Ordinary Vegan Podcast #55 - Vegan Tips For Embracing A Plant-Based Lifestyle Apr 10, 2019

Show notes

Whether you're giving up animal products for your health, animal rights or climate change, you may need assistance. Today we discuss some tried and tested vegan tips to help this process go more smoothly.

Here are a few problems we explore.

Eating out or not knowing what to feed your non-vegan family can be challenging. These vegan tips should help you survive as a vegan in a multi-vore household.

Leading a busy lifestyle, eating out and trying to find quick plant-based options are also addressed. As more and more fast food restaurants offer vegan selections, the simpler it becomes. Learn your options in today's podcast.

Additionally, it is not always going to be easy, but remember that "straying maps the path." From the inspiring wisdom of Rumi's poem "The Sight Of A Soul."

My interpretation of that poem is until we stray from the path we will never know what is waiting for us.

Furthermore, change is scary. But Rumi also says "when you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you." And big changes, like eating plant-based, bring big positive consequences!

I hope today's vegan tips help you begin or continue on your path towards veganism.

Other topics discussed today include the April 2019 supplement study from researchers from Tuft's University. You can learn more here.

Vegan Tips Recipe of The Day

Ordinary Vegan's recipe of the day is Marinated Seitan Sandwich with Spicy Red Cabbage Slaw. We also discussed Ordinary Vegan's Beef Stew and Vegan Gravy.

Thanks to our sponsor, Clean Lean Protein from Nuzest. To order your special clean lean protein starter pack with FREE SHIPPING, go to Nuzest.us/ov today.

Additionally, I am devoted to keeping you healthy, so I began creating my own line of CBD oil made from hemp to assist you.

CBD oil is a natural compound found in the hemp plant.

Despite its close relation (cousin) to psychoactive cannabis, hemp and hemp-derived products don't make you high.

In December 2018, The Farm Bill was passed making hemp and CBD oil from hemp federally legal.

I choose to provide CBD oil to our community because all CBD is not created equal and many companies import their CBD from China. Those oils can contain contaminants, pesticides and heavy metals. I wanted to make sure you received the safest and most reliable Vegan CBD oil on the market.

Just go to OrdinaryVegan.net to order.

Helping people naturally is what CBD is all about, and I hope it can help you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at questions@ordinaryvegan.net or visit our FAQ page.

Ordinary Vegan Podcast #53- What Is Sugar & Which Sugars Are Healthy Mar 19, 2019

Show notes

Fifty-years-ago, the sugar industry funded research that downplayed the risks of sugar and highlighted the hazards of fat. Forty-years-ago, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) started trickling into our food supply. Most people didn't know what HFCS was. So began the confusion about what is sugar and what sugars are healthy.

When I decided to tackle the subject of sugar, one of the most surprising statistics I found out is that 99% of toddlers ages 12 to 18 months are downing 5-7 teaspoons of added sugar a day. Not only that, the average sugar consumption for adults is 25 teaspoons a day. Well over the recommended amounts.

Since the discovery of high fructose corn syrup, the American consumption of fructose jumped from 37 grams per day in the 1970s to a record high of 62 grams per day in 2000.

So where is all this added sugar coming from? Here is an example. A 20 oz soft drink contains about 16 teaspoons of high fructose corn syrup, and an energy drink can hold over 50 grams of high fructose corn syrup. Salad dressings, ketchup, fruit drinks and even bread can have a large amounts of sugar. And most people have no idea they are consuming this much-added sugar.

In today's podcast, we break down the truth about sugar, and how it impacts our health. We also examine natural sugars and their role in a healthy diet.

We also discuss why sugar may not be vegan due to its questionable infiltration.

Ordinary Vegan Podcast #52- Protecting The Environment Begins With You Feb 19, 2019

Show notes

It's no secret that human activity is changing the climate. For many, how to protect the environment can seem like a daunting task.

In October 2018, the United Nations top climate science panel gathered in South Korea to prepare a new report on climate change. Their report stated the starkest warnings to date of the consequences of climate change.

They predicted if significant steps were not taken, global warming could create extreme heat, drought, floods, poverty, and trillions of dollars in debt.

Not long after, in December 2018, The EAT-Lancet Commission on Food, Planet and Health was released. This commission brings together more than 30 world-leading scientists from across the globe to reach a scientific consensus that defines a healthy, sustainable diet.

Their findings were equally as dire. The report revealed that if we don't make a radical change in diet and food production, we could be facing catastrophic damage to our planet.

The good news is you don't have to feel helpless about the future of the planet. Because how to protect the environment begins with you. And there are positive steps we can do to tackle climate change right now.

Today's podcast focuses on unexpected ways you can help.

Thanks for listening and always remember to reduce, reuse, and recycle because how to protect the environment begins with you.

Ordinary Vegan Podcast #50: What is Joy & How Joy Can Improve Your Health Jan 12, 2019

Show notes

Positive emotions have been linked with better health, longer life, and a greater sense of well being.

If you are reading this, then you already are seeking to live a healthier lifestyle, And a healthy lifestyle brings longevity. We talk so much about living longer but do we ask ourselves enough "why do we want to live longer?"

What is our sense of purpose that gets us up every day and brings us pure joy?

Today, we live in a world we can never escape. Our phones are continually pinging us with bad news. Social media is dividing us more than connecting us.

A growing body of evidence shows that this constant barrage of news and sharing on social media can lead to depression and increased feelings of inadequacy.

Many studies have shown that people who are unhappy are three to ten times more likely to get sick and die prematurely compared to those who have a stronger sense of connection, joy, and community.

Today we explore the idea of giving up everything that doesn't bring us joy. We also discuss what is joy and how we can bring more joy into our lives.

Ordinary Vegan Podcast #49: Allergy Causes, Allergy Symptoms & Prevention Dec 19, 2018

Show notes

Each year, over 50 million Americans experience various types of allergies.

Many of these allergic conditions are on the rise.

In medicine, the hygiene hypothesis states a lack of early childhood exposure to germs suppresses the natural development of the immune system.

In other words, living conditions in much of the world might be too clean and being exposed to germs as a child may protect us from allergies.

An additional theory is that the increased antibiotic use parallels the rise in allergies and asthma.

But other research suggests that the rising prevalence of allergies are the result of many factors.

Bottom line, no one really knows the why, but there are ways we can protect ourselves.

Today we will explore the most common allergy causes, symptoms, and prevention.

Discover what allergen triggers could be lurking in your home. Learn the difference between cold and allergy symptoms. Find out some plant-based substitutions for common food allergies.

Last but not least, I will reveal three foods that can help relieve your allergies.

Hope you enjoy today's podcast.

Ordinary Vegan Podcast #47: Dream Interpretation with Tricia Kelly Nov 02, 2018

Show notes

You may think dream interpretation is an unusual subject for a health and wellness podcast, but dreaming is an important function for our emotional health. Dreams are often the way the brain solves problems and deals with our concerns.

Furthermore, some psychologists think that dreams are nothing more than random brain activity. While others like Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung believe that dreams can reveal a person's deepest unconscious wishes and desire.

In particular, Freud's work on dreams explored the possibility of universal symbols in dreams. However, he was cautious about symbols and believed that symbols are more personal rather than universal. In other words, no one dream interpretation fits all.

And why do the same dreams reoccur? Why do you keep dreaming of missing a plane or having to cram for a college exam after you graduated from college? Some people even dream that they are being murdered or murdering someone else.

Above all, lengthy, distressful, or violent nightmares can disrupt our sleep and as we all know rest is essential to human health.

Today, we learn how to analyze our dreams and why it is important with dream expert, Tricia Kelly.

Tricia Kelly teaches an inspirational blend of Western and Eastern wisdom. Her thirty-eight years of teaching are enhanced with perspectives gained from traveling the world. She includes in her work the dream symbolism and wisdom of psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, Carl Jung and Edward Edinger.

Tricia's philosophy is that dreams are simply a doorway into our deeper selves, and teach us who we are and how we are made.

Tricia has an office in Costa Mesa, California. She is currently traveling and will begin meeting new clients in February 2019. You can reach her at dreamdrop676@gmail.com.

Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy the podcast.
