Which type of sports is best for you?

As if is it was not hard enough already to integrate sports into our routine, there are also the endless types of exercise, each claiming to be superior than the other, imposing on us one more choice to make: which sports is best for me?

Should we do cardio (e.g. jogging, aerobics) in order to stay in shape? Or is it better to train our muscles, that allegedly burn more calories even when in rest? Or forget all that and do yoga for flexibility and endurance instead?

Being a healthy brand, we at Coppa della Mage tried to find the answers for you. Read on.

Make breakfast easy

It is easy to slip into the habit of skipping breakfast: getting up a bit later than planned is the usual reason for not having time to sit down, even for only 10 minutes. It is much quicker to grab a snack and eat it on your way to work, but it is not a good idea, if you want to stay healthy and in a good shape.

Knowing however, that it takes time we should find smarter ways to have a quick and easy preparation of your first meal for the day. Here Coppa della Maga comes really handy: just leave overnight a tub in the fridge and in the morning, you will have a wonderful mousse to mix with whatever you fancy.

Vitamins and minerals are crucial for the proper functioning of our body. That is why we often reach out to supplements to complement our diet.

Is sugar good or bad?

With all the bad publicity about sugar, is it really that horrible at the end?

Scare tactics should never be used as motivational tool. We much rather believe in the power of knowledge and think that if people are better informed, they would always make the right decision. That is why, we will not get into all the statistics that reveal the relationship between sugar and a series of the most severe diseases, but will rather give you a few simple facts about sugar:

Brings 0 nutrients, hence it is not needed in our diet.
Interferes with the hormones that regulate hunger and satiety.
Harms metabolism, leading to increase in insulin and fat storage.
It is addictive (by the release of dopamine when we consume it).
