51. Whole Food Habits: Why Processed "Health" Food Isn't So Healthy

51. Whole Food Habits: Why Processed "Health" Food Isn't So Healthy

Author: Zane Griggs: Fitness Expert March 8, 2021 Duration: 42:35

Here at Hunger Hunt Feast, we aren't interested in a miracle pill, quick fixes, or whatever diet Kim Kardashian is on this week...we are here for an overall lifestyle change with long-lasting results to achieve optimal health. 

In today's episode, Zane is going to break down what you need to do to start creating healthier food habits in your life.

 

QUICK NOTES FROM ZANE:

Whole food needs to be a cornerstone of either a weight loss plan or a plan for long-term health Single-ingredient food like a piece of meat, a vegetable, a sweet potato, a piece of fruit, dab of butter.
There is room for supplementation but your best health, best hormonal response for weight loss will come from whole food.

Food that has to be broken down by your digestive system will have less of an impact on blood sugar & insulin than a processed protein bar that has been ground to powder and stuck together

Processed food can also cause inflammation in the gut which can affect our entire body: food sensitivity, auto-immune response, hormone disrupters

Whole food contains bio-available micronutrients that are far better than any supplement or that are added to processed food.

There are no foods or supplements containing calories that increase fat burning.

High protein diets improve fat burning because of increased satiety allowing you to eat less often.

Using electrolytes while eating low carb or fasting will help you feel better by allowing you to hold on to intercellular water and keep blood pressure at normal levels. I use Relyte by Redmonds Salt

If weight loss is your goal, focus on food quality by choosing whole food:

  • Prioritize protein: at least 100g a day
  • Reduce net carbs to under 80g a day
  • 2-3 meals a day maximum. NO SNACKS
