With all the
dieting trends saturating the market, it’s easy to be confused about nutrition
and what it means to the individual. The good news is there is no “one way” on
the path to healthy eating. While one person may flourish on a vegetarian or
vegan diet, others may feel tired and restless when cutting meat, dairy, and
other animal products from the menu. The opposite scenario may also prove true.
The key to
understanding personal nutrition is learning to listen to your body. Cutting
out or reducing dairy makes sense for someone who experiences digestive upset
after consuming milk products, but this doesn’t apply to everyone. Being aware
of how certain foods make you feel after eating them is essential. One of the best
ways to discover (and remember) this is by keeping a food journal. This is
especially helpful for those with existing health problems. Writing down how
certain foods make you feel shortly after eating them may clue you in to what
your body needs and what it doesn’t need. Be sure to note your mood before and
after eating certain foods, as this is helpful in discovering cravings and how
they’re related to our moods.
Certain
foods are labeled “good” or “bad”, depending on which diet you choose to
follow. Again, what is “good” for one person may prove “bad” for another. It
all comes back to personal nutrition. Some foods are less desirable than others
across the board, however, such as highly refined foods (sugar, white flour,
corn syrup, refined oils, refined grains). These foods have been stripped of
their nutritional content for the sake of profits and shelf life. Consuming
less refined sugars, oils, grains and caffeine is proven to increase better
health in the population, reducing heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.
The bottom line is
this: one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to nutrition. People must discover
