Adopting a new lifestyle and changing the way you eat requires trying new things and foods. My approach to food is to experiment, experiment, experiment! You may not love every recipe, but if you keep trying you will find some wonderful new recipes that you can’t do without. These will become your staples. Below is one of my favorite super healthy recipes.
While I believe in taking a holistic approach to optimal health, diet modification is a great place to start. A healthy diet doesn’t have to be complicated and the results of your efforts are usually seen quickly, keeping you motivated.
