EP 145 - Top 10 TikTok Food Myths Debunked 25:37

11 dni temu25:37

25:37

Hey fitfam, welcome back to The Real Dish—where we keep it real about food, wellness, and living your best, most nourished life. I’m Chef Mareya, The Fit Foodie, and today we’re diving into the sometimes ridiculous, often confusing world of TikTok food myths. We’ve all seen those 15-second videos that swear one food will change your life, heal your gut, cure your skin, and probably pay your bills. But what’s the truth? Today, I’m breaking down 10 of the most viral food myths—and giving you the real deal on what’s fact, what’s fiction, and what’s somewhere in between. Let’s dig in! P.S. If this was helpful, would you share it with your friends and family? That's my virtual tip jar. :-) Chef Mareya Recomends For my favorite enzymes to help with digestion, try Masszymes from BIoptimzers and get an additional 10% off: https://bioptimizers.com/shop/products/masszymes I'm a big fan of electrolytes for hydration. Try out Sports Research electrolytes, made with coconut water and no artificial colors, flavors or sweeteners. https://www.sportsresearch.com/products/hydrate-electrolytes-packets I've been loving the greens, too! https://www.sportsresearch.com/products/organic-greens Show notes: Myth #1: “Raw garlic on an empty stomach kills parasites and viruses.” Garlic is powerful, no doubt. It has antimicrobial and heart-loving properties—but eating it raw on an empty stomach like it’s some ancient cure-all? That’s a bit of a reach. What’s real:Allicin—the active compound in garlic—is legit, especially when garlic is crushed and left to sit for 10 minutes. But no, it’s not going to wipe out every parasite or virus in your body. And your breath? Let's just say...social distancing might apply. Myth #2: “Seed oils are toxic and should be avoided at all costs.” This one has TikTok in a chokehold. While ultra-refined seed oils used in fast food and packaged snacks can contribute to inflammation, the word “toxic” is being thrown around way too loosely. What’s real:Balance is the name of the game. Minimize processed foods, yes. But there’s no need to panic over a bit of sunflower oil in your hummus. Instead, prioritize whole, anti-inflammatory fats like olive oil, avocado, nuts, and seeds. Myth #3: “Fruit is bad because it’s full of sugar.” Let me just say this loud for the people in the back: Fruit is NOT the enemy. What’s real:Fruit contains natural sugars, sure—but it also comes with fiber, water, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It supports gut health, brain function, and heart health. Want to balance your blood sugar? Pair fruit with protein or fat. Don’t fear the banana. Myth #4: “Chlorophyll water clears your skin and makes you smell better.” It sounds magical. Glowy skin and minty freshness just by sipping green water? Mmm… not quite. What’s real:Chlorophyll has some antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, but the effects from bottled chlorophyll water are minor at best. If it’s part of your healthy habits and makes you drink more water, cool. Just don’t expect it to replace your skincare or deodorant. Myth #5: “Celery juice cures everything.” It’s green, it’s trendy, and it had a serious moment on TikTok. But the cure-all claims? Overstated. What’s real:Celery juice is hydrating and contains some minerals, but there’s zero scientific proof that it heals chronic illnesses or balances your gut on its own. Want the benefits of celery? Just eat the whole stalk—and include it in a nutrient-dense, fiber-rich diet. Myth #6: “The carnivore diet is the healthiest way to eat.” Meat-only diet = peak health? That’s what some TikTokers claim. But science and long-term health markers say otherwise. What’s real:Eliminating ultra-processed foods can make any restrictive diet feel good at first. But going completely carnivore cuts out essential fiber, antioxidants, and plant compounds that support your gut, heart, and brain. Long-term? It can increase your risk of nutrient imbalances, inflammation, and chronic disease. Plants matter. Period. Myth #7: “You should never eat after 6 PM.” TikTok loves a strict rule. But food timing isn’t one-size-fits-all. What’s real:Late-night eating can disrupt digestion and sleep if you’re overeating or eating heavy, sugary foods. But your metabolism doesn’t just shut off at 6 PM. Focus on what and how much you’re eating, not just the clock. Myth #8: “Frozen fruits and veggies are less nutritious than fresh.” This one's an old myth that keeps getting recycled. TikTok just made it trend again. What’s real:Frozen produce is often flash-frozen at peak ripeness, locking in nutrients. In some cases, it can even be more nutritious than “fresh” produce that’s been sitting in transit or on store shelves for days. Keep your freezer stocked—it's a budget-friendly nutrition hack. Myth #9: “You need to drink a gallon of water a day.” It sounds simple and motivational: a gallon a day keeps the toxins away. But is it necessary? What’s real:Hydration matters—but your needs vary by body size, activity, climate, and diet. Forcing a gallon of water can actually flush out electrolytes and leave you feeling off. Instead, drink consistently, watch your urine color (pale yellow is ideal), and eat hydrating foods like fruits and veggies. Myth #10: “Alkaline foods can change your body’s pH and prevent disease.” The “alkaline diet” trend got a boost on TikTok with claims that it prevents cancer, cures inflammation, and balances your pH. Sounds great, right? What’s real:Your body tightly regulates blood pH on its own. You cannot change your body’s overall pH through food. That said, alkaline foods like leafy greens, fruits, and veggies are still great for you—not because of their pH, but because they’re packed with nutrients. So yes to greens, no to magical thinking. The Real Dish Takeaway Host:Here’s what I want you to walk away with: The truth isn’t always trending—but it always works. Don’t let a 15-second video override your common sense or your body’s wisdom. Be curious, question boldly, and nourish yourself with balance, not extremes. If this episode cleared the confusion for you, share it with a friend who’s been sucked into the TikTok rabbit hole. And DM me if there’s a myth you want me to bust next. I’m here for it. Until next time, eat like you give a fork.Love you, mean it. Bye!…

EP 138 - Detox without the Drama: How to easily release toxins every day for a healthier life 31:43

15 weeks temu31:43

31:43

Detox Without the Drama" Welcome to The Real Dish ! I’m Chef Mareya, your guide to practical, no-nonsense conversations about health, wellness, and living your best life. Today, we’re tackling a hot topic: detoxing. But let’s get real—most detox plans are dramatic, extreme, and, frankly, unsustainable. So in this episode, we’re going to explore how to detox without the drama. No juice cleanses, no starvation, no gimmicks—just simple, effective ways to help your body do what it’s already designed to do. Why Detox Isn’t What You Think First, let’s debunk the detox myth. Your body already has built-in detox systems—your liver, kidneys, lungs, and even your skin are working 24/7 to eliminate toxins. So, you don’t need a magic potion or expensive cleanse to “detox.” What we can do, though, is support those systems. Think of it like giving your body a little extra love so it can function more efficiently. A real detox is less about deprivation and more about nourishment. The Foundations of Gentle Detox So, how do we detox without all the drama? It starts with a few simple, foundational habits: Hydration: Water is your body’s best friend when it comes to flushing out toxins. Aim for at least 8 glasses a day, and consider starting your morning with warm lemon water—it’s a gentle way to kickstart your digestion. Fiber-Rich Foods: Fiber helps your body eliminate waste. Load up on fruits, veggies, whole grains, and legumes. Think colorful salads, roasted veggies, and hearty soups. Sweating it Out: Exercise and even a relaxing sauna session can help your body eliminate toxins through sweat. Bonus: it boosts your mood, too! Clean Eating: Focus on whole, unprocessed foods. Cut back on sugar, alcohol, and packaged snacks, and let your meals revolve around fresh ingredients. My Favorite Detox Superfoods Let’s talk about some of my go-to foods for supporting detox: Cruciferous Vegetables: Broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and kale are rich in compounds that support liver detoxification. Citrus Fruits: Lemons, oranges, and grapefruits are high in vitamin C, which helps your body neutralize toxins. Herbs and Spices: Turmeric, cilantro, and ginger are fantastic for reducing inflammation and supporting detox pathways. Sea Vegetables: Kelp and other seaweeds are great for removing heavy metals and supporting thyroid health. And, of course, I have to give a shoutout to my Superfood Sprinkle, which contains detox superstars like kelp, turmeric, and cayenne. A sprinkle here and there can make a big difference! Lifestyle Detox Tips Detox isn’t just about food. It’s also about reducing the toxic load in your environment. Here are a few lifestyle tips: Clean Up Your Skincare and Household Products: Switch to natural, non-toxic products wherever possible. Your skin absorbs what you put on it, so this is a big one. Get Enough Sleep: Sleep is when your body repairs itself and clears out waste. Aim for 7-9 hours a night. Breathe Clean Air: Open your windows, add some air-purifying plants to your home, and, if needed, invest in an air purifier. Digital Detox: Sometimes, detoxing isn’t just about your body—it’s about your mind. Take breaks from screens and social media to reset and recharge. A Simple Daily Detox Routine Host: If you’re wondering how to pull all this together, here’s a simple daily detox routine: Morning: Start with a glass of warm lemon water and a short walk to get your blood flowing. Throughout the Day: Eat colorful, whole foods and stay hydrated. Add detox-friendly spices like turmeric or cayenne to your meals. Evening: Take a few minutes to wind down with a gentle stretch or meditation, and aim for a good night’s sleep. It’s all about creating a rhythm that feels good and supports your body. And that’s The Real Dish on detoxing without the drama! Remember, you don’t need a drastic plan or expensive products to feel your best. Focus on small, consistent steps that support your body, and you’ll be amazed at how much better you feel. Thanks for tuning in, and until next time, let’s keep it real and keep it simple.

Nowadays, there’s a LOT of sizzling conversation semaglutides, aka Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro, which are actually intended for people with Type 2 diabetes to help manage blood glucose levels. At the time of this recording, they are not FDA approved for weight loss, but because they have an off-label side effect of weight loss, and have the Hollywood blessing, a lot of people are on the bandwagon. Megastars like Oprah put a spotlight on it in her recent Weight Special on national television. What people don’t really see is that once you start taking these, this is intended to to be a long-term treatment, injected into your body once a week. Now, can we achieve stable blood sugar levels outside of an injection? Yes you can! Over the decade that I have been helping people live a thriving, fitlife – whether through the Daniel Plan that I helped create or my books, programs or talks - I’ve seen it happen thousands of times when lifestyle habits shift.

But there's much more to Jared Maynard story and it has to do with the importance of being in the right shape to fight for your life. Jared is a Physical Therapist, business owner, powerlifter, strength coach, husband and father of 3 girls who found out how strength training saves lives this year. After spending years in the gym training his mind and body, tragedy struck. He was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease called HLH that almost killed him. It took 5 weeks on life support and many months of rehabilitation for him to learn how to walk, talk and breathe on his own again. While on life support, he was so weak that he couldn't receive nutrition for weeks. The muscle he spent years building in the gym became the fuel that sustained him to better days. Now, as Jared continues through recovery, his mission is stronger than ever: To help as many people as possible become so strong that they barely recognize themselves. To help them feel empowered to take on whatever life throws at them. To help them keep showing up for their spouses, kids friends and clients. Jared works full time in his online strength coaching business, Unbreakable Strength, to do exactly that. When he's not working, you can find him reading superhero books with his daughters, sipping on delicious coffee and enjoying life in the Canadian countryside.

We’ve heard it, and it’s engrained in us. Food is medicine. But really, let’s dive deep down into this idea. How did they deal with disease thousands of years ago, before conventional medicine and antibiotics? The answer was in nature. Ancient civilizations became masters of using plants and herbs as their remedies. And the pharmaceuticals we have now are often derived from those medicinal plants – like garlic, onions, turmeric, thyme, black seed and so many more. The use of spices and herbs with antimicrobial activity was necessary to ward off the threat of food-borne pathogens and life-threatening illnesses. While there’s no silver bullet, we can take big strides in protecting our incredible bodies from succumbing to sickness with my top 8 immunity boosting foods that help every system in your body - and delicious to boot. **Get 40% off and additional 15% off (55% off!) subscriptions at www.Goli.com with my code EATCLEANER and get my favorite Goli Gummies including, ACV, Beets, Ashwaganda, Pre and Post Probiotics, Sleep and Women's Complete Multi.
