Some Nutrition myths and facts

Few people realize how important nutrition is, and it's not all about weight loss.  You can lose weight and be less healthy because you are not eating food that will feed your gut bacteria, energize your muscles, and strengthen your brain.  This is occurring in a lot of people on fad diets and taking GLP-1's.  The newer nutrition triangle, which replaces one that was antithetical to health, places fats, fiber, and fruits/vegetables in their correct place as being the very lynchpins of health, with processed foods, sugars, and fake fats being the poisons we should minimize.  We all have our treats, and that's fine, but the key is to focus most of the diet on the good stuff.  The best diet is often the very opposite of what doctors tell you: it's high fat and high carb, and it's important to know how to chose the most quality fats and carbs and avoid the rest.  "The greater the ignorance, the greater the dogmatism."  -William Osler, MDwww.returntohealing.com
