#Functional Nutrition

POV you’re practicing healthy nutrition habits 🍴 For those of you looking to establish healthier eating patterns, here are some examples of what that might look like. Please keep in mind that what’s considered “healthy” is going to be different from one person to the next depending on your background, goals, individual preferences, and more. ❤️ For help with healthy habits: @eltmethod #HealthyHabits #NutritionTips #ELTMethod

add don’t subtract 🌈 I love this representation of a balanced meal from @stephgrassodietitian 💘 One of the most important lessons I’ve learned about nutrition is to focus on what you can add, not subtract. I used to think healthy eating meant cutting our foods I “shouldn’t” eat but actually that can often cause more harm and than good - leading to a restrictive diet, nutrient deficiencies and a poor relationship with food. If you shift your mindset to what you can add in - like more colour, more flavour, more plants, more protein - It’s a more positive way to think about healthy eating. ps. Fun & enjoyment are important considerations when making a balanced meal. #adddontrestrict #healthyeating #balancedmeal #nutrition #recipe #lunchideas

Healthy eating isn’t about restriction, it’s about nourishment. Instead of cutting calories and feeling deprived, focus on quality: whole, nutrient-dense foods that fuel your body and keep you satisfied. 🌿 Think more of balanced meals- not less food. When you nourish yourself properly, your energy, mood, and cravings naturally improve!🤍🙏🏼 It’s not about eating less- it’s about eating right. Your body will thank you!

WHY THIS WORKS 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 I call this the PLATE METHOD 🍽️ It’s a simple way to build balanced meals that include the nutrients your body actually needs throughout the day! ✨ Carbs = energy Fuel for your brain, muscles, workouts, and daily life ✨ Protein = building + repair Supports muscle, metabolism, and helps keep you full ✨ Fats = hormones + satisfaction Adds flavor, helps you feel satisfied, and supports hormone & brain health ✨ Micronutrients = overall health support Vitamins & minerals that support everything from immunity to energy levels ✨ Fiber = digestion + fullness Helps keep you full, supports gut health, and promotes more stable blood sugar When you include a mix of carbs, protein, fats + fiber at meals… ✔️ Meals are more filling ✔️ Energy stays more steady (less crashes) ✔️ Blood sugar is more balanced ✔️ You get more nutrients to support overall health ✨Follow @nourishment.nutrition for simple & nourishing recipes & meal ideas! #balancedmeals #nutritiontips #dietitiansofinstagram #healthymeals #nutritionists

This dietitian’s #1 tip for healthy eating It’s easy to overcomplicate what a healthy diet can look like when we’re constantly being told to eliminate almost every food that we enjoy. Instead of focusing on what to restrict, let’s focus on what we can add. My #1 goal is to promote a healthy lifestyle by helping people make sustainable and realistic changes that are rooted in balance and satisfaction. Contrary to popular belief, dietitians don’t eat a “perfect” diet free of processed foods, non-organic foods, and non-GMO foods - nor do we need to. The goal isn’t to perfect the diet by eliminating all “unhealthy foods”, but to make a healthy lifestyle (a lifestyle that makes you feel happy, energized, and nourished) work for you! Stop subtracting and start adding 🫶🏼 #dietitian #nutrition #nutritiontips

Full day of eats focusing on high protein and whole foods! Most of my meals are either meal prepped or take less than 15 minutes to make. Also, this marshmallow creme might be my new favorite thing. Smart Supplements: @joiwomenswellness (code SAMCFIT) I usually do my lab work every 3 months and smart supplement packs change as they are customized to my bloodwork! Salted Vanilla Protein Coffee: 1 scoop @promix (code SAM) 1 cup milk of choice (I used almond milk) 1 tbsp honey dash of salt 2 shots espresso #whatieatinaday #dayofeating #nutritionist #wholefoodsdiet #highproteindiet

My current approach to nutrition is a combination of intuitively eating what I feel like while still using nutrition as a tool for performance and making conscious choices to ensure I’m eating enough, sustaining energy throughout the day and performing at training 🏃‍♀️🥑🥗 I personally structure my daily eating with 3x main meals, 2x snacks (+ dessert if I’m feeling it) and a pre-workout snack if I’m training that day. As always, this is just what works for me 🤷‍♀️ To avoid underfuelling I focus on the following: ⚡️ ALWAYS having a carb-rich snack before training, whether it’s in the AM or PM ⚡️ Balancing all my main meals with carbs, fats, protein and colour ⚡️ Giving myself permission to enjoy “soul foods” without restriction As women, we’re often made to feel like we need to eat less, become smaller, and take up less space. But here’s your reminder: nourishing your body is essential to growing stronger, feeling empowered, and achieving incredible things 🫶 Reaching your health and fitness goals starts with fuelling your body the right way.
