Are fruits and veggies your jam? According to Dr. Liz, a plant-based diet “means eating more plant-based foods such as all sorts of fresh veggies (eaten raw or prepared minimally with healthy fats), vegetable proteins and whole grains, fruits and other farm-to-fork foods.” From apples to tofu and everything in between, Nugget Markets offers a bounty of produce and plant-based deliciousness, including a large variety of plant-based snacks like these.
Calling all Keto fans! If you’re following the Keto diet, we have just the foods for you. According to Dr. Liz, “this diet omits virtually all carbs except leafy greens and a few other veggies, as eating under 30-40 grams of carbs daily puts your body into a state of metabolic ketosis. In place of carbs, eat more fats and keep protein moderate.” For a wide variety of foods and ingredients that follow the low-carb, high-fat standard ideal for Keto snacking and cooking, drop by your local Nugget Markets!
Curious about Whole 30? According to Dr. Liz, “this plan’s premise is a diet reset for 30 days. Replace processed, artificial ingredients, sugars, alcohol, soy, grains, beans and dairy products with veggies, fruits, eggs, fish, meats, nuts and seeds along with some healthy fats.” In addition to the cleanest meats and high-quality produce required for this lifestyle, Nugget Markets also offers a variety of Whole 30-approved proteins, snacks and marinades. Check out a few of our favorites!
Picking up the Paleo plan? “Think caveman,” Dr. Liz says. “According to this plan, if your ancient ancestors didn’t eat it, then you shouldn’t eat it. The Paleo diet omits all refined and processed foods, all sugars, beans, peanuts, whole grains and dairy of any kind.” From the frozen section to the grocery aisles, find grain-free and gluten-free items at your local Nugget Markets that are also perfect for a paleo menu.
