Good nutrition

By

The north Dallas MLS meeting this week had one of the best speakers we have had in a very long time. 

Jill Lane is certified nutritionist and her presentation consisted of several simple ways to improve you life through proper nutrition. 

Some of her high points were make sure we always drink plenty of water each day.  Her recommendation is that you drink one half of your body weight in ounces of water each day.  Try not to eat at least two hours before going to bed.  Drinking six cups of green tea is the equivalent of burning 500 calories each day.  Get at least eight hours of sleep each day, and that each hour of sleep you miss, your brain function is decreased by 10%.  

You can sign up for a free newsletter and an entire copy of her presentation by visiting her web site www.jilllane.com

I think I just realized why my brain function seems nonexistent at times!  I'm also adding green tea to my diiet.  Does that mean I have to do away with my Diet Coke habit?

Richard, my brain function is decreased for sure.  I need more sleep.  It's hard to sleep when you have to meet a clients at 10pm!!!  At least it's not every day...  Most times I don't get to bed on time it's my own fault, or Active Rain's fault for keeping me up!!! just kidding.

Michael,

Thanks for your comments.  Unfortunately she did not mention red or white wine, and not cigars either.
