Health Reset: Balancing Your Nutrition

The first thing you probably consider when you think about resetting your health is your 
nutrition. The way you eat, how much, and the ingredients you use are all essential to 
living a long, healthy, balanced life. 

Here are some easy ways to get started on balancing out and resetting your nutrition.


Drink Your Water! 

Of course, the first tip is going to be drinking water! Everyone needs water, and chances 
are you haven’t been drinking enough. Dehydration can often be very subtle, where you 
barely notice it. There are a few techniques that help you drink more water without 
thinking too much about it. 

Start your day off with a glass of water. This is simple and a good way to start your 
morning routine. Brush your teeth, then drink your water.

Have water with every meal. Skip the juice or soda, and just have water instead. Save 
your other drinks for after your meal is over. 

Bring water with you. Get a reusable water bottle and keep it in your car, your office, or 
anywhere else you plan to be.


Find Nutritious Foods You Love

You will absolutely not stick to a nutritious meal plan if you don’t enjoy what you’re 
eating. Take some time to find healthy foods that you actually like to eat. 

Think about your favorite foods and write them down. Look through your list of favorites 
and highlight the foods that contain a lot of nutrients. This might be fruits, vegetables, 
lean proteins, dairy, nuts and seeds, and whole grains.

This will become your list of healthy ingredients to create meals with as you move 
forward with your health reset.


Go Seasonal With Your Food

To switch things up every couple months, look into using more ingredients that are in 
season. For example, in the fall, you can use more pumpkin, butternut squash, and 
apples in your meals, then switch to pineapple, peaches, and seafood in the 
summertime.

Using seasonal ingredients not only means your food will taste better, but it is also more 
affordable. Plus, it helps you to create more variety in your meal plans.


Consider Farmer’s Markets or CSAs

When it comes to your nutrition, it helps to do something a little different during a reset. 
If you typically get your produce or other foods from the supermarket, consider 
something like a CSA for local produce or check out your local farmer’s market. This is 
a way to support your local community and have high-quality organic produce without 
spending too much.
