RECIPE 👇
You’re not sad.
You just need a big a$$ salad. 🥗
Recipe:
• 1 chicken apple sausage**
• 2-3 handfuls mixed greens
• 2 mini cucumbers chopped (~100g)
• 1/2 sweet bell peppers (~80g)
• 2/3 cup roasted root veggies (85g)
• 2 tbsp Bolthouse ranch
Approx macros:
👉 ~400-450 calories
👉 30-35g protein
👉 8-10g fiber
**I use Meadow Creek Chicken Apple Sausage which has 29g protein per 150g link. You can sub for chicken breast or thigsh for more accessible protein packed option!
Here’s why this slaps:
✔️ Protein keeps you full + supports muscle (especially important 40+)
✔️ Fiber slows digestion + stabilizes blood sugar
✔️ Volume lets you eat a LOT of food without blowing calories
This is how you stop the “snack all night” cycle.
This is how you stop starting over Monday.
Big bowls.
Balanced meals.
Repeatable habits.

They may taste great…
but many frozen meals are loaded with refined table salt.
And excessive sodium can lead to:
⚠️ Fluid retention
⚠️ Swelling & inflammation
⚠️ Extra strain on the kidneys
Salt itself isn’t the enemy —
but highly processed table salt in packaged foods can be a problem.
A simple alternative?
🥗 Grab a prepackaged salad with nuts or seeds.
It’s quick, convenient, and a much better option than most frozen dinners.

Your body is starving for nutrients, not calories!
Stop wasting time with foods that aren’t providing any benefits, and add these nutrient-rich foods to your diet instead.
It’s amazing how good you start to feel when you feed your body what it really needs.
1. Sauerkraut
Raw sauerkraut is a rich source of beneficial microbes and one of the most potent probiotics. It is high in fiber, low in carbs, and is a great source of vitamin C. Sauerkraut is rich in glutamine, vitamin K2, vitamin U, and phytonutrients like sulforaphane.
2. Arugula
This vegetable is low in oxalates, high in nitric oxide, and supports the endothelial layer of the arteries.
3. Wild-caught salmon
Wild-caught fatty fish are the best source of omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon is rich in selenium, which helps bind to mercury and remove it from the body, so you don’t have to worry about mercury when you consume it.
4. Cod liver
Cod liver has the most omega-3 fatty acids of any food and is a potent source of healthy fat.
5. Hamburger
Grass-fed ground beef is one of the best superfoods there is! It’s loaded with B vitamins, zinc, iron, carnosine, creatine, and other essential nutrients. Opt for organic ground beef with a higher fat content for maximum benefits.
6. Brazil nuts
Brazil nuts contain the highest amount of selenium of any food, which is essential for healthy thyroid and immune function. Selenium protects the reproductive system and also helps prevent hair loss.
7. Extra-virgin olive oil
This healthy fat helps extract phytonutrients from your salad. It is beneficial for heart and cellular health and has potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-clotting properties.

Everyone wants the supplement that “balances blood sugar.”
But in my clinic, I fix dinner first.
This is one of the meals I recommend to patients whose glucose spikes after dinner because it combines:
✔ protein
✔ fiber
✔ slow carbs
✔ healthy fat
That combination slows digestion and keeps your glucose curve much steadier overnight.
1-Pot Rosemary Chicken, White Bean & Vegetable Skillet
Ingredients
• 1 lb chicken breast or chicken thighs, diced
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 zucchini, chopped
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 can white beans (cannellini), drained
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• ½ cup dry white wine
• 1 tsp chopped fresh rosemary (or ½ tsp dried)
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• salt and pepper to taste
• squeeze of lemon
• fresh parsley (optional)
Directions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and cook until lightly browned. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 2–3 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for a minute to reduce slightly. Stir in the zucchini, bell pepper, tomatoes, white beans, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cover and let everything cook together for about 10 minutes until the vegetables soften and the flavors come together. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and fresh parsley.
Serve as is or over a small scoop of quinoa if you want a little extra slow carbohydrate.
Because of the protein and fiber, this meal slows carbohydrate absorption and helps prevent those big post-dinner spikes.
Simple food.
Smart strategy.

Sodium (salt) has received a lot of bad rap. So understanbly people avoid it!
The problem with sodium is that it's in the majority of packaged food. If your diet contains a lot of packaged food, this is where the problem lies. It's the accumulation of sodium from various products consumed over the day or week. And like with most things, too much sodium can be damaging for your health. Like they say, "too much of a good thing is not a good thing."
However, on the other end of the scale. If you mainly follow a whole food diet (I say mainly because no one is perfect), you might not be getting enough sodium.
We need sodium for;
- maintaining hydration
- support nerve an muslce function
- nutrient transport
- electroyte balance (helps with energy)
Rock salt, sea salt, celtic salt, himalayan salt, mineral salt - all of these salts are great. They are in their natural form (unrefined) and still contain naturally occurring minerals.
On average, about 1/2-1 tsp per day of salt is ideal. Physical activity and current health conditions all impact sodium requirements.
