Clean Eating: Clean “Whole” Foods

As a Carmel Valley San Diego community resident I know and understand the importance of optimal health, cleaning eating, and its effects on other aspects of our lives. As a health food expert, I believe that most of your nutrition should come from “whole” real food and supplements will only be necessary if you are lacking them in your diet.

Variety is definitely the key to clean eating and getting a well balanced diet. Consider buying foods that are organic, free range, grass-fed, hormone free and wild. Whole foods shouldn’t be pasteurized, bleached, injected with hormones or go through eradication for the convenience of our supply and demand. This takes the quality out of food and yearn our body to seek more nutrition elsewhere. Knowing all the amazing foods that is out there and eating it in its most natural and nutritional state is the key to optimal health. I will go over on how food is fuel your body, but medicinal in every aspect of your life.

Knowing how to eat food in its most nutritious state, food combining, whether raw, steamed or cooked and when best to consume them is essential to your health goals. You will understand what are the best meats, poultry and fish out there for you to consume and choose from, as well as eating the healthy fats that is going to contraindicate all the health problems we have today. The more you know, you will be fearless about going out to eat at any of the top favorite restaurants. Clean eating has made a huge impact on my health, body and career. I feel better than I did when I was a teenager. I can live my life without feeling guilty about eating delicious foods. I’m more aware of how food affects me and I love sharing that knowledge with everyone I know and meet. I love this bean-free hummus recipe because its so nutritious and light and very versatile – you can add it to just about anything!

This whole-food dip is perfect for those who love the taste of hummus but are allergic to beans or find them difficult to digest. But being gentle to your tummy won’t mean having to sacrifice authentic taste.
