Make It Yours (Without Breaking the Reset)
- Spice lever: oregano, basil, thyme, chili flakes; unlimited.
- Protein lever: hemp hearts or finely crumbled baked tofu (no oil).
- Volume lever: pile on mushrooms & greens; they tame hunger without spikes.
- Timing: Best eaten earlier in the day or post‑training for superior glucose disposal.
If you’re deep in a reset, default to Version A. When you’ve earned a touch of flexibility, rotate Version B strategically.
