Seasonal Transitions are so important. You may notice that about 3 weeks before a new season begins, your cravings and what you desire to eat start to change. As the weather is cooling and there is that late summer chill in the air, you may feel a pull to eat more building foods – more protein-rich foods, a little more essential fats (such as nuts and nut butter) than during spring and summer and warming fuel from whole grains (oatmeal, brown rice), steamed vegetables and more cooked food like soups and curries. It is important to listen to these subtle cues that the body provides.
The cold and flu season is upon us, and our diet is our first line of defense. If we stay too long in our light, cooling, higher carbohydrate, summer diet and continue to eat and drink excess sugar and alcohol and don't begin this building phase, we can be more prone to getting sick and imbalanced.
