- About Dr. Mary Claire Haver and The Galveston Diet -
Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a passionate women’s health advocate who believes women in midlife deserve to live their best life. She cuts through fat-shaming and fads, so women are empowered with the science behind anti-inflammation nutrition.
Dr. Mary Claire Haver is a wife, mom, physician, and entrepreneur who has devoted her adult life to women’s health. As a Board-Certified OBGYN in the Houston area, Dr. Haver has delivered thousands of babies, completed thousands of well-woman exams, counseled patients, taught residents, and did everything an academic professor and OBGYN could do.
As her patient population aged, Dr. Haver was overwhelmed with the number of complaints and concerns her patients had with weight gain while going through menopause. For years, she told her patients to eat less and exercise more. It wasn't until she experienced the changes of menopause and mid-life weight gain that she realized this advice doesn't work and ultimately led to her creating and developing a new program, The Galveston Diet.
The Galveston Diet is the first and only nutrition program created by a Female OBGYN, designed for women in menopause. The Galveston Diet helps women reach their health and wellness goals through an anti-inflammatory approach to nutrition. Dr. Haver believes in food's power to combat inflammation and highly recommends the unlimited benefits of intermittent fasting. As part of her ongoing research, she became certified in Culinary Medicine in 2019, specializing in medical nutrition. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
If you don't like salmon or don't eat meat/fish. Use flaxseeds/chia up to 1/2 cup ground or up to 3 tbls of flax seed oil.
I am a very menopausal 54-year-old woman, and I am so grateful to have found your channel. Thank you.
Me too!
Yes. Me to. 51 and a emotional wreck this week! I have bought so many supplements and thx to Dr Mary I have learned so much. ❤❤
52 post menopausal and until I found Dr. Haver I was in hell and now slowly crawling out of purgatory!
Sardines are also good to eat because you are eating the entire fish including the skin and bones.
I have been SCREAMING help....to my doctor's for 2.5 years. You are so clear and easy to understand. You GET IT! Where are you?????? I am desperate for help. Looking up the Galveston diet now. Again trying to help myself where my doctor's fail.
My clinic is in Friendswood Texas, Maryclairewellness.com
Maybe find another - or additional - doctor ?! For gyn, one who is a member of NAMS- makes a huge difference !
@@maryclairehavermd8473 dr. Marie, love your channel and I follow a lot of your advice. I am almost 54 and going through menopausal symptoms….i have high cholesterol. Would the foods you suggested help control my cholesterol as well? TIA
Even if you're not going through menopause - this is a great list & great info! Thank you ;-)
I am making notes as I am listening to you. THANK YOU!
Truly helpful info. Will make dietary changes right away. Thanks for your help Dr. Haver
I will do this !!! Thanks, I love your outfit by the way!!
Nice video one thing I can say that helped with hot flashes was eliminating all dairy unless it was organic also meat has to be organic it was so precise that as soon as I ate at a restaurant or at a friend’s house I that night the hot flashes would be unbearable. But a few days of no hormone dairy or meat almost no flashes. Ashwaganda helped too❤️🙏
Ooh, I cut out sugar, and that REALLY seemed to help. I was already lifelong vegetarian, so now I'm about 98% vegan. I don't "suffer" too much now.
That’s brilliant
Only "Wild Caught" salmon. Very important. TY for the video.💅
That's exactly what I eat. Greek yoghurt with blueberries and walnuts! :) I add some beetroot powder and a little bit of cocoa. All organic. And of course the coconut :) exactly what I do. Love it.
This is basically my whole diet I’m 45 now I have mean symptoms and I was really excited about this video I’ve always been really thin and never had a problem with weight gain suddenly in the last year I have cellulite on my stomach and a pretty good tummy but like I said the foods you mentioned here is what I’ve lived on for at least the last decade ??!!
Love you girl!! VERY informative! Keep up the great information.
Thank you so much!!
OMG Mary Clare, that yogurt parfait was the best thing I've ever tasted!!! Thank you sooooo much.....yummmm 😋
Never would have thought to do this myself lol
Thanks for sharing this valuable information
I needed this thank you 😊
You are so welcome
I’m feeling encouraged here, for a change 😂 - Already eating kale, full fat Greek yogurt, and lemon every day, with almonds or pecans for snacks. I need to work on the avacado and salmon. I’m not a fan of fish in general, but I will try some fresh salmon and see...
Thanks so much. I am now 61 yrs young. Had Hysterectomy at 32 (after birth of 2nd premie), due to serious issues. Have Systemic Lupus, causing Cardiomyopathy... damage from yrs of SLE causing stage 3 CKD, and CHF, and also have RA and the list goes on!!! Too many organ and joint surgeries to count! Anyway had really hard time with Menopause espec being so young after Hysterectomy. I couldnt go on Hormone repl cuz Ive had 2 DVT's and positive Anticardiolipin...Had severe hot flashes for yrs. I went on Black Cohosh as suggested by my PCP because of how I cant take Hormone Repl Therapy, and it helps me immensely! The hot flashes diminished! It is a Godsent for me! Ive been eating this diet your explaining for a few yrs, and I maintain 120 lbs. It works! Dont get me wrong, I love candy! But when I eat my parfaits with fresh berries and nuts I feel like im eating desert and it satisfies me. Im not saying I never cheat...you have to cheat sometimes, and reward yourself, but put it into perspective! Ive recently had 4 major reconstructive jount replacement surgeries of both hands from damage of a double wammy having SLE & RA damage! Just because my hand are recouping doesnt mean my legs arent working! So i keep moving! I Keep walking....I keep moving and exercising with my legs, and for me, thats been the key to this whole issue. Keep moving and exercising, and eat right for your body, and health issues, and you will feel better, and look better too. I promise! Age is not a punishment! It is a reward for those years well spent that we have served those we love. Sit back and enjoy life. No one at 65 is going to look like they are 25! Those were years I served and earned with respect, and I have become friends with them. Society makes aging a defecit....and its a reward for the years Ive spent. Learn to embrace and enjoy the process!
That’s excellent I love your attitude
@@Sunnyfield323 thank you! I do have to work at it at times!!!!! Lol!
HI MARY I'm 75 .very well said . keep up the good positive work. may I suggest not to eat CARBS (potatoes,rice)with red meats.and CARBS with veggies only. I call it "browns with green and whites with greens only. make sense? connie x
🤗😍❤️🙏
@@conniemurphyover70stillgla47 ❤️😍🙏
I've been doing a keto diet and I lost the stubborn 15 pounds that had been dogging me for 10 plus years and my hot flashes stopped. I've never felt better!❤
Good for you.
@@maryclairehavermd8473 Thank you Mary!🥰❤
being in Ketosis helped your hot flashes and how did you measure ketones?
Mary
you are absolutely adorable , natural on camera . Very relatable …. THANK YOU ❤
Thank you for these tips. I will definitely give this a try. I need this bad. 😊
You are so welcome!
Greek Yogurt with full fat is my favorite! I add a teeny bit of granola with nuts.
Love the new haircolor!! Very complimentary ❤
WOW this is great information 😃 thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Such good information. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you 💗
You are most welcome!
I especially love your look in this video. So pretty
Thank you so much for this I found it so helpful I was diagnose with menopause at the age of 19 and at times I have trouble sleeping and my body temperature is always high but I am on H.R.T.
I want to start eating healthier and not be tired all the time.
I am now 27 years old and am learning all about menopause. ❤
19?!
Thank you for sharing your knowledges 🙏🙏🙏
My pleasure! Thanks for tuning in!
Thanks for your good work 😘
Love plain full fat greek yogurt. I add about half a T of local raw honey. Sometimes I add nuts, berries, or cacao nibs.
You look great! I will follow your suggestions. Thank you! 🇨🇦
Greek yogurt,avocado smoothies with honey smoothies are good. I love pecans, almonds.
Very interesting! I am so checking into all this information-thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I eat a whole avocado a day, and I, too, think it is the perfect food. I open it and spoon it out. I buy a bag each week at Costco and usually eat it for lunch. I have some amazing Salmon recipes too!!!! Thank you for all this info!
Huge avocado fan here too!
Hi Tracey; would you share some of your salmon recipes? I like it but get kind of sick of it. I eat it grilled, or baked with a maple / garlic glaze. Thanks in advance for your time, happy eating!
I will substitute it in my tuna (in water) instead of mayo.
Great content 👍!
I love when your wearing your colors! This also.make you look brighter and more youthful! In warm Autumn colors! So beautiful!!!
Yes! Thank you!
Excellent Doctor well explain. ❤
Yum!! Thanks for the 6 foods and their benefits! 👍😄
Our pleasure!
Raises so many questions. Where you are in the US Factory farming of dairy has hormones and huge antibiotic use thereby killing our own guts (re yogurt). And salmon should be wild for sure but what about all the mercury being found in fish? I think it’s much harder to actually eat clean and healthy than ever before. A pure omega3 which has been tested for pollutants (and has removed them) might be a much safer bet. Our oceans have boom e quite unhealthy. Apparently krill oil which is harvested in the oceans around Sweden is good.
Can you please tell me where you got your earrings and your blouse! You look stunning and so glad to find a fellow physician who is interested in sharing knowledge.
You look soooooo pretty! I love this top and the earrings!
🌴🌺 Thank you for all your knowledge. You’re an Angel and I’m so grateful!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Put the avocado in your smoothie, along with the leafy greens, citrus and greek yogurt. Great way to kick start your day!
Sounds great!
POST menopause was when the s***t hit the fan for me. Digestive issues, belly fat…and I have been a lifelong health nut too. Very frustrating.
I hear you!!!!
@Rolling Withthepunches YES!
I am lactose intolerant and I live in a small town. None of my grocery stores carry DF yogurt, so I make my own in my Instapot. I use cultures and westlife soy milk. I make yogurt weekly! It's delicious. I sweeten it with stevia for a parfait or I leave it unsweetened and use it like sour cream for taco salads. It is a game changer for my gut, as I eat it every day. I get soy, protein and probiotics!
Add collagen to protein shakes, or drinks. Your joints, belly, skin, hair, nails will love you.
LOVE IT! I guess I need to get into more salmon.
Please do!
I use whole milk Greek yogurt as a stir in with stir fry when it gets done cooking to make like a cream base.
Alternative for Greek yogurt please. I’m lactose intolerant 😢
I use plain Greek yogurt as a substitute for sour cream in my taco salad (ground chicken instead of beef)
Love this!
@@maryclairehavermd8473 ;
What about smoked Salomon? I love the way you explain things💖👍💕💜💜thank you
Cooked from fresh is always best, but there are benefits to smoked as well.
@@maryclairehavermd8473 thank you
For Greek yogurt I love Cabot’s plain 10% milk fat. It’s delicious. I add 1/4 c frozen wild blueberries for a delicious treat.
great tip!
always get full fat!!!
My local grocery store just started carrying this yogurt and it’s so good!
👋 just found your channel & 1st video I’ve watched of yours 👍 I eat mostly plant 🌱 based,but have been adding a fish dish once week & the recipe I do has salmon 🐟 spinach 🍃 & orange 🍊 dressing 😆 so I just need to make a coconut 🥥 yogurt 🍦 avocado 🥑 nut 🥜 pudding & I’m done ✅ 😉
Awesome! Thank you! Love the feedback.
@@maryclairehavermd8473 Forgot to ask where you got your beautiful top from 😍
Wow. You look amazing!
Oh thank you!
Thank you for this so helpful! Any suggestions if you are allergic to dairy?
Try A2 ruminants
Coconut yogurt
Can you please make a video about hot flashes and the risk of cardiovascular disease?
You are fabulous and so responsive to your viewers!!!
1. Does it matter if the salmon is farmed or fresh?
2.. How many nuts are a good size a snack?
3. Greek yogurt causes me to have burning mouth syndrome. Is there any substitute?
Thank you for your dedication to helping women stay/get healthy! I will have to try self-tanning drops because you look amazing. If you don't already have one, you should post about skincare in perimenopause and menopause. 💛💛💛
Fresh is better if you can find it. We don't count calories - but a quarter cup usually does the trick. Please email us at success@galvestondiet.com for your other questions!
and thank you!
@@maryclairehavermd8473 Thank you, Dr. Haver!
A tablespoon of nuts is my serving size (about 48 calories). I eat salmon 2x a week, do 2 Tbsp flax with .25 cups plain Greek yogurt and .66 cups frozen blueberries at breakfast. Also for breakfast, 2 eggs with about 6-8 oz spinach and a little pico de gallo. Bread bowl of leafy greens for lunch with about 6 oz chicken, fish or tuna. I often just have hot tea for dinner, so my calories vary from 900 to 1500 on alternating days. I walk an hour or do 5-6 ten min exercise videos at least 5x a week. I still track calories, as it seems my body's determined to gain weight! I'm almost 70.
@@staceykersting705 You need to grind the flax !
@@Wombat-pv5eb Of course! Otherwise, they just pass thru intact...obviously!
Thanks so much Dr. Haver! Do nuts need to be raw and unsalted? I just love lightly salted pecans, but they are probably a no no.
You could try soaking organic almonds overnight in organic lemon juice (grate the zest in as well) and spring water. In the morning the skins can be removed easily and they taste much better. It’s because the phytic acid has been removed. The phytic acid must be removed to get the goodness out of nuts.
Thank you🎉
This is very interesting. When I turned 40, surprisingly I started craving Avocado 🥑 of which I never craved before.
On average I eat an avocado a day and NEVER had a taste for it. After avocado, I started noticing that I also craved nuts 🥜 and Greek yogurt.
The other bits I have to work on, but I believe the body tells you what it needs because I continue to be shocked that I have gravitated towards these foods. It’s like when I turned 40, something changed.
Without any attempt to diet. This makes me happy to hear.
I did the same... I cant get enough
I eat salmon 1-2 times a week. Love it. I get Atlantic wild caught. But I did a test recently and I have high mercury. ugh.
Selenium helps with that
I love Spinach, Collards, Mustard Greens, Romaine Lettuce, avacados
Love salmon, fish,
Love Lemons, Limes
Bulgarian Yogurt tastes tart.
I sprinkled nuts on it.
Steaks, Eggs, fresh calf liver,
shrimp, Broccoli,
Sounds great!
I sure wish your channel existed when I was menopausal. What a lonely very depressing time. Thank God it’s over- I really hope women take advantage of your support🙏🏽
Keto messed with my liver enzymes. It elevated my ast to 78. My hematologist/gp told me to stop keto immediately. I gained a lot of belly fat recently and started keto to get rid of it. Have an appointment with a GYN to discuss menopause and hormones. This Chanel hit home. Thank you! 🙏🏻🌺
Great news! Thank you for watching!
Keto made me feel like crap… I felt like a zombie… I also don’t trust a diet that excludes many fruits & vegetables
How can good fats reduce weight?
Will the full fat geek yogurt raise ldl/ bad cholesterol? I eat every food you mentioned lol. Thank you, Dr Haver
I have an avocado a day mashed with lime spread on Keto Toast. 😋
I do not like plain Greek yogurt, but I will put it in a smoothie-it’s the only way to get it down.
I live in MN and we get nearly no sunshine during the winter. If we do get it, the temp is even colder on those days that no one wants to go outside. (Why do I live here?)
For this reason, we northerners depend on the citrus fruits which are in season during the winter months and they taste better during this time. Oranges during the summer are very bland and ridiculously expensive.
I wonder what I could hide avocados in. I’m not a fan of those either. 🧐
Just to let other women know - if you are like me, you will get INCREDIBLY sick and feel terrible when you eat spinach, walnuts, avocado, citrus fruit, lemons, limes, fish (unless flash frozen after catch), yogurt, etc. If you find these wonderful foods are making you feel much worse - then you may be like me and have histamine intolerance. I suffer tremendously when eating these foods (which are normally SO GOOD for you) and it makes me sad. But if you are getting worse and worse when eating these foods, please look into histamine intolerance. I see it happening more and more these days. I'm new to your channel and enjoying your content so much Dr. Mary. Do you have a video on menopause low histamine options for those of us with mast cell issues? Thanks!
Good advice, I'm vegan so no fish and dairy for me, but love the information you are providing. I currently do a Intermittent 16-8 low processed vegan keto life style.
Great! Thanks!
I'm doing this exact diet and I have never felt better in my life. Truly found what works for me- keto vegan and intermittent fasting. Works beautifully for me💕
@@welllivedlife-desireeg2804 Till you start developing deficiency.
@@welllivedlife-desireeg2804 May I ask where are you getting your keto vegan information from? I'm struggling to find information regarding this out on the web, Thanks Desiree!😀
@@SL-1985 please elaborate
just came across your Tictoc and I love your advices. I have osteoporosis and have kidney stones 5t07 mm and I don't know what I should eat. Help me please doctor! Thank you so much in advance
Welcome!! It depends on what type of stones that you have. Ask your urologist for a nutrition list!
I Increase magnesium citrate supplements and I drink apple cider vinegar with water to keep stones dissolved
Look up Dr Berg!
I'm allergic to fish, so what could I replace the salmon with that will have the same positive effect? Living in Spain, the other foods are already a staple part of my diet.
Love this information, just came across Dr. Haver. Considering starting the Galveston Diet.
I am 65, still struggling the weight gained during menopause. Will this help?
You can do it! we have thousands of sTUENTS your age!
Can you explain fodmaps and how they can reduce hot flashes.
Problem with fresh salmon in my country is that it is all farmed salmon which I wouldn't touch with a barge pole. Wild tinned salmon is good.
Good tip!
and if you get it in the BPA free packets it's even better than tins -as tins have aluminum.
Do you have any exact information on what they feed the farmed salmon I literally just sent off an email earlier to a Tasmanian company asking that question
@@Sunnyfield323 did you hear from them?
Make Raitha and enjoy it with your favorite Biryani or Curry Rice. Your smoothies could be mostly Greek Yogurt.
I have salmon with my veggies and high in omega 3s. great for the body.
Hi, just found you and your videos, love them. I used to be able to eat avocado and now I’m having a histamine reaction to them. Is there something else I can eat like that?
Oh no! They are high in fiber and healthy fats, so nuts/seeds would be a good alternative.
What are your thoughts about coffee and caffeine in general?
Great info. For vegans, is plain, unsweetened yogurt just as good? I eat Brussels sprouts every day also. I believe they are high in omega 3s. Do you have any suggestions for chronic joint and muscle pain? Thanks
Raw broccoli the stems It works for me
Hemp seed oil, algae Omega 3 , turmeric - high curcumin extract ( tablets ) , msm powder 3G a day
HI! I'm 75 are you moving enough.sometimes its hard to get started but you will be glad you did. I stared with ballroon dance lessons and getting a 3 wheel bike that I love :) connie x
M. Bishop- For a vegan diet I’d suggest not using a vegan yogurt. The main benefit from it would be the probiotic. Vegan yogurts are typically fairly low in protein and tend to taste kinda gross unless they’re highly sweetened. You don’t want to add sugar to your foods. Do Include lots of tofu, tempeh, mushrooms, seaweed, hemp seeds, quinoa, avocado, chia seeds, walnuts, legumes, veggies, and fruits. These foods provide fiber, vitamins, minerals, and photo chemicals. Tofu, tempeh, hemp, and quinoa are complete proteins. Try to keep your carbohydrate and protein balanced. Most vegan diets are high in carbohydrate which can lead to insulin resistance, particularly as we age. Hope that helps.
@@erinsnook8537 thanks for all the suggestions. Much appreciated! :)
Cutest earrings ever! Love your videos.
I want to gain weight but have a concern for eating fish? Usually just stick to food with no labels but, did down load that Cronometer ❣️thanks
….Wow…. And I changed my Greek yogurt to nonfat about 2 years ago…should of kept that one full fat… Thanks for good info! 😎👍🏻
Thank you for all this information am going through the menopause and I have high cholesterol can I have Greek yogurt ?
Greek Yogurt is allowed on the Galveston Diet, but unless you are a patient, I cannot give individualized advice.
Thanks so much for your videos! Could you comment on high cholesterol issues…? My doctor is soooo worried about my level, but I’m some what on keto and have lost weight since…
Will consider, thank you for brining the topic forward.
Take omega 3 , milk thistle hi strength, choline , inositol so your liver breaks down excess cholesterol. If your not pre diabetic and your diet is anti inflammatory with omega krill oil supplements one doesn’t usually have to worry a lot . Oh add enough fibre as doc says … fibre binds and mops up the cholesterol and takes it out of the body . Kyolic garlic capsules x 2 for 12 weeks Has been shown to help blood pressure and cholesterol
Stress and hormone imbalance can cause High cholesterol
@david, GARALIC brought my cholesterol down. Larry King recommended it back in the 1990's, I tried it for 3 months & it did the trick. If the #s start to rise, back on it I go. Not hard to swallow, no after taste. Been years under control.
It's very difficult to get healthy foods (especially leafy greens, which take forever to eat) when you work 12-hour shifts, have to eat 2 meals at work, and have 10-15 minutes to eat. I'm all about the citrus, nuts, avocado, and greek yogurt, though!
Terrible work condition if only have 15 minutes to eat 😮
@@tisbutaname45 Emergency services are what they are.
@@SpeedNoodles thank you for your service - but you must look after yourself🙏
Bag of greens and a blender would help with greens when pressed for time. 🙂
Are froozen avocados as good as the fresh ones?
I am on breast cancer anti-estrogen pills and getting terrible hot flashes with vomiting. Will this diet help reduce some of these terrible, terrible side effects?
Love walnuts,postachios
Hi to you too!
Please recommend a Greek Yogurt replacement, it causes diarrhea in me, makes my gut unhappy. I’m dairy free. Thank you. Appreciate all your information.
Kefir maybe?
Suggestions for those sensitive to dairy? Any good replacements for Greek yogurt?
email us at success@galvestondiet.com
Good question.
coconut and pili nut like LAVVA!! My doctor put me on them for the probiotics. Both are much better than inflammatory dairy. Gut healing!
@@KJB0001 Thank you for the recommendation. I miss yogurt but my body does not agree with dairy! I've added that Lavva to my list to consider to try! Thank you.
Try A2 ruminants. Try cultured dairy-24 hour for yogurt too, make it at home.
Can you recommend a citrus fruit and which nuts for someone who has hsv2
All of them!
Quick question do you have a substitute for citrus? I’m allergic
I wouldn't eat salmon because of bad farming. Depends on we're it's from. I eat trout, cod, sea bass and take krill oil for omega 3. Flax seeds in boild water take in the morning is good too. Combined vegetable, seeds and animal fats is better than just eating animal fat. Advocardos and oil of evening primrose is good if you cant get anything else in your diet like fish protein and oils.
Monk fruit and stevia great sugar subsitutes
What can I substitute for coconut flakes on your parfait example? I'm just not a fan of coconut. You mentioned that your parfait was perfect on the macros so how can I get the same macros?
Add some extra nuts!
In menopause and getting such fatigue and migraines. I take 350 mg of magnesium glycinate every night for years now. Used to help me keep migraines at bay...not so much now. Suggestions anyone?
I have been taking evening primrose oil for last 3 months following a bout of migraines thanks to perimenapause and its really made a difference. Apparently b vitamins help too.
Lots of great info.
Leafy greens
Salmon omega6 omega3 1:1 ratio
Citrus
Greek yogurt plain (full fat)
Nuts
Avocado
170 or more calories for a 1/4 cup of nuts (depending on the nut) is hard to get past. I am trying though.
What brand yogurt do you recommend
Is Skye, Icelandic yogurt as good as Greek?! And Atlantic (farmed) Salmon vs wild, which is better for menopause?
Yes. Wild.
