Your daily nutrition is something everyone can improve on. Getting it regimented and ensuring you have consistency in that diet takes solid effort and preparation. Here are some tips to set that expectation for yourself, how to improve on it, and what other like-minded folks have done to accomplish healthier lifestyles.
If you are struggling to set aside ample time for food preparation
Preparing food is a major deterrent for most who don’t necessarily feel they have the time to set aside for it. Luckily, there are a few methods to expedite the process.
Buying food primarily for set recipes - Planning out your week ahead of time can make this process far easier on you. Allocating finances towards between five and seven main dinner plans a week will not only lower your overall cost for groceries, but also help you stay on track with food prep. Having everything laid out for you cuts downtime spent in the long term, and also simplifies each task to feel more consolidated.
Cutting down the frequency of eating out - Eating out is not only more expensive, but it also creates an expectation. That expectation is that you can always fall back to eating out, which will lower your desire and motivation for cooking at home. Any sort of prep time then feels like it’s more of a chore than anything.
Juicing - Another great option is juicing. This allows for nutrient intake to be expedited a great deal. Then, you won’t have to worry about the prep time as much either. All that is really necessary in terms of a time commitment is for cutting up fruits and vegetables, which then can be immediately juiced instead of being set aside for cooking later.
Juicing put into nutritional practice
There’s a common stigma that juicing may diminish a fruit or vegetable's nutritional value. However, this isn’t the case for most of the nutrients. Some of the fibers are lost in the process, but the greater part of the fruit or vegetable’s overall value is maintained.
