My experience with omega-3

The first time I took a test for fatty acid levels in my body 10 years ago, I was, to put it mildly, “shocked” by the result: an imbalance in favor of omega-6. And this was despite the fact that I always ate fish and seafood! In general, after that I started consuming a balance oil with polyphenols and high-quality omega-3. I seriously focused on my nutrition, sleep routine, and physical activity. The results came already in the first year: — the quality of my skin and nails improved; — my weight normalized (–25 kg); 💃 — my cravings for sweets decreased; — I gained energy and many other pleasant changes. 😀 Last year, due to a number of circumstances (excuses about lack of time, etc.), I completely stopped taking omega-3 and…

The power of omega-3

It seems that everyone has heard about the benefits of omega-3, right? 😊 But many people just never quite get around to starting to take this important product. That is why I want to remind you that taking care of your body is an expression of self-love. ❤️ Especially now, during the cold season, when viruses become more active, the weather changes, and there is less sunlight. All of this increases the overall level of stress and fatigue, and the body responds with an intensification of inflammatory processes in our body. Let small healthy habits help you support yourself every day. ❤️ Did you know that when our body needs a little more care, omega-3 provides exactly that? ❤️ So…

Movement is life!

How often we hear this phrase. And we even understand that it sounds logical. And at the same time, during consultations with my clients, I often hear in response: “I don’t have time for sports” or “I don’t like going for walks,” and so on. Here, my task as a healthy lifestyle mentor is to offer my client a choice of alternative ways of that very movement. I believe that activity, movement should always be personalized and approached with positivity! If you like dancing, great, dance every day! Dance is movement, plasticity, concentration, liberation of the body and mind, it is a powerful tool for recovery both physical and…

The Plate Method

The modern approach to nutrition is built not on counting every calorie, but on understanding the quality of products and their impact on satiety and energy. The primary tool here is the "plate method." Half of every meal should consist of vegetables and greens: they provide volume and fiber, which slows down the absorption of sugars. A quarter of the plate is dedicated to high-quality protein (meat, fish, eggs, legumes) — this is the building block and the main factor for long-lasting satiety. The remaining quarter consists of complex carbohydrates (buckwheat, brown rice, whole-grain bread), which provide stable energy without sharp spikes in blood sugar. This balance helps avoid the "insulin roller coaster" and the urge to snack on sweets an hour after eating.

Health and Golf. What’s the Connection?

Golf is not just an engaging and strategic game played with a small ball. It’s also an excellent opportunity to improve both your physical and mental health. How? 😮 Let me tell you more 😀 Sometimes I hear that golf is "expensive, complicated, and I have no one to play with," etc. As a health coach and a golfer, I can confidently confirm that this game offers a whole range of benefits for both physical and mental well-being! During a full round of golf (18 holes), a golfer: burns an average of 2,000–2,500 calories; walks between 8 and 12 kilometers; focuses and plans the strategy for every single shot; socializes and makes new connections. Thus, golf is not just a game or an active lifestyle. It is a hobby...

Skipping Meals 

The question of whether to skip breakfast or dinner for weight loss is one of the most debated topics in modern nutrition. For a long time, breakfast was considered a mandatory meal to "kickstart" the metabolism. However, modern research shows that for weight loss, the decisive factor is not the timing of meals, but the total daily caloric intake and the overall quality of the diet. Skipping breakfast or dinner can be an effective tool if it helps a person maintain a calorie deficit without unnecessary stress or intense hunger. Skipping breakfast is often practiced as part of intermittent fasting (the 16/8 method). For many, this is a comfortable way to reduce energy consumption, as appetite in the morning...
