Read along with the original article(s) here: https://roglawfitness.com/macronutrient-madness-whats-in-your-bucket/ Quotes to ponder: "Think of your daily intake as a series of buckets that you fill up with protein, carbohydrates, and fats."

    Could I Survive on a Limited Diet for Years or Decades? on Simplicity vs. Variety in Nutrition

    Discover all of the podcasts in our network, search for specific episodes, get the Optimal Living Daily workbook, and learn more at: OLDPodcast.com. Episode 3156: Dr. Neal Malik explains that consistently eating the same healthy foods, like eggs, spinach, mozzarella, chicken, and yam, can make daily nutrition simpler and support weight management by reducing decision fatigue. Still, he emphasizes that long-term health depends on variety, since rotating different foods introduces a broader mix of nutrients and antioxidants that help the body thrive and prevent disease. Quotes to ponder: "Eating the same nutritious foods every day is a goal that I have often set for patients that are hoping to lose or maintain their body weight." "If you want to truly maximize your potential, consider substituting some foods you commonly eat with those that you don’t eat as often." "There are some powerful antioxidants in various foods, that when combined, may make for a pretty powerful combination of potential disease-fighting compounds."
