When I’m traveling, I even work out in the room using body weight for resistance if I don’t have access to a gym.Any amount of exercise you can do will be beneficial, but exercising more vigorously (for example, running rather than walking) will bring a benefit. I try to mix it up, that way you don’t get bored and you are sure to focus on different sets of muscles on different days. One day I might jog or do cardio, the next day I might do weight lifting where I might focus on my arms or legs, and the following day I might play tennis. I have been athletic all my life and I exercise and play sports a lot today. What is your exercise program like? What’s the most effective way to exercise?Ī: For early humans, exercise was a way of life. I also make an attempt to eat dinner early in the evening, and not eat late at night, so I get the longest possible overnight fast – more time in the catabolic phase.

I eat when I feel like eating, when I’m truly hungry, and that is not necessarily at the same times every day – if I do a tough workout one afternoon, I will probably get hungry earlier the next morning than if I didn’t exercise. Snacking is typically recreational eating, and that means excess calories you did not need. If we eat too often, we miss out on these beneficial processes. When the body is not digesting food it is most effectively detoxifying and healing. Spending more time in the non-fed state activates biological processes that help to prevent cancer and promote longevity.

If I am hungry I eat a whole meal, regardless of the time of day. I rarely eat in restaurants as that is too time consuming, and I am generally too busy to waste 2 hours to eat a meal.Ī: Rarely. I’ll sometimes have some raw oat cereal such as unsweetened familia with me, and purchase some unsweetened almond or hemp on the road, and I add it to the cereal in cup in the room the night before, so it softens. I carry nuts and seeds with me in my carry bag, as well as a spoon and plastic knife to eat mangos on the road. If I am on the road, I will plan in advance I’ll either find the nearest Whole Foods Market and get a big salad with beans on top or look for another market with salad items, fresh and frozen fruits and vegetables (such as frozen artichoke hearts). I also will have one fresh fruit or a fruit-based dessert, like a berry sorbet. For dinner, often I will start with raw veggies and a healthy dip, followed by a cooked vegetable-based main dish made with beans or tempeh, wok greens, onions and mushrooms served with a nut-based cream sauce. I either will top the salad with some beans or have a vegetable bean soup on the side. Note that the fat from the nuts and seeds are important when taking the supplements to facilitate absorption.įor lunch, I have a huge salad with tomatoes, raw onions and one of my dressings made from nuts and seeds. I usually take my vegan DHA+EPA Purity supplement along with my other supplements then, too.

Most days, it’s steel-cut oats with berries, seeds and walnuts.
