Yay! This is the channel that made me a fan to begin with. Love the warmth and beauty of watching your family’s life in tropical Maui. ❤️. Please keep posting here!
I’ve been watching you guys since Elvis was little and I’m finally having my first baby! I’m just vegetarian and I live in Indiana but I loooove your content and it’s so inspiring. I love you guys!!!
Ellen you inspire me so much and you have for years. I’m trying my best to eat more plants like you. I’m pregnant with my second baby. Please never leave UA-cam, we need more people like you here! Sending you all my love from Australia! Xx
Same, i have to say though, these videos do inspire me to be less meat and animal-product-centered. I am a carb-conscious person. Seeing these lovely salads with tahini, avocado, and sauerkraut really does motivate me. I make my own kraut all the time!
I love watching your videos! I'm currently 14 weeks with my first and found this most beneficial. I'm one of the women who has suffered with Nausea, morning sickness and food aversions...cannot drink cordial juice anymore, onions are a no go along with a few other things. I am going to give your ice cream recipe a try (I have a real thing for ice and ice cream!). Also your video has made me think about what i may be/am lacking, so thank you, because I can now improve...it's never to late to change habits.
The healthiest I ever was, was when I was vegan on Maui. Sunshine and nutrient dense food is a spectacular combo. With so much activity it actually caused me to eat less as well but I never lacked energy. I was just..lighter.
I tried my first papaya this weekend because of you. It was delicious. I don't know where I've been the last 29 years but clearly I've been living under a rock LOL.
@@nathaliecabrera8859 where do you live? I hate papaya too but once I went to the canary island and suddenly loved it. So I think it definitely depends where you get it from
I found your page years ago when I went vegan and was having my first vegan pregnancy, and I’ve followed along ever since. I’m so grateful I found your channel 🧡much love and blessings to you siStar and your beautiful family 🧡🌅
I am not a vegan, but I do enjoy your videos!! My husband and I suffered our first miscarriage two years ago and now are on our TTC journey again with the help of an IVF clinic. I love fruits and veggies so any information I can grab is amazing!!
Hey Ellen, I'm pregnant as well (think we might be quite around the same week) and I made your ICE CREAM the other day. I added a tbsp of cinnamon as well and it's amazing! Me and my Partner are obsessed! Thank you SO much for the recipe and all the other great food ideas I got from you over the years!! All the best to you and love from Germany ❤
I haven’t tried Ellen’s coconut milk ice cream, but I absolutely love banana nice cream. My favourite is to top it with maple syrup and pecans; it tastes like butter pecan ice cream.
I so appreciate your videos! I am five months pregnant and I am always praying my baby girl doesn't have an adhd tendencies like me. I also got sick at 19 with hyperthyroidism. Now, that I am 30 and pregnant, my midwife did tell me to take this medication because now it's too low. It hasn't bothered me for years. I love meat but I also love carrots, strawberries, watermelon, pickles and plums. I really enjoy spinach and kale but I definitely need to cook more and learn more healthy recipes. God bless you for sharing! My sister has been vegan for about two years but most of her food was not appealing to me and her fridge always smelled terrible in my opinion. I know fresh means stronger odors but I always wondered if it was a way around it. LOL.
Oh man, how I MISSED your videos. This was soooo informative, even when not pregnant. I miss your family videos, they always fill me with such joy and love for kind humans… (which we could use now) 🧡
Hi Ellen, thanks for another beautiful video. I just got your 3 recipe books today and am so thrilled. They are just beautiful and it is so obvious that you really put your heart and soul into them.
Amazing videos! Im 26 weeks pregnant for the very first time and been watching you on and off since mango island mama days and always watched your pregnancys & birth videos with great pleasure. i can’t believe im actually pregnant this time watching! Love a fellow vegan of 16 years xx
I've never had fresh coconut water, they are not native where I live but I buy it from the store and oohhh wow, literally ignites my soul with how hydrating and thirst quenching it feels. it's delicious
Fun fact: Paprika (bell pepper / capsicum / whatever you call it), especially red ones, are even richer in Vitamin C than most citrus fruit, they actually contain about twice as much Vitamin C as oranges and lemons. If you don't have access to oranges/lemons, don't like them or just have an intolerance you can easily omit them by eating red paprika
Does it still keep the vitamin C content if you dehydrate them in a dehydrator? (in the UK during high summer these are actually quite affordable, but more prohibitive at other times of year). Convenience factor also.
Hi Ellen I’m not pregnant but I appreciate your content so much! And I would love it if you gave us an insight in how it is that you get vitamin D. It would mean the world! Thank you! 💛
Ellen I’m so happy to see a video from you this morning❤️ I’ve been really missing seeing them. You always leave me with such a good vibe feeling. I love your podcast too but can we have both xxx
Good to see you Glowing!!!! You are an inspiration on plant based foods. I enjoy ur recipes you share! Im freezing coconut milk into ice cubes to make ice cream for my Grand daughters!! Thank you for all great ideas!!!🎈
I love your UA-cam. I wish I could go vegan but it’s so hard to stay away from the recipes and meats I’m so use to eating. Ik the challenge it more mental but looking at your UA-cam gives me more and more hope to reach that goal one day.
I started making big batches of ginger tea to keep in the fridge and it has cleared up all breast pain and it makes it so much faster to go to the "bathroom" whereas before I was having to sit and wait for a while which was causing issues.
You just have amazing energy so you must be doing something right. I am struggling right now with lots of food allergies and not knowing what I can even eat. I know I will get to a healthy place again where I can eat all the amazing life giving foods that you recommend here.
Oh sweetie I know... I lived in a similar place and now I live in Switzerland ... I’m in the mountains but it’s nit the same, long cold rigid winters... I hope you can realize your dreams,
vegan pregnancy, children, and the lifestyle is general is just so much healthier. i remember going to a doctors appointment with my sister when she was pregnant and just hearing all of the non-vegan foods she had to cut out in risk of harming her baby… while with a vegan diet you can eat so much nutritious, delicious food and not have to worry.
As always your videos never disappoint. Personally my body does really well with higher amounts of cooked veggies and low fiber, low fruit, low sugar, and average protein. I love seeing how other people eat and what type of diet they thrive on. Congrats on baby #5.
What would you recommend for energy?? I’m trying to cut the coffee, but being pregnant with my third vegan baby has made me a bit tired this time around.. I control my intake to a small cup a day but I would love a recommendation for something more nourishing.
I absolutely LOVE this video!!! Thank you so much!! Please share more Pregnant Vegan food diaries or videos to share some great recipes to nourish momma and baby
Ellen I'd like you to know that you have also young audience just like me! I'm 22 and I follow some of your vegan delicious recipes even though I'm not a vegan myself! Also you inspire me in so many ways and I'm thankful for that ❤
I'm so in love with your channel and the message you are putting out there for healthy food and healthy pregnancy. All women should be eating this way naturally especially during pregnancy. I will include men in this too to eat healthy as well. New sub here!
Ellen, thank you so much for your videos. Because of you I had a wonderful homebirth and went vegan two years ago. At the moment I am really struggling with my health. Please pray for us we stay vegan, but get healthier. I will be missing you when youtube gets blocked in Russia (
I follow a personalized menu made by a dietician. Everyone has different needs based on lifestyle, weight, quality of sleep, food allergies. A dietician will also measure the perfect portion for you, for produce like lentils, tofu. Also for pumpkin seeds and chia seeds. It changed my life!
I have 7 year old boy 6 year old boy 4 year old girl and a 17 month old boy and currently pregnant with a boy...having kids and giving birth all of it is so beautiful props to you for being so healthy and natural love it...goals
I have a question. I bought a juicer to make green juice into individual glass bottles. Is it okay to drink those during the week? Will the green juice go bad? I just like making it in bulk and enjoying it throughout the week. Love your videos!!
I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now back when you had one baby. I finally created a gmail and now I’m able to subscribe! I love that we are pregnant at the same time.☺️
Congratulations and I love to see all colorful foods you eat and your beautiful family. What supplements do you take specially while breastfeeding as a vegan please and thank you!!
I love your videos Ellen and to see you lifestyle, just wanted to say: 1. Not everybody will have the money or access to all these kinds of foods 2. Somebody could follow all these tips, but still be experiencing health issues. Health issues can be out of our control sometimes, and I just hope that people don't feel guilty when they are not able to do all these things,or even when they do and are still facing health issues! I just hope they won't feel they are doing something wrong or are not doing enough!
Money isn’t a issue depending on where u live ! If u have noticed Ellen at the start of her channel ate the same but was on a minimum wage with her husband !! They just live in Hawaii so fruits r fairly cheap
I’m on my second vegan pregnancy and this time ive been finding a lot of inspo in your recipes, posts and cookbooks. And i feel SOOO good. Minus weeks 8-12 where i was nauseous lol but since then, ive been focusing on healthy whole food plant based and it’s made a world of difference. I definitely ate a lot more junky vegan last time around. Thank you for this content!
Wow, I came across your videos. Thank you, just also to say how great God is, He has me eating a certain way and craving certain foods for the pass 3 or so months. I did not know I was pregnant until this past 1 1/2 weeks. ( I thought I was going through perimenopause) I looked back and everything you said in the 1st trimester, I was eating and other foods I have been eating on a regular basics. It was funny, that I don't crave or eat sauerkraut, and had bought some 3 weeks ago and this week I crave sour dough, never eat it. HMMMM, He (the Lord) told me, to take it easy a few months back, now I know why, I did a lot of really physical work before, took the time off to relax. Amazing, everything falling into place for me, It just more and more confirmation, beautiful. Congratulation on your 5th, Beautiful family, Thank you for your videos -Blessings to you and your family
I agree that fresh Fruit and veg are the best and we all should eat more. A concern I habe however is the pesticide used to grow them even if they are organic. As you have your own garden you can decide that do use as fertilizer and pesticides etc. However my parents run a blood and urine test (and they swear on organic biological fruit and veg) and they could find Glyphosat in their bodies ( and we live in central europe where usually food is regulated more strict than in the usa).
This is beautiful. Is it even possible to be healthy in Europe/Germany or in other similar states?! Our food is lacking almost all nutrients! I'm so sick after one mostly vegan pregnancy and nursing my boy for 1 year. I'm just eating pricey organic foods, much of them raw. I don't think it is possible to be really healthy here. Especially in the city. Everything here is just making you and your baby sick. You are really lucky to live in Hawaii!!! Wish you all the best for your next child. I hope one day I can get healthy again and get another baby. ❤️❤️❤️
Such great tips!! Thank you. Not even pregnant...but just LOVE everything! P.S. We love your granola at our house too. I get requests for it from my husband. :)
Can I please ask if coconut milk (canned) is actually healthy? Since I thought it’s super high in saturated fat? Would really appreciate your insight 😊
I am not pregnant but since I love your videos so much, and I love being educated I had to watch! Been a follower for many years now. I love your channel! Thank you for helping others learn about healthy living!
Thank you so much for this INCREDIBLE information Ellen! I really appreciate it. I’m not sure if you’ll respond to this or you’ve spoken about this before but do you take prenatal vitamins? And if so, which ones do you take/recommend? Thanks again love 💕
Hi Kiana. If you haven’t heard of Ritual check them out. I did a lot of research for a vegan prenatal and that became my favorite and I’ve been taking it for a while now. There are so many options. This is just one of them.
@@stellaelise1 thank you so much! Coincidentally I started taking Ritual multivitamins about a month ago and wondered about their prenatals so this is wonderful to hear 💗
She made a video about it when she was pregnant with her last babes, she takes several different vitamins but the brand was garden of life The video was a vlog when she came to California and visited her friend Alicia silverstone
I understand how all these foods are extremely rich especially when you get them locally grown and organic. But I wonder, how does the nutrition look in these foods, when we/I buy them from the supermarket, where they might even be shipped from other countries and sometimes not even available organic. Would love to hear if there is much difference there ☺️✨
I’m not vegan but i do try to have vegan/vegetarian days to at least lower my animal product consumption (i just really struggle with my energy big time with a completely vegan diet unfortunately) but i love watching your videos for suggestions on healthy options!
Really? My energy has improved since going vegan yeeeaaars ago! It’s important to keep your iron and vitamin B and D levels in order though as that can leave you feel drained. We don’t need a few perfect vegans, we need tons of imperfect vegans! ☺️ 🌱 ☮️
Hey Ellen I had a quick question so I was going to get dulse it’s the exact same bag u showed in this video but on the bottom of the bag is says warning consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead. Is this true?
I just found out I’m pregnant & decided to do water birth & that’s how I discovered your channel I love it 😅i need recipe books because I’ve been wanting to go fully plant based for years & u just motivate me to pursue it now especially that I’ve just found out I’m expecting
Wow. Normally id be the type of person to misjudge and ask how is this possible ? But your children and you are living proof that plant based diets are great. Love this, God bless. I learned something new today!
@@maztergee Yes... mother's milk is high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which is only found in animal foods because guess what, humans are animals! Vegans don't eat animal food so their milk is not nutritious enough to sustain life. This is the same reason why women miss periods and become infertile.
I am allergic to coconut and I feel that Every healthy meal nowadays adds this in the recipe, do you have any suggestions as to substitutions? I am always afraid that it will alter the taste of the recipe and then it won't be as good 😔 Thanks for your help ♥️ And I Love You, Your Family and the Amazing Content you impart with us 🙏🏻
hey, maybe cashew cream (mixing cashews and some water) or plantbased plantmilk maybe? if its role is thickening I would use potatoes/rice (I blend these to thicken soups) or starch or flour. in sweet recipes I would try using plantbased yoghurts. I know it doesnt work for every recipe but maybe for some. hope u find this helpful :)
Congratulations on your 5th pregnancy! I’m new to your channel recently subscribed and I look forward to follow you along this journey specially since I my self just found out I’m pregnant with our 6th baby 🤗😳😬🤯 😁 I find myself experiencing food aversion. Which I had no idea what it was until recently, I find myself being hungry all the time but nothing seems appealing to me everything is just 🤢 specially meats and poultry. This pregnancy is really a WHOLE new experience to me compared to how easy going all 5 past pregnancies have been for me with my boy’s (the reason I firmly believe it’s finally a girl this time 🤞🏽☺️) so I found my self frustrated and still hungry last night after not enjoying dinner asking my spirt guide Raul 😇 to Please Please Please guide me to any and all UA-cam videos that can help me inform, learn and over all just help me with this food aversion of mine and how to manage it and just help me find the help I am looking for and really need and well here I am I have been watching a lot of your videos this morning and every food you’ve mentioned so far just sounds like it’s exactly what I need right now! Like i truly feel like I can tolerate it and feel good about eating “light” if I may say so with out the concern of not eating meats and poultry like I used to and feel like I am not eating appropriately… hope that made sense any how I look forward to your videos. I truly believe I am here for a reason and you have some how been put in my feed to help me with my food aversion and intrest in eating healthier this time around. Thanks in advance
Please keep uploading on his channel I feel like this channel is becoming a back burner I totally support your podcast but I also love this channel and love to see the family
yes! I love this channel! 💚
Yess i agree♡
Yes pls don’t stop making daily vlogs. Love them so much ❤️❤️❤️
Yay! This is the channel that made me a fan to begin with. Love the warmth and beauty of watching your family’s life in tropical Maui. ❤️. Please keep posting here!

I’ve been watching you guys since Elvis was little and I’m finally having my first baby! I’m just vegetarian and I live in Indiana but I loooove your content and it’s so inspiring. I love you guys!!!
Being vegetarian is amazing! No "just" about it!
Ellen you inspire me so much and you have for years. I’m trying my best to eat more plants like you. I’m pregnant with my second baby. Please never leave UA-cam, we need more people like you here! Sending you all my love from Australia! Xx
I’m not vegan, I’m not pregnant but I enjoy your videos so much! Thank you for the awesome tips 💗
Same😊
Same, i have to say though, these videos do inspire me to be less meat and animal-product-centered. I am a carb-conscious person. Seeing these lovely salads with tahini, avocado, and sauerkraut really does motivate me. I make my own kraut all the time!
If your skin is an indicator of health, you are so, so healthy!! You are glowing!!
I love watching your videos! I'm currently 14 weeks with my first and found this most beneficial.
I'm one of the women who has suffered with Nausea, morning sickness and food aversions...cannot drink cordial juice anymore, onions are a no go along with a few other things.
I am going to give your ice cream recipe a try (I have a real thing for ice and ice cream!). Also your video has made me think about what i may be/am lacking, so thank you, because I can now improve...it's never to late to change habits.
The healthiest I ever was, was when I was vegan on Maui. Sunshine and nutrient dense food is a spectacular combo. With so much activity it actually caused me to eat less as well but I never lacked energy. I was just..lighter.
It is so hard for me to sustain veganiism and I’m so jealous when people can grow their food in their backyard.
I tried my first papaya this weekend because of you. It was delicious. I don't know where I've been the last 29 years but clearly I've been living under a rock LOL.
@Denise Huang it definitely is! I put a little tajin on mine and it was amazing.
Oh man! It looks so good but I just can’t get into it… I keep trying 😩
@@nathaliecabrera8859 where do you live? I hate papaya too but once I went to the canary island and suddenly loved it. So I think it definitely depends where you get it from
@@nathaliecabrera8859 try adding lime, it completely changes it! 💚

I haven’t tried Ellen’s coconut milk ice cream, but I absolutely love banana nice cream. My favourite is to top it with maple syrup and pecans; it tastes like butter pecan ice cream.
Hey, I‘m german too! 😊👍
Do you have the recipe for the ice cream?
@@VALINTINE2007 She said it in the video or do you mean banana kice cream? Ellen also has an older video about it!
@@SurfergirlKH She listed the ingredients but not the measurements.

Another fun fact about avocados is that they resemble a baby in the womb and also takes about 9 months to grow. Great for pregnancies!
good to know!

I've never had fresh coconut water, they are not native where I live but I buy it from the store and oohhh wow, literally ignites my soul with how hydrating and thirst quenching it feels. it's delicious
I love making a spring mix salad with roasted pine nuts, chilled quinoa, sunsweet yellow tomatoes , feta, and the white balsamic dressing
YES to the chilled water thing! I’ve found this too. It’s bizarre but I find water just has to be chilled during pregnancy! Glad I’m not the only one.
If you're like me living in Europe or other parts of the world where you don't have access to locally grown quinoa then millet is a great alternative!
Fun fact: Paprika (bell pepper / capsicum / whatever you call it), especially red ones, are even richer in Vitamin C than most citrus fruit, they actually contain about twice as much Vitamin C as oranges and lemons.

Can you make a video on what oils and lotions you put on your stomach to prevent stretch marks!!??💕💕 loveeee you and your videos

Love your cook books. Wonderful reminder on eating healthy even when not pregnant.
I am 100% agree with you!
Fresh fruit & fresh green are must for pregnancy 🙌❤️ thank you for your video!! Very helpful
Please make a pregnancy cook book for your pregnancy faves/pregnancy nutrition tips (for those who can't buy whole pregnancy course!) 🤍
Can you please make a video on how you keep your body in shape postpartum? Like, how you avoid stretch marks, pelvic strength after birth, etc.
Your kids are so lucky to be growing up in Hawaii by the beach. I grew up in a huge city it sucks 😭
Oh sweetie I know... I lived in a similar place and now I live in Switzerland ... I’m in the mountains but it’s nit the same, long cold rigid winters... I hope you can realize your dreams,
Whose been here since the raw days?! 🙋♀️ cooked or raw as long as it’s vegan I’ll be watching
Thank you, Ellen! Please, talk more about hair - yours is amazing!
vegan pregnancy, children, and the lifestyle is general is just so much healthier. i remember going to a doctors appointment with my sister when she was pregnant and just hearing all of the non-vegan foods she had to cut out in risk of harming her baby… while with a vegan diet you can eat so much nutritious, delicious food and not have to worry.
We made your icecream omg it was amazing!! Lots of love from the Netherlands ♡♡
I love how Ellen emphasizes the difference and importance between fresh fruits and processed sugars 🤗
Love this channel so much 🥰🥰🙌
Fresh banana mashed up frozen is yummy ice cream, I like it with flaxseed.

As you have your own garden you can decide that do use as fertilizer and pesticides etc. However my parents run a blood and urine test (and they swear on organic biological fruit and veg) and they could find Glyphosat in their bodies ( and we live in central europe where usually food is regulated more strict than in the usa).
You can't be obsessive about it. Eating plant-based is always better than eating dead flesh. 🤮
This is such a wonderful video ! So full of great information 🥰 thank you ! Will definitely try the the ice cream
This is beautiful. Is it even possible to be healthy in Europe/Germany or in other similar states?! Our food is lacking almost all nutrients! I'm so sick after one mostly vegan pregnancy and nursing my boy for 1 year. I'm just eating pricey organic foods, much of them raw. I don't think it is possible to be really healthy here. Especially in the city. Everything here is just making you and your baby sick. You are really lucky to live in Hawaii!!! Wish you all the best for your next child. I hope one day I can get healthy again and get another baby. ❤️❤️❤️
Seen I watched you I see food more delicious and in the process to eat more healthy food. Always great videos
Are you planning an ebook bundle any time soon?
Enjoyed this video! Thank you for posting.
Such great tips!! Thank you. Not even pregnant...but just LOVE everything! P.S. We love your granola at our house too. I get requests for it from my husband. :)
Can I please ask if coconut milk (canned) is actually healthy? Since I thought it’s super high in saturated fat? Would really appreciate your insight 😊
I am not pregnant but since I love your videos so much, and I love being educated I had to watch! Been a follower for many years now. I love your channel! Thank you for helping others learn about healthy living!
I’m not pregnant or even a mom but this was very cool to watch just for healthier food ideas & choices
Oh thank u! So glad I found your channel
You inspire me! Where can I find that sourdough recipe 🤩
Lime juice ice cubes are genius !!!
Thank you so much for this INCREDIBLE information Ellen! I really appreciate it. I’m not sure if you’ll respond to this or you’ve spoken about this before but do you take prenatal vitamins? And if so, which ones do you take/recommend? Thanks again love 💕
Hi Kiana. If you haven’t heard of Ritual check them out. I did a lot of research for a vegan prenatal and that became my favorite and I’ve been taking it for a while now. There are so many options. This is just one of them.
@@stellaelise1 thank you so much! Coincidentally I started taking Ritual multivitamins about a month ago and wondered about their prenatals so this is wonderful to hear 💗
Im also taking Ritual!
She made a video about it when she was pregnant with her last babes, she takes several different vitamins but the brand was garden of life
The video was a vlog when she came to California and visited her friend Alicia silverstone
Hey Ellen! Do you eat a lot of tofu? What do you think of tofu everyday?
You have a truly beautiful channel. 🙏🏻💚
What do you think about Celtic sea salt? What kind of salt do use? Your healthy eating has inspired me
I understand how all these foods are extremely rich especially when you get them locally grown and organic. But I wonder, how does the nutrition look in these foods, when we/I buy them from the supermarket, where they might even be shipped from other countries and sometimes not even available organic.
Would love to hear if there is much difference there ☺️✨
Thanks for the video Ellen, I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well.
Do you guys still shop at Costco? Would you do a video on good vegan things to shop for at Costco?
Thank you for this informative video with such beautiful footage!!
Do you do any meal preps to make the week simpler?
I’m not vegan but i do try to have vegan/vegetarian days to at least lower my animal product consumption (i just really struggle with my energy big time with a completely vegan diet unfortunately) but i love watching your videos for suggestions on healthy options!
Really? My energy has improved since going vegan yeeeaaars ago! It’s important to keep your iron and vitamin B and D levels in order though as that can leave you feel drained. We don’t need a few perfect vegans, we need tons of imperfect vegans! ☺️ 🌱 ☮️
i’ve been watching since it was just elvis and sandy, so happy for ur little but not so little anymore family 😢
Would def be trying out this coconut milk icecream
Healthy plantbased food is always great, I find this inspirational even though I‘m not having a 👶🏻😊🤙🌺
Same here! I needed this, it's motivating :)
@@annemarieseunnenga I immediately made the coconut icecream, roasted veggies and made banana-nut-muffins 🤣
Hey Ellen I had a quick question so I was going to get dulse it’s the exact same bag u showed in this video but on the bottom of the bag is says warning consuming this product can expose you to chemicals including lead. Is this true?
I just found out I’m pregnant & decided to do water birth & that’s how I discovered your channel I love it 😅i need recipe books because I’ve been wanting to go fully plant based for years & u just motivate me to pursue it now especially that I’ve just found out I’m expecting
Wow. Normally id be the type of person to misjudge and ask how is this possible ? But your children and you are living proof that plant based diets are great. Love this, God bless. I learned something new today!
Mic the Vegan's newborn baby just died from the vegan diet.
@@andrewhenderson6544 thats crazy I wonder if her children will do as well in the long term
@@andrewhenderson6544 are you being serious?
@@maztergee Yes... mother's milk is high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which is only found in animal foods because guess what, humans are animals! Vegans don't eat animal food so their milk is not nutritious enough to sustain life. This is the same reason why women miss periods and become infertile.
your hair is looking great! do you still use function of beauty? or could you do an updated regimen? 😃
I am allergic to coconut and I feel that Every healthy meal nowadays adds this in the recipe, do you have any suggestions as to substitutions? I am always afraid that it will alter the taste of the recipe and then it won't be as good 😔 Thanks for your help ♥️ And I Love You, Your Family and the Amazing Content you impart with us 🙏🏻
hey, maybe cashew cream (mixing cashews and some water) or plantbased plantmilk maybe? if its role is thickening I would use potatoes/rice (I blend these to thicken soups) or starch or flour. in sweet recipes I would try using plantbased yoghurts. I know it doesnt work for every recipe but maybe for some. hope u find this helpful :)
oats can be made into flour or milk
I thought I was the only one that did half and half quinoa to rice! Kids and husband love it that way over just quinoa
Missing your inspiring videos here radiant Earth mama. Hope you & your sweet family are doing really well these days. 🥰😘
Congratulations on your 5th pregnancy! I’m new to your channel recently subscribed and I look forward to follow you along this journey specially since I my self just found out I’m pregnant with our 6th baby 🤗😳😬🤯 😁 I find myself experiencing food aversion. Which I had no idea what it was until recently, I find myself being hungry all the time but nothing seems appealing to me everything is just 🤢 specially meats and poultry. This pregnancy is really a WHOLE new experience to me compared to how easy going all 5 past pregnancies have been for me with my boy’s (the reason I firmly believe it’s finally a girl this time 🤞🏽☺️) so I found my self frustrated and still hungry last night after not enjoying dinner asking my spirt guide Raul 😇 to Please Please Please guide me to any and all UA-cam videos that can help me inform, learn and over all just help me with this food aversion of mine and how to manage it and just help me find the help I am looking for and really need and well here I am I have been watching a lot of your videos this morning and every food you’ve mentioned so far just sounds like it’s exactly what I need right now! Like i truly feel like I can tolerate it and feel good about eating “light” if I may say so with out the concern of not eating meats and poultry like I used to and feel like I am not eating appropriately… hope that made sense any how I look forward to your videos. I truly believe I am here for a reason and you have some how been put in my feed to help me with my food aversion and intrest in eating healthier this time around. Thanks in advance
