THE EAT-CLEAN DIET, by Tosca Reno, B. Sc., B. Ed.
"Okay," says Tosca. "I have to admit it. The Eat-Clean Diet isn't really a diet at all. In fact, people are always amazed at the variety and quantity of food I eat!"
Eating Clean is not about deprivation. It's not about giving up one food group or another. Eating Clean is about giving your body what it needs to thrive.
Do you have days when you lack energy? When you feel listless?
Is your hair brittle or lifeless?
Is your skin dull? Do you have blotches or dark circles under your eyes?
Eating Clean will not only help you finally lose your extra fat, it will give you:
Tons of energy
Shiny, lustrous hair
Clear, healthy-looking skin
Have you recently spent any time with young children? Makes you tired just looking at them, with all their energy, doesn't it? No more! Once you start Eating Clean you'll be racing those kids to the playground. Within days of starting this eating plan you will realize the way you were supposed to be feeling all this time. You will find a joie de vivre that you never dreamed possible.Not only will you feel great, you'll be eating like crazy! You will never skip meals and you'll have at least two snacks a day. You will get to know which foods are the lifeblood that sustains you and makes you whole, and which foods to steer clear of because of the way they destroy your body.
You have only one body. It's yours for life. If your body spends all its time trying to rid itself of the garbage you put into it, how will it perform optimally? What you put into it dictates every moment of every day. It dictates whether you are lean, overweight, or obese. It dictates whether you have energy to spare or find yourself falling asleep at your desk. When you give your body everything it needs, it will run along so smoothly you won't even give it a second thought... that is, until you catch a glimpse of yourself in a window and think about how amazing you look.
Beginner Clean-Eating Tips:
Eat five-six portion-controlled meals a day
Drink lots of water (96oz a day minimum to change body composition)
Steer clear of sugar and high-fat foods
Eat the food that God gave us, not the "food" that humans created in laboratories
