Are Multi-Vitamins Beneficial

I have mixed emotions on this, but I will say they provide a dangerous placebo that make people think they can eat junk food and solve any damage by popping a pill. Multivitamins are not a substitute for healthy eating. […]


Winterize Your Workouts

Winterize Your Workouts

Even in a warm area like San Antonio, you may need to winterize your workouts. While a low temperature like 40 to 41 degrees is like a warm spring day to someone in Minnesota, Wisconsin or Northern Indiana, it’s still chilly when you’re not used to the cold.

Choosing who has to cook or being stuck with the job because you’re the only one in the house can be a tough job.

Whether it’s the rush of hormones you feel after working out or that feeling of relief when you burn off stress, you’ll not only feel better, you’ll boost your mental well being. Healthy goes with happy in other ways besides just modifying the flood of hormones in your body to give that temporary feeling of […]


Have You Ever Done A Cleanse?

Have You Ever Done A Cleanse?

There’s a lot of hype about all the good a cleanse or detox can do for both weight loss and what ails you, but there’s very little evidence. One thing is certain, it does provide an opportunity to reboot your body, like you would a computer, and then start on a healthy diet adding new […]
