    📲 Our Pick Up Limes app is finally here (1-week free trial!): bit.ly/PUL_app 🎉
    👀Why can frozen berries sometimes be more nutritious than fresh berries? Many fresh fruits, like berries, and some vegetables too, are picked before they are ripe. This allows them time to fully ripen during transportation, but it means they had less time to obtain and develop a full range of vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants with help from the soil. Berries destined to be frozen, on the other hand, are picked at peak ripeness, when they’re most nutritious. Both fresh and frozen berries are wonderfully nutritious, and incredibly antioxidant rich; include these little gems in your meals and snacks whenever possible :)

      Hi Sadia, do you have any recommendations for berries substitutes? Frozen berries are really expensive here in Indonesia. :( Same thing goes with almonds, cashews...but we have lots of cheap tempeh and tofu :)

    My first time seeing you. I subscribed. I live in rural Peru on a small (1/8 acre) organic farm. i have chickens, turkeys, cornish game hens, couy, rabbits, alpacas, and donkeys. %z years ago i only ate onions LOL. Now I have 175 varieties of fruits, veggies , herbs and flowers. My tiny farm supports 5 families plus many of the old and widowed in the high mountain communities. Thank you for what you do It is very inspiring

  • @musicismylove92
    @musicismylove92 5 років тому +927

    Definitely some new ones! Had to write these down for quick future reference :)
    1. You Eat/Drink What You See
    2. Store Veggies in Glass Jars with Water to keep them Fresher Longer
    3. Add Seeds into Meals for extra nutrients (nut butters, smoothies, parfaits)
    4. Try frozen zucchini (creaminess) and white beans (fiber/minerals) in smoothies
    5. Sneak berries in where you can (tons of antioxidants!)
    6. Herbs and spices also have lots of antioxidants!!
    7. Freeze herbs in ice cube trays to add to smoothies (maintains their flavor/nutrients)
    8. You can hide spinach in cooked meals since they cook down a lot in volume
    9. Snack arsenal = 3 healthy snack ideas that you can make in under 2 minutes, and always have the ingredients on hand
    10. Meal plan! Decreases waste, and even if you don't stick to it 100% of the time, will often lead to healthier choices (PDF in description)
    11. Especially during the holidays, make something healthier and filling to contribute to all the parties!

When in reality they share only 3 cliche tips in a 20-30 minute video. You were just throwing great ideas after great ideas that I never thought of, with absolute no nonsense talking!! I really appreciated this, what an amazing video 🥰 straight to the point

      Feeling the same way. Want to just get more healthy, and we are what we eat... and drink. My biggest problem is forgetting to drink water. Or anything. I know it's an easy thing for most people. I just really can't remember to do it. Almost causes anxiety to drink things unless it's just room temp Water ... but keeping it near me, esp with a straw helps. Hope you stuck with it.

    • @marianmilushev6406
      @marianmilushev6406 4 роки тому +1

      These are two very clever tricks to use in order to be albe to keep on eating healthy. Water will help you reduce your appetite. Today appetite often is not coming from the need. You can see that from this post: www.healthyguidetoday.com/2020/02/healthy-foods-to-suppress-appetite-and.html?m=1.
      The other is great too. Not having anything unhealthy to eat will help a lot since you will lose the quick access to them. But why not remove them from your home completly? Yes your family may not agree, but it is better for them too. After all healthy eating is not only related to your weight. Even if the person is skinny, he can have other problems like high cholesterol and etc...
      Sticking to healthy eating is the big problem really. Jung foods are so much tasty, easy and addictive. But there are still more tips you can use to overcome this. More about them you can find. www.healthyguidetoday.com/2020/02/healthy-tips-to-keep-on-with-your-diet.html?m=1

Everyone is always saying, "You can't eat this or that, it's bad for you." What I love so much about all your tips is that you focus on the joy that can come from eating nutritious and nourishing foods.

      @nauduliuke 4 роки тому +20

      i find it the most helpful to just do trial and error with logging everything you eat into cronometer.com. you begin to see what nutrients you lack most often and then you can google foods that are high in those nutrients (theres also some info on the app itself) and start adding them to your meals in various ways until u find what works for you. you could do it for a couple days to get a basic sense of what you're eating if counting calories is too triggering, or you could log your food for a couple months or until you have understanding what you should be eating to easily meet all your rdas and have formed healthy habits that help you ensure proper nutrition everyday. at least that works for me currently, ive started logging my meals couple weeks ago and i think ive learned quite a few things (also with the help of googling questions that might arise along the way for me). i understand it might not be the best way to go for people that have fought eating disorders, so a video would be really nice as well

Symptoms of your body with lack of this mineral::: hairfall, white grey hair, getting dizzy, shortness of breath, too much heart beating fast, chest pains (especially for women). GOAT/ sheep/ beef/lamb liver is best as eating chicken Liver can lead to fibroids/ rasooli in tummy.
      Liver is best eaten little bit left kuchee/raw. As over cooking leads to vitamins gone. If you are eating LIVER best eaten am/ afternoon NOT night time as it takes many hours to digest. Avoid laying down sleeping after eating as not good for heart. Please eat VITAMIN C rich foods like carrots,mango, tomato,bell peppers, orange/ lemon, pomegranate as Vitamin C best to eat with iron foods. And NEVER EAT WITH parata, milk, yogurt, doughnut, cake, bread, cheese, lussi, tea, egg, wheat, bread, crisps chips( urdu) buns, because these STOP body from making IRON from liver-
      Last but not least important information. lack of iron is also caused by grieving over death of family, when you over think and worry too much then it interferes with stomach so absorption from foods is not working.
      Lots of lack in FERRITIN and Iron is caused by accident causing bloodloss, menses/ periods, miscarriage, abortion ( apologise for this but it's important).

    I do not know if you will see this still, but since now I know that you are a certified nutritionist, I wanted to ask you if you can make a video about what a person with immune disease and hypothyroidism and digestion issues can eat? Or Simply do a video about how to gain weight if you have digestion issues! I really hope you see this cause *there is no video out there on UA-cam which talks about gaining weight with an autoimmune disease and digestion issues.* Many people are seeking this because there are so many people who want to gain weight but cannot due to chronic illness. Every youtuber just stresses about weight loss but not weight gain. I will be very grateful to you if you make a video about this.

      If I may suggest a book or two that have changed my life in the last few months. I've had severe digestive issues in the last year and a half. I am not joking with the following statement, there were many times where all I wanted was cease to exist, the pain I was experiencing on a daily basis was unbearable, I didn't know what to eat anymore, until I read Feel Good Naked by Wendy Felt, which I believe her book you can get it for free if you go to her website www.feelgoodnakedagain.com or find her on Facebook and ask her if she has a free copy for you, tell her I referred you to her. In her book she mentions a book that I read many years ago that saved me from surgery it's called The Liver and Gallbladder Miracle cleanse by Andrea's Moritz, it's a very inexpensive book. Last year I saw there's a revised version but I haven't bought it yet. I'm just reading again the one I already have. But find Andreas Moritz on UA-cam, he has amazing videos, not recipes per say, but what you'll discover that between books, videos and websites you'll see a tremendous change. Sending you love, light, and healing.
