Diet or Exercise - What's More Important?

by Jorge Cruise

Side note: as a Personal Wellness Coach this is what I teach my clients

"Fitness is important, but pay attention to your diet too. What you eat is 80% of your health, so try to eat no more than 15 grams of sugar and 6 servings of carbs a day.

Why? Some researchers now say that diet – not exercise – is the key to losing weight. A Loyola University Health System study compared African American women in Chicago with women in rural Nigeria, and it found that the Windy City women weighed an average of 184 pounds – 57 pounds more than their Nigerian counterparts. The researchers had predicted that the thinner Nigerian women burned more calories because they were more physically active, but they were wrong! They found that the two groups actually burn the same amount of calories a day, suggesting that their physical activity levels are equal.

So why are Nigerian women slimmer? Because Nigerian women eat foods high in fiber and carbs and low in fat and animal protein. In contrast, almost 50% of a Chicago woman’s diet is comprised of fat. Deep dish pizza may taste great, but it wreaks havoc on your waistline. So ditch the fatty, processed foods – it’s critical to your weight-loss goals."
