Fruit First, Energy Burst

6/30/2020

​A few years ago I read a book called "Skinny Bitch." which sounds terrible, but really, it's like being bitch slapped by your best, healthy friend. The authors are ruthless, but they tell the truth.

Anyway, one great truth I pulled out of the book is FRUIT FIRST. The skinny bitches recommend 3 full servings of fruit in the morning, spaced out over the first few intervals of hunger, which usually is good enough to get you to about 10:00 AM.

Then you can add in something more substantial.

The reason is: fruit ferments fastest. It moves through your digestive system quickly, and gets everything from yesterday going too. If we eat fruit AFTER carbs and proteins, it gets stuck behind that food, fermenting away, and getting you gassy.

Fruit First for the best energy throughout the day.

This is still my basic practice. If I have to teach early, I'll eat a handful of nuts as well, but otherwise, I eat fruit all morning.

One small thing, might change the game.

How do you set yourself up for a great day?
