1. Let's cook with coconut fat
When baking, frying and cooking, instead of oil and butter, use tasteless coconut fat, which tolerates heating very well, as it does not produce harmful substances even at high temperatures. Coconut fat contains a high percentage of lauric acid, a medicinal substance that increases the body's immune resistance - it works against viruses, parasites, fungi and bacteria, helps regulate blood sugar levels, speeds up metabolism, and can also be consumed by people with candida problems.
2. Instead of regular salt, use pink Himalayan salt
Salt is not always bad for us. Pink Himalayan salt contains an almost identical set of elements that are also found in the human body - copper, potassium, magnesium, calcium and iron. Himalayan salt helps detoxify our body, stimulates circulation, normalizes blood pressure, has an anti-inflammatory effect, helps relieve joint pain, helps relax muscles and regenerate cells, and soothes irritated skin.
3. Include eggs in the menu
For breakfast, we prepare jaca, which contain a large amount of protein, vitamins and minerals and thus regulate blood sugar levels. Just be careful not to fry them in an excessive amount of oil and sprinkle them with ordinary salt...
4. Replace coffee with tea
Coffee can have both positive and negative effects on our health. Coffee can raise cholesterol, raise blood sugar levels and increase the risk of diseases such as cancer, arthritis and stroke. A healthy alternative to coffee is tea, especially green tea, which contains a large amount of high-quality antioxidants, improves the functioning of our immune system, slows down aging, prevents the onset of cancer and generally has an excellent effect on our psycho-physical well-being.
