    Energy

    Digestion

    Heart health

    Instead of perfection, the goal is progress.

    A Note on Protein, Macros & Micronutrients

    (No Tracking Required)

    You do not need to stress about protein, macros, or micronutrients in this practice.

    The Daily Dozen naturally covers your nutritional bases when you focus on variety and consistency, without counting, weighing, or micromanaging.

    Macronutrients
    Protein from beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and meat if you eat it
    Carbohydrates from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains
    Healthy fats from nuts, seeds, flax, and chia

    Micronutrients
    • Fiber
    • Iron
    • Calcium
    • Omega-3s
    • Antioxidants
    • Vitamins and minerals

    This food-based variety is what most supplement routines are trying to replicate.
    Food does it better.

    When you regularly aim for 12–15 Daily Dozen items, you are supporting:
    • Energy and satiety
    • Digestive health
    • Blood sugar balance
    • Long-term metabolic and cardiovascular health

    No tracking required, nourishment comes from consistency, not perfection.

FAQ

What If I Don’t Want to Give Up Meat or Dairy?

You do not need to be fully plant-based to do this program.

If you currently eat meat or dairy:

  • You can continue to include them

  • The focus is simply on crowding in more plant foods first

Think of it this way:

  • Build your meals around plants

  • Add animal foods if you choose, rather than centering every meal around them

Many people naturally find their intake shifts over time, but there is no pressure to eliminate anything.

How Does This Work Without Meat or Dairy?

When meat and dairy are removed, volume and diversity matter.

This practice naturally encourages:

  • Beans & lentils (protein + fiber)

  • Whole grains (energy + B vitamins)

  • Nuts & seeds (healthy fats + calories)

  • Fruits & vegetables (micronutrients + hydration)

When these categories are included daily, meals are satisfying and sufficient.

Will I Eat Enough If I Don’t Eat Much Meat or Dairy?

Yes absolutely. The Daily Dozen includes plenty of satisfying, filling foods, including:

Beans and lentils, Whole grain,s Potatoes and starchy vegetables, Nuts and seeds, Fruits and vegetables, Healthy fats

Beans, in particular, are a key foundation: They provide protein, fiber, iron, and long-lasting energy. They help keep blood sugar stable. They’re deeply satisfying when included consistently

If you eat meat daily now, this program helps you balance your plate, not reduce food or leave you hungry. Eating enough is a priority.

Why 12–15 Checkmarks?

The full Daily Dozen includes 24 possible checkmarks.
While helpful as a reference, hitting all 24 every day isn’t realistic for most people.

12–15 checkmarks per day is nourishing, achievable, and sustainable.

It helps you:

  • Avoid all-or-nothing thinking

  • Establish a realistic baseline

  • Build habits you’ll actually keep

Anything above your normal is a win.
