In order of volume and priority...Coffee, leafy greens(in all forms, especially cabbage - all types, kale, napa, green, etc.) and protein in all forms, diversity is important, animal and vegetable sources.
I mix in other fruits and vegetables for flavoring and variety. Also, I eliminated salt and that relieved my stress in a significant, noticeable way.
I start my day at 4am, if I eat heavier, carb-based items, I notice a crash somewhere around 3 or 4 pm and the last few hours of my day are a struggle. If I stick to what I listed above, I power through the afternoon and feel more balanced when I end my day.
- yoosi 10y agoDo you supplement iodine?
- endswapper 10y agoI do not. Based on the iodine content that naturally occurs in foods I don't think I am at risk of iodine deficiency. This is part of my strategy of diversity as well. For example, turkey and potatoes are both high in iodine. While I try to avoid carb-based meals I might include a half of a potato in a shredded cabbage salad that might be 80% cabbage. When you add up other items like tomatoes, eggs, some beans, etc. I don't think I'm missing anything.
