4 Common Nutritional Mistakes Of Arm Toning Women

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

There is a lot of controversy on the best way to tone arms. Somehow, even the experts have come up with different ways for getting results. Some of these ways are valid, some are not.

And there is a grain of truth to this because the authorities' sources of information are never black and white.

The source is research studies. You might think that research is like math, one plus one equals two. Unfortunately, research is almost never clear cut like this. It's usually open to interpretation from many angles.

So today I plan on clearing up some of the confusion. Here are 4 things to avoid when trying to tone up your arms:

1. Consuming more than 3 grams of fish oil a day. I remember reading an article by a well known fitness expert in which he recommended an intake of 20-30 grams of fish oil for accelerated fat loss. You should NEVER over supplement with fish oil. The excess omega-3 can induce atherosclerosis.

2. Not keeping the nuts and nut butters in the refrigerator. Keep the peanut butter in a warm environment and you could get aspergillus poisoning. So make sure you store all nuts and legumes in a cool place. A single case of poisoning will set back your toned arms goal.

3. Having any amount of partially hydrogenated oils. The research at Harvard is conclusive: trans fats kill, period. I recommend a zero trans fat policy-without exception. If you see the words "partially hydrogenated", "trans fat", or "vegetable shortening", throw it away.

4. Staying away from plant sources of saturated fat. Animal fat is what does harm, but plant fat can do a body good. Coconut is a great example of a saturated plant fat that is very healthy for the female body.

There is a lot of information out there on how to tone arms. And even the best of authorities can give the wrong information since science is never clear cut. The facts are never clearly defined in most cases. The key, however, is to keep on moving forward despite all the small details.

One more thing: remember to take action on this information now and not later. If you wait too long, you will forget the new advice. - 17268
