These days we need simple, right? We often make food way more complicated than it needs to be. Counting calories, low-fat, low-carb, eating six meals a day, drinking protein shakes, intermittent fasting -- you've been bombarded with thousands of conflicting and overwhelming ideas telling you how you should feed yourself. Unfortunately, there's no magic equation — no set of rules you can find on Pinterest to make your health dreams come true. There is good news though; it's so much more straightforward than you think.
This month, give yourself a break! We could all use a break as we struggle to make sense of this “new normal.” Instead of focusing on all of the restrictions, rules and cheat sheets -- concentrate on one thing only - Eating whole foods as much as possible, and getting rid of most of the processed foods you currently consume. That's it. You'll see results quickly, and you'll find it much easier than diets with complicated recipes and strict rules. Isn’t that great news?
