Clean Eating

Good morning Boca the suns up put your gloves up! Fighting nutrition is a confusing battle so let's clarify what clean eating means. Think about it Clean; first and foremost signifies you added no fat, no sodium, and no sugar. Clean Eating is also determined by how the food breaks down in the body and how the food is prepared.

So the three variables that determine if your meal is a clean are:

1. How the food breaks down in the body - Carrots are a nutritious vegetable but when your body breaks it down it will caramelize. Turning to sugar in the body. Not clean pick something else!

2. All proteins have natural occurring fats. Why add more? When you look at your body can you tell the difference between the good fat and the bad fat? Me either, so don't add oil, sodium, or sugar.

3. Ideally all of your proteins will be grilled, things can be baked, but frying and pan searing are out. 

We're not allowed to eat carrots even though it's a vegetable, not allowed to put olive oil on anything because it already has fat, and I have to grill or bake everything. That's Right!

Happy Shredding!
