- A bit on the process of raising conventional meat and what all could benefit from improving the system
- How buying local, sustainable, ethical foods helps the food industry evolve - using your dollar to vote
- The major chain stores that are making big changes to support the real food movement
- Organic/grass-fed does not go hand-in-hand with what is or isn't paleo, food can be paleo if it is not organic
- Paleo was initially a set of rules, where as now it feels more like a template, which makes it more accessible and allows for self-experimentation
- Some of the biggest changes Stacy and Sarah have seen in the paleo movement from when they first began
- It is all about making the cutoff on what super nutrient dense foods are you going to embrace, versus the potential problematic foods you are going to eliminate
- The lines between the various food-belief movements are starting to soften because we are all actually getting into contemporary science to better understand what exactly is happening that makes these foods good choices
- Questions & Answers (36:25)
- Lori - can you share a bit more on the gluten cross reactivity of white rice?
- Stacy wants to remind Lori that there are many ways to incorporate carbs beyond rice, like carrots, butternut squash, yuca, taro, and cassava flour
- Merit+Fork has some AIP friendly recipes that you could use, like her banana bread recipe or her chocolate chip cookies, just omit the chocolate chips
- What gluten cross reactivity is
- Cyrex Labs food sensitivity panel to test for antibodies against certain foods
- A study that looked into this test further and checked blood samples to check for true cross reactivity
- You may have sensitivity to these foods with potential gluten cross reactivity, but it doesn't necessarily mean you need to eliminate them
- AIP has you remove everything that might be a problem and foods that are frequently contaminated with gluten
- Studies frequently show that rice is problematic for those with celiac disease, so it can be a red flag food
- You have two choices on how to approach this - go and seek out a blood test that will test for these specific antibodies or two do an elimination diet
- Either way, Sarah definitely suggests discussing this with a healthcare provider at greater detail
- Stacy recommends trying half a cup serving of rice cooked in broth with (if you tolerate it) ghee - it is the way Stacy tested her tolerance to rice
- Stacy wants to remind Lori that there are many ways to incorporate carbs beyond rice, like carrots, butternut squash, yuca, taro, and cassava flour
- Bea - what does one eat when they err on the side of vegetarianism and how do you balance your diet? What do you use for protein, besides protein powders?
- Stacy's experience with coming out of vegetarianism
- Fish is a great option for protein, as is seafood in general
- Eating other sources of lean meat, life venison or lamb, can offer better nutrients than chicken can
- Bison and grass-fed beef are also great options
- Vegetarians and their loss of stomach acid production - facilitating that change when you incorporate meat again
- The Paleo Approach has information on taking a stomach acid supplement
- You can find information at SCDLifesyle on How to Supplement with Betaine HCL for Low Stomach Acid
- If incorporating a new supplement, be sure to discuss with a medical professional before doing so
- Stool analysis can also provide insight into how well you are digesting your food
- There is information in both Beyond Bacon and on the Paleo Parents site on how to source ethically raised meats
- Stacy's feedback on protein powders - her favorite are Healthy & Fit and M&H Naturals
- What worked for Stacy when she was transitioning into a more meat based diet
- Why Stacy and Sarah don't feel that soaked and sprouted legumes are a good choice for protein
- Lori - can you share a bit more on the gluten cross reactivity of white rice?
- Sarah and family just got back from a trip to Disney and had an awesome time
- We appreciate the feedback, so be sure to leave them in iTunes or on our social media channels
