Food swaps to try out!
Here’s why they’re worth it 👌
✅ Sourdough or Sprouted Grain Bread are great choices because they’re easier to digest, lower in gluten, supports gut health, and helps stabilize blood sugar.
✅ Grilled or Baked Proteins lower your intake of inflammatory oils, plus those cooking methods help preserve nutrients.
✅ Infused Water and Herbal Tea help you stay hydrated without added sugars.
✅ Nuts and Seeds are snacks that support your immune system (just be sure to watch your portion sizes).
✅ A Square of Dark Chocolate (70%+ Cocoa) satisfies your sweet cravings and delivers a healthy dose of antioxidants.)

Drinking more water is GREAT... but if your water is full of plastic particles, bacteria, or filter gunk… you're not doing your body any favors.

Follow along this week for tips on drinking more water and keeping the water clean!
