Eat Healthy With These 2 Simple Rules

Healthy eating can be overwhelming. Make things simple with these two rules. [x_video type="16:9, 5:3, 5:4, 4:3, 3:2" m4v="" ogv="" poster="" hide_controls="" autoplay="" embed='' no_container="true"]

If You Can't Make It, Don't Eat It

This simple rule is an easy way to cut out all of the fake food out there. If you couldn't recreate the food or meal in your kitchen, then it's probably not that great for you. This also includes processed "healthy" foods.

If You Can Make It, You Probably Should Be

Making food yourself is cheaper, healthier, and it tastes way better! Instead of clearing out your fridge and pantry, try changing one food at a time. This way, you can really get it figured out and you don't have to feel overwhelmed or stressed out. Homemade hummus is a great place to start!
