Living healthy is about much more than what you eat. It's about finding a balance between body, mind, and spirit.

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

Can I eat egg on a plant-based food diet?

No, eggs are not permissible on a plant-based diet. This diet excludes meat, fish and poultry as well as eggs. However, many vegan alternatives to traditionally egg-centric dishes can be found that offer the same taste and texture but don't use animal products. For example, tofu scrambles or omelets make great breakfast dishes with the same look and feel as eggs while providing plant-based protein; chickpea flour or mashed up banana can replace eggs as binding agents in baked goods; and aquafaba (the liquid found in a can of chickpeas) can act as a vegan egg white alternative when making meringues or other desserts. Additionally, egg replacers like flaxseed meal or chia seeds mixed with water substituted for one large egg can help keep non-vegan recipes intact without sacrificing taste.

How To

How to make sure you're getting enough protein on a plant-based diet?

The right ingredients can make sure that you get enough protein from a plant-based diet. Foods such as legumes, nuts, seeds, tofu, tempeh, and quinoa are excellent plant-based protein sources. These foods should be included into your daily diet. Superfoods such as spinach and goji berries are great for your nutritional intake.

A vegan diet should include plant-based foods, such as protein powders, nuts, and collagen peptides. They can also be added to smoothies and other recipes. If you don’t feel like you’re getting enough protein by eating only plant-based proteins, then you should consider supplementation with high quality supplements. High-quality pills, capsules and tablets can provide you with the exact amount you need.

If you make an effort to incorporate plant-based foods into your meals in many ways, vegans can quickly meet their daily nutrition requirements.
