Back to Basics - Nutrition
Back to Basics
There are 24,000 different diet books on the shelves today. Magazines tell us about the latest celebrities doing no carbs, all carbs or some carbs. Confused? You’re not alone! Lets get back to basics.
Why do we need to eat? We are made up of trillions of living cells. We make 3 million new cells every second. The physiological reason why we eat is to provide our bodies with the vitamins, minerals and nutrients it needs to make the cells that make up our bodies. It makes sense then that the food we eat needs to be full of life and nutrition if it is going to serve our body well.
Processed, pre-packaged fast foods have little to no nutrition left in them. These foods are cooked to high temperatures to kill bacteria and to get them ready for a long shelf life. This process actually kills off nearly all the good enzymes and nutrition. So when we eat these foods, we are not providing our body with what it needs to make healthy cells – the only use for these foods is as stored fat!
So what should you eat? Quite simply, it takes life to give life. Food which is or has been alive and is minimally processed by humans, which includes all your vegetables, salad, fruit, beans, pulses, whole grains, fish, meat and plenty of water. If it’s fresh it’s good! Unlike processed food, the body breaks down fresh food slowly, utilising the nutrition and releasing calories at an even rate so that they don’t store. Fresh food also keeps us fuller longer, reducing our desire for sugary or processed snacks. So before you eat, ask yourself this question: how is this food serving my body?
Processed food is popular because it fits in with our busy lifestyle. But eating fresh is easier than you think – preparation is the key. With shops open 24 hours a day and delivering to your door there is no excuse for not having fresh food in your home. Most supermarkets stock prepared fresh vegetables, which although not quite as good as unprepared, allows you to make a stir fry quicker than you can order and fetch your take away!
Eating fresh, vibrant foods is not a diet – it’s a lifestyle. Eating with family and friends and enjoying the taste of our food is extremely important. That’s why no food is ‘banned’. If you stick to the 80/20 rule where you eat fresh, healthy foods 80% of the time, your body will be getting what it needs to be strong and healthy and will be able to cope with the other 20%.
