Plant-Forward Day

A single day built around vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts, and fruit, with meat as an occasional side rather than the main event. It is an easy on-ramp to the well-evidenced benefits of plant-forward eating. Quality matters: whole foods over ultra-processed plant products.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
