start with small attainable goals

Making a commitment to improve nutrition is exciting and can also feel overwhelming at the same time.

Here are some things to keep in mind to have this attempt at better nutrition become sustainable!

- Nutrition changes will likely involve a change in food choice or food preparation behavior.

- Trying to apply many new behaviors at once may be overwhelming and lead to frustration or sense of inability to see the changes through.

- First, focus on hydration with water. Hydration has many health benefits, which includes mental clarity, satiety regulation, bowel function, and even sleep quality - all which also have profound impacts on metabolism!

- Focus on the quality of nutrition, over quantity.

- Select minimally-processed to unprocessed foods, avoid sugar-sweetened beverages, and enjoy fiber-rich foods!

Starting with these two main principles: 1) Hydration and 2) maximizing the quality of your food, will most certainly boost health!
