I'm going to revamp a weight loss info sheet I made for pts with the following:
Keep a food journal. People who keep a food journal lose more weight than people who don't. Pay attention to the ingredients and nutrition labels on the food you eat. Avoid foods with added sugars, artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup. Avoid sugary beverages (juice, soda).
Eat more whole foods and fewer processed foods. Whole foods don't have labels. Think about trying to eat mostly or only the foods that you could grow in a garden or catch yourself (vegetables, fruits; and if you eat meat, lean meats like turkey, chicken, and seafood). Avoid the middle aisles in the grocery store with processed foods (e.g., crackers, chips, snack foods).
Focus on macronutrients rather than counting calories.
Prioritize complete proteins. Aim for 1.5 g protein/kg daily. One kg = 2.2 lbs.
At 141 lbs, I'm basically 64 kg, so I need 96 g protein a day.
Can start with 30 g of protein per meal. Eat protein before eating other food groups of your meal.
Eat healthy fats: omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish like salmon and tuna). Omega-9 fatty acids (found in olives, avocados and their oils). Unprocessed omega-6 fatty acids (nuts, seeds, and their butters). Avoid processed seed and vegetable oils (canola, corn, cottonseed, soybean, sunflower, safflower, grapeseed, rice bran), which are high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). PUFAs can increase the inflammatory response in your body and affect insulin.
There are 3 main types of carbs: starch, sugar, and fiber. Starch and sugar will spike your blood sugar. Go for high fiber, low starch carbohydrate foods found in vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, peppers, cucumbers, zucchini.
Eat low glycemic fruits like blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, avocados, coconuts, olives.
Eat smaller portions of grains and legumes (brown rice, quinoa, beans, and lentils). Try to eat grains later in your meal to avoid blood sugar spikes. Prioritize healthy proteins, fat, and vegetables over grains. Eat meals in this order: protein, fat, carbs. This will help maintain normal blood sugar levels and avoid spikes.
You can take 1-2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 30 minutes before your main meal of the day. This can lower the post-meal blood glucose levels. Caution: apple cider vinegar is very acidic and can negatively affect your teeth.
Families who eat meals together eat less than those who don't. Focus on the meal instead of watching TV. Chew your food more. Savor it. Pause to drink water. Bake, grill, and sauté instead of frying. If you don't have time for meal preparation, try easy steam in microwave vegetables (no sauces added) or pre-chopped vegetables you can buy at the grocery store. If you can afford it, try a meal prep program with healthy options that delivers to you.
Fast for a minimum of 12 hours a day (e.g., 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.). Give yourself 3 hours between bed time and your last meal. This allows your body time to process food rather than to store it as fat. Your body is less insulin sensitive at night so, aim to eat carbohydrates earlier in the day and fewer carbs at night. Your age, sex, menopausal status, time of your menstrual cycle, activity levels, etc. will affect how you should eat.
Reduce snacking/grazing and eat 2 to 3 meals a day. Try taking a (no sugar added) fiber supplement (with plenty of water) instead of eating a snack. This has been shown to reduce weight by 10 lbs in those taking a daily fiber supplement instead of eating snack food over the course of 3 months. Fiber helps you feel full and eat less. Drink plenty of water with fiber supplements.
Drink more water. Drink a cup of water before you eat. Pause in the middle of your meal to drink some water. Wait 20 minutes and see how you feel. It takes time for the satiety hormones to take effect. This may help decrease overeating if you give yourself more time between bites to realize whether you feel full. If you feel full, stop eating.
Avoid added sugars in beverages. Avoid artificial sweeteners (e.g., aspartame). Artificial sweeteners affect the gut and brain. Splenda is sweeter than normal sugar. It can reset the brain to crave sweeter and sweeter beverages than if you had just added real sugar to your coffee instead (but not too much sugar). Stevia is a healthier sugar substitute.
Change your lifestyle. Exercising for weight loss requires activities that increase your heart rate and keep it up for the duration of your activity. So walking the dog is good, but it is not the same as you going for an independent power walk with the goal of maintaining 80% of your expected maximal heart rate for 30 minutes straight. Weight bearing exercises force your muscles to pull on the bones and will help burn fat and strengthen bones. Women should do weight bearing exercises as well. Weight training increases your metabolic rate and will help you burn fat.
Find ways to build exercise into your day. Wake up 1 hour early to exercise before getting ready for work. If you have an hour-long lunch break, take 30 minutes of it to power walk outside. Spend 10 minutes walking up and down the stairs three times a day--that's 30 minutes if exercise right there! Keep a pair of 3-lb dumbbells at your desk and do a 10-minute dumbbell routine during down time. Get a standing desk and stand more than you sit. Get a treadmill with a desk so you can walk while you use your laptop. Stay for an hour after work to walk around the building and you can avoid rush hour traffic and get your steps in. Walk fast like you're running late for a meeting. Keep a treadmill in view of the TV so you can walk while you watch a 2-hour movie. Forty minutes after you eat dinner, power walk or ride a bike for half an hour. Even if you feel like you're not seeing the results of your efforts--do not stop! Make exercise a daily habit for health and wellness regardless of your weight or body shape! If you can afford it, get a Planet Fitness membership (it's only $10 a month; they have fitness trainers who can help you learn how to exercise). Try your local YMCA.
Choose foods you can eat and exercises that you can do for the rest of your life. These lifestyle modifications will help you maintain your weight loss.
Sleep is also very important. Don't stay up too late. Go to bed at the same time every day. Avoid looking at screens for 2 hours before bed time. Aim for at least 7 hours of sleep a night. Even with a good diet and exercise regimen, it can be hard to lose weight and maintain weight loss if you do not get adequate sleep.

Omega-6 Fatty Acids: A Comprehensive Guide to the Good, the Bad, and the Balanced
Tumblr media
Omega-6 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fat that is essential for human health. They play a role in a variety of bodily functions, including inflammation, blood pressure, and blood clotting. However, too much omega-6 fatty acids can lead to inflammation and other health problems.
The Good
Omega-6 fatty acids are necessary for the production of prostaglandins, which are hormone-like substances that regulate a variety of bodily functions. Prostaglandins can be both beneficial and harmful, depending on the type. For example, some prostaglandins help to reduce inflammation, while others promote inflammation.
Tumblr media
Omega-6 fatty acids also play a role in cell growth and development, and they are important for the health of the skin, hair, and nails. Additionally, omega-6 fatty acids are a source of energy for the body.
The Bad
While omega-6 fatty acids are essential for human health, too much can lead to inflammation. Inflammation is a normal process that helps the body to heal from injury and infection. However, chronic inflammation can lead to a number of health problems, including heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and arthritis.
The Western diet is typically high in omega-6 fatty acids and low in omega-3 fatty acids. This imbalance can lead to inflammation and other health problems. Omega-6 fatty acids are often found in processed foods and unhealthy vegetable oils, such as soybean oil, corn oil, and canola oil.
Tumblr media
The Balanced
The key to getting the most out of omega-6 fatty acids is to consume them in moderation. The following tips can help you to achieve a healthy balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in your diet:
Choose healthy sources of omega-6 fatty acids, such as walnuts, almonds, and flaxseeds. These foods contain a type of omega-6 fatty acid called alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which is less inflammatory than other types of omega-6 fatty acids.
Limit your intake of processed foods, which are often high in unhealthy omega-6 fatty acids.
Increase your intake of omega-3 fatty acids, which can help to reduce inflammation. Good sources of omega-3 fatty acids include fatty fish, such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel, as well as flaxseeds and chia seeds.
Aim for a ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids of 4:1 or less. This can be difficult to achieve with the typical Western diet, but it is important to make an effort to get as close as possible.
Tumblr media
Additional Tips
Here are some additional tips for reducing your intake of omega-6 fatty acids and increasing your intake of omega-3 fatty acids:
Cook with healthy oils, such as olive oil or avocado oil.
Avoid fried foods.
Eat more whole foods, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds.
Choose grass-fed beef and lamb instead of grain-fed beef and lamb.
Take an omega-3 supplement if you don't eat fatty fish regularly.
By following these tips, you can help to ensure that you are getting a healthy balance of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids in your diet.
Conclusion
Omega-6 fatty acids are an essential part of a healthy diet. However, it is important to consume them in moderation and to balance your intake with omega-3 fatty acids. By following the tips above, you can help to ensure that you are getting the most out of omega-6 fatty acids and reducing your risk of chronic diseases.

How Omega-6 Fatty Acids Affect Your Mood (And What You Can Do About It)
Omega-6 fatty acids are polyunsaturated fatty acids that are essential for human health. They are found in a variety of foods, including vegetable oils, nuts and seeds, fatty fish, and meat and poultry. Omega-6 fatty acids play a role in many important bodily functions, including cell growth, inflammation, and hormone production.
There is growing evidence that omega-6 fatty acids may also play a role in mood. For example, one study found that people with higher levels of omega-6 fatty acids in their blood were more likely to experience symptoms of depression and anxiety. Another study found that taking omega-6 fatty acid supplements improved mood in people with depression.
The exact mechanism by which omega-6 fatty acids affect mood is not fully understood. However, it is thought that they may do so by:
* Affecting the production of neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine
* Reducing inflammation in the brain
* Promoting the growth and repair of nerve cells
It is important to note that the research on the relationship between omega-6 fatty acids and mood is still ongoing. More research is needed to determine the optimal intake of omega-6 fatty acids for mood health.
However, there are some things you can do to make sure you are getting a healthy balance of omega-6 fatty acids in your diet:
* Choose plant-based oils that are high in monounsaturated fats, such as olive oil and avocado oil.
* Limit your intake of processed foods, which are often high in omega-6 fatty acids and inflammatory ingredients.
* Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
* Include fatty fish in your diet at least two times per week.
* Consider taking an omega-3 fatty acid supplement. Omega-3 fatty acids can help to balance the effects of omega-6 fatty acids in the body.
If you are concerned about your mood or mental health, talk to your doctor. They can help you to assess your diet and lifestyle and make recommendations to improve your overall health and well-being.

In our thinking about different kinds of human societies across history I feel like there is a major category that gets lost in the traditional Hunter-Gatherer/Nomadic Pastoralist/ Sedentary Farmer narrative
These people tend to primarily be sedentary Farmers, but they are mislabeled Hunter Gatherers more often than not, often called Agro foresters and or forest gardeners or tropical home gardeners , these are sedentary people who grow and manage ( mostly perennial )crops as there primary source of food, but haven’t begun to focus primarily on the production of Annual crops, particularly grains, and they tended to be relatively polycultural and less monocultural compared to modern crop growth, and often without domestic livestock .
These were the people who domesticated bottle gourd and figs long before the 8 traditional “ first crops” ( Emmer wheat, Einkorn wheat, barley, lentils, peas, chickpeas, flax and bitter vetch), these were the Mesolithic people of Europe who lived on there hazelnuts orchards, these are Murnong eating farmers of aboriginal Australia, these are the Yam based societies of west africa, these are Sugar cane domesticating farmers of the New guinea highlands, and the assorted Taro, Coconut, and Bread fruit growing communities across the Pacific Islands, These were the Jomon people of stone age Japan who supplemented there chestnut cultivation with more familiar soybeans, red mung beans, peaches, and hemp, these are the spice producers of the Sri Lankan Kandyan forest gardens, these are the Masehual of Puebla Mexico with there Kuojtakiloyan “forest that produces” that mixes exotic mangos, bananas, macadamias, cinnamon and citrus alongside american plants like sapote, avocado and sweet potatoes, These are the assorted northern Andes peoples who’s shamans kept the seven species of Angels Trumpet flower alive long after there extinction in the wild for there psychoactive properties, and these were “lost” Amazonians whose society was collapsed by smallpox with there famed Terra Pretra soil,
Something I haven’t mentioned is “Fire-Stick” farming, the use of fire by hunter gatherers to create meadowland to improve grazing habitat for deer or kangaroos, and encourage edible plants crowded out by other trees and shrubs, well documented in Precolonial Australia and The Americas and Mesolithic Europe. I tried to focus on clearer examples, of people who managed plants species in a more individualistic way than merely burning the entire area to change the whole ecosystem , I’m not talking merely about hunter gatherers that sometimes do controlled burns, though I think theres a fair argument there that the deliberate attempt to alter the environment to benefit useful plants and animals warrants them being distinguished from true Hunter gatherers as well, obviously the categories are always gonna be a little blurry
Anyway, instead of 3 , I think you should maybe think of there being 4 maybe 5 kinds of human society, gatherers, shepherds, gardeners/orchardists?, farmers, and potentially burners. Either that or internalize that the people listed above are farmers not Hunter Gatherers.

The Power of Omega 3-6-9: The Essential Fatty Acids for Optimal Health
In the intricate dance of nutrition, fats often get a bad rap. Yet, not all fats are created equal. Enter the omega 3-6-9 fatty acids – a trio of essential fats that play a crucial role in maintaining our health. Understanding their benefits, sources, and how to balance them in your diet can transform your wellbeing. Let’s dive into the world of omega fatty acids and discover why they deserve a spotlight in your dietary regimen.
Tumblr media
What Are Omega Fatty Acids?
Omega fatty acids are polyunsaturated fats that our bodies need but cannot produce on their own. They must be obtained through diet. The numbers 3, 6, and 9 refer to the position of the first double bond in their molecular structure, which influences their function in the body.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Known for their anti-inflammatory properties, omega-3s are pivotal for brain health, heart function, and overall cellular health. The primary types of omega-3s are ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). ALA is found in plant oils, while EPA and DHA are abundant in marine oils.
Omega-6 Fatty Acids: These fats are essential for growth and development, as well as maintaining skin health. However, they can promote inflammation if consumed in excess, particularly in the absence of sufficient omega-3s. The most common omega-6 fatty acid is linoleic acid, found in vegetable oils like corn, soybean, and sunflower oil.
Omega-9 Fatty Acids: While not essential (since the body can produce them), omega-9s still offer significant health benefits, such as improving heart health and supporting a healthy immune system. Oleic acid, found in olive oil and avocados, is the most well-known omega-9 fatty acid.
The Benefits of Omega 3-6-9 Fatty Acids
1. Heart Health: Omega-3s, particularly EPA and DHA, are known to reduce the risk of heart disease. They lower blood pressure, reduce triglycerides, and prevent plaque buildup in arteries. Omega-6s, when balanced with omega-3s, also contribute to heart health by helping to regulate cholesterol levels.
2. Brain Function and Mental Health: DHA is a crucial component of brain cell membranes, and adequate intake is linked to improved cognitive function and a lower risk of neurodegenerative diseases. Omega-3s have also been shown to alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.
3. Inflammation and Joint Health: Omega-3s have potent anti-inflammatory effects, which can help reduce chronic inflammation linked to conditions like arthritis. Omega-6s can be pro-inflammatory, but in balanced amounts, they support the immune response and healing processes.
4. Skin Health: Both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are essential for maintaining skin health. They help maintain the skin’s lipid barrier, keeping it hydrated and protecting against environmental damage.
5. Metabolism and Weight Management: Omega-9s have been shown to boost energy levels, support metabolic health, and aid in weight management by promoting satiety and reducing unhealthy fat accumulation.
Finding the Right Balance
One of the key aspects of reaping the benefits of omega fatty acids is maintaining the right balance, particularly between omega-3 and omega-6. Modern diets often tip the scales heavily in favour of omega-6, due to the high consumption of processed foods and vegetable oils. This imbalance can lead to increased inflammation and a higher risk of chronic diseases.
Aim for a balanced intake:
Increase consumption of omega-3 rich foods: fatty fish (such as salmon, mackerel, and sardines), flaxseeds, chia seeds, walnuts, and algae-based supplements.
Moderate intake of omega-6 sources: use vegetable oils sparingly and opt for whole food sources like nuts and seeds.
Include omega-9 rich foods: incorporate olive oil, avocados, and nuts into your diet.
Practical Tips to Incorporate Omega 3-6-9 into Your Diet
1. Eat Fatty Fish Twice a Week: Incorporating fish like salmon, mackerel, or sardines into your meals twice a week can significantly boost your omega-3 intake.
2. Use Flaxseeds and Chia Seeds: Sprinkle these seeds on your yoghurt, oatmeal, or salads. They are rich in ALA, a type of omega-3.
3. Cook with Olive Oil: Swap out vegetable oils for olive oil in your cooking to increase your intake of omega-9 fatty acids.
4. Snack on Nuts: Almonds and walnuts make for great snacks that provide a good mix of omega-3, 6, and 9 fatty acids.
5. Consider Supplements: If dietary intake is insufficient, you can implement Supremo ULTIMATE OMEGA 3-6-9.
SUPREMO BENEFITS OF ULTIMATE OMEGA 3-6-9
Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-9: The Essential Trio for Optimal Health
Omega-3: Heart Health and Beyond
Omega-3 fatty acids are vital for heart health, helping to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases by lowering blood pressure, reducing triglycerides, and preventing plaque buildup in arteries.
They play a crucial role in maintaining brain health, as they are essential components of brain cell membranes, thereby supporting cognitive performance and reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.
Omega-3s are known for their powerful anti-inflammatory properties, which contribute to overall joint health, reducing symptoms of arthritis and other inflammatory conditions.
Omega-6: Balancing Inflammation and Growth
Omega-6 fatty acids support the body’s growth and development, particularly in maintaining healthy skin and hair.
When consumed in balanced amounts with omega-3s, omega-6s help regulate cholesterol levels, contributing to cardiovascular well-being.
They are essential for immune cell function, supporting the body's natural defence mechanisms and maintaining a healthy immune system.
Omega-9: Cholesterol Management and More
Omega-9 fatty acids are beneficial for heart health by promoting healthy cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
They support joint health by reducing inflammation and improving mobility.
Omega-9s aid in maintaining a robust immune system, supporting the body's ability to fight off infections and diseases.

41 Vegan Breakfast Meals to Gain Weight
Tumblr media
You need to have a meal plan that contains foods high in protein, healthy fats, and whole carbohydrates if you want to gain weight the proper way.
As a result, I’ve tried to include meals that strike the proper balance between flavor and nutrients in my list of plant-based breakfast ideas to help you gain weight.
Making sure you consume enough calories each day is a part of this. Whether you’ve been eating vegan for a short period or a long time, it’s crucial to make sure your nutritional requirements are covered.
When switching to a plant-based diet, many people lose weight, often accidentally, due to cutting out high-calorie items like meat, dairy, and other animal-based foods.
Track your calorie intake and add 250-500 calories to your current calorie intake.
Include protein at every meal and Choose High-calorie High-protein foods.
Eat more meals and snacks throughout the day. (Try to eat 5-6 meals a day.)
Don’t forget about healthy fats.
Exercise regularly. Exercise helps to stimulate muscle growth and repair.
Don’t forget the snacks
A filling breakfast like stuffed avocado toast, tofu scramble with vegetables and a side of baked potatoes or sweet potatoes, or overnight oatmeal topped with fruit, nuts, nut butter, and seeds like flax or chia are some of my favorite ways to start the day.
I make sure I eat enough food every day, among other things, by putting healthy fats like nut butter, olive oil, avocados, etc. in my diet.
If you enjoy smoothies as much as I do, you may up the calorie count of your favorites by adding some peanut butter, almond spread, hemp seeds, or vegan protein powder.
Lunchtime favorites include sandwiches and wraps with a cup of soup or a side salad.
Chickpea salad on a sandwich or wrap is a fantastic option and also happens to be one of my kids’ favorite meals for school.
I enjoy having a substantial serving of whole grains for dinner, such as brown rice or quinoa, along with tofu or tempeh, beans, or hummus, as well as a lot of vegetables, and I like to finish it off with roasted pumpkin or seeds of sunflower or toasted seeds of sesame. Also legume-based pasta like chickpea or lentil may make a filling meal.
If you’re following a vegan diet and hoping to gain weight or, like me, you exercise and want to build muscle or keep it off, there are many delicious and fulfilling methods to up your daily calorie intake.
This collection offers some excellent high-calorie vegan morning food suggestions to get you going.
Tofu: One of the best options is black pea or chickpea tofu to get your daily protein. Which you can add to breakfast sandwiches and salads
Homemade vegan cheese: You can make vegan cheeses at home using cashews, sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds. Spread it on breakfast and serve it with walnuts, tomatoes and cucumbers.
Tempeh: Tempeh is a mildly nutty food made from slightly fermented soybeans.
Chickpeas: You may roast them, make hummus out of them, or create pancakes and waffles using chickpea flour.
Hemp seeds: Hemp seeds are simple to incorporate into smoothies or to sprinkle over toast.
You can use soy milk in coffee, oatmeal, cereal, and smoothies.
Oats: A great approach to increase your diet’s protein intake is by eating oatmeal. Oatmeal can also be supplemented with additional ingredients like soymilk, seeds, almonds, or almond butter.
Nut Butter: You can put nut butter on toast, pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, and smoothies.
Chia Seeds: Use these to make a delicious chia pudding, as well as smoothies, baked goods, and porridge.
Seitan: Seitan is a high-protein, wheat-based meat substitute. You can slice and grill seitan and add it to breakfast wraps or salads. Lentils: Lentils are rich in protein and fiber. You can add cooked lentils to oatmeal or use them to make pancakes and cakes. Also, Iranian breakfast lentil soup is great for breakfast.
Beans: One of the best sources of protein for vegetarians is beans. You can add baked beans to burritos, bowls, or breakfast salads.
Nuts : Nuts are an excellent source of protein, fiber and healthy fats. You can add them to oatmeal, salads and smoothies. To increase your daily weight, include 5 almonds or walnuts in your breakfast.
The traditional rolled oats are no-cooked overnight and are served cold. To keep this dish vegan, prepare it with water or plant-based milk; omit the honey or replace it with agave nectar instead.
Combine your preferred ingredients with your overnight oats. You can substitute any of your preferred high-protein toppings, such as chopped almonds and banana slices, for the fresh strawberries and sliced almonds that are called for in this particular recipe.

VITAMIN E AND THE DAMAGING EFFECT OF FREE RADICALS
Vitamin E has many uses in the body to stay healthy. It is one of the groups of fat-soluble compound. Its chemical compound has anti-oxidant property responsible for the protection of damaging free radicals when the immune system failed to give their over-all support.  
Vitamin E was composed of many chemical forms like delta tocopherol, beta, gamma and alpha, delta tocopherol and beta gamma. Each one of them has specific biological activity in the body.
The presence of free radicals is the effect of polluted environment (air pollution) from industrial fumes, vehicle smoke emission, cigarette smoke and other toxic chemicals in the manufacture of industrial products and consumer goods. The ultraviolet radiation of the sun invites free radicals to damage the human cells.
Vitamin E gives human cells enough protection against harmful effect of free radicals. Once the cells are damaged, many major diseases appear. It was found that it causes terminal cancers and cardiovascular diseases.
Vitamin E stops the production of reactive oxygen species especially if the fat goes into oxidative process. With vitamin E, it assists prevention of chronic diseases. Once the immune system is affected, the entire body system is vulnerable and under the mercy of free radicals. To remove it from the body if it is already penetrated deep in the cells is quite impossible.
Its anti-inflammatory agents inhibit platelet aggregation. It enhance the immune system to defend from the attack to the cells and keep it healthy. With regulr intake of vitamin E (fruits, vegetables, nuts and other dietary foods including supplements prevents or delay coronary heart and cardiovascular diseases.

Diet and breast cancer
Tumblr media
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Breast cancer is diagnosed in 1 in 8 women and 1 in 5 women under the age of 50. If you're postmenopausal or overweight, you're at a higher risk of breast cancer, so you should be at a healthy weight. For that, you need to eat and exercise that is suitable for your condition. Breast cancer diet is suitable. Finally, we discuss the right or wrong of certain foods and their relationship to breast cancer.
The Importance of a Balanced Diet in Breast Cancer Patients
A healthy diet is important for everyone, but if you have breast cancer, you should be more careful about what you eat. Following a balanced diet during and after breast cancer treatment can greatly help improve patients' quality of life and better control the disease.
The foods we mention can form a balanced diet that prevents the development of breast cancer:
A wide variety of colored fruits and vegetables such as garlic, onions, ginger, soybeans, carrots, cabbage, parsley, capsicum, cabbage family and Moringa (especially the roots of this plant, which of course should be consumed under the supervision of a doctor) Foods rich in fiber such as whole grains, legumes and beans Consumption of low-fat milk and dairy products, preferably probiotics Foods rich in vitamin D Foods, especially spices with anti-inflammatory properties, such as turmeric, which prevent the growth of cancerous cells. Green tea with many antioxidant properties instead of caffeinated drinks Use of organic food and not supplements A study of 91,000 women found that following a diet rich in vegetables (about two-thirds) could reduce the risk of developing breast cancer by 15%. Researchers recommend consuming about 8 to 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Among other properties, fruits and vegetables are rich in carotenoids and flavonoids, which have countless medicinal properties. Proper nutrition to prevent breast cancer Research shows that taking into account the diet you must follow with breast cancer and, of course, the aforementioned fruits and vegetables can prevent breast cancer from occurring. dark leafy vegetables paprika tomato eggplant citrus Carrot broccoli onion apple pear peach strawberry Cabbage family Moringa fiber Fiber's positive effects on the digestive system and support of the elimination process help the body rid itself of toxins and their harmful effects.Whole grains and legumes contain antioxidants that help prevent many diseases. It also contains substances. Nutritionists recommend consuming 30-45 grams of fiber daily. obesity Not all fats are bad, researchers say. Fats in processed foods, trans fats in fried foods, and trans fats in some crackers, candies, and donuts can be threatening. Reduce your consumption of saturated fats found in red meats, solid animal oils and hydrogenated oils and replace them with good fats (unsaturated fats) found in olive oil, avocados, nuts and seeds. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids found in cold-water fish such as salmon and herring help prevent breast cancer. foods harmful to breast cancer alcohol There is strong evidence that alcohol consumption may increase the risk of breast cancer. It's estimated that up to 22% of breast cancers can be prevented by stopping drinking. Researchers have found a direct relationship between regular alcohol consumption and breast cancer. Studies show that alcohol can raise estrogen levels and damage cellular DNA. The researchers also said that women who drank alcohol three times a week had a 15% increased risk of developing breast cancer, and this increased risk increased by 10% for each additional day. sugar Studies in mice have shown that high sugar intake causes tumors in the mammary glands, and these tumors tend to metastasize and spread. Other restricted foods: White bread red meat caffeine Estrogen and plant estrogen sources such as soy Sesame cumin linseed licorice Breast Cancer Nutrition Facts and Myths dairy products and breast cancer In most Asian countries, the incidence of breast cancer is lower than in Western countries. One factor that has received a lot of attention is the consumption and type of dairy products. Some believe that the high consumption of milk and dairy products in Western countries contributes to the high incidence of breast cancer, and that the hormones in milk are to blame. However, the eating habits and lifestyles of Asian women are very different from those of the West. But what does science say about this? Scientific studies have yet to confirm strong evidence for an association between dairy products and breast cancer, and have not shown dairy products to be a possible factor in increasing breast cancer risk. Contrary to popular belief, cows in the EU are less likely to develop breast cancer because they are not injected with hormones to produce their milk and because their milk contains lower levels of natural hormones. soybeans and breast cancer As for soy, there are both claims that soy increases the risk of breast cancer and claims that it lowers the risk. But what does science say about this? Soybeans naturally contain plant compounds based on phytoestrogens, which are structurally similar to the female hormone estrogen. Estrogen can attach to cells of some types of breast cancer (ER-positive) and stimulate them to proliferate. High estrogen levels increase the risk of breast cancer. Therefore, it has been suggested that eating soy as part of the diet may increase estrogen levels in humans, but this is not the case. Interestingly, soy phytoestrogens can prevent estrogen from binding to some breast cancer cells, slowing their growth.The largest population survey in the region was conducted in China. A study conducted at the Shanghai Women's Health Research Center examined the health and dietary intake of soy among more than 70,000 Chinese women. Soybean consumption in China is significantly higher than in the United States. Many Chinese are lactose intolerant, so they are fed milk and soy during childhood. In addition, other types of soybeans such as tofu and edamame are part of the traditional Chinese diet. superfoods and breast cancer You may have seen or heard in the media that certain foods rich in the nutrients your body needs may help reduce cancer. And as far as science goes: The term superfood has no legal definition and cannot be used on food stamps.No single food can meet all of the body's needs. Just because a food can kill cancer cells grown in a bowl in a lab doesn't mean eating too much of that food will protect you from cancer. And even with that settling in, we're naturally depriving our bodies of various nutrients and plant compounds. Binge eaters suffer from diets high in calories, saturated fat, sugar, salt, and alcohol, as well as diets that are overweight and unhealthy. You can't fight a low activity diet. Finally, we concluded that overweight, obesity, menopause, physical inactivity, and alcohol consumption are the main factors that increase the risk of breast cancer. nutrition and genetics Foods have been shown to be harmful or beneficial, depending on what mutations are involved in a person's cancer. For example, coffee may benefit people with BRCA1/2 mutations, depending on the genotype of other genes. Patients with BRCA-associated breast cancer respond well to a diet containing resveratrol I3C DIM and genistein. These substances are found in large amounts in superfoods and you can spot these things with the help of a genetic counselor who is also knowledgeable in the field of nutrition so you can determine what kind of mutation you have. And you can get the right diet according to your physical condition. Read the full article

Protein is a vital component of our body, composed of various amino acids. These amino acids serve as energy sources for muscle and bone development, as well as the production of essential enzymes and hormones necessary for proper bodily functions. L-Arginine, one such amino acid, plays a crucial role in protein synthesis.
The human body naturally produces L-Arginine in adequate amounts, and it is also found abundantly in protein-rich foods such as meat, fish, eggs, soy, and nuts. However, supplementing with L-Arginine is often preferred to ensure an additional source of this essential amino acid for the body.
Tumblr media

They are known to improve blood flow, support heart health by alleviating chest pain, high blood pressure, and weakness. L-Arginine is also considered a beneficial supplement for weight loss, erectile dysfunction, immune system enhancement, and athletic performance. Moreover, it is commonly utilized by fitness enthusiasts to aid in muscle growth and bodybuilding.

Key Benefits of L-ARGININE for Your Body
L-Arginine offers a multitude of benefits for your overall well-being. While it naturally occurs in many foods we consume, some individuals choose to take L-Arginine supplements to harness its potential advantages. Let's explore the top six benefits of L-Arginine in detail:
Improved Erectile Function: Research has shown that L-Arginine enhances nitric oxide production, leading to blood vessel relaxation and increased blood flow to the penis, thereby aiding in maintaining erections. Men with lower levels of L-Arginine and L-citrulline, another amino acid, have been found to experience erectile dysfunction. Hence, L-Arginine supplementation can be beneficial in such cases.
Promotes Cardiovascular Health: L-Arginine's ability to enhance blood circulation and relax blood vessels makes it a valuable remedy for various cardiovascular conditions. It helps regulate blood pressure and addresses many heart-related issues effectively.
Enhances Fertility: Surprisingly, L-Arginine is used in the treatment of fertility issues in both men and women. Its benefits include increased blood flow to the uterus, ovaries, and genitals, elevated nitric oxide levels, improved sperm count, support for cervical muscle production, and heightened libido for both sexes. These factors contribute to successful conception and can be facilitated by L-Arginine supplementation.
Lowers Hypertension: Clinical studies have confirmed the blood pressure-lowering properties of L-Arginine. It not only counteracts hypertension but also reduces cholesterol levels and promotes overall vascular health.
Supports Muscle Growth: Amidst the numerous muscle-building supplements available, L-Arginine stands out as a well-researched option for stimulating muscle growth. As a natural amino acid, it is considered safe and can be a beneficial addition to fitness routines and bodybuilding regimens.
Manages Pregnancy Complications: L-Arginine plays a vital role in managing fetal development and addressing pregnancy-related complications. It helps regulate restricted or excessive fetal growth, making it a recommended supplement for such cases by healthcare providers.
How Long Does it Take for L-Arginine to Work?
The time it takes for L-Arginine to exert its effects varies based on the intended use. Typically, it takes a minimum of 24 hours for L-Arginine to be absorbed by the body. To achieve optimal results, it is advised to take L-Arginine regularly for a period of three to six months, as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
Who Can Benefit from L-Arginine?
L-Arginine is commonly prescribed for individuals dealing with hypertension, low blood pressure, dizziness, weakness, or any heart-related issues. It is highly recommended for those experiencing erectile dysfunction, fertility concerns, as well as bodybuilding enthusiasts and fitness enthusiasts seeking muscle growth.
In conclusion, L-Arginine supplements are generally considered safe and well-tolerated by the body. However, it is important to follow the prescribed dosage to avoid potential side effects such as stomach pain, bloating, diarrhea, or nausea. Individuals with specific allergies or asthma conditions should exercise caution or avoid L-Arginine supplementation altogether.

A Guide to Vegan Foods During Pregnancy
Tumblr media
Should I change my vegetarian diet to get pregnant? Is it safe to eat a vegetarian diet during pregnancy? These may be your questions too. In general, a balanced plant-based diet can provide all the nutrients needed for a healthy pregnancy. But never suddenly change your diet to a vegan or vegetarian diet during or very close to pregnancy.
If you are also on a vegan or vegetarian diet, pay special attention to the intake of protein, vitamin B12, calcium, vitamin D, zinc and iron during pregnancy and after giving birth while breastfeeding, because these nutrients are important for your body, cell growth , the development of the fetus's brain and other organs, and the baby's weight gain are vital, and as long as you eat a wide range of healthy plant foods and plan your diet to include key nutrients for a vegetarian expectant mother, you can get all the nutrients you need. Get what you and your baby need, but:
Never suddenly change your diet to a vegan or vegetarian diet during or very close to your pregnancy.
It's best to see a nutritionist to make sure your diet is balanced during pregnancy, especially if you're on a vegan diet.
In some cases, you'll need to rely on fortified foods or supplements to make sure you're getting enough of each nutrient you need.
In the pre-pregnancy examinations or in the first care of the pregnancy period, let your doctor know about your diet.
Along with eating a wide variety of fruits, fresh vegetables and whole grain products, you should make sure you are getting the necessary supplements.
Pregnancy supplements are very important for pregnant women who follow a vegan diet.
Always talk to your doctor, midwife or nutritionist before taking any supplements.
If you are vegan, meaning you don't eat any animal products including animal meat, eggs, dairy and honey, read her mother's article on vegan food during pregnancy. But what foods should a pregnant vegetarian mother eat?
Protein
Protein is made of structures called amino acids, which are essential for cell growth and embryo development. So eat several meals of protein-rich food every day. Good sources of protein include eggs, dairy products, legumes, soy products, nuts, seeds, and nut butters. Suggestions for including these foods in your diet:
Add beans such as red, black or white beans, peas, lentils or tofu to your salad.
Make and eat bean burritos or bean dishes with different recipes.
As a snack, eat a handful of almonds, walnuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, or roasted chickpeas.
Spread on whole grain bread or apple slices, peanut butter or almond butter.
Eat yogurt or cottage cheese as a snack.
Eat the hard-boiled egg slices with a salad or greens.
A vegetarian diet that includes eggs and dairy products can provide high-quality protein, but an exclusively plant-based vegan diet requires more careful planning and a variety of plant-based protein sources should be included in your daily diet.
iron
You will have a blood test early in your pregnancy to check your iron levels. If your blood iron is low, your doctor may recommend that you take an iron supplement. Your pregnancy supplement will probably have some iron, but you should also eat several servings of iron-rich foods each day. Good sources of iron include:
Cerlak with iron-enriched breakfast cereals
Foods made from whole or enriched grains such as bread and pasta
Tofu, Tempeh and other foods with soybean origin
Eat leafy vegetables like spinach and greens
Avoid drinking tea or coffee with your meals as well, as these beverages contain tannins and polyphenols that make it harder for the body to absorb iron from vegetables. Instead, eat something high in vitamin C, as vitamin C helps your body absorb iron. For example, eat homemade orange juice, homemade tomato sauce or various homemade sauces to help your body absorb iron.
You can also puree broccoli, cauliflower, avocado, carrots, spinach, celery, and then mix any two or three of these vegetables that you think taste best together, then add olive oil and spices. Optionally, prepare homemade sauces of your own invention.
zinc or zinc
Zinc in plant foods is not absorbed very well by the body, so you need to have a plan to get zinc in your diet. Good sources of zinc include whole grains, such as whole grain bread, legumes, such as beans and lentils, soy products, vegetables, milk and yogurt.
Try to eat a few servings of zinc-rich foods every day. Many foods that provide iron, such as fortified breakfast cereals, beans, soy-based foods, and whole grains, also contain zinc. Other good sources of zinc for vegetarians include nuts, seeds, and cheese.
Calcium
Eat several servings of calcium-rich foods every day. Good sources of calcium include:
Milk, cheese and yogurt
Almond milk or soy milk, fruit juice and calcium-enriched breakfast cereals
Almonds or sesame seeds
White beans, molasses or blackstrap molasses, chickpeas, calcium-fortified tofu (look for a calcium salt such as calcium chloride or calcium sulfate in the ingredients list to find out if tofu is calcium-fortified.)
