When I first started as a fitness competitor, I was so organized about my food. I'd plan my meals, prep them, and stash them in the freezer. Then, each morning, I'd fill up my trusty water bottle, grab a frozen meal, and head out the door – feeling oh so healthy.
I had good intentions, but I later realized I was missing the mark in one big way. I WAS USING A BUNCH OF PLASTIC. ♻️🚯
And what's hiding in all that BPA-free plastic? Potentially harmful chemicals can still leach into your food and drink, causing inflammation and interfering with fitness goals.
But NO MORE. I'm Dr. Venus, and today, I'll share the simple kitchen swaps that helped me reduce plastic use. (And I hope they help you, too!)
