  In today's episode, I'm going to talk to you about five foods.
• 2:06
  That I highly recommend that I promote in all my weight loss hormone and digestive gut health programs.
• 2:14
  That's literally not only helping my patients lose weight, but helping them balance the hormones, helping them eliminate brain fog, improving their energy.
• 2:24
  Like, eliminated, the toxicity level in the bodies, but those five foods are vital.
• 2:30
  And of course, we all know we should eat healthy.
• 2:32
  We all know we should eat greens and vegetables and less sugar and less fat.
• 2:37
  Like these are basic.
• 2:38
  These are very basic.
• 2:39
  I really want to bring your attention to those five categories of five foods.
• 2:43
  That many of you are probably aware of, but you are not eating them.
• 2:47
  And I'm also going to tell you why you need to eat them, specifically if you are trying to lose weight.
• 2:52
  Specifically if you are trying to lose weight.
• 2:54
  So often patients will tell me, I don't know what to eat.
• 2:57
  I'm like, Oh my God, food is medicine.
• 2:59
  Food is like putting gas in your car.
• 3:01
  What do you mean you don't know what to eat?
• 3:02
  There's so many options out there.
• 3:04
  I love food.
• 3:05
  I use food as a healing component, as a healing tool.
• 3:09
  Because I do not want to depend on a medication or supplement to help me feel healthy and stay healthy.
• 3:17
  I want to use other resources that I have access to that is cost effective to help me get to my health goals and food is it because we need to eat.
• 3:28
  We need to eat every day.
• 3:29
  That's how we feed ourselves.
• 3:31
  So if you're going to eat something every day to feed yourselves for them to work for you, you might as well pay attention and put your energy in choosing foods that are nutrient dense and eat them in abundance.
• 3:43
  Now we are on a weight loss kick.
• 3:45
  In case you didn't know, I just released a weight and fat loss roadmap ebook that tells you everything that you need to help you lose the weight.
• 3:53
  And yes, at the end of the ebook, there's a few recipes to get you started.
• 3:59
  And one of the food that I'm gonna mention today is on that recipe.
• 4:04
  I give my patients meal plans and recipes for everything.
• 4:08
  I have a detox program.
• 4:09
  There's a recipe in the detox program.
• 4:11
  I have my signature program that helps you identify the root cause and heal all the root causes.
• 4:17
  There's a meal plan.
• 4:18
  My hormones programs have a meal plan.
• 4:20
  My weight loss programs have a meal plan.
• 4:21
  So I literally give my patients everything they need.
• 4:24
  To help them heal the bodies and food is a big portion of it.
• 4:30
  Yes, I do herbs.
• 4:31
  Yes, I, you know, promote other supplements, but there's nothing that can replace food.
• 4:37
  And no, eating only will not help you to your weight gain.
• 4:41
  Goals.
• 4:41
  I'm not gonna kid you.
• 4:42
  I'm not gonna lie to you.
• 4:43
  If you think you're gonna eat food and that's it, you're not gonna do anything to decrease inflammation, to boost your immune system, to balance your hormones, and you're just gonna depend on the food.
• 4:51
  You're gonna plateau, you're gonna lose a few pounds and you're gonna get frustrated.
• 4:55
  So it is a combination of all the things that we need to do that's gonna help you lose the weight.
• 5:01
  gain more energy, gain more happiness in your life, boost that vitality, feel vibrant every day, decrease the stiffness, like all of the things that you so desire, wake up with energy, wake up feeling amazing.

• 5:43
  I have patients coming to my door and I'm asking and I'm going to all the things they've been doing and I'm asking them questions they can't tell me.

  so link below, click on it, and then if you need help with any of the steps, you can reach out to me, you can schedule a consultation for me to help you.
• 6:29
  so you're going to see me look down because I have notes on those five foods.
• 6:33
  I did a video of five foods you should not be eating.
• 6:36
  If you have not watched that video or listened to that podcast, please go and do so right now.
• 6:42
  So, the fact that I'm telling you five foods.
• 6:45
  You should never eat if you're trying to lose weight, balance your hormones, feeling the best.
• 6:52
  Like literally decreasing inflammation, boosting your immune system, decreasing your toxicity level to have an amazing life.
• 7:00
  So go watch that video.
• 7:02
  But today I want to tell you five foods that most practitioners are not telling you about.
• 7:06
  I think you should really pay attention to.
• 7:08
  Now, many of these things, you know, already.
• 7:10
  So if you know these things already, let it be a reminder to you because those five foods, they are not only gonna help you lose weight, but they will also decrease your cravings and your hunger pains, and you will not need to snack in between meals.
• 7:27
  I am a big component of eating two power.
• 7:31
  Nutrient dense food meals so that we don't snack.
• 7:35
  snacking is never good.
• 7:36
  You should never snack.
• 7:36
  You should have a full lunch, full dinner, and that's it.
• 7:40
  And drink plenty of water.
• 7:42
  Yes, you know, a shake or protein are things that are literally helping you lose weight, decrease inflammation.
• 7:49
  Not things that are damaging you and making you feel sluggish and tired.
• 7:54
  Because food is supposed to give you energy.
• 7:56
  Not fatigue.
• 7:58
  So the first one we're going to talk about, of course, greens, we all know we need to eat greens.
• 8:03
  So when I ask my patients, are you eating greens?
• 8:06
  They tell me, Oh yeah, I eat spinach.
• 8:08
  No, I'm not talking about spinach.
• 8:09
  We don't eat spinach.
• 8:10
  Spinach is very inflammatory.
• 8:12
  Spinach creates histamine production.
• 8:14
  We don't eat spinach.
• 8:16
  I am not the one that's promoting spinach.
• 8:18
  I know it's cheaper.
• 8:19
  It's cost effective.
• 8:21
  It's affordable.
• 8:22
  It's accessible, but guess what?
• 8:23
  It's also produced.
• 8:25
  With mass production with contaminants, so they are not really taking care of the spinach.
• 8:30
  They inject and stuff into the soil so that we can grow the spinach very fast so that they can deliver the spinach and put it out there for all of us.
• 8:39
  we don't do spinach.
• 8:40
  You want to, you want to incorporate more sophisticated greens, I call them and the ones that I would love for you to keep an eye on.
• 8:47
  And you should have these greens with lunch.
• 8:49
  And also dinner.
• 8:51
  If you're making a smoothie for breakfast, you can also have it with breakfast.
• 8:54
  So I'm talking about color greens, beet greens, dandelion greens, mustard greens, and turnip greens.
• 9:02
  These are great, powerful greens.
• 9:05
  They are nutritional powerhouse, I call them, but they are also fat fighters and disease fighters, vegetables providing few calories, but filling your stomach with fiber, they are low glycemic vegetables and they digest slowly.
• 9:23
  Why is this important?
• 9:24
  You've always thinking, well, Dr.
• 9:25
  J, I don't want my digestion to slow down.
• 9:28
  You do because with those greens, when they digest slowly, they are keeping you more satiated so you don't have to snack.
• 9:35
  It's, allowing yourselves the opportunity to welcome those nutrients from those greens so that you don't find yourself being hungry an hour, two hours, three hours later.
• 9:45
  So we want that, that is the only case, we wanna have slow digestion.
• 9:49
  When you eat those greens., because the keep you satiated and stop the overeating.
• 9:53
  And if you cook them right, you can steam them, We don't use any processed oils with them.
• 10:00
  We can literally put them on a pot, put a little bit of coconut oil, a pinch of Himalayan pink salt.
• 10:06
  And that's it.
• 10:07
  That's it.
• 10:08
  You can add garlic.
• 10:09
  Sometimes I add garlic in mine.
• 10:11
  I will add scallion in mine.
• 10:13
  I'm Haitian.
• 10:13
  I like flavor.
• 10:14
  Cayenne peppers to spice it up, but nothing damaging.
• 10:18
  And then double portion.
• 10:20
  That's the goal.
• 10:21
  You have to double the portion size of those greens.
• 10:24
  So if you're eating lunch, make sure to double, you get two portions of those grains.
• 10:29
  If you can have all of them,, at once in one setting with one serving, that'll be amazing.
• 10:34
  But double portion of the grains, and then you can eat another portion of whatever else you have on your plate.
• 10:40
  I love those greens and some of them you can mix green smoothie with the color greens.
• 10:45
  You can make smoothie with the beet greens.
• 10:48
  You can make smoothie with mustard greens.
• 10:50
  So you can do that as well.
• 10:52
  And then when you make smoothie with them, make sure you add plenty of water.
• 10:56
  I would also add a pinch of turmeric powder in the smoothie to help with the inflammatory process as well.
• 11:04
  So again, the first food you should eat to help you lose weight because you're going to feel satiated.
• 11:11
  You're going to have less cravings.
• 11:12
  You're going to have, you're going to decrease your overeating and elongate your eating window or the greens, not kale, not spinach, these greens.
• 11:23
  The second food that I want you to pay attention to, again, we all know is healthy for us.
• 11:29
  We do it's avocado, but I want you to make it differently.
• 11:34
  I want you to make avocado mix with cucumbers with time.
• 11:40
  You can get time, you know, the spice time, time from simply organics, and then you can mix it the time with a little bit of.
• 11:48
  olive oil or coconut oil with a bit of balsamic vinegar and just pour it over the avocado and cucumbers.
• 11:55
  Not only have a mixture of omega fatty acids, but you also have water component, with the cucumbers, So you also hydrate in your cells, you're hydrating your body.
• 12:05
  So the benefit of these combination is going to help decrease insulin.
• 12:10
  So you're going to have insulin sensitivity, not resistance.
• 12:13
  It's going to help manage your blood sugar.
• 12:17
  The glucose is going to help lowering your LDL, which is the bad cholesterol because foods that are high in fat and water content and fiber can satiated after eating.
• 12:31
  Again, we want to feel satiated.
• 12:33
  We want to eat and have that feeling and also have that energy.
• 12:37
  It is never good to feel tired and sluggish and want to take a nap.
• 12:42
  It's never good.
• 12:42
  That food is not serving you.
• 12:44
  It is not serving you.
• 12:45
  We don't want that feeling.
• 12:46
  so we want to feel satiated.
• 12:47
  This is partly because fat and fiber slow the release of food from your stomach.
• 12:54
  Yes.
• 12:54
  We want that food to stay a little longer, but again, minus the bloat and the gas.
• 13:00
  We don't want to be bloated and gassy.
• 13:01
  If you do it right, You should not be bloating and gassy.
• 13:05
  Because when it stays longer in your stomach, it's making you again, feel fuller longer, which will end up going longer between meals.
• 13:14
  You will end up eating less.
• 13:15
  And then you're going to end up, you know, going more hours in between meals and you're going to end up consuming fewer calories overall.
• 13:22
  That's the science behind it.
• 13:24
  The third food that I want you to consider, again, we all know about this.
• 13:28
  are flax seeds and chi acids.
• 13:31
  Now the difference between the two and the reason why I want you to get both because they each provide something different, So flax seeds are more antioxidant and it has more calories than chi acids.
• 13:44
  Chi acids has more fiber, more zinc, more selenium.
• 13:49
  So it's good for the thyroid and less calories.
• 13:52
  I want you to combine the both of them.
• 13:54
  I put flax seeds in my, smoothies.
• 13:57
  When I do my plantain porridge, I put flax seeds in there, my pot, and I put flax seed and chi acids in there.
• 14:03
  So I'm always trying to find ways to incorporate both because of the benefits of both of them.
• 14:08
  They are both Omega-3 fatty acids, which is good, but they also have suppressed your desire to eat more.
• 14:14
  That's where the craving comes into place, by cutting calories for weight loss.
• 14:19
  and also help with digestive tract by stimulating food rich in fibers, reducing inflammation, fight autoimmune conditions, balance your hormones and blood sugar.
• 14:29
  Because remember, some of the root causes of weight gain, obesity, is hormonal imbalance.
• 14:35
  Or, you know, insulin resistance.
• 14:37
  So flaxseeds and chia seeds, if you take four tablespoons of each one of them, will benefit you in the long run.
• 14:46
  Now, one thing I want to tell you that I found the hard way.
• 14:50
  Consuming flax and chia seeds, I was getting a little bloated.
• 14:53
  Why?
• 14:53
  Because I didn't have enough water.
• 14:55
  So you got to drink plenty of water.
• 14:59
  You hear me?
• 15:00
  If you take a spoon of chia seeds and you put in water, it expands, So that's, that's the same thing in your gut.
• 15:05
  If you don't drink plenty of water, then you are going to be bloated.
• 15:09
  I promise you.
• 15:10
  Because it's going to expand into your gut and there's not enough, water to dilute it.
• 15:14
  So again, since we are going to eat four tablespoons of each, you got to drink, I would like to drink at least half a gallon of water really to decrease the bloat.
• 15:24
  It's also going to help us go to the bathroom.
• 15:26
  So which is amazing.
• 15:28
  So whenever we go to the bathroom, we eliminate, we are also losing toxins.
• 15:33
  We are also losing weight.
• 15:36
  The fourth category, which is, I have to put it in there, it's my favorite, are berries.
• 15:40
  I mean, berries, berries, berries, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, all the berries, blackberries, all the berries.
• 15:47
  that's what I'm going to say.
• 15:48
  Berries are rich in antioxidants.
• 15:50
  They have fiber, they have vitamin C.
• 15:52
  So good for you.
• 15:53
  Now, what I do with my berries to kind of up the game, I put all of them, wash them, of course, I put all of them in a bowl and then I squeeze half a lemon.
• 16:04
  on top of my berries and then I put a little, little tiny bit of pink Himalayan sea salt and just sprinkle and then I mix them all together.
• 16:14
  Amazing.
• 16:14
  So I'm getting electrolytes.
• 16:16
  I'm also getting vitamin C and then all the benefits the berries have to offer.
• 16:21
  Love, love, love, love, love those berries.
• 16:24
  The fifth, food.
• 16:25
  That one is in my ebook, My Weight and Fat Loss Roadmap ebook, as a substitute, but if you can get your hands on it, I highly, highly, highly recommend it.
• 16:36
  It is a favorite of mine, but I have to be honest with you, it's not one of the foods you can find easily.
• 16:42
  whenever I found a few of refrigeration section, in my, supermarket, I literally purchase all of them because it is so challenging to find.
• 16:52
  It's jackfruit.
• 16:53
  What is jackfruit?
• 16:54
  Google it.
• 16:55
  Jackfruit.
• 16:56
  J A C K F R U I T.
• 17:01
  jackfruit, which is a tropical fruit.
• 17:04
  I'm from Haiti.
• 17:05
  I, we have plenty of access to jackfruit.
• 17:07
  If you're from the Caribbean, you should have no shortage of jackfruit.
• 17:10
  If you live in Florida, you should have back in the South, you should be able to have access to jackfruit.
• 17:15
  The reason why I love jackfruit, because it is a replacement for meat.
• 17:20
  In my weight loss programs, I ask my patients to, to dedicate two to three days.
• 17:26
  Or a plant based diet where we don't eat meat or a game changer.
• 17:31
  So, but to also get similar benefits as the meat will provide us, we incorporate jackfruit.
• 17:38
  It serves as a meat substitute or replacement.
• 17:41
  It has tons of vitamins, fiber, vitamin C.
• 17:44
  Reduces inflammation, help with healthy skin, promotes bioregulation so we don't hold on to the toxins and fill in the pathogen and blood and sluggishness and look like we're pregnant.
• 17:57
  It is a natural caloric reducer.
• 17:59
  What does that mean?
• 18:00
  Means that you don't have to eat a lot of carbs to get the benefit of you eating carbs., that's why I love it.
• 18:07
  It helps keep you satiated for a long period of time.
• 18:11
  So therefore you're cutting back on the unnecessary snacking and grazing.
• 18:16
  So why is this important?
• 18:17
  The goal for us is to be and feel satiated.
• 18:21
  So you can see in every single food that I mentioned here, one common denominator is satiation, because that's how we're going to lose the weight.
• 18:30
  That is how we're going to balance our hormones.
• 18:32
  That's how we're going to get all the benefits and feed ourselves the nutrients they need by staying satiated.
• 18:38
  My patients are overeating.
• 18:40
  It's like you eat breakfast, you snack, you eat lunch, you snack, you eat dinner, snack.
• 18:44
  Like if you eat more than three meals, you are overeating.
• 18:47
  The goal is to eat two beautiful meals and you eat until you are satiated..
• 18:53
  The goal is not for you to starve yourself.
• 18:55
  The goal is not for you to do 500, 200 calorie diet.
• 18:59
  No, you're going to eat until you're satiated.
• 19:02
  At the same time, healing your body at the same time.
• 19:05
  Level.
• 19:06
  So these are the five foods that I highly recommend for you to incorporate in your dietary plan for weight loss.
• 19:14
  Five.
• 19:15
  In my weight loss program, if you're interested, you can schedule a consultation down below.
• 19:19
  You see the links.
• 19:20
  I incorporate all five food in my meal plans for my patients.
• 19:24
  And I do tell them where I found them and I do give them the benefits why they should be eating it because I believe each of those five foods provide different benefits and different levels of vitamins and minerals.
• 19:36
  And then if you don't have a variety of food in your meal plans in your diet, you will be missing out a few key nutrients that could be helpful on your healing journey.
• 19:48
  Five foods.
• 19:50
  Highly recommend to eat them.
• 19:51
  You will thank me.
• 19:52
  Your cravings will be less.
• 19:54
  Like if you're looking for a pill to decrease cravings and appetite suppressant, those five foods will be it.
• 20:01
  I promise you and then you don't have to count calories.
• 20:04
  You don't have to do any of those crazy things.
• 20:06
  I see people doing out there.
• 20:08
  Just eat make it simple for you.
• 20:09
  Make it easy for you.
• 20:10
  Why complicate the journey?

  Eat until you satiate it and feel amazing at the same time.
