🔹 Vitamin B12 will benefit your body in various ways, such as by boosting your energy, improving your memory and helping prevent heart disease.
🔹 B12 has many roles in your body. It supports the normal function of your nerve cells and is needed for red blood cell formation and DNA synthesis.
🔹 40 % of the of the population has a deficiency in B12, which causes an extreme case of lethargy
🔹 If you are tired all of the time try consuming more B12 from natural food sources
🔹 When healthy food burns a hole in our wallets while fast food burgers cost less than a cup of soda
.
🔹 This is the reason why, for the first time in human history, there are more overweight people walking the earth than underweight. How did this happen you might ask? Well for one, our planted landmass in the United States is largely taken up by wheat, corn and soy production. We eat much of these subsidized crops, but also a lot of it is refined into oils and sugar that is then fed to cows (which also get a hefty subsidy.)
.
🔹 5% of the planted landmass in the United States is dedicated to growing vegetables, which is perhaps one reason why they’re relatively so expensive! 90% of Americans do not consume enough of them, according to the CDC, and may explain why the same proportion is deficient in at least one vitamin or mineral.

🔹 When you consider the research showing how one large daily salad might actually prevent brain aging, it becomes evident that society seems to want youthful, high performance brains to be a privilege of the upper class. Maybe that’s it’s way of maintaining the status quo. But I think we can change that. What do you think?
🍔Burn a Big Mac🍔
.
🔹 Just using a Big Mac here because it can be a common indulgence. This can be applicable for anything with the same number of calories
.
🔹 How long would it take you to eat one? Like 3 minutes? Well look how long it’ll take to burn it off after – That’s why if you’re using cardio to erase a bad diet you’ll lose. That workout is supposed to build on your caloric DEFICIT, not minimize the “damage” – you’ll still be in a surplus and gain weight.
.
🔹 It’s totally fine to eat what you want. You can eat Big Macs and still lose weight. You can enjoy your favourite foods. You’ll just have to sacrifice those calories in something else later. No big deal. The important thing is that you’ve got a plan for after your indulgences
.
🔹 Note that the times are estimates based on a 135 lb woman – it will vary SLIGHTLY if you are lighter or heavier
.
🔹 Take home msg is to not spend hours and hours doing cardio thinking that you can eat as much as you want. Cardio can help but it’s definitely not the solution
.
🔹 Thanks for reading and share with someone who only focuses on cardio
🔹 Guessing your serving sizes can work if you’re not serious about trying to lose or gain weight.
🔹 But if you DO want to drop some weight, measuring your portions and actually knowing how much food is going in your body is pretty important.
🔹 Especially if you are new to seriously transforming your body so that you can learn more about portion sizes.
🔹 Once you achieve your fitness goals, you can relax on the precision because you’ll know more about what to look for and what mistakes to avoid.
🔹 I’m not telling you to measure each and every single thing you eat.
🔹Just be aware that different amounts of food will have a different calorie content, that’s all..
🔹 Simple things such as peanut butter, oils and nuts are very dense in calories and can add up quickly so they are the things you want to watch out for. Small amounts add up overtime, and if you’re eating 500-1000 calories more than you thought in a week, you’ll wonder why you aren’t gaining any progress.
