THE MOTIVATION: HEALTHFULSCOPES
It all began as a hobby and a passion. During my spare time, I read nutritional research to stay up to date. At first, I was looking for a part-time nutritionist position, but the application process and job descriptions are tedious, monotonous, and generic. Aside from that, I wouldn't have the freedom to explore topics that really interest me.
I don't like lumping people into one category, especially when it comes to health and nutrition. There are several aspects of nutrition that are universal and applicable to everyone, so let's not get things twisted. Eating more colorful foods, for instance, can help ensure adequate macronutrient and micronutrient intake. People are created with unique characteristics and DNA that defines them. There is a disadvantage to applying one size fits all to everyone. My method of maintaining my weight may not be suitable for others. Similarly, following a vegan diet makes it impossible for me to sleep. Rather than eating mostly meat, I prefer vegetables and small portions of wild caught fish. A nutrition plan should be tailored to your genetics, and lifestyle. It is therefore essential to listen and learn what irritates and soothes your body. It is also wise to collaborate with a holistic-integrative healthcare professional capable of aligning and educating you on the appropriate foods to achieve your optimal health.
