Our DNA is programmed for diet variation because our ancestors were forced to change their diet based on the climate, time of year, food availability, etc. ☀️🍂❄️🌦️
•
The key is varying the proportion of food groups, your meal timing, and amounts your eating! (Although overconsumption of starches/sugars is never a great idea)
•
That means alternating between periods of fasting, feasting, and cycling the amounts of plant vs animal foods your consuming. •
•
Diet variation will lead to hormone optimization. That is really the key because our hormones dictate weather we will store fat or burn fat, our energy levels, our metabolic rate, our overall health, and most importantly: how we feel everyday! 🙌🏼
•
By creating adaptation in your body by having variation in your diet you release #growthhormone and #norepinephrine which provide anti-inflammatory effects, anti-aging benefits, and a better healing response in our bodies. •
•
Your cells also become more sensative to hormones which is the key to losing weight, having more energy, preventing/reversing certain chronic diseases, & living a longer, healtheir life! 💪🏼
•
Variation in diet, exercise, & acute stress (think sauna, ice baths, etc.) are the safest and most reliable ways to naturally boost these anti-aging & health promoting hormones in the body. •
•
This is nothing short of life changing and I highly urge you to incorporate this diet variation technique for long-term, SUSTAINABLE results! •
•
This is why it's important not to get overly attached to any dietary camp (even if it's helped you in the past) and know that our bodies are constantly changing & adapting. •
•
There are underlying principles that do apply to everyone regardless of these details, and I cover these in my new book coming out later this fall! (Keep an eye out for more updates on that) •
•
I realize this can be confusing & challenging to navigate on your own, which is why working with a qualified health professional can greatly help. •
•
If you want to learn more about working with me, shoot me a message and I'll be happy to chat with you more about that 👍🏼
