Episode Title: Understanding Micros & Macros – Fueling the Body, Mind, and Soul
To build a strong body, mind, and soul, it’s essential to understand both macronutrients (proteins, fats, and carbohydrates) and micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals). In this episode, we break down how these nutrients work together to support optimal health and well-being.
You'll learn how micronutrients help transport and metabolize macronutrients—and why getting the right combinations matters for energy, recovery, and vitality. Plus, we explore how flavor, aroma, and the preservation of natural qualities are all influenced by powerful plant compounds like phytochemicals.
Whether you’re new to nutrition or looking to go deeper, this episode will help you nourish your body with greater intention.
