Hello everyone and welcome! Those who joined Saturday's CTw/M with Tea and Karianne, speaking to the community on diet/nutrition and their favorite go-to snacks and recipes, were not disappointed! A plethora of information was provided about carb-based foods and how they break down into blood glucose (sugar alcohol) in the body, which is what this disease feeds off of. A great round of Q&A ensued, especially from our newer members, as this kind of information makes up so much of our protocol and is the key to restoring our health.
Tea and Karianne shared some of their favorite foods and recipes, as well as alternative ingredients to use so they can still enjoy some of those dishes that otherwise would not fit our dietary needs (i.e., use of almond/coconut flour for baking, such as pumpkin waffles/muffins, almond biscuits, etc.). What these ladies brought out that is so valuable to the psyche is understanding what foods we CAN enjoy, rather than focusing on the more pessimistic side of what we can't have. The ladies also provided some of her best practices in terms of managing food intake, weighing out portions, understanding how to read an ingredients label and serving sizes as it relates to amount of carbs are in food, having a list/organized way to prepare simple meals/snacks to have on hand when we're not feeling like cooking... wonderful tips that we can leverage to our advantage and not to go off the nutrition rails!
Remember folks, we have a whole section on this website dedicated to diet/nutrition, as well as a forum thread called "Delicious Ideas for your Dining enjoyment / recipes 2021-2016." So many meals and snacks that we can enjoy and should incorporate daily. Karianne recently added one of her favorite treats to that thread to have around the Holidays. Take a look, give it a try, and you too can enjoy a healthy and tasty Cranberry Sauce!
Thank you to those who joined and participated on the call. For those who missed out, you can listen to the recording through the link posted below.
Have a wonderful week! Coffee, Tea with Me - Saturday 11-13-21
