Are 3 Food Myths Keeping You Stuck? by Joan Kent, PhD
Many myths about food and nutrition exist, but the 3 below seem to come up over and over.
- Nutrition is just for weight loss.
Sure, weight loss is the main reason people modify their food. Sure, weight-loss information is available almost everywhere online. And much of it contradicts other weight loss info you’ll find online.
But good nutrition helps with many issues. For example:
• Do you have trouble recovering quickly after workouts? The right food plan can shift that completely so you’re ready to work out again the next day.
- Do you have high blood pressure, diabetes, pre-diabetes, high cholesterol, or other health problem? The right food plan can reverse those problems. Really.
- Do you have trouble falling asleep – or staying asleep all night? The right food tips can help ensure a great night’s sleep.
- Do you need more energy? Do your moods go up and down? The right food plan can help you manage and reverse either (or both) of those issues.
- Do you have trouble concentrating? The right food plan can help you focus and stay productive.
- Weight loss is just calories in/calories out. I can do it on my own.
Yes, you can do many things on your own. That includes decreasing calories. But foods are a lot more than their calories. The hormones they trigger may be much more significant.
It’s not true that all calories are equal. Changing what you eat can often make a bigger difference than decreasing how much. Input from a coach can really help.
- Uh-oh: It’s complicated and difficult.
It doesn’t have to be difficult. Small – easy – changes can produce big results.
But there’s a catch – you have to do it. Good coaching can help you make those small changes and get the results you want.
