Mark's top 10 tips for a successful Whole 30.

Next month, Primal Kitchen will be teaming up with the Whole30 crew to help support people

during the Whole 30 program.

The guidelines complement the Primal Blueprint after all, and the primal blueprint is a common

after-hole 30 approach to long-term health for many folks. The Whole 30 itself offers incredibly

valuable feedback on the effects of certain foods on your health. And it's an amazing kickstart for

turning your diet and well-being around.

Today, I thought I'd offer up my top tips for a successful Whole 30 experience.

Number one, eat enough food.

A Whole 30 typically results in inadvertent calorie reduction for multiple reasons.

You're eating more nutrient-dense foods so your body doesn't feel

the need to cram in empty calories in a vain attempt to obtain the necessary vitamins and minerals.

You're probably also eating more fat and protein than before, which are far more satiating

than empty refined carbohydrates. You have steady even energy throughout the day from

better fat burning, and no longer need those glucose infusions called snacks to stay awake.

There is, however, such a thing as too little food. Micronutrients are great and all, but we must

also eat for sheer energetic purposes.

Calories matter. Don't shortchange yourself here.
