What we eat says a lot about us, emotionally and culturally. Emotional and cultural eating may derail your ability to make wise nutrition choices. Change your identity surrounding food and claim a new identity as someone who makes excellent nutrition choices!
There are two main objectives to eating a more healthful diet: eat lots of colorful veggies and limit processed foods. Blow are five tips to help you master the nutrition foundation of health:
- Rainbow: Focus on eating the rainbow – lots of color.
- Processed Foods: Limit processed foods. Read all labels. See our “Avoid List”.
- Carbohydrates: Limit to around 25-40 grams per day.
- Sugar: Remove all straight sugar and added sugar. Limit hybridized fruits (most fruits).
- Organic: Eat organic when possible.
- Supplements: Use only food-sourced supplementation when needed.
