10 HEALTHY FOOD ALTERNATIVES THAT KEEP ME ON TRACK, guys and welcome back to another video so today's video I'm going to be showing you all of the food swaps that I have made that keep me on track that are just a little bit of a better alternative now before we get into this video be sure to hit that subscribe button and like make sure you hit that like button you know to support your girly and without further due let's get into this video and it's gonna be a good one so stay tuned now what I want to say is why there's no food in my opinion has a title it's not gonna be good it's not gonna be bad food these swaps are not going to be me saying you know you're swapping your bad foods for your good food.
I just want to put out there because everybody is different and their requirements are different these are just much more nutritional based swaps and alternatives that I have personally opted for and they just keep me on track and keep me going my schedule is always so busy busy busy on-the-go that now that I've opted for these better swaps in my opinion there's just a bit easier for me to keep on track with things also what we're thinking about the pain is hell oh it's growing she's growing the hair is growing okay must be all this food swaps her joking okay so the first healthy food swap is the salad dress that you're using.
I don't even know why I'm showing you this one like let's pretend this is like the the not so good salad dressing that has all those hidden ingredients have all those hidden nasty shiz in okay but this is actually good one you know so we're just going to pretend I have like the bad one so it's salad dressing sometimes they've got some hidden in there that you don't even know you can't even read the ingredients properly so we want to stay away from that we want some wholesome nutritional food in our system to help us keep going throughout the day and it's good for you so a great times it would be olive oil lemon juice pink Himalayan salt some chives and fresh chilies a little bit of Dijon mustard if you fancy you can make a really nice salad dressing I always have the same dressing olive oil lemon salt and pepper bish bash Bosh .
I know exactly what's going into my salad dressing and I'm not messing around with any unneeded ingredients that I simply cannot pronounce so that's one healthy swap that you can opt for the second swap we're going to be doing is normal salt swapping it over for pink Himalayan salt this is something that my dad told me to start doing and honestly I used to think salt is salt it's fine but a lot of you will have high cholesterol and a lot of people can't have salt in their diet but pink Himalayan salt is a little bit of a healthier option so definitely buy it making this simple food swap it's just made a difference and it's so easy to swap it's not like something's drastically changed in my diet it's just something that I now opt for and it's accessible absolutely everywhere when I hope it is you can buy on Amazon keep did you say that you could buy pink Himalayan salt Alison.
I don't even have a link for you I'm gonna have to find it yourselves but yeah pink Himalayan salt for your swap so a lot of people what they tend to do especially when they make pasta this is what I do so I'm actually putting my hands up to this but if you have time instead of just using your standard pasta sauce that you buy it off the shelf make it yourself you can use some chopped tomatoes canned ones or chopped fresh ones up for yourself and then you can add herbs spices some fresh garlic some fresh onion and you know exactly what is going into that recipe and that sauce instead of just buying it off the shelf now as you notice throughout this video I'm actually showing you alternatives and swaps in the sense of you making them yourself.
I am such a firm firm firm believer that if you make things yourself you know exactly what you're puttin into the recipe and the ingredients that are going into the dish then there's no nasty surprises and it no hidden surprises you know exactly what you're doing and that is the best way I just want clarity in my life that's all I want I just want clarity in my life so me knowing what's going into my sauce is what I need so instead of buying bought sauce make your own sauce and also always season your Mills with herbes and spices and fresh ingredients it doesn't need to be dry it can still be very saucy saucy saucy but just make source yourself you're right don't be lazy right you may have already heard this one but I would throw it in there anyway so cereal it's convenient it's easy but it's also very very very sugary so instead of having cereal for your breakfast make yourself a bowl of oats it's high in fiber it will keep you fuller for longer and it's so easy to make.
I cannot express that you can make overnight oats you can put your oats in your microwave you can add fresh strawberries bananas whatever your heart desires just go absolutely bachelor crazy with it you can do what you want but seriously don't just opt for a bowl of cereal because of the convenience E it's so high in sugar some of them you can also buy some nice and sugary ones but the nice ones are always the sugary ones you know the ones that you crave in the middle of the night so instead of opting for that get yourself some oats nice big oats in your system so yeah get yourself survivors so this food swap like it hurts my soul a bit but I'm gonna give you this swap because I love cookies wait I love cookies so much like you don't understand they're everywhere.
I go however I cannot be in cities all the time however often I want is just it's just enough so instead what I have started to do is instead of always opting for cookies I don't even know why I buy if you don't buy something it's out of sight out of mind so tip number one just don't buy cookies unless you really want them you know but if I have cookies there always have dark chocolate and when I go for dark chocolate always go for like 85% to 90% dark chocolate similar to this one and I literally use this as a swap to a cookie couple of squares it actually really helps I know it sounds silly because you're like cozy just eat before down cooking and trust me your girl baby in that cookie but I'm just saying an alternative and a good swap would be just having a couple squares of dark chocolate high in antioxidants and you know what it's just a little bit of a better swap so instead of cookies and instead of really doughy sweet you sugary processed stuff a bit of good dark chocolate is what you need next what we're gonna be talking about it's concentrated juices now in the morning a lot of people tend to have orange juice however it's not always freshly squeezed I mean.
I don't know who in God's name has time to be squeezing seven oranges every single morning to get their vitamin C in but listen girl can you come and squeeze my own just for me seriously because angle no time right now but instead of going for concentrated sugary juices a great alternative in the morning and a good swap would be just some lemony water and try and use a metal straw because you know the acid in your tea if you don't want to be messing up your teeth so honestly I don't drink anything else but water and squash and what I mean by squash is the concentrate that you add into your water to give it a bit of flavor or I add lemon and some cucumber in my water it just keeps me so hydrated majority of the time your body doesn't actually want the sugary concentrated drinks it's your mind your body actually just wants to be hydrated so make sure that you are giving yourself the hydration it needs so in the morning kick start your day with some water and lemon as opposed to just a really sugary concentrated orange juice unless.
You're squeezing it fresh stay away from the concentrate cons no lethal this next swap is one that has helped me so much it's going to be a bit personal but you know what with we're free and open here so I have moved from white bread to whole-grain breads and the reason being it's because there's so much more high in fiber and it's just helping your girl out you know or I need all the fiber in the world because listen my gut and my bowels but they're just thanking me thank the load upstairs they're just thanking me it's personal buying of but seriously just having a bit more whole grain and my system having a bit more high fiber bread it's really really truly helped me so that little swap that I made it's not a severe swap.
I'm not telling you to cut out bread or carbs or anything like that I don't think you should be cutting out any food group in my personal opinion but by making a switch and a small alternative and a swap it's really helped with my also my digestion and my fibre levels as well so that's a little healthy swap that you can opt for like I said I really am firm believer that foods shouldn't be labeled good and bad I think when you start labeling things it's like a relationship you know you start labeling in your relationship in your life oh my god is this my chats you we're not girlfriend/boyfriend it's just too much just avoid labeling good and bad but just find that happy medium in the middle so for example if you're always grabbing a bag of chips and crisps in the UK chips if you're in the US and you're always munching them down while she's sitting there watching Netflix it's just going to be a bit much it's covered in oil majority of chips and crisps are fried unless you get the baked ones but it's just a bit much instead of swap an alternative would be maybe some popcorn come in and have some with me ah she lies good judge did you fire always my dog knew you would be be oh yeah some popcorn just a bit of a best one when staying into the region of snacks here and same saying you know sweetie I love sweets.
I love sour candy I love like anything salary on my oh you know you get oh and then you're like always nice sour then sweet I love it however like I said too much of anything it's just a bit overwhelming it's a bit too much for you go so instead another alternative and swap would be instead of just binging on sweets and as much sweets as your heart desires a great alternative a swap would be some dried fruit and nuts I love dried mango I love dried apricots.
I loved almonds Brazil nuts cashew nuts pecan nuts pistachios you name it I like nuts but yeah just it's just a better alternative and you know like I said these swaps are things that I've swapped it and alternated and they're read they really really truly helped me because what I started to realize was it would get to like mid-afternoon and I would have a massive come down because I'd be working all morning and then I get a come down to mid-afternoon I'd need like this boost so I would always grab some sugary sweets or some crisps and chips and blah blah blah that's what I thought my body wanted but it was actually more mental it's because it was a convenient easy snap to opt for so by me making a swap and a change and grabbing dried fruit and nuts something that's a bit more high in fat especially with almonds and Brazil nuts it helped my energy levels much much more and I it wasn't because I needed sugar and processed snacks.
I actually just needed more energy for more nutritional brace dense food so that's another thing to bear in mind another food swap is so simple you can literally have access to this absolutely anywhere you can use some cinnamon some stevia or even some raw honey as a postive processed sugar I absolutely love using cinnamon in my coffees I would say use it in my bacon but your girl don't bake all right I don't bake I cook I'm not a baker so honestly cinnamon it's an amazing spice I love this and then you've got some you got some Sevilla as well or you can use some war honey I want to show you something so recently.
I came back from Athens my my auntie's live in Athens and my auntie has had a villa and she has her own like be mind thing you like be thingy going on there so there's some honey in here this is raw from her bee farm and they just put some lavender in there as well so this is a lavender and honey mix and t's so so nice I have a teaspoon every single morning don't ask me why I just o and I absolutely love it so yeah sort f uses sugar there's always a little bit of a better option but like I said if you fancy a bit of sugar then have a bit sugar but I'm just letting you know there's some better options out there so that is it your healthy little food swaps I really hope you enjoyed this video you know what I always say this and I will always say this on this channel anywhere food is not your enemy honestly food not good it's not bad I need you to actually understand that food is not your enemy it is your best friend you will not see results if you completely deprive yourself or you will not see results if you think bulken is just eating as much rubbish as you possibly can to gain the most amount of weight it's about healthy sustainable lifestyle with the relevant meals and nutrition in your system.
