Exploring the Benefits of Clean Eating and Self-Regulation
Being aware of the impact of certain foods on pleasure pathways and the role of dopamine can help in setting oneself up for success. Clean eating with whole foods promotes self-regulation since they are harder to overeat compared to processed foods. This approach leads to better nutrient intake, energy levels, and overall well-being. Clean eating also tends to increase non-exercise activity thermogenesis, intensify resistance workouts, and potentially boost metabolic rate. Additionally, clean eating can reduce stimulant intake, improve sleep quality, regulate leptin levels, and have positive knock-on effects on health. Despite cycling trends in the diet and nutrition industry, the concept of clean eating has shown to work effectively for many individuals.
