What does it mean to 'eat clean'?

Eating clean refers to consuming whole foods and avoiding processed or packaged meals and ingredients, which will not only improve your physique, but your overall health.

Tips and techniques to ensure you're eating clean:

• Eat 5-6 small meals each day
• Eat every 2-3 hours
• Drink 2 liters of water every day
• Don't skip any meals
• Incorporate many fresh fruits & vegetables for fiber, vitamins, antioxidants, and enzymes
• Avoid saturated fats and trans fats
• Avoid high fructose corn syrup
• Avoid alcohol, which is another form of sugar
• Combine complex carbs and lean protein at every meal
• Avoid white flour and refined sugars

Try packing a small cooler full of clean foods and meals to take with you to work. That way, you'll never have an excuse to go out with your co-workers for fast food, or to hit the vending machines!
