Case Specific Nutrition
Mentoring, Mindsets & Mythbusting (CSN3M)

"I thought that was healthy" - the phrase we hear that so simply exemplifies how confused we are about food and our personal wellness.

By the time we look at the restrictive guidance of a paleo diet, ketogenic diet and vegan diet we have effectively said "Avoid all foods". The reality is fad diets do not immediately address the case specific part of your nutrition!

How do we measure progress?

Lets understand the data and use that knowledge to progress with purpose and genuine intentions!

Today we break down a poorly understood and heavily abused nutrient (toxin), Alcohol! It is common language to say that Drinking makes your "liver work" or that your body can "metabolize" 1 drink per hour, but most people have not put the pieces together on how that process fits, and interrupts other metabolic processes in the body.

So misunderstood. Regardless of your dietary preferences or decisions, it is imperative to understand the nutrients in our food. Carbohydrates are heavily generalized and lumped together, in a way that proves they are misunderstood. Take a moment to fully understand the word that is casually tossed around in conversations so may times per minute "gluten", "vegan" and "crossfit" all get jealous.

"Someone I know lost 30lbs in a month, so I want to do that".

What is with our obsession with rate of weight loss? We act as if the faster it comes off the more impressive it is. Or if we "get it over with" it will somehow be easier.

But isn't being a lighter version of yourself a result of living like a different version of yourself? So to be that person, you likely need to be there for good. Why then, would intense bursts of unsustainable habits be the desired route?

Weight loss is a side effect of lifestyle habits, and sustained weight loss is a result of finding enjoyment and passion from your new lifestyle habits.

"I want to lose Xlbs"

"I want to weigh Xlbs"

"I need to lose Xlbs"

Why? What is YOUR why? Is there a legitmate reason? Legitimate benefit?

All success is made easier when you have a clear purpose and motive.
