No wonder people are confused about nutrition.
We're teaching people to eat protein, reduce carbohydrates and fill their plates with vegetables, yet many have never been taught what proteins, carbohydrates and fats actually are.
A client recently came to me after seeing a dietitian and had been advised to eat:
✔️ Half a plate of protein✔️ 1/4 plate of carbohydrates✔️ 1/4 plate of vegetables
So I asked a simple question.
If you have protein and carbs on your plate, what category do vegetables fall into?
She didn't know.
And that's not a criticism of her. It's not her job to know. That's what she was paying a professional to teach her.
This is the problem I see every day.
People know they should eat more protein.
They know they should reduce carbs.
But they can't identify them on a plate.
They don't understand why they're eating them, what they do in the body, or how to build a meal properly.
I don't want my clients confused.
I want them to understand food.
Because when you understand food, you don't need to keep looking for the next diet, the next meal plan or the next set of rules.
You can make informed decisions for yourself.
And that's where real freedom starts.
