322: How Nutrient-Depleted Is Our Food Today and What We Can Do About It? w/ Jenn Trepeck

If You Are Ready To Make Some Changes In The Way You Prioritize Nutrients, You Should:

Make sure to pick your food from the fridge first

Teach your kids the difference between energizing foods and energy-zapping foods

Choose foods that are going to support all of the pieces of your life

 
The Nutrition Education You Are Supposed to Know but Were Never Taught
Jenn Trepeck, a “force of nature” in wellness, is an Optimal Health Coach specializing in weight management. The Founder of Better Life Now LLC and host of Salad with a Side of Fries Podcast, Jenn works to pay her knowledge forward and reach a larger audience, teaching the nutrition education we are all supposed to know but no one ever taught us. Jenn’s mission is to change the state of healthcare as a Certified Transitions Lifestyle Coach and Consultant with nutraMetrix Custom Health Solutions.
 
Think Global, Act Local
Have you ever stopped to consider why the apples or bananas you are buying in the store were grown and shipped to you from the other side of the world? This is because we have lost touch with the nutritional power of eating locally and seasonally. While this started as an attempt to create efficiencies in the way we grow and access food, it has harmed the fundamental nutritional components of these foods. So even if you think you are making healthy choices, you may not be getting all the nutritional benefits you think you are. This is why it is important to make choices as a conscious consumer to feed your body better and shift how our food is produced.
 
Becoming a Conscious Consumer
Jenn wants you to make decisions with both your dollar and your fork by shopping local, eating seasonally, and advocating for organizations involved in providing access to fresh foods in your community. 
Being a conscious food consumer does not have to be complicated or expensive; all it takes is a commitment to reverse the metabolic epidemic we are seeing in this country and seek out foods that give you proper nutrition. Food provides us energy, which in turn impacts everything else. By bridging the gap between how our food is produced and how it is serving us, we can relieve our symptoms and improve our nutrition for everyone
 
Quotes:
“Our system teaches us to look at everything in isolation, but the reality is everything is so connected, in nature and in the body.” (8:32)
“Even if we were to eat all of the things that we are supposed to eat, and never eat the things that deplete our body, we are still not getting the nutrients we think that we are from all of our healthy choices. And it doesn’t mean don’t eat the broccoli, of course. But it means that we might have to have an even greater commitment to nutrition, and potentially supplementation, to help support our bodies proper function.” (12:07)
“Moderation and living life, absolutely. But understanding fundamentally what we are giving our body through our food choices is paramount.” (33:31)
