Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get enough protein on a vegan diet?
Plant-based proteins include legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas), tofu, tempeh, edamame, quinoa, seitan, nuts, and seeds. Combining different plant proteins throughout the day ensures you get all essential amino acids.
What can I eat on a keto diet?
Keto focuses on high-fat, moderate-protein, very low-carb foods: meats, fatty fish, eggs, cheese, nuts, seeds, healthy oils, avocados, and low-carb vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, and cauliflower. Avoid grains, sugar, and most fruits.
Is gluten-free healthier for everyone?
Gluten-free is essential for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. For others, there's no proven health benefit. Whole grains with gluten (wheat, barley, rye) provide fiber and nutrients. Consult a doctor before eliminating gluten.
What's the difference between paleo and Whole30?
Both eliminate grains, legumes, dairy, and processed foods. Whole30 is a strict 30-day elimination program that also excludes any form of sugar (including maple syrup and honey) and requires no weighing or measuring. Paleo is a more flexible lifestyle approach.
