These studies will enable you to know what type of diet is needed in each type of training according to its intensity.



Avoid these 5 fad diets

Finally, we recommend that you consult a specialist so that they can guide you and help you in the correct way. Ah! And remember that when it comes to health and well-being, Collaborative Research Group takes better care of you.
