Notable Quotes/ Key Takeaways:
- Quote: "Your health is yours. It belongs to you. While you do not have 100% control over it, you do have a great influence on the trajectory that it takes."
- Key Takeaway: Don't rely on airlines or restaurants to meet your dietary needs. Plan ahead and take responsibility for your health, ensuring you have the right foods and snacks to stay nourished.
- Quote: "It is imperative to bring emergency rations with you that are compatible with what your body needs to thrive."
- Key Takeaway: Pack portable snacks like nuts, jerky, dehydrated fruits, and string cheese to avoid unhealthy airport or roadside food options. These will keep you satiated and prevent impulsive, poor food choices.
- Quote: "When you realize that feeling better feels better than the fun foods and culinary opportunities that appear when you're traveling, it becomes much easier to strategize as well as choose foods that are delicious but won't make you sick or won't cause you to gain weight."
- Key Takeaway: Combat FOMO by raising your standards and focusing on quality over quantity. Adopt an 'inner Frenchman' mindset to savor and appreciate high-quality treats while passing on the mediocre ones.
- Quote: "Pull up the menu to a restaurant and ask yourself the two questions: Where will I get my protein? Where will I get my produce?"
- Key Takeaway: Plan your meals in advance to avoid impulsive eating. Focus on protein and produce to keep your meals balanced and nutritious.
