Swap Foods Infographic

Looking to eat healthier but having problems finding substitutions for foods that you love? Check out this SWAP FOODS Infographic …. Just swap THIS for THAT. It’s as easy as that!

swap COW’S MILK for NUT MILK

Nut milk is high in beneficial fats, high in calcium, easier on your digestion, better for your thighs and super tasty.

swap CHOCOLATE for RAW CACAO

Raw cacao is chocolate in its pure unadulterated form and it’s a nutrition packed superfood!

swap SOFT DRINK for COCONUT WATER

Coconut water is a much better choice. It’s been hyped up recently for a reason – it’s full of electrolytes, is naturally hydrating, it’s super high in potassium, it’s alkalising… the list of benefits is lengthy.

swap COFFEE for DANDELION & CHICORY ROOT TEA

Coffee messes with your adrenals big time, blocks absorption of certain minerals and wreaks havoc on your immune system. A great substitute is roasted dandelion and chicory root tea. Plus, it’s something different.

swap CANOLA OIL for COCONUT OIL

When it comes to cooking, coconut oil is the only oil we use at Just Add Good Stuff. It has a high smoke point, which means that it doesn’t turn rancid upon heating (unlike most other plant oils – even olive oil). If you even come close to burning anything but coconut oil, it will release tonnes of harmful free radicals into your food.

swap WHITE PASTA for ANY OF THE BELOW

Mung Bean Pasta, Black Bean Pasta or Quinoa & Brown Rice Pasta are all healthier than bleached white pasta which has little to no nutritional value.

swap WHITE RICE for BROWN RICE

As with white pasta, white rice has also been stripped of its nutrients leaving nothing but a white carb that becomes sugar as soon as it hits your mouth. Brown rice or black rice (even better) is the stuff your body is after when it comes to nutrients.

swap WHITE BREAD for RYE BREAD

For a grain to be white it means it’s had all of its nutrients stripped away. Choose a whole grain like rye, spelt or oat instead.

swap CHEESE for NUT CHEESE

Cow’s cheese comes under the same umbrella as cow’s milk. A much healthier alternative is cheese made from nuts.

swap WHITE SUGAR for NATURAL SWEETENERS

Choose from raw honey, maple syrup, coconut nectar, yacon syrup, stevia or dates.

swap DESSERTS for RAW DESSERTS

There’s no way we’re giving up desserts! So, raw desserts are made of ingredients like nuts, seeds, oats, almond meal, coconut, cacao, dates, avocado, chia seeds and other super foods that are much healthier than traditional desserts.
