What Is a Nutritarian-Inspired Diet? A Beginner’s Guide

Ready to feel vibrant, energized, and healthier than ever? A Nutritarian-inspired diet, based on Dr. Joel Fuhrman’s Nutritarian Diet, is all about packing your plate with nutrient-dense foods to fuel your body and fend off disease. Think crisp leafy greens, juicy fruits, and wholesome veggies—many of which you can grow right at home with a Tower Garden by Juice Plus!

This beginner’s guide to Nutritarian Diet basics will show you how to start eating for a longer, healthier, more enjoyable life.

Core Principles of the Nutritarian Diet

The Nutritarian Diet is like giving your body a daily dose of superfoods. Here’s what it’s all about:

• Leafy Greens and Cruciferous Vegetables: Load up on leafy greens such as kale, romaine, spinach, arugula, and collards as well as cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower. These nutrient-dense powerhouses are among the healthiest foods you can eat.

• Whole, Unprocessed G-BOMBS: Focus on Dr. Fuhrman’s G-BOMBS—Greens, Beans, Onions, Mushrooms, Berries, and Seeds/Nuts—for maximum nutrition.

• SOS-Free Eating: Ditch added sugars, oils, and salt (SOS) and add flavor with fresh herbs, spices, or lemon.

Benefits of a Nutritarian-Inspired Diet

This way of eating can transform your health! Here are just a few benefits:

• Increased Energy: No more afternoon slumps.

• Healthy Weight Loss: High-fiber foods fill you up with fewer calories.

• Disease Prevention: I reversed my own liver disease and high blood pressure with this approach—true story!

• Gut and Immune Boost: Fiber and micronutrients keep digestion and immunity strong.

Getting Started with Nutritarian-Inspired Eating

You don’t need to overhaul your diet overnight. Start small:

• Make Salad The Star: Build a big, nutrient-packed salad as a main meal each day, loaded with Tower Garden greens, raw veggies, and an SOS-free nut or seed-based dressing. Add a warm bowl of vegetable bean soup.

• Morning Boost: Oatmeal topped with walnuts and Tower Garden strawberries.

• Snack Smarter: Cherries, apples, or oranges.

• Green Veggie Power: At least one large serving of cooked greens daily.

A Nutritarian-inspired diet is your ticket to feeling amazing by loading up on nutrient-dense foods like leafy greens and whole plants. With a daily salad as your main meal (and maybe a bowl of veggie soup), you’re on your way to more energy, better health, and a happier you.
