Breakfast Smoothie!

I prefer to start the day with a breakfast smoothie with oatmeal!

What kind of products:

– Oatmeal

– Pieces of Coconut

– Banana

– Protein powder

– Fruits: raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, etc.

– 1 teaspoon flaxseed

You have to add a liquid to make the smoothie.

I prefer to use coconut milk rice.

I usually use Provamel and buy this at EKO Plaza, which is:

 

√ 100% Natural Ingredients

√ Free of additives

√ Free from added sugar

√ Gluten

√ Wheat Free

√ Lactose free

√ Vegan

√ Certified Organic

Most of the time I use fruit out of the freezer so it’s been pretty cold, otherwise you can add ice cubes.

I love the taste of coconut, you get that tropical feeling & it tastes very nice!

Swimming

Healthy, Fit & Tight!

You train all your muscles and joints in your body, while the risk of injuries by you weightlessness in the water is virtually nil.

Swimming is fun, refreshing and relaxing!

Regular swimming gives you a sexy and sleek silhouette

Look at the beautiful bodies of stars like Keira Knightley, Monica Bellucci and Nathalie Portman. It’s their favorite workout!

The positive thing is: you do not really have the fanaticism of an Olympic medalist as to achieve the results.

Research by the University of Indiana showed that recreational swimmers regardless of age having smooth muscles and tighter waists and hips as not swimmers.

With the right approach you’re in no time bikini proof!

With recreational swimming you will burn 500 calories per hour, with more energy you can reach up to 750 calories (running will be around 700 to 600 calories per hour at the gym!).

Tighter in your skin, thanks to the combination of calorie burning and muscle building!

 

Swimming makes everybody happy !

The calming effect of the warm water is the perfect sport to release stress of everyday life.

By moving is endorphins coming free. You can see that on your energy level. This is especially true for women.

The warm water to loosen stiff muscles will make you instantly more relaxed.

A good workout takes at least 30 minutes. You will burn calories, but in the beginning especially carbohydrates. To tap into your fat stores you need to swim longer than 30 minutes.

The more muscle you have, the more fat you will burn again.

 

Anyone can do it and you don’t need to invest. Yu only need a bathing suit (and possibly a swimming cap and goggles).

Healthy advise for your hair: spray before you go in the water some leave-in conditioner in your hair. This provides a protective layer.

Now in the summer it is wonderful when you can swim in an outdoor pool.

Look at www.zwemwater.nl for a pool in your area!

Make a splash!

COCO-NUTS

The nutrition center in Holland indicates that coconut fat is unhealthy, and while I’m such a big fan! Let’s check this out!

Voedingscentrum often does not have it right, because they often base decisions on investigations that are paid by the food industry, think of Unilever. Then they will promote products which owns a lot of E numbers.

How healthy is coconut oil really?

A lot of celebrities say it’s THE healthiest fat on earth and health sites become not stop talking about it.

You can bake with it, to lose weight, for in your hair, your hands and against bacteria.

The great thing about coconut oil is that it retains all the healthy properties, even when it is heated. This is in contrast to olive oil.

Angelina Jolie is having breakfast every day with it, Gisele Bündchen bakes cakes and Gwyneth Paltrow shines even brushing her teeth with it.

Positive:

  • Coconut oil contains medium saturated fatty acids. Which would be absorbed faster and are only used for combustion and are not stored as fat reserves. You would not be fat. Your fat burning can also be 25% higher by coconut oil. It only adds to weight loss by increasing metabolism.
  • Coconut oil is due to its saturated fat more stable than other vegetable oils
  • Healthy for your thyroid
  • Is effective against fungi (Candida)
  • Protects you against viruses
  • Good for your digestion and smooth bowel movements (suitable for people with intestinal problems)
  • Provides a longer feeling of fullness
  • Keep your blood sugar arrow (good for diabetics)
  • Boost your immune system

So you see, more research is important.

I just keep a big fan of coconut oil!

You can also use it for dry skin so you regain a soft skin and for dry lips. Kissable!

You cannot always wait for the perfect time, sometimes you must dare to jump
