Get the Skinny | New Year, New Habits: Nutritional Changes that Work: Whole30 Diet

THE WHOLE30 DIET

 

2018 is a week and a half old, and with the New Year comes resolutions for new habits. And to help you kick off the “New Year, New You” theme, we’ve been Getting the Skinny with Registered Dietitian Molly Kimball on three popular approaches, including working with a registered dietitian and the Keto Diet, and today we’re digging in to the Whole30 program.

 

Molly’s Note: If you do try one of these popular diets, use it as an opportunity to help break and replace not-so-good habits, and to educate yourself and learn more about how you may respond to certain foods and ingredients so that you can make lasting behavioral changes that can stick around long after you’re “off” the diet.

 

Just as the Keto Diet (which we covered last week) takes low-carb eating to the extreme, the Whole30 program takes eating real food to the next level, as a temporary elimination diet, designed to serve as a reset button to re-train habits and taste buds.
