ALLERGEN KITCHEN

Our bodies are incredible. They can tell us when we're hungry, when we're full, what we want to eat...

 

Our job is to listen. 

 

Create simple goals and keep a few things in mind:

• try to eat foods in their whole form

• eat a variety of foods (see below!)

• cook more at home (with my help)

• making health, both mental and physical, a priority, can help you reach your nutrition goals

• don't compare yourself to others - you are unique and your journey is yours

Every color we eat means different nutrients we get from that food.

​

When you go to the grocery store, leave your fruits and vegetables section on your list blank.

​

Instead, look at all of the colors and shapes and potential flavors. Choose a variety of fruits and vegetables, and pick some produce you've never cooked before...

 

Try it.

​

Does your plate have protein? Great. Whole grain or starch? Great. Lots of vegetables and color? Perfect.

If we stop eating our favorite foods that some might label as "bad," what fun is eating anymore?

​

Crave your favorite foods. Enjoy every single bite. Eat slowly. Appreciate the flavors. Listen to your hunger cues.

​

Want to stop "bad" cravings?

• eat breakfast

• eat lunch

• eat dinner

• eat balanced snacks throughout the day

​

You just broke the code, my friends.
