Learn 3 KEY Brain Healthy Diets. MIND, Mediterranean, Dale Bredesen’s Protocol.

2 Comments

My work has focused on three evidence based brain healthy diets. These are Dale Bredesen’s Protocol, the MIND diet, and the Mediterranean diet. All of these diets have been studied in clinical trials. All have been shown to decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s and even improve brain health.

Research has been fast and furious once it was understood that the Western diet shrinks the brain beginning around age 40 years.

The connection between diet – brain health is becoming increasing clear. The need to move in the diet direction is becoming urgent as ultra-processed food is topping food consumption and, it negatively impacts gut microbiome and brain health leading to disease.

Halupki (Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls) PALEO, SCD, UMass IBD-AID

Leave a comment

Halupki (Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls) PALEO, SCD, UMass IBD-AID is a family favorite comfort food recipe. Interestingly, it is also one of the recipes I provided last year to our Ukrainian nutrition support effort. We were providing recipes in war torn regions having limited ingredients that resembled traditional foods and which would help with digestion. In the Ukraine, nutritionists/dieticians must be MDs thus all were no longer available to the public as they were involved with the war effort. I mention that and note the contrast to U.S. MDs, who have negligble nutrition education.

This recipe has been in my mother’s family forever. Her roots were nearby with a birth certificate reading Austria-Hungary, though she always mentioned Czechoslovakia.

My mother would place a whole head of cabbage for a few minutes in simmering water to soften its outer leaves. Those were used to roll up the meat mixture. This recipe greatly modifies this tedious step and uses an oven, crockpot, OR Instant pot for baking. It is so dang simple to make and it is loaded with incredible nutrition including the spice load, antioxidant rich vegetables used, and lean protein.

Vegan diet is not preferred for older adults!?!

Leave a comment

Stop! A vegan diet is not preferred for older adults!?! YES, I preach about eating more vegetables for microbiome support. But it’s time to dive deeper and clarify that older adults need to consume an adequate amount of high-quality dietary protein in order to prevent age-related muscle loss. Up to 40% develop this! Surprisingly, the amount of protein NOW recommended for older people is GREATER than the current RDA! The way to make sure you’re getting enough protein is probably NOT by eating a vegan diet –>

BONE BROTH Recipe AND Collagen HYDROLYSATE SCIENCE

6 Comments

SUMMARY: Bone Broth is a traditional food that has been on dinner tables for ages, and yet it has nearly disappeared from the American table. I spent years researching what’s in Bone Broth, and why I should make it for my family. After all, it seemed to be loaded with hidden dangers like the potential for lead leaching into the Bone Broth from the slow cooker vessel and the animal bones themselves, histamine reactions due to its long cook, and even contrary to what other bloggers write, the TRUTH is that the evidence finds there’s NOT a huge mineral load in Bone Broth. After reading loads of studies, I decided to post this BRIEF FREE summary of what I found because the evidence proved to me that there are many components in Bone Broth that makes it worthwhile to make. I now do so as do leading functional medicine doctors like Cleveland Clinic Health Essentials, Dr. Mark Hyman, and Dr. Kara Fitzgerald. You can also read here how bone broth is being used during fast just prior to cancer immunotherapy to improve outcomes for insulin resistant related type cancers (breast, colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, pancreatic cancer, glioblastoma multiforme).

COVID19 Projections, Tracking

Leave a comment

Summary: This post is a repository of COVID19 Projections I am following as I try to make sense of COVID19 prevalence, transmissibility, and the high risk groups for severe illness. It shares expert discussion concerning the UK, and if they’ve actually entered into “herd immunity” phase which means the spread of COVID19 should decrease there because so many have been infected. To confirm this, the UK is beginning this week with serum antibody testing to better learn if they’ve in fact entered into “herd immunity”. I am no expert, but these projections are forefront and heavily influence my thoughts. This post also introduces you to the UK Covidradar tracking app soon to be accessible in the U.S. by the end of this week according lead researcher Tim Spector. With this app, you self-report daily (even if you’re well) to help inform healthcare system and policy makers where the virus is spreading supporting COVID Projections. Last, this post begins the conversation of seasonality of COVID19 and what you can do in your home and workplace to lower risk of respiratory infection (spoiler alert –> relative humidity matters). Follow along and comment with related information you find insightful. I’ll update this post or add comments of related important information as well. All the links below have been opened for public access, but if you can’t direct access the articles, msg me for hardcopy. Stay Home and Stay Well guys! XOXO

Luke’s Healthy Poptart PALEO, SCD (and its versions PRODUCE, UMass IBD-AID)

Leave a comment

SUMMARY: This recipe, Luke’s Healthy Poptart, is particularly healthy because it uses blueberries, nuts, flaxseed, and Ceylon cinnamon.  We’re talking brain health, microbiome supportive fiber, phytochemicals, and blood sugar regulating spices! The recipe is so satiating that nugget sizes are the serving size! This recipe came about because Luke was reminiscing and belly aching about not having the snack bag which included Poptarts, that we use to pack for the long 11 hour trip to the beach.  It was easy to redo that food into a whole clean food, bursting with gut microbiome supportive ingredients and minus those that evidence shows can cause harm.  Enjoy this recipe with redic delic pleasure! Happy New Year, Happy New Decade!
