INPUT (how you Fuel your body)

• Increase water, fresh vegetables, lean protein, and healthy fats (ex. olive oil, avocado, almonds).

• Decrease carbohydrates and sugars from artificially processed foods and sweets.

• Of all the dietary lifestyles out there, the one with the most robust evidence is the Mediterranean Diet. A great Beginner's Guide can be found at www.everydayhealth.com/mediterranean-diet/guide.

• As they say in business, "What gets measured gets managed." Download a calorie tracking app like MacroFactor (macrofactorapp.com) or MyFitnessPal (myfitnesspal.com) and track your daily intake.

• Consider practicing Intermittent Fasting, which has been linked to accelerated weight loss, inflammation reduction, reduced cholesterol, lower blood sugar, and better insulin sensitivity. This link provides a great overview: https://jamesclear.com/the-beginners-guide-to-intermittent-fasting.
