Bikram Yoga Decatur

In spite of the fact that we're not nutritionists, Bikram Yoga instructors are often asked for advice about eating and diet. It's true that our experience has given us lots of general information about the effects of certain foods and/or eating habits on our practice but it's also true that everybody's physiology and needs are unique and there is no single diet that applies to all.

Still, there is one suggestion I almost always give when asked anything related to food and diet and it is this: eat a variety of whole, healthy foods including an abundance of fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains and modest amounts of proteins such as meat and/or dairy. By "whole" I mean foods that are as close to their natural state as possible. The more processing a food has gone through the less value and the more detrimental effects it is likely to have.

It may be an unlikely source but Forbes magazine has published an article which closely matches my own perspective and includes some specific suggestions for what to eat.
