Protein powders are they really necessary?

Protein powders.

Protein powders are dietary supplements containing a substantial amount of protein. When mixed with water they become a shake or smoothie type drink. In addition, the powder is highly processed to increase shelf life and also so they don’t leave a terrible taste in your mouth.

Nutrient timing and the Glycaemic window.

Have you ever thought or asked;

“Should I eat before a workout or should I fast?” Or

“What should I be eating before and after a workout?”

Well you are not alone.

These questions are so often asked that there is many research papers surrounding the topics that science calls “Nutrient timing and the Glycaemic window.”

Extra Virgin Olive Oil and the Mediterranean diet.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is regarded as the highest grade olive oil processed from the pressing of good quality olives.

For an olive oil to be labelled “Extra Virgin” the International Olive Council (IOC) states it must meet certain chemical criteria and pass tasting benchmarks determined by a sensory panel trained to IOC standards.

Olive oil is the healthiest oil being RICH in monounsaturated fats and contain a wide variety of antioxidants. In addition, Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the main source of fat in the Mediterranean style diet which evidence suggests is good for weight control and heart health.
