Ep. #8: Part 3: You’re telling me not to eat apples???
In this episode, we’re tackling the controversial topic of whether a lower carb diet is truly healthy. We understand that some of you may have concerns about avoiding certain high-sugar, high-starch fruits and veggies. But fear not, because we’re here to provide clarity on the matter!
Let’s shift our focus away from what we can’t eat and instead embrace the wide variety of delicious foods that align with a lower carb lifestyle. The key is finding the right balance and timing.
By being mindful of high-carb foods, especially in the morning when our body’s response to carbohydrates is more sensitive, we can maintain stable blood sugar levels and avoid unpleasant spikes. Pairing carbs with protein or fat can also make a significant difference in how our bodies process them.
Trust us, it’s all about finding the sweet spot.
And while we’re at it, we’ll share some of our favourite ways to enjoy healthy foods including a surprising way to prepare cauliflower.
So, grab your favourite mug, brew a cup of deliciousness, and get ready to challenge misconceptions, shift perspectives, and uncover the secrets of timing and pairing in a lower carb lifestyle. Cheers to healthy eating and breaking free from limitations!
