I have high blood pressure and I was wondering if you can make a video about what to eat in a day to lower blood pressure and how to maintain a healthy blood pressure.
My favorite thing is you emphasizing that some sugar is just fine. You aren't demonizing sugar but making it something to be aware of and not over do! You are my favorite to listen to ❤
Oh my gosh I asked you a question on your last video and you totally answered it in this one! Yay! Thank you for all of the knowledgeable health information and trying to help us all get healthier. It's so easily to get tricked by the packaging and not realize how much extra sugar and chemicals can be in food. They put sugar in literally everything and it is quite disturbing LOL
Veggie juices are okay though! Beet & ginger & celery. Carrot & ginger is a good one. Has anyone tried the Breville juicer? I just put mine in a blender & strainer. A pain but makes me feel great
In May, I drove with my brother’s family, out of state, to attend my nephew’s college graduation. During the drive, my sister-in-law, started passing out snacks and I asked her if she had anything healthy. Her answer was “absolutely,” and then she asked if I wanted trail mix or a granola bar. The poor woman got to listen to me read the ingredients lists to her and explain why there was pretty much nothing healthy in her “healthy” options. I was shocked when I began to educate myself, initially through channels like yours, but now I read every label or opt for making my own versions of things, like you do.
Yes please make more of these kind of videos. It’s a challenge to find clean low sugar foods sometimes. I’m on the hunt for a good granola to throw in my Greek yogurt in the mornings.
It’s so easy to make a big batch of your own homemade granola which can last a couple weeks or more in the pantry! I make a couple batches of different flavours of granola at a time and add to Greek yoghurt, sprinkled over pancakes or waffles, and as cereal with milk/almond milk and berries. You’ll never go back to buying granola again after making your own!😊 There are SO much added sugars & fats in store bought granola, even in ‘healthier’ brand granolas.
Thanks for the good information. I’m literally addicted to flavored oatmeal. Going to get the plain style next time and plan Greek yogurt ( had been doing non-fat Greek vanilla). I am doing the raw nuts but I’m going to try making my own like you did and watch out more for better protein bars and unsweetened juice. I like keeping cranberry on hand for female reasons, but it’s tough because of the sugar! Thanks, you are very inspiring. You have a beautiful kitchen and I love how passionate you are about nutrition and fitness. It’s really helping me. My heaviest weight was 178 and I’m 5’6 and now I am 162 -165. I know it’s sugar holding me up from losing the rest. Im trying to drop to 150 because I read that’s a healthy weight for my height and age. Hopefully I’ll still feel healthy and happy and not tired at that weight. I’m 40. It’s hard to feel energetic and I think it probably is some of the food I’m eating. I do yoga and ballet and lots of walking but it’s hidden sugars and food holding me back. I hope you make more videos. I love them and they are super helpful. Happy Fall
I remember when Ryan had grabbed some flavored oatmeal from a known "healthy" brand. He didn't read the label because you assume, they make good stuff. Got home, we read it together and our jaws dropped at the sugar level. There are tons of great swaps though, so don't stress on it, you've got this!
What about coffee creamer? I’m currently looking for one that doesn’t have a bunch of crazy ingredients. Or how can I make my coffee taste good and not have a lot of nasty ingredients.
I use Oatly coffee creamer, so delicious. That Chabie Oat creamers are the only ones that I have like that taste good. They flavored so I am sure they probably have added sugars, but still a healthier option.
Your are probably better off with cream and a little (teaspoon or so) of sugar/brown sugar or a few drops of a flavored stevia. I haven't seen any good coffee creamer that doesn't have chemicals in it.
Cashew milk is thick like coffee creamer & tastes really good. I'm a barista so I've tested a lot of different variations. Silk makes a creamy cashew milk that you can get for just $4 at Walmart and it's only 25 calories, too! I just use cashew milk & some cinnamon in my coffee.
Hi! Yes please keep making these great videos!! I live in Canada so it’s challenging to find as many healthier options at the grocery store unless you go to a specific natural foods store, and even then to stay on a budget in a natural foods store is tough here!! But I do love how easy you make things look with just making your own healthy natural snacks and meals!! Thank you so much!! This helps a ton! 😊
Love this! Would like to see one on healthy grains. My digestion doesn't do well with brown rice. I love whole grain breads but it's hard to find them without bad sugars. What are your go to breads, tortillas, pasta etc? I try not to eat alot of them but my body and brain definitely needs it. Tried to do no carbs once and I felt terrible.
Great video! I'm confused about the protein bar portion though. When you were showing the RX bar the captions said there were too many added sugars. However, the label said 0 added sugars. Is you issue with RX bars that they are too high in natural sugars, even though they don't contain any refined added sugars? Thanks so much!
I love celery juice but never drink it because I have heard it always has to be juiced fresh or else it oxidizes and you don't get the benefits of it. What are your thoughts? It does make sense that drinking it from the store is better than nothing? It's quite the hassle to juice fresh celery juice daily
Pretty much hit the nail on the head with this video! Nice work! I will add, fruit is an amazing addition to anyone’s diet as it provides fiber, antioxidants, and raw sugar to make you feel satisfied and give you energy throughout the day! So don’t be afraid to eat fruit just because it has “sugar” in it. It’s when it comes in juice form, like Katie said, and it consists of added sugars and dozens of different fruits in portions that no human needs in one day. So happy you included that info about juices!! 🥰👏🏻
Thank you so much for bringing us these videos Katie ! This is really helpful for those of us who aren't in a position to be able to pay for nutritionists etc, I absolutely love this! Love you ❤️💕
This video was amazing! When I was working out and trying to eat healthy, all I ate was breakfast and boiled chicken, rice, and random veggies. It's been almost 5 years because of rough pregnancy and recovery, but I'm ready to start making small switches to get me started and make alternatives. My old go to workout snack was a banana and a power crunch bar. It's so hard to find a protein bar with more protein than carbs.
I ❤ videos like this! It really does help me. I am definitely trying to find good healthy choices for my children as well. Can you please do more of these videos😊
Hi hun i have hypothyroidism almost as soon as i got it and i can pin point it to just about when i got it because it was my first time on phentermine i hardly ate i cut out red meat and salt which meant lots of iodine was out of my diet i lost 25lbs in one month caught pneumonia almost died my potassium was at a 4 when at 2 your organs shut down the hospital stay healed me 3 months later i had hypothyroidism i killed my thyroid. 😢 anyhow since iv gained an insane amount of weight im trying to lose it depression is getting me but im trying your an inspiration i wanted to ask you hun have you tried fasting did it work for you? How did it go? Iv been doin it for a while i dont eat after 9(which is probably part of my problem its too late) and have a protein shake fairlife at lunch and no food inbetween. But i believe it makes me stuff my face so i think i should stop it and focus more on a real food breakfast what do you recommend? Hugs your glowing look beautiful im 40 with 3 adult kids and a 4 and 5 year old. Cant wait to see baby LBD hugs n love.
I’ve been making my own trail mix since I saw this! Unsweetened coconut, pumpkin seeds, I actually made a bunch & gave them to people as Christmas presents in a mason jar with a ribbon on it. So thank you for this!!! Using the raw nuts is the best part. I never see premade trail mix without crap in it that we don’t need
Thank you Katie! Your advice has helped me manage my fructose intolerance. Celery juice with lemon and lime has been my go to for breakfast 🥰 if my mint and lemon balm plants are growing in the summer I'll juice them in as well 👌
Thank you very much for your time and dedication you put into these videos. Thank you for empowering us! I know it is not good, but, how about when you would like to splurge a little with potatoes chips. Any brand you recommend or alternatives? Also, any alternative to French fries? Nuggets? (For teens) on the go foods, school lunch prep? Thank you. Your guidance is appreciated. 💕🌻
Indulging here and there is totally ok, I do it myself! On the regular, I personally like to keep it clean (and eat delicious foods). For chips or snacks like that, have you tried Hip Peas? Love them, kinda like a chip.
Your amazing and I appreciate you! Thanks for the info! What about Too good yogurt? And I always wonder what cereal to give my kid!!! It’s like kids jam to have cereal! Argg. Need to buy your book cuz I love new fresh healthy ideas! Thanks girl! 💜
Hi Katie! Great video about disguised healthy foods. Question...Just about every monk fruit option I see at the grocery store or health food store is a blend of monk fruit and erythritol, which apparently is a sugar alcohol. Is that a safe option or are there pure monk fruit options out there? Do you have any brand recommendations? TY!
The monk fruit we use in LSF products is all natural, that is of course my preference and what I would be looking for. That said, unless you have an aversion to a bit of sugar alch (some do) then it's likely a small amount and still better than most other sweeteners.
Please tell us you and your team are creating protein bars!!!! And I need that flannel shirt! Can you share where you got it? Thank you! You look so beautiful! You are glowing!
It's on my mind for sure, but since they are so hard to do right + taste great, will make sure to take time with it. One Protein is another deceptive example unfortunately. Yes, 1g of sugar, great. However, the ingredients are not. General rule of thumb, if the brand has flavors like "birthday cake" it's going to be really unlikely they are able to make that flavor profile w/o some not so great ingredients. I'd pass on One and go w/ GoMacro, RX or Perfect.
I don't really like protein powders and have tried tons. Still don't love protein powder but LSF protein powders are by far the best I have had. I add LSF protein powder to my pancakes and oatmeal!
I struggle with cereal the most as I LOVE it but so hard to find something that isn't full of sugar. I do try and stick with porridge, adding seeds, nuts, fruit but every so often the cereal monster rears it's head.
My kids are always asking for flavoured yogurt and I absolutely refuse! We'll mix in some berries or a clementine, or just a bit of honey if in a pinch. We have peanut and nut allergies so granola/trail mixes don't work for us.
Matcha tea from most coffee shops (starbucks) have tons of sugar. So sad such a yummy tea has to be drenched in sugar. Also it's a pre- mix so can't ask to leave it out 🤣
I'm so annoyed with protein. Some people say we get to much, some to little. Some say it causes inflammation and slows digestion, some say it repairs digestive tract. Some say animal protein is more bioavailable, some say plants. 😮💨😭 I don't eat a ton of meat because it doesn't always digest well for me. I work out for health and aesthetic, I don't want to be skinny I want to be "everyday" strong... not body builder strong (I'm currently pregnant also.) Obviously the standard American diet doesn't work because most people are overweight/ obese. Can you go into detail about protein. I'm not sure why there is such contradiction when it comes to "diets" no wonder everyone is lost lol
Protein is absolutely key to a balanced healthy diet. Totally get it on the animal protein. That’s part of why I made the LSF Plant Protein. It’s a complete protein blend using pea and brown rice, having the same impact as whey. Highly suggest!
If I eat junk food I try to limit once a week I mostly eat turkey sausage steak a burger lots of frozen veggies I’m thinking of buying your protein powders I try not to eats lots of red meat I mostly stick to milk water zero sugar Gatorade I don’t buy those juices sodas with high sugars Raisin Bran is my favorite it’s definitely hard to stay away from it’s probably not possible but wouldn’t mind a healthy grocery store I’m losing weight your videos are always helpful enjoyable give us more swaps and smoothies videos
I've never had them, but those are definitely really clean. I'd love to see higher protein, but not bad. Also would be super easy to make those at home for sure!
It's a no brainer. ALWAYS look at the nutritional info label. If it doesn't have one, don't buy it. Also, I would avoid any kind of veggie drink or even homemade veggie smoothie. Make a nice healthy green salad instead. I mean, I would way rather eat my calories than drink them! As far as cereal, try Trader Joes "High Fiber cereal."
Monk fruit sweetener isn’t as healthy as you say it is “healthy sugar” it’s about 90% erythritol 10% actual monk fruit and erythritol is a man made sugar 🤮
I'm not sure what monk fruit sweetener you've had, but most often it is all natural, doesn't raise your blood sugar levels and is easily the best option out there IMO. When it comes to adding sweetener, it doesn't get better than Monk Fruit. For instance, the monk fruit we use in LSF products is 100% natural, there is no erythritol. That is more common than not in any products I've used.
If you go to the baking section of a local grocery store you can’t find monkfruit sweetener without erythritol because it’s mixed together to make the highly expensive ingredient go further and look more like table sugar They do make monkfruit without erythritol, and I hope that’s what’s in your LSF products!! I did not know anything about it until I received my bachelors in culinary nutrition You have such a platform and I just wanted to inform you so you can inform others 💗😊
Hi Katie. Lily's chocolate chips contain erythritol. That's an alcohol sugar and it's the first ingredient. Just wanted to state this in the comments because people with gut issues might find themselves running to the toilet by consuming these alcohol sugars.
What other foods are you unsure of?
Coffee creamer
Curious, do you try to avoid gluten in mostly everything you buy? I’m wondering if it’s a cause of bloating and should be avoided
I have high blood pressure and I was wondering if you can make a video about what to eat in a day to lower blood pressure and how to maintain a healthy blood pressure.
What about the yogurt brand Two Good ?
Deserts
My favorite thing is you emphasizing that some sugar is just fine. You aren't demonizing sugar but making it something to be aware of and not over do! You are my favorite to listen to ❤
Absolutely!

You should have brought your own healthy snacks if you’re so health conscious.

Def more coming!
It’s so easy to make a big batch of your own homemade granola which can last a couple weeks or more in the pantry!

You’ll never go back to buying granola again after making your own!😊 There are SO much added sugars & fats in store bought granola, even in ‘healthier’ brand granolas.
I also do have my favorite granola recipe in my guiltless nutrition recipe ebook too!

So happy to hear that Cindy! Congrats on your new little one coming :)

Been trying to utilize your app but it’s not working.
Oh no! Send our team an email at support@lovesweatfitness.com and we can help out!
I’m waiting for your protein bar to hit the scene Katie!! Thoughts on the brand One Protein bar?
It's on my mind for sure, but since they are so hard to do right + taste great, will make sure to take time with it. One Protein is another deceptive example unfortunately. Yes, 1g of sugar, great. However, the ingredients are not. General rule of thumb, if the brand has flavors like "birthday cake" it's going to be really unlikely they are able to make that flavor profile w/o some not so great ingredients. I'd pass on One and go w/ GoMacro, RX or Perfect.
This was very motivational. Homeade granola is another option for cereal. It's really easy to make.
Definitely! Love that as a cereal sub.
I would love to see a video about what you buy at Costco! 😊
Great idea!!
I know this video's old but whats wrong with quest bars on occasion?
What is the specific benefit of drinking celery juice? Does it help with digestion?
Yes and has so many more benefits. It reduces inflammation and boosts hydration!
Keto Krisp protein bars are great. But not sure about the sunflower lecithin..
I don't really like protein powders and have tried tons. Still don't love protein powder but LSF protein powders are by far the best I have had. I add LSF protein powder to my pancakes and oatmeal!
That makes me so happy to hear it’s the best you’ve tried! 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you for this video it's really helpful
The Catalina crunch cookies are so good!
I struggle with cereal the most as I LOVE it but so hard to find something that isn't full of sugar. I do try and stick with porridge, adding seeds, nuts, fruit but every so often the cereal monster rears it's head.
I hear you on that! Check out some of the alternatives I mentioned, see what you think :)
My kids are always asking for flavoured yogurt and I absolutely refuse! We'll mix in some berries or a clementine, or just a bit of honey if in a pinch. We have peanut and nut allergies so granola/trail mixes don't work for us.
Matcha tea from most coffee shops (starbucks) have tons of sugar. So sad such a yummy tea has to be drenched in sugar. Also it's a pre- mix so can't ask to leave it out 🤣
Thank you for this 😁👍🏾.
Great video thank you!
The purely Elizabeth granola? What are your thoughts/opinion?
It's good, can be a bit higher in sugar than I'd like (which is why I'll make my own more often), but better than most!
apple vinegar pregnancy safety?
Yes but I recommend you check with your doctor because everyone has a different journey!
What about if you have certain foods in moderation like dry fruit or trails mix?
Of course! I love to indulge when I feel like it. I keep myself in my routine/on track 90-95% of the time.
Please do more videos like this!!

The Kirkland signature protein bars have good macros. Sweetened with Stevia.
Love to see more videos like this.
Is wild game meat healthy when trying to lose weight?
What do you think about B.T.R. Bars? They seem like they’d be a good one.
I've never had them, but those are definitely really clean. I'd love to see higher protein, but not bad. Also would be super easy to make those at home for sure!
amazing
I need more videos like this!
Trail mix was a rough one to realize 😭😂
COMPLETELY!
Dang I just bought Rx bars 😅 good to know though!
Bars are so challenging, Rx does it better than many, same w/ GoMarco...I just wouldn't be eating them daily.
I feel personally attacked😂😂I eat a few of these.
Haha I feel you on that :)
Hi Love Sweat Fitness, I am very happy with all of your videos, because all of your videos are very useful for me, thank you ❤❤
It's a no brainer. ALWAYS look at the nutritional info label. If it doesn't have one, don't buy it. Also, I would avoid any kind of veggie drink or even homemade veggie smoothie.

I enjoy Aloha bars
The problem is...they have a label!!!
I know what you mean, but for 99.9% of people, you’re going to have some foods with a label. Plenty that are still super clean with one ☺️
You should sell your own LSF protein bars/balls. 😋
That would be pretty great.... :)

Monk fruit sweetener isn’t as healthy as you say it is “healthy sugar” it’s about 90% erythritol 10% actual monk fruit and erythritol is a man made sugar 🤮
I'm not sure what monk fruit sweetener you've had, but most often it is all natural, doesn't raise your blood sugar levels and is easily the best option out there IMO. When it comes to adding sweetener, it doesn't get better than Monk Fruit. For instance, the monk fruit we use in LSF products is 100% natural, there is no erythritol. That is more common than not in any products I've used.
If you go to the baking section of a local grocery store you can’t find monkfruit sweetener without erythritol because it’s mixed together to make the highly expensive ingredient go further and look more like table sugar
They do make monkfruit without erythritol, and I hope that’s what’s in your LSF products!!
I did not know anything about it until I received my bachelors in culinary nutrition
You have such a platform and I just wanted to inform you so you can inform others 💗😊

Yes more videos on foods to eat that ARE actually gealthy
Hi Katie. Lily's chocolate chips contain erythritol. That's an alcohol sugar and it's the first ingredient. Just wanted to state this in the comments because people with gut issues might find themselves running to the toilet by consuming these alcohol sugars.
Nothing is going to be perfect for everyone :) If I listed out every disclosure for every condition, it would make for a pretty rough video.
