Our event begins at 10:30 am, on the 2nd floor of Koffler House, 569 Spadina Ave.
What is the secret to weight loss? Just eat less and move more? Is breakfast the most important meal of the day? Are long workouts more effective than short ones? Does eating fat make you fat (or unhealthy)? This Sunday our featured speaker, Gaya Navaratnam, will take a science-based look into these and other long-held beliefs in the field of fitness.
You’ll also get insight into these controversial issues:
- Are Low-fat, Vegetarian/Vegan and Gluten-free diets the
healthiest? - Should you eat many small meals throughout the day? Or Is
skipping meals ok? - Are Ketogenic and Low-carbohydrate diets just fads?
- Strength training: will it make you (especially women) bulky?
- Should you do Sit ups, Crunches, Planks for good looking abs?
- Are Saturated Fats bad for us?
- Are Carbohydrates the preferred fuel of the body and brain?
- Are Fruits good for us?
If you’ve ever tried to lose weight and weren’t successful or you’re struggling with your health (diabetes, high blood pressure) or you’d just like to learn about your body and what’s best for it, this talk is for you.
