Nutrition Principles to Learn (and Unlea...

JORDAN LEE DOOLEY
About this episode

Did you know that our soil's nutrition has been continuously worsening? And poor soil = nutritionally poor food.

So where you source your food can have a huge impact on its nutrition and your health.

Finding food that's not just local, but is grown with the right practices and is in season can make a huge difference in our ability to get the nutrients we need.

But what does this look like?  

How can we create rhythms that help prioritize nutritionally dense foods and support our metabolism?

And what nutrition principles have we grown up with that we need to unlearn?

In this episode, Jordan talks with women's health educator and the founder of Simpl Holistic Health, Ashlee Rowland, about how to source nutritionally dense foods, get enough minerals, and support our metabolism.

Tune in to learn:

  • How nutrient-deficient soil leads to nutrient-deficient food
  • Why eating local food is important and tips for finding local food
  • How to eat food seasonally in a way that's not overwhelming
  • Easy ways to get more minerals in your diet
  • Rhythms to do each week when it comes to preparing and making food
  • Nutrition principles that we need to unlearn
  • Why skipping meals and fasting is hurting our hormones
