Eat protein first and optimize your intake before anything else. Then add non-starchy vegetables, fruit, and a small amount of slow, low-impact carbs.
Here’s the simple rule: the more fat you eat, the less carbs you should have. The more carbs you eat, the less fat. High carb and high fat together is the fastest way to store fat.
And carbs are something you earn. Beyond vegetables and fruit, your intake should reflect your activity level, stress, and how your body handles blood sugar.
People under higher stress often do better with more carbs, while those dealing with insulin resistance typically need less.
There’s no one-size-fits-all, but there is a right structure.
Build your plate this way, and everything else starts to work better.
