Quick answers
Short questions, straight answers.
The things you look up at 9 PM, answered in two sentences. Tap one to read it.
All quick answersWhat do I eat when I'm too tired to cook?
A ready protein, something fresh and a carb you cooked ahead. Then season it like you mean it.
How much protein do I actually need?
Many women do well aiming for about 25 to 30 grams at each meal. Breakfast is where most of us fall short.
Do detox teas actually work?
Your liver and kidneys already handle detoxing. Most detox teas mainly act as laxatives. Put that money toward water, fiber, real food and sleep instead.
What oil should I cook with?
Extra virgin olive oil for most cooking and finishing. Avocado oil, ghee or coconut oil for high heat. Butter when you want flavor.
How do I reheat food without a microwave?
Rice and grains: a hot skillet with a splash of water, 2 to 3 minutes. Sweet potatoes and proteins: oven or air fryer at 375 to 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes.
