Supportive Supper!


Here is an example of a great "Supportive Dinner". Supportive eating encourages taking in lean protein, complex carbohydrates and fibrous carbohydrates (vegetables) every 3 to 3 1/2 hours in an effort to stabilize blood sugar levels. Ideally, all three components will be of equal size. Doing this provides your body with energy and the material needed to build new, lean muscle tissue. It also puts the body in a hormonal state where it becomes much better at "releasing" body fat for fuel.

If you want to get lean, you HAVE to eat! The above meal is home-made lean turkey meatloaf, baked potato and mixed beans and carrotts. Pair this with a low sugar, low fat dessert and sugar-free beverage and you have one powerful meal. Bon Appetit!
