The flu season is upon us, and everyone everywhere is being more aware of their health and staying healthy.
Beauty Night realizes that healthy eating is not about strict nutrition philosophies, staying unrealistically thin, or depriving yourself of the foods you love. Rather, it’s about feeling great, having more energy, and keeping yourself as healthy as possible. Which is one reason we are starting a course for moms and tots teaching healthy recipes that they can prepare with the tools that they have (often only hot plates) and the food that they have avaliable to them. We would love to hear your suggestion of recipes!
Eating poorly conributes to stress and many other side effects, such as:
- Blood Sugar Imbalances: When we don’t eat enough food, or don’t eat healthy enough food (too little protein and healthy carbohydrates, too much sugar, etc.) we can experience blood sugar fluctuations. These fluctuations can lead to mood swings, fatigue, poor concentration and other negative consequences in the short term, and greater health problems like hyperglycemia in the long run.
- Caffeine Side Effects: Too much caffeine can lead to poor concentration and decreasef effectiveness, sleep disturbances, and increased levels of cortisol in the blood.
- Poor Health Outcomes: Poor nutrition can also lead to lowered immunity so you’re more susceptible to illnesses, both minor and major. As you can imagine, this can lead to other problems, including increased stress levels.
We feel that helping our clients make great food choices, they will start to feel amazing and make great life choices as well.
