Breakfast is the PERFECT place to get your day started on a healthy note. And it can be done without any muss or fuss. Here are some ideas for good energy, heart health, and gut health:

Greek yogurt and oats: this combo provides great protein as well as probiotics and fiber for a healthy digestive system.
Eggs and smoked salmon: this combo provides protein for energy and to stabilize blood sugar as well as heart healthy fat.
Berries and apples: these provide antioxidants, fiber and a low glycemic load for balanced blood sugar. Add them to #1.
Avocados and whole grain toast: this trendy option provides healthy fats for heart and joint health. Whole grain toast will boost your fiber. I would add an egg or turkey bacon for a bit of protein.

You get the idea. Protein, carbohydrate and healthy fats are your mantra for every meal!

Here are some simple guidelines that will help you choose the healthiest foods for you:

If we can choose 80% of our foods from whole ingredients such as whole grains, whole grain cereals and breads, potatoes, fruits, veggies, legumes and unprocessed proteins like lean meat, poultry, fish, beans, tofu, nonfat dairy, eggs and nuts we will be assured that are diets are balanced

Check your labels: generally total fat intake should be no more than 3 grams of fat per 100 calories. Go for the lowest amount of saturated fat possible.

Get your fiber intake up: recommendations are 25-30 grams of fiber each day. Any food that gives you 3 grams of fiber or more is considered a good fiber source.

We want to reduce animal (saturated) fats in our diets as much as possible: that means lean proteins with no visible fat, white meat poultry, and reducing butters, creams, whole milk dairy (go for a little less fat), mayonnaise and any fats that are solid at room temperature. Of course a little butter or mayo from time to time is okay, it’s all about balance!

Don’t drive yourself crazy! Do the best you can 80% of the time and the other 20% will take care of itself!

Five ways to properly nourish your body:

Eat a balanced diet: include ALL food groups to ensure your are getting all the calories and nutrients you deserve. Taste the rainbow! Choose brightly colored fruits and veggies for powerful antioxidants, fiber, vitamins and minerals.

Be mindful of portion sizes: tap into your body’s natural signs of hunger and fullness so you don’t over or under eat. Slow your eating down. It takes 30 minutes for the vagus nerve to communicate to the brain that you are full. Pay attention to your body’s signals and you will naturally not only maintain your weight but enjoy what you are eating.

Stay hydrated: aim for water all the way through the day as water is critical for all bodily functions.

Reduce processed foods: by minimizing your reliance on packaged and processed foods you will naturally reduce your intake of unhealthy fats, sodium and added sugars.

Don’t skip meals: eating regularly keeps your metabolism high allowing you to stay physically and mentally focused. It also aids digestion and improves energy - something we all could use!

Don’t wait all day to eat! That is a recipe for decreased metabolism, poor digestion, disrupted sleep, brain fog, cravings and weight gain. You deserve FOOD! Get into a routine and make it easy to get your nutrition:

Set your alarm 10 minutes earlier and have your overnight oats or toast and peanut butter (prepping ahead sets you up for success)
Bring your lunch to work and make your 30 minute lunch time non negotiable and free from distractions
Shop ahead for healthy snacks (raisins and nuts, protein bar, string cheese, dried fruit, yogurt) and prep a few individually wrapped so you can grab and go

Fueling yourself with the nutrients you deserve during your busy day will automatically bring you to a lighter dinner (less fat, fewer calories, better quality and balance) which will improve sleep, foster better digestion, prevent heartburn, and help you wake up hungry for that breakfast which gets the whole thing started again!

Big changes all at once?? Small changes over time?? For more lasting and achievable goals I suggest starting small. Why? It takes about 3 weeks for one change to actually become a habit, so start slow and build. If you are making changes to your diet, choose what is most important to you: better quality food, more balance, more consistent intake, less fat, less salt, more fiber? You choose and then design your environment to make it work: stock your fridge with more fruits and veggies, portion out healthy snacks like whole wheat pretzels, hummus, baby carrots, string cheese, yogurt, dried fruit and nuts, have basic proteins readily available: eggs, chicken, tuna, low fat cottage cheese. You get the idea. Make it easy to succeed. Track progress, not perfection and watch your world change!

Protein provides amino acids to rebuild muscle, helps us build red and white blood cells and is crucial for our immune system. The new dietary guidelines may be confusing to you as it emphasizes full fat dairy and meats over grains, fruits and vegetables. This is counter to years of research that tells us that adequate but not excessive protein is healthy. We also know from research that animal fats can contribute to inflammation, high cholesterol and digestive issues. What is “enough” and what is healthy for most of us? Most adults should consume 2-3 low fat dairy servings per day in addition to approximately 8 ounces of protein from lean red meat, poultry, fish, legumes, eggs, and nuts. Some people need more, some less. So don’t be satisfied with a bowl of pasta for dinner - add some white beans, fish, or chicken to round out your meal in addition to some veggies! And if you want to know exactly what is right for you consult your registered dietitian for an easy to follow plan!!

Fruits and veggies are essential to health and well being. Many fruits also provide antioxidants, vitamin C and even iron (dried raisins, apricots and figs) in addition to gut healthy fiber. Add dried cranberries and sliced banana to your oatmeal, add orange slices or grapes or chopped apple to your salads, have fruit for a snack! Berries for dessert are always a good idea. Most adults should consume 3-4 servings of fruit each day. One serving is a small to medium size fruit, one cup of berries or chopped fresh fruit, ½ cup fruit juice, and ¼ cup dried fruit. Enjoy daily!

Coffee is so often demonized but did you know that it is rich in antioxidants, B vitamins, and minerals like potassium, phosphorus and folate? The FDA recommends that adults consume less than 400mg of caffeine each day, usually the amount you get in 3 cups of strong coffee. Coffee can keep you mentally focused, improve your energy and provide the above mentioned antioxidants. In recent studies coffee has been shown to protect us from Type II diabetes, liver disease, dementia and certain types of cancers. Just be aware that it is easy to consume too much caffeine as it is found in over the counter pain relievers and medicines, in chocolate, in teas, and in dangerous “energy” drinks. Be sensible about how much you consume and reap the rewards.

It is no secret—those wonderful grains, breads, cereals , potatoes, pasta, fruits and veggies are the #1 fuel source for all of us. Don’t fall prey to bad nutrition and weight loss advice telling you to eliminate carbohydrates to lose weight! All you will lose will be muscle and water! Lack of adequate carbohydrates promotes muscle wasting and water loss as well as low blood sugar, cravings, digestive issues, decreased energy, loss of mental focus and depression. Not a pretty picture. Find room on your plate every single day and every time you eat for this essential, nutrient packed food group.

When you practice mindful eating, you will reap many benefits:

Most importantly you will experience enhanced enjoyment of your food as you really taste and appreciate textures, aromas, and flavors.
Your digestion will improve as slowing down and chewing your food thoroughly will aid digestion and nutrient absorption.
It can reduce stress and emotional eating as you become more aware of hunger and fullness cues and eat accordingly rather than in response to an emotional trigger.
It will help with portion control and most likely better weight management in an effortless way.

It’s worth the effort to make the time to nourish yourself and do nothing but that! It can change your world!

By practicing mindful eating, you will automatically slow the eating process down which can improve the whole experience leading to slower eating and greater body awareness. Serve what you need and stop when you are comfortably full. This process can take about 30 minutes before the nerves in the stomach signal the brain that you are full. This can foster having a balanced diet by making you more mindful of what and how much you are eating, which means overall better health.
