We knew that anyway didn’t we?

Haha! Can I get an Amen! 🙌🏼 I mean, sorry romain lettuce but if the powers that be say you caused an E.coli outbreak AND instead I can eat dark chocolate for its antioxidant effect…I’m all in. 😂
Seriously though, let’s step back and look at the bigger picture of dietary dogma, shall we? 🖐🏼
I’m often asked my opinion on how to eat or what I eat. I get asked about being paleo, Keto, fasting, intermittent fasting, fasting mimicking diet, vegan…etc. 🤔
The truth is, you can try them all out and see what works for you. Just because it’s popular on social media or has a lot of research behind it doesn’t mean your body read that research and agrees with it. 🤯
So if you’re currently trying out a way of eating and you feel worse, stop it. I’ll give you a personal example, I’m always gluten and soy free. Always. I’m 85-90% dairy free. I feel good when I do this. 🙌🏼
I do intermittent fasting. I had done 12-13 hours from dinner to breakfast for years. In 2017 into 2018 I thought I would try longer and go 15-16 hours. Not my best move. My body could do it but I felt like I was always getting this side eye girlfriend warning from my body like, “girl we got you but knock this off and go eat.” 👀
I didn’t feel great when I did it despite what I read so I’m back to 12-13 hours! 🙂

I’ve also done Keto and properly checked to make sure I was in ketosis. That made me a STARK RAVING BITCH. Not worth it. I tried it twice. So I stopped that. 🤬
My point is, if you’re new to this and you’re reading about it on social media, first try to work with a functional practitioner or Naturopathic doctor who can guide you better. But most importantly, if you’re not feeling the new plan after trying it PROPERLY for some time then *maybe* it’s not for you. 🤭
There is NO one size fits all. I mean, some people don’t like dark chocolate! 😮 #weirdos#justkidding#kindof . 🤗
