Eat quality natural foods to stay healthy
from Eat Move Sleep: How Small Choices Lead to Big Changes by Tom Rath
How to Apply This
- Eat foods with a ratio of one gram of carbs for every one gram of protein.
This will help you control your intake of carbs. - Eat foods that do not have a long shelf life.
Most foods with long shelf lives, like rice, pasta, and canned meat, have preservatives that make them last longer. - Replace refined carbohydrates with vegetables.
For example, eat natural snacks like carrots, apples, or nuts instead of chips, cereals, and crackers. - Eat foods with dark vibrant colors like broccoli, spinach, kale, cucumber, zucchini, and dark leafy vegetables.
These are healthy natural choices of food. - Discard unhealthy foods instead of putting them on a shelf or refrigerator.
You would be tempted to consume them later if you keep them. - Eat whole fruits instead of juicing them.
Eating whole fruits enables you to consume added fiber and prevents you from overdosing on fructose. - Get a nutritional calculator.
It will help you estimate how much each nutrient you need daily.
