Your Metabolism is Key

How many calories you burn a day is directly related to your metabolic rate, which is dependent on your 'lean mass' and also how active you are.



On a Herbalife weight management programme, your distributor (me!) will be able to tell you how to balance your diet and how much protein you need daily for your body to maintain your own lean mass.

Don't Lose Your Mind!

This must qualify as a good reason to eat a healthy diet - a study in the British Medical Journal has suggested that  brain function can start to decline in people as young as 45.
Results showed that memory and comprehension skills declined in men and women over 45, and there was a faster decline in older people.
The head of research at Alzheimer's Research UK said:

 "Previous research suggests that our health in mid-life affects our risk of dementia as we age, and these findings give us all an extra reason to stick to our New Year's resolutions.
Although we don't yet have a sure-fire way to prevent dementia, we do know that simple lifestyle changes - such as eating a healthy diet, not smoking, and keeping blood pressure and cholesterol in check - can all reduce the risk of dementia."
