“When we approach nutrition from a place of addition rather than restriction, I think it can become so much more approachable, doable, and honestly, fun.”In this episode, I’m sharing a different approach to nutrition: focusing on what you can add rather than what you should cut out. I walk through three of my favorite ways to add nutrition while emphasizing that eating enough comes before focusing on variety or optimization. I also talk about how healing your relationship with food can give you more freedom to consider nutrition alongside taste and satisfaction, rather than letting calories or diet culture make every decision. The goal is to make nutrition feel enjoyable, flexible, and supportive, not restrictive or rigid.✅ What You'll Learn:Why eating enough is the foundation of nutrition before focusing on variety and micronutrientsSimple ways to add plant-based micronutrients to various dishesHow to add more fiber in ways that feel enjoyable and approachable, using every day foodsHow smoothies can be an easy and fun way to combine a variety of foods, flavors, and nutrientsWhy healing your relationship with food allows you to consider nutrition alongside taste, satisfaction, convenience, preferences, and your body's needsHow to approach nutrition without turning it into another rigid set of rules, tracking system, or source of food guilt and anxiety🔗 Resources:My smoothie guide: dietculturerebel.com/smoothieSunfiber supplement: https://amzn.to/3X0dtcxGrab the Hunger & Fullness Scale Guide at DietCultureRebel.com/hungerfullnessscale and take your next step toward building trust with your body and foodConnect with me over on Instagram at @diet.culture.rebelStruggling with food, but not sure where to start?You don’t have to feel 100% ready to get support.
