I just received my Zoe results today.

What is Zoe?

Zoe is a company that analyzes metabolism, including how one’s blood response to fat and sugar.

Zoe measures “dietary Inflammation” partly by examining how the body metabolizes sugar and fat.

To participate in the Zoe study, you agree to eat muffins with certain ingredients on two different days (the ingredients differ in each batch of muffins). During this time, you wear a subcutaneous glucose sensor and scan your blood sugar at specific times as designated by the “Zoe Test” app.

The test also asks for one finger prick test to assess blood fat levels and one stool sample to determine “gut health” measures of both healthy and unhealthy bacteria.

Keep in mind, I eat fairly healthy. I don’t eat red meat or drink alcohol. I eat clean a good percent of the time. Also, during my Zoe test, my blood sugar was always within normal range. Another thing to note is that I have a chronic sinus infection in my left nare an frequently (at least quarterly) take antibiotics (i.e., Septra or doxycycline). Taking antibiotics obviously changes gut health significantly.

How’d I fare? I was actually somewhat surprised of my results.

Keep in mind, I know from my 23andme results that I’m at risk for diabetes mellitus type II due to my genetics (as well as my family history).

Good news first — my blood fat control was considered “good”. Though, quite frankly, it is quite next to the “poor” mark!

Now, for the not-so-good news — my blood sugar control was considered “poor”.

How is all of this useful? Zoe uses this information to deliver a “food score” per food item that is individualized to the user.

I’m learning more now about my scores in the “Zoe Insights” App. I’ll let you know as soon as I play with it a bit. Tomorrow is my official start date for using the app and tracking my meals to see their score.

Hope you’re having a great week!

Today started out super ️ sunny and now it’s suddenly a  downpour! My, how quickly things can change…

So, back to the question, are restaurants your enemy?

In a word…NO!

“Good eats” outside the home can be “healthy eats”, including fast food!

Many people think you MUST eat at home to stay healthy.

The truth is you can eat whole foods on-the-go just as easily as you can buy junk food for home.

In fact, check out this from a new place in town, Pita Mediterranean! #WholeFoodsGood

Featured below, it’s grilled chicken kabobs, hummus with cilantro, & grilled zucchini!

Here are some things to keep in mind when eating out:

• You have choices! Most restaurants (including fast food) have healthy options. Think grilled chicken! Some fast food places even have broccoli or apples as a side option!
• Portion sizes matter. Many times food portions obtained on-the-go (especially sit down restaurants) are twice as big (if not more) as you may need. So, just take some home for another meal! You’re not a turkey, so don’t stuff yourself too full!
• You can request customization. Remove this, add that, etc.! Just ask! Don’t eat junk when you can just leave it off.
• Food is also sold at grocery stores! Whole foods are available at most grocery stores in the deli/bakery section. Just stay away from the pastries (unless it’s leg day)!

I know you’ve found these tips helpful, and I’d love to help you more!
