With Breakfast
Fitness Tip of the Month - Beach
Body Newsletter #24
We’ve all heard about the importance that
breakfast plays in our diet. It’s often referred to as “the most

ultramarathon.
All that running takes a lot of energy, so Taylor,
37, sticks to a fairly strict diet.
"Obviously I need a lot of carbs, so I focus on
cereals and pasta," the Austin attorney said. He also tries to eat chicken,
beef or another source of meat protein every day.

Water is a Nutrient Too! Are You Getting
Enough?
HealthNewsDigest.com Water is
classified as a nutrient, just like protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins and
minerals!
