1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: You may have heard that the Mediterranean diet is one 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: of the healthiest diets that there is, But what if 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: I told you today that there was an even healthier 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: version than the Mediterranean diet. Today, on the midweek motivational 5 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: episode of The Nutrition Couch, we are going to talk 6 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,079 Speaker 1: which is actually the world's healthiest diets and the ways 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: that you may be undoing all of your hard work 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: when it comes to eating for health and longevity. Hi, 9 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm Susie Burrows, and each week we bring you The 10 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: Nutrition Couch, the biwi me podcast that keeps you up 11 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: to date on everything you need to know in the 12 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: world of nutrition as well as the world's healthiest diets. Today, 13 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: Leanne is going to share a healthier type of juice 14 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: that she's found in the supermarket, and she's also been 15 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: cooking up some pretty healthy fare which she's going to 16 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: share with us now that the temperatures are dropping a 17 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: little bit. But to kick us off today, Leanne, I 18 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: had a really interesting article across my path. Because we 19 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: have spoken about the Mediterranean diet for many, many years. 20 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: You know that people who come from the Mediterranean area 21 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: and have good fats and loads of servers of fresh 22 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: fruits and vegetables live longer and have less disease risk. 23 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: But actually, when you. 24 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: Look at the science around healthy eating, there's actually a 25 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: diet that dates back more than twenty years that is technically, 26 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: we say technically because the Mediterranean diet is still a 27 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: good choice, but technically from a scientific perspective, actually healthier 28 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: than that, meaning that when people follow it, they actually 29 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: live longer and have even a lower risk of developing 30 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: lifestyle diseases. So I thought, we haven't spoken about this before, 31 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: and it might be a pretty interesting topic. So it's 32 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: called the Alternate Healthy Eating Index AHEI, and also known. 33 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: You may have seen it, or if you google it, it 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: comes up as the Harvard Diet Plan. And the reason 35 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: is that was developed by a Harvard research or a 36 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: very well known researcher in the nutrition space, doctor Walter Willett, 37 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: and he had used it, as I said, over twenty 38 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: years ago when he was categorizing data sets of people 39 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: and their lifespan and their disease risk and what they eight. 40 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: And the really interesting thing about the Harvard diet plane 41 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: compared to the Mediterranean is that when he was assessing 42 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: people's diets for health, not only did he assess the 43 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: number of good foods they were eating, So for example, 44 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: if they were eating a certain number of serves of 45 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: fruit and vegetables, or a certain type of oil or 46 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: exercise into a certain amount. He also lean took into 47 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: account poor dietary habits, so for example, if people consume 48 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: sugar sweetened drinks, or consume takeaway foods more frequently, or 49 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: had particularly high intakes of red meat. So rather than 50 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 1: just focus on what people were consuming in the diet, 51 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: it also took into account the bad foods they were 52 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: adding and the effect of that. So it's actually a 53 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: research tool that gives you a dietary score. So unlike 54 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: the Mediterranean diet, which is a general description of an 55 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: eating pattern and that so he recommends seven to tend 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: serves of fresh fruit and veg or so much extraversion 57 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: olive oil each day and minimal process foods. This diet 58 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: actually assigns scores for key components and then you don't 59 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: get any points if there's or actually lose points if 60 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 1: there's some other areas in it. So for example, when 61 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: you graze yourself, if you don't consume any vegetables, you 62 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: get a score of zero, whereas if you consume five 63 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 1: or more servis per day, you get a score of ten. 64 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: If you had sugar, sweet and drinks or juice added 65 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: to your diet, you would reverse the scoring, so it 66 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: get say a minus value taken, and so overall, when 67 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: you do all the calculations, it's quite labor intensive. You 68 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: get a sort of a score. I think it's out 69 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: of one hundred and twenty and that is basically a 70 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: hundred and ten, a perfect dietary score. And the reason 71 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: I wanted to discuss it today was not because I 72 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: expect everyone to go and score their own diets, which 73 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: you certainly can and do that if you search the 74 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: Harvard Diet. But I thought it was really interestingly and 75 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: because it was the first time in an evidence based 76 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: way I had heard it discuss that it's not only 77 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: about the foods that you have, but also the bad 78 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: foods that are there. Because I see this a lot 79 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: with my clients. Land on the surface, their diets are good, 80 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: you know, they're having more vegetables after we've done our 81 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: work together. They're you know, having protein balance, they're choosing 82 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: better quality carbohydrates. But and we know this from studies 83 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: about what astrains eat in general. There's still plenty of 84 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: crap going in. There's still plenty of red meat or 85 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: processed meat, there's still sweet treats, there's still alcohol. And 86 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: so I think it is an important message in what 87 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: I wanted to discuss today. It's not enough to just 88 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: tick the box on the good stuff going in. You've 89 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: also got to make sure that the extras, the discretionary food, 90 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: the bad fats, the fast food, the takeaway aren't slipping 91 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: in too much, because that does have a negative effect 92 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: on our health and wellbeing long term. And it's really 93 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: easy to do. You know, if you treat yourself each day, 94 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: if you drink alcohol more than a couple of days 95 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: a week, if you order uber eats more than once 96 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: or twice, you know, those negatives are really adding up 97 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: and that has a big role to play in our 98 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: overall health risk. So had you heard of this before 99 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 1: or seen it with clients? We've spoken about it. 100 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: I've briefly heard of it, but if I'm being honest, 101 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: I hadn't done too much reading about it. But they 102 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: really looked at some you know, like some of the 103 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: research behind it is quite strong because they actually analyzed 104 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: so many huge kind of studies and just for our 105 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 2: little science nerd listers out there like Susie and I 106 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 2: who want to know a little bit more about the 107 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: science behind it. In the article, it really talks about 108 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 2: some of the research links. So, people who scored higher 109 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: on the AHHI, which is the Alternative Healthy Eating Index, 110 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 2: had a lower risk of chrodict disease. So one of 111 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: the big key studies that they looked at, which came 112 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: from the Journal of Nutrition, which we know is a 113 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 2: very reputable journal, included seventy one thousand, four hundred and 114 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 2: ninety five women and forty one and twenty nine men, 115 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: So they analyzed over one hundred thousand people, and they 116 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 2: found that those people in that study who scored higher 117 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 2: on the AHEI index had a nineteen percent lower risk 118 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 2: of chrodict disease, including a thirty one percent lower risk 119 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 2: of heart disease and a thirty three percent lower risk 120 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 2: of diabetes compared to people who had a low score. Now, 121 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 2: they also looked at another study in the American Journal 122 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 2: of Clinical Nutrition, and in that study there were seven 123 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 2: three hundred and nineteen participants, and of those participants, once 124 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 2: they schooled through their diet, those who had higher schools 125 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: had a twenty five percent lower risk of dying from 126 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 2: any course and a forty percent lower risk of dying 127 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: from cardiovascular disease. So some of these health marcos Suzi 128 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 2: like they're too good to go pass. And like you said, 129 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 2: I really like that it scores you well for the 130 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: healthy foods you consume. But like we know from seeing clients, 131 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 2: we can and week out in our clinics for you know, 132 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: close to eurover ten years. I'm close to ten years 133 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: myself in clinical practice. We're still eating too much crap, right, 134 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: We're reading some good foods, we're making the effort to 135 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 2: have more vegetables, but there's too much alcohol, there's too 136 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 2: much ultra processed foods, there's too many treats. There's two 137 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: bigger portions of that kind of stuff going in. It's 138 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 2: kind of like a relatively well Monday to Thursday, then Friday, Saturday, 139 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 2: Sunday is a bit of a free for all. So 140 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 2: I like that it's of it gives and takes points 141 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 2: away to kind of come up with an overall I 142 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: guess rating out of one hundred and ten. 143 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: And I think the take home message for listeners is 144 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: not too scaremonger anyone, but I do regularly see extra 145 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: slipping in now. In particular, what this highlighted was that 146 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: there's no safe amount of sugar, sweet and beverage in 147 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: our diet. Whether it's we're going to talk about vegi 148 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: juice in a second, but concentrated fruit juices, coconut water, 149 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: cordial energy drinks, soft drinks. It really is bad for us. 150 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: You know, there's no safe amount. You shouldn't have it 151 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: as a treat for kids on the weekend. I see 152 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: it all the time. They should never have it. It's 153 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: one of the most toxic foods that can go into 154 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: their diet. And that's well a lot of evidence around that, 155 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: and I think Walter Willett was years ahead of his 156 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: time to name that twenty years ago. Of effect on 157 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: blood glucose regulation and craving for sweet food, it's got 158 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: to go that you can't have a safe amount of it. 159 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: And the other is I think the fast food and 160 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: the takeaway we're busy, we're time poor, you know, we're 161 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: often ordering in a couple of times a week, or 162 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: buying our lunch out two or three times a week. 163 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: That is generally processed fast food it's really high calorie, 164 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: it uses a lot of extra fats, it uses refined carbohydrates. 165 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: So you know, the take home message for me is 166 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: really have a look in how often are you treating yourself. 167 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: It's time to get honest, and if it is more 168 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: than a couple of times a week with fried or 169 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: fast food, it's time to cut back and really limit 170 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: it to that once a week. Really minimize any kind 171 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: of sugary drink intake, and of course focus on what 172 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: we always talk about, which is the seven to ten 173 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: serves of fresh fruit and veggies and those simple sort 174 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: of hard steps and cleaning up the diet will go 175 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: a long way in reducing disease risk and hopefully helping 176 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: you to live a long, a healthy life. But if 177 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: you do want to do your own calculation score, you 178 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: can go to the Harvard website and look under the 179 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: Harvard Diet Plan and calculate it yourself. It's quite interesting, Lynne. 180 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: And as well as focusing on the veggies and the fruit, 181 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 2: I'll just round us out by saying the whole grains matter, 182 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 2: nut legumes, vegetable type protein sources like tofu, of course, fishing, salmon, 183 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: and some of our healthy fats like extravert and olive 184 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: oil and avocado. They all help to give you more 185 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,599 Speaker 2: points towards the scoring system as well. Now doing a 186 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 2: little product review, we've obviously changed the format of our 187 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: podcast today, Susi, so we just sort of talk about 188 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,959 Speaker 2: one new interesting product that we found at the supermarket. 189 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: And this week I wanted to chat about a vegetable juice. 190 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: And we know, or hopefully our listeners know that often 191 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 2: a lot of the vegetable juice is in the supermarket 192 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: or in the juice bars are often really just fruit 193 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 2: juices with a little bit of spinach or a little 194 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 2: bit of kales thrown in for good measure. So to 195 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: come across one at the supermarket where a couple of 196 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: vegetables added, and in fact this one has two point 197 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: eight serves of vegetables, Susie, this is one of the 198 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: best commercially made veggie juices I've actually seen, which is 199 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 2: really great. So it's the original juice veggie goodness, spinach, 200 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 2: zucchini in kale. So it comes in a liter bottle. 201 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: It retails for six dollars at will work, so it's 202 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 2: not I wouldn't say it's a budget friendly option. But 203 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: I really do think that if you're someone who doesn't 204 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: love vegetables, it is a good way to get it in. 205 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: And in my opinion, this is better than having something 206 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 2: like a greens powder. We could ask a lot of 207 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 2: questions about greens powder, but at least you're getting more 208 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 2: nutrients from the actual vegetables themselves. We're always food first. 209 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: If you can't eat the food in its whole form, 210 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 2: fine juice it, get it down how you can, and 211 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 2: then lastly would come something like a green's powder. So 212 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: the original veggie juice contains sixty eight percent yellow carrot juice, 213 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 2: followed by sixteen percent cloudy pair, followed by three and 214 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,719 Speaker 2: a half percent of zucchini puraid two and a half 215 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,559 Speaker 2: percent of kale puree. We've also got some lemon juice 216 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: in there, some food acid and some vitamin C. So 217 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: out of those ingredients susy a super clean ingredient panel. 218 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 2: We've got carrot juice, pay out, zucchini, kale, and lemon juice. 219 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 2: So three different types of vegetables in there, with a 220 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: bit of pair just to make it that little bit 221 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 2: more palatable, and two point eight serves of vegetables overall, 222 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 2: which I think is fabulous. So a serving size the 223 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 2: company is considered as two fifty mils so a cup. 224 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 2: So per cup, we've got three hundred and thirty eight 225 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 2: kilo dules, zero grams of protein, zerograms of fat, which 226 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,479 Speaker 2: we would expect, fourteen grams of carbohydrates. That's naturally occurring carbohydrates, 227 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 2: with all fourteen of that being fourteen grams of sugar. 228 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 2: So the bulk of that is coming from the pear juice, 229 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 2: but also a little bit out of the carrot and 230 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: some of the lemon juice as well. I haven't listened 231 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: any nitary fiber on the label. I haven't actually tried 232 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 2: this one, I must admit from a palatability perspective, but 233 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 2: it might be one of those really strained juices, or 234 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 2: I assume it would have a little bit of fiber 235 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: content in there anyway. But you're absolutely going to always 236 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: do best having the real deal. But I did think 237 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 2: that this was a great one that you can kind 238 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: of pop into the supermarket and see if even if 239 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 2: your kids can have a little bit, you know, water 240 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 2: down if they find it a little bit sort of 241 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: too much. But I think it's a great way to 242 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 2: get in a couple of extra serves and veggies for 243 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 2: the whole family. 244 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: I love veggie juices. Now if you go to the 245 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: juice bars, there's sort of seven eight dollars, but I'll 246 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: often get a green juice or a beechhroot celery carrot, 247 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: and I actually encourage any of my clients who have 248 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: high blood pressure to include a beettroot juice each day. 249 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: I think it's a really great way to get a 250 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: concentrated source of antioxidants. And you're right. For kids who 251 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: aren't great veggie eaters and if they're happy to have 252 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 1: a green juice, I think it's a great choice. But 253 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan, and I think that it can 254 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: be a great nutritious addition to the diet and quite 255 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: different to a fruit based juice. They're not inexpensive, but 256 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: this is you're right, one of the best I've seen. 257 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: I also like quite like the V eight green and 258 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: beech reot juice in the long life section, but I 259 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: think this is actually in the fridge section. 260 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 2: This one. It's not long mind, yeah. 261 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: But I haven't seen it. I think it's a great find, 262 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: and yeah, you know, I sort of recommend it almost 263 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: as a medicinal shot like that's based on two fifty meal. 264 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: I usually get my clients to have say one hundred 265 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: and one to fifty, just to keep the carbs under 266 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: control a bit. But I have no issue with it, 267 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: and my personally Leanne, find that they're much better if 268 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: you have them with ice really iced up. They're much 269 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: more refreshing. Oh, I was going to say, coming into winter, 270 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: a great way to boost your intake of key nutrients, 271 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: including vitamin C. And also for anyone recovering from long 272 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: COVID a ED juice is a great addition. All right, Well, 273 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: for our final segment of the show, Leanne, Now I 274 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: Leanne and I both cook regularly, and we're going to 275 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: start to share a lot more of what we're cooking 276 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: at home. Now, Leanne has cooked up something very warm 277 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: and nourishing for the Pooler days. Now, I can't say 278 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: it would probably be on the top of my list, 279 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: but Leanne is a big fan. So what are we 280 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: encouraging everyone to make this week? 281 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 2: Land Look, I know you're not a fan of the 282 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,080 Speaker 2: beans and the legames, but for health over all, one 283 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 2: of the best things we can do. So these are 284 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 2: some healthy sausage rolls, healthy sausage rolls, so they're vegetarian based. 285 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 2: There's no meat in them. I'm not obviously a big 286 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 2: fan of sausage rolls. It's got the type of meat 287 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 2: that we don't really want in there for good health, 288 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 2: and of course a lot of fat coming from the 289 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 2: pup pastry. So there's a couple of things we can 290 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: do to make this healthier overall. But I made these, 291 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: and even David and his mum had some and they 292 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: were like, these are delicious ones in these. So the 293 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: recipes from taste dot com they called cheesy vegetarian sausage rolls. 294 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 2: They actually added a little bit of vegemite in here, 295 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 2: which I didn't add to mine. But the basic ingredients 296 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 2: are olive oil, brown onion, and garlic. They added vegimite. 297 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: I thought that was weird, so I left it out, 298 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 2: chili flags and a couple of spices. Then they've added mushrooms, 299 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 2: grated sweet potato, and tin of brown lentils. I also 300 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 2: grated up some carracters zucchini to get in some extra vegetables. 301 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: You cook all the veggie up, then you stir through 302 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 2: some cheese, make it nice and cheesy. Then you put 303 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: it between some pup pastry. You roll it up, you 304 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: brush it with egg on top, and you bake your 305 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 2: sausage rolls basically, so they're healthier kind of vegetarian sausage roles. 306 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: You're getting in more fiber, far less red meat based protein, 307 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 2: so it's good for your health. But it's still high 308 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 2: protein with the lentils and the cheese as well. Super 309 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 2: super delicious susie, really really tasty. And to make them 310 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: a little bit better, I added obviously more grated veggie 311 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: to boost the veggie intake, which I thought was great. 312 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 2: And if you're really concerned about you know, puff pastry 313 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 2: is quite heavy. It is quite high calorie, quite high fat. 314 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 2: If you use something like a Philo pastry instead, you 315 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 2: can actually save yourself a huge whack of calories as well, 316 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 2: so much better from a health perspective. But if you've 317 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 2: got little kids who are struggling to eat well, struggling 318 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: to gain weight by all means, use a puff pastry. 319 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 2: But if you're someone who's trying to monitor or lose 320 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 2: body fat, you're probably far better off swapping to a 321 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 2: Philo pastry. 322 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: I think they did look delicious, absolutely they did. Can 323 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: I ask you though. What was MIA's thoughts on them?
