How To Do The Bare Minimum With Nutritio...

Dr. Adrian Chavez
About this episode

Sometimes nutrition isn't going to be a top priority in your life. Maybe you just had a child, you are moving, you're traveling, you lost your job, etc. and you just need to place your focus elsewhere and put as little energy as possible into your nutrition.

These times are going to happen and it can be helpful to have a strategy for what we are going to do when they do. So today on the podcast, I am going to discuss how to focus on the bare minimum with nutrition and still make progress and get results (or not slide backwards at least). 
 
If you struggle with staying consistent with quality nutrition choices when life gets hectic, this episode is a must-listen.
