Eat / Healing Leaky Gut:

Healing leaky gut: days 19 and 20

It's been a weekend with sick kids and home crafts. I've been extremely craving coffee and chocolate, but have managed to stay away from my vices:-). I continue to spend a lot of time in the kitchen and my husband is happy every time he sits down at the dinner table. The kids aren't as flirty though, especially now that they've been feelin unwell. But they certainly eat more fruit and vegetables and less sweets now compared to what they did around Christmas.


Breakfast

Raspberry smoothie

Ingredients

0.5 dl frozen raspberries

0.5 dl frozen strawberries

0,5 banana

0,5 avocado

1 dl papaya, mango, pineapple

2 dl cold tea

Instructions

Peel and slice the fruit. Put all the ingredients in a blender. Enjoy!


Snacks

Banana, clementine


Lunch

Hearty meat stew


Snacks

Papaya


Dinner

Butter poached fish with pear slaw

Ingredients

800 gr talapia (or other white fish)

150 gr butter

Salt

2 pears

2 carrots

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

2 tsp sesame oil

Instructions

Start making pear slaw, it's good to leave it in the fridge for a while. Peel the pears and carrots. Cut into long thin sticks, place in a bowl, add apple cider vinegar and sesame oil. Mix well.

Melt the butter in a frying pan and add a pinch of salt. Add the fish.

Let it cook in the butter on low heat for about 10 minutes before turning it over and letting it cook for another 8 minutes. Enjoy!

This was good! Felt like a luxurious weekend meal. Definitely one of my favourites so far. Probably tied with Fish tacos with mango salsa.


Evening Snacks

Freshly squeezed grapefruit and orange juice



Day 20

Breakfast

Blueberry Smoothie


Snacks

Banana, apple


Lunch

Butter poached fish with pear slaw (see above)


Snacks

Cucumber, carrots


Dinner

David's home cooking with cauliflower rice

Secret recipe...

Ingredients for cauliflower rice

1 head of cauliflower

Avocado oil

Salt

Instructions

Process the cauliflower in a blender until it looks like "small grains of rice". Fry the cauliflower in the oil for about 10 minutes, salt to taste. Enjoy!

The cauliflower rice was very tasty with the home cooking, which in turn tasted good, despite its appearance. The kids liked the cauliflower rice too, so it's sure to become a family favourite for various stews. A great alternative to rice, pasta and potatoes.

  • Healing leaky gut: day 7


    Today I have felt stressed. Stressed that everything is taking so long. That I feel like I have no time for anything. That the list of things that need to be done never ends. Well, you understand and recognise that feeling, I guess. I've had a planning day. I've put together the menu for the week and shopped for what I need until Friday. Tomorrow's schedule includes cooking.

  • Healing leaky gut: day 9


    Now things are starting to happen. I woke up at 5 am after 7.5 hours of sleep and was alert. For the second day in a row! I'm getting back into balance. No one else told me I had to do this project, it's something I felt I wanted and needed to do. I did a similar project a few years ago and the result was that I felt like a princess afterwards. That's the target image I have when the sweet tooth or coffee craving sets in. I want to feel like that princess again. Because that princess can't be stopped when she sets new goals!

  • Healing leaky gut: day 29


    Second day with eggs in the diet again. Haven't noticed any negative effects yet, so hopefully eggs will work for me. I will max out this weekend, so on Monday I will be able to evaluate if it is working or not. It's really fun to sit down and write again, part 1 of 4 in my series of articles on "Leaky Gut" is now published.

  • 6 basic principles for a healthy lifestyle - Diet and Hydration (2/6)


    This is part 2 of 6 in my blog series on the 6 basic principles for a healthy lifestyle - the following articles are also included in the series: Introduction (1/6), Sleep (3/6), Positive thinking (4/6), Movement and Breathing Techniques (5/6) and Discussion (6/6).

    Diet and hydration can dramatically affect your energy levels and biochemical composition, which in turn affects your emotional and mental reality. When our diet is deficient, there is simply not enough energy or focused thought activity to initiate or sustain the changes needed for us to take good care of ourselves. My recommendations based on my own experiences are to vary and rotate the diet, to use only "real" food and to make it as simple as possible so that it works in real life, to eat 5 times a day and to always eat as much as you need.

  • The famous keyhole - A trend that lives on?!


    We sit in the kitchen and eat our breakfast as a family. Before my 8-year-old daughter starts eating, she lines up everything on the table. I ask her what she is doing and she says, as if it is a matter of course, that she puts the packages in order according to how much sugar each product contains. On the far left is the unsweetened almond milk and on the far right is Dad's orange juice...

  • Do you go by gut feeling? Do you trust it?


    Have you ever felt butterflies in your stomach or a lump in your throat? Do you ever get a special feeling in your stomach when you meet someone you like or don't like? Has your stomach told you whether something is right or wrong for you?

    The stomach can be seen as a source of your intuition. Gut feeling is actually not just nonsense! There are now scientists who insist that we humans have two brains, one of which is located in the stomach (you probably know where the other one is located)! The "brain" of the stomach is located under the outer lining and between the muscular layers of the oesophagus, stomach lining and intestines and is better known as the enteric nervous system (ENS).
