If all you eat for the rest of your life is cereal you’re likely to encounter health related problems.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ If all you eat for the rest of your life is lettuce, you’ll likely encounter health problems too.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Despite many nutritionists failing to understand it, we aren’t consuming only cereal or lettuce for the rest of our lives. The quality of our diet and its relationship with our health is entirely dependent on our entire diet of long periods of time.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Therefore it is impossible for a specific food consumed at a single moment in time to be detrimental to any aspect of health, unless you’re allergic to it. ⁣ When people say specific foods are good or bad, they don’t understand (or are purposefully ignoring) the context within an overall diet.⁣⁣ This is rather silly. ⁣⁣ Functional medicine is not evidence based. Many of its ‘practitioners’ create or exaggerate problems and demonize processed food so they can ‘heal’ you with their line of (ironically hilarious) processed supplements.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Trusting conventional medicine, eating a balanced diet rich in nutrients, including any food you enjoy and looking at the big picture are all much better ideas.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #cereal #breakfast #nutrition

If you swapped 500ml of orange juice, 500ml of Coca-Cola and a large latte for any amount of water, Coca-Cola Zero or black coffee, across a year you could add one of the following to your diet and remain the same weight: 2514 slices of bread 86 large domino’s pepperoni pizzas 38kg of peanut butter 42kg of nutella 458 Big Macs 223 tubs of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream Though it’s not necessarily advisable to add these amounts of these items to your diet over the course of a year, it does highlight how many calories are in the original drink selections. By swapping the drinks you would consume the same volume and achieve similar tastes and experiences, but you would save hundreds of thousands of calories each year. In fact, you would lose between 3.5 and 4.5 stone depending on metabolic adaptation. This seems like a fairly simple, sustainable fat loss solution if you ask me. ✅ #calories #losefat #caloriecounting #fitnessmotivation #fyp

A quick reminder that carbs can be part of a balanced, supportive diet for any fitness goal. A low carb diet may be your preference, but it certainly isn’t necessary. Vegan diets are not necessarily more healthful than animal inclusive diets that include the additional nutrients and fibre in plants. Protein consumption in regular amounts doesn’t damage your kidneys. Carnivore diets obtain an abundance of nutrients from meat, but lack additional nutrients and fibre from plants. Plants are not toxic. Creatine monohydrate supplementation has been rigorously researched and found to have a plethora of benefits such as increase in lean mass and strength. It doesn’t make you bald. There will always be a diet camp trying to inflict their ideology onto you. The reality is there is no ‘best’ diet for health. But a balanced diet focused on nutrient density, sufficient fibre and relatively high protein will likely serve you well. 🙏 #carbs #vegan #carnivore #fitness #nutrition #diet

Losing body fat and improving your health doesn’t happen in one day. But making diet and lifestyle changes achievable for one day can allow you to carry on achieving them for all days. Whether your goal is fat loss or improving any aspect of your health, repeating small, easy changes and introducing gradual extensions will always be more sustainable and effective than making drastic changes overnight. ✅ #fatloss #nutrition #fitnesstips #foryou #fypシ

This is your daily reminder to make sure you keep enjoying cinnamon swirls (or any food that pleases your tastebuds). Individual food choices do not define your overall health or the amount of body fat you have. Your collective choices over weeks, months and years do. Thus, anyone who shames you for eating a single food that isn’t nutrient dense, or is high in calories, simply doesn’t understand nutrition, context, the human anatomy, or time. Eat it and move on. ✅ #broccoli #cinnamonswirl #foodie #nutrition #fatloss #fyp
