I'm Megan, your nutritional coach. Now, if you're living alone, in a couple or just, cooking for one or two people, this episode has been made for you. We all know life gets busy. Between family, work, study and everything else, it's easy to rely on takeaway or ready-made meals. But what if you could eat in a way that is not only healthier for you, but also better for the planet? As our lifestyles have become busier, many Australians now rely more on takeaways. Food delivery apps and convenient meals are quick and easy options. Takeaway foods are often highly processed and can contribute to poorer diet quality. They have increased packaging waste and greater environmental impacts. Subscription meal kits have also become popular in recent years. These encourage cooking at home, which has helped reduce food waste, but have been found to be high in sodium and fat and portion sizes can be too large. Today, we're going to break down what a sustainable diet actually is, why it matters and give you five simple realistic tips to help you get started.
