One Strike, You're Out (if only)

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!

How To

How do you navigate social situations when eating a plant-based diet

Transitioning to a plant-based diet inevitably requires navigating social situations, such as eating out with friends and family. To ensure you can stick to your chosen dietary lifestyle while still having enjoyable meals, take proactive steps before dining out. Verify the restaurant's vegan policies before you go.

Talk to your friends and family about vegan options. This will help you avoid ordering errors at the restaurant, as well as avoiding awkward explanations or misinterpretations about your dietary restrictions. You can have faith in your chef and trust their judgement when making vegan dishes. If necessary, you can chat with them to help them better understand your needs.

You can help make a difference by bringing along healthy snacks and drinks to vegan events. Your non-vegan relatives will soon be able to adopt a vegan diet. It is important to recognize the small gestures they make regarding a plant-based diet.

Even though it can seem daunting at first, it's possible to make friends and maintain a vegan lifestyle. Eventually, it becomes second nature; every effort put in results in gradual improvements, so start small and have faith in yourself!
