 “Realigning Nutrition with Intuition” Liv Kennedy

Consider

  • Do I mostly eat carbs from the ‘Eat Most’, ‘Eat Some’ or ‘Eat Least’ list? How can I adjust my diet to eat more carbs from the ‘Eat Most’ list and less carbs from the ‘Eat Least’ list?

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  

  • Do I mostly eat fats from the ‘Eat Most’, ‘Eat Some’ or ‘Eat Least’ list? How can I adjust my diet to eat more fats from the ‘Eat Most’ list and less fats from the ‘Eat Least’ list?

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

 

  • Do I mostly eat protein from the ‘Eat Most’, ‘Eat Some’ or ‘Eat Least’ list? How can I adjust my diet to eat more protein from the ‘Eat Most’ list and less protein from the ‘Eat Least’ list?

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  

  • Add up the number of grams of protein I eat on the average day (using the list or Google the number of grams of protein in different foods). Compare this to the RDI for my weight.  Am I above or below the RDI?  How much?  If I am below, add high-protein foods in and take low-protein foods out until I achieve the RDI.

  • Do I currently eat many functional foods in my daily diet? How can I include more functional foods into my diet?

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  

  • What supplements do I routinely take? Are they naturally or synthetically derived (if they do not state a natural source, it may be assumed they are synthetic)?  How can I obtain these nutrients from natural sources?  e. real food, superfoods or functional foods
