Ave thanksgiving meal is = to smoking 7 cigarettes. Why and how to avoid... Average + 4,500 calories across day + 229 g fat + 69 g saturated fat + 450–600 g carbs + 150–200 g sugar (pies, rolls, alcohol...) + 3,000–4,500 mg sodium The damage: + massive glucose spikes + insulin surge + crash then hunger rebound + acute endothelial dysfunction + oxidative stress + immune suppression + sleep disruption Roughly equal in metabolic injury as 7 cigarettes. How to eat + start meal with small amount of nuts: macadamia nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds + roasted vegetables + legumes (lentils, beans, edamame) + add extra virgin olive oil + lean meats (no skin) Will help you avoid/minimize the real bad stuff + brown sugar sweet potatoes + marshmallow casseroles + glazed ham + rolls and stuffing + deserts Do you best to avoid alcohol entirely. Our culture around thanksgiving is literally insane. We celebrate killing ourselves.
