SHOP w/the DOC, making healthy shopping EASY!

Well the kick off to the 40 DAY CHALLENGE was this morning, and the energy was SUPER CHARGED. We had a lot of great questions about what to eat and where to shop and what a great place to start by going grocery shopping. I know it can be daunting and a little stressful when you think about walking into your grocery store and having to search for these different foods or produce. The truth is, that’s one great thing about Maximized nutrition, it’s easy and simple. You will literally know exactly what to get out of your fridge and pantry and what to put back in. We gave you those trouble-free guidelines and shopping lists so that you’ll walk into your grocery store feeling confident about what you have to buy and what to avoid. Once you follow the shopping list of foods to get and stock your kitchen up with all these great healthy foods, things will become quite simple. You can shop easily because you will have the instructions on what you should buy organic and things are safe to buy non-organic. You will have a list of the Clean Fifteen and the Dirty Dozen. These two lists cover the fruits and vegetables that you should buy organic because their pesticide load is very high and which fruits and vegetables are ok to buy non-organic.

Did you know that apples have 50-60 pesticide residues on them? A good suggestion is to buy apples organic but things like avocadoes are very low on the pesticide load so they are ok to buy non-organic. For the foods you should buy organic, you will also have a list of places that you can go to. Many grocery stores actually have an organic section in their produce area. Some grocery stores also have a natural food isle as well. The more we eat better and healthier, the more stores will bring in the foods we want.

Sometimes even with all the lists and guidelines, we still feel a little anxiety about shopping. We are going to help you make it easier than you think. On Wednesday February 16th, from 6:30-7:30pm, we are going to take a group of our 40 DAY CHALLENGERS and patient on a Grocery Store Tour. You will learn to avoid the Hidden Health Hazards. You will also learn how to easily navigate the store to save time and money while shopping for healthy foods. We’ll help you discover how to eat healthy on a budget and how to stock your kitchen with foods your whole family will love.

We will be going to COSTCO on McGillivray & Kenaston for our SHOP W/THE DOC, our grocery store tour. Dr Dave will be giving you a tour of where to go and what to buy. He’ll also give you some tips on what to avoid and how to make shopping as quick and easy as possible.
