Mindful of what goes into your mouth in terms of nutrition.
Use these tips to increase awareness:
- Increase intake of protein (the building block of our cells and muscles), protein is very thermogenic and helps us feel full. Start with 1 gram per lb of body weight. Split this number up between meals and snacks per day. Consider supplementing with a Whey or Vegan Protein Powder.
- Aim to eat 3 servings of green veggies per day and 1-2 small servings of berries.
- Switch from unhealthy vegetable oils to healthy fats like grass-fed butter, coconut oil, or EVOO.
- Eat 1-2 servings of wild caught fish like salmon every week.
- Use an app. like MyFitnessPal to track your intake everyday. Or a notepad and pencil work great too!
- Consider supplementing with a Multivitamin that contains all essential nutrients and added Omega 3 oils for heart / joint health.
