Page 9 - Whole Food Lifestyle

While we may cook and combine these ingredients to make a multi ingredient dish, the foods

themselves maintain their whole integrity because they are not altered.

Example: A grilled chicken breast eaten with baked sweet potato wedges on the side is a whole
food meal, but, a fried chicken breast with a side of French fries is a processed meal.

Another Example: A baked potato is a whole food, potato chips is a processed food.

What Is Clean Eating

Clean eating is a term that refers to maintaining a diet that is exclusively comprised of whole
foods.

When you eat clean your diet is filled with foods eaten in their natural state without added: fats,
sugars, high fructose corn syrup, preservatives, artificial flavors, colors, textures or any other
chemicals.

Eating clean also means avoiding “fake foods” or those chemically created foods that have no
real food in them, Twinkies are one good example, as are Pop Tarts.
