1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: You may have heard that the Mediterranean diet is one 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: of the healthiest diets that there is, But what if 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,160 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 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: episode of The Nutrition Couch, we are going to talk 6 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,040 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 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: when it comes to eating for health and longevity. Hi, 9 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: I'm Susie Burrow, and each week we bring you The 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 1: Nutrition Couch, the bioisy podcast that keeps you up to 11 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:32,599 Speaker 1: date on everything you need to know in the world 12 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: of nutrition as well as the world's healthiest diets. Today, 13 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: Leanne is going to share a healthier type of juice 14 00:00:38,600 --> 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 fayre which she's going to 16 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: share with us now that the temperatures are dropping a 17 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: little bit. But to kick us off today, Leanne, I 18 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,040 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 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: You know that people who come from the Mediterranean area 21 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: and have good fats and loads of servers of fresh 22 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: fruits and vegetables, live longer and have less disease risk. 23 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:05,559 Speaker 2: But actually, when you. 24 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: Look at the science around healthy eating, there's actually a 25 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: diet that dates back more than twenty years that is technically, 26 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,480 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 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: than that, meaning that when people follow it, they actually 29 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: live longer and have even a lower risk of developing 30 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: lifestyle diseases. So I thought, we haven't spoken about this before, 31 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: and it might be a pretty interesting topic. So it's 32 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: called the Alternate Healthy Eating Index AHEI, and also known. 33 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: You may have seen it, or if you google it, 34 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: it comes up as the Harvard Diet Plan. And the 35 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: reason is it was developed by a Harvard research or 36 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: a very well known researcher in the nutrition space, doctor 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: Walter Willett, and he had used it, as I said, 38 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: over twenty years ago when he was categorizing data sets 39 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: of people and their lifespan and their disease risk and 40 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: what they eight. And the really interesting thing about the 41 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: Harvard diet plane compared to the Mediterranean is that when 42 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: he was assessing people's diets for health not only did 43 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: he assess the number of good foods they were eating, 44 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: so for example, if they were eating a certain number 45 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: of serves of fruit and vegetables, or a certain type 46 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: of oil or exercise into a certain amount. He also 47 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: lean took into account poor dietary habits, so for example, 48 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: if people consume sugar sweetened drinks, or consume takeaway foods 49 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: more frequently, or had particularly high intakes of red meat. 50 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: So rather than just focus on what people were consuming 51 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: in the diet, it also took into account the bad 52 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: foods they were adding and the effect of that. So 53 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: it's actually a research tool that gives you a dietary score. 54 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: So unlike the Mediterranean diet, which is a general description 55 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: of it an eating pattern and that so he recommend 56 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: seven to send serves of fresh fruit and veg or 57 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: so much extraversion olive oil each day, minimal process foods. 58 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: This diet actually assigns scores for key components and then 59 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: you don't get any points if there's or actually lose 60 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: points if there's some other areas in it. So for example, 61 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 1: when you graze yourself, if you don't consume any vegetables, 62 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: you get a score of zero. Whereas if you consume 63 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: five or more servis per day, you get a score 64 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: of ten. If you had sugar, sweet and drinks or 65 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: juice added to your diet, you would reverse the scoring, 66 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: so it get say a minus value taken, and so overall, 67 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 1: when you do all the calculations, it's quite labor intensive. 68 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: You get a sort of a score. I think it's 69 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: out of one hundred and twenty, and that is basically 70 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: a hundred and ten, a perfect dietary score. And the 71 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: reason I wanted to discuss it today was not because 72 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: I expect everyone to go and score their own diets, 73 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: which you certainly can and do that if you search 74 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: the Harvard Diet. But I thought it was really interestingly 75 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: and because it was the first time in an evidence 76 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: based way I had heard it discussed that it's not 77 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: only about the foods that you have, but also the 78 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: foods that are there. Because I see this a lot 79 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: with my clients. Land on the surface, their diets are good, 80 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: you know, they're having more vegetables after we've done our 81 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: work together. They're you know, having protein balance, they're choosing 82 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: better quality carbohydrates. But and we know this from studies 83 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: about what austrains eat in general. There's still plenty of 84 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: crap going in. There's still plenty of red meat or 85 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: processed meat, there's still sweet treats, there's still alcohol. And 86 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: so I think it is an important message in what 87 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to discuss today. It's not enough to just 88 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: tick the box on the good stuff going in. You've 89 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: also got to make sure that the extras, the discretionary food, 90 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: the bad fats, the fast food, the takeaway aren't slipping 91 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: in too much, because that does have a negative effect 92 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: on our health and wellbeing long term. And it's really 93 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: easy to do. You know, if you treat yourself each day, 94 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,080 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 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: or twice, you know, those negatives are really adding up 97 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: and that has a big role to play in our 98 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: overall health risk. So had you heard of this before 99 00:05:03,400 --> 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 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 2: I hadn't done too much reading about it. But they 102 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: really looked at some you know, like some of the 103 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 2: research behind it is quite strong because they actually analyzed 104 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 2: so many, you know, huge kind of studies and just 105 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: for our little science nerd lists out there like Susie 106 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: and I who want to know a little bit more 107 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: about the science behind it. In the article, it really 108 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: talks about some of the research links. So, people who 109 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 2: scored higher on the AHI, which is the Alternative Healthy 110 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 2: Eating Index, had a lower risk of product disease. So 111 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: one of the big key studies that they looked at, 112 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: which came from the Journal of Nutrition, which we know 113 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 2: is a very reputable journal, included seventy one thousand, four 114 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 2: hundred and ninety five women and forty one than twenty 115 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: nine men. So they analyzed over one hundred thousand people, 116 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: and they found that those people in that study who 117 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: scored higher on the AHEI index had a nineteen percent 118 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 2: lower risk of chroduct disease, including a thirty one percent 119 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: lower risk of heart disease and a thirty three percent 120 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: lower risk of diabetes compared to people who had a 121 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: low score. Now, they also looked at another study in 122 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 2: the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, and in that study 123 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 2: there were seven three hundred and nineteen participants and of 124 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 2: those participants, once they scooled through their diet those who 125 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 2: had higher schools had a twenty five percent lower risk 126 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 2: of dying from any cause and a forty percent lower 127 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 2: risk of dying from cardiovascular disease. So some of these 128 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: health marcos Suzi like they're too good to go pass. 129 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 2: And like you said, I really like that. It scores 130 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 2: you well for the healthy foods you consume. But like 131 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 2: we know from seeing clients, we can and weak out 132 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 2: in our clinics for you know, close to eurover ten years. 133 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: I'm close to ten years myself in clinical practice. We're 134 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 2: still eating too much crap. Right, We're reading some good foods, 135 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: we're making the effort to have more vegetables, but there's 136 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: too much alcohol, there's too much ultra processed foods, there's 137 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 2: too many treats. There's two bigger portions of that kind 138 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: of stuff going in. It's kind of like a relatively 139 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: well Monday to Thursday, then Friday, Saturday, Sunday is a 140 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: bit of a free for all. So I like this 141 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 2: is it gives and takes points away to kind of 142 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: come up with an overall I guess rating out of 143 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 2: one hundred and ten. 144 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: And I think the take home message for listeners is 145 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: not too scaremonger anyone, but I do regularly see extra 146 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: slipping in now. In particular, what this highlighted was that 147 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: there's no safe amount of sugar sweetened beverage in our diet. 148 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: Whether it's we're going to talk about vegie juice in 149 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:26,679 Speaker 1: a second, but concentrated fruit juices, coconut water, cordial energy drink, 150 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: soft drinks. It really is bad for us. You know, 151 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: there's no safe amount. You shouldn't have it as a 152 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: treat for kids on the weekend. I see it all 153 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: the time. They should never have it. It's one of 154 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: the most toxic foods that can go into their diet. 155 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: And that's well a lot of evidence around that, and 156 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: I think Walter Willet was years ahead of his time 157 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: to name that twenty years ago. Of effect on bloo 158 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: glucose regulation and craving for sweet food, it's got to 159 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: go that you can't have a safe amount of it. 160 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: And the other is I think the fast food and 161 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: the takeaway. We're busy, we're time poor, you know, we're 162 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: often ordering in a couple of times a week, or 163 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: buying our lunch out two or three times a week. 164 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: That is generally processed fast food. You know, it's really 165 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: high calorie, it uses a lot of extra fats, it 166 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: uses refined carbohydrates. So you know, the take home message 167 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: for me is really have a look in how often 168 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: are you treating yourself. It's time to get honest, and 169 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: if it is more than a couple of times a 170 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: week with fried or fast food, it's time to cut 171 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: back and really limit it to that once a week. 172 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: Really minimize any kind of sugary drink intake, and of 173 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: course focus on what we always talk about, which is 174 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: the seven to ten serves of fresh fruit and veggies 175 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: and those simple sort of hard steps and cleaning up 176 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: the diet will go a long way in reducing disease 177 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: risk and hopefully helping you to live a long and 178 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: healthy life. But if you do want to do your 179 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: own calculation score, you can go to the Harvard website 180 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 1: and look under the Harvard Diet Plan and calculate it yourself. 181 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: It's quite interesting lyne. 182 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 2: And as well as focusing on the veggies and the fruit, 183 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 2: I'll just round us out by saying the whole grains matter, nuts, legumes, 184 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 2: vegetable type protein sources like tofu, of course, fishing, salmon, 185 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: and some of our healthy fats like extrovert and olive 186 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: oil and avocado. They all help to give you more 187 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 2: points towards the scoring system as well. Now doing a 188 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: little review, we've obviously changed the format of our podcast today, Susie, 189 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 2: so we just sort of talk about one new interesting 190 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 2: product that we found at the supermarket. And this week 191 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 2: I wanted to chat about a vegetable juice. And we know, 192 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,839 Speaker 2: or hopefully our listeners know that often a lot of 193 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 2: the vegetable juices in the supermarket or in the juice 194 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 2: bars are often really just fruit juices with a little 195 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 2: bit of spinach or a little bit of kales thrown 196 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 2: in for good measure. So to come across one at 197 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 2: the supermarket where a couple of vegetables added, and in 198 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: fact this one has two point eight serves of vegetables, Susie, 199 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: this is one of the best commercially made veggie juices 200 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: I've actually seen, which is really great. So it's the 201 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 2: original juice veggie goodness, spinach, zucchini and kale. So it 202 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 2: comes in a liter bottle. It retails for six dollars 203 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 2: that will work, so it's not I wouldn't say it's 204 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 2: a budget friendly option. But I really do think that 205 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 2: if you're someone who doesn't love vegetables, it is a 206 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: good way to get it in. And in my opinion, 207 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 2: this is better than having something like a greens powder. 208 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: We could ask a lot of questions about greens powder, 209 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 2: but at least you're getting more nutrients from the actual 210 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 2: vegetables themselves. We're always food first. If you can't eat 211 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,959 Speaker 2: the food in its whole form, fine juice it, get 212 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: it down how you can, and then lastly would come 213 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 2: something like a green's powder. So the original veggie juice 214 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 2: contains sixty eight percent yellow carrot juice, followed by sixteen 215 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 2: percent cloudy pair, followed by three and a half percent 216 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 2: of zucchini puraid two and a half percent of kale pure. 217 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: We've also got some lemon juice in there, some food acid, 218 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 2: and some vitamin C. So out of those ingredients usy 219 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 2: a super clean ingredient panel. We've got carrot juice, pay out, zucchini, kale, 220 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: and lemon juice. So three different types of vegetables in there, 221 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: with a bit of pair just to make it that 222 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 2: little bit more palatable, and two point eight serves of 223 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: vegetables overall, which I think is fabulous. So a serving 224 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 2: size the company is considered as two fifty mils, so 225 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 2: a cup. So per cup, we've got three hundred and 226 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: thirty eight kilo dules, zero grams of protein, zerograms of fat, 227 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 2: which we would expect, fourteen grams of carbohydrates. That's naturally 228 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: occurring carbohydrates, with all fourteen of that being fourteen grams 229 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: of sugar. So the bulk of that is coming from 230 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: the pear juice, but also a little bit out of 231 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 2: the carrot and some of the lemon juice as well. 232 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: I haven't listened any nitary fiber on the label. I haven't 233 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: actually tried this one, I must admit from a palatability perspective, 234 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: but it might be one of those really strained juices, 235 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 2: or I assume it would have a little bit of 236 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 2: fiber content in there anyway. But you're absolutely going to 237 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 2: always do best having the real deal. But I did 238 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: think that this was a great one that you can 239 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: kind of pop into the soupermarket and see if even 240 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 2: if your kids can have a little bit, you know, 241 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 2: water down if they find it a little bit sort 242 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 2: of too much. But I think it's a great way 243 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 2: to get in a couple of extra serves and veggies 244 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 2: for the whole family. 245 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: I love veggie juices. Now if you go to the 246 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: juice bars, they're sort of seven eight dollars, but I'll 247 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: often get a green juice or a beetsroot celery carrot, 248 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: and I actually encourage any of my clients who have 249 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: high blood pressure to include a beetroot juice each day. 250 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: I think it's a really great way to get a 251 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: concentrated source of antioxidants. And you're right. For kids who 252 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: aren't great veggie eaters and if they're happy to have 253 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: a green juice, I think it's a great choice. But 254 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan, and I think that it can 255 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: be a great nutritious addition to the diet and quite 256 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: different to a fruit based juice. They're not inexpensive, but 257 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: this is you're right, one of the best relations I've seen. 258 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: I also like quite like the V eight green and 259 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: beech reot juice in the long life section, but I 260 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: think this is actually in the fridge section. This one. 261 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: It's not long mind, yeah, but I haven't seen it. 262 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: I think it's a great find, and yeah, you know, 263 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: I sort of recommend it almost as a medicinal shot 264 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: like that's based on two fifty meal. I usually get 265 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: my clients to have say one hundred and one fifty, 266 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: just to keep the carbs under control a bit. But 267 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: I have no issue with it, and my personally Leanne, 268 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: find that they're much better if you have them with 269 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: ice really iced up. They're much more refreshing. I was 270 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: going to say, coming into winter, a great way to 271 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: boost your intake of key nutrients, including vitamin C, and 272 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: also for anyone recovering from long COVID a ED juice 273 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: is a great addition. All right. Well, for our final 274 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: segment of the show, Leanne, Now I Leanne and I 275 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: both cook regularly, and we're going to start to share 276 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: a lot more of what we're cooking at home. Now, 277 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: Leanne has cooked up something very warm and nourishing for 278 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: the Pooler days. Now, I can't say it would probably 279 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: be on the top of my list, but Leanne is 280 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: a big fan. So what are we encouraging everyone to 281 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: make this week? 282 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 2: Land Look, I know you're not a fan of the 283 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 2: beans and the leaguiames, but for health over all of 284 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 2: the best things we can do. So these are some 285 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 2: healthy sausage rolls, healthy sausage rolls, so they're vegetarian based. 286 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 2: There's no meat in them. I'm not obviously a big 287 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 2: fan of sausage rolls. It's got the type of meat 288 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 2: that we don't really want in there for good health, 289 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 2: and of course a lot of fat coming from the 290 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 2: pup pastry. So there's a couple of things we can 291 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: do to make this healthier overall. But I made these, 292 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 2: and even David and his mum had some and they 293 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: were like, these are delicious ones in these. So the 294 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: recipes from taste dot com they called cheesy vegetarian sausage rolls. 295 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 2: They actually added a little bit of vegemie in here, 296 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 2: which I didn't add to mine. But the basic ingredients 297 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: are olive oil, brown onion, and garlic. They added vegemite. 298 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: I thought that was weird, so I left it out, 299 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 2: chili flags and a couple of spices. Then they've added mushrooms, 300 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 2: grated sweet potato, and tin of brown lentils. I also 301 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 2: grated up some carracters zucchini to get in some extra vegetables. 302 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: You cook all the veggie up, then you stir through 303 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 2: some cheese, make it nice and cheesy. Then you put 304 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 2: it between some pup pastry. You roll it up, you 305 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 2: brush it with egg on top, and you bake your 306 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 2: sausage rolls basically, so they're healthier kind of vegetarian sausage roles. 307 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: You're getting in more fiber, far less red meat based protein, 308 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 2: so it's good for your health. But it's still high 309 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 2: protein with the lentils and the cheese as well. Super 310 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 2: super delicious susie, really really tasty. And to make them 311 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 2: a little bit better, I added obviously more grated veggie 312 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: to boost the veggie intake, which I thought was great. 313 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 2: And if you're really concerned about you know, puff pastry 314 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 2: is quite heavy. It is quite high calorie, quite high fat. 315 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: If you use something like a Philo pastry instead, you 316 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 2: can actually save yourself a huge whack of calories as well, 317 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: so much better from a health perspective. But if you've 318 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: got little kids who are struggling to eat well, struggling 319 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 2: to gain weight by all means, use a puff pastry. 320 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 2: But if you're someone who's trying to monitor or lose 321 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 2: body fat, you're probably far better off swapping to a 322 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 2: Philo pastry. 323 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: I think they did look delicious, absolutely they did. Can 324 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: I ask you though, what was MIA's thoughts on them, Leanne, 325 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: You can't. 326 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 2: That's not fair. She's going through her fussy eating toddlers steage. 327 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 2: She flung it off the high chair a hard note. 328 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: It was a hard note from Maya.
