Episode Summary
In this episode, we circle back around to the all important determinant of health - FOOD!
The topic of food has been a hot one to handle for some time now, and there is no sign of it cooling down.
In this episode we aim to CUT THROUGH THE CHAOS and find a simple and straight forward path to the optimal food choices and eating habits.
To sum it up, we focus on...
-
The importance of eating WHOLE FOODS over processed foods (this means olives over olive oil, peas over pea protein, and dates over date sugar)
-
Reading nutrition labels - focus on THE INGREDIENTS
-
Choose ORGANIC - or refer to the environmental working group's clean 15 and dirty dozen
-
Cook your own food (restaurants mostly add LOTS of undesirable ingredients)
-
Focus on PLANTS - plants are nutrient dense, and we need these nutrients to maintain optimal health
-
Be conscious about food combining - specifically avoid high fat combined with high carb - a deadly combo! (think donuts, pastry, steak and potato, etc.
