When you understand that nutritional mastery happens in stages rather than a good or bad binary, everything changes…We all say it…“Just a little treat.”Or the opposite… “I can’t eat that, it’s not in my plan.”Neither is wrong. They’re just different stages of how we deal with food.Nutrition doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s not about chasing the “perfect” diet, it’s about knowing yourself and making food work for your life.🎯 Take the free BSFT Matrix quiz here → https://bsft-health-test.scoreapp.com➡️ Join a Peak info session: https://www.bsft.com.au/peak🔧 RESOURCES & LINKSThe Trigger Tracker → https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1dh_NXYpt9ZzuIREOySOGx3TAf6waoz5XAyla Health → https://aylahealth.com.au/🔸IG Dave Nixon → @davenixonflow🔸IG Kate Freeman → @kfnutrition🔸 IG Alice Jane → @aliceejane🔸 Substack → http://www.substack.com/@davenixonflow🔸 Youtube → https://www.youtube.com/@davenixonflow*If you prefer visuals and want to see how this model maps out, you can watch the episode on YT----🧠 ABOUT DAVEDave Nixon is an Author, TEDx Speaker, Wellness and Performance Specialist with over 2 decades hands on experience.
