• Healthy fats from nuts, seeds, flax, and chiaMicronutrients
• Fiber
• Iron
• Calcium
• Omega-3s
• Antioxidants

Food does it better.When you regularly aim for 12–15 Daily Dozen items, you are supporting:
• Energy and satiety
• Digestive health

• Long-term metabolic and cardiovascular healthNo 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.
