Main Benefits so far: Decreased Inflammation Improved Digestion (After a few days of some metabolic/digestive system shifts with some discomfort) I’m not hungry or craving anything for upwards of 6 hours after I eat which is a clear indicator to me that my body is being deeply satisfied. I’ve even been able to easily say no to cookies at work, candy at trunk or treat with the kids, and to pizza and doughnuts and chips and popcorn for a kids Halloween movie night get-together we hosted! Got out to Healthy Living Farm to pick up some of the highest quality animal products in our area and got to tour the farm with my kids and my mom which is always heart-warming! This is the practice here, testing and retesting! I’ll post more of what I’m eating in the group throughout the week! Happy Sunday!!

I try to be non-dogmatic when it comes to nutrition. I believe in a Whole Food approach that eliminates or at least significantly limits “food products” that come in Bags, Boxes & With Bar Codes. ❌ Refined Grains (Flour products & Baked Goods) ❌ Refined Sugars (Added Sugar, Juices, Sodas, Candy) ❌ Refined Oils (Vegetable/Seed Oils) And heavily emphasizes ✅ Whole Animal Foods (Meats, Eggs, **Dairy as tolerated**, Organ Meats, Bone Broths & Stocks & Animal Fats such as Butter, Ghee, Tallow) ✅ Whole Fresh Fruits ✅ Whole Raw and Properly Prepared Vegetables (To Limit Anti-Nutrients and Optimize Digestibility) ✅ Whole Nuts & Seeds (Preferably Soaked/Sprouted) ✅ Whole Grains as Tolerated This week I decided to run a mini-personal diet experiment as I often do, to explore my own metabolism, digestion, and to FEEL the outcomes that come along with various diet models. Currently I’m limiting myself to ONLY whole animal foods and whole fresh fruits, and am noticing benefits even just within only the first 3 full days eating this way. Let me know if you would be interested in running some small group diet experiments/trials to promote even higher accountability!! I believe this level of curiosity, experimentation and exploration is one of the biggest keys to MASTERING METABOLISM!!
