FULL DAY OF EATING TO STAY LEAN | 15 minute meals

At Paleovsketo, we believe this starts with being aware of all the ingredients and sources in what we consume daily.

By understanding how our diet works together with our lifestyle and habits, we can begin the journey to better health.

It's not just about eating the right food; it's also about developing positive behaviors for lasting changes.

The key is basically learning to trust yourself and your intuition when it comes to deciding what’s best for your body.

For example, instead of trying a certain trend because everyone else is doing it or looking at calorie counts on packaging labels while shopping, focus on maintaining an overall healthy mindset and getting into the habit of aiming for a wholesome diet made up of mostly whole foods.

This will bring clarity around choosing better options no matter where you are or what’s available.

Ultimately, only you know what fits within your life and dietary needs - so have faith in yourself!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Mediterranean diet too expensive?

The Mediterranean diet is typically inexpensive and has easily available ingredients. Local grocery stores and farmers' markets have many staple foods. Shopping for organic products, premium proteins or specialty items like extra virgin olive oil, can prove more costly. It is important to set aside a budget for your meals so that you can plan your meals accordingly. Also, you can save money by using leftovers from other meals and bulk-freezing foods like fish and grain.

How can I get started with the Mediterranean diet?

Get started on the Mediterranean diet by stocking up your kitchen with fresh fruits and veggies. This could mean that you prepare different vegetables and protein every week, which can then be used in recipes the following day. Whole grains like quinoa or oat grattas and millet make great substitutes for refined grain. To add flavor and nutrients to meals, healthy fats like olive and sesame need to be used in the meal preparation. Seasonings such as garlic, basil, oregano and turmeric are great additions to your meals. They also help to reduce the amount of sugar and salt.

Can the Mediterranean Diet be made gluten-free?

Yes, you can adapt the Mediterranean Diet to be gluten-free. It is possible to incorporate gluten-free grains into your meals, instead of whole-grain carbohydrates such as barley or wheat. Additional gluten-free options include fruits like melon, pears and fresh vegetables as well as legumes, nuts, seeds and nuts. Individuals with gluten intolerance to milk or dairy may benefit by choosing lactosefree products. Another option is to have porridge instead.

Can I drink alcohol on a Mediterranean diet?

It is possible to have moderate amounts of alcohol as part the Mediterranean diet. The recommended daily limit for alcohol consumption is 1 glass per person for women and 2 for men. Dry wines, beer, and spirits with natural ingredients like brandy, vodka or whiskey are all acceptable drinks. Because of their high sugar content, avoid heavy spirits like cocktails. Incorporating water or herbal teas into your daily diet can help you stay hydrated and reduce your desire for sugary drinks.
