Which beverage? tea or coffee?

Written by Brendan Murphy blog@personaltraining.ie

Coffee gets lots of bad press so does tea sometimes! Both get slated sometimes for their caffeine content. Green tea has a great reputation but also contains decent levels of caffeine compared to normal black tea. Coffee has higher levels of caffeine but if you dont have it for breakfast, lunch and tea and everytime you sit down then you may well benefit from the therapeutic benefits of coffee. Like all processed and junk foods, instant coffee in your jar is rubbish even the one that has a reputation for being the same as real coffee! What rubbish! read on...

This is another topic of interest to many people because a large percentage of the population have trouble in this department.

This is a disaster for your health. Read on.

Lactose Intolerance

Written by Brendan Murphy.   

 Please visit  WWW.PERSONALTRAINING.IE  for lots more info.    

 

Lactose intolerance is caused by the inability to break down lactose usually through a deficiency of lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose. The lactose (sugar) is then fermented in the intestine/colon by the resident bacteria which produces the gas associated with lactose intolerance.

Diabetes on the rise

News came this week that diabetes is predicted to affect 380 million people globally by the year 2025. Seeing as this figure was 30 million just 20 years ago, there's clearly cause for concern. So what are we going to do about it? In today's blog, I've outlined the two main strategies that I believe are likely to stem the tide. One, not surprisingly, is to move more. The other, is to chuck out conventional dietary advice given regarding the prevention and treatment of diabetes. To find out why this is important, and what works better,

Is Bulimia all in the mind?

Compliments of Dr John Brifa, (drbriffa.com)

Bulimia is an eating disorder characterised by cycles of 'bingeing and purging'. This condition was in the news recently because its incidence in cities has been found to be some 5 times greater than that in rural areas. On Monday, I offered a part-explanation for this phenomenon which concerns chemical imbalance in the brain. While bulimia is generally considered to be a principally psychological problem, there is amassing evidence that its root cause can be physiological in nature. In Monday's post, I suggest two nutritional approaches that I find in practice are often highly effective in controlling and even banishing bulimic symptoms.
