In my last blog post, we talked about some simpleĀ steps to reduce inflammation and feel much better. Today, let’s talk energy. We want real, sustained, feel-amazing energy.
If your body is constantly swinging between āwiredā and āwiped,ā the issue may not be how much youāre eatingābutĀ whatās missing on your plate.
Hereās the truth: a low-calorie smoothie or a āhealthyā salad isnāt enough if it doesnāt deliver what your body needs to thrive.
So what does it need?
The Big 3: Fat, Fibre & Protein
1. Healthy Fats
Good fats help regulate hormones, nourish your brain, fuel your metabolism, and even make your skin glow.
Think: avocado, nuts, seeds, coconut oil, olive oil, grass-fed butter, and wild salmon.
2. Fibre
Fibre is your bodyās natural detox system. It helps flush excess estrogen, regulate digestion, and stabilize blood sugar (which also means fewer cravings).
Think: leafy greens, lentils, chia seeds, berries, apples, and beans.
3. Protein
Protein keeps you full, supports your muscles and skin, and helps balance your blood sugar.
Your protein intake should be between 15 and 35% of your daily caloric intake – depending on your exercise routine.Ā
Think: fish, beef, legumes, pasture-raised eggs, tempeh, and even nuts.
ā Try This Today
With every meal, pause and ask:
Do I have a source of fat, fibre, and protein on this plate?
You donāt need to be perfectājust more balanced.
Even a snack of guacamole (fat), apple slices (fibre), and almonds (protein) can carry you further than a ā100-calorieā pack of nothingness.
In the next post, weāll talk about the easiest way to get all your nutrients every day.Ā
