Nutrition Philosophy
In order to maximize performance and recovery, accomplish optimal energy levels, and maintain ideal body composition, nutrition and physical activity must be closely linked. It is impossible to find success in your sport without a nutrition strategy. Well-conditioned bodies cannot be created by just spending many hours in the gym or playing sport. A nutrition strategy is critical, not only to ensure an optimal flow of energy and fluid into the muscles, but also for improving power, sustaining concentration, optimizing work outs, and maintaining ideal body composition.

Well nourished bodies recover quicker from muscle soreness and derive more benefits from their strenuous, intense and lighter workouts. A failure to consider nutrition as an integral component of everyday routine will increase health risks and result in poor improvement rates. There is a great deal of scientific information on the relationship between good nutrition and physical activity, however, the overwhelming amount of misinformation makes it difficult for one to know how to design an effective nutrition strategy. As a sports nutritionist, I design key nutrition strategies that ensure individual nutrition needs are met and simultaneously provide and sustain optimal energy to compliment individual training needs. The ultimate result is fueling and maintaining elite athlete status in an appropriate and healthy manner.

HIGH PRAISE FOR ILANA
From: Joe Green To: 'Ilana Katz ' Subject: Thank You Importance: High
Ilana, This week is my 52nd week working with you as my dietitian. It doesn't seem that long but time flies when good things happen. With your help and guidance I have lost close to 50 lbs. Just this past week I had my periodic blood test performed by my physician and my total Cholesterol level is 129. My lowest level in so many years I can?t remember. The one item that gives me so much pleasure, other than losing the weight, is purchasing smaller size clothing. It feels so good looking at myself in a mirror. Prior to you I would never do that. I have learned so much from you about the right foods to eat and when to eat them. With all that we have done you made it so very easy following your directions and using common sense to eating. I have really never been hungry eating the smart foods and at the times that you suggest. And all along I was losing weight. I don?t remember the cost of our working together but it was worth every penny. You are worth twice as much for what you have helped me to accomplish. We are not finished yet! More pounds to lose and more smaller clothes to buy. All I can say is ? THANK YOU!!!

Hello Ilana -- Just want to thank you in writing for your support all year. Our working relationship has been key in my commitment to losing weight. I could never have done it without you!

That said, I champion the role of a Nutritionist (you) to anyone (like me) who really wants to find themselves feeling better about the daunting process of weight loss. I decided to list the reasons that I believe brought me to success. • The personalized booklet you designed for me - relating to my lifestyle and my objectives. I read it like a bible and it made complete sense! • The food plans you provided that were specific to my busy work schedule and your willingness to always make changes for me along the way. • The knowledge you offered about food choices and how these effect my appetite and my energy levels. • Your approach that this is an education in eating and not a restrictive diet! • And the relaxed and focused sessions we had where you spoke to me as a friend and not a client!

Working with you was one of the best decisions that I made this year!

Wishing you a healthy, happy and prosperous year ahead, Patti B
