clean eating question

jkleeh

So I am pretty sure I understand what all is involved in clean eating but I think I need a couple of things answered for me.

I understand clean eating means no processed junk foods but like for lunch I will eat a sandwich on whole wheat ham sandwich with mustard is the mustard not considered clean eating? If the lunch meat says its 100% natural does that mean it is considered clean? Or maybe I don't understand clean eating and it just means eating fresh fruits and vegetables?

IS there someone who can clear it up for me? I am just wondering if I am not eating as healthy as I think I am.

I think lunch meat really isn't clean because it is so high in sodium.

When it comes to meats, clean eating would be buying meats straight from a butcher, not pre-packaged meats. Eat fruits and veggies, read labels... Typically those items with more then 6 ingredients aren't 'clean'. Grains are also clean {whole grains, no white flour}.

I eat clean probly 90% of the time. I don't buy my meat straight from a butcher, if possible try and get the 'lower sodium' deli meats.

You have to make sure the mustard seeds were washed with soap in order for them to be clean.:laugh:
