Member-only story
I spent at least 50% of my time this week in my preventive cardiology clinic answering one of 2 questions from patients across the USA. The first question was “why have I never been told that I could improve my health by changing my diet?” and the second one was “it’s OK I have added meat and butter back into my diet since my heart attack, right?”. The lack of nutrition counseling in the current medical system (read more about this here) and the “keto craze” (read more about this here) are huge deficiencies that must be addressed by as many practitioners as possible. However there is no need to wait for your health care provider to get a Master’s in Nutrition. Here are 4 simple steps to start today and for the next month to see how your health can be upgraded 100%.
1) Study Recommended Food Plates World Wide
I have written before on the universal agreement about recommended food choices as represented by “food plates” previously. Study the food plates suggested by the USDA, Harvard School of Public Health, government of Canada and others. Since 2011 there is unity that guides rational food selections for optimal health.
