplement, however the ideal is to eat foods rich in it, such as soy, black beans, turnips, spinach and broccoli.
When we talk about vitamin C, we immediately think of its effectiveness against colds. But in reality it is much more than a good immune system stimulant, it is also a potent antioxidant, which will improve health and delay the aging process, aid in the formation of collagen, potent tissue repairer, very important for joint health and for the skin, among others. Fundamental to produce certain neurotransmitters, with their important benefits in the neurological system.
Very well tolerated, up to 2 g/day, but its excess can produce unwanted accumulations of iron.
The most important sources are acerola juice (highlighted in the first place) and then the yellow pepper. Also important are raisins, tomatoes, kiwis, papayas, oranges, strawberries, broccoli and cauliflower.
Magnesium is a mediator of more than 300 enzymatic reactions and, in addition, its lack can cause problems with heart contraction, high blood pressure, anxiety, diabetes, lack of memory, insomnia, cramps and even intestinal difficulties.
Diabetics are more easily deficient in magnesium and, by eating a low-carbohydrate or ketogenic diet, they increase this possibility even more.
With severe caloric deficit or when the diet is not adequate, we have to look for formulas with a good bioavailability of magnesium, such as Gluconate, Citrate or Magnesium Glycinate.
A suitable average dosage would be about 200 mg of elemental magnesium, that is, the amount of magnesium itself. But this decision should always have the follow-up of your doctor or nutritionist.
The ideal would be to include foods rich in magnesium such as pumpkin seeds, Brazil nuts, sesame, flaxseed, cashew, peanuts, almonds, oats, spinach, edamames, among others.
