I’m back with another What I Eat in a Day video today (as you loved my first one so much) – but this time I’m focusing on Whole30 Recipes. It’s January and many folks are pursuing a Whole30 after a holiday period of too much indulging. Whole30 is a great reset to remind yourself how great your body can feel when you’re not bogging it down with too much sugar, alcohol, gluten, dairy and packaged food.

The funny thing is I eat Whole30 about 70% of the time without even trying, because that’s how I normally eat. Over the years I’ve learned my body is okay with legumes and beans so have no problem incorporating those into my diet. But I do keep grains like quinoa (which can flare my autoimmune symptoms) to a minimum. All of this I know because I’ve taken the time to understand how my body responds to certain ingredients. And that’s the beauty of Whole30 – food education and awareness for your individual body. I should also mention that Whole30 is not a diet in the traditional sense – you don’t count calories and don’t focus on weight loss (though it’s frequently a side effect). It’s simply about removing foods that are likely to cause digestive and other health issues for 30 days, then systematically reintroducing them to see how your body responds. If you’d like to keep certain foods in or out of your diet afterwards, it’s up to you and what makes your feel your best. Whole30 is another tool in your arsenal to understand your body and boost your wellness. And that’s a wonderful thing!
