I feel like we live in a day and age that is so focused on everything you CAN'T have. All of the hype around the latest health documentary proves my point. The main takeaway for a lot of people...everything you eat will cause cancer or diabetes!
Of course this isn't true, but it can seem true. It's overwhelming, and we're all left wondering what the heck we can eat.
THE REAL REASON FOR THOSE CHOCOLATE CRAVINGS
I know you all know about SuperFoods and all the rage they bring. Well, there's another health craze, not quite as rage filled but still very enthusiastic. I'm terming it the SuperNutrients craze.
A few decades ago the SuperNutrient was calcium. And this was great because we all want healthy bones of course.
And then the SuperNutrient moved onto Vitamin D, especially for those of us who are strangers to the sun majority of the year. Vitamin D became the king of all vitamins for immune support, fighting diseases, and healthy bones.
BEST AND WORST FRUITS
Not all fruits are created equal...in case you didn't know that already. This is especially true when it comes to their sugar content.
When we think about healthy eating and serving sizes, people tend to group fruits and vegetables together. But the reality is we need to keep the focus on vegetables.
