Clean Eating Grocery List






I love Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet! Her books and recipes are amazing! She breaks down eating to the basics! Eat food consumed in its most natural state, or close to it- REAL FOOD! (Which means nothing processed)

Fruits and veggies.
Nuts, legumes, natural nut butters, nut oils. (no additives)
Whole grains like oatmeal, quinoa, brown rice.
Lean proteins. (chicken, ground turkey, fish, lean beef) Meats should be grass fed, free range! Free of chemicals and hormones.

General rule of thumb for clean eating: If your great, great grandparents didn't eat it, you shouldn't either!

When getting ready for a event Tosca Reno has a stipped meal plan that is very effective in dropping body fat and leaning out.

I have found it most effective in planning my carbohydrates around my activity for the day! Think of food as fuel! I limit my fruit intake to before noon due to the simple sugars in it and at most 20grams of sugar a day! I will have fruit post workout or bb results and recovery formula. The results and recovery is high in carbs because you need simple carbs to start the recovery/myscle growth process. Following a hard workout, your body is severely depleted of glycogen and glucose.It is critical to get the carbs (and protein) to the muscle cells as fast as possible. As well, the elevated insulin levels will help to drive nutrients into the muscle cells. And again, high-glycemic carbs are best for this purpose.

I do not eat any simple or complex carbs after 4p. My body does not need it and it will just be stored as fat. I typically eat 100grams of carbohydrates a day and aim for my protein intake to be 125-150 grams a day. div style="float: right; margin: 4px;">Pin It
