Day 20 The Refresh Program

Are you someone that doesn’t tolerate gluten well or have been diagnosed with an intolerance? In today’s episode we discuss the impact gluten has on the body and how high gluten products are heavily addictive.

Gluten Free tips

Don’t stop until you’re proud

A gluten-free diet is essential for anyone with coeliac disease or a severe gluten intolerance. It’s important to be careful when shopping because many items include gluten even if they don’t explicitly say so. Gluten is found in foods with wheat, rye, barley or oats. To avoid gluten, whole-food diets are best, featuring food such as vegetables, fruit, lean meats and natural dairy foods. Legumes and healthy fats are also gluten free, unless processed. It’s important to find the right balance for you. A little bit of gluten is fine, provided you don’t have a medical reason to avoid it.

Day 20 | The Refresh Program  - Be Fit Food

Be Fit Food as your NDIS Meal Provider can help whether your NDIS Plan is Self-Managed, Plan-Managed or an Agency-Managed. Our main goal is to help all Australians Eat Themselves Better. We believe food is the first medicine and our food choices can aid in prevention and management of lifestyle diseases.

We have one main goal at Be Fit Food: we want to help Australians to eat themselves better.  There’s no denying that Australia’s obesity rates are continuously on the rise and there is little education in place to show the public the effects of added sugar & sodium, high carb & large portioned diets can have not just on our weight, but on our general health & wellbeing.

The Be Fit Food Story | Be Fit Food

The Be Fit Food Story

The meals and snacks from Be Fit Food are designed to help your body burn stored body fat – by switching from using carbohydrates as the main energy source, to using body fat for fuel instead. This process is called Ketosis and Be Fit Food works by transitioning your body into this fat-burning state.

Lose Weight | Be Fit Food

Low energy seems to be a side effect of modern life, but do you know how important good nutrition is in helping manage your energy levels?

You might be aware that blood pressure is a measure commonly used by health professionals as one indicator of overall health – helping to understand what’s going on inside your body and how your health is tracking.

Lower Blood Pressure | Be Fit Food

Lower Blood Pressure

One of the biggest contributors to weight gain is eating larger meals than what our bodies need. When we ignore our hunger and satiety (fullness) signals and eat until we are overfull, we are simply consuming more calories than what we expend.

Educate Portion Control | Be Fit Food

Educate Portion Control

Your metabolism refers to complex chemical processes that your body goes through, to keep your body ticking along – things like effectively burning the food you eat for fuel or repairing damaged tissue. In terms of weight loss and management, your metabolism impacts how much energy your body burns at any one time.

Reset Your Metabolism | Be Fit Food

Reset Your Metabolism

Be Fit Food is designed to help you feel better through eating real-food. Weight loss is just one benefit, but other benefits of eating well include improved mental health and gut health. 

Improve Health and Wellbeing | Be Fit Food

Did you know that having less than seven hours of sleep each night has been linked with weight gain? So often we ignore the importance of sleep – focusing on the deadline we need to hit, or the TV show we have to finish. Here’s why you should start paying attention to your sleep patterns!

Enhance Sleep Quality | Be Fit Food

Be Fit Food is about more than healthy meals...we’re also about giving you the tools and education that you need to help develop healthier (and long-lasting!) habits.  Healthier habits can be learned by simply being consistent over time, and while this is much easier said than done for most of us (!), Be Fit Food are here to help.

Develop Healthy Eating Habits | Be Fit Food

Develop Healthy Eating Habits

All Be Fit Food meals and programs have been scientifically designed by a Doctor and Dietitian, with a real food approach for weight loss and healthy low carb living.  Every meal is based on the principals of a low carb diet (approximately 50-70g per day as supported by evidence-based science), containing as many plant-based ingredients as possible from all five food groups.

With intermittent fasting it isn’t so about what you eat, but when you eat it. It’s less of a diet and more of a controlled eating pattern that can help you lose weight and get fit.

“I have just completed the 2 week challenge which I really enjoyed. The food was tasty and using the journal helped keep me on track. It’s a great way to reset habits and learn about nutrition and portion control. I was able to maintain my muscle mass while losing 5.4kgs, dropping my visceral fat rating by 1.5 and dropping 2.6% of body fat. A great start to feeling fitter and healthier.” SG

‟The food is delicious, which is so rare with frozen meal delivery. I would genuinely enjoy eating these meals day to day, not just to lose weight! The program is working well for me. I've lost 4kg in 2 weeks which I've never gotten close to with any other program. I love it!” REBECCA

‟This is such a great program. I feel so much better in myself and the food is amazing. My state of mind since being on Be Fit Food has just lifted and is so great having routine with food and so much support whilst on my weight loss journey...which is doing better than anything I've ever tried in such short time.” BROOKE
