Hi everyone, welcome back 23 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: to I Choose Me. My guest this week, Doctor Amyshaw 24 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: reminds us that no matter where you are on the 25 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: hormonal continuum, there are small shifts, or, as I like 26 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: to say, choices you can start making today that will 27 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: support your gut health, strengthen your mind gut hormone connections, 28 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: and even help increase longevity. There's just so much to 29 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: learn from doctor Amy, and her new book, Hormone Havoc 30 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: really covers it all, so I asked her to break 31 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: it all down for us. You talk about getting rid 32 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: of ultra processed foods as the first step. What are 33 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: examples the process? 34 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: Chips and cookies. 35 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: And in the bag? 36 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, but not just anything in the bad. 37 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 3: It's anything that you could not recreate in your kitchen. 38 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 3: So if it was just potatoes and salt, you could 39 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: recreate that. 40 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 2: But if it's like. 41 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 3: A complicated twenty ingredient thing that doesn't even have food 42 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 3: in it, you could not recreate that in your kitchen. 43 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 2: And there's a lot of things like that. 44 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 1: It's so many things. You look at the ingredient list 45 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: and you're like, why are there so many ingredients? I 46 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: know it no idea what these are. 47 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 3: That's right, it should just be the three things that 48 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 3: you would need to. 49 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: Make that food. And if that's the case, that's what 50 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 2: you want to stick to. 51 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: So small ingredients tested on the outside of packaging is 52 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: very very important. Love that you say, we can support 53 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: estrogen levels with a sniff. So talk to me about 54 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: the benefits of essential oils because I love essential oils. 55 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: I am such a fan of essential oils too. But 56 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 3: there's actually really good data that there's certain you know 57 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 3: and you can there's a whole list. There's many, many, many, 58 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: many essential oils that can actually support form one levels 59 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: and bring down cortisol and improve mood. And it's like, 60 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 3: what tell us like a cop okay like peppermint, for example, 61 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: is a great way to improve mood and stop cravings 62 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 3: neurolis in there. 63 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: What's your favorite? 64 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: I love Nearola. You just had that. I know that 65 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: clar stage is really good for our horns. 66 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Claire stage is one of the best ones. 67 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: That one doesn't smell that great to know it's not 68 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: as it's pretty strong. Yes, so I mix it with others. 69 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 3: I like peppermint because I feel like peppermint is one 70 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: that you could have after a meal or small after 71 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 3: a meal and then just feel satisfied and not need 72 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: that sweet treat. 73 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it kind of wakes you up too, Yeah, 74 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: it wakes you up. I love essential oils too. It's 75 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: so funny because they come and they go in the 76 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: news rotation of their importance, you know. Yeah, I think 77 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: it's true waiting for you. 78 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 2: Yeah.

Fun being honest, 82 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: are their foods we should keep on hand to help 83 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: with this disruptive symptom. 84 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. So one of my favorite foods, honestly hacks is blueberries. 85 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 2: Blueberries not only. 86 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,679 Speaker 3: Have fiber, but they have these dark blue compounds called polyphenols, 87 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 3: and they have been own and studies blueberries to actually 88 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 3: boost your mood and brain function within hours of eating that. So, 89 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 3: like if you had a big meeting or test or 90 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 3: like you just want to boost your brain and mood 91 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 3: that day, you can have a couple of blueberries and 92 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 3: study show that you will feel that boost. 93 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: That's incredible, And frozen blueberries count too. 94 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,679 Speaker 3: Frozen blueberries count sometimes even better, right, because they're frozen 95 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: at the peak of freshness. It's like when you do 96 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 3: egg freezing at the peak of. 97 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: Freshness, only the good ones. Yeah. 98 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, so then you. 99 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: End up having really full of polyphenols blueberries. 100 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: I love that. I'm going to have a blueberry filled 101 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: smoothie at some point and that'll be my I choose 102 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: the moment today. Yes, Okay, so you talk about resetting 103 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: your gut in just three days. I am seriously going 104 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: to do this because things have not been the same 105 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:58,799 Speaker 1: for me since Thanksgiving. Just my intake is off and yeah, 106 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: my moods are swing in. Everything is different. So give 107 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: me how do I do this in three days? 108 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: What about? Okay? 109 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: So, long story short, you have to really change your 110 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: diet and lifestyle for three days to see a difference. 111 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 3: So the cobody that showed it was like a ultra 112 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 3: process full, sugar full, you know, diet and then changing 113 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 3: it to a whole foods lots of fruits, and vegetables. 114 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 3: So my thirty thirty three, if you did that for 115 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 3: three days, you would start to feel better. Thirty grams 116 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 3: of protein in the morning, thirty grams of fiber throughout 117 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 3: the day, and three servings of probiotic foods every single day. 118 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: Okay, I've been preaching this since I read the book 119 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: two days ago, to everybody exceed thirty thirty three. Yes, 120 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: and you recommend getting those thirty grams of protein right 121 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,119 Speaker 1: in the beginning of the day, which is not that hard. Yes, 122 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: I think that's really hard. 123 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 3: I think it's like the easiest one actually, out of 124 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 3: the three because per stent of people are not getting 125 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 3: in a fiber or probiotics. But I think people are 126 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: starting to learn the importance of protein. And if you 127 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 3: thropload your protein, your day is going to be so 128 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 3: much better. You're gonna have less cravings, you're gonna have 129 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 3: better mood, you're gonna have more energy, and you're more 130 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 3: likely to get to your total protein goals. So that 131 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: looks like, you know, an egg scramble with veggies and 132 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: then maybe some cottage cheese or yogurt on the side 133 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 3: to add to that protein load. But because if you 134 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 3: did all just eggs. You could use egg whites and 135 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 3: have a nice big scramble, but you'd need like five. 136 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: What about tofu tofu scramble about. 137 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 2: That tofu scramble, love that tofu scramble. 138 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 3: With veggies to bump up the fiber and have that 139 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: in the morning. Or you know, you could do a 140 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 3: Greek yogurt perthae or a non dairy yogurt perfe. You 141 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 3: could do a protein powder mixed into your yogurt or. 142 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 2: Milk or whatever you want to have a smoothie. You can. 143 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: Definitely there's so many ways to get that protein in 144 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: the morning. It doesn't have to be any one particular food, 145 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 3: but getting it in the beginning of the day is 146 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 3: really really important. 147 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think it's so interesting how we've learned the numbers. 148 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: You know how before it was just like eat more fiber, 149 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: get more protein, But now we're getting more scientific about 150 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: it and saying you start with thirty grams start your day. 151 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: And I do that front loading of the protein because 152 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: I feel like, oh my gosh, I'm like halfway to 153 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: my full goal for the day. This is just one 154 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: meal that I've had. 155 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 2: So do you love tofu? 156 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: You meant I love tofu. Yeah, I don't eat dairy 157 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: or anything. 158 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so difficult. 159 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 3: The nice thing about tofu especially is that it has 160 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: fido estrogens, which by the way, is not dangerous for 161 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 3: people who are like one during. 162 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 2: Like oh my god, that has estrogen. 163 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 3: You know. 164 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: Everybody's especially my husband, is like, I can't eat too 165 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: much tofu. I'm gonna get man boobs. 166 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: No, that's phido estrogen's work differently than actual estrogen, but 167 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 3: they do support estrogen for people who are going. 168 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: Through that phase where they're either low or no estrogen. 169 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 3: You really do get a boost because it has estrogen 170 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 3: like activity. But it doesn't, you know, increase your cancer 171 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: risk or make you man boobs or all that stuff. 172 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 2: But it is good. It's actually superfood. 173 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: And during this time, oh well, I'm good then I 174 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: eat yeah, pretty much every single day. 175 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 2: And if you do. 176 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: Honestly, the worry was in me like, oh am I 177 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: eating too much soy or you know, but I'm so 178 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: happy to hear you say that. I'm not. 179 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 3: If you do a tofu and black bean scramble, you 180 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: get thirty grams so easily because the black beans are 181 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 3: like so full of protein too, and both of them have. 182 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 3: Black beans are a super big source of good fiber 183 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,119 Speaker 3: as well, so it's a really great combination. 184 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: Chop up some broccoli in there. 185 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go. 186 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 1: You're making me so hungry. 187 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 2: I know, I was thinking the same thing. 188 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: Wait, that reminds me of the meno belly. Yes, you 189 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: know that all of a sudden pooch that just comes 190 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: out of nowhere. It is how do we get rid 191 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: of that? 192 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 3: So I think when I was in medical school and training, 193 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 3: I feel like it was kind of a myth, like, oh, 194 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 3: there's this thing like meno belly. But it's literally a 195 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 3: fact that people get a change in their fat distribution 196 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 3: during perimenopause, and like I think it's like over eighty 197 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 3: five percent of people have this notice this change, and 198 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: so it's not something that is that's like one of 199 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 3: the most troublesome symptoms. I think that happens. And again, 200 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 3: it's if you increase your protein and your fiber and 201 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 3: your probiotic foods, and you increase the amount that you're walking. 202 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 3: I don't necessarily think that it has to be a 203 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 3: high intensity workout. 204 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: Every day, like we are told in society. 205 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 3: I think just moving your body more, getting enough sleep, 206 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 3: and eating for your gut and hormones can really help reverse. 207 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: Some of these so so good, these are all perfect easy, 208 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: little I choose me moments that we can do. I mean, yeah, 209 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: going to the gym and working out for two hours 210 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 1: is a little bit like too much, yeah, for a 211 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: lot of us to incorporate into our busy schedules in 212 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: our days. And also we're tired, we don't want to 213 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: go work out, I know, just move and walk and 214 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: eat well and get your sleep, the three like most 215 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 1: important things. 216 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 2: I think that's that's absolutely right. 217 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 3: And I think in fact, we're often killing ourselves. Like 218 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 3: my old me self was going to these high intensity 219 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: workouts but never recovering and never sleeping enough and never 220 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 3: kicking a day off, and I was actually worsening that 221 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 3: whole situation where my cortosol was sky high, and then 222 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: I was, you know, gaining fat in all the wrong places. 223 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 3: And I think that lots of women don't understand that 224 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 3: you need to give yourself permission to recover and maybe 225 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: do some low intensity activities in there. 226 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, okay, wait, I have to go back to 227 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: the prebiotic thing, freed pro whatever it is. Apple cider vinegar. 228 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: I could probably handle that. What do you think is 229 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: the best way to disguise getting what is it? Two 230 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 1: ta spoons three teaspoons in? 231 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, so raw apple sider vinegar acts like a probiotic 232 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 3: in our body, you know, with the mother, the ont 233 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 3: the skobe sitting in. 234 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: There, the same thing from weird Like. 235 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a light life. It's bacteria. 236 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 3: And so if you add that to a big glass 237 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: of water, you won even taste it. 238 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 2: If you add it to your. 239 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 3: Dressing, salad dress, okay, you probably like you can really 240 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 3: mask it very well. 241 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: It works really well that way. 242 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: And if you add like a little spoon into something 243 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 3: you're making all like a smoothie or something not hot, 244 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 3: it's another. But I think adding it to a glass 245 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 3: of water, a lot of people find that's super super 246 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 3: easy because it doesn't barely like when you add it 247 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 3: to enough water really takes away the taste completely. 248 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna try it because I need that. I 249 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: need those because I'm not gonna eat sauerkraut. I'm not 250 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: gonna do it. 251 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 4: No, but there are there are you know what what 252 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 4: I realized is there's a lot of things out there 253 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 4: like NATO, and there's a lot of things out there 254 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 4: that we don't even think about when we're not thinking 255 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 4: about probiotics. 256 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 3: But if you go to your local health withthtore now 257 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 3: there's an entire section and you should pick and choose 258 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 3: something that you might want to try. That's exactly how 259 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: I found a couple of things that I actually enjoy. 260 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 3: And it's just something like you know, you can just 261 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 3: have when like a coconut cult yogurt for a dairy 262 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 3: free person might be a good option. There's lots of 263 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: new options out there, products out there. 264 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: I think it's important to read the label and just 265 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: look for pre biotic probiotics and anytime it says that, 266 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: just get it in. 267 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 268 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 3: So the nice thing is in the US, if something 269 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 3: has bacteria, it has to be labeled that has bacteria, 270 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 3: and so it's pretty easy to know. 271 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good. It's good that that happened relatively recently. 272 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: That better labeling on the food. 273 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 2: So yeah, and then the other good news. 274 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 3: I don't know if you love sourdough, but killed bacteria 275 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 3: in sourdough it's called post biotics, meaning that they're not 276 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: live anymore, and most of them are dead because they 277 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 3: hated it. But they still work really well like our 278 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 3: gut bacteria apparently really thrive when even if they get 279 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 3: post biotics. 280 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: Okay, that's good to know. Yeah, carbs, we love them, Yes, 281 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: we hate them. They don't. They don't love us back. 282 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: You know, we know that a diet heavy in carbs 283 00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: can cause unwanted weight gain and that blowdy feet. They 284 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 1: also spike your blood sugar, which is not good internally. 285 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: So give us the genius start check. 286 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 3: Yes, okay, so all of us love pasta and bread 287 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 3: and rice and potatoes. I don't think there's anybody out 288 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 3: there that I know that doesn't like one of those 289 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 3: or all of those, right, Yeah, and so once in 290 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 3: a while you might want to have a nice bowl 291 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 3: of pasta. 292 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 2: And so the hack is that if you put pasta in. 293 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 3: The refrigerator overnight, after it's cooked or half cooked, it 294 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 3: actually changes its structure. So some of the starch changes 295 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 3: and becomes resistant starch. Resistance starch just means like it 296 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 3: actually acts like fiber to our body and feeds. 297 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 2: The good gut bacteria. 298 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: So you took something that was super high and starch, 299 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 3: and you change some of that starch into something really 300 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 3: good for our gut, and so it is real and 301 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 3: you can heat it up. So after you put in 302 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 3: the fridge overnight, Okay, heat it up just like you would, 303 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 3: so it's kind of like enjoy them as leftovers and 304 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 3: they're healthier for you. That doesn't mean it becomes zero 305 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 3: calories or zero blood sugar impact. That really does change 306 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 3: it for those times you're creating it. 307 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: That's a great hack. Yeah, but I have to ask 308 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: you this because I do that. I'll make rice like 309 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,360 Speaker 1: kind of for the week or for the last few 310 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: days and just keep it on hand. But I saw 311 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: something on I don't know TikTok Instagram, one of them 312 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: that said if we store our rice over twenty four hours, 313 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: then we are eating mold. 314 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, so there's rice is something that you have to 315 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 3: really be careful with in terms of like you want 316 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 3: to refrigerate it right after it's cool down. So say 317 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 3: you cook it, you don't want to let us sit 318 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 3: out on your countertop for hours. 319 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 2: Before you put in the fridge, because. 320 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 3: There is not that it'll happen every time, but there's 321 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 3: a higher chance that it could be growing a bacteria 322 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 3: and that bacteria does not die when you put in 323 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 3: the fridge or boocket. 324 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not the bastia we want. 325 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not the bacteria we want.
