A Closer Look at Full & Fulfilled

The Starch Solution is an eating plan formulated by Dr. John A. McDougall. This way of eating includes a complete diet of natural starches like potatoes and rice, non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, and natural fruit. The uniqueness of this diet is that you aren’t eating any heavily processed foods or oil.

Natural starches like sweet potatoes, white rice, beans, and oats keep your belly full and contain the nutrients your beautiful body needs. By keeping your plate simple with starches and vegetables, your belly will stay full longer, you’ll minimize your fat intake, and your body will find its “optimal weight.” (Optimal weight is your body’s natural healthy weight)

Full & Fulfilled is a sustainable lifestyle brand by Liz Illg. After Liz discovered a plant-based diet, restored her health, and regained her energy, she began advocating for healthy living. Through her wellness journey, she became inspired to live sustainably in all areas of her life and to teach others how to do the same.

Liz’s sustainability efforts go beyond choosing better food choices, she grows fruits and vegetables from her home garden, lives minimally, and educates others on eco-friendly living.
