When you hear the word nutrition, you may think of buzz words like keto, paleo, intermittent fasting and smilar, but here are some simple nutrition habits.

Dinners served. Simple, easy and quick to prepare.

This is honestly my favorite meal lately due to how simple it is and the minimal prep to make.

Eating healthy doesn't necessary mean laboring in the kitchen, coming up with something complex or dreading eating foods you don't enjoy.

Starting with whole foods you know you enjoy is a great place to begin and grow outward from there.

As humans, we intellectually label things as good or bad to help simplify decision making and make things as "black or white" as possible.

However, with food, there really isn't a single food that comes close to checking off all the hypothetical requirements on our checklist of what defines a good food.

All foods have a yin yang, a positive or negative to them as foods may be high in one nutrient (carb, protein, fat, omega-3, omega-6, vitamin C, etc) but low in others.

Finding the balance is key, as we strive to meet our individual nutrient needs for our physical health and still enjoying the foods we love for our mental health.

Water! We all know its important and necessary for life, but chances are we are not getting enough.

Personally, I know I don't get enough and its a habit I'm personally working on for myself, so lets talk about how much and where you can get more.

To start, several factors help determine water needs like physical activity (exertion, time, type), diet, gender, caloric intake, fiber intake and environment (temperature, humidity, altitude).

While optimizing fluid intake is important, majority of individuals don't need to get as specific compared to athletes, which is why water intake is recommended in Adequate Intake, meeting majority of the population's needs.

A few ways to easily determine your fluid needs include:

- Follow current recommendations for men (19 years and older) to consume 3 liters (101 oz or ~13 cups of fluids)

- Follow current recommendations for women 19 (years and older) consume 2.2 liters (74 oz or ~9 cups of fluids)

- 1/2 you body weight in ounces (Recommend for those of ideal body weight)

- Consume 1 ml of water per calorie ingested (240mL in 8 ounces FYI)

Now that we know our needs, several sources we can count towards our fluid intake include:
- High quality H20
- Milk
- Coffee
- Teas
- Juices/Sports Drinks
- Sodas

As you may be able to guess, some of these examples are more ideal than others as we need to moderate sodas, high calorie juices, milks and sports drinks, but all contribute to fluid intake and can be optimized at certain times.

Hoped this helped and cheers to staying hydrated!

*Disclaimer, this is strictly for daily needs, we are not calculating in the other factors mentioned as that is another post I'll address in the future.

👋 Hi everyone, I'm Paxton and I'm a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and personal trainer thru the American College of Sports Medicine.

I am also the owner of Peak Nutrition and Performance LLC, located in the Dallas, TX region, where we build custom nutrition/fitness programs to help optimize individuals health in all walks of life!

This got started because nutrition and training needs to be personalized to that individuals goals and circumstance, rather than you the client conforming to unnecessary diet restrictions or excessive hours in the gym.

Everyone's situation is different and demands accommodations in program design to make it work for you.

If you have ever tried a diet or fitness program to only stop after a short time and abandoning the program all together, you know what I mean.

My goal for all my clients is to help them optimize their health through nutrition, fitness performance, lab panels, medical nutrition therapy, gut health, supplements (if needed), habit formation, and more, which can be found on my website linked in the bio.

If this is for you, schedule a free consult via the website and I would love to get to know your story!

Facts about me so you can get to know me a little more personally

- I'm actively pursuing a better relationship with Christ
- Enjoy metal music
- Obsessed with all things cats
- Studying to become a Board Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics
- Aspiring Tequila and Whiskey connoisseur
