Healthy Eating

MJJ24

Hello all, does anyone please have any tips on how to eat healthy and get the vitamins and minerals needed when you struggle eating stuff outside of safe foods (which for me are not the healthiest)? I have had a few deficiencies in the past and want to take steps to prevent them but its hard! Thanks in advance Slight smile

    i did the Primal diet for 3.5-4 years and although I don’t follow it strictly now I’ve stuck with it mostly. It’s similar to a Paleo. Suppose the main difference is you get enough carbs which I needed as I didn’t need to lose weight but wanted to be healthy. I had a coach that for the first few months I would send in pictures of what I ate and kept a food diary. Because I was accountable I followed it strictly until I was confident I could keep it up. I would warn you that the first 2-3 weeks were extremely tough as my body was detoxing and I had headaches, low energy and sometimes felt a little sick. After that I felt good with lots of energy. Once I was focused and determined I could keep it going and was surprised how good I felt in general just from eating clean.
