1. Energy in the context of food
The characteristic feature of modern society is that we live in a rush. We pursue a career, personal development, mental development. To achieve satisfaction, we often have to sacrifice a lot of things, especially time. Time scarcity syndrome seems to be an integral part of life. It's increasingly associated with poor quality of food. We want to eat fast, but does fast food mean good? Unfortunately, more and more often than not, it's one of the main factors responsible for a lack of energy.2. Your body's energy needs how to calculate them
The fact that we need food to have energy in our daily lives is clear, but do we all need it the same? Of course, no. The amount of food and the amount of energy supplied with food should be selected individually, taking into account the age, height, gender, and physical activity level of the person. How do we determine our energy needs?3. A pattern on PPM for a man
PPM [kcal] = 88, 362 + [13, 397 × M (kg)] + [4, 799 × W (cm)] − [5, 677 × L (years)].4. A pattern on PPM for a woman
PPM [kcal] = 447, 593 + [9, 247 × M (kg) ] + [3, 098 × W (cm) ] − [4, 33 × L (year) ] M current total body weight expressed in kg, W increase expressed in cm, L age expressed in years. Then calculate your total body energy consumption (CPM), which is the amount of energy you need for your daily activity, e.g. whether you are going to exercise.5. Lack of energy or it could be a symptom of illness
Can a lack of energy be a symptom of a disease? Yes. There are many diseases that are just a sign of energy. These include, among others, anemia, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes, blood pressure problems, heart failure problems, depression, thyroid disease, or even bowel disease. As we can see, there are many of these diseases, but in order to be able to recognize them as the main cause of energy deficiency, it's worth paying attention to the way we live. Do we have time for ourselves to rest, recover, and most importantly, do we have the time to consume meals consciously to provide all the necessary nutrients.
