Adriana Carulla, Wong’s nutritionist, tells us that Health It is determined with the balance between good nutrition and physical activity.

“We are integral beings and the impact of our thoughts, our feelings, our attitude and the way we manage emotions determines our health,” says the specialist.

Carulla offers some recommendations:

1. Take care of your diet

Remember that foods are vehicles of nutrients and you should choose those that provide you with the greatest number of benefits such as fruits, vegetables, beans, seeds, whole grains, lean proteins, dairy products, eggs, vegetable fats and water.

2. Play sports

The physiological, emotional and social benefits that exercise brings you have a greater impact on your health than weight loss. Playing sports makes you feel good.

As long as you are good on the inside, your body will reflect it on the outside. Begin to take a look inside yourself, control negative thoughts and work on positive ones: accept yourself, value yourself, respect yourself and seek your inner peace.
