How Can I Balance Meals the Healthy Way?

Not only did I FALL OFF the Diet Wagon, I DRAGGED it into the Woods, SET it on FIRE, and used the insurance money to buy cupcakes.

Eating healthy, balanced meals is a daily struggle. In this “The Impetus” vlog we talk about some ways you can supplement your diet with Whole Food, kosher, vegan, and organic nutrition. We introduce what we call Kenzen Wellness Core nutrition. We also talk about how you can save some money and time.

What’s really in our food?

Recently, many people have been checking the ingredient lists of our food to determine if it is ultra-processed. We are able to see strange sounding ingredients on the back, but what exactly do they do to our food?

Let’s examine a proclaimed ‘healthy’ food, a gluten free KIND bar. Its ingredients include;

tapioca syrup, produced from tapioca starch that is used as a thickener, sweetener, and stabiliser. It has been linked to causing fatty liver disease.

vegetable glycerin, a sugar alcohol that is a byproduct of the soap and biodiesel industry. It can lead to nausea and diarrhoea.

palm kernel oil, made by the bleaching, deodorising and neutralising of crude palm oil. It increases levels of bad cholesterol.

Keep in mind that these effects are shown when the ingredients are eaten in excess, however 60%-90% of the average American diet are full of these foods (that are ultra processed). Learn your ingredients!

Thinking about Lestat seeing Louis’s eating patterns as a waste of his gift/himself while Armand gives Louis food that he literally can not enjoy or digest just so he has something on his stomach

I wish there was more focus in the food world/food media on general everyday healthy eating that isn’t body-focused or diet culturey. Just good vibes nutritious food for everyday. I think Melissa Clark is really good for this, along with a lot of actual cookbooks, but the current pop culture/food media scene is so saturated either with 3 ingredient no flour no sugar 200 calorie lose 20lb nowww videos or workout/training body dysmorphia stuff OR try our ooey gooeyest cheesiest Mac YET triple chocolate fudgey fried brownie clickbait and I just want to figure out what to do with half a head of broccoli or three kilograms of malanga

looking back I do wonder if a lot of *why* food media is like that isn’t some broad question of diet but instead social media programming - both extreme dieting and extremely indulgent comfort food are a kind of vicarious experience for most of the people clicking and it’s rage bait anyway. But it still sucks (esp as it shows another reason social media gamification can destroy a genre)

To this very day, Demetri’s preferred lunch is still dinosaur chicken nuggets and smiley fries.

Eating enough fiber per day is the best prevention against digestive & gut issues (IBS, SIBO, Crohn's, colon cancer, constipation, painful bloating, etc). Fiber is one of the major nutrients which people today are undernourished in. In fact, it's estimated that the average Westerner eats about 80% less fiber than early hunter-gatherers did. When we're spoiled for affordable & accessible choices in this day & age, it's very weird.

I don't know if any of my followers here are into Human Design (it's a bit like astrology, but a bit more practical in its application).

A lot of people try to eat intuitively, or find a way of eating that suits them. But that's difficult to do when your mind is clouded with so much conflict over what is best. Diet culture has poked its head into many healthy eating spaces time and time again. And every body is different, with different needs. So, you have to let go of all the crap to really start tuning in with your body and nourish it properly.

In Human Design, there is an aspect called digestion (or determination). It dictates how you most efficiently digest/intake information. It's not just limited to food (food is information for your cells). The digestion aspect challenges you to step out of how you may have thought you ought to eat (or learn) (or live in general).

I have some guides on reading & interpreting your Human Design chart over on my other blog. The Primary Health System: HD Variables post talks particularly about finding your digestion/determination aspect. Or, if the Human Design system is not your thing, I have a SAD Diet Transformation series (to help you get out of patterns of eating that don't bring you joy).

Thank you so much for your depression post. Also the vegetables stuff is too real I feel so much guilt over having to buy precut vegetables.

listen. you and me? you and i and whomever else? same. we deserve vegetables. it is so great that some people are able to buy vegetables from farmers markets or buy vegetables in whole no plastic without a second thought bc cutting veggies is so easy for them! but it’s not for us. if precut vegetables is the difference between you eating vegetables at all vs not, get your precut veg. you deserve food that makes you feel good, who cares who cut it. you deserve it nonetheless.
