I went and saw a nutritionalist today and talked to her about how to make sure I am getting the most nutrient dense foods into my diet.
She answered really good questions for me, such as....
1.) Is Quinoa a 'wheat' product??... Answer, no.
2.) How to get Kale in my diet without juicing (I hate green drinks)... Answer, sautéed like spinach or bake with olive oil and sea salt. Yay!
3.) Is egg substitute better then egg whites?... Answer, not really cause they add chemicals and preservatives to egg substitute.
4.) Is decaf coffee better or less regular black coffee?... Answer, Green Tea...boo:(
Side note she did say that a little reg coffee was fine and better then decaf cause it is a chemical process to take out the caffeine... Wow, really?!?!
We did blood work for food allergies, deficiencies and to see what my blood type is. I will get the results in a few weeks.
Now off to the grocery store again to get food for dinner. It's a lot of work eating fresh organic foods! They don't last as long as the boxed stuff... Weird!
I steamed Kale the pour soy sauce and sesame oil. I surprised many people with how easy it is but it tastes so good.
