Lacy ~ Holistic Health
Are you living your best life? ⁣ Longevity is w Are you living your best life? 
⁣
Longevity is what we are striving for, right? Yes, HOWEVER, it’s not the only thing we hope for. Health span is what we should be working toward. A healthy #longevity is the perfect combination.
⁣
Here are some of my favorite tips for #healthyAging:
⁣
 1. Positivity - when you keep a positive mindset, you’re actually decreasing your stress and making way for more happiness. As we age, the more we stay optimistic the more likely we are to have better health, more social connections and greater health span. 
⁣
2. Nutrition - rather than over complicating our diets, focus on practices that prevent disease, while optimizing wellness. First, eat fruits and vegetables. Next, minimize the intake of red meat and refined sugar. This will contribute to cardiovascular health and healthy blood sugar levels. 
⁣
3. Nature - you may have heard about the benefits from Vitamin D. Sunlight also helps regulate sleep patterns. The benefits from nature are invaluable!
⁣
4. Water - if you’ve been reading my content for a while, then you know that I’m lost without water. Water is an essential key nutrient that helps our bodies flush out toxins, and contributes to skin and joint health. A majority of adults do not drink enough water, so how about you go enjoy a glass now!
⁣
5. Exercise - in one way or another get moving! As we age, our bodies start to experience more aches and pains, however if we keep up with movement then those joint pains usually subside. Movement also helps with strength and muscle mass which we need for stability as we age. Find a movement that resonates with you, yoga, walking, running, lifting, or Pilates. Don’t be afraid to step outside the box and try new things - you just might surprise yourself!
⁣
Come back tomorrow, as I’ll list the final 5 tips for healthy aging.

Sometimes I cook things once and forget to make them again and other meals we have weekly - balance, right? 😂
⁣
I really should have a meal tracking journal, I’m sure it would benefit more than just me. In fact maybe that’s what I’ll start doing this year.
⁣
2021 - I don’t have resolutions. Yes, I have goals for my fitness and business, but resolutions? Not so much.
⁣
In addition to meal tracking, I’m going to be more efficient in the kitchen by planning out family meals. Usually I’d find ingredients in my pantry and throw something together, or I’d have my staple meals as I mentioned above.
⁣
How do you meal plan? Do you buy groceries based on the meals you intend to cook? I’d love to hear your meal planning routine! 👇🏼 #livingwithlacy
Eggs, oh, where to begin... They can wreak havoc o Eggs, oh, where to begin...
They can wreak havoc on our arteries, if you want the scientific deets, let me know and we can schedule a call.
⁣
Aside from increased risk of heart attack, stroke and death (as if that weren’t enough) let’s throw in the cancer risk... 
⁣
So in short, to avoid the above mentioned, let’s find some alternatives! 
⁣
If you’re baking; 
- applesauce
- Flaxseed
- Tofu
- Banana
- Yogurt
⁣
Think you’ll miss scrambled eggs? I did too, but tofu can be a great replacement for scrambled eggs as well.
⁣
By leading a whole food, plant based lifestyle you’re increasing your health span. Don’t settle for the instant gratification. In a world like today, let’s enjoy life and gear our mindset toward prevention, rather than settling for treatment. #livingwithLacy
Nutrition and hydration contribute to healthy look Nutrition and hydration contribute to healthy looking skin. Skin health is optimized when you start at the cellular level. From there, glowing skin will follow.
⁣
How are you keeping your skin cells performing at its best? 👇🏼 #livingwithlacy
If you struggle with your weight - either gaining If you struggle with your weight - either gaining unwanted pounds or you’re not reaching your weight loss goals, then it could be that you aren’t getting enough sleep.
⁣
Research has shown that poor sleep habits can result in an increased risk of obesity.
⁣
When your sleep is all over the place, so is your appetite, leading to a higher caloric intake 😳 
⁣
Adults should get at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night (if you’re a parent this probably sounds unreasonable, at least it does to me).
⁣
Sleep provides us with multiple benefits that contribute to optimal health. To increase your sleep hygiene habits consider the following;
👉🏼 reduce stimulant use
👉🏼 reduce screen time 
👉🏼 exercise
👉🏼 avoid foods that trigger discomfort 
⁣

Seek out the people (those that you trust and resp Seek out the people (those that you trust and respect) that are around you and ask for clarity on how they view you. Is their view of you how you want to be seen?
⁣
Start this year embracing who you are.
Be true to yourself. When you aren’t then you’re not in alignment with yourself. #livingwithlacy
Do you consume green tea? ⁣ An odd way to ask su Do you consume green tea?
⁣
An odd way to ask such a question. I did that on purpose. More on that later...
⁣
Green tea, when combined with exercise, has the potential to reduce the effects of fatty liver disease (according to studies by Penn State). 😳
⁣
According to further research, it appears that #greenTea helps boost the immune system 😳
#immunebooster 
If that’s not enough...
⁣
Green tea 👇🏼
⭐️ May reduce the risk of getting oral cancer (@nutrition_facts_org )
⭐️ Has protective properties when applied topically in precancerous cervical lesions
⁣
You may drink your green tea, though there is a more efficient way to reap the benefits of green tea’s antioxidants.
⁣
How?
Through a synergistic blend of green tea + 4 other herbs that reduce oxidative stress (aka #INFLAMMATION) 
⁣
This is the kind of stuff to know about when you are aiming for optimal levels of #longevity!

Have you stepped back to look at your quality of l Have you stepped back to look at your quality of life?
Odd question, I know.
⁣
We count our blessings when we wake up in the morning, when we have the ability to move, when we have a roof over our heads.
⁣
Today I challenge you to reflect upon your past, and future expectations.
Are your expectations hindering you from accomplishing more than you can imagine?
⁣
Meditate.
Sit in peace for a few minutes. 
Journal.
Write out your feelings. 
Document dreams.
This one takes practice, though it can become a habit - I’m still working on. 
⁣
What quality of life are you living? #livingwithlacy
Do you reach for food when your body is actually t Do you reach for food when your body is actually trying to tell you that it’s thirsty?
⁣
Being able to distinguish whether you’re hungry or just thirsty is a skill we should all have, yet very few of us pay close enough attention. 
⁣
We may blame our brain, since the same area that sends signals to let us know we’re hungry happens to be the same area that signals when we’re thirsty. 🤔
⁣
Here are some signs of thirst/dehydration:
- Headaches
- Fatigue 
- Nausea
- Dizziness
Some signs of hunger include;
- Rumbling stomach
- Dizziness 
- Fatigue
- Change in mood
Hormones in the gut signal to the brain when we’re hungry. With the types of food eaten in the modern diet (ie. sugar, salt, fat) these signals can become confusing.
⁣
A tip while tuning into your body - ⭐️ the next time you think you may be hungry, but it’s not quite mealtime, drink a glass of water then wait 10-15 minutes.
⁣
Do you keep track of your water intake?
If so, what’s your go-to method? Share in the comments!

As 2020 ends (finally 😆), people prepare for th As 2020 ends (finally 😆), people prepare for the new year to come. Oftentimes, we start by setting resolutions. 
⁣
Do you remember last year’s resolutions?
Did you achieve the goals you set out to accomplish?
Do you even remember what they were?
⁣
Hopefully you wrote them down, and if not don’t beat yourself up.
⁣
2020 was a year filled with uncertainty and divide. We head into 2021 with continued uncertainty, though one thing is certain - YOU.
⁣
Make 2021 about you. Getting your mind right and your physical health at an optimal level. Because without your mental and physical health, what can you achieve? 🤔
How can you care for your family?

Did you know that foods labeled “organic” can Did you know that foods labeled “organic” can have different meanings? True Story.
⁣
When you see the green and white USDA Organic seal, it means that the product is certified to be 95% or more organic.
⁣
According to the Mayo Clinic, here are the following guidelines for organic labeling: 
⁣
* 100 percent organic - You’ll find this on single ingredient foods such as fruits, veggies, and eggs. These may also have a USDA seal.
* Organic. If a multi-ingredient food is labeled organic, at least 95 percent of the ingredients are certified organic, excluding salt and water. The nonorganic items must be from a USDA list of approved additional ingredients. These also may have a USDA seal. (Mayo Clinic)
* Made with Organic ingredients - A multi-ingredient product has at least 70% certified organic ingredients then the label can read “Made with Organic Ingredients”. You’ll find products like cereals, crackers, etc. with this wording. 
* Organic ingredients - I found this to be interesting, because if you aren’t paying close attention, then the wording for these products is very close to the previous wording of Made with Organic Ingredients. Product labels that include organic ingredients are identified as having less than 70 percent of a multi-ingredient product is certified organic. The ingredient list may indicate which ingredients are organic.
⁣
Ok, so when it comes to conventional vs. organic, do you always need to buy organic? You’ll reap the benefits of the fruit or vegetable whether it’s organic or not. 
⁣
Consuming fruits and veggies over not consuming them at all is a better option.
⁣
I suggest keeping an eye on the Dirty Dozen & Clean 15, because this list DOES change. Also, make sure to soak/wash your produce.
⁣

Do your kids cook in the kitchen with you? ⁣ The Do your kids cook in the kitchen with you?
⁣
There are so many benefits to allowing children to help you cook or bake, such as learning numbers and measurements. They also have an opportunity to learn where their food comes from.
⁣
I’ll admit I wasn’t a fan of having help in the kitchen but after having a long talk with myself, I realized how valuable time in the kitchen is.
⁣
It’s the foundation for healthy habits!
It leads to questions and answers that’ll last a lifetime.
So what if I end up needing to sweep the floor later?! 😂
⁣
How do you have your children help in the kitchen? 👇🏼
Are you thriving, or simply surviving? ⁣ I get i Are you thriving, or simply surviving?
⁣
I get it, 2020 has been a year lived in survival mode. However, it’s never too late to reignite your ability to thrive. If you don’t have your health, what do you have? 😳
⁣
All it takes is mindset.
⁣
If you’re lacking energy, take a step back and evaluate your nutrition.
👉🏼 are you eating foods that cause fatigue?
👉🏼 are you eating foods that push your body into overdrive to digest?
⁣
If you’re lagging throughout the day, and thinking this is the norm, you’re being fooled! You can feel great, and it’s likely you have forgotten what it feels like to thrive.
⁣
⭐️ Hydrate
⁣
⭐️ Eat unprocessed whole foods
⁣
⭐️ Cut out sugar
⁣
⭐️ Tune in to your body
⁣
⭐️ Move
⁣
If you are in a funk and that is what keeps you from thriving, make time for you! 👇🏼
⁣
⭐️ meditate
⁣
⭐️ take a bath
⁣
⭐️ enjoy a hobby or interest
⁣
⭐️ go outside
⁣
It’s easy to settle, but think about how you and your loved ones will benefit if you thrive!

Merry Christmas from Casa Catao 🎄 #livingwithla Merry Christmas from Casa Catao 🎄 #livingwithlacy May your holiday be filled with cheer, love and gratitude.
Is a plant-based lifestyle healthy for children?
⁣
Absolutely!
⁣
If you yourself aren’t willing to eat something, then why feed it to your children?
⁣
A plant-based diet contributes to a diverse microbiome among children!
⁣
The Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics recently published a study revealing gut health as responsive to certain food groups.
⁣
The study also revealed that more diseases are attributed to an imbalance of the gut. It’s never too late (or TOO EARLY!) to encourage healthy eating habits that can be maximized over one’s life.

Christmas is just a few days away! Can you believe Christmas is just a few days away! Can you believe it? 2020 has been the longest and shortest year all rolled into one.
⁣
Are you keeping your traditions this year or straying away from them?
Overall, I’ve been trying to keep things minimal. This year we’re simplifying gift giving. We made the holiday season focused on family and spending time with one another. In regards to gifts, we’re giving one for each of the following; 
- Want
- Need
- Wear
- Read
What holiday traditions do you have or are you starting this year? #livingwithLacy
As a nutritionist, I’m often asked how many calo As a nutritionist, I’m often asked how many calories should be consumed in a day... great question, but I don’t have an answer for you. 😳
⁣
Everyone varies due to their activity level, type of food being eaten and many other factors. 🌟
⁣
Instead, I ask you to consider how you feel.
⁣
👉🏼 Are you eating empty calories?
👉🏼 Are you eating nutrient dense food?
👉🏼 Are you indigested throughout the day?
👉🏼 Are you still hungry after a meal?
⁣
These are all questions that you should think about, and later we can consider calories. For now, I want you to pay attention to satiety queues. Not sure what that means? Let’s chat - link is in my bio!

Don’t! Here’s why! ⁣ - Hormones - think abou Don’t! Here’s why!
⁣
- Hormones - think about it, why are cows lactating to begin with? So even if you’re consuming the cleanest milk, it contains hormones. Studies have found these hormones linked to hormone-dependent disease (breast, ovarian & prostate). Children’s exposure to these hormones has sparked concern over whether it leads to early puberty.
- Casein - increases possibility of cancer cell growth
- Children - allergies in the form of constipation, eczema and asthma, all linked to cow’s milk.
