My Full Day Of Healthy Eating!

Today, we're going to delve into an essential aspect of a healthy lifestyle: nutrition.

I'll show you what a typical day of eating can look like to support your health and well-being.

We'll focus on natural, accessible foods, without relying on supplements. By incorporating these recipes into your regular diet, you'll see significant improvements.

Now, let's dive into what a day of eating could look like.

Breakfast

Breakfast is a crucial part of the day, as it fuels your workouts and sets the tone for the day ahead. Depending on your workout schedule, there are different options to consider. If you exercise early in the morning, it's important not to consume too much before the workout. Start with a glass of water to kickstart digestion, wait for about five minutes, and then choose one of the following options:

•  Oatmeal: Cook half a cup of oatmeal and add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup, as well as a tablespoon of peanut or almond butter. This combination provides a nutritious and filling start to the day.
•  Sourdough Toast: Opt for a sourdough toast with maple syrup and peanut or almond butter. Pair it with a cup of black coffee or green tea.

For those who work out later in the morning, add eggs and fruits to the above. If you prefer a vegan option, you can skip the eggs, do a full cup of oats and include additional ingredients like berries, a banana, flax seeds, or avocado to enhance the oatmeal's nutritional profile.

Snacks

For snacks throughout the day, bananas (before workout), apples and nuts (after workout) are excellent choices. Grab a handful of mixed nuts, such as almonds and walnuts, for a satisfying and nutritious snack. Stay hydrated with water or organic coconut water, avoiding sugary drinks and supplements.

Lunch

Lunch offers diverse options based on your lifestyle and activity level. If you prefer meat, consider lean proteins like chicken breast or baked salmon. Pair them with sweet potatoes, greens like spinach or kale, and flavor-enhancers such as basil, garlic, or balsamic. Use olive oil or coconut oil for cooking.

If you follow a vegetarian diet, rice, sweet potatoes, and cooked beans, along with vegetables and greens, make for a nutritious and delicious meal. Don't forget to include turmeric for its anti-inflammatory properties. Use olive oil or coconut oil as your cooking fat and incorporate nutritional yeast for added B12.

Afternoon Snack

If you work out in the afternoon, the previously mentioned snacks, such as bananas and nuts, remain a great option. If desired, you can supplement with an organic pea protein shake mixed with water or coconut water.

Dinner

Dinner can vary depending on your activity level in the evening. If you're less active, it's advisable to reduce your slow carb intake. So don’t eat slow carbs after 6pm as a rule of thumb. Choose lean pork or turkey breast, char-boiled or baked, as your protein source. Pair it with a vegetable mash made from broccoli, carrots, and mushrooms. Season with salt, pepper, olive oil, and spices to enhance the flavors.

For vegetarians, bean pasta options, such as mung bean or lentil pasta, provide a protein-rich alternative. Make sure to read the labels when buying these products and go for brands to don’t use gums and additives. Combine them with organic tofu scrambles and a variety of veggies and greens. Olive oil, spices, and nutritional yeast can elevate the taste.

Dessert

Finish off your day with a satisfying dessert. Choose a fruit you enjoy, like pineapple or strawberries, and dice them up. Top them with fresh mint, a handful of roasted nuts, and savor the flavors. Alternatively, a fig or slice of dried mango can provide a sweet treat before bedtime.
