Nutrition and Weight Loss

To reduce overall body weight, a negative energy balance is necessary.Advising a client to reduce the number of calories he consumes is a key factor in producing a negative energy balance.It is a mistake to think that clients automatically will make healthful changes to their diet when they begin exercising.In fact, studies show that health behaviors such as exercise involvement and healthy eating tend to be unrelated,and many people continue unhealthy eating despite participation in an exercise program.
