Calories don’t matter as much as we think. 🌱 What you eat matters: Whole foods. Nutrient-dense. Satisfying. 🌱 How you eat matters: Slowly. Mindfully. In community. Don’t chase calorie numbers. Chase healing, balance, and satisfaction through real food. What do you focus on when choosing your food?

For those who take in supplements for various reasons.. read the labels when you buy these supplements and make sure they’re good for you.. the idea is digestion, absorption and assimilation.. also, preventing intoxication.. it’s all a factor of quality, people.. you don’t want to eat wrong things in high amounts, your body wouldn’t like that..

Let this diagram help you.. also, if you can help it or if it can be helped in any way, I’d rather you eat a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, than consume these pills.. highly refined nutritive components aren’t as good as you’d want them to be.. also watch out for the sources of these refined ingredients.. or substances.. your body might not agree with it all simply because it came from the wrong place.. it’s a temple, after all.. an investment.. treat it well.. 👌🏾

These foods provide non-heme iron, which is not as easily absorbed as heme iron found in meat, but can still be a great source of iron for vegetarians and vegans.

Iron is an essential mineral that helps carry oxygen throughout the body and supports immune function. Adequate iron intake can also improve energy levels and cognitive function.

Eating iron-rich plant-based foods along with vitamin C-rich foods like citrus fruits or bell peppers can help improve the absorption of non-heme iron.
