Inspired to Perspire

I'm a college senior working on being as healthy as I can be. My fitness journey has the added obstacle of chronic illness but I try not to let that stop me! I'm vegetarian and try to limit my animal product usage as much as I can. Am also gluten intolerant so lots of good gluten free recipes up in here! Ask away :)

Advice Please

I have some pretty bad knees from years of netball and being overweight so sometimes they get quite sore if i have done a lot of impact related exercises. This is where i am currently at they hurt but i also want to go for a run.. i know i’m going to have a very tough PT session tomorrow so do i do the run or rest? 

[bohoveggies-blog]

Do you have any low impact options to still get a work out in? Like elliptical or swimming? If not, I'd say pain is an indication to rest!

Here’s the thing about nutrition science:

There is very little that is agreed upon.

I have my opinions about what an optimally healthy diet looks like. You have yours. That person over there has theirs. In the end, nutritional science is not conclusive.

You will find studies that tell you saturated fat is evil and studies that tell you saturated fat has been unnecessarily demonized. You will find highly educated nutrition and medical professionals who support almost any diet you name.

Like basically the only things that seem to be universally accepted by all nutritional professionals are that trans fats are bad and vegetables are good.

So for goodness sake, do your research, do your self experiments, educate yourself on why you eat the way you do. Understand how your body works.

But stop with this patronizing one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition.
