When we hear the word “diet”, we usually think of a restrictive eating regime, with some element of punishment to it, and a reduced calorie intake, which might result in an unsufficient energy supply. As a consequence, our body might lack the energy to manage everyday activities and, in case the supply of one or more essential nutrients is significantly reduced, our overall health might be compromised.
The Long Life Formula dietary plan includes 5 meals per day – the three traditional “main” meals are indeed integrated by a mid-morning and a mid-afternoon snack.
The meals include all macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins and lipids), contain the right amount of fibres and liquids and provide an adequate supply of micronutrients and trace elements.
Even the order in which the different nutrients should be consumed has been designed to be as functional as possible to your body: it gives you a sense of satiety even with a low calorie intake, aids your digestion and prevents the discomforts that are usually related to an incorrect diet.
Unlike many other strict diets we embark on in the vain hope of losing some extra kilos, the Long Life Formula dietary plan reactivates our metabolism, promotes weight loss (as necessary) and improves your body composition by increasing your lean mass and reducing your fat mass.
Moreover, it gives you a feeling of well-being, lightness and satiety.
Do you want to try out a menu that is inspired by our Long Life Formula method?
We would like to share three recipes that you can prepare at home; each of them is representative of our nutritional philosophy, which finds its full realisation in our five-meal dietary plan.
The three recipes are associated to their main nutrient and, when incorporated within the same meal, they should be served in the following order:
- Fibres: Courgette flan
- Proteins: Fresh mackerel stew with mussels and baby spinach
- Carbohydrates: Creamy barley risotto with brunoise of spring vegetables
