Even the word weight is heavy. It weighs heavy on our minds. It weighs heavy on belt buckles. It’s just a heavy word. But don’t worry Canada Food Intolerance can definitely help you. Read a couple of your tips and hints below as to how you can get this mental monkey off your shoulders.

Canada Food Intolerance can help your mental and physical symptoms

People spend hours weighing up their options. “How can I lose weight?” “How to lose weight FAST?” “Best ways to lose weight?”

We try to shed weight.

But, what steps should you take to lose that which has been weighing you down?

1) And this is the most important……………. Shed the weight of your mind.

To achieve this you must find clarity. What is it you are trying to achieve? What are your goals? “I want to lose as much weight as possible” won’t cut it. Be precise, be achievable, be realistic.

Start by looking at where you are right now.

How much weight are you currently carrying? And I’m not talking about around your waist. Stress has a massive part to play in shedding weight. Stress, tired, fatigue, anxiety are all words that anchor you to that sofa.

So practice the motto “get my mind right” and everything else will be much easier.

2) What is my motivation?

Once you have decided you are ready, write down your motivations. Keep them on your phone, because trust me, you will at some point need to be reminded of them.

“I am losing weight for my family.” “I am losing weight for my wedding.” “I am losing weight for my holiday”

Are all common reasons to lose weight.

Get them in big letters on your phone, use them to keep you in the correct lane.

It isn’t only meals that take prep when trying to lose weight. Mind prep will be your best friend and worst enemy on this journey.

Remember Mind, Body and Soul… In that order. Order your intolerance test from Canada Food Intolerance here.

Does Clean Eating = Clean Thinking?

Intolerance testing from Canada

A burning question for us all, why do you need to test your intolerance to certain foods? All the answers below. Clean eating = clean living. You get the point. Read on below:

Why is it important to test your intolerance?

Stressors to your mental health have never been more prominent. Changes in environment and society have seen a sharp rise in reported cases of ailments such as anxiety, depression, stress, chemical imbalance and worry. However it is labelled, it is safe to say it is becoming an epidemic.

In many cases the symptoms are uncontrollable. How people react to certain stressors will never be able to be explained away in a blog like this.

But, in my experiences, the effects can be lessened to an extent. Think of it as a car running at 100mph, sometimes you are Lewis Hamilton fully in control, and then sometimes you are a 4-year-old toddler yanking at the wheel!

The effects a clean diet can have.

Ever heard the phrase “a tidy desk is a tidy mind” Well I follow the same concept but the desk is my mind, my personal workspace. Positive eating is a positive mind. Your gut is directly linked to the brain. Look it up… brain freezes anyone? It’s also known as brain fog by the way…

Your plate of food has a direct correlation on your mood. If you eat something that is bad for YOU chances are the symptoms are going to include, fatigue which in turn means agitation, which in turn means lack of concentration, which in turn means lack of production. The snowball is now giving Lewis Hamilton a run for his money.

Control what you can control. Lessen the impact your diet has on you and your mental outlook, it is basic psychology. In the words of the great Deion Sanders “If you look good, you feel good, If you feel good, you play good, If you play good, they pay well.”

Remember, mind body and soul……………………In that Order. But before that, make sure you test your intolerance.
