The Importance of Nutrition

By Tiffany Fuentes
Hello to all of you who know me and welcome to those of you who are reading me for the first time. I often call myself a food psycho, one as a disclaimer. I know being as particular as I am about my diet is hard work, but also because I know that many people don’t wish to know the ugly truths about the food we eat. But you don’t have to be crazy to make great decisions, eat well, and feel energized.

Food is a product, and unfortunately returns profits, which means that we the consumers are not in the best interest of those that handle, prepare and sell us our food.

I am more than happy to answer specific emails about anything and everything regarding food and wellness. I am a personal trainer at the Rye Y and can tell you that nothing you do in the gym is as important as the food you eat. It affects the energy you have to get out of bed, your concentration levels throughout the day, the texture and color of your skin, and most important your basic cellular function which is all musculoskeletal maintenance, efficient biological systems, including the removal of waste and toxins.

Stay tuned for more to come and please be sure to attend the opening night of our new Nutrition Integration Series this Friday. There is a four or nine week option, but the first night is an opportunity for all to come together and discuss the fundamentals of nutrition and the importance it has on your fitness goals.  The workshop meets Tuesdays OR Fridays from 6:00pm-6:30pm in the member lounge.   Click here for more details. I welcome you to join the first workshop, risk free and have an opportunity to sign up at the end of the workshop.
