I loved your You Tube presentation especially this one I like to see more videos like this on real foods, God bless you for helping others on their quest for good healthy nutrition.
What great information! My daughter gave me one of your books many years ago and I have a few things that I make consistently, but time to go through it again and check out your newer recipes. I love your practical style and so glad that I found you here. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for this. I found you by looking for information on lowering my cholesterol. You are wonderful. I want to enroll in one of your courses, but need to save up for it. Limited budget. But I have been able to make some little changes. Thank you again for all his information. It is also hard because of who I live with, they don't want to make changes.
You are the REAL FOOD whisperer! Can’t miss! Can’t wait! Also I got I got a step counter! Gonna get walkin! I had a stroke a year ago! (‘23). Pacemaker (‘24) New person ! Ready to grow in my health habits!!!! Thank you Zonya!
I just had my Happy New Year! Thank you for this. I believe in real food, I believe in fiber, I don’t eat sugar, but I was drinking on a regular basis. I had an epiphany recently and know that alcohol is running my life. Of course I’m the reason I’m drinking - so here we go! I’m in with you’re coaching. 🥳 Happy Day…
Thanks so much,, Zonya. This was extremely helpful! I was able to purchase your Eat Real cookbook and it is a game changer. I would love to participate in one of your programs but it’s not in my budget right now. Maybe late🤗. Thank you for your treasured availability on You Tube! I’ve begun to make step by step changes and I’m already seeing a difference. Much appreciation for educating us on eating Real Food’♥️
Hello Zonya I am so in love with your channel. Your information is so helpful and clear. Plus I love your upbeat personality. I have been watching your videos every minute. I can over the last several weeks. I just can’t get enough of your information and your recipes, etc. my husband and I have high triglycerides and we’re both on blood pressure medication so you’re recommendations are just spot on and so yummy. Can’t wait to keep watching. Peggy.
Hi Zonya, I have just found your channel and you are so inspiring. I love cooking and practice most of the time EAL of REAL but need to focus more on the R. I will check the website you recommend. Thank you so much for everything you do. Lots of love ❤️👍
I just went through my pantry and am weeding out! Question: what do you recommend when the canned goods say “contains bioengineered food ingredients”? I was shocked by how many canned goods I had said that.
I am 9st and a size 8. I do a lot of walking and my one weakness is the sugar in my tea, and yet I am now told I have high cholesterol 6.9 and have high pressure. I am feeling rather depressed
I even had a huge date to bump up sugar. Wonder if the fennel and what’s in centrum for older age collided? I have fibroids shrinking at 69 but uterus has enlarged, per dr. So maybe fennel fed those. It is not easy to drink that yucky green tea instead w/o caffeine in the am. I will do the beans, fish, and apple instead 😂👍🏻🙏 god bless you. Any help I’d appreciate it
Could you tell me the skinny on oatmeal? I have heard it is unhealthy plus weight gain and others say it is very healthy for you. Would love for you to do a video dedicated to the types of oatmeal what is good and what isn't. And preparation of it. Thanks for this video.
Can anyone help clarify something for me? I recently hired a nutritionist and he says that I need to get my protein from animal sources. When I ask about protein in beans, for example, he said it would count towards my carbs and not my protein. He said animal protein is different than plant protein. I asked my dietitian her opinion, and she said that plant protein is fine to count as protein. I’m not a huge meat eater and eating 70g of animal protein a day doesn’t really appeal to me. I am a cancer survivor so I am trying to eat better and lose some weight. Thanks in advance! ❤
Thank you Zonya. I have lost 10 pounds! I want to know what bread is best. We like the Killer21 grain bread, is that too processed? Is sourdough bread better for me? Sourdough uses white flour. I tend to gain weight with bread. Need to lose 20 more pounds. Also, I found out my cholesterol is high. I have the beginnings of osteoporosis, (a family trait) so I am trying to eat more calcium, cheddar cheese, sour cream, milk, string cheese, almonds, baby mixed greens, etc. Do you have any advice on how to keep my bones strong, and my cholesterol normal??
Yesterday: My weight is 105.13 lbs, 18 BMI which I still find hard to believe because I have so little body fat. I can't pinch an inch., BP 115/72 and pulse 73. I sm 5'4" tall.
When you said there are some beans are good for you, and black eyes peas are the best, how much do you have to eat at a sitting if you have to do this 3 times a week!
Just started to look at your videos and would like to buy your two books. Can I get a special price or a code discount by buying the two books because I am Canadian and it’s already more expensive for me because of the exchange in money. Please help me.
I very frequently 😂 feel I am from 1800th, because I dry my spices at home every year, I canning all this food, every year, make my own jams, my tomatoes sauces, green beans, my own broth, roast my vegetables very often, my onions from the garden. When I add garlic to my food, I use the long cheese grader and hit it a little against your pot! I would like to know if there’s other people who do this, or I am the only crazy?
Zonya,I have been following your diet for 10 days straight without varying at all. But have not seen one bit of movement on my scale! I have a low thyroid and I’m sure that means my metabolism is slow and every time I diet I never lose weight. It’s so frustrating. I’ve got both of your cookbooks and the meals are delicious and they’re also filling so many days. I only eat two meals a day. Could that be the problem? But I’m just not hungry! I do have to say I don’t exercise like I should being hypothyroid. I am tired all the time, I am very out of shape, and exercise is hard for me. my BMI is 29 and my cholesterol is high. I need to lose weight and get in shape and I’m trying not to be frustrated. Is there anything else I can do? By the way… I’ve had NO sugar at all.. not even tempted 😀
My daughter has the same problem with the thyroid, she walks 2 and 3 miles a day. She’s very careful with her diet. I have a big garden and she just love them. She doesn’t eat sugar, or very little, salt or too much grease. She eats fruits, so far has been working for her, she’s very thin!
I love Zonya because she’s soooo real!
Thanks a Broccoli Bunch Eden.
Love smoked paprika!! So good in foods!!

Congratulations 🎊 👏🏽 💐 🥳 🎊 👏🏽 ⚘️
Can you educate me on how to lowering hypertension, diabeties and cholesterol, mayuma and mass in adrenal gland i realy need help
How about Instead of putting 1/2 tsp of sugar in broccoli why not local unprocessed honey or maple syrup?
Could you tell me the skinny on oatmeal? I have heard it is unhealthy plus weight gain and others say it is very healthy for you. Would love for you to do a video dedicated to the types of oatmeal what is good and what isn't. And preparation of it. Thanks for this video.

A BMI between 25 and 18.5 is in the normal range. Your health information looks great.
What can replace cruciferous foods for those that are allergic to them or have Graves Hyperthyroidism?
When you said there are some beans are good for you, and black eyes peas are the best, how much do you have to eat at a sitting if you have to do this 3 times a week!
At least a 1/2 cup.
INFO I NEED!
Info I can TRUST!
If only the school system would teach our children this same thing maybe we might have changes in the food system!!! Nancy from nebraska
That would be nice.

I don't really eat processed foods, I love real food, yet I still need to lose weight and keep it off. Any suggestions?
Ditch the plastic cutting board to avoid getting plastic in the food.
Just started to look at your videos and would like to buy your two books. Can I get a special price or a code discount by buying the two books because I am Canadian and it’s already more expensive for me because of the exchange in money. Please help me.

When I was young I could eat anything but now in my 60 must watch what I eat or weigh comes on fast
Like beets, but I get a rash 😢
Have u ever made ur own bone broth
The problem with real food is that fruit/veg DON'T HAVE SEEDS???
I’m going to eat more real foods thanks
