Stop getting played by “Protein-Packed” labels.

Yeah, that bar shouting “HIGH PROTEIN!” on the front? Chances are… it’s not even close.

The real test isn’t the bold font — it’s calories vs protein.

The Rule:
✅ 1 gram of protein for every 10 calories or fewer = actually high-protein

10g protein in 100 calories ✅ (real deal)

10g protein in 400 calories ❌ (marketing stunt)

Why this matters:

You want protein that actually fills you, stabilizes energy, and supports muscle.

Fancy packaging doesn’t do squat for your goals.

Pro Tip:
Stop staring at the word Protein on the front.
Do the math: Calories ÷ Protein ≤ 10.

If it’s higher, it’s not high-protein — it’s just pretending.

I’m honestly tired of watching diet culture butcher basic nutrition.

“Cut carbs.”
“Carbs make you fat.”
“Low carb = healthy.”

And people just follow it. No questions asked.

Here’s the part that should bother you:

Fiber is a carbohydrate.

The same carb category you were told to slash.

Fiber helps regulate blood sugar.
Supports gut health.
Improves cholesterol markers.

And people are out here bragging about avoiding it.

Then there’s sugar.

Total sugar on a label is not the same as added sugar.

Fruit comes packaged with fiber.
Added sugar is engineered into processed food to keep you hooked.

Same word. Completely different impact.

Diet culture doesn’t teach you how to read a label.
It teaches you how to fear one.

Stop blindly following trends.
Start asking:

How much fiber?
How much added sugar?
What’s the actual food source?

Carbs aren’t the issue.
Ignorance — and the willingness to follow it — is.

Let's talk fats, one of three macro nutrients.

You get told your cholesterol is high…

And then what?

No real explanation.
Just “watch your cholesterol.”

So, people obsess over the cholesterol number on the nutrition label —
while ignoring what often matters more.

For most people,
saturated fat has a greater impact on raising LDL (“bad”) cholesterol than dietary cholesterol does.

Unsaturated fats (olive oil, avocado, nuts, seeds, fatty fish) can actually improve cholesterol levels.
They can help lower LDL and support a healthier overall ratio.
And here’s what almost no one explains:

If a label shows:
Total Fat = 10g
Saturated Fat = 2g

The remaining 8g is mostly unsaturated fat.

Labels don’t always list mono- and polyunsaturated fats.
But if total fat is higher than saturated fat, the difference is typically your unsaturated fats.

And those fats?
They can help lower LDL and improve your overall cholesterol profile.

So instead of fearing all fat or chasing “low fat” labels (which often just means more sugar), start asking:

If your cholesterol is high,
don’t just scan for the cholesterol line.

Look at:
– Saturated fat content
– Overall dietary pattern
– Fat quality

Low fat ≠ good fat.
Cholesterol on the label ≠ the main issue.

You deserve more than a half-explanation at a 10-minute appointment.

Food isn't the enemy, and nutrition labels aren’t confusing.
You’ve just never been taught how to read them, and companies know exactly how to manipulate your ignorance and profit from confusion.

Stop letting packaging do the talking.
“Low fat” doesn’t mean healthy.
"Protein" doesn't mean high protein
“Organic” doesn’t mean balanced.

Over the next few days, I’m ripping apart the nutrition label piece by piece so you stop getting played by flashy packaging and can start fighting back against marketing because informed choices are power.

Stay tuned. You don’t want to miss this.

🌿 Recovery & Regeneration

Healing without guilt or hesitation.

Recovery isn’t weakness—it’s where strength is rebuilt.
You’re doing the work and that requires you to slow down, breathe, reflect, and reset. It’s not something to be earned or deserved, it’s necessary. Because being “on” 24/7 is how people burn out and give up.
