Ordinary Vegan Podcast #5: How To Lose Weight and Eat More Calories on a Vegan Diet
Take a new approach to your diet by understanding calorie density. Calorie density is the simplest approach to healthy eating and lifelong weight management. Learn how to eat more food for fewer calories.
A food high in calorie density has a large number of calories in a small amount of weight. Whereas a food low in calorie density has much fewer calories in the same weight of food.
Foods low in calorie density also tend to be higher in satiety. Satiety is the state of being completely satisfied with less calories.
Learn more about calorie density in this week's podcast.
We also discuss the connection between childhood trauma and chronic disease.
