Nutrition Tip - Food Displacement
Today’s tip is really common sense. But as we all know, common sense isn’t necessarily all that common. The trick of this tip is be careful that if you use “cheat meals” that you don’t let them take the place of what you should really be eating. Here’s the tip from John Berardi:
Don’t Displace, Dummy!
by Dr. John Berardi
There’s a big difference between a healthy diet to which treats are occasionally added and an ‘all-treat diet.’ In the former, unhealthy foods are consumed rarely and in addition to healthy foods. In the latter, unhealthy foods are consumed often and instead of healthy foods. This is called ‘food displacement’ and must be avoided if optimal body composition and health are your goals. Don’t displace nutrient dense food with empty calories!
