It's the source of the carbs that matter. So no, a carb is not just a carb. It is either a complex carb or a simple carb.

Russet potatoes are one of the highest sources of potassium, significantly higher than bananas. And include prebiotics and probiotics for your gut.  So don't cut potatoes out of your life.

Give yourself two to four weeks, shifting your coffee drinks to something less sweet, and I guarantee you're going to get more used to it.

Not all oils are the same. Always opt for an extra virgin where you can. 

The truth is, there's very little scientific evidence that saturated fat in moderate amounts has any negative impact on our health. This is a fact. 

Just because somebody gets smaller does not mean they are getting healthier. 

I tend to recommend for my clients to not add the grams from collagen supplements into their daily protein intake because there's a good chance that it is not going to be absorbed at that amount of grams and utilized for muscle. 

If the protein is incomparable to the amounts of carbs and fats involved in it's probably a treat.

You want to think of your food as nourishment and fuel, not as just the next thing to eat to get by, because that's going to give you a body that's just getting by.
