Maybe not a full half liter a day, but yeah, a glass of red wine at lunch was totally a thing.

Looked it up, and it’s real. Until 1956, French school kids were casually sipping wine during lunch like it was no big deal.

No wonder Europeans seem more relaxed. More human, honestly. They’ve got siestas, long lunches, and that il dolce far niente mindset, mastering the art of doing nothing and actually enjoying it.

Meanwhile in the US, kids are downing synthetic energy drinks, glued to screens, and calling fast food “convenient nutrition.”

Sometimes you gotta look back to remember what real living feels like. Slow down. Pour the glass. Enjoy the moment.

And make sure it’s biodynamic, because nearly all wine in the US is drenched in glyphosate! Most vineyards are sprayed heavy. Know what you’re drinking 🍷

This is steak done right, sourced from organic, 100% grass-fed beef it is cut thick, at least three fingers wide for juicy perfection.

I keep it rare or medium-rare to preserve all those essential amino acids that high heat can damage. Usually, it takes 12-14 min on the highest grill setting. My two go-to seasonings are coarse black pepper and fresh, aromatic thyme.

I vacuum-seal the steaks for a few days, which tenderizes the meat and enhances its rich, natural flavors with herbal aroma.

The result is a primal, delicious experience. Hedonism at its finest 🥩

Let’s talk essentials. A live, raw probiotic drink is a daily necessity for healing and vitality. I prepare mine with pure, all-natural ingredients to deliver maximum nourishment to the body.

Starting with raw coconut water, packed with electrolytes and minerals, I add freshly squeezed organic juices: pomegranate, dark grapes, elderberry, blueberry, blackberry, apples, unpeeled citron, plus fresh ginger and turmeric roots. These provide a powerhouse of antioxidants, vitamins, and anti-inflammatory compounds to support cellular repair, fight oxidative stress, and boost immunity.

Next, I introduce live strains of bifido and lacto probiotics, essential for maintaining a balanced gut microbiome. These probiotics aid digestion, improve nutrient absorption, and fortify the immune system by supporting the gut, where most immunity originates.

A touch of raw, unfiltered honey adds natural sweetness and acts as a prebiotic, feeding beneficial bacteria to encourage their growth and activity.

A daily shot of this drink floods your body with essential nutrients, promotes healthy gut flora, and enhances immune defenses. It’s a simple yet transformative addition to any routine, restoring balance and vitality from the inside out.

Today’s lunch is my definition of conscious sustainability.

Wild salmon, perfectly oven-seared and finished with a silky sauce of unfiltered olive oil, citron, and Provence herbs, brings bold flavor and natural richness to the plate. It’s a powerhouse of omegas, high-quality protein, and essential vitamins D and B12.

Next to it, a trio of huge wild scallops grilled to perfection. Juicy, tender, and packed with proteins, zinc, magnesium, and iodine. All are key nutrients that support metabolism, immune healthand cellular function.

A perfect combination and a true representation of what real food and functional nutrition should be.

Maintaining healthy eyesight is crucial for overall well-being, and a healthy diet plays a significant role in eye health.

Several natural superfoods, rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, are known to support and enhance vision. The WePrana Diet incorporates many of these into daily meals, embodying the famous saying, 'Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food!

Let's delve into why these specific components are considered potent for healthy eyesight:

Carotenoids:
- Lycopene (Tomato Concentrate): Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant found in tomatoes. It can help protect the eyes from oxidative stress which may contribute to the development of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
- Astaxanthin (Haematococcus Algae): This is a keto-carotenoid with anti-inflammatory properties, known for protecting the retina from oxidative damage and improving blood flow to the eye tissues.
- Mixed Carotenoids (Goji & Sea Buckthorn Extract): Carotenoids, including beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin, are found in high concentrations in the retina and are integral to protecting the eyes from the harmful effects of blue light and oxidative stress.
- Marigold Flower Extract (Free Lutein and Zeaxanthin): Lutein and zeaxanthin are directly involved in visual function. They are considered to be the only dietary carotenoids that accumulate in the retina, especially the macula, helping to protect it from blue light.
- Saffron Flower Extract (Crocin/Crocetin): Saffron is rich in crocin and crocetin, which have been found to improve visual acuity and protect against retinal degeneration.

Flavonoids:
- Black Currant, Aronia, Elderberry, Bilberry Extracts: These berries are known for high levels of anthocyanins, flavonoids that can improve night vision, reduce eye fatigue, and slow down the progression of disorders like AMD.
- Grape Seed Extract: Rich in proanthocyanidins, this extract is known for its antioxidant properties that help strengthen the retina and may prevent cataracts.
- Wild Pine Bark Extract: Contains polyphenols which are beneficial for reducing inflammation and improving the overall function of the blood vessels in the eyes.

Enzymes
- Kale & Watercress Concentrates (Glucosinolates & Myrosinase Enzyme): These components are known for their detoxifying properties, potentially beneficial for protecting the eyes from environmental toxins.
- Catalase Fermented Enzyme: This enzyme may help reduce the risk of cataracts by breaking down hydrogen peroxide in the eye, which can cause oxidative damage.

Incorporating these superfoods into a daily diet delivers a broad spectrum of antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that are known to support eye health and protect against various eye conditions. While each ingredient has a specific role, together they provide comprehensive support for maintaining healthy vision and protecting against oxidative stress.

Enjoy!

WePrana Diet Longevity Brunch

Incorporating a WePrana Diet into your lifestyle is like unlocking a new level of health and vitality through the purest forms of nourishment.

It’s a reflection of my commitment to a holistic approach to wellness, where every bite is an opportunity to support both physical and mental health.

The centerpiece of this meal is a lush papaya and papaya/cacao raw pudding. Papaya, with its digestive enzymes, works wonders for gut health, while raw cacao is a natural mood elevator and antioxidant powerhouse.

Accompanying silky smooth pudding comes a raw cookie, densely packed with superfood-enriched raw nuts and seeds, maca and ashwagandha powders, and h**p seeds. This is a true power snack and a nutritional blueprint for energy, brain health, and sustained wellness, aligning perfectly with the WePrana Diet's principles of eating pure unrefined foods that are as close to their natural state as possible.

The final touch here is a nootropic raw chocolate fudge bar, infused with lion's mane and chaga mushroom extracts. This bar works as a brain booster, enhancing cognitive functions and supporting overall brain health.

Adopting a WePrana Diet isn’t just about what we eat; it’s about reconnecting with the natural world and its rhythms and choosing foods that nourish us deeply and completely.

This brunch is a testament to that philosophy—a meal that supports a vibrant, healthy lifestyle, full of energy and clarity.

It’s a gentle reminder that in the simplicity of natural foods lies the key to true wellness. Enjoy!

Ancestral protein refers to the types of proteins consumed by our ancestors for centuries, which were sourced from natural, whole foods.

This approach to eating protein emphasizes the importance of consuming proteins in their most natural and unprocessed form, similar to how early humans would have eaten. These proteins come from some plant and mostly animal sources and are considered crucial for a balanced diet, supporting various bodily functions including muscle repair, hormone production, and immune system support.

Ancestral proteins offer a holistic approach to nutrition, emphasizing the importance of consuming proteins in their most natural and unprocessed form. This approach not only supports physical health but also aligns with environmental sustainability and ethical eating practices.

Benefits:

1. High Nutritional Value
Ancestral proteins are unprocessed and contain a wide range of nutrients. Animal sources, for instance, provide not only high-quality protein but also essential vitamins and minerals like B vitamins, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids. Plant sources offer fiber, antioxidants, and phytonutrients in addition to protein.

2. Improved Digestibility
Unprocessed foods are easier for the body to digest. Ancestral protein sources, like freshly caught wild fish or grass-fed meats, are closer to their natural state and can be more easily broken down and absorbed by the body.

4. Healthier Fats
Ancestral sources of animal protein often have a healthier fat profile, including higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and lower levels of omega-6 fatty acids, contributing to reduced inflammation and better heart health.

Natural Sources

Animal Sources
Grass-fed beef, wild-caught fish, free-range poultry, and pasture eggs are excellent sources of high-quality ancestral proteins. These sources provide complete proteins, containing all nine essential amino acids that the body cannot produce on its own.

Plant Sources
Some ancient grains like quinoa and amaranth, legumes (beans and lentils), raw nuts and seeds, are great plant-based sources of ancestral proteins. While most plant proteins are not complete, combining different plant sources can ensure you get all essential amino acids.

Daily Diet

Muscle Maintenance and Growth
Proteins are the building blocks of muscle tissue, making them essential for muscle repair and growth. This is particularly important as we age and start to lose muscle mass.

Weight Management
Protein is more satiating than carbohydrates or fats, meaning it can help you feel fuller for longer, aiding in weight management.

Bone Health
Adequate protein intake is crucial for maintaining strong bones, alongside other nutrients like calcium and vitamin D.

Overall Health
Consuming a variety of protein sources ensures a wide range of other nutrients are included in the diet, supporting overall health and reducing the risk of various diseases.
