How Did This Happen?

The increase of technology and packaged foods; our dependence on motor transportation rather than walking; our sedentary lifestyles; and our busy schedules that leave us little time to prepare healthy meals or exercise have led us down a morbid path. Gaining weight and getting sick is easier than ever. Our busy lifestyles don't support the healthy choices that can help prevent the development of problems in  later years. Today, many people are not getting what doctors consider essentials for optimal health in terms of diet, exercise or lifestyle habits. 

Factors That Impact Health

  • Fast food diets that are high in fat and low in nutrients.
  • Overly-processed, convenience foods.
  • Sedentary lifestyle.
  • Pollution.
  • Stress.
  • Certain medications.
  • Lack of dietary fibre from fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
  • Not enough healthy sources of protein in our diets
  • Healthy muscle and bone.
  • Lack of proper rest.

The Keys to Wellness
Every day we search for ways to feel better; this makes our days more enjoyable for ourselves as well as those around us. The recipe for success is a balanced diet combined with sufficient water intake, along with exercise.

Current Approaches to Weight Management
In an attempt to lose weight individuals have tried weight loss clubs, meal replacements/diets, gyms and health clubs, leading personal trainers and life coaches.

A Wellness Coach helps people become more conscious of their health, nutrition and well being by carrying out a free Wellness Evaluation. These steps are:
 Educate and Review
This step is achieved by carrying out a Body and Nutrition Evaluation, followed by some advice on how to resolve any challenges. Body Evaluation  is a series of measurements to determine such things as your fat %, the level of lean body mass,  metabolic rate and protein requirements. Using a body fat testing machine and lean protein indicator.		 wellness-bodyfat testing
The Power of Protein
Based on evidence from numerous studies, the FDA states that 25 grams of soy protein daily in a diet that is also low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease.
Protein helps build and maintain strong muscles. Try to consume 75 to 100 grams of protein each day. Eating
protein at every meal also helps control hunger. The best protein-rich foods are those that are low in fat, such as
high-protein breakfast shakes, chicken or turkey breast, egg whites, fish and shellfish, very lean cuts of red meat
and low-fat or non-fat dairy products. Limit high-fat protein foods such as cheese, most red meat cuts, sausages and full-fat dairy products. Protein helps prevent muscle and bone breakdown.  Protein helps control hunger and is essential for energy. ShapeWorks…is a unique weight management programme based around the concept of personalised protein...  Video Testimonials  Are you getting the right protein intake? Contact us

What is Wellness?

“ The condition of good physical and mental health, especially when maintained by proper diet, exercise and habits.”–American Heritage Dictionary

“Wellness is about waking up every morning and having enough time, energy and freedom to live the life you want.”

The Keys to Optimum Wellness

1 – Balance Your Diet

You need to get enough of the right foods including colourful fruits and vegetables, protein, good carbohydrates and just enough good fats for the taste you want. You also need vitamins, minerals and fibre from dietary supplements to provide the nutrition missing from your diet that your cells need for good health.


2 – Exercise Regularly

Regular exercise can help you feel and look your best. Exercise conditions your heart and relieves stress and makes it easier to achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.


3 – Drink Lots of Water

Your body is about two-thirds water. In an average day, you lose at least one pint of water even without excessive sweating. To feel your best, you should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day.
