262: Gentle Nutrition Series: Nutrition Hierarchy
As we continue to explore gentle nutrition in this series, I’d love to talk to you today about nutrition hierarchy.
Today we will explore the concept of nutrition hierarchy, so what matters most and least when it comes to nutrition. Because I know you, and that you tend to be fixated and worried about “doing it right” when it comes to nutrition.
My goal is that this episode helps you see clearly the importance of adequacy, balance and variety, and that while individual foods can also be important, they are not at the top of the nutrition hierarchy pyramid.
In this episode I reference the Gentle Nutrition book by Rachael Hartley, and this article by Ellyn Satter.
