Top Nutritional tips
for health

Nutritional tips from Zen 02 are in line with current governmental health advice as found within the www.nice.org.uk guidance.  As qualified fitness coaches and personal trainers we give evidence-based advice only and especially avoid dieting fads led by profit-bound enterprises or misguided people.

So ease your way into a stellar lifestyle transformation - we can tell you what doctors are too busy or too rigid to tell you.

To start with, here's a video featuring Debi Holland, co-founder of Zen 02 with her secrets for trimming & toning your body, and maintaining your fabulous healthy lifestyle. 

What Debi is saying in her video is backed up by findings from the National Weight Loss Registry (Klem et al., 1997) where an ongoing study is being done of people who kept off their weight for longer than 5 years (when 90-95% regained the weight they lost). 

Two common factors of the successful were regular eating and never skipping breakfast. 

Having a nutritious dense breakfast and regular eating helps curb unconscious cravings which lead to  the need to indulge during the day and evening.

If you combine these top two nutritional tips with certain facts that doctors don't seem willing to talk about openly, you are armed with some real transformational knowledge.

What are those facts?

It seems there is plain evidence to show that a broadly plant-based diet is beneficial to health, whereas eating animal based products has proven health risks.

For instance, the Cornell-Oxford-China study conducted throughout the late 20th century indicated animal-based food were associated with statistically significant increases in risk factors associated with certain chronic diseases.

Does this mean we all have to become vegans overnight? No, because there are risks in everything: crossing the road, boarding an aeroplane etc.

We just need to be risk aware; and the global stats seems to be indicating those who eat less animal products and more plant based foods have less risk for disease.

Grasp it, get ready and …. GO!

DO THIS . . . .

Plan your fitness & nutrition programme in your diary with menus and workout times. Use the videos and nutrition information on this page below.  Once you have drawn up your timetable, stick to the basics, tweaking so that it works for you.

Can you eat cake or have wine-o'clock?  Yes, but as treats you look forward to, rather than the norm.  If you have set a goal, say to lose weight, until you reach your goal, stick to your plan. 

Here's how the numbers work:  

If you only stick to plan 70 per cent of the time you will achieve only 40 percent of your goals. 

Once you get where you want to, you can get away with only working to 70 percent of your plan to maintain your achievements.

So how have we designed Zen 02 to be central to your plan?
