Are 3 Food Myths Keeping You Stuck? by Joan Kent, PhD
Many food and nutrition myths exist, but the 3 below come up among prospective clients over and over. Let’s take a look.
- Nutrition is important only for weight loss.
True, weight loss is probably the main reason people modify their nutrition. Yes, plenty of weight-loss information is available online — and much of it contradicts other info you’ll find.
But good nutrition can help with many issues. For example:
• Do you have trouble recovering quickly after workouts?
The right food plan can reverse that completely.
- Do you have high blood pressure, diabetes, pre-diabetes, or other health problems?
The right food plan can reverse those problems completely, as well.
- Do you experience mood swings? Or feel as if you have no energy?
Once again, the right food plan can help you manage and reverse either (or both) of those issues.
- Weight loss is just calories in/calories out. I can do it on my own.
You can do many things on your own, including decreasing calories. But foods are much more than the calories in them. The hormones they trigger may be far more significant.
It’s not true that all calories are equal. Often, changing what you eat can make a bigger difference than decreasing how much.
- Uh-oh: Major changes required. It’s too complicated and too hard.
It doesn’t have to be hard. Seriously. It’s absolutely possible to make small — easy — changes that produce big results.
But there’s a catch. You have to do it! And sometimes a good coach can help you make those small changes so you can be sure to get the results you want.
