Parents please call or email me if you have any questions.
Hello. Hi my name is Mr. Caldwell and I introduced you to Dr. Diet today. He is a very special friend of mine and you really need to listen carefully to what he has to say. Dr. Diet could change your life for the better in the way you feel, sleep, think, act, play sports, and your grades. Below are a couple nuggets you will need to memorize. Let me know if you have any questions. We will talk about Dr. Diet over the next 4+ weeks. I am going to try and keep things simple as nutrition can be very confusing and overwhelming.
STUDENTS THE KEY IS TO MAKE SMALL CHANGES IN HOW YOU EAT AND DRINK AND THAT WILL ADD UP TO HUGE HEALTH BENEFITS. THE KEY IS TO EAT AS MANY FRESH FOODS AS POSSIBLE AND STAY AWAY FROM PACKAGED, PROCESSED JUNKY FOODS.
Examples Of:
Proteins-meats, fish, eggs, dairy, beans, nuts.
Carbohydrates-fruits, vegetables, cookies, bread, tortillas, chips.
Fats-fat in meat and dairy, avocado, different oils you cook with, nuts.
C.R.A.P Diet. C=junky carbohydrates R=refined foods A=additives P=preservatives
Eat Whole Foods
Such as fresh organic and free range meats, chicken, fish, free range eggs, raw or organic whole milk, goat/sheep/or cow’s milk cheese, fresh fruits and vegetables, nut’s, and healthy oils such as coconut oil, palm oil, and olive oil along with raw or grass fed butter. I am not a big fan of bread but a good company who does it right is Julian Bakery and you can buy their bread at Whole Foods Market or Mother’s Market.
Eat Organic
Remember organic foods are free of pecticides, chemicals, steroids and other bad stuff that can effect your health. In my opinion organic foods also have a higher nutrient content then conventional foods.
Hydration
I encourage you to drink more whole milk, fruit juice, coconut water, and water and stop or drink on occasion gatorade, coffee, energy drinks, and sodas. Remember the first 4 I named have a ton of nutrients in them that keep you health and strong. The junky drinks you like have tons of additives, colorings, caffeine, junky sugar and who knows what else that you do not need in your body.
