Hey folks, Board-Certified Health Coach Chloe Maleski is here to answer your questions about intuitive eating. Wondering what intuitive eating is and whether it's Primal? We're here with guidance and support! Have a question you'd like to ask our health coaches? Leave it below in the comments or over in the Mark's Daily Apple Facebook group. Janice asked: "I'm thinking about doing an intuitive eating program. What's better? That or Primal? Can I do both? I'm confused!" First, you're not alone, Janice! It's easy to be confused by the many approaches to diet and eating out there—many of which offer contradictory advice. An important thing to keep in mind is that no one way of eating is optimal for everyone. What's "better" or "best" for you depends on many factors, including individual characteristics and conditions, health and wellness goals, and factors related to resources and accessibility. That said, there are certainly some foods and eating patterns that are detrimental to pretty much everyone. When it comes to health, longevity, and vitality, a diet full of sugar, highly refined seed oils, fast food, and processed food is never a good idea! On the flip side, eating in ways that more closely match what our ancestors ate is far more likely to support healthy outcomes. On the most basic level, we're really just talking real, whole food in its most natural state or with minimal processing. Think: Animal protein, including ethically raised meat and organ meat, poultry, fish, and eggs free of added hormones and antibiotics Vegetables and fruits Moderate quantities of nuts and seeds Healthy fats, including grass-fed butter, animal fat, avocado oil, and coconut oil (to name a few) The above are Primal staples and give our body what it needs to thrive—not just survive. When eating in this way consistently over time, people usually become intuitive eaters in the sense of knowing what their body wants and when they are actually hungry. As a result, they're less likely to engage in comfort eating or emotional eating out of stress, worry, boredom, or just plain habit. Generally, this is not the case when we eat a diet full of "modern" foods that disrupt our endocrine system and metabolism while contributing to systemic inflammation. Grains and sugar are a major culprit in this regard. It's hard if not impossible to "eat intuitively" if these foods have disrupted our body's signaling system and desensitized us to the natural sweetness in whole foods as well as to feelings of hunger and satiation. Because of their very physiological impact on our endocrine system and insulin levels, grains and sugar promote cravings for, well, more grains and sugar! Primal Eating = Eating Intuitively All that's to say, Primal eating is eating intuitively. This is especially the case if you commit to eating Primal in a consistent way, plus follow the other Primal Blueprint Laws. Those, alongside food choices, influence our body's hormonal signaling system and determine whether we're in touch with what we actually want … Continue reading "Ask a Health Coach: Intuitive Eating vs. Primal Eating"
