Stevia?
Is Stevia something we should avoid as well?
-
annefood @AuthenticBriana great question! Stevia is allowed as it does not have the same effect on your blood sugar levels as sugar. However, you should use limited amounts because it can cause gastric...
Too much water?
I've heard two objections to drinking 8 cups of water a day: 1) water can reduce the amount of good gut bacteria and 2) cause your electrolytes to become unbalanced. Are either of these valid reaso...
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Hey @hobmij! Great question. As Anne mentioned, most people would need to drink well beyond 8 glasses before it can have detrimental impacts to your health, especially if you are counting tea and...

darkchocolatepeanutbutter Hi @hobmij! As @annefood and @Rachna said, the amount of water we drink depends on our personal needs so experiment with how much water you need to get through the day. Also may I ask where you got...

greatist.com
I'm a big fan of the Sunday cooking party to cook for the week. Not all of these recipes are very balanced, but it's given me a ton of ideas of how to prep nutritious meals so I can eat home-cooked...

munchiemummy I roasted a whole chicken on Sunday, incorporated it into dinner on Monday, and make stock from the carcass that I can freeze for soup or cooking later on.

Radioactive neon yellow egg insides?
I just cracked an egg into my frying pan and the contents was an extremely bright neon yellow color. Freaked me out a bit, so I didn't eat it. Other eggs from the same carton were totally normal....
What to do with smoked mackerel for breakfast?
-
nloai001 I usually have smoked salmon with cream cheese on a bagel (or toast). Maybe your smoked mackerel could be a good sub for the smoked salmon?
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter You could also try smoked fish on homemade avocado toast! It has the same cream texture as cream cheese with a boost of healthy fats.
-
annefood Love those ideas @nloai001 @darkchocolatepeanutbutter ! It could also be good with scrambled eggs.
How do you feel about the phrase, "clean eating"?
I've heard some nutritionists/dietitians who do not like to label food as clean because it causes people to look at food as black or white. Others feel it helps them to stay nutritionally focused; ...
-
Emma I really appreciate this question. My feeling is that "clean" makes good food sound a bit precious, pure, even pretentious. I don't love the term. Looking forward to hearing others' thoughts!
-
Brianne I've struggled with this question because 'clean' is the only term I can come up with to describe how I like to eat. I'm not a vegetarian, but I don't eat meat unless I know it was raised humanely,...
-
NehaNBB I don't like the term at all because it positions the opposite as dirty, and wrong - and the more we judge people about their food choices, the worse off we will be.
