New Traditions for Good Nutrition

Avoid slipping up on your slim down by practicing these principles in all your daily nutrition affairs! 

  • Always eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and should be consumed within 30 minutes of waking up. Cortisol levels are the highest when you wake up in the morning. Cortisol, the body’s primary stress hormone, is essential for managing metabolism and blood sugar. Not eating breakfast will likely send you a roller coaster of hunger cravings and energy plunges throughout the day. Don’t fall off the wagon by skipping morning meals! 
  • Eat 4-6 small meals a day. The fewer meals you eat, the less your body will burn fat. Increase the amount of food you eat throughout without increasing the calories. 
  • Avoid foods that increase hunger, like synthetic sweeteners, coffee, and sugary snacks, and swap them for foods with high water, protein, and fiber content, like oat bran, grapefruit, raspberries, and asparagus. 
  • Eat consistent amounts of carbohydrates and proteins at each meal. Try a simple trick to remember what you should eat for every meal: Protein should be the size of your palm, and carbohydrates should be the size of your fist.

March is National Nutrition Month

“National Nutrition Month® is an annual campaign created by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. During March, everyone is invited to learn about making informed food choices and developing healthy eating and physical activity habits.

This year’s theme, “Celebrate a World of Flavors,” showcases how flavors from cultures worldwide are a tasty way to nourish ourselves and appreciate our diversity. We are all unique with different bodies, goals, backgrounds, and tastes!”

Sober Curator Pro Tip: Follow these #hashtags on social media #NationalNutritionMonth #RDNday #NNMchat #eatright #eatrightPRO #kidseatright #foodnutrimag


Good Mood, Good Food!

You are what you eat!  

Research shows that food does affect your mood. Nutrition plays a significant role in thinking, feeling, and behaving. A cheerful disposition and gratitude attitude will motivate you to achieve your fitness and nutrition goals. Up your plate game with these good mood-foods:

  • Asparagus – loaded with a powerful antioxidant that helps flush toxins out of the body and beats symptoms of bloating. Asparagus also contains high levels of tryptophan, linked to improved mood.  
  • Chia Seeds – Today is National Chia Day! Since 2016, we have been celebrating this rare but mighty superfood on March 23rd. They are packed with fiber, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants for weight loss support. These tiny seeds are also rich in calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus, which contribute to bone health and help to calm the nerves.  
  • Grapefruit – this citrus fruit has properties linked to weight loss and helps with appetite control. Considered a high water-content fruit, it will also help you stay hydrated. *Grapefruit may lead to medication interactions, so talk to your doctor before adding it to your diet. 
  • Lentils – considered one of the world’s healthiest foods! Lentils contain B vitamins and folate, which fight stress and increase mental energy. Lentils are one of the best sources of resistant starch, a type of fiber that resists being digested. Resistant starches increase your body’s ability to burn fat and help to regulate your appetite. 
  • Omegas – the best nutrient for repairing and enhancing brain health. Eat these healthy fats for memory improvement and quick wit!
