Why Dr. Hoody endorses this recipe:

Almonds deliver a massive amount of nutrients. 6 g of protein, 3.5 g of fiber, 14 g of fat, but nine of those are mono unsaturated. They also contain vitamin E, manganese and magnesium and a decent amount of copper, riboflavin and phosphorus. Furthermore almonds are loaded with antioxidants and can assist with blood sugar control, which makes them a perfect choice for people with diabetes. Almonds can also help control blood pressure and can lower cholesterol levels. And for weight loss, eating almonds reduces hunger, lowering a person’s overall calorie intake.

 Sauerkraut is a special food that stems from its added benefits during fermentation. The Fermentation process gives it probiotic factors which can also boost the immune system. One serving has 16 cal, 1 g of protein, 3 g of carbohydrate, 0 g of fat and 2 g of fiber. It contains vitamin C, K, B6, iron, manganese, folate, copper and potassium.  Sauerkraut can help with weight loss due to its high fiber and low calories. Somehow sauerkraut has been known to reduce the fat around the belly. Sauerkraut has also been found to improve memory and decrease stress by increasing the absorption of mood regulating minerals including magnesium and zinc.

Cobb salad is one of my favorites. An ideal diet should contain a large amount of vegetables and also a good amount of healthy, natural protein. That’s Cobb salad! 

Greens, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, and lots of them, supply ample servings of vegetables for your daily needs. Then mix in your favorite proteins like feta cheese, avocado, chicken or turkey breast, and even a small amount of bacon to make it really tasty. And last, Garnish with your favorite spices and dress with olive oil, lemon and/ or vinegar.
