MyKenzen Action Plan

• 1. General Dietary recommendations
• Try to eat any of your favorite whole fruits for
  lunch before taking your meal.
• Include more servings of vegetables (green leafy
  vegetables, yellow and orange) to your main
  meals. Probably you can have fresh vegetables
  sandwiched with your whole meal breads or can be
  added to your soups etc.
• Increase your milk consumption (low-fat) and
  other dairy products like yoghurt.
• Include more nuts, seeds and dried fruits for tea
  time as a snack or can sprinkle on your favorite
  foods.
• Increase your intake of variety of cereals for
  breakfast like oats porridge, wholegrain cereal
  mixes and try to avoid foods like roti prata.
• Although it is good to see your vitamin C intake
  through supplements, it is always advisable to
  get these essential nutrients through healthy
  diet which supplies the nutrients as well as the
  compounds essential for its metabolism.

• 2. Specific Nutrient Recommendation
• Carbohydrates
• Increase your carbohydrate intake to almost about
  180g/day to your current dietary pattern to reach
  your target goal by including following foods

11
MyKenzen Action Plan

• Fats
• Lower your cholesterol intake
• About 3/4th of the required good cholesterol is
  produced by our body itself and the rest 25
  comes from our food. The amount of this
  cholesterol intake must be carefully monitored as
  even a small excess can cause imbalance of
  cholesterol levels in the body.
• Possible reasons for high cholesterol levels
• Family History
• Research indicates that people are at a higher
  risk of high cholesterol if they have a direct
  male relative aged under 55 or female relative
  aged under 65 affected by heart disease.
• Saturated fats
• Since your intake of saturated fats is slightly
  more when compared to other type of fats, it
• might trigger the liver to produce more LDL
  cholesterol.
• Mykenzen Nutrition analysis strongly recommends
  you to

12
MyKenzen Action Plan

• Other suggestions
• It is also very important to eat plenty of fiber
  especially soluble fiber which lowers cholesterol
  levels. Try to include foods like nuts, whole
  fruits, vegetable skins, oats, flaxseed, corn
  bran and also increase the intake of dark green
  leafy vegetables.
• (Refer to the My pyramid chart for
  recommended levels of intake.)
• Try not to eat much in restaurants and fast food
  joints as they contain high sodium content and
  saturated fats.
• Try to use blend of oils like sunflower oil, corn
  oil, olive oil for cooking, for salads etc to
  derive these beneficial fats.

• Vitamins
• Include foods rich in B group vitamins
• Adequate levels of B group vitamin intake is
  essential as it is important for maintaining
  proper functioning of the nervous system as well
  as the cardiac system. They also neutralize and
  negate the effects of carcinogens in the body and
  help to boost the immune system.

MyKenzen Action Plan

• Minerals
• Calcium
• As we all are aware of the importance of calcium
  to our body as promoting bone health, muscle and
  nerve function, it is important to meet the
  target goal for this vital mineral.
• Furthermore as your diet is high in protein and
  sodium, it might increase the calcium losses in
  urine and might lead to joint pains, muscle
  cramps, weaker bones etc. These effects of
  protein and sodium may be especially important in
  those with low calcium intakes.
• Even though few studies suggest that high protein
  diet enhances calcium absorption, it is more
  advisable to take adequate recommended levels
  than excess intake.
• We strongly recommend you to include foods like
  Tofu (scrambled or added in porridges etc),
  calcium fortified orange juice, turnips,
  soybeans, cooked Broccoli and also try to drink
  soymilk or cows milk for breakfast apart from
  adding milk to coffee/tea as caffeinated
  beverages hinder the absorption of calcium.
• Also try to include kale, Chinese cabbage leaves
  or collard greens for salad or for soup as they
  do not contain oxalic acid which hinders calcium
  absorption and are also the best sources of
  calcium.
• Increase your frequency of consuming sardines,
  tuna and salmon which are good sources of calcium.

17
MyKenzen Action Plan

• Increase your intake of potassium
• It is very important to maintain the sodium
  potassium balance in our body. A
• Potassium-rich diet also blunts the effects of
  salt on blood pressure, may reduce the risk of
  developing kidney stones, and possibly decrease
  bone loss with age.
• Failing to meet the recommended daily intake
  levels can lead to a variety of negative
  consequences for both physical as well as mental
  performances. Symptoms include muscular cramps,
  muscular weakness, fatigue, poor reflexes etc.
• Try to snack on dried fruits like raisins,
  prunes, apricots, dates etc as your morning or
  evening snack time
• You can try to include either a fresh vegetable
  or fruit salad regularly as part of any of your
  meal and also keep on your effort to drink
  grapefruit juice as it is a good source of
  potassium.
• Last but not the least, decrease your sodium
  intake as prevention is better than cure and is
  strongly advisable to reduce your salt intake in
  order to reduce the risk of elevated blood
  pressure especially to those who has a family
  history of heart problems.
• Consume less than 2,300 mg (approximately 1 tsp
  of salt) of sodium per day.
• Choose and prepare foods with little salt. At
  the same time, consume potassium-rich foods, such
  as fruits and vegetables.

18
MyKenzen Action Plan

• Few tips to reduce your sodium levels
• Use herbs, spices, and salt-free seasoning blends
  in cooking and at the table
• Cook rice, pasta, and hot cereals without salt.
  Cut back on instant or flavored rice, pasta, and
  cereal mixes, which usually have added salt.
• Choose "convenience" foods that are lower in
  sodium. Cut back on frozen dinners, pizza,
  packaged mixes, canned soups or broths, salad
  dressings and sauces these often have a lot of
  sodium.
• Choose canned foods low in sodium or Rinse canned
  foods, such as tuna, to remove some sodium.

3. Physical activity Keep up with your ongoing
activities with the following recommendations
which would help you to avoid unnecessary fatigue
or muscle tensions/muscle damage etc. Maximize
your benefit from exercise. Research suggests
that your metabolism is activated for several
hours after you perform your exercise. By
performing half your exercise in the morning and
half in the evening, you can increase the benefit
of increased metabolism following a workout
without actually working out more. Aim to
consume about 50 grams of carbohydrate within an
hour of your cycling session. This could come
from either of these choices 800ml of
sports drink or 500ml of fruit juice or 2 slices
thick toast with jam or honey or 2 breakfast bars
or 3 pieces of fruit (or a combination of these).
