Now you think oatmeal is bad? Let’s debunk it.

First… comment FIBER and I’ll send you my go to brand that is soooooo much easier to digest.

Second..Yes, oats contain phytic acid which is called an anti nutrient because it can reduce the absorption of certain minerals.

Third…. how do you fix that anti nutrient issue? I prefer soaking oats overnight and using sprouted oats. Both help break down some of the phytic acid and make oats easier to digest.

A few extra tips:
-Start with 1/4 cup, not a giant bowl
-Add protein to help keep you full
-Mix in 1 tsp basil seeds for extra fiber and healthy fats
- Protein, carbs, fiber, healthy fats = balanced blood sugar, easier digestion, and more energy.
-Annnnnd don’t forget to chew 🫶🏻

Ideally eating these foods about 15 minutes before your meals is best but adding them INTO your meals still counts. If you missed my radicchio post I shared my full list of go to bitter foods, I’ll tag ya.

Crispy White Bean Arugula Salad
1 large clamshell arugula tossed with lemon zest, lemon juice, lil drizzle evoo,sea salt. Give it a quick massage

Easy basil vinaigrette:
1 packed cup basil

Not everything needs to be a bitter food like radicchio (if you saw my last post) or chia seeds (I prefer basil seeds but that’s another post), lentils or the perfect amount of protein alllll the time
Don’t forget you still eat with pleasure and that’s a big part of your gut function and enteric nervous system. Still enjoying food. Food is also pleasure, enjoy it. It’s not supposed to be a chore or the villain.
Enjoy your weekend, focus on the 80/20 rule. 80% of the time you eat protein rich, fiber rich, gut diverse, healthy food. 20% of the time you get to enjoy your favorite food pleasures🫶🏻

Cause who doesn’t love a warm fresh baked croissant??????? 🥐 🤤

Your gut also does this👇🏻🤩

• helps control blood sugar and constant cravings
• aids in metabolism and fat storage
• estrogen and hormone balance
• reduce and remove chronic and acute inflammation
• improve your energy and sleep
• how you absorb and utilize nutrients
• brain health now and later
• how your body detoxifies and removes toxins
• getting sick all the time and even allergies

Which is exactly why supporting your gut “function” not just basic gut health changes so much more than JUST digestion, bloating and pooping.

Btw, you don’t have to deal with bloating allllll the time. Let’s fix that👇🏻

Bitter foods are one of the most forgotten tools for digestive issues. Why I talk about gut function vs JUST that blanket term gut health…

They help turn on your natural digestive enzymes, support bile flow, help you digest food better, absorb nutrients better, and yes, they even support your natural GLP 1 production so you feel satisfied faster.

Here are more bitter foods if munching on radicchio is just not your thing right now:
arugula
watercress
kale
endive
dandelion greens
mustard greens
lemon peel
ginger
dandelion tea
bitter tinctures
diluted apple cider vinegar in water

You can also make bitter foods easier by pairing them with olive oil, citrus, sea salt, avocado, or adding them into salads and meals instead of eating them completely plain. BUT eating them plain is the BEST way! I have recipes for this coming soooooon!

The goal isn’t to torture yourself with bitter foods…The goal is helping turn digestion back ON before meals.

My ALIGN Assessments are on a serious special this month

This is a 90 minute deep dive where I personalize your gut function for real life, plus you get follow up recipes, a Food Foundation, and so much more.

More smearing of the sauce, so satisfying! 🤤

Spicy salmon sheet pan meal with crispy white beans and kale

4 cups Dino kale

1 tsp chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, optional cayenne
Lemon for juice
Evoo
Salt and pepper

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment. Place the kale in a large bowl.
2. Add 2 tbsp evoo to kale. Sprinkle salt and a tiny bit of lemon juice then massage the kale briefly. Arrange in an even layer on prepared sheet pan.
3. Pat your white beans dry with paper towels or a clean dish rag to remove as much water as possible. Arrange in an even layer on the same sheet pan top with a sprinkle of salt and pepper and a small drizzle of olive oil to evenly coat as best as possible.
4. Dry your salmon and add it to your pan. Drizzle on evoo, then rub in chili powder, optional cayenne, smoked paprika and garlic powder. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
