Really, could you 28 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: tell us like a few things, I don't know, three 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: or five items for people to try to avoid at 30 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: all costs, and then maybe like three to five that 31 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: you should definitely try to incorporate on a daily basis. 32 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: So pizza, which one like the avoid avoid avoid pizza? Yeah, 33 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: like like every other day, you can't eat pizza every 34 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: other day's protein. Cheese is protein? Right, Yeah. But a 35 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: lot of people, even as adults, are walking around their 36 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: lactose intolerant, they have no idea why oh I am 37 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: and I know it and I don't even care, And 38 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, so, but I have a question, like 39 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: what about like California crust pizza. Okay, I haven't had that, 40 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: but what is that healthier. I mean, that's a California cauliflower. Again, 41 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: that's a healthier alternative. You can try to mimic the 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: bad foods to something that's different that you're going to 43 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: cook at home, that you have control over with the condiments. Okay, 44 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: a lot of the time is more of the condiments 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: more than anything and stuff that makes it taste good. Yeah, 46 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: but I pizza, but cheese on pizza is like he like, 47 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: it's so heavy they drink it, which is why it's 48 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: so good, right, yeah, Um, ice cream and alcohol. Stay 49 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: away from ice cream and alcohol. I water, I know 50 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: so well, ice cream is dairy, right yeah. So so 51 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 1: we're just kind of all day if you can, but 52 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: not all You don't have to cut it out, but 53 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, be mindful, right Okay, And so why why 54 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: I know alcohol is like really bad. It's just calories. 55 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: You don't need calories. Okay, it's just you know that. 56 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: But I mean, but if you're drinking it straight and 57 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: taking to the head right with a little bit of lime, 58 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: that's different. Okay, Okay, So it's healthier alternative, wails exactly. 59 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 1: I can do that exactly. That's how we live our lives, right, right, Okay, 60 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: so that's four, give us more. Um, let's see what 61 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: to avoid just eating out like the McDonald's, the the 62 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: fast food, the chicken nuggets, all that is trash. Like 63 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: I remember, I haven't had McDonald's in such a long time, 64 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: and two years ago ahead McDonald's and I immediately I 65 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: was in a food coma. I went straight to sleep. 66 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: I was like, that's not normal. They are naturally putting 67 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: things in your foods to make you feel that way, 68 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: but it's addictive if they're fries are like out of control. 69 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: Although there really I don't even like their friends. I 70 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: don't like their fries them. Okay, alright, so and so 71 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: what should we incorporate? What you know, more water number one, 72 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: more greens, dark water. How do you feel like or 73 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: how important is to put like limb. I always see 74 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: like whatever you want to do, you can even put raspberries, blueberries, 75 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: anything to make it cute for you to you know, 76 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: get a little flavor. Yeah, not even to give it flavor, 77 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: but like is it important? Like is lemon? Is lemon 78 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: something that's it's different detoxication? Yeah, yeah, so people do 79 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: that for that, but I just drink it straight. If 80 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: you can tolerate. Some people naturally don't like that it's 81 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: too plain, and so they me too. It's so good, 82 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: you know. I remember when I was in college for what, 83 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: I don't know why, Like I and I used to 84 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: I used to drink juice and soda like Cherry Coke, 85 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: all this stuff all the time in college. And for 86 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: whatever reason, one day I was just like, I'm going 87 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: to stop drinking soda and juice and I'm just going 88 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: to drink water. And I did that, and I literally 89 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: lost like fifteen pounds immediately. That's crazy, right, that's crazy. Yeah, shouldn't. 90 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: And I never looked back. So now it's like, you know, 91 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: I drink water for the most part of it. I 92 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: drink a juice or something. It's like I don't know, 93 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: like I'm just for whatever, you know. Sometimes you ever 94 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: just like I just wanted some juice. Yes, you know, 95 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm like lacking at that time 96 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: like that. Maybe I'm just like all my period or something. 97 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: Maybe again again, being mindful of how your body is reacting, right, 98 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: and when sometimes I like to drop things down, like 99 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: why am I feeling like this? I'm bloated, I haven't 100 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: eaten blah blah. And then sometimes I'm like, oh, I'm hungry. 101 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: But that's a good tip, like like taking note of 102 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: how your body is feeling when you're feeling a little 103 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: off exactly like that. And maybe you were having cravings 104 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: because of your one week out or that time. Can 105 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: we go back to the stuff to avoid? Um? What 106 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: do you think about corn? Corn? Because I hear bad 107 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: things about corn. It's hard to digest. Corn is hard 108 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: to digest, it doesn't kernel breaks up in your system. Yeah, 109 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: I mean I think moderation. Yeah, I don't like to 110 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: restrict or you know, it's not cold turkey. The whole 111 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: progress over perfection. So eat it sometimes but not too much. Okay, 112 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: just keep that in mind, got it all right? Water, water, 113 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: corporate dark leafy greens, any kale, color greens, spinach, any 114 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: of to cook. Cook the kale, you can definitely. It 115 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: takes out a little bit of the nutritional value aspect 116 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: of it. Raw. I think it's probably better. But if 117 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: you can't, like, I don't like salads, so I really 118 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: just add a little bit of bone broth or chicken 119 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: broth and then that's it. Garlic and then called it. 120 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: You don't like that, what are you talking about? Cooking 121 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: my greens?

Okay, yeah, 125 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: I heard the bone broth is a bone from It 126 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: is like the broth from chicken. Yes, okay, okay. Sometimes 127 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: I do put olive oil on it and put it 128 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: in the oven. Yeah, that's good.
