A good rule of thumb here is, if you don’t know what it is, we probably shouldn’t be eating it.” ”The end goal here is to know what each and every ingredient is, for you to be able to pronounce it, and that list shouldn’t be very long.” ”The gold standard is to look for pasture-raised eggs with grade AA rating with the organic label.” ”When you’re looking at beef, you want organic, grass fed beef.” ”For chicken, we’re going to look for pasture-raised organic chicken.” ”For seafood, wild caught is best.” ”The only ingredient in your proteins should be the protein itself.” How to Connect to Andrea Daigle Free call: https://bit.ly/3X5ZVvT   Dana Kay Resources: Website: https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ADHDThriveInstitute/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adhdthriveinstitute/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ADHDThriveInstitute  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/adhd-thrive-institute/mycompany/  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.ph/adhdthriveinstitute/  Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@adhd_thriveinstitute  International Best Selling Book, Thriving with ADHD – https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/book/  Free Reduce ADHD Symptoms Naturally Masterclass - https://bit.ly/3GAbFQl  ADHD Parenting Course – https://info.adhdthriveinstitute.com/parentingadhd ADHD Thrive Method 4 Kids Program – https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/packages/
