From our earliest childhood, we learn to associate food with love and pleasure. Family dinners, BBQs in the backyard, ice cream on a hot day. Dr. Laura Mohsene shares her happy childhood memories and uncovers how over time, we may learn to use food to comfort and support ourselves when times are tough or stressful.

Healthy replacements for your pantry!

Here is some advice from Dayna on how you may improve your diet by replacing a few products you consume daily.

🔹Replace sugar with sweetener

Monk fruit Sweetener is sold at Whole Foods, Farm Boy, Superstore (in the natural/healthy section). It is a life-saver for me. It tastes so close to sugar. I sometimes add this to pancakes, smoothies or just on top of my cereal.

🔹Replace regular white bread with Flax Bread

StoneMill Sprouted Flax Bread is sold at many grocers. The flax seeds will help with digestion, and it’s a slow digesting carb. Whereas most white breads act like sugar to your body, this one will do the opposite.

🔹Replace your sweets with frozen and/or fresh fruits

Keep some frozen or fresh fruits (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries etc.) at your fridge, in case you will crave something sweet. Such snack will be more beneficial for you than cookies and candies.

Who doesn’t like breakfast sandwiches? Here are some exciting combinations you may use for it.

✅ Arugula + olive oil + lemon juice + fried egg

✅ Avocado + smoked salmon + tomatoes

✅ Turkey + fried egg + provolone cheese

✅ Goat cheese + tomato + basil

Tips: Try to go for Sprouted Bread. Avoid dressings that are high on calories, such as mayo and ranch. Do not cover your sandwich with a second piece of bread when it’s possible.
