Nutrition Ignition - Christmas is only One Day

 

David Bryant, Sports Dietitian, Catalyst Dietitian

 

It’s the time of year when I am often asked by clients about how to keep training on track over the break, and how to prevent the ‘Christmas bulge.’

On diet, the top questions I receive are:

“What should or shouldn’t I eat at Christmas?”

“Should I eat a low carb diet at Christmas?”
