THREE THINGS TO IMPROVE YOUR NUTRITION
& BALANCE BLOOD SUGAR
1. choose proper cookware. which frying pan you use makes a huge difference! google it and research...it could be the #1 thing you do to improve your health. non-stick is out, cast iron is in....
2. remove soda & artificial sweeteners from your house right now. studies have shown artificial sweeteners can actually increase cravings, causing weight gain, abnormal pancreas functioning & insulin levels, and have been linked to brain tumors & bladder cancer. choose honey, organic pure maple syrup, monk fruit sweetener or whole earth stevia.
3. start each day with a tall glass of water and follow through with a breakfast full of protein & healthy fats. most of us are dehydrated when we wake up in the morning, and yet, we crave a cup of coffee right away "to give us caffeine & energy." hydration rules -- remember, drink half your bodyweight in fluid ounces of water each day! also, when we eat a breakfast full of starch & sugar, such as cereal, muffins or bagels...our blood sugar spikes high but then we crash halfway through the morning, making us cranky & hungry. don't be that "hangry" person at the office or on the zoom call. ditch all cereal & muffins. if you decide to eat a bagel, eat it with eggs & bacon. or better yet -- eat eggs, bacon & leftover sweet potatoes.
