In this episode, we explore the power of Dr. Michael Greger's Daily Dozen and how it can help you eat for optimal health. The Daily Dozen is a powerful tool to help you eat for optimal health. Focusing on nutrient-dense whole plant-based foods gives you the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients your body needs to function at its best. With the app Dr. Greger created, it's easier than ever to track your progress and incorporate the Daily Dozen into your diet. By eating more of the good stuff, you can shift your mindset towards a more positive, empowering approach to food and improve your health and well-being.

Here are the key takeaways:

• The Daily Dozen is a list of 10 food groups, hydration, and exercise that Dr. Greger recommends we eat daily for optimal health. Focusing on these nutrient-dense foods gives us the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients our body needs to function at its best.
• The Daily Dozen takes the guesswork out of meal planning, making it easier to follow a plant-based diet. You can track your daily progress using the app Dr. Greger created, see how many servings of each food group you've eaten and what you still need to include.
• The Daily Dozen is not about restriction or deprivation; it's about eating more of the good stuff. This approach can make it feel less daunting to change your diet and help you shift your mindset towards a more positive, empowering approach to food.
