Healthi’s Guide to Carb Conscious

Thursday, Dec 30, 2021 App Help, Featured, Lifestyle

Hi all! Happiest of Holidays!

We know that this is such a special time to be with family and friends. We also know that this can be a hard time for those of us on a weight loss journey. As another year comes to a close and a new one begins to take shape, we know that a lot of people like to reevaluate their health and wellness. We love that! We thought that it might be helpful if we take a step back, and break down the six weight loss plans that we’re famous for. We’ll walk you through each plan individually and whether or not it might be for you. Then, we direct you to plan-specific resources to help you jumpstart your journey!

It’s probably helpful to explain the general “why” around Healthi and the “what” that we help you do!

It’s a proven fact that tracking your daily intake of food and drink can drastically affect more mindful decisions. This can draw a clear cut path to weight loss! Oftentimes, we simply don’t know or even fully understand, the grave effects that certain foods or beverages have on our body. Healthi has, not only, created a seamless process for searching, logging, and tracking your food choices, but a simple system for goal weight setting and achieving through your tracked intake. One of the secrets lies in our six championed weight loss plans. Each plan differs from the others. Based on your typical behaviors and choices, we can recommend a specific plan for you that will best cater to your nutritional needs. Four out of the six plans operate on a “BITE” system. A BITE is a Healthi app specific food scoring system that we’ve created and maintained. This system takes a lot of different nutritional values into account to simplify the tracking of foods into a distilled numeric value.

A Healthi Community favorite is Carb Conscious… and for good reason! Based in the BITE system- carbs, fats, and proteins drive BITES up while fiber keep the BITES low. This plan is typically chosen by people who consume lots of breads, chips, starches or fats and are looking to regulate that.

Carb Conscious is a well rounded diet plan that will redefine your relationship with carbs. Those who overindulge in breads, pastas, cookies, sugary drinks, and sodas tend to find success on this plan. Nevertheless, this plan will also work well for those who are not sure where to start but want a diet that supports a healthy overall wellbeing. More specifically, Carb Conscious is well positioned to help those who are diabetic or pre-diabetic, have hypercholesterolemia, are at cancer risk, or have polycystic ovary disease (PCOS).
