Nutrition
Nutrition is the process of eating and drinking that provides the body with critical nutrients to nourish our bodies. These nutrients in the right amounts support our body to grow, fight off illness, make decisions, move, and live well. Good nutrition is important to support our body's many extremely complex systems. Healthy eating gives our body its best chance at working well for our goals. This is because healthy eating includes a good balance of micro and macro nutrients that support healthy metabolism and physical processes in our body.

Your Jinjerli Getting Started Package

You don’t need to be vegetarian or vegan, but plants (and a variety of them), are essential on your journey. The more you can add them in, the easier it will be to meet your goals.

Why Plants?

  1. Nutrients

    Plants have nutrients you can’t get elsewhere. While multivitamins do exist, the body responds differently to them when they come from food.

  2. Feeling full

    Vegetables are typically low in calories for their weight. Generally you can eat more of them and reduce your overall calorie intake. This is why I generally say that if you are aiming to lose weight, aim for half your plate to be vegetables. It’s actually easier than you may think.

  3. Fibre and gut health

    This is how you get fibre – plants. Important for being regular but critical for gut health. Gut health is very important for many reasons.

    – to avoid malnutrition
    – as an important step to deliver nutrients to where they are needed – including systems involved in weight loss.
    – producing natural GLP-1 supporting weight loss
    – reducing the risk of gut disorders including cancers
    – immune health improves when the gut is healthy
