#OptimalU-Week 19 Recap
May 13, 2014
Hi Everyone!
I hope your week has started in the right direction, and that you have been able to incorporate some of the new breakfast and lunch principles I have suggested, and also noticed the difference between an organic/conventional/ and GMO PLU number (from last week) when you walked throughout your grocery store. Here are the previous week’s selection of photos and videos!
Day 1: Our May focus has been on breakfast and lunch meal planning, and three foods that I always recommend that you eat daily are Dr. Bob’s ABC’s, which is my #OptimalU on page 55 that says: An apple for breakfast, beets for lunch, and carrots for supper.
Day 2: Do you suffer from chronic sinus pain? Try eating cashew or almond butter.
Day 3: Eat fruit alone in the morning. I have seen that if you eat fruit after a meal, it results in delayed digestion.
Day 4, 5: Off
Day 6: Your goal is to have a score of five and focus on low or mid-glycemic food(s). Let me know what score you got!
Day 7: Eat more beans. They have soluble fiber, which lowers cholesterol, and folate, which can lower blood levels of homocysteine, an amino acid that promotes heart disease. One of my favorite uses, is to make homemade hummus. The base is garbanzo beans, tahini, and olive oil. After that you can add a variety of spices like garlic and turmeric.
