Person A: (How the average woman views healthy eating)


Breakfast - Oatmeal & coffee (no sugar just cream)


Snack- peanut butter crackers


Lunch- Sweet potato w/ Broccoli


Dinner- Salad with egg, cheese and chicken


Calories: 730  Carbs: 100  Protein: 30 grams  Fat: 20


Macro Nutrient breakdown:  Carb: 60%  Protein: 18%  Fat: 12%


** Most people would consider this healthy


———————————————————————


Person B: (This is closer to how you should be eating)


Breakfast- 3 cage free boiled eggs, 15 grapes (6:30 am)


Snack- High quality grass fed protein shake w/ only water (9:30am)


Lunch- Sliced tomato and 4 ounces grass fed grilled chicken or chicken wings (12:45 pm)


Snack- Half of a grass fed protein drink (only almond milk) (4:15 pm)


Dinner- Wild caught Fried Fish, 17 pieces of fried okra (7:30pm)


Near bedtime snack- Wine 🍷 (Yup..wine)


Calories: 1100 ,  Carbs: 45,  Protein: 90 grams and  Fat: 40


Macronutrient breakdown:  Carb: 20%  Protein: 40%  Fat: 40%


Analysis A: When you eat like person A sure you will lose weight in the beginning because the calories are lower. This is a recipe for adaptive thermogenesis... Also... look at the numbers. 60% of your total calories consumed, come from carbs. This is not a winning formula, especially when you want to tone up.


Analysis B : Notice woman B eats slightly more. BUT... the source of her calories are different. See, your body uses different nutrients differently. Your body uses protein for its job and it uses carbs for its job.


If you are eating low calorie but most of those calories, or even half of those calories are from carbs the body cannot use all of those carbs. They will be stored as fat. And the lower your calories the more fat you will store over time. Excess carbs turn into fat.

Adam The Nutritionist Vitamin D
By Adam The Nutritionist November 20, 2023
Introduction- Vitamin D: The vitamin & Hormone ⬇️ Vitamin D or Cholecalciferol. The name has "chole" attached to it because cholesterol is tied to it...meaning you need cholesterol to have good Vitamin D and vice-versa. 🙂 Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that has two forms: vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. Fat soluble means that the vitamin requires proper amounts of fat to be absorbed properly- they are stored in fatty tissue. Although many doctors may give an injection/pill of the vitamin D2 form, this form doesn’t have long-lasting effects in the body. The body prefers vitamin D3, which you can only get from the sun and animal products naturally. Vitamin D is the only vitamin that can be obtained from sunshine – and the only vitamin that is considered a hormone. Vitamin D2 may be found in some plant foods as well as some supplements. Vitamin D3 is found in animal foods, eggs, fish and in supplements. Be aware that the supplement Vitamin D3 is not always the same as getting it from food. "The body prefers vitamin D3.. which you can only get from the sun and animal products naturally. "
