Four Reasons to Rotate Your Foods

If you're like me, you're probably eating the same old chicken breast or drinking the same protein shake every day out of habit, and you're probably even getting bored of it, which is the #1 reason we fall off track with our healthy eating plan. If your supplements, grocery lists, and meal prep look the same every week, it's time to shake things up.

Lack of variety causes diet burnout and is one reason our metabolism slows down. Changing things up adds a little spark to your healthy eating routine and habits, boosts metabolic rate and fat burning, and prevents diet burnout.

Don't be afraid to experiment and try new things. By slipping a few new clean keto metabolic boosting foods into your daily health habits, you can increase the variety in your diet and provide your body with the additional nutrients it requires when you're losing weight and melting off belly fat. This simple tweak makes your routine more exciting and offers impressive nutritional benefits.

Here are four reasons to rotate your foods.

1. You’ll boost your nutrient intake to boost your metabolism.
   
   Switch out or add new/different protein sources by combining Plant-Based Proteins such as Metabolic Boosting Protein Bars, Vegan Complete Protein, and/or Natural Whey daily. You'll get more amino acids/proteins and other nutrition combining varied proteins that you’ll miss out on if you don't offer your body an assortment of different metabolic boosting and fat-burning proteins and if you eat the same foods every day.
   
   For example, Natural Whey Protein is a good source of amino acids/protein. If you don’t occasionally drink or eat Vegan Complete Protein or plant-based Metabolic Boosting Protein Bars, rich in amino acids/protein, you may be skimping on other vitamins and minerals such as magnesium.
   
   The same rule applies to the type of amino acids, each delivering unique nutritional benefits for optimal metabolic health that triggers weight loss and fat burning.
   
   For example, Natural Lactose-Free Whey provides dairy-based nutrients despite all the lactose being filtered out. However, the nutrients remain, such as calcium. The Vegan Complete Protein and Metabolic Boosting Plant-Based Protein Bars provide lots of plant-based phytonutrients like chlorophyll from organic Açaí berry, Acerola, Amla Jaboticaba, cranberry Goji, mangosteen, Maqui Berry, pomegranate, and Schisandra, all of which provide the same nutrients from red, orange, yellow, and blue/purple-based plant foods -- without excess calories, sugars or digestive issues.
   
   When you're trying to lose weight and melt off stubborn belly fat, it's best to prioritize proteins from these sources (Natural Whey, Plant-Based Metabolic Boosting Protein Bars, and Vegan Complete Protein Powder) for best results.
   
   These perfect proteins provide maximum strength for controlling hunger and cravings and help naturally reduce blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, and cortisol levels without gastric distress or unpleasant side effects.
   
   NUTRITION NOTE: If you have diabetes and use these or other medications, your nutritional needs are even more increased. You require the above nutritional products to ensure that your body gets the specific nutrients it needs in the proper ratios. 
   
   
2. You’ll reduce your risk of metabolic syndrome/insulin resistance.
   
   In one study(1), researchers compared two groups of men and women, ages 40 to 69. The first group incorporated a variety of protein foods into their diet, such as combining clean proteins such as LynFit Natural Whey Protein, Plant-Based Metabolic Boosting Protein Bars, and Vegan Complete Protein, as well as eating more fish, seafood, leafy green vegetables, seaweed, low-GI fruits, and omega-3 fats, etc.).
   
   The second ate a limited diet with very little variety or went off their clean eating plan, seeking variety. The study found that those with more of the right variety (clean, healthy sources ) in their diet were at lower risk of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance. This syndrome, involving abdominal obesity, low HDL (the good kind) cholesterol, and high fasting glucose levels, increases your risk of weight gain, and obesity escalates your risks of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and almost all diseases we battle with today.
   
   
3. You’ll start losing inches and belly fat.
   
   Combining LynFit Nutrition®️ Boosting Natural Whey, Plant-Based Protein Bars and/or Vegan Complete Protein Powder improves metabolic function, reduces blood sugar levels (including A1C levels), and rebalances cortisol levels, triggering weight loss and fat burning so you can say goodbye to those stubborn inches around your waistline.
   
   Rotating or combining your metabolic boosting proteins and foods and eating a varied diet of leafy green vegetables (clean keto diet) also helps increase the diversity of good bacteria in your gut, improving your microbiome and strengthening immune health. Greater diversity in gut bacteria is associated not only with better overall health but also with weight loss.
   
   NUTRITION NOTE: That's why LynFit Nutrition®️ includes prebiotic fiber in almost every product we make, to maximize hunger control and accelerate weight loss and fat burning.
   
   One study(2) showed that people who follow a vegetarian/vegan diet have better biodiversity in their gut bacteria than those who consume animal products. The benefits of having a diverse gut microbiome are monumental. Studies show an increase in anti-inflammatory, anti-pathogenic, and anti-microbial effects, which have a direct cardiovascular benefit, to name a few. Other positive impacts of varying bacteria include balanced blood sugar, improved metabolism, mood, immunity, and enhanced functions in digestion, gut, hair, skin, and nail health.
   
   
4. You may live longer, get sick less often, and boost hair and nail growth.
   
   Eating clean keto, which is very nutritious and varied, may lower your mortality risk, boost hair and nail growth, and improve skin tone and overall health.
   
   One study(3) of 59,000 women found that those who rotated 16-17 clean and healthy foods through their diet had a 42% lower mortality from all causes than those who only consumed zero to eight different healthy foods.
   
   The researchers concluded that nutritious variety in proper ratios was as important, if not more so, than limiting unhealthy, blood sugar-spiking foods. Instead of only focusing on limiting inflammatory foods, increase the variety of nutrients in your diet with plenty of leafy green vegetables, low-GI fruits, healthy fats, and lean protein sources from the Quick Keto Metabolic Reset weight loss plan.
   
   LynFit Nutrition®️ proteins and supplements make this easy, more affordable, and convenient so you can focus on living your life.
   
   One of the best ways to alter and improve your gut bacteria is to eat at least two servings daily of either Natural Whey, Vegan Complete Protein, or Plant-Based Metabolic Boosting Protein Bars, eat a wider variety of leafy green vegetables, and include one serving daily of low-GI fruits in varying colors in the diet.
   
   In a 2016 study(4), researchers analyzed stool samples from 1,300 twins in the United Kingdom. They found a strong link between bacterial diversity and markers for obesity and heart disease. The link between more dietary diversity from clean sources and less abdominal fat was also strong. The researchers also found that the twins’ parents passed on microbes that can increase the risk for belly fat linked to metabolic syndrome and/or insulin resistance.
   
   NUTRITION NOTE: Your genes are the gun, but your lifestyle pulls the trigger! EAT CLEAN TO BE LEAN and HEALTHY!

Try adding a new source of metabolic-boosting protein daily, choosing from Plant-Based Bars, Vegan Complete Protein, Natural Whey Proteins, Essential Amino Acids, or Collagen.
