A few months ago I came across an awesome book called The Truth About Fat Burning Foods by Nick Pineault. Nick, known as the Nutrition Nerd, has a real passion for the science behind healthy foods. I downloaded the book and quite honestly, couldn't put it down. It was chock full of information, but laid out in such a way that wasn't overwhelming.
I have referenced Nick's book a number of times over the past few months and recently invited him to kick off my latest HKI interview series.
Nick and his wife Gen, live in Montreal, Quebec so we joined for a Skype session to talk about his book and some tips on healthy eating. In this interview, we cover:
- The best (and worst) grocery store items to buy. Can't get enough of this stuff. I always find this helpful.
- Nick's tip for pulling off healthy meals.
- Why dark breads can be worse than even white breads and which bread (we) like the best.
- How picky eaters can re-train their taste buds.
- Best drinks for kids. He gives a new idea that I can't wait to try.
Click play above to listen to our interview and if you like what you hear, make sure to check out Nick's book where you'll get even more in-depth information. My favorite is his C-O-M-P-L-E-T-E grocery store list of what to buy, what to avoid...and why. You'll also learn about the 90/10 rule, the truth about drinks (including fruit juice), and oh-so-much more. I can't think of a better way to jump start your healthy eating efforts. Couple his information with the HKI online meal planner, and healthy eating struggles become a thing of the past. So cool!! Enjoy!
