Food is not the enemy. It’s actually our protector!
When we have high cholesterol it can clog up our arteries and lead to heart disease.
Okra has mucilage. Mucilage binds cholesterol during digestion. It is excreted through the colon.
So it’s not absorbed into the bloodstream. It’s been tested in studies and the results have been shown to have higher levels of cholesterol in the stool with lower blood cholesterol levels. Pretty cool huh!
I enjoy okra in smoothies, so it’s hidden from my taste buds and my children’s taste buds. My favorite is in a chocolate smoothie, of course it’s THM friendly.
Here is the recipe:
- 1/2 cup okra
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1/4 cup of your favorite Chocolate protein powder , no sugar added
- Here is my fave
- Or you can use 1 Tbsp Pyure, 1 Tbsp Cacao Powder, 1 Tbsp Integral Collage
- 4 ice cubes
INGREDIENTS:
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Put 1 tea bag in a 32 oz cup and pour in 1 cup hot water in the jar. (Want it to steep water bob the tea bag up and down for 2-3 minutes. )
- Remove tea bag and add 1 cup of cold water
- Add 1 TBS apple cider vinegar and add Pyure to taste.
- Stir, and fill the cup the rest of the way with ice
Tip:
***If you want it to be fizzy add carbonated water instead regular water ***
