How to best use quarantine to focus on your health

How to best use quarantine to focus on your health

April 3, 2020 //  by Marian Mitchell//  Leave a Comment

Now that schools are closed and the country is in quarantine until at least May, there has never been a better time to focus on your health. The unknown is scary but now we know. We can make a plan. Now is the time!

YOU MAY NEVER HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY AGAIN

Never has there ever been a time where we have so much….well…time. You may not be driving to work, and if you are, there’s much less traffic, so your commute is shorter. You aren’t going to a million different activities every day. Sure you can dine out every night but do you really want to afford that indefinitely?

If you’ve been putting off eating well due to time, you can’t say that anymore! If you aren’t sure where to begin, I got you covered. Changing up the way that you plan, grocery shop, and cook IS challenging.

You aren’t alone

How to best use quarantine to focus on your healthBeing a former really bad cook, I know just how difficult it can be. Back when I was learning how to cook and grocery shop, I had a lot of help. Now, you do too! Me, I’m the help and I’m excited about it!

My mission is to make your transition to a healthier life (long term) as easy as possible. Hence, “Effortless Therapeutic Diets” and I put healthy eating into that category.

The Number One Health Habit

The number one health habit you can have is meal planning. Meal planning saves you hundreds of dollars per month. You will go to the store less, while using what you buy. You’ll have tons of variety and have a list of meal options to prevent food boredom. (That will definitely happen if you don’t plan because we all pick about 4 things we know we like and then that’s all we eat.) You’ll be less likely to gain a bunch of weight while being less active.

Many people don’t know where to begin. They don’t want to eat the same meal for 5 days straight like many meal planning blogs suggest. They also don’t want to buy a million ingredients. Then there’s the thing where you don’t even know if you’ll like it. They need a place to start.

This is where a meal planning course comes in handy. Instead of spending hours on the internet and Pinterest trying to find recipes that sound good that also don’t use a million ingredients or take an hour and a half to cook (we have the time but do we really want to?), you can invest in a course that makes it easy. Then you can focus on the time you have to master the skill so that you can make it work for your family and lifestyle.

My Meal Planning Made Easy course is the 4-week jumpstart you need to change your food shopping, cooking, and eating habits over for good. I designed just for you 4 weeks of meal plans with shopping lists and recipes that are done in 10-20 minutes to make your life as easy as possible. Most of the food you’ll be able to find in stores now because (at least around here) the healthy foods aren’t being touched.

Whether you:

  • Have newly diagnosed food sensitivities or allergies
  • Leaky gut
  • Thyroid issues
  • Autoimmune disease
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Chronic pain
  • PCOS
  • Struggling with weight loss
  • Blood sugar issues
  • Just want to eat better

This program will work for you. 

You can get all the deets and get started here. 

Stay well and take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity to make a lasting positive impact on your health.

Homemade Date Truffles are a delicious and healthy Homemade Date Truffles are a delicious and healthy snack that satisfy the sweet tooth. I actually don't make them often because I'll eat the entire batch in 2 days 🤭 They are so yummy though.

Dates have been around since around 5,000-6,000 BCE and are known as nature’s candy. Not only are they absolutely delicious, they are nutrient powerhouses. They contain protein, fatty acids and an array of vitamins and minerals. Including, but not limited to, Vitamin A, lutein, vitamin K, niacin, B6, folate, pantothenic acid (another B vitamin), choline (brain booster), calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc and phosphorus.

On top of all this, they help protect against tooth decay even being so high in natural sugars. This is because they contain elemental flourine, not the man made flouride that is in added to water or what is in flourinated toothpaste.

Ingredients 👇
Dates
Crushed almonds
Crushed cashews
Honey 
Coconut oil 
Vanilla extract 
Sea salt
Chocolate chips 
Shredded coconut or cocoa powder

7 snacks 🤤

One of the most effective ways to transform your h One of the most effective ways to transform your health, make your medication more effective, and just plain feel better is to clean up your diet.

This is often easier said than done. Changes habits is hard. It requires energy and time, which often is in short supply. However, it isn't as hard as you think. Here are my 3 steps to get started. I don't recommend doing them all at once. Start with step 1, then move on. Slow and steady wins the race.
Healthy eating gets boring fast when you don't add Healthy eating gets boring fast when you don't add flavor. How do you get flavor in a healthy way? 
◾️Herbs
◾️spices
◾️sauces
You can make the exact same protein and veggies taste at least 12 different ways depending on what you put on top.

My top favorite sauce is Chimichurri. It's a blend of parsley, oregano, garlic, olive oil, salt, and red pepper flakes blended into deliciousness. I put it on top of my cooked proteins, on my veggies, and will even use as a salad dressing. It's sooooooo good.

You can get this recipe over on my website: https://www.roadtolivingwhole.com/traditional-chimichurri-sauce/ and enjoy this delicious sauce too!

Bitter foods stimulates the entire digestive syste Bitter foods stimulates the entire digestive system from our saliva being able to more effectively start the breakdown of carbohydrates, hydrochloric acid being pumped into our stomachs in appropriate amounts, and increases bile production.

The benefits of digestive bitters are pretty amazing and include:

◾️Higher absorption of nutrition from our foods
◾️Especially vitamins A, D, K, E and B12
◾️Reduce incidences of heartburn
◾️Increase fat digestion, which is particularly important for those who have had their gallbladders removed or are concerned about their gallbladder health
◾️Cleansing of the liver
◾️Reduction in gas, bloating, and constipation
◾️Balancing blood sugar levels
◾️Appetite regulation
◾️Promotes healthy skin

Pretty awesome right?! Deficiencies in fat soluble nutrients, gallbladder issues, sluggish liver, constipation run pretty rampant these days. It’s nice to know we have a solution that doesn’t cause other health issues.

Rare chronic disorders are not only hard to diagno Rare chronic disorders are not only hard to diagnose, but they are also difficult to treat. Histamine Intolerance looks like a lot of random symptoms that don't make much sense. Once you finally know what is going on, your ND will lay out a plan to help you reduce the histamine build-up and get you feeling normal again.

Be sure to read all the pictures and learn what you have control over. As always, if you'd like a meal plan to give you a jump start while you figure things out, I got one for you.
