Optimize your Nutrition Intake & Lifestyle to optimize your Health!
Sometimes change is overwhelming which is why my practice emphasizes “One Step at a Time”, slow integration of healthy habits and foods so you will see results. Many of my clients say that the diets I recommend are not completely different than their present diets making it easier for them to make successful changes.
Join me:
- Make sure you are meeting your protein requirements,
- Add more ALA (Alpha-linolenic acid, a form of Omega 3) which will feed and encourage a healthier microbiome, your second brain,
- Add green leafy vegetables daily to your diet which may add an extra 11 years to your life,
- Along with colourful vegetables and fruits rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals supporting healthy gut microbes,
- Consume enough fibre, fluid and move sufficiently for regular bowel functions and better health,
- Consider chilling your carbs, making larger batches of grains and starchy vegetables, freezing or refrigerating as leftovers to increase resistive starch intake and reduce carbohydrate loads.
- Chew your food well, and add carminative herbs to help relieve gas and bloating,
- Meet your calcium and iron requirement with food
- In fact, meet all your vitamin, mineral, fibre and fluid requirements through diet, when possible.
If its unlikely that you can meet your nutritional requirements with food, will advise supplements when necessary.
