What is TRE? And how does it help you lose weight and protect against chronic disease

I have been experimenting with healthy lifestyle options now for many years and when I find something that works for me I can't wait to share it with you. Along with my recent conversion to a Keto-Green lifestyle I have been following the science on TRE- Time restricted eating and decided it was something to look into for myself.

The promise of giving your body some daily down-time from the work of eating and digesting to unlock powerful repair pathways that protect against chronic illness, ageing and obesity was the appeal for me. It's very simple to do - just ensure that for at least 12 hours in 24 you do not consume ANY calories. And it's not as hard as you think….

The one thing that will lengthen your life

The one thing that will lengthen your life

Amazing fact of the week- A recent study shows that men and women who ramped up their activity gradually to about seven hours a week by the age of 40-61 reduced their risk of death from any cause in the years that followed by about 35%.

All the more reason to not miss your regular pilates, dance and stretch classes, and if anything try and do more. It’s great if you manage one class a week, but by increasing what you do to say two or three classes a week, along with increasing the activity in your day to day life you will be protecting yourself against many of the illnesses related to inactivity and ageing.

The Easiest way to a happy, healthy life

Have you ever put the word 'Pilates' into google images and viewed what comes up? You'll be presented with endless photos of beautiful young women doing all kinds of gymnastic and acrobatic Pilates movements which is amazing to see but that's NOT what the originator, Joseph Pilates created it for. No, he was convinced way back in the 1940's that we were moving into an increasingly stressful world and that we all needed to devote far more attention to our fitness and wellbeing no matter what our age. And let's face it, we are all going to spend a lot more time being older rather than younger! Youth is fleeting and once we get past our thirties the wear and tear of an ageing body begins to take it's toll. And that's nothing to get worried about, it's just life, so what can we do?
