I have had a lot of requests lately to share how to simplify healthy eating, so of course I wanted to create a helpful podcast on this topic. In this episode, I will share my definition of healthy eating, what macronutrients are, and why our bodies need them, and a sample day with balanced meals.
Note -This information provided in this podcast is for general information purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional personalized advice, diagnosis, or treatments. Everybody's nutritional needs are different.
This podcast in intended to inspire healthy eating and learning how to make it fun. It also shed's light on how what we eat impacts not only our physical body, but also our mental and spiritual health too.
In this episode:
- What is healthy eating really?
- What are real, whole foods?
- What are macronutrients?
- Why does our body require macronutrients to function optionally? What does each macronutrient provide to the body?
- Carbohydrates - body's main source of energy. Best sources: veggies, fruit,sweet potatoes, potatoes, grains, legumes, oats, quinoa, brown rice, buckwheat, barley, coconut flour, almond flour and oat flour
- Protein - building blocks of muscle, helps repair, helps with satiety, hormones and enzymes. Best sources - animal protein/meat - chicken, red meat 1x week, turkey, fish, salmon, shrimp, scallops, crab. Dairy sources: greek yogurt, cottage cheese. Eggs & Whey protein powder. Plant-based: tofu, legumes, lentils, chickpeas, black beans, tofu, edamame, quinoa, chia seeds, hemp seeds, flax seeds.
- Fats - essential for brain health, hormonal health and vitamin absorption (D,E,K,A). Best sources: avocado, olive oil, olives, coconut oil, nuts and seeds (walnuts, almonds, cashews, brazil nuts, sunflower, pumpkin, chia, flax, hemp seeds), salmon, nut butters, grass fed butter, ghee and mct oil.
- What is a good balance or ratio for each macro? Remember ratios can shift depending on the individuals goals/lifestyle/training etc.
- Sample day - food choices and options - what I typically eat in a day
- Why making a plan that works for you helps you simplify eating healthy more consistently - I share what works for our family
- How to build a meal - a simple guide to portion sizes without stress
- Healthy plate method
- What healthy eating does for our bodies physically, mentally and spiritually or energetically - they are ALL CONNECTED.
Reminder healthy eating isn't about being perfect, it's about being consistent and intentional. It's about listening to your body and honouring your needs.
When you fuel yourself with love and balance, you become more connected, more energized, and more intune with your higher self. Until next week, shine on my friends. I am so grateful that you are here.
