Frequently Asked Questions
Can this program work for all diet concerns?
At calyx health and fitness, getting you the results you desire is our top priority. Whether it's dropping a few pounds, building muscle, or making health your top priority for the first time, our programs are specifically tailored to your needs. No matter what your diet tolerance is, as long as your macronutrient needs and daily calorie intake are on track, you will get the results you are looking for.
Diet concerns such as low FODMAP tolerance, gluten sensitivity, lactose intolerance, and diabetic, vegetarian or vegan diets are all manageable with coaching from calyx health and fitness. Once you consume enough protein to support your activity level, the rest of your diet is made up of the fats and carbohydrates you enjoy and can tolerate. Factors like energy density, fiber and micronutrient content are important for your health and satiety and can have an impact on your workouts and other activities.
Healthy options for satiety, include potatoes, avocados, beans, cottage cheese, yogurt, fish, poultry, and eggs. Fibrous vegetables including pumpkin, broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms, asparagus, spinach and squash are filling and full of micronutrients. Most fruits such as strawberries, pears, peaches, and berries are highly satisfying.
Keep in mind, the type of carbohydrate you eat, whether simple or complex, matters little; what matters is the food's nutritional value, such as its fiber and micronutrient content.
