Nutrition do’s and don’ts that you ALREADY KNOW!


Don’t

· Indulge in fats and salts - avoid these.

· Skip meals – it’ll mess with your glycogen stores.

· Stuff yourself. You’ll get constipated. Oy!

· Eat too much of one food – especially dairy. You will be flatulent and crapulent.

· Overdo caffeine and alcohol. As diuretics, they’ll steal your water. You’ll screw the pooch.

· Eat too much gassy foods (please!). It’ll suck for you and me. If you don’t heed this warning, your runs will be, well, the runs.

Do

· Eat a variety of carbs - rice, pasta, bread, cereal, bagels, fruits

· Keep meals and snack times regular. Your colon will appreciate this. If your meals are regular, you will be too!

· Try carb supplements like GNC and Gatorade

· Simplify. It may be easier to take a multivitamin instead of a medicine cabinet fill of pills. Add this to your diet. And make sure those pills are legal.

· Forget counting calories. ¼ plate is protein, the rest with veggies and bread.

· Have a few healthy snacks during the day.

· Be a vegetarian once a week. This will expose you to healthy foods, fortify you with nutrients and blow out your beef-filled colon.
