About the Whole30 Diet

Pro Tips
- 1Always read labels carefully to ensure sausages and bacon contain no added sugar or nitrates.

- 3Use Ghee instead of butter to keep your meals compliant while maintaining a rich, buttery flavor.
- 4Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or olives to stay full longer and avoid mid-morning cravings.
- 5Focus on savory breakfasts rather than fruit-heavy ones to help reset your taste buds and reduce sugar cravings.
GAYA Tracking Tip
When using GAYA's photo logging, take the picture from directly above the plate in good lighting. This allows the AI to clearly distinguish between compliant proteins and fats, ensuring your Whole30 macro tracking is as accurate as possible.
