Bathing Suit Season - A Nutritional Guide
Spring is in the air and ? summer is around the corner! I know a lot of people have been contacting me about getting themselves and their bodies ready for da-da- DUM ?BATHING SUIT SEASON. For those of us who live in the more northern part of the country and did not goanywhere tropical during the last six months, this can be an intimidating time. Ourskin (and everything underneath it) has been tucked away, protected and hiddenbeneath beautiful sweaters and warm scarves. Now it is time to let every part of youtake a deep breath of summer sun. Here we go! Bathing Suit Season - a Nutritional Guide Two important concepts to keep in mind when looking at your food in preparationfor your summer self is 1) to start, try to love your body right where it is now 2) bewilling to allow your food habits to change. Take into consideration that your bodyWANTS to change what it is eating. As mentioned in previous editions thespringtime is the perfect time for the body to "go light". If you listen closely I betyou can hear your body asking for different food, lighter food, and less food. Toallow yourself to make these changes follow these guidelines: 1) Do Not Skip Meals -Eat small meals or snacks containing some PROTEINevery few hours to keep blood-sugar levels steady. Do not to let more than 3 hoursgo between eating. This will help keep your blood sugar stable and avoid ravenoushunger which often leads to overeating. Low blood sugar and extreme hunger are adangerous combination. 2) Keep Healthy Snacks Around - whether you like crunch, salt or sweet,take care and prep ahead to have some energy rich? food available for yourself. Theworst type of pre-summer sabotage is stopping somewhere UNKNOWN for just ALITTLE SOMETHING to HOLD YOU OVER. Use some of these Healthy Snack Ideas orcreate your own. Crunch? lite popcorn, or plain popcorn popped in paper bag in microwave/ oruse coconut oil to pop in a covered pan ? frozen grapes ? 1 - 2 hard pretzels - the large Bavarian variety ? apple ? carrots - particularly the super sweet, organic baby carrots Sweet ? organic carrots (category cross over on this one!) ? organic yogurt and over ripe fruit - all kinds of flavors to enjoy? fresh, whole fruit ? leftover grains - (i.e. brown rice, quinoa, spelt) drizzle maplesyrup and cinnamon; add soy milk and bananas, heat and enjoy warmoatmeal-like porridge, cook grains in fruit juice (i.e. apple), ? smoothies - mix any of the following - whatever you have in thekitchen: fruit, ice?soy milk, yogurt, protein powder, carob powder,fruit juice, etc? Salty ? tortilla chips and fresh salsa - try whole grain chips such as"Garden of Eatin" Brand in health food stores and try freshly madesalsa vs. shelved and processed stuff. ? pickles ? fresh lime/lemon juice as seasonings or in beverage 3) Dandelion Greens - That's right. This pesky flower has leaves that are amagic component of winter weight loss. This common "weed" of the compositefamily is a powerful restorative to the liver. It's also rich in minerals like calcium,iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorous, potassium, selenium and zinc, as wellas vitamins B1, B2, B3,and C. Ounce for ounce, dandelion contains more carotenethan carrots. Dandelion also cleanses the blood and liver (the organ most associatedwith Spring in Traditional Chinese Medicine), and increases bile production. Goclean to get lean! 4) Fruits - Fruits are cool and juicy, so they get you the water you need tostay hydrated and they also provide the vitamins and nutrients that fat-free snackfoods don't. Eating a lot of fruit does not work for everyone, but if you are a personwho does well with fruit "Spring Lightening" can include eating a lot of fruits.
