Are you eating enough?

It’s common to see lots of folks under-eating for their bodies needs. Let’s take a look at a few signs that you may not be eating enough:

▪️Constant Fatigue:

Even after a full night's sleep, you find yourself dragging through the day. The reason? Your body derives energy from calories. A deficiency means less fuel for daily tasks.

▪️Brain Fog:

Feel like you're wading through mental mud? Our brains need glucose to function optimally. Without sufficient caloric intake, cognitive functions like memory and concentration can suffer.

▪️Always Cold:

Your body burns calories to produce heat. Insufficient calorie intake can reduce your body's ability to regulate its temperature, leaving you feeling cold more often.

▪️Mood Swings:

Hello Hangry! Serotonin, a neurotransmitter responsible for regulating mood, requires certain nutrients from food to be produced. Lack of proper nutrition can lead to mood imbalances.

▪️Hair & Nail Problems:

Both hair and nails are made of protein. Without enough calories, and especially protein intake, they can become brittle or even lead to hair loss.

Every function in our body, from cellular regeneration to hormonal balance, relies on the energy derived from the food we eat. When we consistently consume fewer calories than we need, it's not just our waistlines that suffer, but our overall health. If you're experiencing any of these symptoms it might be time to revisit your daily intake + work towards fueling your body so you can feel like an amazing human vs a cranky zombie.
