HOW TO GROCERY SHOP HEALTHY 101

Healthy grocery shopping doesnt have to be stressful or expensive!

Here is a simple guide on how to shop healthy for the week (this feeds 1-2 for the week).

Always remember to read your ingredient list and avoid high fructose corn syrup, seed oils and buy more Whole Foods as much as possible.

Does this help??

... Read moreGrocery shopping can be daunting, but with a clear plan, it becomes a rewarding experience. Start by focusing on your protein choices; opt for 1-2 lean sources like chicken or turkey. Next, always select 2-3 varieties of vegetables, such as asparagus or bell peppers, to ensure you have colorful and nutrient-rich options for your meals. Fruits are equally important; having on-the-go options like dates or seasonal fruits can satisfy your sweet cravings healthily. When it comes to carbohydrates, consider whole grains or options like rice cakes for a pre-workout boost. Don't forget about healthy fats—avocados and nuts are excellent choices. Remember to select one or two treats to indulge in occasionally, so you won’t feel deprived. Lastly, explore drink alternatives to reduce sugar intake; flavored seltzers or zero-sugar sodas can be refreshing and satisfying. Taking these strategies into account will not only streamline your shopping trips but also ensure you're making nutritious and informed choices that will contribute to your overall well-being.
