FEMALE ATHLETE TRIAD
The female athlete triad is a medical condition observed in physically active females involving three components:
1) low energy availability with or without disordered eating
2) menstrual dysfunction
3) low bone density.
In the healthy athlete, an optimal balance between energy availability, bone health, and menstrual function exists. Optimal energy availabil-ity results when dietary energy intake minus exercise energy expenditure leaves adequate energy for remaining body functions. Low energy availability is associated with hypothalamic dysfunction and, subsequently, will negatively affect menstrual function and bone health. These components are interrelated.

Consequences of these clinical conditions may not be reversible, so prevention, early diagnosis, and intervention are critical.
The athletes who engage in sports in which a low body weight and lean physique are desired (eg, dancers, gymnasts, and runners) are at the greatest risk of female athlete triad. The International Olympic Committee proposed changing the name from female athlete triad to Relative Energy Deficiency in Sports (RED-S) because of the complex interrelations of these components and in view of the fact that male athletes also may be affected .

" DON'T DIET! MAKE A PROMISE TO EAT SMART THIS YEAR!"

Diet should not be a food fad followed whenever your weighing scale tips more to the right or when your dress feels tighter.

Diet is not about eating soups and salads or starving

And if your diet is not suitable to be eaten everyday for the entire year, then it is not going to work.

STOP DIETING! EAT HEALTHY AND SMART THROUGH OUT THE YEAR!

After decades of Maggie meals, we have finally found that it is harmful for health.

All packaged foods are loaded with chemicals in the form of preservatives, food colors, flavor enhancers...And it is time for us to consciously reduce the intake of packaged food.

We worry so much about plastic polluting the environment. The packaged food does more damage to our body than what plastic does to our environment.

So "SAY NO TO PACKAGED FOOD". Eat fresh home cooked meals to stay healthy

According to new research in the October 2010 American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Breakfast is good for your heart too.

The study found that people who skipped breakfast throughout childhood and as adults had higher “bad” LDL and total cholesterol than lifelong breakfast eaters.

Plus, eating breakfast has also been shown to improve concentration and mood.

Eating a morning meal is a healthy habit. Research shows that regular breakfast eaters tend to be leaner and dieters are more successful at losing weight—and keeping it off—when they eat breakfast.
