The AIP diet saved my life. I have serious autoimmune diseases and I have been drug free from pharmaceutical companies for 12 years!
Yes, the AIP diet can be AMAZING for auto immune. I have seen a lot of patents do very well on that diet. Thank you so much for sharing your experience💚
I love that you're a naturopathic doctor I respect that so much!
Thank you so much! It really is an amazing carrier!
I love this! it’s actually funny I don’t even try to eat anti-inflammatory but my body has just been drawn to it for years now. I prefer leafy greens, brown rice, fish, sushi, poke, salads, ceviche, avocado and eggs too. I need to try the tofu spring rolls! My favorite drinks are water with lemon or beet juice. I have a pressed beet juice obsession. I always feel great after drinking it 😊
Yes, I feel like the term "anti-inflammatory diet" gets brought up so much, but it really is just a diet centered around whole foods! Such a good way to eat for overall health, longevity and energy! Beet juice is amazing, I wish I had a juicer to make fresh juices!
Thank you so much for the comment!💚
I'm on an AIP diet for my Autoimmune disease and I enjoyed seeing some of your food ideas! Even if I have more restrictions than you have on food, its still nice seeing simple whole foods.
Yes, the AIP diet can be an amazing tool! It can be restrictive, but if you get creative you can make such amazing food!Thank you so much for the comment!
Wow thank you so much for this! My Doctor wants me to try an anti-inflammatory diet but I haven't known where to start. Love these what I eat in a week videos, please keep them coming, amazing! God bless
YAY! so glad you found the content helpful! Thank you so much for the comment and support!💚
I just came across your channel and subscribed! Your expertise and knowledge, and emphasis on tailoring these food/meals to your individual needs is great advice. I like the Mediterranean diet and this just makes sense to me. Thank you for showing the daily meals too. That's what I struggle with knowing what to eat. Thanks again!
Welcome! We are so happy to have you here!
Yes, it is very important to me that people understand how to listen to their bodies and have the knowledge and tools to create a diet that works for them!
I think the Mediterranean diet is a great place to start because it emphasizes whole foods, healthy fats, fibre, and protein. Then, you can experiment with different foods and see what works best for you!
Thank you so much for the comment!💚
@@drclairelockridgend Thank you for your comment too!
I loved watching this, and drew so much inspiration in what I made for some of my meals. This is a very practical meal (plan) that I enjoyed following.
YAY! I am so glad that you are getting value out of the content! Thank you so much for the comment!💚
Thank you for the great tips-I like how you keep everything nice and simple! Also-I enjoyed the music you use-very relaxing!🥗
So glad that you enjoyed the video and found it helpful!! Thank you so much for the sweet comment!
This was amazing!! More!
Yay!! so glad that you like the video, thank you so much for the comment!
Love your video. You just get to the point. I'm going to make the spring rolls and start eating my avocados in the morning with an egg. Glad you brought up that sweet potatoes are not considered part of the nightshade family so I will bring back in my diet.
S glad that you enjoyed the video and got some value out of the tips! Thank you so much for the comment!💚
This was great. Love ideas for new recipes
I am so glad that you liked the video!! Thank you so much for the comment!!
SO HAPPY I came across your channel! Daughter has type 1 diabetes, celiac with fatigue and brain fog..want to go more anti-inflammatory for all of us..great reminder to eat those greens! Thank you so much!
SO GLAD that you are enjoying the content! Thank you so much for the comment!! Yes, the greens are so key!!💚
Thank you, she is seeing a naturopath and really hoping this year is a breakthrough! I will share what I watched this morning with her!
@@dianebliquez4852 So glad to hear she is seeing an ND, thank you so much for sharing!
I'm a lacto ovo vegetarian. This is perfect for me. I'm going to try it this week!! ❤ Thank you from England
My pleasure, so glad that you enjoyed the content!
really love the way you eat! so balanced :)
I do my best!! Thank you so much for the comment💚
I started going back to my Mediterranean roots similar to what you eat . The high quality olive oil is a must and Some tahini for almost everything haha . I was vegan then carnivore because sometimes I just see black and white . Now I eat mainly plant based and I started juicing fresh fruits and veggies ! I eat lots of fish too 🐠 . Lamb on occasions just like grandpa does and he’s 95 still working !!
Yes, the internet seems to make us think we have to be 100% plant based or animal based. But really eating lots of different foods is key!! So happy to hear about your grandfather! Thank you so much for the comment💚
I really like your "what I eat in a week" videos, I'm always looking for inspiration, ideas and information on healthy eating/meals. It is also nice as I live in Mississauga so I can definitely find the ingredients/brands that you use. I purchased the Karthean's beet and ginger sauerkraut after seeing that you have been eating it.
Thank you so much for the comment!! Yes, I love that sauerkraut! Not only a great source of probiotics, but also so many antioxidants!!
So simple and helpful 🙏
So glad you liked the video! Thank you so much for the comment!💚
Really enjoyed this. You're showing realistically what it looks like every single day. Wonderful video!! 👏👏👏 And I especially liked that you ate the same thing several times. Doesn't have to be new, every single day/meal. 🍽 Question: are the spring rolls cooked/heated at all? Or just fill them and eat? -Thks in advance for your response.
Thank you so much for the comment!💚
Yes, there is no need to make a new Pinterest-worthy meal every time we eat!! I eat my spring rolls cold, so no heating! Makes for such an easy and quick meal!
Fibre can be hit or miss for people with hypothyroidism and IBS. It can cause bloating and be too much for the gut to digest. Try to cook lightly ,like blanch or steam, to make it more easily dugestible. Also include a source of healthy fat with greens so that the fat soluble vitamins A,E,K can be absorbed n utilised by the body
yes, I have mentioned the benefits of booked veggies for people with IBS/ digestive issues in other vides! I always incorporate source of fat at every meal! Thank you so much for the comment!
What a great video!!!
Thank you so much 💚
I love these videos, they are so close to what I already eat. Do you eat beets at all? Also, what about tomatoes or red peppers?
Thank you so much, I am so glad that you are enjoying the content! I do eat beets; they are great in salads! I do eat tomatoes, red peppers, and other nightshade vegetables, but I just so happened not to have them in the video!
I so glad you eat eggs! I love them. I just found and subscribed to your channel.
Yes, they are such a morning staple for me! So glad that you are enjoying the content! Welcome to the channel, I am so excited to have you here!
Do you reheat the sweet potato when you add it to your salad. Would regeating destory the resistant strach?
I do not reheat them for my salads! But you can reheat them and they are still a resistant starch!
I have the same issue with coffee. So I don't have it during the work week, just on the weekend with breakfast.
Love this! Its great when we listen to out bodies, they always know best! And I love a coffee on a slow weekend morning!
What is that on your plate in your first breakfast beside the eggs and the avocado? Is that aubergine or is it fried tempeh?
Hey @patriciaagbonlahor1520 it is some left over roasted Japanese and purple sweet potatoes!
Isn’t garlic a formal tho. I think you can replace with ginger which is a healthy alternative. But what do you have in a jar in the first meal? Is it fermented red cabbage?
Hey, not sure what you mean by formal, do you mean FODMAP? Garlic is a great food, it has a lot if benefits!
Yes, That is sauerkraut, i believe it has red and white cabbage and beets!
Hello. Just found your channel! Excited to follow. If I may inquire please about the brand of cooking pans?
Welcome, we are so excited t have you here! In this video I used the Xtrema pans, but I have recently switched to the PADERNO stainless steel pan! I will link them both below!

Hope that helps 💚
@@drclairelockridgend Thank you kindly!
Loved this video. I and gluten and dairy free. I have MS and have been told to avoid legumes??
So glad that you like the video, thank you so much for the comment!
So MS is considered an Auto Immune condition. Often times people with AI conditions are advised to stay away from some food including legumes, but it depends on the person. It is always bets to talk to you health care practitioner for specific diet recommendations💚
All of you avocados are perfectly ripe! They are so hit or miss for me.
@@susanpardeshi8664 haha, I have a very good avocado system going! I pick them up every few days at the store, so I always have ripe ones! But sometimes I get bad ones too!
Ooh I love Avo, eggs and salad. Perfect for me
Yes, it is such a staple for me💚
Hi Dr. Lockridge! I just came across your channel and I'm very excited and interested in learning more about taking better care of my body! I have been suffering from chronic inflammation and it is causing so many problems obviously. It would be helpful to me personally if you can share more about the best foods eat to combat inflammation... Just like this video.. which I absolutely loved. ALSO, there are so many olive oils out there and i wanted to know which brand do you personally buy. I use Chosen Foods Avocado oil, but I'm not too sure which specific Olive oil to buy. Thank you so much! Keep up the great work. Trust me you are helping so many of us🪴🌿💐
Hi! Welcome to the channel, I am so happy to have you here!
I am so glad you are taking a food-focused approach to your health!
Chosen Foods: Avocado oil is excellent! That is the one I use!
For olive oil, I use the Terra Delyssa Extra Virgin Olive Oil ( I like it because it is organic, non-GMO, cold pressed, Extra virgin, comes in a dark glass container and is 100% Olive oil. Some other good brands are Partanna and Paesanol.
But really, when you are buying olive oil, there are a few things you want to look for:
Look for extra virgin olive oil/cold-pressed oil (this oil is made from the first pressing of olives without the use of heat or chemicals). Check the Harvest Date (High-quality olive oil should have a harvest date or "best by" date printed on the label. ) Packaging (Olive oil is sensitive to light, heat, and air, which can degrade its quality over time) I recommend olive oils that come in dark colored glass bottles or opaque containers. I also recommend avoiding ones that come in plastic containers.
I know that was long, but hopefully, it gives you an idea of what to look for in case you can't find specific brands.💚
Are you adding raw or cooked tofu to your salads (Thursday specifically)? And is it true that nuts/seeds are best eaten in their raw state due to roasting disrupting their oils?
So I batch prep my tofu, I will season it and bake it. The tofu I used on Thursday was bakes with tamari, garlic and maple syrup. I will add it to my salad cold. Although you can eat tofu uncooked, I generally like to cook it first, even if I will eat it cold.
In terms of the nuts, raw nuts generally have more nutrients because they haven't been exposed to high heat during the roasting process, which can degrade certain vitamins and minerals. However health benefits of consuming roasted nuts typically outweigh the nutrients lost in the cooking, so I still think they are a great option! Just keep an eye out for what they are roasted in/ seasoning/ ect...
Hope that helps!
Thanks for your reply! I just subscribed 😊
@@SJ-zw4cw your welcome! Welcome to the channel!
you seem to have really good willpower. in college, when i didn't work, i was able to stick to a paleo lifestyle most of the time. after working (and stress), i couldnt find the willpower and gained weight. i know meal prepping helps sometimes. and i know that i need to indulge in nutrient dense foods (liver, butter, etc.,)... what would you do in my shoes? love the videos. new subscriber
Hey! So I really don't have too much will power (and I don't think it is necessary for a healthy lifestyle!). Over many years I have made systems and habits in my life to support my health!
If I was starting from where you are I would write out 4-5 health habits I want to do (ie. high protein breakfasts, gym 3 times per week, ect...). Pick one and focus on that habit. Once you feel you are doing that consistently you can add another. The biggest mistake I see people make is that they try to do everything all at one (and of course it is too much)!
Hope these tips help💚
Okay that mug in the first scene, LOVE! Where did you get it?
I know!! I am obsessed with Tutor history, so I had to get the mug! I got it at the christ church gift shop while I was traveling in the UK last year! Here is a link I found online: shop.westminster-abbey.org/henry-viii-and-six-wives-bone-china-mug
@@drclairelockridgend Tudor history is incredibly fascinating, thank you for the link!
I’m allergic to avocados and don’t love them anyway. What would you recommend as a substitute? Thanks so much!
Hey! Nut butters, olive oil, nuts and seeds can all be other sources of healthy fats! If you are looking to replace the creamy texture of avocados then hummus is a great alternative too! hope that helps💚
My dr told me to cut out caffeine to reduce inflammation (I have PCOS), do you think matcha's antioxidants outweigh the possible inflammation from caffeine?
The relationship between caffeine and inflammation is nuanced, and there are a lot of factors at play!
Matcha does have less caffeine than coffee and is a good source of antioxidants. I would also ask why they told you to cut out the caffeine (we know that caffeine impacts women with PCOS though a number of mechanisms). The biggest thing to consider as well is what you are consuming your matcha with (milks/ sugars/ ect...).
There are also a ton of great non caffeinated teas that have a lot of antioxidant benefit. Including ones that have specifically been shown to improve symptoms in women with PCOS!
@@drclairelockridgend thank you!
Great video! What are your thoughts about consuming that much avocado regularely? I'm trying to reduce my avocado consumption because of the impact on the environment .... what could be a good substitute?
Ohh, I have not given much thought to the environmental impact of avocados (thanks for bringing it up!)
The main reason I eat avocados is that they are high in MUFAs, fibre, vitamins, and minerals!
Including lots of EVOO, flax seed oil (not heated), nuts, and seeds can be good sources of healthy fats. Lots of fruit and vegetables will be good for fibre, vitamins, and minerals!
If you are looking for something to replace the texture of avocados, I like using tahini or hummus when I need a creamy component to a dish!
And walnuts and eggs!
Wow I’ve never heard of resistance starch! I love apple celery juice to me it almost taste like store bought apple juice. What do u think of adding more seaweeds and herbal teas to the diet? If yes then what kinds do u suggest
I love adding seaweed and teas to my diet. When I cook rice I try to remember to add kombu to it. I also love herbal teas, you can check out my latest WIEIAW for info about the tea that I have currently been drinking: th-cam.com/video/E6CwQl_9x-s/w-d-xo.html
@@drclairelockridgend thx 💕
Is there a reason you like resistant starch in the morning? Thanks!
No specific reason! Its just nice to not have to cook any starch in the AM, makes for an easy breakfast!
I recently found your channel and I can't get enough. I live in a part of the southern US that does not have access to any naturopathic doctors and I wonder if such a physician could help me. I am an older women with multiple issues including neuropathy ( I'm not diabetic or pre-diabetic ) FIbromyalgia, IBS and depression and anxiety and early COPD ( I never smoked). I have tried to follow a gluten free diet and then a Keto diet and after having breast cancer and chemo 24 years ago I find myself hesitant to use herbal remedies for fear that they might over stimulate estrogen in my body and create a recurrence of my cancer. I am at my lowest point right now with body pain, foggy brain ( gabapentin for neuropathy), horrible digestive issues and complete exhaustion. I don't know where to begin to help myself. Doctors just want to pump me full of drugs and offer little or no help in giving me any hope for a more normal life. I do walk almost every day ( usually for about 45-60 mins) but lately the pain that I experience afterwards almost makes me not want to go. I try to do upper body exercises but they often make my pain worse and that lasts for days and days. I don't know what to do. I am afraid that in another year I will be unable to do anything I love. Many of the things I used to do I find I am no longer able to comfortably participate in . My immediate family is not understanding and really do not offer a lot of comfort or support. They are tired of my constant health issues. Many of my friends have fallen away. I became isolated during the pandemic for fear that if I got COVID it would be impossible to recover from. I am still uncomfortable in crowds and restaurants and therefor do not go out socially very much. I will continue to watch your videos in hopes that I will find some really good information that will help me recover my life. I do eat well with lots of vegies , some fruit, lean meat( mostly chicken and salmon) , salads ( too many raw vegies is hard on my digestive system) , organic eggs and flax seeds, nuts, pumpkin seeds etc. Thank you for posting all your videos , I really am grateful for your valuable information.
Thank you so much for sharing your story!! I am so sorry to hear about the struggles that you have been having with your health, but at the same time I am so inspired that you are continuing to try and take action to move your health in the right direction! Yes, it seems like you have many concerns, and I do really think you would benefit from seeing an ND! Depending on the state you live in there may be NDs practicing, even if it not a "licensed state" (aanmc.org/licensure/).
In the mean time I am so happy to hear that you are getting value out of the videos! Nutrition and lifestyle truly can have such an amazing impact on our health!
Claire what are your thoughts on fats causing insulin resistance as many of the plant based Dr. say more than 20-30 grams a day should be the limit. So many different views out there.
Hey! So I think its important to remember that not all fats are the same. The source and the processing of fats matter too! Things like cold pressed EVOO, avocado, nuts and seeds are going to be a lot different than a lot of fats we eat today! I also think it important to think about what we are eating the fats with! Insulin resistance is defiantly a very interesting topic, and the nutrition advice can be very confusing. I'm planning to make more videos about the topic!
How did you make the blended matcha ?
I just mix matcha powder, soy milk and maple syrup in a little blender! Hope that helps 💚
Would just cooling instead of freezing the carbs make them become resistant starch? Also, would reheating the cooled carbs decrease or affect the resistant starch (and calories) in any way?
You do not need to freeze them, I just let them cool to room/ fridge temperature! You can reheat them, and it will not change the resistant starches, so you are still getting the benefits!
Thank you so much for the comment!💚
@@drclairelockridgend That's great thank YOU sm!
@@hyan1590 my pleasure!
How do you feel about soy? I have always heard its not good for women due to the increased risk of cancer.
That’s strange because I’ve only heard the opposite? That women who consume soy regularly have a decreased risk of breast cancer and colon cancer. I guess that’s what she’s talking about when she mentions all the information we receive being confusing.
Yes, there is a lot of mixed information about soy. Soy contains phytoestrogens, which are plant-derived compounds with a structure similar to the hormone estrogen. They actually help to modulate estrogen in the body and can help reduce menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes. A lot of research shows that soy is not only safe for women to consume but beneficial for their health! It's important to look at the type of soy you are consuming; organic, minimally processed soy, like tofu and tempeh, are great options!
It is also important to remember that phytoestrogens are not the same as Xenoestrogens!
How do you keep eggs from sticking in your iron skillet???
Hey! It is actually a 100% ceramic pan! But regardless if I am using ceramic or cast iron, I make sure it is hot enough and use some oil (usually avocado oil)! I used to have my eggs stick all the time, and they still will if it is not hot enough, OR I move them too early! It takes a lot of time; it just takes some trial and error! Hope that helps💚
@drclairelockridgend ok so I should let pan heat up before adding avocado oil? I do use it.
@cathydiamond6573 Yes, let it heat up first, then add the oil right before the eggs!
@drclairelockridgend thank you Dr Claire. I've been doing it wrong.
I love ice water on my face in the morning. It’s the best.
Yes, it is the best! Thank you so much for the comment!💚
What olive oil do you use?
For olive oil, I use the Terra Delyssa Extra Virgin Olive Oil ( I like it because it is organic, non-GMO, cold pressed, Extra virgin, comes in a dark glass container and is 100% Olive oil. Some other good brands are Partanna and Paesanol.

I see you added parsley to your salad, may I ask why? Nice video!
I love the taste! Parsley is probably my favorite herb, I add it to basically everything! Herbs (dry and fresh) are also super nutrient dense. 10/10 would recommend! Thanks so much for the comment, so glad you liked the video!
This would be FAR more helpful if you explained explicitly what you are eating because no- we can’t see what all the ingredients are. For example the brown food at breakfast… sausage? Potatoes? What seasoning was in your spring roll dressing? You mention many things but just take a minute to go through the list completely.
Thank you so much for the comment! I do my best to explain everything but sometimes the clips go so fast! I will do my best to slow down in future videos! Thank you so much for the feedback!
The brown food at breakfast looked like roasted Japanese sweet potatoes.
@@username00009 yes, it is! And the spring roll dressing recipe is in my latest video!
Wow you sound so angry.
I think it’s different for everyone. Eggs are very inflammatory for me. Grains and gluten are not
YES!!! This is so true!! Whole foods are great, but everyone reacts to things differently. That is why I always stress to listen to your body! Thank you so much for the comment💚
How many minutes do you boil your eggs?
8 minutes for large eggs, then right into an ice bath!
@@drclairelockridgend , Thank you 🥰
@@Beautifully_Blended my pleasure! 💚
I eat only organic but for 4 years coming on burning in stomach and terrible bloating. With each daily meal I get more bloating. I don’t understand……. Maybe it is the imbalance of microbes ???? I do have yeast and high zonulin. Any ideas anyone?????? Unless the addiction to breads and oats I think sent me into this horrible stomach feeling I stopped all gluten
I am sorry to hear that you have been having digestion issues! It seems like there could be a lot going on! If there is high yeast, then you would want to work with a practitioner to help clear that infection and address the high zonulin!
Hi Claire, thank you for your content. The fact that you have quality content for free goes to show how much you just want people to be well.
This is really bothering me and I just wanted to ask someone. Shouldn’t all doctors use holistic therapies? What’s the difference between a naturopathic doctor and a general GP. Oh I’m in Australia so we call just a doctor you would go to if you are sick a GP. You might there too.
Also, when you decided to study how did you choose this path. Why wouldn’t every doctor want to choose the holistic path.
Thanks for your time 😊
Thank you so much for the sweet comment!
Okay, this is going to be a long response because I can talk forever about this!
All doctors SHOULD use holistic therapy; however, health care currently is not set up for that. I am licensed in Ontario, and in Canada, health care is run by the provincial governments (in Ontario, health care is known as OHIP). The system only allocates 15 minutes for visits with people's GP, and are often limited to 1 concern per visit. More time is needed for a holistic approach.
I do not work in the OHIP system. Patients pay out of pocket to see me or use private insurance, which means they have a lot more time. My initials are 90 minutes, and follow-ups are 30-60 minutes. This means I have plenty of time to address multiple concerns, educate the patient, and discuss lifestyle and diet changes in depth!
The main difference between an MD and an ND is our education. NDs have a lot more nutrition and lifestyle training, and we are educated in botanical medicine and nutraceuticals that are not part of MD training. We also have some training in pharmacology. On the other hand, MDs have extensive training in pharmacology and are amazing at treating acute conditions. Both have an important role in the health care system.
I hope that answers the question; let me know if anything needs to be clarified!
I chose to be an ND in my last year of undergrad. I was going to be a nurse ( I wanted to connect with patients), but after looking more into it, it wasn't a good fit for me. I wanted to make more of an impact on the preventative side! I learned about Naturopathic doctors, toured a few schools, and knew it was for me!💚
@@drclairelockridgend I see what you are saying. Thank you so much for the reply, it was so helpful.
I’ve binge watched your content this long weekend and went out and bought some purple sweet potatoes! Hahah
I honestly can’t say thanks enough. I’m stoked you popped up on my TH-cam feed! For the first time I feel like I can really do this and fix my issues with food. I actually feel a little excited about it, purely based off your context. 🙌
@@kel65476 That makes me so happy to hear!! It is so important to me that people feel excited and empowered when it comes to their health! Our bodies are such gifts; we should be excited to take care of them! The purple sweet potatoes are amazing! Thank you so much for the support 💚
Finallllllllly a youtuber w stainless steel pots
Yes!! Stainless steal, cast iron or 100% ceramic!
Hey, I've heard too many eggs in a week isn't good for you ??? I normally only have eggs twice a week. x
Hey, So it depends on why you are avoiding eggs. A lot of research has shown that the cholesterol in eggs/ foods does not impact serum cholesterols the way that we used to think it did. There are a lot of other factors that impact cholesterol (genetics, plant sterol content of your diet, other metabolic factors, liver function, ect...). I also like to eat eggs because they are very high in choline!
Where can I get a jar of beets like that?
It is sauerkraut. I use the brad karthein's sauerkraut, I get mine at whole foods! Hope that helps 💚
All those raw veggies and lettuce would tear me up with my ibs, sadly.
I am so sorry to hear that! There was a long time where my digestion could not handle raw veggies!
My husband, aunt and I all recovered from IBS with the Fodmap diet. I managed with just with the Monash fodmap app and my husband had my prior experience to help. My aunt needed a nutritionist to help her reintroduce foods, which was the support she needed to recover. It's essentially a reintroduction diet (that is often used with allergens) - monitoring symptoms when trying different foods by themselves and also trying smaller portions. The elimination and reintroduction happens while eating a broader range of foods not affected by the fodmap. It is a temporary diet and eventually almost, if not all foods can be reintroduced. If you haven't tried it, it can be a life-changer! I think the stats are that 3 out of 4 people improve. The diet was developed scientifically in Australia at Monash University. I don't know if this will help, but very best wishes to you!
Me too!!
In this type of video, please talk about the actual items, quantities and reasons for each….Otherwise, not really helpful 🥴 for instance… Your eggs look perfect and I would love to know your timing of those❣️
Hey! thanks for the comment!
I never really measure anything, so I can speak too much on the quantity (that is also different from person to person). I do my best to explain what/ why I am eating things, but there is only so much I can say in 20 minutes. But thank you so much for the feedback, will take it into consideration!
The eggs hard boiled for 8 minutes then right into a ice bath!
What liquid went into the matcha drink?
what about protein ? especially if over 35yr old? This doesn’t seem like much.
Hey! I aim for 20-30 grams of protein per meal. This means I will generally end up at 70-80 grams for the day! I am in my 20s so that is a great number for someone of my age/ height! It is true as we age we need more protein, especially as women! You could always adjust the portions as needed!
Eggs are anti inflammarory?
Hey! Eggs are a great source of at soluble vitamins like A,D, E and K, they are also high in B vitamins and choline, all of witch are important to help the body function! Eggs may be inflammatory for some people, but I tolerate them very well!
I was eating a ton of salads but ended up with gastritis. Now I can't eat raw veggies at all, just roasted or cooked.
I am sorry to hear about the gastritis, but cooked and steamed veggies can be a great alternative while the gut is healing!
Isn’t soy bad for women? I’ve been in menopause for about 7 years and estrogen dominant 🤯Never ate tofu or really anything soy dominant. 🤷🏼♀️hard to get those #’s 👇🏼
There is a lot of mixed information about soy. Soy contains phytoestrogens, which are plant-derived compounds with a structure similar to the hormone estrogen. They actually help to modulate estrogen in the body by weakly binding to receptors.
A lot of research shows that soy is not only safe for women to consume but beneficial for their health! It's important to look at the type of soy you are consuming; organic, minimally processed soy, like tofu and tempeh, are great options!
Of course, you should talk to your doctor about blood work and what specific diet recommendations are right for you!
Hope that helps💚
I'm allergic to eggs and avocados 😢
So sorry to hear that! greek yogurt, protein smoothies or scrambled tofu can also make great high protein breakfasts!
I can't eat eggs allergic!
For some people that can't tolerate eggs tofu, tempeh and meat can be other great protein options!
I don’t get this video. there is no recipes at all just reading stuff from books really plain and boring, it’s frustrating seeing someone cooking who supposed to inspire you to specific food/recipes without recipe or knowing what is it
Yea, I don't really do well with recipes, although there are a ton of other videos on You Tube with specific recipes!
Where in the af did you get that dunking your head in ice cold water stimulates the vagus nerve
Pub Med! Cold stimulus to the face and cold exposure have both been shown to help activate the parasympathetic nervous system and the vagus nerve! There have been many studies showing its impact on the NS and HRV!
