Feeling like your eating plant based ? 🌱 Well turns out, maybe your not as Whole Foods as you thought. • ———————————- HERE ARE 5 SNEAKY INGREDIENTS TO AVOID BELOW. ❌ ———————————- • ❤️FOLLOW @THEODDFOODIE 4 DAILY TIPS/FACTS. 🌱UTUBE LINK IN BIO ❤️ • • 1️⃣ARTIFICIAL/NATURAL FLAVOURS 👅 . These 2 are in fact very similar. The only difference being one is entirely man made while the other is a chemical extract from “natural sources”. Both of them however, are formulas that contain anywhere between 50-100 ingredients 💯 ! Additionally, these extra ingredients are not as “pure or natural” as everything seems to think 🤔. • • • 2️⃣HONEY/AGAVE.. 🍯. Ahh this is quite a health fad. These “healthier” alternatives of sugar, aren’t actually that different at all! 🍪 They still contain lots of fructose, they spike your insulin lvls just as much & the “trace minerals” are practically nonexistent unless you consume them in a vast quantity. • • • 3️⃣EVAPORATED CANE JUICE 🥤. Quite a fancy name for plain sugar. All sugar is extracted from the sugar cane plant, the only difference is, white sugar is stripped from all TRACES of molasses. It’s basically just crystallized sucrose made to sound natural 🌱. • • • 4️⃣ARTIFICIAL FOOD DYES 🌈.. “Yellow 5”, “blue 1”... These are hidden in numerous of goodies. Used to give colour to products. Sadly, these food colourings have all been linked to cancer, brain tumors, allergic reactions etc. • • • 5️⃣HYDROGENATED FATS. Honestly, this deserves an entire post to itself 📝 . Search it up. You’ll understand that these fats are the type you should most certainly avoid. This is often used for its long shelf life in place of reg oil & because it’s cheaper. W/ no health benefits & numerous of disadvantages, they boost the saturated & trans fats in products, leaving your health in pieces. • • #veganfood #workoutmotivation #workoutmotivationtips #vegantips #weightlosstricks #weightlosstips #healthtips #workouttips #veganfitness #veganrecipes #easytips #healthyeating #lowfatrecipes #lowfatvegan #tricksandtips #healthyvegan #heathyveganfood #metabolism #newfacts #highcarbvegan #increasemetabolism #veganoilfree #plantbasedmuscle #veganlikeforlike #boostmetabolism

#Repost @theoddfoodie • • • Looking to get some more vitamins into your diet? Well here are 5 ways to absorb more nutrients from your food 🥘 . • • • 1️⃣Eat freshly picked locally grown food or Frozen ❄️. When things are freshly local/ frozen, they are chosen at their peak state & When aliments are at their peak state, they tend to contain much more nutrition. • • • 2️⃣Soak🚿, chop 🔪crush🔨, blend. Breaking down certain inhibitors in food that prevents full nutrient 🌱 bioavailability can be done by soaking your grains/beans/nuts 🥜 2+ hours, chopping 🔪 your veggies/fruit 🍎 crushing or blending your ingredients. • • • 3️⃣Know the best method to cook a certain food 🥦 . Boiling often loses the most nutrition out of certain ailments, while steaming can make some nutrients more bioavailable in other plants 🌱. Some veggies are best eaten raw though. So know the preferred method when it comes down to increasing it’s nutrition. • • • 4️⃣Chew 👄 food properly. Chewing not only makes food easier to digest but it also helps increase the nutrients received💪🏻. This is due to enzymes in your saliva 🤤that break down food into smaller particles. Therefore making the entire process involving macros/micros easier on your intestines. • • • 5️⃣Pair food correctly. For example: Iron with vitamin C. Adding healthy fats 🥑 to each meal allows your body to absorb fat soluble nutrients (vitamin A, D, K, E..) more efficiently. So add a little nuts 🥜 to that dish! • • • #veganfood #vegan #healthyfood #deliciousfood #wafflesunday #bananawaffles #berrywaffles #chocolatewaffles #veganlife #weightloss #healthtips #weighttips #deliciousness #peanutbutterbanana #fatloss #simplerecipe #veganfood #workoutmotivation #workoutmotivationtips #vegantips #advice #tips #weightlosstricks #weightlosstips #healthtips #workouttips #veganfitness #veganrecipes #beautyadvice #workoutadvice #easytips #funworkout #bored #naturaltips #healthyeating #healthylifestyle #highcarbvegan #lowfatrecipes #lowfatvegan #workout #tricksandtips #healthyvegan #heathyveganfood #lowfatvegan #howtodrinkmorewater #howtostopprocrastinating #newfacts #intuitiveeating #fitnessfacts #weightlosshacks #nutrientsmatter #vega
