Organic produce, artisanal sourdough, strictly grass-fed meat: Yes, they’re ‘good’ for you… but they’re also too expensive for most people. The great news? There are foods that are both nutrient-rich and budget-friendly. In this infographic, we’ll show you five ways to eat healthy on a budget — while making your taste buds happy too.

People who struggle to consistently eat healthier often face one or more of the following common (and very legitimate) challenges:
- Zero time to cook or do meal prep.
- Deeply ingrained food habits that provide a sense of comfort and routine.
- A strong preference for french fries over steamed broccoli.
In Precision Nutrition Coaching, we have a host of time-saving, prioritizing, and palate-developing strategies to help clients overcome these obstacles.
But there’s another everyday barrier to good nutrition that can be a bit trickier to negotiate: Money.
Considering all the pressures and expenses folks are dealing with, it’s understandable that eating healthy can feel financially daunting.
Unfortunately, it’s true that fresh fruits and vegetables, lean animal proteins, whole grains, and nuts and seeds will cost you more than a diet of mostly processed and fast foods.
But it is possible to eat a very healthy diet, even when money is tight.
For this infographic, we collaborated with Community Food Centres Canada to offer five effective, real-life strategies to help you put nutritious, delicious food on the table regularly, sometimes for just a few extra cents per meal.
The coolest part: Some of the changes to your routine may be surprisingly small — yet lead to really big benefits.

Want help becoming the healthiest, fittest, strongest version of you?
Most people know that regular movement, eating well, sleep, and stress management are important for looking and feeling better. Yet they need help applying that knowledge in the context of their busy, sometimes stressful lives.
Over the past the past two decades, we’ve used the Precision Nutrition Coaching method to help over 150,000 clients lose fat, get stronger, and improve their physical and mental health… for the long-term… no matter what challenges they’re dealing with.
It’s also why we work with health, fitness, and wellness professionals (through our Level 1 and Level 2 Certification programs) to teach them how to coach their own clients through the same challenges.
