Clean eating
Hello Nutritarian’s Kristen Hong considers some simple ways you can cleanse your diet
Even being plant based doesn’t make you immune to holiday overindulgences. With so many amazing vegan treats to be found at markets and in local restaurants (hello, vegan cronuts!) you may just be ready to ditch the rich, processed stuff and get back to basics.
Here are some ways you can start practicing eating clean that I promise are easy and delicious.
THINK NUTRIENTS OVER CALORIES
Forget about counting, restricting, or otherwise quantifying your calories. When you’re focusing on clean eating you want to be thinking about the nutrients in your food and letting that drive your decisions. It just so happens that the most nutrient-dense foods are also naturally low in calories. That’s why you can eat so much more food when you follow a high-nutrient, whole food plant based diet.
