Just as I was about to search for dinner inspiration, an ad popped up on my Instagram feed - like a million others before - promoting a protein powder with artificial sweeteners as a “complete meal”.
It made me think once again about how obsessed we’ve become with high-protein, low-carb, keto, carnivore and other extreme approaches to dieting.
And somehow, we keep missing the basics.
Slow eating. Real, unprocessed food. Being present while eating.
None of it is new and none of it is trendy - but it probably makes the biggest difference.
Are we overcomplicating something where the answer has been right in front of us all along?
