LeeAnnM Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Hi! Im going to try whole 30 for the first time. I have to say, it seems a bit overwhelming as far as all the foods you can and can't have. Is there just a clear list of what we CAN have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted March 11, 2015 Moderators Share Posted March 11, 2015 The rules are here, they're pretty clear. On the Downloads page, you can find a shopping list and a pantry stocking guide and some other information you might find helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 After you digest that information (most importantly the rules and shopping list), you may also find the Can I Have Guide helpful. It's like an FAQs for the Whole30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evaq Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 It can feel like a lot of information but try not to let it overwhelm you. You'll get the most benefit from whole 30 if you read all the resources, understand the program and fully commit to it. As for reading labels, ingredients etc. and shopping that's one of the great benefits of whole 30 (in my opinion). Yes, it might be time consuming in the beginning, but it's important to audit and acknowledge everything that we put into our bodies. Your health and your food should be your choice. When you buy something without reading the ingredient label, you're blindly trusting someone else (usually a corporation) to make the "best" health/quality/taste choices on your behalf. Just because something says "natural" "whole" "low fat" doesn't mean it's good for you. Whole 30 forces you to make sure that you eat things that: Promote a healthy psychological response. Promote a healthy hormonal response. Support a healthy gut. Support immune function and minimize inflammation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
