March 2011 Nutrition Challenge

No refined carbs for this month's challenge ...

It’s time for the monthly nutrition challenge … here’s the concept, in case it’s your first one:

For a week out of every month, we’ll announce a nutrition ‘challenge’. Over the next six months, we’ll touch on a ‘pilar’ of good eating for a week out of every month … and if you take every challenge, after six months, you’ll have build a foundation of healthy eating.

Here are the last two month’s challenges in case you missed them:

January 2011 Nutrition Challenge

February 2011 Nutrition Challenge

And for this month:

Limit your intake of refined carbohydrate to one serving per day

Notes:

  • The definition of refined carbohydrate, from about.com: “Refined carbohydrates are produced when whole plants which are high in carbohydrates are processed in a way to strip out everything but the highly digestible carbohydrate (starch or sugar).”
  • Refined carbohydrates include: Anything we call “sugar” including granulated sugar and high fructose corn syrup; grains that have been made “white” by stripping the germ and/or bran from the grain, including white flour, white rice, white pasta, and couscous; anything called “starch” – corn starch, modified food starch, etc.’; grains that have been turned into flakes, puffs, shreds, etc.

Good luck!

  1. This one will be easy. I eat a diet modified on Atkins, other low carb diets, etc.

    Thanks for the articles and videos…my swing still needs help!

    Which AC/DC tune do you use for the swing video on You Tube?

    Appreciate all you do.

    B.

    1. Nice – good luck!

      I believe ‘Black Ice’ is the album I’ve gotten several of those AC/DC songs from .. check it out.

      Thanks for the feedback!
