We are emotional beings.
All of us deal differently with stress and anxiety!
I like to say we are all emotional eaters, whether you eat or don’t eat when you are stressed out!!!
Either way it has to do with food…
Many of my clients won’t tell me exactly what they do, however I can tell…
If you are consistent with your diet, your body will eventually lose…
Even if you stay for a period of time, something shifts (muscle to fat ratio)
Muscle density does not come from binge cycles ….it comes from consistency!
Consistency in your program and consistency in nutrition!!!
Binging out, then trying to make up for it through fasting and cleansing, just to go back to binging!
You keep losing quality muscle and exchange it with fat!
Remember you can not live forever on vegetable juice!!!
Balance is the key to achieve the results you acquire .
Protein, fat, and carbohydrates should all be present with each meal !
Proteins from fish and chicken, some plant.
Fats from avocado, nuts, seeds, olive oil in small amounts , and carbohydrates…
More with your morning meals, less later, and only plant at night!
But remember all vegetables have carbohydrates!
When you grave sugar or chocolate your body wants carbs…
As soon as you eat some rice or oats or potato, the graving will subside π
Try it next time!
Never wait more than 3 hours between meals !
Don’t go shopping hungry!!!
Never go to dinner or party’s starving…
Eating 5-6 small meals every 3 hours and staying away from simple sugars can prevent diabetis later in life!!!
There are also supplements that help prevent glucose from dropping so low that you need to binge.
Freddie’s Nutrition has a wide variety to chose from π

Body Revision By Claudia
I have blogged about this subject many times before.
However recently I feel more and more the urge to motivate you guys to improve your body through working with your connective tissue!
Not to long ago it has been recognized that our connective tissue (fascia) surrounding our muscles and connecting to joints is very articulate in deed!
Tightness, imbalance, pain and loss in flexibility has very much to do with Fascia and our nervous system in how they communicate with each other!
This blog will be in my primitive verbiage and put the way it’s in my mind (lol)!!!
We are all slaves of repetitive movements…
Whether it is sitting on a desk all day, running a marathon, using the same exercise or cardio machine, or bring lazy and lying in bed all day!
Sleeping the wrong way….
Standing all day…
Everything is repetitive and causes inflammation in your tissue!
Our muscles never completely shut of!!!
While you are sitting in your office, your hip flexors stay activated while your gluteus got the memo to turn of…
After several hours of work getting out of your chair becomes a struggle…
Your gluteus have gotten lazy and won’t respond, your hip flexors are pulling the from of your body giving you a hinged over posture, your hamstrings and lower back are the back up for your body to get you out of that darn chair!!!
Lower back pain?
Quad tightness and knots?
Neck tightness?
Shoulder pain?
Sounds familiar?
Stretching is of most importance!!!
Yes, it doesn’t burn tons of calories…
It’s not a lot of fun…
But it is extremely important to keep your body balanced!
Sometimes stretching alone is not enough…
This is when Myofascial release comes in!
Using a Foam roller (they come with a manual), roll on a regular basis (every other day) over all problem areas, but include attaching muscles as well!
Which means your whole body π
Finish by a 15-20 minute stretching routine!
Remember it takes about 20 sec per stretch to command your receptors “it’s time to let go”, so do not go to fast!!!
Next step up would be DMS!!!
In my opinion DMS is send to us from heaven!!!
Deep Muscle Stimulation!
To me DMS is not painful, rather a feel good service like Deep
Tissue massage…
But depending on your sensitivity and pain tolerance you may experience it differently!
DMS sends hundreds of vibrations into the deepest muscle tissue, changing the way of your nervous system, losening fascia tightness, taking care of trigger points and inflammation of all kind!!!
Yes, you might have a lower pain tolerance and experience it different from me..
Yes, you might get bruising depending of sensitivity and elasticity of your tissue…
But in every case it helps!!!
Gain back your range of motion!
Be pain free!
Get your strength back!
Who really cares about bruises that go away!
If you would like to know more about DMS please contact me!
Years of imbalance might have thrown your kinetic chain completely of!!!
Now you are carrying 40 pounds on your cervical spine, your lordosis is going out of control, your posture is making you look old and tired!
Aliante Chiropractic would be a next step to work with your imbalance and create synergy to your muscles.
Dr Jason Jaeger has developed a special Traction Application that will help over several session to bring your body back into alignment!!!
“Cracking” your spine and joints will only work momentarily until your tight muscles are pulling back into out of place!
It is one of the most advanced and least invasive procedures on the market!!!
How can you stay in balance without having to go through extreme measures?
Stretching every day!!!
Join a Yoga Class…
Lvac is offering amazing classes all included in your membership!!!!

Having a pain free body and great posture is the quality of life….. I would like to share a video clip of Aliante Chiropractic & Integrated Health Testimonial…..
With all the different artificial sweeteners on the market we are to believe that we can have the taste of sugar without consequences…
As we all know all artificial sweeteners are poison and cause reactions not just in our brain, but also our liver, and other internal organs!
Even Truvia causes reactions because it is very processed and not at it’s natural state like stevia….
Besides the point of causing damage in your body, sugar exchanges no matter how close to natural are still sweet!!!
That’s the point right?
Well, as soon as something “sweet” reaches your tong and censors, your pancreas will release insulin, increasing fat production in your liver and causing weight gain eventually!
Sucks right?
I have been using artificial sweeteners in the past to flavor my protein pancake, oatmeal muffins and other healthy treats I make!
Lately I have noticed that not much has happened in my fat loss process…
So last week I have been staying away completely from all sugar exchanges, just eating plain old oats…egg whites…a.s.o
My body was giving me a fast forward to weight loss!
There was a significant change in the appearance of my midsection!
This is my personal opinion:
While first time dieters may get away while using artificial sweeteners, repetitive dieters as myself can no longer achieve results!!!
While you can still use some sort of natural sweetener sporadically or as a treat, staying away from sweet tasting foods and exchanges might be the key to speed up or re activate your personal goal!
As always please visit Freddie’s Nutrition in Las Vegas for amazing prices in Supplements and Natural Products!

If you have never taken any nutritional supplements you need to start now!!!
Let’s not even think about organic food, GMO, or any of that stuff….
Unless you have a vegetable garden at your house and harvest your own fruit and veggies, you are in nutrition deficit !!!
Your produce has been harvested at a Pre mature stage, put on a box, delivered to your favorite store two weeks ago….
You are left with 25% of the original nutrition of your food!
Chances are that you keep the very same food in your fridge for a couple of days at least before you eat it….
Cooked ….nuked….
How much of your nutritional value you think you have left???
Chances are not much!
We are a malnutritioned society π
Cancer, heart disease , autoimmune disfunction…
Sad but true!
We need to supplement our food intake!
Start by using a good multivitamin supplement ( quality please not a daily one )!
Calcium Magnesium and Zinc (gel caps or capsule not hard pressed pills)!
Go from there..
Stress levels? Vitamin B complex, cortisol blocker
Energy? B12 , D, C
Depleted adrenal glands from caffeine and other sources?
Hair, skin, nails?
Muscles?
Fighting free radicals? (Hello … We live in a polluted world created by us)!
There are hundreds of reasons why WE don’t function right ….
I notice a big difference in my process of either gaining muscle or leaning out!
Without supplements I end up with flat looking muscle, or my weight/fat loss process is very slow.
Anabolism and catabolism ( muscle gain and muscle loss) Β happens every day, but you can change the ratio in how this happens π
For Β all your nutritional supplements please visit Freddie’s in Las Vegas, or simply click on the Freddie’s link on this page!
