June 7th Low Carb Menu

8am
2 large cups of organic coffee with milk

10am
green beans
organic chicken thigh and drumstick



2pm
seven coconut herb buns with butter and cream cheese ( I would say the equivalent of 2 sandwiches)
1.5 cups of plain organic yogurt

6pm
romaine salad with organic chicken meat and mozzarella cheese (sauce from leftover chicken)


10pm
1 avocado
1 cup of organic milk with 2 teaspoons of coconut oil
handful of almonds

Note:
I really was not hungry at 10pm but I had realized that I hardly had any potassium rich food today. I really hate leg and muscle cramps due to this deficiency so I grabbed these foods to eat to prevent them. I have learned that Candida Yeast infections inhibit the absorption of vitamins and minerals and therefore it is imperative to eat high quality and mineral rich foods.

3 organic eggs with mozzarella cheese topped with green onion
1.5 cups of organic yogurt

1pm
5 meatballs (probably made with some grains)
1 cup fried potatoes
salad greens with a curry dressing (was sweet with sugar)

(eeks - not candida friendly, but nevertheless it was delicious)

7pm
1 avocado
1 cup of lacto-fermented fruit
roasted organic chicken drumstick
green beans with vitamin rich yellow butter
plain romaine salad

Note:
We did not end up eating lunch at home and therefore my lunch also ended up feeding my candida. Some unexpected events happened (neighbours doggy was sick and I was looking after it) and I was not able to prepare alternative foods for lunch.

I will also have some coconut oil tonight.

1/2 cup of lacto-fermented fruit (pineapple, orange, apple, ginger, whey, salt and rapadura sugar). The sugars are digested by the fermentation. There was hardly any sweetness to this batch. I had hoped my kids would like it, but there was a very strong ginger flavour so they hated it.

June 1st Low Carb Menu

6am
2 large cups of organic coffee with milk

9am
2 bowls of Beef Bone Broth soup with beef, carrot, celery, kale, garlic, wild leeks

10am
2 large cups of earl grey tea with milk

4pm
handful of brazil nuts

6:45pm
Romaine salad
pork heart seasoned with garlic powder, salt and pepper
broccoli with butter

Raw heart


cooked heart


Note:
This is the first time that I had pork heart. I have eaten chicken hearts and beef heart before (the beef heart was cut up for me in smaller pieces). However when I looked at the pork heart it looked very life like as if it could be a human heart. I was feeling sentimental at the fact that this organ was what gave life to this pig and I was holding it in my hand. I gave thanks to the life that was sacrificed for me to feed my family.

I did not have much of an appetite today. My stomach was feeling unwell. The feelings have passed now that it is evening.
