Keeping it simple is the goal of March and the goal for all Headliners and Rockstars who join me each week for fun, strength and to build energy to achieve many goals 1 day at a time! 🙂
When the Pandemic started in 2020 I said I would eat more colors of fruit and veggies through a healthy smoothie or snack in the morning, mid-morning and afternoon snacks…and maybe even a nighttime snack to settle down for a long winter’s nap
Fun references aside to a famous winter classic, let’s look at how we can eat more colors of fruit and veggies.
This idea of eating more colors of food has been around since longer than I have been here talking about it, that’s for sure. It comes in many names like the Mediterranean diet…but man do I dislike the word “Diet”.
This idea of eating more colors is not a “Diet” it is a healthy way to get you a little closer to your goals 1 fruit or veggie at a time!
It can be as simple as this:
-Apples (red)
-Beets (red)
-Oranges…?
-Bananas (yellow)
-Pineapple (yellow)
-Broccoli (green)
-Peanut Butter or peanuts (brown/…tan for the artist on this email haha)
With the use of fruits and veggies through the food rainbow we can give ourselves a fun boost with things like:
-Iron for strength and muscles health
-Dietary fiber for digestion
-Natural sugar for energy
-Vitamins and Minerals for many things like healthy skin, bone health, strength for long days at the office and a boost to the brain!
Next time you are at the most wonderful place in the world…the grocery store 🙂 Catch those colors Rockstar Nation!
