Breast, Thigh or Drumstick? When it comes to chicken, the question is always the same: which one should you choose for your diet? The truth is that there is no right or wrong! What matters is choosing the cut that fits your goals and that can be calculated within your diet.

Let's understand the differences and find out which one is ideal for you!

👉 Chicken Breast: The Favorite or the Hated?
With 31g of protein and 165 calories, chicken breast is a favorite among those who want to lose weight or gain muscle mass. It is lean, high in protein and low in fat. However, it can be "hated" by many, since, if not prepared well, it can become dry.

👉 Thighs: The tasty middle ground!
With 24g of protein and 209 calories, the thigh has more fat, which guarantees more flavor and juiciness. It can be an excellent option to vary the breast, but should be consumed in moderation if the goal is to lose weight.

👉 Coxa: The pleasure of flavor!
With 23g of protein and 215 calories, the thigh has more calories and less protein, but makes up for it with its strong flavor and soft texture. Ideal for a moment of pleasure, but in moderation, if your goal is to lose weight.

Which one to choose?
The answer will depend on your goal! If you are looking to lose weight, chicken breast may be the best option, but thighs and drumsticks can also be included, as long as they are calculated in the diet.

💡The secret is to understand the nutritional differences and customize your diet to achieve the best results. A well-designed diet is varied and balanced!

What if your transformation started today? I have to show you Andrea’s progress, she’s lost 23 kilos with my method, and honestly, the difference in her photo is incredible. ❤

What makes me even happier is that she didn’t just lose the weight… she actually learnt how to eat in a way that feels good, how to balance her portions and how to keep the results without slipping back into old patterns. That’s the real win.

Have a look at her transformation, it’s inspiring.

Have you ever noticed how much your diet shows up in your skin? One of the first things my patients tell me when they improve their eating habits is that their skin looks brighter, clearer and more radiant, almost as if it’s had a little reset.

Healthy skin really does start from the inside out.
Nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich foods help reduce breakouts, balance oil production and support that natural glow.
And when your gut is functioning well and your blood sugar is steadier, irritation tends to settle, leaving the skin smoother and more even. 🌿

How about you, how is your skin at the moment?

Who else loves bananas? 🍌They’re packed with nutrients like potassium, magnesium, and vitamin B6 and they’re tasty, practical, and affordable. Here at home, we eat them almost every day!

Have you ever noticed how bananas change as they ripen?
Check this out:

Green → Yellow → Brown

As they ripen:
- Resistant starch decreases, making them easier to digest
- They get sweeter as the starch turns into sugar
- Digestion becomes faster, which can lead to a glucose spike
- Some micronutrients drop, but antioxidants increase

And yes, they’re a great source of prebiotics!

👉How to use each stage:
Green: Ideal for green banana biomass, great in soups, smoothies, and juices to help keep you full.
Almost ripe: Perfect sliced into fruit salads or paired with yogurt.
Ripe: Great for smoothies, oatmeal, or to naturally sweeten recipes.
Very ripe: Amazing for pancakes, cakes, or a cinnamon purée.
Overripe: Best for banana bread or brownies, you can reduce added sugar thanks to their natural sweetness.

Storage tips:
To speed up ripening → brown paper bag.
To make them last longer → store in the fridge (the peel darkens, but the fruit stays fresh).

So tell me: which stage do you prefer? 🍌

How much water should you actually be drinking each day? It’s something we all know is important, but most people still fall short without realising it. Let’s work it out together:

- If you don’t struggle with constipation: weight x 30 = daily water intake (ml)
- If you do experience constipation: weight x 35 = daily water intake (ml)

🔢 For example: if you weigh 70 kg and don’t have constipation,
70 x 30 = 2100 ml (2.1 litres) per day.

So tell me: are you hitting your daily water goal, or is there room for improvement? 💦👇

Why does motivation disappear so quickly? Often, it’s not about willpower. It’s your body, and your routine, quietly showing that something needs attention.

☀️ Too little sunlight
Low sun exposure reduces vitamin D, which supports mood, energy, and immunity.

🥩 Low protein and healthy fats
These help keep you full, stabilise hormones, and support focus throughout the day.

🔥 Silent inflammation
When the body is inflamed, energy is redirected, leaving you tired and unmotivated.

🌾 Low fibre intake
Fibre balances blood sugar, supports gut health, and helps maintain steady energy.

🎯 Lack of clear goals
Without direction, even small tasks feel heavier.

🍽️ Irregular meal times
Eating at random times affects hunger, mood, and productivity.

💊 Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
Low B12, vitamin D, or magnesium can impact energy and your nervous system.

📱 Too much screen time
It disrupts sleep, raises stress levels, and affects concentration.

🍬 Blood sugar spikes
The crash that follows brings fatigue, irritability, and low motivation.

Motivation isn’t just about discipline, it’s a mix of biology, habits, and clarity.

Did you know that 8 out of 10 women have some level of hormonal imbalance, and many do not even realise it? Mood swings, intense PMS, constant fatigue, abdominal weight gain, adult acne, and trouble sleeping are not normal.

🚨 These are signs that your body is asking for balance.

💡Your endocrine system controls everything, including energy, mood, metabolism, skin, and reproductive health.
The good news is that it is possible to reverse these symptoms with the right diet and care, without expensive or invasive treatments.

Your body is always speaking to you, you just need to learn how to listen.

💬 Do any of these signs sound familiar to you? Tell me in the comments.

Have you ever noticed how your body reacts when it's overloaded? Cortisol is the hormone that keeps you alert and makes your body function when it needs energy. The problem isn't its existence, it's when it's constantly high.

🚨 At this point, the body enters a constant state of alert and begins sending signals that something is wrong. This affects appetite, sleep, mood, and even the ability to lose fat.

And do you know where this weighs even more heavily?
In terms of food. 🍽️

When cortisol levels rise too high, the body demands quick energy, increases insulin, becomes more prone to inflammation, and slows down metabolism. It's as if the body is trying to protect itself... but ends up making you more unbalanced.

The good news is that you can signal safety to your body through food.
And that changes a lot of things.

What helps regulate cortisol:
🌿 Prioritize protein in every meal
🥗 Include real carbohydrates on your plate (sweet potatoes, fruits, oats, quinoa)
🥑 Use healthy fats to stabilize energy (avocado, olive oil, nuts)
⏱️ Avoid long periods without eating
☕ Reduce caffeine, especially on an empty stomach
🌰 Include foods rich in magnesium (spinach, seeds, cocoa)
🫚 Eat more natural anti-inflammatories (turmeric, ginger, berries)

When cortisol begins to regulate, you'll notice it in practice: hunger subsides, energy increases, sleep improves, and metabolism responds much better.
