Show Notes

Changing your eating habits is one of the best things you can do for your health, but it doesn’t have to be complicated or boring.

If you’ve been following along with Small Steps for Better Health, you’re cooking more meals at home, which is already improving your health and nutrition!

Let’s take the next step by focusing more on what we are putting on our plates. We still aren’t worried about removing anything from our diets yet, because often we find that as we begin to fill up on nutrient-dense, fiber-filled foods, we naturally eat less of the foods that aren’t as good for us.

This week, try splitting your plate in half and filling at least half your plate with “plant-based” foods.

In this week's episode of Small Steps for Better Health, family medicine physician Dr. Richmond McCarty gives us tons of tips for how to make eating a more plant-based diet sustainable and delicious.
