Here's why these 8 don't make my regular rotation: 🥑Products with avocado oil - Recent testing has found some avocado oils can be oxidized or mixed with other oils. I'm choosing EVOO-based products instead. 🌿Plant-based proteins — Many meat alternatives are ultra-processed with refined oils, additives, gums + long ingredient lists. ☕️"Protein" coffee - Often a highly processed combo of protein powders (which we don't know the quality of - many contain heavy metals), sweeteners, gums + flavorings. 🥛Oat milk - Pure sugar. Many brands contain added oils, gums + sugars. 🍣Sushi — It can mean exposure to higher-mercury fish and raw fish often carry parasites. 🥣Oatmeal — Oats can have glyphosate residues, so sourcing matters to me. My exception is One Degree Organic Foods sprouted oats, which are third-party tested for glyphosate and carry a BioChecked Non-Glyphosate Certified seal. 🥓Bacon — Processed meat is classified as carcinogenic to humans by the lARC, with the strongest evidence linking it to colorectal cancer. 🫐Smoothie bowls - Some can pack a LOT of fruit, juice, sweeteners + granola into one bowl, creating a major sugar hit without enough protein, fat or fiber to balance it out. #cancersurvivor #cancer #cancerrecovery #health #healthy
