Thanks Sophie, so true. I've found that eliminating refined sugar, oils, fried foods, processed foods, and refined wheat (I'm highly gluten intolerant, but still eat sprouted grain bread occasionally with no problem) has been the biggest game changer, weight coming off daily since giving those up. Intact grains are not the problem! Sprouted even better!
I recently found Oat Groats and am in love. I love the texture and my stomach always feels so relaxed and satisfied after I eat a bowl. I add some cooked lentils to the bowl too. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! So helpful.
Thank you for sharing this amazing info! I can’t sleep on low carb diet! And when I tried keto I was insomniac. It’s a horrible feeling being tired and wired.
Sweet potatoes!!! My favorite way is "roasted" cubes in the airfryer. I have done in the oven too. That over a beautiful full and varied salad is so filling and yummy.
Sophie, I love you and your content! I love, love, love the green paint color in your kitchen eating area! Will you share the paint color and brand with me? I am redcorating my bathroom, and that would be the perfect color! Thank you in advance!
Thank you Sophie for a very informative video. I'm 72 and not really over weight but I'm looking for a healthier way of eating. I have never heard of oat groats. I will check them out and I have heard of farro but have never cooked it. I do think a recipe video on how to use some of these things you've mentioned would be great!
Excellent. I've lost 23lbs so far following this style of eating. High carb, low fat, low calorie density, high nutrient dense foods. Got to love potatoes
Thank you! Great information! I recently started eating oat groats, I make a mini crockpot of them and have them handy all week for breakfast, the recipe from the How NOT to Diet cookbook. A great video idea would be if you showed meals with all of these things.
Thank you for this video! I love fruit and eat it every day. I like sweet potatoes but sometimes feel like a white potato and actually ate one last night. I've heard that white potatoes can spike your blood sugar. Do you think that's true?
Yes they can elevate your blood sugar a little. But if you eat them with a plant-based meal, you have tons of fiber to blunt that spike. Sweet potatoes are better, but a white potato once in a while won't hurt.
I love fruits so much BUT I learned that our liver is our only organ able to metabolize fruit and it causes fatty liver ??? If that’s not true I will be so happy !!! 🍏 🍌 🍇 🍊
Can oat groats be used in place of barely for like a barely soup recipe? I have a gluten intolarence so cant eat barely but the oat groats cooked looks just like it

That is a GREAT video idea!! And I love the How Not To Diet Cookbook too!!
Sophie, how do you make those oil free air fryer sweet potatoes? Can I have your recipe, please? 🙂
Thank u Sophie 💕why though did you eliminate oil in your cooking ?
Sophie follows a WFPB plan and oils are processed.
@@helpimlost.62 thank u
That is a great answer! They're also concentrated saturated fat, and I just wanted to eliminate those as much as possible!

Yes they totally can. And I use them all the time for this very reason.
Anything wrong with making sweet potato fries with Avocado oil?
Thanks for another great video! What are your thoughts on lectins being a problem for so many people?
I think this video is SO informative about lectins: nutritionfacts.org/video/dr-gundrys-the-plant-paradox-is-wrong/
Love your videos on healthy eating for women.
Thank you, Christine! Let me know if you have any topic requests!!
Me too! 🙂🌱🍎
mmmm I LOVE Farro!
