What about some meatpacking?
Care🍀 Reducing red meat in your diet can be a meaningful step for both health and well-being. While meat is packed with protein, iron, and B12, it’s also often dense, harder to digest, and linked to health risks when over-consumed. Choosing lighter, plant-based alternatives can support clearer energy levels and align with a more balanced, heart-healthy lifestyle.
Curiosity📚 Human physiology provides hints that we may not be built for heavy meat consumption. Unlike true carnivores, whose short digestive tracts allow for quick digestion of meat, humans have long intestines, meaning red meat moves through slowly, which can put extra strain on the body. In Ayurveda, red meat is considered a “tamasic” food—one that may dull the mind and body over time, promoting heaviness and lethargy rather than vitality.
Creativity🤸♀️ This week, aim for one plant-based day or meal where you instead “pack in” heart-friendly foods like beans, lentils, chickpeas, and whole grains. If you do choose red meat, try to choose organic sources that prioritize animal welfare and offer the best possible conditions.
Credit🤍 Our beloved friends do share the same light within —a light force that deserves respect, compassion, and kindness. By making these mindful food choices we are crafting a world of empathy and care for every life, one meal at a time.
Side Note🙏 Changing dietary habits is a journey. If you’re reducing meat intake, make sure you weigh in and balance your nutritional needs. We believe in making gradual changes, slowly introducing and balancing your diet so your body can adjust to each new health note.
Until next week,
Love HealthNote💚
