When we go seeking nutrition information we find there are over 100 dietary theories.
I support the school of Integrative Nutrition which focuses on many areas of human NOURISHMENT and uses the term PRIMARY FOODS. Primary food is more than what is on your plate.
When primary food is balanced and satiating, your life feeds you, making what you eat secondary.
The book I wrote with Dr Deborah Kern is in fact a workbook on PRIMARY FOODS. The categories of PRIMARY FOODS include
1. Relationships – how are you nourished by your relationships
2. Physical Activity – nourish your daily life by committing to daily physical activity
3. Career – Find work you LOVE or learn to love the work you do
4. Spirituality – find a spiritual practice that enhances meaning in your life
