First North Jersey Nutritarian’s Meet Up at The Lifestyle Coaching Center

If you want to learn a new lifestyle, just hang out with people who eat, think and live the way you want and you will learn some really cool things and develop new habits by osmosis. That’s one reason we started The Lifestyle Coaching Center / online because we want people to see how it’s really done! We just held the first North Jersey Nutritarian Meet up at our center and had a pot luck nutrient rich meal with 3 new friends. Here it is in pictures and in video, like you were there yourself!

Next we’ll be uploading pictures of Tracy who lost 701bs this past year, upgrading her diet to nutrient rich!

Nutrient Density definitions

Nutritional science in the last twenty years has demonstrated that colorful plant foods contain a huge assortment of protective compounds, mostly of which still remain unnamed. Only by eating an assortment of nutrient-rich natural whole foods can we access these protective compounds and prevent the common diseases that afflict Americans. Our modern, low-nutrient eating style has led to an overweight population, the majority of whom develop diseases of nutritional ignorance, causing our medical costs to spiral out of control – Joel Fuhrman M.D.

Nutrient Density is the Key to Good Healthy Eating Plan

A rag mag about health found it’s way into my gym (strangely) and it just blew me a way. It made sense! Mind boggled by a sense of clarity about healthy eating, like I had never experienced before, I took a trip to an event. It was then and there that I was introduced to a whole new world of health information and one of the guys leading the charge was Dr. Fuhrman. Needless to say, I did not feel healthy, living and eating the way I was, so I opened my mind and the rest was history.

Top 10 Most Nutrient Rich Foods

When most people think of “healthy” foods, they think of vegetables. They are right. Yet in the same thought process most people will squirm with speculation as to whether or not they can eat these nutrient rich foods in a way that they enjoy.

DrFuhrman’s Health Getaway 2010 Pictures

There are “health retreats,” and then there’s Dr. Fuhrman’s Health Getaway! (where I just spent that last 7 days in gastronomic bliss :) Where most health getaways promote eating plans that are hard to follow, lack a scientific foundation, and in the end don’t even make sense (try eating like that when you get home!), Dr. Fuhrman’s Health Getaway was the exact opposite.

The menus were grounded in the latest research in eating for health, giving us all “hang-your-hat-on-it ” confidence that the science behind what we were eating was as correct and as it was delicious.

That was my experience this past week. It was good to spend time having fun, and not worrying about the consequences of what I just ate.

Dr. Fuhrman and the NHA Launch Nutritional Research Project

When it comes to “healthy eating,” there’s no shortage of information about what that means. But there is a shortage of *research*. Too often, health claims about various foods are woefully unsupported by reliable research. That’s why I’m so excited about this blog post announcing the launch of Dr. Fuhrman’s Nutritional Research Project, which will study how different diets can help you prevent, or even reverse, disease.
