Nutrition doesn't have to be a guessing game. You can learn to eat for YOUR body. It just requires a little work and then a little preparation. The first step is to write EVERYTHING down. This includes when you eat, what you eat, macronutrient ratios in each meal (protein, carbs and fats) as well as emotional state and energy levels. By taking note of these things you can literally have a map drawn out to why you feel the way you do.
The 3 macro nutrients are proteins, fats and carbs. Fats and carbs are really easy to find and often piggy back along for the ride when you eat. Proteins on the other hand require some effort to find. So I always recommend deciding on protein source first when building meals for your meal plan. I am a big believer that protein intake should be minimum 1 gram per pound of bodyweight. This can vary from person to person but I use this as a baseline. It can help with more energy and it can enhance recovery. I hope this was of value for you. Questions are always welcome.
