Lesson Overview

20.9 – Choosing Whole Over Processed: Whole foods like fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, and grains usually contain more natural vitamins and minerals because they have not been changed much from their original form. Highly processed foods often lose important nutrients and gain added chemicals to boost flavor or shelf life, which may cause cravings or sluggishness later. When reading labels, fewer ingredients often mean the food is closer to nature and better for long-term health. Choosing whole foods improves digestion, supports steady energy, and helps manage hunger more effectively. Even small swaps—like replacing sugary cereal with oatmeal or choosing fresh fruit instead of a packaged dessert—can create noticeable benefits in focus and endurance. Each choice builds a pattern of care that strengthens your confidence and motivates you to keep going. Over time, your meals become more satisfying not just in taste, but in how they make you feel inside and out.
