Keto dieters who restrict their carbohydrate consumption for health reasons usually cut beer from their daily dietary intake. Yet, every now and then, a keto-er may want to have an ice cold low-carb beer. Nowadays, there are more low-calorie and low-carb beer options on the shelves than there has ever been. While individual preferences differ, there's a beer to suit nearly everyone's taste, whether that's a light wheat beer or a more bitter IPA. Keto Approved or Keto Friendly Low Carb Beers Tasted and Recommended by Chef Janine. When it comes to low-carb beers, you might want to focus on "light" beers. Their carb counts are always lower and they usually contain less alcohol (as measured by the percent of "alcohol by volume," or ABV) than their regular counterparts. That said, some have more carbs than others. And they vary in calories too. To be labeled as ‘light,’ the product needs to have one-third fewer calories compared to the full-calorie version. For clients who enjoy drinking beer, we encourage strict moderation and making informed choices. Look for nutritional information on packaging or online. Five grams of carbohydrate is the benchmark for people who are on keto diet and watching their carb intake. This video (link below) rounds up several low-carb beers that clock in at fewer than 100 calories per 12 ounce bottle or glass, including some fresh new options. https://www.health.com/weight-loss/best-low-carb-beer-keto You may want to check out this article linked below which lists 14 low carb beer products (10 keto approved brands are 5 carbs or lower, and 4 keto friendly brands are over 5 gr carbs) https://ketogenicbuddies.com/low-carb-beers/ Cheers !

Humor And Laughter Reduce The Risk Of Developing Chronic Health Conditions! A merry heart is one of the most important things in life, both spiritually and physically. In the Bible, we see that God expects us to have a cheerful countenance. Proverbs 14:30 says, “A peaceful heart gives life to the body, and a bitter heart rots the bones.” A merry heart heals your soul and makes you strong. By contrast, a broken spirit weakens you and saps your strength. Having a merry heart will help you laugh in faith no matter what life throws your way. The hormones produced during stressful situations (cortisol, adrenaline, ...) can do a lot of damage to the mind and body over time. Humor and laughter reduce the levels of these hormones in the body. It has also been proven that laughter can help reduce the risk of blood clots, heart conditions, and other stress-related diseases. So, in short, what happens to your body when you laugh? Your stress hormones decrease. Stress levels drop within minutes of laughing. Your heart, lungs, diaphragm get stimulated. Your abdominal, intercostal (between ribs), and facial muscles get stimulated. Your brain’s reward system increases its activity. Your body releases Endorphins—the body’s natural pain blockers—, giving you a sense of well-being. Positive effects of laughter last up to 45 minutes, benefiting the cardiovascular system and reducing blood pressure. Laughter even speeds healing. Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine. Lord Byron Incorporating humor into your daily life has many other benefits: Your immune system gets stronger. You interact with others better, You burn out less throughout the day, Your mood and anxiety relief improves. You exert a better sense of control over negative emotions that may be bringing you down, such as depression, anxiety, and stress. Laughter encourages a sense of play and childlike behavior, which can help to improve your emotional intelligence and your social skills. Children laugh up to 300-400 times a day during their formative years, and this reduces to 10-15 times a day as an adult. You don’t stop laughing when you grow old, you grow old when you stop laughing. He/She who laughs, lasts! Here are some ideas as to how you can you incorporate humor into your life. You don’t need a reason to laugh – just start laughing. Try laughter yoga which combines gentle breathing, stretching, and simulated unconditional laughter. When the laughter is practiced in a group setting, the laughter becomes infectious and soon genuine. Remember two funny things that happened to you each day. Watch stand-up comedy, a tv show or movie that tickles your funny bone. Read a funny book. Spend quality play time full of laughter with your pets and/or children. Incorporate funny things into your life; a goofy pictures of your friends, family or pets, a witty sayings or cartoons. Have a game night—a little good spirited competition can get the good times rolling. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath. George Carlin

The effects of sugar — particularly fructose — can set the body on a vicious cycle known as metabolic syndrome. In one study, UC Davis' Kimber Stanhope and her colleagues altered the diets of a group of volunteers. Instead of consuming carbohydrate-rich foods such as rice, pasta, and bread, participants were given sugary beverages. The metabolic effects began in the liver, where fructose is primarily processed. From there, Stanhope explains, a chain of physiological responses was triggered throughout the body. Quitting problem foods is so much easier when you understand just exactly what's going on inside your body. Read more about fructose and other sugars here: The Case of Sugar

We had posted a video previously on this topic. We are shocked to find out that the video we share on our blog post is now banned from YouTube. It is amazing how quickly the tech platforms and MSM prevent such information from getting to the people. The real reason that the drug companies, tech platforms and MSM are furious about this extremely affordable cure is that it was supposed to kept secret... That's right! But it's not so easy to stop this information becoming public. YES! You can make Quinine at home, minus big pharma's fillers and preservatives. If you ever feel a chest cold coming on or just feel like crap... Make your own Quinine! Even a full treatment regime of HCQ pills from the doctor will cost less than $100 for someone who does not have insurance. Quinine is one of the drugs that is currently treating the virus which is the alleged cause of the current worldwide pandemic. And HCQ is not only proven to eliminate the flu virus... but "others" as well. Behind the scene studies are now coming forth that show HCQ being effective on other diseases as well HIV and even on cancers. What is Hydroxychloroquine Exactly? It is nothing but quinine. Something that anyone can make at home. And something that is being manufactured each and every day in the form of something we have all seen at the grocery and liquor stores, and consumed ... Nothing other than tonic water. Home Recipe for Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) Watch the same video now on Rumble! https://rumble.com/vrs7x3-how-to-make-hydroxychloroquine-hcq-at-home-quinine-version.html The recipe and the method how to make this solution at home, is extremely simple. It is made out of the peelings of grapefruits and lemons, especially grapefruits. Take the peelings of 2-3 lemons, and 2-3 grapefruits. Place the peels into a pot. Cover the peelings with water about 3 inches above the peels. Cover your pot with the lid. Bring the water to boiling. Let it simmer for about 3 hours. Do not take the lid off of the pot till it cools completely. Otherwise the quinine will escape in the steam. Sweeten the tea with stevia or monk fruit sweetener since it will be bitter from quinine! This HCQ tea will last few weeks in the fridge, or it can also be frozen. After freezing in form of ice cubes, place in zip lock bags in the freezer. Frozen HCQ tea cubes will last few months! Note: Please share this post with your friends and allow them to learn how to make this simple health booster for the possible health benefits. This home version of Hydroxychloroquine is not same as drug. USES and APPLICATIONS Some experts recommend to take zinc and vitamin C with this recipe as the Quinine propels the zinc into the cells for faster healing. Some experts recommend taking this HCQ tea for preventative purposes, 1 tablespoon daily. With chest cold symptoms or if you feel like crap, take 1 tablespoon every couple of hours to bring up the phlegm from your lungs. They recommend to discontinue as soon as you get better if you are not planning on taking on a regular basis as a preventative. In addition to this, doctors are also prescribing the antibiotic Azithromycin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azithromycin) (Zithromax Z-Pak). Quinine has many uses and applications. Here are some of the possible uses and applications of Quinine (do your own research; the creator of this video material is not advising anything). it is ... analgesic, anesthetic, anti -arrhythmic, antibacterial, antimalarial, antimicrobial, antiparasitic, antipyretic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, antiviral, astringent, bactericide, cytotoxic, febrifuge, fungicide, insecticide, nervine.

The positive effects of exercise on health is well known to every one. Evidently, taking a short walk around the block after each meal, or a quick stroll around the office after lunch yields many health benefits such as improved digestion, heart health, blood sugar management, weight loss, and regulates blood pressure. For the biggest health benefits, aim to walk within 60 to 90 minutes after you finish a meal; this is when blood sugar levels tend to peak. Your muscles use up the energy from the food you just ate and help escort the sugar out of your bloodstream. A new study analyzed how walking after a meal affects insulin and blood sugar levels. Study shows that going even for a few minutes short walk after a meal, can help reduce blood sugar levels. When you eat a meal - particularly one heavy in carbohydrates - it's normal for your blood sugar levels to spike temporarily. This spike in blood sugar triggers the release of insulin, which allows glucose to enter your cells, where it's used for energy. However, if your body consistently has very high spikes in blood sugar, cells can eventually stop responding to insulin (insulin resistance). Therefore, a walk after meals can help lower blood sugar levels, potentially reducing the chances of developing insulin resistance, diabetes Type 2 and heart disease. If you experience an upset stomach when walking right after eating, wait 10–15 minutes after meals before walking and keep the walking intensity low. Let's have a look at a few obvious health benefits of walking shortly after eating. Improves digestion Walking after eating promotes your digestion by stimulating the stomach and intestines, and aiding the food to move through the gastrointestinal (GI) tract more rapidly (improved colonic transit time). Protective effects on the GI tract Low to moderate physical activity after eating has protective effects on the GI tract; reduced risk of peptic ulcers, heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diverticular disease, constipation, and colorectal cancer. May promote weight loss We all know that physical activity in combination with a proper diet plays a major role in weight management. It is self evident that in order to promote weight loss, you must be in a calorie deficit. This means you must strive to burn more calories than you take in. Walking a mile (1.6 km) after meals burns approximately 100 calories (depends on your sex and weight). This practice —if consistently maintained— could bring you closer to reaching a calorie deficit that can aid in weight loss. To increase the intensity of your walk and burn even more calories, try walking on routes with hills or slight inclines. Regular walking after meals will also improve your mood and make you more motivated to keep it up. May help regulate blood pressure Walking after meals may have a potent blood-pressure-lowering effect. An Italian study found that regular walking can reduce systolic blood pressure by as much as 21 points. "Several" 10-minute walks throughout the day --a minimum of 30 minutes of daily walking with 3 daily 10-minute walks-- are more beneficial for lowering blood pressure than one continuous session.

What Are Omega-3s? Omega-3s—specifically EPA and DHA—are a family of essential fatty acids primarily found in higher-fat fish. Mackerel, sardines, salmon, anchovies, herring, and albacore tuna are excellent sources of these marine-based omega-3s. Mackerel, sardines, salmon, anchovies, herring, and albacore tuna are excellent sources of the marine-based omega-3s. Types Of Omega-3s There are three main types of omega-3 fatty acids: ALA, EPA, and DHA. These are different chemical compounds with distinct biological functions. ALA (Alpha-Linolenic Acid) – Found in plants ALA is a shorter-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and the parent of the omega-3 family. It's present in plant sources like flaxseeds, chia seeds, and walnuts. The body can convert ALA into EPA and DHA, but this process is inefficient—typically converting only 5% to 20%. As a result, it’s nearly impossible to meet optimal EPA and DHA levels through ALA-rich plant foods alone. EPA (Eicosatetraenoic Acid) – Produced by algae and found in fish EPA is a long-chain PUFA originally produced by microalgae. We usually consume it by eating fish that feed on these algae. EPA is known for its role in supporting immune function, cardiovascular and joint health, and fetal development. DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) – Found in algae and fish Like EPA, DHA is a long-chain PUFA found in algae and in the fish that consume it. DHA is especially concentrated in the brain and retina, making it vital for cognitive function, eye health, and neurological development. When choosing an omega-3 supplement, look for at least 500 mg of combined EPA and DHA per serving and a formula with minimal additives or unnecessary fillers. Which Omega-3s To Purchase? When choosing an omega-3 supplement, it’s important to look for a few key qualities: sustainably sourced fish, a minimum of 500 milligrams of combined EPA and DHA per serving, and a clean ingredient list with minimal additives.

We hear this more and more often. And odds are you've heard someone talk about "going keto," you've considered it yourself, or at the very least, you've seen "keto-friendly" products and recipes in stores, magazines, and social media. "I'M GOING KETO!" What Does It Even Mean? Keto is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet, with limited protein. WHAT'S OUT? * Starchy and/or refined carbs are off-limits, including bread, rice, pasta, cereal, potatoes, pasta, rice or legumes. * Sugar of any type is also out, including table sugar, brown sugar, honey, molasses, agave and coconut sugar. * Fruits: Only a small amount of fruit is allowed; mostly berries, because of their lower carb content. * Vegetable and seed oils (Canola, Soy bean, grapeseed, ...) WHAT'S IN? * Good fats (butter, lard, olive oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, cold pressed sunflower oil). * Grass-fed, hormone-free, antibiotics-free meat, cage-free poultry and eggs. * Non-starchy vegetables and leafy greens, fresh; carbs from these vegetables are factored into daily carb allotment. * Full-fat, organic dairy including lactose-free strained Greek style yogurt; carbs need to be accounted for in daily total. * No-calorie plant-based sweeteners like monk fruit, erythritol, stevia. * Beverages with zero sugar or artificial sweeteners, including water, sparkling water, tea and coffee. * Fruits and nuts; berries of all kind, walnuts, almonds; carbs need to be accounted for in daily total. — feeling determined.

If you are living in California, prepare for the huge 2023 price increase for restaurant food across the state, and may be soon, across the whole country. History has shown us that where California goes, the rest of the country flows. The whole world has changed since the all-destructive "plandemic" and things won't be going back to how they were. Higher wages are here to stay, but the question is how high! If restaurant labor costs are a struggle for restaurant owners now, the bill that just passed in California has the potential to put privately owned restaurants out of business in the next couple of years. The new law "AB 257" which the California governor Gavin Newscum signed in early September 2022 is going to push the minimum wage for fast food chains with 100 or more restaurants to $22 per hour as early as January 1st, 2023. This new bill has the potential to put the privately owned restaurants out of business for good in the next couple of years. You may think as a restaurant owner or a customer alike, that privately owned restaurants with single location or few locations are different from fast food chains with 100 or more locations. At the first glance, that may sound right. However, the increase of minimum wage for the food industry workers to $22 per hour at fast food establishments has serious implications. That is simply because no food industry is prepared to work for a privately owned restaurant for a lesser wage when he/she can make $22 per hour at fast food place. Consequently, privately owned restaurants will be forced to pay more for labor, which will inevitably reflect to the food prices for you, the consumers... It’s time to take a hard look at what has to happen so that the restaurants can keep their prices affordable for the consumers.

For millions of people around the world, coffee is far more than just a comforting morning ritual — it’s one of the most widely enjoyed beverages on the planet, deeply woven into daily life, culture, conversation, and productivity. But beyond its rich aroma and energizing flavor, coffee has also been the subject of extensive scientific research for decades. From boosting energy and metabolism to supporting brain function, heart health, mood, and even skin wellness, this beloved brew may offer a surprising range of benefits when enjoyed in moderation. Here are some fascinating reasons why your daily cup of coffee might be doing more for you than you realize. 1. It really wakes you up. Coffee is already part of many morning routines, but did you know that even the aroma of roasted coffee beans may help reduce the effects of sleep deprivation? Better yet, caffeine begins working within about 10 minutes of your first sip, with effects that can last up to four hours. Not a bad payoff for your favorite cup of coffee. 2. It makes your power nap even better. Because caffeine takes a little time to enter your bloodstream, drinking a cup of coffee right before a 20-minute power nap can create the ultimate energy boost. A “coffee nap” is one of the best ways to beat afternoon sluggishness and heavy eyelids. 3. It may help fight breast cancer. According to a 2015 study, drinking two or more cups of coffee daily may help slow breast cancer progression. Researchers found that coffee’s compounds may help inhibit tumor growth and reduce the risk of recurrence by making affected cells more sensitive to treatment. 4. It’s a great exfoliant. Looking for a simple homemade scrub? Mix six tablespoons of finely ground coffee (fresh or used) with four tablespoons of coconut or olive oil to form a thick paste. Gently massage it onto your face and body using circular motions to help remove dead skin cells. Just avoid the delicate eye area. 5. It can boost your metabolism. Coffee won’t replace exercise, but caffeine is a natural stimulant that can help support metabolism. Some studies also suggest regular coffee consumption may help reduce the risk of adult-onset diabetes, with particularly strong associations observed in women. 6. It may slow the aging process. Coffee contains bioactive compounds that may help preserve motor skills and memory as we age. Research has also linked coffee consumption with lower risks of dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease. 7. It can make your hair shinier. To help remove product buildup, massage coffee grounds into your scalp before shampooing. The grounds can gently exfoliate the scalp while helping restore shine. However, coffee may stain lighter hair colors, so blondes may want to skip this treatment. 8. It may help protect your eyes. Researchers have identified powerful antioxidants in coffee, including chlorogenic acid, which may help protect the retina from damage associated with vision loss, glaucoma, and blindness. 9. It can make workouts feel easier. Some workouts are harder than others, but caffeine may help improve exercise performance and perceived energy levels. Gym-goers who received caffeine from researchers beforehand rated their workouts as easier and more enjoyable than those without. In studies, participants who consumed caffeine before exercise reported their workouts felt easier and more enjoyable. Even better? Those test subjects ate an average of 72 fewer calories that same day. 10. It may help prevent skin cancer. While sunscreen should always remain essential, some studies suggest coffee consumption may help reduce the risk of melanoma and other forms of skin cancer. 11. It’s good for your heart. Your heart works nonstop, beating thousands of times each hour. Research suggests that drinking three to five cups of coffee daily may support cardiovascular health by helping reduce coronary artery calcium buildup and lowering the risk of heart disease. 12. It may help ward off depression. Long-term studies involving thousands of women found that regular coffee drinkers had a lower risk of depression. Beyond the immediate mental boost coffee provides, it may also offer longer-term mood-supportive benefits. The Timing of Coffee Matters More Than You Think Metabolic therapy chef Janine states that the ‘magic’ of coffee is in its potential to provide both short-term and long-term benefits. However, she also offers one important reminder. Recent research suggests that when you drink coffee may be just as important as how much you drink. “You still want to keep your daily caffeine intake around 300–400 mg per day — roughly three to four cups — and avoid caffeine after 3 PM if you’re especially sensitive to it.” Experts warn that caffeine can remain active in the body for 5-7 hours — and sometimes even longer depending on genetics, age, medications, and metabolism. Even if you no longer “feel” the buzz, coffee consumed late in the day may still interfere with melatonin production, sleep quality, and the body’s natural circadian rhythm. Most health professionals recommend avoiding caffeine at least 6–8 hours before bedtime, while highly caffeine-sensitive individuals may benefit from an even longer buffer. In short, coffee can be a powerful wellness ally when enjoyed in moderation and timed wisely. Coffee, Hydration & Better Timing Another important point experts now emphasize is hydration. While coffee itself contributes to your daily fluid intake, many nutritionists recommend starting the morning with a glass of water before reaching for your first cup of coffee. Overnight, the body naturally loses fluids during sleep, and rehydrating first thing in the morning may help support energy, focus, and overall hydration levels. However, researchers also note that coffee is only a mild diuretic and still counts toward hydration goals. In the end, the real key is balance: enjoy your coffee, stay properly hydrated throughout the day, and avoid relying on caffeine alone for energy and alertness. We'll drink another cup of coffee to that!

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading global cause of death. For decades, the conventional wisdom has been that the consumption of saturated fat undermines cardiovascular health, clogs the arteries, increases risk of CVD and leads to heart attacks. This timely research investigates whether this claim holds up to scientific scrutiny. No, Saturated Fat Doesn’t Clog Your Arteries or Cause Heart Disease, New Research Analysis Finds! A new analysis finds little to no association with saturated fat consumption and increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Conclusions Findings indicate that the consumption of saturated fat is not associated with cardiovascular disease risk, events or mortality. Based on the scientific evidence, there is no scientific ground to demonize saturated fat as a cause of cardiovascular disease. Saturated fats which are naturally occurring in nutrient-dense foods can be safely included in the diet. Links to the studies mentioned: Valk, R., Hammill, J., Grip, J. G. (2022).

We’ve all seen the headlines throughout the 2020s. The Instagram reels. The awkward celebrity cameos. 🙈Robert Downey Jr. and Stephen Colbert hyping up cricket kibble for a multi-billion-dollar company? 🦗💰Nicole Kidman nibbling bugs in haute couture for Vanity Fair? 🐛👠 Turns out the pandemic wasn’t weird enough—'Eat the bugs' crawled its way into mainstream meme status right in the middle of it. But let’s pause for a moment. Is this really food we should be eating? 🤔 This video explores how insect-based foods are produced on an industrial scale, discusses concerns about parasites and food safety, and examines the "Circular Economy" model that the proponents cite as a justification for expanding insect consumption. 🐜✔️❓ Hidden Parasites: What’s Crawling Under the Surface? Sure, bugs are high in protein. Sure, they take fewer resources to raise than cows. But here’s the crunchy truth: ➡️ Studies show that edible insects may carry harmful parasites, especially when farmed in huge industrial facilities. ➡️ Think cricket farms, mealworm factories, and high-density grub breeding—all fertile ground for contamination. ➡️ Unlike beef or chicken, we don’t have decades of food safety standards built around mass-producing insects. And while the marketing is cute, the long-term effects of eating heavily processed insect-based products are still unknown. "Circular Economy" or Gourmet Garbage? Ever heard of the Circular Economy? Sounds chic, right? ♻️But here's the scoop: 🍽️ Insects in this new system aren’t being raised on organic oats and honey. 😬 They’re being fed waste—expired food, trash produce, sometimes even fecal matter. That’s the whole pitch: You eat the bugs. The bugs eat the garbage. The loop continues. 🔁💩➡️🍴 This isn’t just sustainability—it’s a corporate strategy disguised as a lifestyle. The big players make money. You eat cricket powder protein bars. And if you dare to ask questions? You’re called “anti-science.” 🙄 Who’s Really Hungry for This? Let’s keep it real: 🥬 If this was about saving the planet, we’d be funding regenerative farming, permaculture, and food transparency—not bug factories owned by billionaires. 🍔 We’d be empowering communities to grow their own clean food—not pushing processed larvae snacks in shrink-wrapped plastic. 🧠 The narrative isn’t “Hey, here’s a fun new protein!” ♻️ The narrative is “You must eat this—because the climate demands it.” Does that feel like food freedom—or corporate feudalism in green packaging? Foodie Final Thoughts Look, we’re not saying all new ideas are bad. Innovation is great. But when you’re being told to embrace an untested, industrialized protein source… 🚨 Without real transparency 🚨 Without long-term studies 🚨 And with a lot of media manipulation … it’s time to pause and question the recipe. "So the next time someone hands you cricket chips and calls it 'sustainable,' ask yourself: 🛑 Is this really dinner—or just a dystopian science fair project gone way too far? Stay curious, stay skeptical, and yes—read the ingredient label. Chef Janine.
