Supermarket & Farmers Market Tours
Personalized supermarket and farmers market tours are one aspect of your individualized nutrition program. After your initial nutrition assessment and any recommended testing, you’ll have an in-depth understanding of your current nutrition on a cellular level. Any nutritional deficiencies, imbalances, or conditions must be addressed and improved via proper diet and correlative nutrient dense foods. Together, we’ll create a shopping list of the foods that provide the nutrients most valuable to your health and individual needs. This list will directly correspond to your customized meal plans.
Our next step is to arm you with the education and knowledge that you need in order to shop easily and efficiently according to your personalized nutritional roadmap. You’ll learn how to shop like a pro during your supermarket and/or farmers market tour! We go to the grocery store of your choice and take an isle by isle tour. Our goal is to provide you with education, insightful tips, and guidance on how to properly make the healthiest food choices to meet your nutritional goals.
During the supermarket tour, you’ll learn how to decipher and interpret food labels, how to read beyond marketing messages, how to differentiate between terms like fat free and low fat, reduced fat and lite, natural and organic, salt free and low sodium, etc. We also help you decide which foods to purchase organic without breaking the bank, while pointing out chemicals, preservatives, and additives that should be avoided. By the end of this session, we want you to feel comfortable and confident about the products you purchase to feed yourself and your family. We hope you enjoy rediscovering your supermarket in an informed and healthy new way.
