Eating healthy. It seems like it should be simple, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. It can make healthy eating a challenge. It can also make it difficult to determine whether you have found a good nutrition program, or whether you have simply found another fad diet. Here are some important things to look for in a nutrition program to help you make great lifestyle choices.
- Does it vilify a particular food or food group? Healthy eating means eating a variety of natural foods. If a nutrition program tells you to avoid all fats or avoid all carbs, then it should raise some red flags.
- Is the program food based? While there is a place for supplements, a healthy diet should be focused on food, with supplements added to meet the needs you struggle to meet with your food choices.
- Can it be tailored to meet any of your specific medical needs? If you have any existing health conditions, food sensitivities, food allergies, or other issues that impact your diet, you want to make sure that your nutritional program can be adjusted for your individual needs.
- Is it sustainable, for you? No matter how great a nutrition program is or how wonderful its results, if you cannot sustain it, it will not work for you. Better to find a good program that you will incorporate into your daily lifestyle, than a great program that you will not follow.
