Why do we limit certain nuts & seeds on Whole30?
cassnate18 posted a topic in Food, Drink and Condiments
When I was reading the grocery list in the Whole30, I was puzzled by the list of nuts & seeds to have "occasionally" or to "limit." In my pre-whole30 mind, I thought walnuts were super healthy (as well as almonds/almond butter.) I would love to know the science, the "Why" behind the grouping of this list (see image). Why are some nuts & seeds better than others? And, why do certain nuts & seeds need to be limited? I'm curious... and... to be honest, I just love walnuts! haha Thanks for taking the time to read this! -
I'm getting ready to start the Whole 30 diet. I have been doing Intermittent Fasting so am trying to compromise and have a small "late breakfast" (I feel better not eating first thing in the morning and am never hungry). Some days I'll eat many of the sample breakfasts I've seen people share like hard boiled eggs, avocado, etc - but once in a while I thought I would just have a small amount of nuts and dried fruit. I would count the dried fruit as one of the 2 servings of fruit I can have each day and measure them out along with a serving of nuts. My question is - how much would a serving of dried fruit (like raisins, crainins, dates, etc) and also how much would a serving of nuts be - if it would be a late breakfast on the go or just for the occasional late breakfast? Definitely wouldn't be an every day thing, just to add variety to my day as I start this journey. Thank you!

I’ve just listened (in Audible) through chapter 15 of the “It Starts with Food” book. There have been references to PDF resources that can be found at Audible.com or iTunes.com, such as the recommended nut list. I haven’t been able to locate this list, can someone help me? TY

I'm on day 15 here and looking for some suggestions for fats to add to meals besides avocados, olives, and nuts... I need to go shopping and get more avocados, but I'd also love to shake it up a bit with something else! I also use coconut milk when it is fitting (in soups etc.) but could probably expand my use... Any ideas? My typical meals involve a bunch of greens and a chunk of meat or a salad with meat and nuts or avocados... If avocado is on the side I top it with some Cholula hot sauce to make it more exciting... I'm just wondering what other things you guys have been doing?! Thanks
