description: "Stop being fooled by the idea that "expensive = nutritious"❗️ Always think that only lobster, abalone, and imported ingredients are nourishing? That's completely wrong❌ Food is expensive mostly because of scarcity, shipping costs, and packaging, it has nothing to do with actual nutrition.Affordable eggs, fish, shrimp, and tofu are just as rich in protein as expensive seafood.Seasonal fruits and vegetables are fresher and more nutritious than imported out-of-season ones～ Healthy eating has never been about competing on priceEating right and eating a balanced diet, even ordinary ingredients can help you build a healthy body✨"
