For most of my life, calories were king. All I considered was how many calories were in the food or drink I was consuming. The world of Functional Medicine has changed my thinking. Now I understand that food is information and that every morsel or liquid I ingest tells my body something good or bad! I never ever think about food in terms of calories. I know that a nutrient dense, diverse array of whole foods made from nature are what matters. As I prepare my meals I no longer think about calories. I think about the quality and color of the food I am preparing. I try to eating the rainbow at every meal. I look on my plate and see colors; not calories. This is actually fun! Try it! Think about eating the rainbow!
