Cultivating mindfulness during food prep and mealtime (even with distractions), building an attainable meal plan, shifting shopping habits, decoding nutritional information, and optimizing snack choices.

WEEK FOUR | Mythbusters

Seeing through marketing BS around health and dieting, moderation and nuance in eating, fad diets, and examining the evidence on different approaches to eating.

WEEK FIVE | Fat is not a four-letter word

Incorporating the best fats into your diet to be healthier, learning to listen to your body, up-leveling your meals using savvy substitutions, and how your body processes different kinds of food.
