Top 3 Goals for the Food Experiment

Changing your eating habits can be difficult. Use these important metrics in your hypothesis statement for the food experiment so that you will be motivated to create and sustain the change:

1. hsCRP: Plant based diets and the Mediterranean diet especially if you are already significantly limiting carbohydrate intake are anti-inflammatory. Further, if you are losing weight and using intermittent fasting, you can expect your levels of inflammation to go down.
   

2. Triglyceride: Triglyceride levels are a sensitive indicator of insulin resistance and decline when you remove red meat, pork and even chicken from your diet.
   

3. Fasting Insulin: Has been shown to decline with intermittent fasting, but you should expect plant-based diets to reduce it as well.
