How to Maintain Net Gain Food Containers

High net-gain foods are those that give the most energy and nutrition to the body, with the least amount of energy expended in their consumption and the least amount of waste, according to ThriveDiet.com. The concept is promoted through the "Thrive Diet," made popular by Brendan Brazier, Ironman triathlete. Maintaining net-gain food containers should be no different than maintaining any type of food storage container. However, you might want to mark the high net-gain containers, as they typically will not contain meat.



The Natural Foods industry has created a type of supplementation called extracts and concentrates. They essentially remove the bulk and water out of highly nutritious foods and leave the nutrients behind. Superfoods like broccoli, kale, spinach, papaya, beet juice, carrot juice, pumpkin, cherry, artichoke, high quality proteins, and many, many more can be extracted or concentrated and combined together into one meal...a super meal that showers your body with more nutrition per gram than any other food known to human kind. And it's virtually pre-digested so it can dramatically lower nutritional stress and provides a high, net-gain in energy.
