What protects against weight gain and is essential for maintaining weight loss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Weight: The short answer is the quality of food that you eat.Focus on low glycemic(<40) index foods, drink plenty of water, eat 5 times a day, every 3 hours.A consistent exercise program is very helpful also.Lastly, get your hormone levels(thyroid, testosterone ) checked to see if these need to be corrected.
