RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Knowing about blood sugar is not just for diabetics. To lose body fat/stay lean we should too. Eating only 1-2/day or not eating for over 4hrs our blood sugars plummet. When we eat again they spike. This up & down, causes increased levels of the body fat producing hormone cortisol. A SMALL meal/snack every 2.5-3hrs keeps our blood sugar levels stable, and our metabolism (how fast we burn cal) fast.
