“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"
-Hippocrates

Healthy Eating
Tips + Reminders

  • EAT INTUITIVELY! Listen to your body and use common sense. 

  • Choose organic whenever possible

  • Plan meals for the week: take pantry inventory & make a grocery list every Sunday

    • this just makes for a much smoother week

  • Eat the same thing for breakfast all week as an easy way to simplify your mornings and your meal plans

  • Smoothies are where it's at. If you have not yet invested in a good blender, I would highly recommend it. I use a Vitamix and it is well worth the investment!

  • Read the ingredients label on everything you buy

    • the front, back, and sides of the package don't matter, just stick to the ingredients

    • if you can't pronounce it, you probably shouldn't be eating it

  • Shop local whenever possible

    • farmers markets, fruit stands, locally owned health food stores, etc.

  • If you're going to pick a diet and stick to it, I would highly recommend following your blood type diet

*Note: Everyone's bodies are different and like/need different things - the most important thing is to listen to your body
