{flike} Many people associate eating healthy with an extra monetary expense that they have trouble justifying. The idea of eating healthy conjures images of ten dollar juices, fifteen dollar smoothies, and supplements that would break all but the largest of budgets. It is true that you can spend a lot of money on exotic foods or supplements, but eating healthy doesn’t necessarily come at an added expense. Eating healthy on a budget is easier than many people assume, and you often find you can spend less money than you would otherwise.
When we talk about eating healthy on a budget, we are talking about the Kaufmann Diet. Kaufmann 1 of the Kaufmann Diet is fairly simple; it consists of meats, vegetables, limited fruits, nuts, seeds and a few dairy products (butter, plain yogurt). This makes shopping lists fairly easy to plan.
Food expenses can get high, and for most of us, we have to stretch our food dollars as far as they can go. There are few strategies that may help you save some money while still taking full advantage of the Kaufmann Diet. Buy in bulk and use your freezer. Skip out on the supplements initially.
Let your food be medicine. Don’t stress over buying “organic” everything. Avoid even Kaufmann 1-Approved processed foods. |
