23.01.2022 What a good-looking bunch! This is our group for The Daniel Plan program this term. We had our first session on Thursday night and what fun it was! Thrilled that we get to spend 8 weeks with these lovely people, learning together about God's best for all aspects of our health.

16.01.2022 I receive a lot of questions about coconut oil. Coconut oil is healthy but only as part of an overall healthy diet not as the main course. It raises HDL, the go...od cholesterol. It improves the quality and size and type of cholesterol. It lowers the total cholesterol to HDL ratio. And cultures with 60 percent of their diet as coconut oil have no heart disease. It also contains a unique type of saturated fat called MCT oil that boosts metabolism, reverses insulin resistance, and improves cognitive function. Coconut oil is also anti-fungal and anti-microbial and it contains lauric acid that is great for immune function. The only other good source of lauric acid is breast milk, which contains 24 percent saturated fat far higher than the 6 percent the AHA recommends. You want to stay away from trans fats, hydrogenated oils, peanut oil, soybean oil, canola oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, vegetable oil, vegetable shortening, and margarine. Vegetable oils like canola oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, and safflower oil are high in omega-6 fats and omega-6s can increase inflammation. When your body has too much omega-6 and not enough omega-3, the natural result is chronic inflammation, which promotes a variety of diseases. I write much more about all these topics in my new book, "Food: What the Heck Should I Eat?" foodthebook.com See more
16.01.2022 This is one of the things we discussed in our FOOD workshop last night.
11.01.2022 Hello friends! It's less than a month to go until The Daniel Plan Busselton groups recommence for 2018 and I'm excited! Michael and I are thrilled to have a full group for the 8 week program in term 1, commencing on February 15. Sorry if you've missed out on a spot!... Many of you will have heard that we are moving to Perth at the end of this year and we are praying that The Daniel Plan will continue in Busselton even after we've gone. If you are interested in doing the 8 week program with us before we go please let me know and we can place your name on a list for either term 2 or 3. The dates for those terms are: 10 May - 28 June 2 August - 20 September Mandy

Sign up and you will receive an email each day for 8 days with your link to the day's episode. If you watch it, or watched last time, I'd love to hear from you!
09.01.2022 Day 9 of our detox...and we're going great! We've all commented that we're enjoying the new foods/recipes we're trying more than what we were having before. This week we are having some grains but definitely no gluten. I made the granola with buckwheat (which Michael and Toby love!) and we'll be having brown rice tomorrow night. Last night's dinner was one of the best meals I've made for a long time - tray bake chicken frajitas (from the Woolworths magazine) with coconut tort...illas from Pete Evans' new book, "Low Carb, Healthy Fat". I've made the frajitas before and it's a favourite dish. Just use coconut oil instead of olive because the temp of the oven is too high. We obviously didn't use the yoghurt sauce or any cheese. The tortillas were so good that I've made another batch this afternoon - by far the best gluten-free wrap I've come across and super easy to make! Pete's book is available for $24 at Kmart.
08.01.2022 Your goal is to eat real, whole food. Food that grows on a plant versus processed foods that do your body harm. It’s all about learning to love foods that love ...you back. Make it your goal to follow The Daniel Plan plate 90 percent of the time. And always remember: It’s about progress, not perfection. #GodlyGoalsRequireFaith See more
04.01.2022 Our brand new group for The Daniel Plan Busselton commenced last week. It's going to be a great term!.
03.01.2022 Functional Medicine seeks out the root causes of illness so that we can address the underlying triggers that have thrown the patient off balance. In order to he...al properly, the whole patient requires attention; that includes the emotions, thoughts, and spirit of a human beingnot just the physical body. I always say that getting healthy is a team sport, and unfortunately, many of us are lacking the positive encouragement and supportive relationships we need in order to move toward our best selves. We now know that feeling socially isolated can actually make you sick. And the quality of relationships a person has plays an important role in the concept of community, as even people who are married or in long-term relationships still report to feeling lonely when they don’t feel truly connected to the people in their circle. We are social beings and thrive with connection; we also literally become like the people with whom we surround ourselves. So if your friends are drinking green juice and doing yoga, you’re more likely to do the same. Remember, friend-power is more powerful than willpower, and that comes in the form of a supportive and aligned community. See more
02.01.2022 I was trying to come up with a savoury afternoon snack for my teenage son while we're on the detox and suddenly remembered popcorn! Yesterday I made a batch (minus the butter and honey) and both my son and husband are loving it. This method works so well and doesn't require a microwave oven. It's a simple, healthy, inexpensive snack and is gluten and dairy free.
02.01.2022 Our industrial food system enables a national diet of sugary, starchy, overly processed, nutrient-depleted foods. Whenever you eat something containing wheat fl...our, you might as well be mainlining sugar. Whole grain is a marketing term. When we eat food with labels touting whole-grain flour, we automatically assume that we’re eating whole grains. We’re not. In my new book, "Food: What the Heck Should I Eat?" I’ll tell you how to read a label so you can determine whether what you’re buying is marketing hype or actually healthy. I’ve seen bread from a major commercial bakery boasting not one, but several ancient healthful grains, like amaranth. But when you read the ingredients (in small print on the back), you see that that these grains are way down at the end of the list, meaning they are the smallest part of the mix. Chances are, you’re not going to get a whole lot of unrefined grain nutrition in that loaf. This is why I’ve designated a whole sections of my book to topics like sugar and grains, to dispel the myths about these tricky, ubiquitous substance in my new book so you can make the most-informed decisions about what to eat and what to avoid. www.foodthebook.com See more
01.01.2022 It's day 6 of our 10 day gluten & dairy detox...which we've now decided to do for 2 weeks. We are not finding it difficult at all and each one of us is enjoying trying new things. Michael has noticed less "sniffies" (snot/hayfever) and Toby's skin looks a little clearer. Too soon yet to draw any conclusions though. Dinners have been very easy for us as a family - the majority of our recipes don't contain gluten or dairy. We had Pete Evans' "Butter" Chicken - which is made wit...h coconut oil instead of butter - paired with cauliflower and broccoli rice. Another night we had salmon with kale chips and coleslaw. Lunches for me have been one of three things: leftovers from dinner, 2-egg omelette with mushrooms, red onion & smashed avocado or veggie sticks with my dairy-free pesto and a hard-boiled egg. The oat-free granola and stewed fruit has been thoroughly enjoyed for breakfast and today I made some chocanana mousse - FOR BREAKFAST!! It's that good for you! BASIL CASHEW PESTO Ingredients: 1 cup cashews (toasted if you like, I don't bother) leaves from one bunch of basil (substitute with coriander if you prefer) 2 garlic cloves, peeled 1 tbsp savoury yeast flakes (nutritional yeast) 1 tsp sea salt 3/4 cup macadamia oil Directions: Place all of the ingredients into a blender/food processor and whip up until you reach your desired texture. CHOCANANA MOUSSE Makes 4 Ingredients: 270 ml can coconut milk 2 tbsp whole, raw almonds or almond meal 4 tbsp cacao 1 tsp cinnamon pinch of sea salt 6 fresh dates, pitted 1/4 cup nut butter (I used macadamia) 4 small bananas, chopped and frozen Directions: Place all ingredients into a high-powered blender. Blend until fully combined and creamy. Serve up into 4 small bowls, jars or glasses and refrigerate until needed. Delicious with berries and a sprinkling of granola!

01.01.2022 Here’s a simple way to know whether a food is non-food: If it takes longer to read and understand the label than to eat it, it’s probably not food. If it has ingredients that your great-grandmother would not have used in cooking meals for her family, then likely it is not food.
