Shopping Guide

The food you bring into your home is the food you will eat. Pretty simple, right? If you’re going to transform your body and health, you need the right food. Whether you shop at a grocery store or on the internet, stick to the foods that will aid in your transformation and won’t hold you back.

Pro Tips

• Read labels. Stay away from food with more than 10 ingredients and are full of sugar, artificial sweeteners, and seed oils.

• The bulk of your food should come from the outer edges of the grocery store, where the meats, eggs, vegetables, and fruits are.

• Get food that you know you will eat.

• Don’t shop while you’re hungry.
